Sheik (SSB4)/Down throw

Hitbox visualization showing Sheik's down throw.

Overview

Sheik throws opponent on the ground, then performs an axe kick knocking the opponent up into the air. Can combo into any aerial (except down aerial) depending on opponent's DI until high percents, where opponents fly too high for her to followup. This is also her strongest throw, but does not KO until 305%.
