The New Back Throw

[Octagon]

Did anyone else notice that the back throw has increased knockback? I was using Ness in for glory and it seemed like his new back throw kills earlier than before. I may be wrong, just wanted to confirm...

I'm not 100% sure about the changes made to Ness (if any) but it feels like the knock back has been increased. I'm killing at roughly 110%, and the low 100's for light characters.

It's been tested that Back Throw has not been changed. Also, there is no possible reason for Ness to be buffed. Please do legitimate tests via comparing both versions instead of "it feels like".

 

[Noa.]

Please post in any of the six other threads about the patch, instead of making a new thread.

Having played ~1300 ness matches in for glory total, I can say it's no different

It is normal for Fox to get killed at 83% at the edge of FD with back throw?

With terrible DI, yes.

With terrible DI, yes.

Well with DI he dies at 84% so it's about right.

I'm going to lock this thread, since we already have another that details Ness' changes.

Please leave any discussion regarding 1.0.6 Ness changes to this thread here (http://smashboards.com/threads/1-0-6-ness-post-findings-questions-here.399132/). Thanks!
