Lucas is way too misunderstood.

lol no not out of 5, I'm waiting for the TO to give me the official numbers and such but something like 30-40 i think, although it was anticipated there would be more. I still feel i should have done better :( but yeah i'll post it when i get the word from the TO.

Lucas' recovery is in no way shape or form the reason he falls short as a character.

We all know Lucas is low tier b/c no one uses him
Not b/c of his flaws....there are some mid and even high tiers that have more flaws than Lucas but people still use them
Two good examples Olimar and Wolf

It's more like an "every time" thing.
Except, not.
Oh, so the odd **** that happens to characters like Lucas isn't always (part of) the reason as to why low tiers are low tiers?
More like, they are used, just not that much. "Every time" was a bit of an exaggeration.

olimar and wolf have better tools to make up for their flaws.

Lucas's greatest asset is that... he can live longer? OK, so you can take a beating. It would be nice if he could dish out a beating too (like snake), and it would be preferable that he could dish out a beating at the cost of a low life expectancey (olimar). Granted, he can be used as a tank in doubles.

Lucas can live pretty long, I've experienced that.

And agreed Levitas, Lucas is a ****ing beast in doubles. There is no doubt about that.

He is. As a matter of fact, when i started playing Brawl (My first Smash. Bros game, never played Melee or 64) I picked Ike, and said to myself "Ugh that kid must suck, who'd want to play with him". Then as I grew bored, I tried Falco, and he was alright. I could kill anybody on Wi-Fi because I had been training with a slow character. Then I became bored again, and I tried Lucas out of curiosity. It is only then that I realized he has more potential than most characters. It's too bad no one plays as Lucas in tournaments.

Lucas has been my main since i got brawl. i played ness in SSBM and in SSB, link is always my main 2nd.

That said, i chose ness because i loved the earthbound series, and Mother 3 was awesome- so as soon as i saw Lucas i made him mine. After playing him for awhile, i love his playstyle, and he is a fitting main for me, but he has many weaknesses that are easy to exploit. Im not about to drop him for anyone- but every character has flaws, and the game is about showing your enemy his weaknesses and pwnifying him. And PKT2 is the ultimate n00b pwn3difier.

Sounds a little weird the way you said that ._.
I picked up lucas when i didnt know sh** about this game. I would camp and spam PKT. Then i got better and then i found this place the end.
