Some states may make throwing the canister unreliable, like Valkyr's Hysteria, which lets you pick up the canister but your chances of being able to throw it when you need to are iffy. So it's best to make sure you're ready for the throw during the rather brief time frame given.

It also helps a lot that the spawn locations and order of the canisters do not change, so you can get a pretty good feel for mob movement and where to gather them in a crowd if you take the time.

(Or you can just ace it on the first try like the amazing god you are, if that applies to you.)
