Smash Ace
Hey everyone, I picked up Lucario as a secondary about a week ago to take care of my bad matchups for Falco. Until today, I had only played with a couple of my casual friends, my brother, and some CPUs. Anyway, I just got back from my first smashfest playing as him, and I left with a lot of questions in mind.
I'm not too familiar with Lucario yet, and there isn't really anyone in my group that can teach me, so I'm using Smashboards and my own observations to develop my playstyle with him. Anyway, I was wondering if Lucario had potential to reward aggressive play. I'm guessing he plays more the way Falco should be played than aggro, but I just wanted everyone's thoughts of playing Lucario aggressively.
I do have to say that I really enjoyed playing as him tonight, and I can't wait to improve and learn a lot with Lucario. I'm also slightly starting to question if he has potential for me as more than a secondary. See, I don't really play Falco correctly (I have almost all his tech skill down, but I don't camp very well or for very long because I like to get in my opponent's face) and I'm trying to figure out what to do in the long run. Eventually I really want to fix my playstyle with Falco and play him the way he's at his best (just have to break some bad habits) and use Lucario as my secondary. However, if Lucario has a lot of potential to be aggressive and chase after people, I may have to reconsider that. I do know for sure that I like Lucario and all.
Also, I'm not sure how relevant this is, but Meta Knight is banned in my state. I'm sure it figures in somewhere, but with or without him, does that significantly change what Lucario can potentially do against the cast with an aggressive style?
Personally from what I've seen/tried myself, I'm guessing Lucario shouldn't be played super aggro, (and perhaps similar to Falco in some ways) but I would like to know the pros/cons to playing him aggressive.
