The Lucas General Discussion

[A2ZOMG]

I thought Lucas could kill better than Ness?




DMG CAN BE IN THE BACKROOM YEEEEEEEE

Lucas has moves that can kill earlier yes, but Ness is able to finish off people more reliably with B-throw. =/

Either way, Lucas is definitely better in singles.

 

[HailCrest]

Actually Lucas does better in doubles than Ness because he can recover... Very important because not one, but two people have the chance to gimp Ness and a lot more accidental hits and kills are going on.

Unless, like, the Ness has a pact with his partner "lulz if u c a guy (or 2) trying to gmp mi cn u go n kill him? kthx"

 

[Chuee]

DMG will make Lucas proud :D

I wouldn't techincally use this as a reason. I do great as a team with Link in low-tier doubles b/c I'm really good at getting the pressure off for Link. But therein lies why Lucas is good at doubles, he's able to take pressure off his partner quite easily.

My partner is a Snake user, and he rarely ever has to save me from anything.

Maybe if the Ness doesn't know what they're doing this is true, but I rarely get gimped and I rarely have a problem with someone hitting my PKT. Tailwhipping does help I admit. I think it's because in all honesty, some people are really scared of Ness PKT2, and if you have like, 80 dmg you'll either die or have to DI like a champ. I rarely have people challenge hitting it. They'll usually wait for me to come back and we'll fight more, then start this whole thing over.

I think Ness does better than Lucas in doubles because I feel Ness is faster. Bthrow is quick and (for me) painless unless you use it too many times and let it stale. Though I do enjoy using Lucas too because I love using fsmash and killing people with ftilt. I'm not the best Lucas in the world but that's how I do it.

Oh and I agree, I find Lucas easier to use in Singles but that's only situational for me...

 

[~Nasty~]

I feel Lucas does have plenty of kill options in doubles.

In dubz, ppl tend to role a lot more often. This means you have a greater chance of getting off your smashes. If your partner grabs the opponent, they can throw them into lucas' Usmash for nice kills. Lucas' Dthrow and Bthrow can also kill granted not as early as ness'.

Besides, how often is ness really getting grabs in doubles? there is a lot of commotion going on that i would imagine it to be easier to get a smash off than a grab. And even if you get the grab, if your partner is good, he'd be there to stop the throw from happening. Eh, maybe i'm just not familiar enough with how ness plays in doubles but Lucas definitely does very well.

I've killed two good people in a row, one right after another in the same match, both with bthrows. It's a quick grab and a qucik throw. (remember, Snake user does his job like a champ over on the other side and makes sure nothing else happens). Ness has bair, nair and PKT2 as well. You'd be surprised how many people challenge PKT2, for both the MOTHER boys. O_o

I can argue both Ness and Lucas are good in teams, but based on how I play I go with Ness more than I use Lucas in teams, of course that's opinional.

However...Ness x Lucas teams are ridiculously fun. My snake partner sometimes changes to Ness and I go Lucas.

 

[Chuee]

Ness' nair KO's late and if your opponent is smart he won't get hit by PKT2 ever.
Also Bthrow is slow on heavies.

 

[lil cj]

Lucas does good in doubles if he stays out of all the action and forces the others to approach him.

 

[HailCrest]

In doubles, my friend who mains Pit one time arrow'd this falco who was right above me, the stun was long enough for him to fall into a usmash lol

Oh my gosh haha, that's amazing.

 

[HailCrest]

Sadly the falco was only at 62% at the time :x

I finished with the jablock combo though :D

I think my favorite is dtilt lock. I don't know why, it's just so fun.

 

[PhoenixAlpha]

My semi-permanent doubles partner uses Pit... excellent lol.

 

[HailCrest]

theoretically it should also work with moves that have negligible knockback, as long as they know how to snipe.

falco and wolf's blasters, ness PK fire are also theoretical options, samus' charge shot may also work because of its super long hitlag.

 

[orange/xd]

Live thread LIVE!


In other news, my new name is Aztek. :D

 

[HelpR]

hey lucas people. how are yall today? trying to be more active on the lucas boards, so here i am.

So a bit of a character question for you all, but who do you guys use as secondaries?

I like fox and DK personally, though neither are really good enough to bother bragging about

 

[Chuee]

I use Ness. It makes no sense at all.

 

[rPSIvysaur]

I use Gdubs. I probably shouldn't b/c he doesn't help against Lucas' bad MU's. :/

 

[Yink]

I use Ness. It makes no sense at all.

*claps*

I use Lucas as one of mine, so don't worry haha. Besides him I secondary Luigi, Marth and Snake.

EDIT: Now that I think about it, it's funny I use an E tier character and Snake is S...why don't I just main him? Haha. Oh right, because Ness is amazing.

 

[orange/xd]

I use Ness, Pit.

 

[~Pink Fresh~]

I use lucas as a secondary

 

[Tokaio]

Wario and DK. DK for the stupid Marth match-up >_>

 

[~Nasty~]

I use lucas as a secondary

/gasp

Other than maining lucas, i use Snake, D3, MK, and Marth.... mostly in that order

 

[ZMan]

i like lucas, roy, pit, and DAYDAYDAY

 

[PhoenixAlpha]

I use lucas as a secondary

Dang, sometimes it's hard to believe that I'm one of the few players who actually go STRAIGHT Lucas. PF I love you.

Oh, and I second PK Freeze.

 

[Chuee]

I second PK Startstorm.

 

[DMG]

I main Lucas.

You *******.

 

[orange/xd]

I second Healing Ω.

 

[rPSIvysaur]

I main Lucas.

You *******.

I wouldn't mind if you touched me XD

Anyway.

Go all Lucas at your next tourney.

"DMG couldn't stop crying!"

Good going rPSI

 

[DMG]

Wario couldn't catch Lucas.

That was such Bullshet lol.

 

[rPSIvysaur]

B/C Lucas is a better camper than Wario. DUH

On a side note, Lucas U-smash is a fail move. At high percents it's way too easy to SDI out of it.
