Bless Sakurai and the development team for Ultimate. It's obvious that they have truly paid attention to how various characters needed to be changed.
My hope for Rosalina coming into Ultimate was that she would have less jank but in return, de-tethered Luma play would be more worthwhile. And that's exactly what they've done.
So to review...
- Luma has a 1.5x damage multiplier when de-tethered
- Luma Shot is much better (Luma can act faster out of launch & you can do more with Luma while he's returning to Rosa)
- Star Bits are much better (more range, faster)
- Luma is more responsive to Rosa's movements
Having de-tethered play as an actual staple for her gameplay is potentially far more interesting than spamming jab and up-air.
