What is the optimal angle to DI at to live the longest from Mewtwo's up throw? I've been DIing horizontally in the direction Mewtwo isn't facing.

I've noticed you can DI left and right very slightly however the knockback on Mewtwo's up throw depends completely on the weight of the person being thrown. Even if you can DI it wouldn't matter too much.

I'd say if you're a floaty character, DI behind to make the fair followup more difficult, and if you're a fast faller, DI in front to avoid the bair off stage.

You're DI'ing properly. But honestly if you get scooped up by a Mewtwo at kill percentage, it isn't going to make much of a difference. I know I only go for the Uthrow KO unless I'm sure your DI won't save you.
