Another example of Up+B ****

[HollaAtchaBoy]

(Dammit, the video isn't working for some reason. I'll try to upload later.)

At NYU's recent Smash event, I picked up ROB after playing him a few times prior, and played quite a few FFAs, going on a 4-0 streak for a while. One of my later matches involved playing someone who was very competent with Lucario, and since it was a spectator event, Smash Balls were on.

During the course of the match, Lucario (somehow, given that I was ****** the Smash Balls with Up+B combos all day) got three Smash Balls. And every time I would simply head to the upper right or left side of the screen as soon as he activated Kamehameha , and simply Up+B stalled in the corner until it was done. He could do absolutely nothing to hit me with it.

I know it's not very applicable to most games that are going to be played, but it did make people hate me for doing it, so I obviously was doing something right.

Just thought I'd share.

That seems to be the problem with lucario's final smash in general: it's just darned easy to avoid. But I agree, R.O.B.'s upB is one cool move (use it against olimar's final smash as well for the same effect).

There is one applicable cause........


lucario has a dumb final smash

Maybe he's not as competent as you think. A lot of FSs require setup.

I am not so sure that Lucario's FS is one you can "set up"

Do it close to them -- The initial rush in the upward direction can spike/meteor/knock people down.
