Overview

Wolf throws the opponent below himself and slashes him/her in a similar fashion to his down aerial. Considered Wolf's best throw, as it hits opponents at a very low diagonal angle in front of him, and can chain opponents until high percentages. Due to its semi-spike angle, it can be teched relatively early, and often requires a hard read to be chained effectively. Certain super-heavyweights can tech the throw as soon as they are released, however, making the throw less effective on extremely heavy opponents. One of this move's more scary aspects is that it can chain grab any character below 50%, even Jigglypuff, due to its low launch angle. This move can lead into an offstage down aerial meteor smash near the edge on certain characters. If not facing the edge, it can lead into a Wolf Flash if the opponent DI's upwards and they are at the correct percent. Deals 12% damage, very high for a throw, bolstering this throw's damage racking capabilities. Overall, one of the best chain throws in the game, and it sees its fair share of use in the metagame.
