Throws cannot be escaped once started, with the exception of [[Donkey Kong]]'s [[forward throw|cargo throw]], and {{SSBM|Kirby}}'s forward and back throws in ''Melee''. Throws also grant a short period of [[invincibility]] to the thrower when started, as a measure of protection against any bystanders. In ''Melee'' and ''Brawl'', this invincibility has a set duration of 8 [[frame]]s for every throw, which is increased to 18 frames in ''Smash 4''. In ''Smash 64'' and ''Ultimate'', throw invincibility is instead specific to each throw; in the latter game, it lasts from frame 1 all the way until the frame the opponent is thrown. | Throws cannot be escaped once started, with the exception of [[Donkey Kong]]'s [[forward throw|cargo throw]], and {{SSBM|Kirby}}'s forward and back throws in ''Melee''.

A general rule of throws is that characters that rely on supernatural powers, such as [[Ness]], [[Mewtwo]], [[Zelda]], and [[Lucas]], have above-average throws in strength, while those that mainly attack with swords or other weapons, such as [[Link]], [[Marth]], and [[Sephiroth]], have below-average throws in strength | A general rule of throws is that characters that rely on supernatural powers, such as [[Ness]], [[Mewtwo]], [[Zelda]], and [[Lucas]], have above-average throws in strength, while those that mainly attack with swords or other weapons, such as [[Link]], [[Marth]], and [[Sephiroth]], have below-average throws in strength. However, this often refers merely to the damage or [[knockback]] inflicted by the throws, and does not strictly leave weak throws at a disadvantage, as they tend to be useful for starting combos, and can sometimes even lead into other KO moves. | ||
Throws do not use standard [[hitbox]]es when releasing opponents, instead having a throw command with hitbox data that only affects the target of the throw, and not any bystanders. Throw releases also usually inflict no [[hitlag]] (thus being immune to [[smash directional influence]]), nor have any associated graphical or sound effects (these are instead part of the throw animation itself). However, several throws possess a hitbox before their release, such as [[Captain Falcon]] and [[Link]]'s, which can hit both the thrown opponent and bystanders as if it was a standard attack, effectively hitting the thrown opponent twice. Similarly, a few throws such as [[Mario]]'s back throw have '''collateral hitboxes''', which can only hit bystanders and not the thrown opponent. | Throws do not use standard [[hitbox]]es when releasing opponents, instead having a throw command with hitbox data that only affects the target of the throw, and not any bystanders.

However, the target's weight, knockback taken multiplier, and knockback resistance still affect how much knockback the throw deals. | ||
