I think he's fine. Lucario just requires solid fundamentals to do well with and since the game is pretty much a month old I think people are still ironing out their bad habits from 4. Not having kill setups does kinda suck but that's when you gotta make dem reads and force your opponent to make...

It seems like it, I'll have to mess with it later. I know in previous games you can actually reverse the direction he comes from but I've tried it and it's either gone or I'm just not doing the input fast enough.

Tiers are weird in the sense in that some people will factor in character execution along with their tools. I think Wolf is definitely high tier, or at the very least upper mid.

Yeah, I think Chrom will definitely phase out once we start getting three or four of them in top 8 lol. Also ditto on the bury. Is there a good way to mash out of it, because I played a K.Rool yesterday who buried me with down throw and he read my jump afterward and killed me off it. Thankfully...

I hardly ever grab with Luigi now unless it's an extremely hard read because of the startup. Of course there's more ways to set up for a grab, but not everyone online is like that. You can't really condition someone to shield if they're always mashing ZSS Up B or something.

I haven't really played any of them that didn't rely on cannonball and down grab kills, but what actually needs to be tested is how Lucario can break K. Rool's armor (if it's even possible) Otherwise I just treat it like most of the other matchups and just wait for them to mess up and try and...

Yeah, I do pivot f tilt and up tilt. Dash cancel tilts are a universal mechanic, it just looks like it's not possible because the cancel isn't really immediate, it comes out of the first dash animation.

I'm still getting back into the swing of him myself, but I'll pass on what I know and hopefully some of the others can give you some advice too. Get in the habit of using Aura Sphere Charge for movement/mixups, it's one of the best things about him. You can B reverse it and new to Ultimate...

There's really no point in beefing over some random over the net, trust me. Focus on improving instead.

A week before the game was out people were saying Chrom was terrible. I literally messed around with this guy for ten minutes in the lab yesterday and he's nuts. I like characters that can play neutral really well.

I've played Smash off and on over the years but Falco's always been a character I play as much as my other two (Lucario and Luigi). Anything I should really focus on with Falco aside from the dash cancel stuff and falling Uair? Specifially neutral aside from lasers and Reflector spacing.

My local arcade got the game a few days early so I spent 90% of my time messing with him. I'll say that aura definitely took a hit, I was around 120% and Puff was at 90% and he still lived from a Force Palm command grab, but I think characters don't die at percents you'd think they would...

The DLC announcement is Alex Jones. There, I saved you all the suspense.

Well this was interesting lol. Personally, any and all leaks are false until proven otherwise. People are very good at bluffing and with how vague the internet can be, anything's possible. Or impossible.

It'd be nice if the game was better about explaining her personality and why she's so protective about Corrin and her siblings. I get that supports are for that, but Fates barely explained anything as it stands.
