yeah norfair and brinstar are good stages for ganon. Norfair has many ledges which allow for non suicidal ledge hop aerials. The lava also lets him survive a ganoncide as well as prevent gimping. He also has the spartan kick and jab which can easily be used to force u into the wall of lava that appears every now and then.I played Twilight Prince on wifi a while back.
He liked Norfair as a stage for ganondorf.
Anyways I'll do a write up on both tomorrow.
There's only a few percent difference, and by a few, I mean a few. Falcon literally survives 1% longer vertically, and Ganon survives 2% longer horizontally.I lol'd. Here is why.
I was sure it was a more than that.There's only a few percent difference, and by a few, I mean a few. Falcon literally survives 1% longer vertically, and Ganon survives 2% longer horizontally.
Boo you.
Dude are you kidding? Lucario's jumps are enormous and extreme speed is decent in height.Lucario's favour for both, most likely. Though CF has some decent KO moves (Knee Smash, f-smash, etc.), he can have difficulty landing most of them, and because he might have to rack up a bit of damage before going in for the kill Lucario's power goes up considerably. His small model also means landing things like the Knee and d-air meteor is difficult. Lucario's smashes are obscenely laggy as well, though, and his recovery arguably doesn't go as high vertically given his smaller jumps and up-special.
Say, can't CF use an u-air as well as his b-air in a RAR?
As for Ganon, he pretty much is going to be killing as very low percents, meaning you're not going to killing with raw power anytime soon, and the King of Evil's weight adds to that. His dash attack and f-tilt can cancel out your Aura Sphere's too, and even plough straight though them. But you have a better edgeguarding capabilites and overall faster attacks (smashes notwithstanding). You might have better range, too, with some disjointed hitboxes. Not sure about priority.
Erm, was that good enough? I hope so...
I said 'smaller' jumps, not small. By no means are his jumps poor. CF jumps higher, but his faster falling speed means he doesn't go much higher anyway. And ExtremeSpeed can't hit ledgehoggers, which is more what I was getting at. Falcon Dive goes higher vertically than ExtremeSpeed and can hit them, though.Dude are you kidding? Lucario's jumps are enormous and extreme speed is decent in height.
Your description of lucario's smashes are also a bit exaggerated. Only Fsmash has very very distasteful lag and even then it is made up for with great power, range, Transcendant priority and IASA frames. stuff CF unfortunately doesnt have in his smashes. (except for power of course)
Also Lucario really wont be dying at low percents against ganon unless he got directly hit by a warlock punch. Aura sphere also gains power and priority with damage and Ganon cant plow through it when lucario is at mid percent. His weight is just another reason for us to smile, If Ganon misses an attack, he is going to get combo'd until he weeps.
and one last thing. nearly all our attacks have disjointed hitboxes. all with transcendant priority on aura bursts. Not particularly as gay as MK but still pretty good for us :D
Small corrections good sir. i have the replies in green.I said 'smaller' jumps, not small. By no means are his jumps poor. CF jumps higher, but his faster falling speed means he doesn't go much higher anyway. IIRC lucario's second jump is higher than Captain falcon's And ExtremeSpeed can't hit ledgehoggers, which is more what I was getting at. Falcon Dive goes higher vertically than ExtremeSpeed and can hit them, though. I still firmly hold ES is better as a recovery than Falcon dive. And we lucarios always go for the wallcling if being edgehogged.
His smashes have below average knockback and higher lag time, unless he's at higher percents. Same with Aura Sphere. Obviously CF's going to have a hard time then, but with Ganondorf's powerful attacks, you aren't really going to get that power very early. You can gimp them both incredibly easily all the same.
It seems more like your quoting from smash wiki. The below average knockback wears away come 75% and after 120% The knockback on his smashes are high enough to kill very well. Also, Only Fsmash has a higher lag time. the smash speed of lucario and CF are quite even.
Weight doesn't necessarily mean you get comboed easily firstly. Samus and Yoshi are heavy but floaty, so an obvious aversion there. last time i checked, we could combo Samus and Yoshi.You can juggle them very easily, though. Ganon, sure you can combo, I'm not denying that, but he's still got the weight to keep him alive for as long as it takes to kill you. And it will take a long time to kill a good lucario.His power may be great, But he technically doesnt have snake's Uptilt. Ganon's ways of killing lucario are too obvious, and there is such thing as DI you know.
Transcending priority?! No way. Disjointed, but not transcending. I have clashed attacks with Lucarios in the past .he does in fact DO have transcendant priority on his moves. i just forgot to mention they are in the AURA BURSTS. his body hitbox can be clashed with. my bad.
Still, though, despite his strengths Ganon just isn't capable of really putting up a serious fight against a good Lucario player. Hmm. 30:70 in your favour, I think.
Quoting from Smash Wiki? Is that an insult? I know what I'm talking about.Small corrections good sir. i have the replies in green.
That doesn't stop Ganon's whole metagame from lagging on Brinstar, as DLA was saying. Brinstar isn't a good stage for Ganon.On Brinstar Ganon has Ganoncides, utilt spiking repeatedly into raising fires, extended hitboxes on the tendons and balls for his moves which already last a long time, and small blast zones for massive ****.
Compared to who?he's also far more resistant to vertical KOs.
Why, Lucario of course! He's a much faster faller and heavier too.Compared to who?
He definitely has Transcendent priority, just not on his AS. I'll correct you later, but there's a lot of mistakes that need to be flattened out. :DQuoting from Smash Wiki? Is that an insult? I know what I'm talking about.
You think ES is the better recovery, that's fine. But there are definitely some stages you can't wall-cling to. Battlefield and Halberd are examples, so relying on that alone to stop edgehoggers would be suicide. If Lucario is on such a stage, his opponent is edgehogging and he's not in range to attack them, he's pretty much already dead.
I'm not sure that CF and Lucario have an even smash speed. Their forward smashes are very similar, but CF's up and down smashes are a bit faster, and have more range to them. Not to mention that Lucario's d-smash won't hit if the opponent isn't grounded. But 'cario's priority is unquestionably better. CF's is right down there in the gutter.
I never said you couldn't combo Samus and Yoshi, just that they're too floaty to really do it at middling percents. They won't fall fast enough for you to catch them, and their good air speed means they can get away.
Ganon's f-tilt and d-tilt speed are actually quite fast, and are capable of killing quite readily, especially against floaty Lucario. DI is also available for Ganondorf, as with every other character - he's also far more resistant to vertical KOs.
I'm still skeptical about transcending priority on Lucario's aura attacks. I've looked it up. Aura Sphere definitely doesn't have it, as a thread on the character board proves. As for all his other attacks, I'm not sure. Could you give me a pointer to the thread that says so?
A bit more than 10%, but true enough. Lucarios should be living longer than Ganon timewise, though, and Falcon should be living longer than both.Why, Lucario of course! He's a much faster faller and heavier too.
Aurasphere is an energy projectile my friend. Im talking about those bursts that come out of lucario whenever he attacks. A good example will be Fsmash. If you attack the aura blast with even the strongest attack, the aura blast just passes straight through. However, if you clank with the body hitbox before getting hit by the aura hitbox, you wont get hurt see? There is no thread that says so, you just have to see for yourself.Quoting from Smash Wiki? Is that an insult? I know what I'm talking about. No its not an insult. I just happened to see similarity to a smashwiki article lol.

If Lucario is on such a stage, his opponent is edgehogging and he's not in range to attack them, he's pretty much already dead.
The few times this will happen is if we get spiked. Most other times, Aurasphere does a good job here.Many opponents underestimate Lucario's ability to recover, many forget we have a projectile.

DI is also available for Ganondorf, as with every other character - he's also far more resistant to vertical KOs. Yes, the bane of lucario. vertical KO's. However Ganon is way better at killing horizontally last time i checked.

EVERYONE'S GANGING UP ON MEEEE!! WHY??!!Aurasphere is an energy projectile my friend. Im talking about those bursts that come out of lucario whenever he attacks. A good example will be Fsmash.

No need to feel bad. just some stuff i wanted to correct tis all.EVERYONE'S GANGING UP ON MEEEE!! WHY??!!
Alright, I'm backing out now.
Maybe i'm missing something, but can't lucario just land on stage? Yeah there's the knee, but at least it's not a guaranteed ledgehog death, right? And then if lucario curves up a little bit, he might be able to avoid ledge hopped attacks and then grab the edge, right? To me it seems like a tech chase or something.If Lucario is on such a stage, his opponent is edgehogging and he's not in range to attack them, he's pretty much already dead.
Chillax. We've got as many characters left as I can count on one hand lol. Much better speed than where it used to be.why havent this mach up guide been finished 0_0? is there so little lucario players actually caring.....

My vote would be for Zelda. I think she would probably give Lucario the most difficulty out of those 5.Chillax. We've got as many characters left as I can count on one hand lol. Much better speed than where it used to be.
Let's vote for next chars plz, there's:
Mario
Yoshi
Lucas
Zelda
Jigglypuff
