Lucas seeks to... okay, I give. I have no idea, I don't understand Lucas at all. He's one of my most played characters, but only because he intrigues me: I don't *get* Lucas. I understand all of his moves and how to use them effectively, but I see no common theme or purpose. He just seems like an arbitrary character with a random assortment of reasonably unique attacks!
He does suck in the air though. That's a pretty common theme.
<!--break-->
+B somewhat useless.
+Rather unremarkable...
+MARF.
+ Increase B speed, damage, freeze duration.
+ Increase Down-B knockback.
+ Increase fair, bair, dair knockback and damage.
+ Zair inflicts poison flower.
+ Decrease grab-release lag.
+ Partial super armor on double jump.
In conclusion, I have simply tried to make Lucas more random and bizarre than he already is. Increased dair knockback should make dair -> f-smash work at lower percents, which is pretty nice for him. Maybe I'm just a Ness fanboy at heart who refuses to accept Lucas's true purpose... whatever that may be...
