The leader of the duo puts on a "No Nonsense" expression and swats the target aside, swinging their mallet like a golf club. It deals average damage for a throw, with high base knockback but very little knockback scaling. It offers no combo, damage racking, or [[Tech-chasing|tech chase]] prowess, either, making for a thoroughly unimpressive throw.

When landing a grab while [[Desyncing|desynced]], the partner can be made to buffer a smash attack as the leader throws the opponent, greatly enhancing their damage and launch power. Combining a forward throw with an [[Ice Climbers (SSBU)/Forward smash|f-smash]] turns the otherwise very weak throw into a devastating kill move, with forward-throw-forward-smash being their strongest. (While the [[Ice Climbers (SSBU)/Back throw|back throw]] variant releases opponents at a closer point to the blast zone, the forward throw variant has hitlag and a longer animation, allowing the partner climber to charge their [[Ice Climbers (SSBU)/Forward smash|f-smash]] for a moment before the throw connects and KO earlier) F-throw-f-smash's slower startup makes it easier to time, but also easier to DI.

At the edge of the stage, the leader's forward throw can put an opponent in just the right spot for the partner's [[Ice Climbers (SSBU)/Forward aerial|forward air]] to finish them off. While spiking an opponent off the stage is usually the most desirable position, converting to a [[Ice Climbers (SSBU)/Forward aerial|forward aerial]] still has its merits onstage, as with many [[Spike|spikes]], the low knockback and high hitstun can allow for easy combo extensions and even a slew of kill confirms.

While the Ice Climbers' forward throw is normally not at all worth the risk of [[Grab|grabbing]], its utility is increased tenfold with the help of a partner and some desyncing.
