I posted this on the big guide thread, but I haven't gotten any response to it in a day or two. So here it is on its own.
Some things I discovered while waiting for online matches.
Approaching with Lucas seems to be amazingly simple. You can go offensive or defensive, or mix it up to keep your opponent guessing.
Offensive: Short Hop PK Fire. You just make little hops and blast them with fire each time. Pretty good for keeping up some pressure, and when you get close you can change it to FAir or NAir.
Defensive: Short Hop PSI Magnet. I kid you not, you can pull this out almost the EXACT instant you jump, giving you almost a wavedash-type forward slide with the magnet out. It's not a big slide, but it is noticable. This protects you from projectiles, and if they get too close you just pop the magnet on them.
So now you can SHPKFire a few times, then SHPMPop if they try to counter or you get close enough. The pop has good kick, so you could then dash in and start whatever devastation you want.
I haven't played many 1v1s, but I'm sure these options make Lucas one of the easiest/safest chars to approach with.
So is this already known? Useless? New and exciting? Feedback appreciated
