Sweet kills HTM.

I also noticed you got really repetitive with the ledge jumps though.

Alright, I'll try to give a good critique for you soon SNO.

And HTM, we ain't hatin'. And SNO, if you're having trouble with PKF spam, just PS it and he'll be forced to the edge.

Some of my Lucas is on there too APC.

I looked at both of yours. The only one I saw of your Lucas tho apc was against the Toon Link, which was amazing. However most of the stuff I do I picked up from fighting Tallman, except im not as good with grabs as he is.

those textures hurt my eyes >_>

i saw a couple of times that you were approaching with sh uair+jab, wouldn't be better with RAR?
too much dash attack and running grab :S
you're good at power shielding, i liked that :)
you were more aggresive vs Snake than ROB, i would do the opposite lol

lol, since these were friendlies, a lot of the dash-attacks were jokes. You see, one of my scrub friends did that like 9 times in a row against his shield when he was playing a Snake as CF, and he exploded grenades everytime. Now it's become a joke to do that.

Well for that specific video, I'd have to say that it was a pretty good lucas. They kinda left themselves open a lot and when the DK left itself open (lets say, his recovery... Lucas didn't do anything to punish. Like going for a pk thunder ledge spike since dk's recovery is failsauce. Also he seemed a little slow using moves. Well its my opinion. But overall a pretty good lucas.
(now I just need someone to critique my videos XD)

@ClausBound: nothing much to tell lol, i'd say add some sh pk fire, wavebounced or not, instead of those grounded ones, it will add some speed to your Lucas. Also, vs Link on BF, you used too many times PKT while both of you where on stage, it worked in that match, but don't make it as a habit because it won't work all the time.
@PKGod: mix up the way you recovery, you have to work on your PKT2 just to aim it better. The only thing you used while the opponent was off stage, was bair. Remember you have some good tools for gimping, like PKT and it is really same if used rigth. Vs DK, dair is waaaaay better than bair or PKT, but that's just for yout MU knowledge. It looks like you like to grab a lot, Lucas grab is bad and you have better attacks OOS, like jab or aerials, but if you land a grab, a couple of pummels won't hurt you

Hey guys I've just found something out, maybe it's been discovered before me... Anyway its kind of like a ledgebend except its on a platform and you can use most moves out of it. I'll upload it when I find someone to.

Someone loves Brinstar :D

I learned the hard way - extended hit boxes are great when they're unexpected, but don't always go for them as it leaves you amazingly vulnerable if you miss and/or the opponent predicts your move (especially with Lucas)... Assuming you were playing against the same person, you got quite lucky with a lot of those extended hitbox smashes (shouldn't expect more than 2 surprise hits per game)... Risk/reward is worse than a dash grab :D You seemed to pick that up well in your second vid against Samus, so props :D

Also, you seemed to use moves unnecessarily at times (e.g. PK Fire when they are well and truly under the stage on Brinstar)... Probably just lapses in patience or something, but it's something to work on (you seem to be quite patient for half the matches :p)

For the most part you choose the right move for the situation, just gotta get spacing and timing a bit better ^^ Also, too much roll dodging IMO - from a fellow roll dodger I can see it as a force of habit, but just try to incorporate more mix-ups in evasive techniques (even just walking/running backwards)

Oh, and don't jump into Falcon Punches :p Hope this helped a bit ^^
