A '''back throw''' ({{ja|後投げ|Ato nage}}, ''Rear/back throw''; commonly abbreviated as '''b-throw''' or '''Bthrow''', and referred to as '''ThrowB''' internally) is a [[throw]] performed by tilting the [[control stick]] opposite to the direction the character is facing after having [[grab]]bed the opponent. | A '''back throw''' ({{ja|後投げ|Ato nage}}, ''Rear/back throw''; commonly abbreviated as '''b-throw''' or '''Bthrow''', and referred to as '''ThrowB''' internally) is a [[throw]] performed by tilting the [[control stick]] opposite to the direction the character is facing after having [[grab]]bed the opponent. | ||

Back throws with hitboxes consist of two or more hits on the grabbed opponent (the hitbox, then the throw), and can affect other opponents near the thrower. Additionally, some back throws may possess a '''collateral hitbox''', which affects nearby opponents but not the victim of the throw. Unless stated otherwise, all back throws have the attacker put the opponent behind themselves in some way. | Back throws with hitboxes consist of two or more hits on the grabbed opponent (the hitbox, then the throw), and can affect other opponents near the thrower.

*[[Fox]], [[Falco]], and [[Mii Gunner]]'s back throws are the only ones to release [[projectile]]s, in the form of lasers that can be [[reflect]]ed and [[absorb]]ed.

*{{SSBM|Kirby}}'s back throw in ''Melee'' causes him to functionally leave the ground, and can be used for a [[Kirbycide]]. However, it is one of the only two standard throws in the series that can be escaped without receiving external knockback (the other being his forward throw).

From ''Smash 4'', its knockback was altered giving it more knockback scaling but less base knockback, so it is better both for combos at low percents and KOing at high percents. | |||

*[[Ness]]'s back throw in all games except ''Smash 64'' is the opposite of his [[forward throw]], possessing very low base knockback, but very high knockback scaling, making it noticeably more powerful at high percentages than most other back throws.
