Diddy Kong (SSB4)/Down throw

Hitbox visualization showing Diddy Kong's down throw.

Overview

Diddy Kong throws the opponent behind him. The throw has relatevly low knockback and low endlag which allows it to reliably combo into his aerials, especialy into his up aerial, which was dubbed as the "Hoo-Hah".

They did nerf it in balance patches by increasing his knockback and making his angle worse, but it always remained a pretty solid combo throw.
