It’s a double update today, covering the aspect of special moves that can be charged, but of more interest, the Final Smash of Lucas, which to me, seems to be one of the more devistating attacks.

Before we get to Lucas (stop moaning) we’ll run though the chargable Special Moves. For those who haven’t played Smash Bros previously, some moves can be charged up, such as Link’s bow, wher the longer it’s held, the futher, faster and stronger it goes.

Other moves, like Samus’ charge shot, can be charged by just pressing B and it’ll charge by itself. It can then be stored, so you can charge it up and then in the middle of a fray, let lose a big blast.

These can be stored by either letting the charge finish, or by pressing the shield button. If you didn’t finish charging it all the way, next time you press the button, you’ll start charging from where you let off, so make sure you tap it twice if you want to shoot it early. Also, if you have fully charged it, there’s a subtle effect that’ll help you (and others!) remember it’s charged, like DK has some smoke coming out of his head when his Giant Punch is fully charged.

It gets worse before it gets better. (For those being hit I mean)
