    The Lucas Boards' QnA Thread

    Haha, don't mention it. Lucky coincidence I ran into it at the same time :) It's a good idea that it is in that spot where the falling animation occurs, but I'm not sure how too test it. If someone did manage to perfect it I would be so happy, but as Wobbuffet said, its way too precise for...

    The Lucas Boards' QnA Thread

    Oddly enough I was looking into this in training mode on Battlefield to get a better idea of how bouncing off the ledge works. While I was just mucking around I PKT2'd down towards the right-hand side of Battlefield, only to hit the ledge, bounce up, and continue upwards and left to the...

    SBR Weekly Character Discussion: Lucas

    Truth spoken. That vid of NinjaLink was great, one super impressive Lucas. Lucas should move to mid tier, its mainly his low representation, bad top tier matchups against Marth, DK, MK and GnW and grab shenanigans that keep him down. Ninjalink proves in the vid that he is a plausible and...

    Smash Back Room Weekly Character Discussions! FINAL UPDATES: Ness + Lucas. All done!!

    Lucas' Pk Thunder can gimp enemies when they're below 100%, given they have a bad enough recovery and are off stage, eg Link, Ike, Wolf

    Smash Back Room Weekly Character Discussions! FINAL UPDATES: Ness + Lucas. All done!!

    It's probably going to be both Ness and Lucas, so that the SBR could reignite the Lucas vs Ness battle. Panda has said he wanted to get the discussions finished, so why not do two similar characters (not clones), who have similar rankings on the tier list, at once? If anything, doing both at...

    100 lucas tricks (25% complete!)

    I use this as well, simply because it completely ruins the timing of someone trying to punish. Also works on the pillars in Luigi's mansion, on Skyworld, maybe others. It might work on Green Greens for the first hitbox, I think I saw someone post a video on the boards where they bair-ed through...

    100 lucas tricks (25% complete!)

    Wow, this thread exploded since yesterday. All the obvious tricks are starting to dry up. Only ones I can think of for now: 1. Purposely sourspotted bair > dair (most likely rising from a double jump) whilst offstage - The bair provides moderate-low knockback at most percentages, so that...

    100 lucas tricks (25% complete!)

    Definitely, what with tether grabbing, PKT2, zap jump, magnet pulling.... Grab release > dtilt trip > Fsmash is also a cool trick on certain characters, as well as any psi magnet combo. Dair > Dair > Footstool > Dair combos are an awesome way to rack up damage. Pk Freeze/ Pk Thunder edge...

    The Lucas Boards' QnA Thread

    I've seen a couple of vids of people playing Lucas lately and noticed that after grabbing an opponent at low percents, the Dthrow > Utilit combo was used. I normally use Dthrow > SH Uair and was wondering if Utilt is a better option, or if there are better moves to follow up a Dthrow with. I've...

    MetaMindgame Spam

    Removed, so that MMGS padawans may become stronger with the light side of the force, and retain their sanity.

    The Lucas Boards' QnA Thread

    Well, I first heard of 'pinging' on the Yoshi boards, and they used it to describe a property of Yoshi's nair, bair, jab and occasionally dair to cancel out projectile attacks without interrupting the attack animation (or not taking damage or knockback), seen here...

    The Lucas Boards' QnA Thread

    A couple of weeks ago I was just playing against CPU's for fun and found what looked like Lucas' Bair pinging a projectile attack. The attack was Lucario's Aura Sphere at 27% damage and it appeared to strike the tip of Lucas' foot when pinged, i.e. Lucas' foot pointed towards the attack the...

    Lucas mains, I need your help.

    Unfortunately, I think this is one of the two things affecting Lucas' tourney results. Lucas simply isn't as well known compared to the other characters, and those who saw him for the first time in the SSE saw him as a wimp that needed Ness' ninja skills to save him (even though he eventually...

    Celebi & Challenge Screen Questions

    I think hammers are unlocked for completeing certain challenges within the game. If you get adjacent to a locked one on the challenges screen it will tell you what you have to complete, although someone's probably made a list of all the challenges and what they unlock so you know straight away...

    Character Match-ups: Who has the best/worst?

    Completely agree. The scale worked for the different tiers is definitely suitable, although a more refined method of alotting points for advantages/disadvantages, ie, rather than 2 for large difference, 1 for small, have a more spread range, eg 5 points for 100-0 (not that there are any), 4 for...
