If you read my big scary monologue (which most prolly didn't), I go by three criteria: My own experience, videos (ranging from mid-high level playing, so I'll see what works mindgame wise, and what works spacing/tech wise), and other's input. If you want to add info, it will have to be more specific than "I keep him at bay with large range", because all characters have to deal with range, and can (unless your talking about snake's nasty tilt ranges, lol jk). I don't know what you're intended purpose is from all this "aggressive" talk, but if you want to talk all the randomness you want, the lucario IRC can provide. If you want to discuss and talk more in depth the specifics of the match, I suggest you tell us what he does and what you do to counter the typical ideas. Range, like I said, is not always the ultimatum of who wins. For example, lets say you fsmash, and he shields and goes for a RAR bair, what would you do then? It is quick, has good range, and knocks good damage in, so have to have something better than mere range to answer, because range is only so good as long as it keeps the close up fight away, and if he's right there, that's not going to do you any good. Since fair is an ok option, you could use it, but only if you've spaced it so that you have already started up the animation, otherwise, you'll still eat a bair. If you shield, that too could be a good option, but the wolf can just as easily slide the bair back so that he's in his original position, and can try a different approach. The list goes on and on, but the point is, what are typical situations that have been thrown, and what a lucario of the stratified (offense, balanced, or defensive) criteria would do typically to displace, redirect, or counter the threat. All I'm saying is that it is unrealistic to give entire bias to lucario (as awesome as he is) merely for his strengths only, and the one of the ways someone gets better is to find what best negates the weaknesses.

Disagreeing with everything in bold. As is see it, that's all bull. Why do people make up these imaginary problems, then having it lead to others getting it stuck in their heads so they have the same problems?
You've probably also never fought a decent player in your life.
Sorry but the logic train left about 20 minutes ago.
Cool. I got a video on youtube, but the way I fought in it wasn't seriously. Me and a friend of mine were messing around with our 'Items in Your Favor' theory and how the game always takes one person's side at a time.
Umm... that's me....
heh... good luck mastering DI and power shielding or even landing a well placed tilt in a input delayed lag session.

okay, thanks i guess...
If you mean the official discussions, it's taking place in the stickied matchup thread. The one for the playstyle is here, as long as the information provided is valid and reasonable (and not blindly vague) then it can be posted in here and I will add it onto the original post. Make sure it's credible and relevant though.
