Its Nothing.
also edited a random tidbit in the pictochat section that you might wanna check out again
Castle Siege:
starts to change every 40 seconds
transition is about 5+ seconds [depends on how scractchy the disc is, less scratches faster loading, more scratches more time in transition]
You can get a free stock on MK if you grab him during the transitions to Castle3 or Castle1's offstage zones [while still in the walkoff transition stage]
MK cannot glide under the stages here.
if he breaks out the bottom MK falls to his death and lucario pops right up.
However if MK tries this trick both characters can jump before they die, while this still might mean death on Castle3 [still try though!, I haven't been able to ACTUALLY try recover VS a MK that did this to me there.]
You can still recover on Castle1 via wallclinging or even regrabing the ledge again if you curve well enough.
however.. theres the MK to worry about so be careful.
you can try to dair him for lols I guess.
Does a whole cycle three and a half times [ending an 8 minute match on time out in Castle2]
Castle 1:
this has a normal ceiling and kinda medium small boundaries on the side.
Not a lot of space to roll away.
and if you're playing a more defensive MK its harder to fight him when he controls the left side.
However, its very hard to get gimped here if you DI towards the stage offstage.
If you can tech/keep on clinging.
sooner or later the transition will save you.
I've been able to survive dsf and tyrant 2 v 1 trying to edgeguard me on castle 1 and the transition ended up saving me.
So its definitely possible if a scrub like me can do it.
Castle 2:
Remember on the transition to castle2 you'll end up on the highest platform.
for this reason go to middle left if possible or roll all the way to the walk-off,or get ready to buffer a ledgedrop.
this has a higher ceiling then normal.
You got PLENTY of space to roll/space.
unstale your moves by jabbing the platform over and over.
Watch out for Extended hitbox Shuttle loop [both aerial/ground]
if mk does his shfl fair on the statue its a lot laggier because of the hitlag.
You can abuse the extended hitboxes on the statues too.
also
DO NOT BE AFRAID TO CAMP AT THE CORNER.
Just watch and bait that obvious dash grab.
and when they smarten up/lost their stock.
just play smart [shield/jump to the platform above when needed/roll/short hop air dodge]
and see if you get that grab/cross-up/crossing nair,dair,bair.
Castle3:
Easily the best part of the stage for lucario.
the ceiling is EVER SO SLIGHTLY lower but the boundaries on the side are more like FDs rather then being close to the edge.
Pretty much just flat with some tilts with a hump on the left.
You can't cling to the sides though.
and uh thats it.
CP CASTLE MORE GUYS ITS ONE OF LUCS BEST CPS
