Hi guys I have been a huge fan of The Hero King since I first played Melee, so I was hoping that you can still spike people with him in the new game. If anyone knows for sure could you please tell me, I am also curious if Lucina does aswell.

Both Marth and Lucina still spike with the tip of their Dair. :)
Eh? Isn't it that Marth strongly spikes with the tip while Lucina deals a moderate spike overall?

Lucina's entire blade does not spike; like Marth, there is a hitbox near the tip that does. :) I don't know if her hitbox is bigger or how the spike differs from Marth's, though.

Do you know if Falco can still spike aswell?
I haven't seen it myself, but I believe I saw it mentioned in stream chat that it can still spike, but that it is also far from the incredibly good move that it was in Melee. Don't take this for a definitive answer though; there's probably some gameplay footage of it somewhere. :)

I also look forward to playing as Lucina and Robin. Anyway thanks for the info, I appreciate it.
