A gimp kill is a very low-percent kill that can put a really large swing on the outcome of a match. Fox's Shine spike , Marth's d-tilt and spike, and Falco's Down Throw are very effective for gimp kills, and Marth's game in particular has become very conducive to a variety of gimp kills recently with the new generation of pros such as Mew2King and KoreanDJ. Gimp kills range from large knockback moves, spikes, edge-guarding, as well as various other techniques. Gimp kills are most effective on characters with low vertical and/or slow recoveries, like Link and Donkey Kong.
Falco's Down Throw is an effective gimp kill only if his opponent is near the edge of the stage. It usually kills most characters except for characters such as the Ice Climbers. If done correctly, Falco will hold his opponent while he or she is in the air, do a very powerful Judo Slam and quickly throw his opponent down so far that they won't be able to recover no matter how good their Recovery is. This will be considered a Meteor Smash. This barely works on Bowser due to his weight so Falco must accompany his down throw with a spike.
