Lucina: Match-Up Discussion (UPDATE: Kirby!)

[CHOMPY]

I know I'm requesting you guys to play online, but I feel like we should have a "crew" battle to be able to determine the matchup. The more matches we have between Pit vs. Lucina, the better idea we have. In other words, if first Pit player losses to Lucina, that Lucina player stays with that many stocks, depending on how many they finished off the match.

If you guys want to do either a 3 on 3 or 5 on 5, that would be awesome! That way, we can make them feel like they are part of the discussion. Also, after every match, each player should input their thoughts on how they felt about the match.

Later, i'll input my thoughts on how the matchup goes.


Just a food for thought!

 

[Locuan]

I would definitely do that if possible.

 

[CHOMPY]

Heres our team.

Pit
@ CHOMPY (Captain)
@ bur
@ChaoticRoy
@GrayFox8983
@Fractals

Hopefullly, we can get a good connection!

 

[Locuan]

Well I've been trying to find some of the Lucina mains to play. @EternalFlame, @ Emblem Lord , @Tasya, @ LIQUID12A , @ CherubiKnighT , @ CommanderRin are you guys willing to participate? If there is anyone else you can think of let me know.

3DS plays are unreliable, so I'll have to pass.

Seriously working hard to get a Wii U.

They all said they are willing to participate in the crew battle. Let me know who you want to send out first and we will do the same thing.

We still have to confirm our guys. I'm the only one confirmed at the moment. CommanderRin said he would be fine after Monday so that's two people for now. We would need three more.

 

[bur]

I'll go first for our crew
My NID is c13fairy

I'll be participating on the Falchion's side (Lucina).

If it's today, I can join in at around 8pm (give or take a little).

 

[ZFallen]

I would play, but I'm in Australia...so connection will probably not be good

 

[Locuan]

@ bur are you able to play tonight?

Additionally, I have the ability to record these matches. So if you guys want let me know and I'll join your games and record them to have the full crew battle in order to analyze.

That'd be a great idea!

I support this.

I'm also available today so send me in whenever @ Locuan

 

[Shaya]

Is this WiiU or 3DS? It's possible I could play in either.

 

[Locuan]

It's Wii U. And awesome!

@ CHOMPY we have our last member.

 

[Shaya]

I'll be out from 5.30pm PST onwards tonight though. A late-ish night thing could work.

 

[MDAVE]

Good luck to all of you! CHOMPY, need any help with creating the brackets?

 

[CHOMPY]

@ MDAVE if you can create the bracket, that would be awesome, so we can get things rolling!

 

[CommanderRin]

So we're starting today?

 

[Locuan]

I haven't heard from @ bur yet. Once he replies we will start.

 

[CHOMPY]

@ Locuan are you on Facebook? Maybe it would be easier to gather everyone in the chat room group, so we can all communicate on there.

 

[CommanderRin]

Oh, sounds efficient, let's try this.

 

[FullMoon]

Not to interrupt anything, but we in the Greninja boards are currently going to discuss the Lucina MU, so if any of you could give your opinion on the MU it would be great http://smashboards.com/threads/mast...cina-shulk-sword-mii-2-17-2-23.369356/page-12

 

[Locuan]

I'll let you know later on in the day.

 

[Freelance Spy]

I'll let you know later on in the day.

Mind setting up a separate one with customs on? I'm trying to see what MUs get easier with/without them... Crew battles seem like a perfect idea for data analysis.

I just want customs to be legalized for good, I'm hoping having MU changing options on the MU boards will help with that.

 

[bur]

@ Locuan an128 I'm ready if you are.
you wouldn't happen to be online now would you?

 

[Locuan]

@ Locuan an128 I'm ready if you are.
you wouldn't happen to be online now would you?

Yes I was online not long ago. I can get online again. What stage would you like to play on?

 

[MDAVE]

Got a bracket, but it has some errors. According to the bracket, first to battle are these people;

GrayFox vs CherubiKnighT
ChaoticRoy vs Emblem Lord
Shaya vs Chompy

 

[bur]

@ Locuan ive always been a fan of battle field. im adding you nid now

 

[Locuan]

Alright I'm going online.
EDIT: I'm hosting the room. Join whenever you are ready.
EDIT2: Reporting win by Locuan, 1 stock left on me. Great game @ bur ! I capitalized on your forward smashes quite a bit, are tilts a better option?

 

[bur]

Yeah tilts are for sure a better option in most cases.
I can't believe it took me that long to hit you when i broke your shield! xD
but great game to you as well.
I feel like lucina makes it difficult for pit to land when he's above her (after a usmash or utilt)

@ Locuan If you're not busy and the next person in the crew battle isn't available, do you want to play some more games?

 

[Locuan]

Yea, you broke my shield and didn't capitalize! That was something you should have taken advantage of. Also I don't know who goes next. @ CHOMPY who would be the second person on the Pit side? Also sure we can keep playing

On another note, I merged your posts, careful with double posting since its against Smashboards Terms of Service and Rules. When you need to add more info to a previous post use the edit button

 

[Saclam]

Sigh if only I didn't have work today I would participate,oh well if this is going on right now then good luck to both teams.

If this crew battle becomes a thing in the future I would love to take part of it,gotta need all the matchup knowledge I can get.

 

[Locuan]

Great games @ bur ! I learned a lot. Also, I would like to add some advice to your play. You should use f-throw more when I'm at high percents. Especially when on the ledge as it is a kill move. Also, you tried to d-throw > u-air after I was at high percents. It won't connect at those percentages so go for another option. On another note, while I did not have the dexterity to capitalize on this, I was able to predict around 90% of your upperdash arms. You always do this run back and forth that signals your upperdash arm is coming. I recommend mixing it up.

 

[Freelance Spy]

So if you can send your pit/lucina players my way I'd like to conduct an experiment with customs and how they affect MUs...
