Overview

Captain Falcon performs a quick swipe with the arm facing towards the camera. Despite being somewhat slow for a grab in terms of startup, the utility of his throws make it an important part of his gameplay, especially with down throw for combos, or back throw for killing. Falcon also has a considerable slide during dash and pivot grabs, although this can lead to the grabs missing if he is too close to the opponent. Otherwise, very valuable to Captain Falcon's gameplay.
