I was just wondering if anyone has ever done this (or considered it?)

I did some tests on fox in training mode, and cargo uthrow (from ground) to ground upb is a true combo until at least 155% (i was going up by 5%, it started to get a bit difficult to time around 120% so above 155% might be possible). This assumes no DI.

But who WOULDN'T DI a cargo uthrow? So i did some more tests.

Regular uthrow combos until at least 114% (might go higher, but i couldnt get it to combo at 115% but i could at 114%). This would be a lot easier to trick into a person not DIing (ala puff uthrow to rest) by throwing up as soon as you grab.

From the middle of FD, this kills off the side (on no DI computer) at 100% (with cargo uthrow, ~95% for regular uthrow) and before that it leads to either the fox not being able to recover or at least an easy edgeguard.

btw, all % before grab.

edit:: just tested falco real fast, looks like ~170% for cargo uthrow and 120% for regular uthrow.

pretty sure they can shine jump out of it well before that amount of damage, but I'm not certain.
no, maybe you didnt understand, i went into training mode, did the throw, and then upbed and the combo meter showed 2. this means that the upb hit during the stun of the throw.

I do it at low percents then chase to regrab and UAir combos. If they somehow survive, I'll usually finish them off at higher percents by doing UThrow to Up+B.

Joe, look back at the MLG videos of Bum. He does it in the vids of him vsMew2king and I think PC and Killafox as well.

It's too good against fast-fallers, I was actually doing it today at a local tourney.
