    Are you still in Israel? (I think it was Israel) I haven't been able to play at all for the last few months so I'm probably super rusty.

    Once I get a good playstyle of a char down they really get fun. So alongside Lucas and Ness I've been known to use Gunner, DHD and Bowser Jr, but I also enjoy Mewtwo, Marth (although I can't play him well at all lel), Yoshi, etc. That group will grow bigger over time, too.

    Hey Luco,, nice to meet you! I'm from Sydney as well and I main Lucas. I'm also new to the Smash scene. When you become active again is it okay if we can have some friendlies at a tourney or at a meet-up? I would love if you can give me pointers on how to improve. :)

    Hiiiii! I'd love to! My Lucas isn't really up to scratch yet, but I'll do my best to help out. As it happens I should be back in Sydney within a few weeks. Hopefully I'll get to meet you and your Lucas within the next month! =D

    I watched that ness replay, That U-air twice is something i try not to risk when i play ness, but your style is different but very effective, i've sent you some replays of my characters, did you watch them?
    Richard 89
    I watched that lucas replay you sent me. I was starting to wonder if i would ever get to see how you play lucas or ness. Now that i have, i can say it is sweet.

    The hitstun from Uair at low percents in certain situations gives you a guaranteed second Uair. I abused that on Ganon :p

    How is Ness's MU against Lucus in your opinion?

    Ness just wins advantaged state so hard onstage. Lucas doesn't have Ness' frame-3 n-air. Lucas' n-air is frame 7. And his up-air is worse.

    That's the only reason the match is close to even. Lucas wins neutral and edgeguards better, but Ness when he gets in a hit REALLY gets in a hit.

    How are Ness' matchups against Mario, Luigi, and Olimar?

    Hmm, we believed and kinda still do that Ness beats Mario +1. The only thing that got us a bit shaky on that ratio was that NAKAT's Ness lost to Ally's Mario in CEO, but it's believed it's still in our favour. Mario doesn't quite have the same terrifying combo specs of his brother and can be edge-guarded easier.
    Luco
    Luco
    Luigi on the other hand, is something we're discussing with the Luigi boards now but we believe it's either even or -1. Luigi's Fair trades with Nair (which is okay but could be better) and although Bair can kinda keep him out, once he gets in he REALLY does a lot. He's also difficult to edge-guard. Basically the inverse problems of Mario. :p
    Luco
    Luco
    Olimar we believe we beat, +1 or maybe more, but I don't know too much about the MU myself so someone good to ask about it would be Noa or Earthbound360 (Mik!). A few other Ness mains would prolly know a bit more about it too. ^_^
    Kofu
    How's Lucas treating you? I wasn't real impressed with him at first but he has some stuff going for him. One of which is is insane grab game (if he can get grabs :V). ZAir is nice though (where's my Villager ZAir Sakurai).

    Thankfully I won the set (it was against a Link that time) but the last game was like, last stock post-100%s for both of us, and I got really lucky with the grab (and the throw only just killed, I thought he might survive it at first).

    Actually I've always sucked at the Link MU. Today I played FG and met a few Link players and started playing a lot more patiantly and analytically and got a lot more success. :D

    I've had some trouble with Link myself, but since his frame data is pretty bad playing patiently against him works pretty well.

    Duuuuuuude I wish I could tell you how much feels this inspires in me. Also I legitimately think now that Nintendo is going to release Mother 3 on the VC. Probably not now, possibly not even for a couple years, but they're giving the series too much attention of late not to.
    Luco

    I think it's only a matter of time - they're not going to hold out forever. But that's just a theory. A GAME THEO- okay I'm done. :D

    I think there's a good chance we're going to see Mother 3 localized now. Just look at how well EarthBound did and how EarthBound Beginnings is. There's money in appealing to the fan base and I'm glad Nintendo is finally realizing this. Whenever it is for the Wii U or NX remains to be seen. Also helps Reggie hasn't ruled it out yet.

    It looks like a little bit of poetic irony. In Brawl I would always start out with Ness in tournament sets and switch to Lucas when the going got tough (unless Ness was legitimately working better which actually happened half of the time), in this game I might end up doing the opposite. Dunno! :p
    Berserker.

    Ness as back up seems reliable. Ness is really good anyway
    Luco
    Luco
    Yeap. At this point it looks like Lucas really just needs damage buffs on the majority of his moves and better hitboxes/frame data on a couple of them and he'll be okay, all of which can be fixed through patches. In the meantime, maybe he'll do better against Megaman? :p

    Potentially! I feel as though I'm really connected to this avatar, and I love that Star made it for me specifically, however there may come a time when I decide to change it for realises. :D

    I suppose it's because I like the idea that avatars are connected to the person, and I feel as though changing my avatar would be shifting my identity in front of you guys. So in general I keep this one, and if I do change then expect that new avatar to stay for a while too. :p

    So how about that Lucas announcement? /late

    The fact that they included a joke/reference to his hometown in his intro video (the original Japanese doesn't have the witty lines like "Villager comes to town") is a nice touch.

    If I could have one of the cut characters from Brawl back it would be Wolf, actually. Well, ICs first, but that's more out of respect than wanting to play them (really don't like their playstyle lol). I did enjoy Wolf though. Excellent air mobility clicks with me more than fast ground speed.
    Luco
    Luco
    I click with them both, really. Ness going out and finding a big wide world, and Lucas because of his ties to Claus. It's worth playing Mother 3, I think, it's really masterful. Mother 1 is a trek, but fun as well. I'm SO hyped for Mother 4, which is coming out in June, so overall it's going to be a very exciting month! ;)
    Luco
    Luco
    I think Wolf will almost definitely come back. ICs I'm not so sure about, even though I want them back, it would be sad to see an entire series cut from smash. :/

    Soon, for sure. I get back on the 21st but it may take me a bit of time to get my Wii U set up again and whatnot after visiting family and friends and sorting my life out. I'd say try adding me around the 20th for a safe bet I'll get to it before Christmas.

    Go for it! Lucas is so incredibly fun, in Brawl he was a little more mobile than Ness as you know because of PKF wavebouncing and all of his crazy ATs like zap jumps and magnet pulls. Really hoping he keeps all that. :D

    Sheik is difficult but probably close to even. Needles make life sucky and she can punish our aerials well with her own, however she's freakishly light and doesn't kill us easily, resulting in a rage-induced Ness who's Bthrow kills way earlier than it should ever have a right to. :p
    Luco
    Luco
    The rest are close enough to even not to matter, even or in our favour. Diddy might be a -1 but it's close. Lasting PK Thunder is probably one of the few times where Diddy actually has to be careful with recovery. GR stuff is bad but we're used to it. :p
