Only played this a few times but I think this is +1 Lucas.

Both characters can get good damage off of hits and Charizard lives for quite a while but Lucas gets better mileage off comboes and his zoning game gives him an advantage on Charizard.

I also think its +1 for lucas, because charizard has to come in to do some damage on lucas but lucas his zoning game is pretty good wich makes it hard for him to get in close range.
charizard is also pretty heavy wich makes it very easy for lucas to combo him.

Edgeguarding Lucas is fun as Zard. You can keep a Lucas offstage for a good minute just with flamethrower alone.

you can go past it if you dont go up when you use rope snake, so that technique is not full proof if the lucas player thinks about it.
Flamethrower can reach Luca's rope swing arc and will still hit him

I recently lost to a lucas in my scene who just destroyed me with only pkfire and zair. I just couldn't get closer and got nervous. Any tips on how to deal with them if they start the zoning game?

Shield and play super defensively until you can bait him into coming near you
