Social PK Love - Lucas Social Thread: “Inside the mailbox was absolutely nothing”

[Fenriraga]

If I'm correct, Jeff, along with Paula and Poo, had trophies in Melee.
Yeah, for example, Paula:

Ah right, forgot about Melee. But I feel like they could do better with them... Ah well.

But in Smash 4, they have trophies of my favorite party members, Starman and Ultimate Chimera.

Man, I am tooo dang hyped. Brawl introduced me to Mother 3, which basically became my absolute favourite game, so it's about time Lucas made a comeback.

Also, I seriously want a new Mother 3 stage of some kind. New Pork was cool and all, but there's so many more locations we could have. Also I think the stage slightly missed the point of NPC in the original. It's supposed to feel cramped and fake, something that isn't really inspired by making it one of the most infamously large stages of all time.

The Empire Porky Building would be such a great stage that transitions as it goes higher and lower. Having a floor with the bathrooms and the Ultimate Chimera being in one... The while building has potential for a good stage with references such as passing by the shell house, and even passing by a DCMC concert.

The day of arrival is only getting closer, with each passing day going slower... Wednesday will be over before we know it, and then will drag the next day. ;_;

 

[Lord Retardus]

Wednesday's practically over for me, but then again here in Australia Lucas arrives at 1AM Monday morning. For once a late-night release I'm gonna stay up for!

Ahhh I wish I was back in Australia, I'll be on a hike here so I won't be able to get Lucas until later. :'(

You should try going into the competitive scene Lord! More Lucas mains will always be good. <3

 

[Lord Retardus]

I'm trying, I swear. Gotta build up my skills through Anther's for a little while before I start attending actual tournies though. That and the whole Year 12 thing. Definitely going to go ahead and make Lucas a main, though. Technically my current mains are Ness and Kirby (dat voice actress synergy) but I've set my Sm4sh mains in anticipation of next monday.

 

[Fire Emblemier]

View attachment 55807 okay...

When Squad is on point.

4 days the anticipation is killing me. We also have E3 only 2 days later too.

 

[notbenny]

Tbh I think most of his throws will kill at 150 especially with rage if given the right positioning. Won't matter if up throw kills

Yeah, all of his throws kill at 150 except forward throw.

No no no

What about moves for gimp? nair maybe? from the moment that the last hit now has more knockback? fair? what else?

Here in italy will be available at 17:00 PM

You help them learn PK Flash?

PKT1,Down Throw Fair near the ledge,Rope Snake Ledge Thrump into Spike Bair,Thundersliding(if Lucas can do The double PK2 which he probably can) and other stuff
And do my crazy Down Throw combo idea near The ledge which is Down Throw-Read The air Dodge into turn around Back Air and when they try to recover, do a Stage Spike Fair and fast fall into double jump Dair to kill them

 

[AwkwardNess]

You help them learn PK Flash?

And then they think PK Flash is a good move in Smash and waste their time with it

 

[Jigglystep]

you can join us if that's alright with Step

Oh definitely! I'd love to practice with all of my fellow Lucas mains. We'll all work together to push our boy to his limits. ;o

I quite hope PKT1 can still be used for "PK Uppercut" during gimping - basically make PKT1 go below your opponent and then instantly turn it up which should push them quite far away to the blast zone. But since ya'll are Lucas-main, you knew that, right?-

Also Ledge-trumping might need to become more vital for Lucas's sake, it hasn't been too big with my Peach or Marth despite practicing it with them but I'd love to learn it to the point of comfortability for Spiked B-Airs.

What would your reaction be if they announced New Pork City in the pre-update video on Sunday?

"Pay close attention, now... If you run into a red, huge-mouthed Chimera, do absolutely NOTHING to it. Got that? I've warned you. And, while I'm warning you like this, I should add that it'd be even more dangerous not to take the time out to talk with that frog."

I'll be indifferent if the stage makes it back honestly. I would want a new Mother 3 stage, but that's asking for more.

 

[ilysm]

I may have already voiced this opinion, but as much as I love Mom 3 (and ask anyone I've ever spoken to, I love it a LOT) I really dislike New Pork City. On principle, any stage where you need to use your recovery move to get from one place to another place is a bad stage. I'd only want it back if they changed it around. A new MOTHER stage would be amazing; some great suggestions I heard were Saturn Valley and the Chimera Labs.

 

[AwkwardNess]

Honestly, I'd be fine with New Pork City coming back. As infamous as it was in Brawl, the stage really lends itself well for 8 Player Smash. And with Omega Stages, you can still enjoy that Mother 3 love in a practical setting. I'd also really like Fourside to make a return.

 

[Deidara]

Saturn Valley would be neat since it represents both EB and M3. and the non-omega version could have random spawning Mr. Saturns to throw around...(eww) but I think the omega version would look too much like that one Mario stage in Wii U that I totally forgot the name of.

Do you mean Mushroom Kingdom U?

I think so. the green one that changes with Nabbit and stuff?

Well, my problem wasn't really an issue of size so much as an issue of space. I mean, there's just so much SPACE in between all of the set pieces. To give an example, I loooooove Temple, even with 4 players but especially with 8. One of the reasons why Temple worked so well was that it was easily traversable. There were a lot of no-hassle routes a player could take from one area of the stage to another. New Pork City was big, sure, but that wasn't its problem. Its problem was that it was so tedious to get from Point A to Point B that it made me wonder why I bothered. (Fun fact, actually: size-wise, Temple and New Pork City are almost the same. Everyone assumes New Pork is bigger because of all the empty air, which is pretty telling.)

So yeah. I guess I didn't like it because of its mobility issues, not because of the size per se.

NPC's empty space is kinda why I want it back for 8 Player Smash. With 8 players, it ends up always becoming a thing of attacking nearby opponents as opposed to having to navigate the stage to find your opponents. I kinda dislike Temple because of the Cave(s) of Life and the fact that every match ends up going there. NPC DEFINITELY has Caves of Life, but they seem less effective due to the empty space and the fact that in the caves, you're not necessarily safe below yourself (The destructible platform in the bottom right and the few platforms in the bottom left). If 8 Player Smash didn't exist, then I'm certain that NPC would have no chance of returning. I'd personally love to also see the Ultimate Chimera show up and tear through crowds of characters.

Yes indeedily.

With how 8 player stages have been handled, Ultimate Chimera probably would be removed if the stage were to return. For 5+ players anyway.
Which as a Smash Player, makes me happy. As a Mother fan, it makes me sad.

Disappointed, because that's like the worst stage of all time lol

I just want Fountain of Dreams back ;_;

I want a lot of old stages back like Yoshi's Story, Fountain of Dreams, and Green Greens. A lot of them are really good competitive stages.

 

[ilysm]

I'm actually a bit disappointed in the way Omegas were handled in this game. Don't get me wrong, they're really cool. But Nintendo missed a golden opportunity with them in my opinion. Imagine if Omega Great Cave Offensive was essentially FoD? Or if Omega Wooly World was a remake of Yoshi's? So many possibilities! But instead they're all just FD clones. Cosmetically cool, but kind of a novelty.

That would definitely be cool, but that seems like a bit too much for the team. At that point, they might as well just bring back the actual stage. I really enjoy the Omegas a lot anyways.

I cant wait to see the "I'm gonna main Lewis!!! :B" people stop playing him for the next DLC character. Why does this happen in every game LOL?

And glad you guys joined, the more the better. (:<

Yeah, people just get attracted to DLC characters when they come out, just look at Mewtwo... It'll eventually die out and people will go back to their regular characters except for the dedicated ones (all of us?)

Can't wait for Le Lucas, the first time I play Smash 4 will be whenever Lucas arrives. So pumped
