When did I say I didn't land back throws near a ledge? You wrote off Mewtwo's up throw as useless because his back throw kills earlier near the ledge. In truth, both of them are useful for killing in different situations. With that said, landing grabs in neutral is a rather important part of this game and shouldn't be dismissed so quickly.
I am not saying his up throw is useless. I'm saying it is not nearly as powerful as it should be because its his defining throw, meanwhile you will be killing with back throw a lot more often and a lot earlier just because Mewtwo has better options near the ledge when guarding someone much in the same way Ness does. You talk about how landing grabs in neutral is important, meanwhile his neutral is bad.
Is anybody playing Mewtwo? :D
Nope, since he's a newer character, players have to gentlemen agreement to him. I guess cuz of his exposure? Dont really think many would be playing him anyways.
Shame, I wanted to see some high level Mewtwo action...
Add me and I'll send you my replays
jk add speed and get her replays LOL
I find it quite creepy that Mewtwo still sounds like a sinister being in Smash 3DS / Wii U. But I guess Sakurai wanted Smash 3DS / Wii U Mewtwo to be more like the one from the Kanto region, instead of the one from the Unova region. Ironically, it's the Unova Mewtwo who can Mega Evolve into Mega Mewtwo Y.
Isn't there something about multiple mewtwo's existing? Like kanto and the one from x/y being different?
There are more. The Pokemon series makes this apparent.
A Mewtwo like that probably would've been better if it Mega Evolved into Mega Mewtwo X, instead of Mega Mewtwo Y.
But...
I guess if you want to reference both X and Y, it's either one Mega Evolution or the other. Interestingly, Mega Charizard Y could've probably done the same actions as Mega Charizard X.
Classic Two never mega evolved into X either, so it wouldn't make any more sense then Y.
Mostly, it's because Mega Mewtwo X has a more masculine appearance.

@SaucyDancer would you like to play sometime? Or do you guys know of any other Australian's looking to practice/play?
My internet is absolute **** right now, sorryThere is a tournament here today, but Mewtwo is 'gentleman's agreement' here as well, which is annoying. There is no point in entering because I won't even be able to use my main. :/
Anyway, I tried some wifi last night but the lag was so bad that I literally could not even move. The signal into my room is quite weak so I might have to move my Wii-U.

@ミスティック Speed I'd still like to play you but I'll have to test out the lag more and see if I can make it better. :D

Sounds like you're questioning why it should ever be used.
It would definitely be neat if up and back throw were stronger. Ness gets the strongest kill throw in the game by far, but Sakurai seems afraid to give Mewtwo similar power.
Disable? Confusion to Shadow Ball jab lock? Pivot grab the roll on to stage?
Same thing can happen to MK's DC
No, no it definitely can't.
I believe it used to. Either way Mewtwo has it rough. Poor guy.
Not that unheard of, since pretty much every fighter's alternate trophy is different between the 3DS and Wii U versions.
I haven't really met anyone who plays Smash really. My friends will play with me for a bit, but I win most 3v1 games we play as they don't particularly follow Nintendo, and it just isn't fun for them.There is a tournament here today, but Mewtwo is 'gentleman's agreement' here as well, which is annoying.

The 'gent agreement' thing will go away on the 28th, when he;s available to everyone.
The 'gent agreement' thing is just ridiculous. You shouldn't have permission from another person to play a character. We should be able to play whomever we like. I'll be glad when it's lifted.
That happens when you fully charge any chargeable attack.
That's pretty amazing if you ask me. :oYou know, I did take a snapshot, where Mewtwo was up "against" the villains, and Rosalina came to its aid. Of course, Dedede and Dark Pit aren't actually evil, but they are rivals to Kirby and Pit respectively, so there's that.
