| A '''throw''' is an attack, performed while [[grab|grabbing]] the target, that ends the grab. Throws appear in both [[Super Smash Bros.]] and [[Super Smash Bros. Melee|Melee]]. In Super Smash Bros., two types of throws can be performed by pressing left or right on the [[control stick]] when grabbing the enemy. In Melee, the player can also press up or down on the control stick, triggering two other throws. | |
| | |
| A general rule of throws is that the characters that rely on magical or psychic powers ([[Lucario]], [[Ness]], [[Mewtwo]], [[Zelda]], and [[Lucas]]) have better throwing abilities than characters that don't.

| Throws in Super Smash Bros. are usually attacks of high [[knockback]], suited to [[knock-out|knocking out]] enemies or send them off-stage.
| |
| | |
| == In Super Smash Bros. Melee ==
| |
| | |
| In Melee, by contrast, throws are rarely powerful attacks (with a few exceptions, such as [[Ness (SSBM)|Ness]]' [[back throw]] and [[Mewtwo]]'s back and up throws). However, many throws have the capacity to [[combo]] into subsequent attacks, including [[grab]] (repeated use of throw to grab combos are known as [[chain grab]]s).
