Rock Throw
Rock Throw is the neutral special for Hilda.
Overview[edit | edit source]
Hilda throws a rock at the opponent. Inputting a direction allows the rock to be arched. When the rock hits the floor, it will not immediately disappear, allowing Hilda to pick it up and use it as an item.
There are four different rocks, each dealing different damage and knockback:
| Rock Type | Damage | KO % | Chance |
|---|---|---|---|
| Rock | 5% | 999% | 40% |
| Jagged Rock | 10% | 250% | 30% |
| Troll Rock | 20% | 150% | 25% |
| Pebble | 1% | 55% | 5% |
Origin[edit | edit source]
Rocks are common minerals found in real life. In history, they have been used in conjunction with a slingshot, although the damage output is generally really weak.
A Troll Rock appeared in "Chapter 5: The Troll Rock," in which a baby troll rock was mistakenly taken by David as part of his rock collection.
The pebble is a reference to the Biblical story of David and Goliath, in which a small pebble was able to take down a mighty giant, hence it's high knockback.
Ironically, Hilda is shown to have a distaste for throwing rocks at creatures, shown in "Chapter 3: The Bird Parade."
