Favorite Throw (with your main)

    I'd make a favorite throw thread, but that is just way too difficult for me because I have so many throws that I like. I think everybody has at least one throw with their main that makes them feel really good when they land it because it looks so damn cool.

    For me, that throw is Jacky's Sadistic Hanging Knee ([4][6][P][+][G]). How about everyone else?

    For Brad it's his Neck Catch [6][P][+][G]. Against a wall it can lead to over 100 points of damage.

    Vanessa's hook(?) into hit throw (OS 43P+K,P+G) was one of the two motivations for me to learn how to use her.

    I main Wolf, so I'm spoiled for choice.
    In terms of:
    Best looking throw: Chest Chops against the Wall. It's just hilarious, especially with his 'YEAH' animation

    Most satisfying to land: Burning Hammer. No explanation necessary.

    Most useful (IMO): 4,4+P+G, Slip Behind or something? It seems to catch a lot of people, and then leads into a three way guessing game, and each option can do good damage. I use this a lot and switch it up with other long range moves.

    Favorite throw= I love his 64P+G against the wall where he just boots them and then catches them into a rolling throw. Very satisfying to land in a fight. I also like his crouching grabs, especially his 3P+G throw where he backhands them, spins off to their side, and just tosses them.

    6P+G with Pai against Taka is by far the funniest thing I have ever witnessed in a game.

    They took all of Lau's throws away and he's left with boring crap [​IMG]

    But if I had to pick one of them that's left, it would be his [6][P]+[G] when Lau's back is to the wall.

    This.

    Also, Lion's [4][6][P][+][G] near a wall can lead to a 131 damage combo, which is pretty darn neat, too.

    This.

    Until my opponent demonstrates an ability to escape it, it's all i'm going to use.

    Chibiaya mentioned this already, and i agree. Lion's [4][1][2][3][6][P]+[G] is beautiful.

    for Wolf, my favorites are Burning Hammer ([8][4][2][6][P]+[G]) and the F5 ([8][6][2][4][P]+[G])

    for Taka, [4][1][2][3][6][P]+[G] and [6][3][2][1][4][P]+[G]

    My main is Brad. In terms of damage, none of his throws are great, but IMO his cool-looking throws are his left side throw (the multi-kick), [6][6][P]+[G], and his wall throw. I learned (thanks to Libertine) that his clinch > [6][P]+[G] throw is good when near a wall because you can combo after it. It's also good for ring-outs.

    Although I don't main Lion, I agree that his HCF throw is sick. I want to see someone do that in real life. I think Kage's half fence throw deserves a mention too.

    As a Sarah player, landing her [4][1][2][3][6][P]+[G] from Flamingo>Step is rewarding as all hell. The only real way to land it is to have your opponent sufficiently scared enough from Flamingo stance to stand there long enough for me to break this out...

    Oh so sweet...

    Also, I hate Wolf, but I think his wall throw where he slaps you across the chest about 10 times is pretty friggin funny...
