    How to sweet spot from below

    With no context the title of this article looks very suspicious.

    Working on a Guide! - I need your help

    Dtilt: good button in neutral. reasonably safe, fast startup, great followup potential. gives low profile while crouch canceling so it beats a lot of options (think falcon nair). can be spaced on shield. easy option to choose for a low commitment edgeguard. excellent combo tool low-mid% as it...

    Lucario vs. Fox match-up

    It'll always be uthrow at low%. If you DI in they will utilt you and get a free followup. If you DI in front and SDI the jab or dtilt into usmash that's coming then you'll make his life much harder. If they utilt in that situation you'll have time to shield and get out (assuming your DI is down...

    Lucario vs. Fox match-up

    I personally like PS2 a lot as Lucario. I think Fox can abuse the top platform far more than Lucario can on stages like Battlefield or DL64. If you can Powershield/Nair every projectile you'll be advantaged. Fox can abuse the room with his dashdance far more than Lucario can, so the more room...

    Lucario vs. Fox match-up

    You want to avoid FD as Lucario has a similar punish game to Marth vs you if there are no platforms involved. You want room to run around and don't want to get stuck on the edge of any stage if you buffer a roll or are forced to tech. Lucario also suffers being able to kill at high % out of...

    My little hiatus is over, picking him back up. I'll write some stuff up for move applications today at work.

    Turn on debug mode to see the grab box, should let you know more about it.

    Turnaround B's For More Combo Options?

    So when you reverse your momentum the input is to press :GCB::GCR: within 4 frames of each other. To do a turnaround you do :GCR::GCB: instead, with a very slight delay between the two. I'd say practice it out of a fullhop without any ASC's or anything involved to make it easy. If you get a...

    Working on a Guide! - I need your help

    I started playing in 2.5 towards the end of it. I'll try to recap the way I remember it. Patch numbers may not be accurate. 2.5 - Best recovery in the game. Could up-b and wallcling after it, and then up-b again. Could expend aura to air dodge too. Worst shield in game as it was the size of...

    Working on a Guide! - I need your help

    Well. I played him in 3.5 and have since lost faith. I did plan on writing a guide that was very extensive, much like this looks to be and I can appreciate that. I was shooting for the stars I think and wanted to have gfy examples of each application of a move, such as [usmash 2 hits -> opponent...

    3.6 lucario discussion

    I see his playstyle becoming more focused on Force Palms. ASC pressure got nerfed, DT intangibility got nerfed, everything can be grabbed now (though admittedly I had no idea it was even grab invulnerable). FP accounts for most of this and actually was involved in our only framesafe shield...

    what is your ideal "4.0" lucario?

    Would they make his aerials faster to compensate? @Podoboo That sounds sick @jack.f

    Holding L in mid air as Lucario

    You're right @Jelinek, IPK uses the normal method. I'm cool.
