Usage
This throw has very restrictive usage potential, and is primarily a damage dealer only. It's base knockback and launch angle make followups impossible, and it's knockback scaling is not high enough to allow it to kill efficiently. Combined with the fact that Bowser Jr. possesses a slow, but average ranged grab, this throw is not really useful in competitive play.
