Possibally his down throw because it leads to bair combos...
And his up throw leads to his aerial pressure with bombs and uair...
foward throw is good for...spacing and knocking off the stage. Might lead to zair.
back throw same as foward except more difficult?

It doesn't matter. Then can shield/ DI out of it.

Its mainly a mind game. Like doing a grounded up-B after the A attacks from the AAA combo.

up b works because people forget it exists, it lasts forever, and once someone is committed to doing something it can be hard sometimes to go "Oh ****, didn't see that coming" and stop. Its also works because there are those roll addicts who just don't learn.

I have questions.

How is TL on brinstar and RC?
Dtilt/ftilt seem pretty slow and the range is somewhat decent I guess, any valuable uses?
Should I keep jump tap on for up b out of shield?

Many use tap jump off. The fact that it might save you from a horrible mistake of doing an up b aerial is worth it. Up b can still be done out of shield without tap jump.

As for tilts, they can work alright in rare situations in combination with other moves. But for the most part the only worth while tilt is up tilt.

Do toon links throw their bombs with the cstick or A plus the joystick? I've been using A since the beginning of brawl. Which one offers better control in most situations?

I use the c-stick, it doesn't really matter. Controls don't matter one bit, as long as its comfortable to you.
Except in the situations where an AT only works with tap jump on/off. (But TL doesn't have any of those)

its interesting because a c stick bomb throw forward in the air while di'ing backward with the control stick allows toon link to cover a good distance backward, I would assume it would be good for spacing. On the other hand, if you travel backwards I would assume you might not be able to capitalize much if the bomb hits. :urg:

On the ground I just jump cancel all my throws.

I use both. I find that c-stick throws farther but I might not want to so I use one or the other depending on the situation.

Add a "

It'll make it easier for new people to notice.

Hey guys, I main Marth, just starting to get into Toon Link some. I've noticed that sometimes his dair is really fast on the way down and other times it's slower (not the floating dair, I finally figured that one out, lol). Is there any way to control/predict which of the two variations of dair you do? Thank you ahead of time for the answer.

How do I stop a Kirby from edge guarding against me? Should I hookshot it or not? I always seem to recieve an F-smash...
Don't use spin attack too early. It sounds to me like you're going above the edge and getting an F-smash in the face. Try to sweetspot the ledge, or zair for safer recovery.

I think this needs a sticky, it gets burried under too fast.
And threads are continuing to be made asking simple questions they can ask here or general info threads.
