Mario (SSB)/Back throw

Overview

The hitbox of Mario's b-throw.

Mario grabs the opponent by the legs, swings them multiple times, and then throws them back. It is a fairly standard back throw, dealing 16%, having high knockback and being a reliable KO move. It can KO Mario at 124% at the center of Dream Land and at 91% when used at the ledge. The throw is rather slow, although it has a collateral hitbox while Mario is swinging his opponent, which deals 10% to bystanders. This hitbox is not particularly powerful although it does grant Mario some protection while performing the throw. Considered Mario's second most useful KO move, behind his up smash.
