This man gets it.Of the Marth-style characters Roy is the only one that gets me super hyped to watch though. It's just the way that Roy players move with him that makes things so interesting.
I mean juggling isn't unbeatable in this game, should you DI and airdodge correctly, with most characters I've seen do it.This man gets it.
I'm gonna play devil's advocate a bit. Juggling forever may be boring to watch but its optimal in competitive play, its how you get stocks, its what the character is good at. Worth noting that being the juggler is much more fun than watching the juggler ;p.
At the same time though, lots of lucina players look for nothing but the juggle. I've seen so many people d tilt into up tilt, both hits continuously get shielded, and thats great conditioning but I hardly ever see them go for the shield breaker mixup after, which would end the stock much faster.
Its a real classic case of players looking for the biggest reward, but as the meta evolves so must people, and that includes finding ways to beat people who know the juggle is coming.
Mario for example while he seems basic was and is very explosive with huge combo potential and hype moments, therefore he wasn't really boring to watch for most peopleI didn't pay much attention back in the day, but were there similar complaints about Mario who is also fairly basic outside of that fair (which, yes, can be hype).
Lucina is not the highest damage potential.... in fact, she's not even close.I don't think anyone is saying it is, its just what most people go for since it has the highest damage potential on our characters.
Just throwing it out there, when I said "our characters" I specifically meant marcena. As in the characters that we use. And it was in reference to the fact that a good juggle has greater damage potential than anything else in their kit on most characters ;p.Lucina is not the highest damage potential.... in fact, she's not even close.
Damage goes to Pichu, Pikachu and Peach. The PPP Squad. Then you have Inklings if you're Inked.
Oh, well yea. Of course throw into upair string air dodge read upair string is their best "damage" option as a character. I'd rather just throw off stage and cover every option with run off Fair, jump back to stage Bair for coverage. It literally covers everything lolJust throwing it out there, when I said "our characters" I specifically meant marcena. As in the characters that we use.
