The f-throw shown on the left is done on an edge, and produces more vertical knockback than the one on the right

Captain Falcon slams the opponent to the ground in front of himself, dealing 11% damage and knocking them up and forward slightly. This throw later became his down throw in Melee and Brawl. It is Captain Falcon's main combo starter, along with his up smash and aerials - for a throw, it has very low knockback, allowing it to lead into an up aerial or a forward aerial either to rack up damage or start a combo. The most notable combo started with this throw is forward throw -> a string of up aerials -> Falcon Dive. Overall, an excellent move that is used commonly in high level Captain Falcon play.
