As someone who has seen a lot of Melee Marth, how do you use Marth's/Lucina's tools in this game?

[Saxophoneoftime]

Is there anything i can apply from watching Marths in Melee? Is F-Air still used the same? How about D-Tilt? Is Side-B better this time around?

Fair got hit with a lot of landing lag this game, so SH fairs are out of the question. It's still a good move, but it's not as safe as it used to be.

My bread and butter is full jump fair, autocancel nair, ftilt or pivot ftilt, or turn around ftilt if you read properly.

You can chase with fairs. Depending on how they VI you can follow up with more or go for a spike.

Bair is pretty nice. Good knockback and range.

I find approaching to be a lot more difficult compared to Melee. Nair and fair aren't too easy to approach with

Dtilt is good but seems like the range like all of his other moves are nerfed. Dsmash can kill and has some nice trajectory depending on if you hit at the right spot.

if you short hop and fair fast enough you won't get landing lag, same with bair

I'd recommend Emblem Lord's post on Marth/Lucina strategy notes, as from what I can tell, he speaks from Melee experience:
