[[File:Pikmin_thrown_c-stick.jpg|thumb|262px|The C-stick tactic being used on a [[Red Bulborb]] in the [[Pikmin (game)|first game]]]]
The '''C-stick tactic''' is a strategy in the first two [[Pikmin series|''Pikmin'' titles]] on the [[Nintendo GameCube]] that allows [[Pikmin family|Pikmin]] to be thrown more quickly. It makes killing many types of enemies, such as mature [[Bulborb]]s, easier, quicker and safer.
 
It involves swarming the Pikmin that are under the [[Leader|captain]]'s control towards him, keeping the group centered around him, and rotating {{button|gcn|C}} as necessary. While doing this, rapidly pressing the {{button|gcn|A}} button will throw Pikmin more quickly.
 
The strategy works by removing the need to wait a fraction of a second for a Pikmin to approach the pilot to be thrown. It saves very little time on a single throw, but can make a significant difference when throwing large groups. In ''[[Pikmin 2]]'', Pikmin take less time to move into position anyway, so this strategy makes less difference than in ''[[Pikmin (game)|Pikmin]]''.
 
In the ''[[New Play Control!]]'' games, a different strategy must be employed, because the equivalent of the C-stick is a button, {{button|wii|Paddown}}. Seeing as it is possible to aim the cursor independently DK wanna banana????
