I also run into situations like this sometimes, as Ness isn't a particularly fast character. If I can't get grabs I just try to focus on his other moves. Spam aerials to keep hitboxes present in the air. Punish rolls with dash attack and Dsmash. Pressure with your projectiles. Reflecting or...

<-- I just like the way it looks--blue's my fav color. I usually choose the blue alt for other characters when I can.

PSI Magnet. Snake's bombs and missiles are subsistence for you.

How is that? Ness has more combo potential, more offensive capabilities in PKT and the better kill throw. Lucas is good in other ways, but "in every way" is illogical.

Most, if not all of the list at the bottom should still apply: https://supersmashbros.fandom.com/wiki/PSI_Magnet As for the newcomers: - Belmonts' Holy Water (the flames, but not the canister) - Ridley's Plasma Breath - Inkling's ink (Splattershot, Splat Bomb, and the base of Super Jump(?))...

If you want to damage them offstage, you should be using disjoints or projectiles before they PKT2, not touching them directly. You basically have that as an option along with: - countering PKT2 when it happens with a counter move--works well against Lucas, and against Ness after the...

- PK Flash also goes through platforms, and doesn't disappear into the ground anymore. - Down and back air's startup frames can still be auto-cancelled upon landing. - When using PKT2, launching Ness down into the ground makes him bounce off the ground a little, instead of him just plopping down...

https://twinfinite.net/2018/12/smash-bros-ultimate-elite-smash-how-unlock-what/ It's not really clear, but your win/loss ratio is probably a factor as well as GSP. So... play more?

Nah, you're good. PKT2 actually had superarmor for some frames in the last game--not sure if they changed it in this installment; the bolt also doesn't fizzle out when you PKT when someone's right on top of you like the last game as well. I do agree that a small change like that would help Ness...

This was supposed to be an edit, not quote sorry.. (plz delete)

Yeah, if you have to PKT2 from afar, that can be difficult--I wouldn't call his recovery "beyond terrible" though *cough*Cloud*cough*. If you do it closer to the ledge you ram someone and still make it. Being too close to the ledge makes you an easy target for attacks though, so I think of it as...

I mean, yeah he has those tools, but those aren't the only tools he has. Dash attack for chasing rolls and landings, which can pop up opponents for juggles. Fair for making combos; Nair for getting out of combos. Bair and Uair kill. Usmash (kill move that covers large area) and Dair (spike) are...

Specs64z PK thunder is such a brutal chasing tool with the airdodge change that Ness's slow speed doesn't pose nearly as much of an issue as it did in Smash 4 when extending follow ups at mid-high percents. This. The airdodge mechanic gives the opponent fewer options to deal with PKT...
