Gimp: Difference between revisions

Falco's Down Throw is an effective gimp kill only if he grabs his opponent while he's standing on the edge of the stage. It usually works on all characters, including [[Weight|heavy]] characters. If done correctly, Falco will do a very powerful Judo Slam and quickly shoot his opponent down so far that they won't be able to recover no matter how good their [[Recovery|Recovery]] is. This is a [[sweetspot|sweetspot]] of Falco's Down Throw and will be considered a [[Meteor Smash|Meteor Smash]]. This method works on most stages except for [[Onett|Onett]], [[Big Blue|Big Blue]], [[Mute City|Mute City]], [[Brinstar Depths|Brinstar Depths]], [[Planet Zebes|Planet Zebes]] (only when acid is present), [[Icicle Mountain|Icicle Mountain]] , and [[Yoshi's Island|Yoshi's Island]] (only when blocks are still). There's a rare chance of failure of this method so Falco must spike his opponent or [[Edge-hog|Edge-hog]], depending on the character and the effectiveness of their Recovery. Fox can also do this but his opponent would need a lot more damage for it to work. Although most gimp kills are hard to master, Falco's gimp kill is one of the quickest, strongest, and easiest gimp kills of all. It can kill anybody at a damage percentage as low as 10%. A simpler way to do this is to [[Camping|Camp]],  and grab your opponent when you have the chance to get on the edge of the stage. Roll Dancing will come in handy.
