    That one character you just hate

    Cloud. I can deal with Mario, Falcon, Link, Bayo and Sonic. But something inherent about Cloud, even beyond his dumb frame data/hitboxes, makes my blood boil sometimes. I knew from the instant I saw his trailer he was going to be stupid good (possibly on purpose) so that all the FG players...

    "Brother from another MOTHER". Lucas Smash Ultimate Discussion thread.

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=733o521fbdE In Chrom's character trailer, we see Lucas' fair, which in 60 FPS mode appears to come out on frame 7, maybe 8. For reference, in Smash 4 it comes out on frame 9. I don't know how the animation compares to Smash 4, so maybe he has some extra frames...

    What do you think of the new art style?

    There's a lot of work to be done. Mario Odyssey looked a lot different a couple months before release afaik. There's a few places where it looks a bit unpolished, but overall I think the art direction is PERFECT. There's this weird desaturated-but-not color palette that I've studied a bit that...

    Pre-Release The Transition: New Mechanics, Re-works, Balance Changes Thread

    "floatier than sm4sh, slow, caters to casuals" You wot m8. In general, characters have much less landing lag and cooldown. Also, can someone confirm that Shulk's nair moves much faster? I'm like 95% sure it's almost twice as fast.

    Work In Progress SWF Community Voted Tier List - 3.0 COMPLETE

    It's not every stock no, but being gimped is a huge problem for Lucas imo. The main reasons for this being how long PKT takes to initiate the hitbox, its ability to be easily rammed through and resulting in Lucas being spiked, and zair's extended hurtbox. Yes, Lucas can stall with magnet or...

    Shulk's Sliding Forward Smash

    Shulk doesn't have the best range in the game though. Not even on fsmash.

    Work In Progress SWF Community Voted Tier List - 3.0 COMPLETE

    :4ryu:+1 generally good damage output, intangibility on recovery means he's hard to gimp for most characters, gets the option to combo into kill moves with low-commital moves like his tilts, and good movement. Even if I think he's kinda bad in a defensive position and doesn't do too well against...

    How many of you Lucas mains have actually played Mother 3?

    This is kind of blasphemous for me to say, but quite honestly I hated everything about Mother 3 except for the story/characters/humor. The actual gameplay was gruelling for me to endure. I hated how grinding worked, and just how much you had to grind to beat anything boss-wise. I had to stop at...

    is it me or is it dead in here?

    Well, I know it would help get your questions answered if you used punctuation more often. <_< In all seriousness though, I really hope it picks up soon, especially since 1.1.5 came out and nerfed the long-standing #1 of Smash 4. I realize people will flock to Bayonetta, but at the same time, I...

    Having some trouble with certain match-ups

    The most important thing is to play Lucas like Lucas. Constantly mix up your approach options, or just don't approach and throw a safe move out like retreating zair/fair/PK fire, FH dair, etc. I also find mixing up fullhop aerials with shorthop ones helps, especially given how mobile Lucas is in...

    B-air into u-air?

    I figured this out the other week. low % Dthrow to bair spike > uair > uptilt > whatever is godlike. People sleep on up air, it's a REALLY good move and I don't think its small hitbox is that big of a handicap considering what it does.

    Do People Ditto You On For Glory?

    I don't mind playing dittos, even if the opponent is salty, as long as they don't try to disrespect me in some way, ex: I SD or something happens in really awful lag and they taunt and say "u suck" "rekt" "git gud" and then leave... Which is like 90% of the time on FG dittos or not, but still...

    Data Phrygia's Notebook - Lucas Matchup Discussion

    I can see Bayonetta and Corrin being at worst managable-but-annoying/requiring tons of patience, but Cloud still bothers me. I play Shulk too, so it's like a literally better Shulk in every way. Like, Speed monado Shulk without the damage drawbacks and actual multihit moves to kill spotdodges...
