Marth chaingrab vs Lucas?

[Zarki]

Hey, I got a huge problem winning against skilled Marths, the biggest problem I got is the grab. I usually try to avoid being grabbed as much as possible when I'm against Marth but sometimes he gets me and I loose like 60% of my life, sometimes less, sometimes more. It feels I try everything to get out of it, but perhaps I havn't.

The question is: How do I break Marths chaingrab if there is a way?

 

[Kitamerby]

You can't, unfortunately. Don't get grabbed.

 

[Zarki]

Does Lucas have any chain grabs then? I guess not

Dont choose FD. Choose Pirate ship or Norfair.
It's not just "dont get grabbed" its "dont get grabbed on the left side of a stage facing right on a huge platform."

After being grabbed, there's no escape. DI away from him as much as possible while rapidly mashing buttons. You will creep away from Marth a little bit each time. You will stilll take heavy damage on the large platforms, but the faster you button mash, the less pain you recieve. Also, when you think Marth is done with you, he WILL fsmash you. You can block this by DIing as far away as possible and timing a spot dodge perfectly.

Marth will in fact D-smash or Up-B you.

If I'm only allowed to choose from the stages:
FD, BF, Smashville and Yoshi Island. Shall I take BF then, or? :>

Well, avoid Smashville and FD like the plague. The one platform in Smashville isn't static enough to really guarantee any kind of safety from a chaingrab, and the main platform is wide enough that he'll easy OHKO you. It's a bad matchup overall, but I personally would prefer BF since there's more you can do without having to horizontally line-up with him, therefore reducing the chances of being grabbed (although a single grab regardless will still heavily punish you, even on a platform often).

Yoshi's Island wouldn't be a bad second pick, but I personally can't stand the terrain.

Slants on Yoshi's island help

all you can try to do is jump escape. mash whatever jump buttons you have. if he does the chain grab perfectly however, you won't get out. just like fighting IC. don't get grabbed.

i'm having a lot of trouble with Falco. this one player usually Short hop lasers me twice and goes into an f-smash, which i can't move because of the lasers
and, he also does a jab a attack and right when i get out of it, uses his reflector

any tips?

 

[S.D]

Mash out of grabs and try to spot dodge vs marth. You're still relying on them to screw up though.

 

[fear17]

there no way to escape the only thing i tell you is to dont get grabbed

Fortunately, people in this area aren't douchey enough to use this tactic. Everyone here has a common hatred towards MK (since a 12 year old uses him and always wins the tourneys by a long shot).

Online though, different story. I play a game of paranoia, keeping towards ledges and platforms.

 

[S.D]

Just put your controller down and tell them to have fun, they'll feel too guilty to do it again

 

[Earthbound360]

lol I wish people were that considerate at tournies

 

[Zergum]

find a new character fool

 

[HiddenBowser]

lol, you suck balls if you get grabbed in the first place.

i just release grab once then dsmash... works 100% of the time for some good damage and knockback... kills at around 120 ^^
