I realized this when playing FAE's lucas this weekend: Lucas moves faster in the air than Toonlink >_>

Try not to air dodge when he is using PK Freeze (I only watched the first match) and when Lucas uses his tether on the ledge like around 1:57, you can jab him once and he will fall down and you can follow up from there.

IMO fighting Ness and Lucas is so awkward. I hate it. Against them, I just don't use any arrows, and go straight bombs with boomerangs.

Arrows are fun though for gimping purposes. :)

As you saw through lobo's matches the arrow is a good tool imo for the MU.

lobos more full jump nairs in this match up as it's very easy for lucas to punish once he shields the short hop nair.

I used to hate fighting Ness. Then I started zoning him properly and I started winning. Lucas is worse so w/e lol.

TL;DR- Lobos sux :(.

Lobos, I watched a little of game 3. It seems like you was on auto pilot the whole time. You gotta mix it up. And space better if your gonna be that aggro.

The way I fight lucas is getting inside and use alot of sword attacks. They cant really do much. Specially to our bair.

FLEAAA i just wanted to stop in to tell you i love you and miss you

and i watched your video thats a sexy texture and that was a sexy bair bair pivot grab

and when the boomerang saved you from the lock ahahaha

and from now on, dropping your bomb JUST so you can instathrow it is called "the flea". imma do it

yall all need to get off fleas **** and stop being jealous

edit: oh and to lobos, lol at losing and then realizing...i don't care if it's a lucas, i'm about to camp the **** out of him and went into **** mode lol but it was too late :( pinkfresh is way too legit tho. and ibomb more!!!!

but anyways, super advice to everyone:

Ummmmmm you should never ever ever ever hesitate. Hesitation is why people lose. You should ALWAYS be doing something, don't waste your time rolling/spotdodging/airdodging/shielding, the only times you should ever do that is if you're in a FORCED situation, if you can do anything else, do that. Always do something, projectiles, aerials, airdodge to the ground and buffer more moves immediatley so that you don't waste a split second...even if you DO mess up and are in a bad situation, don't sit there and spotdodge, immediatley land in that bad spot and buffer something QUICK like a retreating bair. it's all about human reaction and most of the times even if you mess up, you can get out of it without getting punished...don't let your error mess you up again, it's like baseball lol.

but yeah never ever ever attack your opponent, there is NO SUCH THING AS AN APPROACH, REMOVE IT FROM YOUR VOCABULARY LOL. Doesn't matter if you're losing, don't ever approach. speaking of approach, wtf does that even mean?? YOU DO NOT PUT OUT AERIALS TO HIT YOUR OPPONENT, YOU PUT OUT AERIALS TO KEEP YOUR OPPONENT FROM HITTING YOU, WEEHAHEE, WEEHAHOO

you can't even say "i need to camp more", you can't say "i know how but i don't", that's just an excuse (believe me i've always used it lol)

there is literally no such thing. except camping. if you are not camping, what are you doing? losing. camping sounds worse than it really is. it doesn't mean playing like a ******. it just means playing safe. play so that you do not ever get hit. as in only put out unpunishable hitboxes. when you camp right, you WILL enjoy it. and you will laugh because you'll realize how funny it is that your opponent has no self-control, no patience, they just keep running into your attacks! mwahaha

and this

You forgot to add..

If you approach, that means your going easy on them
you reallllly reallly are. thats why people lose to ganons and lucases and marios. it's underestimation and by the time your realize it it's too late.
