Social Hope Will Never Die! - Lucina Thread

I haven't started WoL. Without giving spoilers, why would playing it make you want to main him?

I believe that with some spirits, you can easily turn Marth into a cheese machine that can kill a lot of spirits with fair or fsmash.
At least that's what I did. Because **** some of these WoL spirits are anti-fun.

Because I don't have Sonic or Zero Suit Samus yet in WoL. And I like how he finally spoke English after having to hear Japanese in my English game. Plus Dancing Blade is my favorite special move. And I've played a few Marth vs. Lucina matches in Smash Wii U. In fact, Lucina was my favorite Smash 4 newcomer. And I liked her for her similarities to Marth!

Just wonderful. It seems almost every bit of news just makes things worse. Do they really care so little? Even more of a clone than before and less personality than Daisy and Richter.

You gotta stop being so dramatic and relax. The world isn't out to get you. Lucina's balanced blade alone is enough to separate her from Marth and makes her a much more reliable option in many matchups. I don't Richter having any different personality than Simon, and Daisy does because she's just an extravagant character thematically. It's kinda hard to separate an echo of a character like Marth who was already very plain to begin with.

On a positive note, Lucina's Dash Attack does real damage and knockback now. I'm not sure if the knockback part of it is a buff though; the last one was good for tech chases.

I've started to opt for pivot-boosted ftilts for Lucina as opposed to a dash attack. It has just as much on demand range, and comes out way quicker for punishes on a dime. It does have a tiny bit less knockback but to me less startup frames /predictability are worth it.

No doubt DA is useless with either character thanks to the pivot cancel Ftilt. Ftilt is safe on shield (spaced) in this game. Dash Attack – already a bad move and without the reduced end lag that most DAs in this game got – is absolutely useless.

I don't care that much about viability. It'd be nice, but it's not the main thing. Even her own idle stance would have been an improvement. Or new voice lines (Ike got two sets of new ones). But, nope, they went ahead and removed differences.

 

[Arthur97]

Okay, so it looks like the Ike victory quote is gone, but the Marth one is still there...why?

 

[Arthur97]

Why does Lucina's wiki page keep changing? This latest one seems like a step backwards too. And I mean stuff like formatting, they can't seem to make up their minds on what's what. It's a mess.

Hello all,
I'm a Pichu main but i find myself struggling with the Pichu vs Lucina matchup. I was wondering if i could play against one of you guys and see where i need to improve

Fore the record my Pichu GSP is around ~3.3 - ~3.5, so why i do like playing against people better than me, i also don't want to be in a lobby where i get stomped and learn nothing.

Why is this thread so dead compared to Marth's when she's usually considered better?

 

[MercuryPenny]

the marth thread is used to discuss both characters since most of the discussion here is comparing the two characters

also this thread has the lowest priority of the stickies, so it has lower visibility than the marth thread

Well then...

probably because Lucian is a settled matter

she's a qt3.14 and most people feel she's better

Though I was always fascinated by the popular prevailing views on whether the consistency or tipper was better from smash 4 to here
