I’m planning on doing some more Lucario gameplay soon. If you’re interested in Lucario or videos about him including analyzing gameplay on what and what not to do in matches, sub for more!

Neutral B is prob aura sphere, Lucario’s signature move

[@LuceDGooseVT]

One thing to keep in mind about the stock differences affecting Aura; the inverse is also true. If you have a stock advantage, you'll be at an Aura disadvantage. Not only will being a stock or so ahead lower your aura growth, but your aura ceiling as well. I think being 2 stocks ahead lowers your max aura potential to 130% with a lower multiplier as well

[@glueman7761]

JoeCario good information. Didn’t know it lowered the ceiling but did know it lowered aura gain when ahead a stock or two. Thanks for the info!

[@3waycrash]

Great guide! Would love to see more content with Lucario!

[@glueman7761]

3waycrash Definitely will be making some gameplay soon. Stay tuned for more! 👍🏻

No matter how many guides I watch, it's always easier said than done, it either goes in one ear and out the other or my hands just don't work and can't keep up with my brain which in turn can't keep up with Lvl 9 CPU on anything but my mains. Plus bad habits of attack attack attack to overwhelm my opponent get in the way, I love dps to much, I don't see myself ever going pro so I don't see me getting a coach(don't have the budget, plus the teachings may just go to waste)

[@sparrowthunder5286]

I plan on picking up Lucario as a main and I’m gonna say, this was the best Lucario guide I found yet. Thank you so much 🙏🏻

[@glueman7761]

SparrowThunder appreciate it man! Sorry my audio is kinda bad, was one of my first vids 😅

[@sparrowthunder5286]

Glue Man no problem dude :)

[@Quash_HS]

Landing. NAIR is amazing

[@glueman7761]

Yeah it is! Sorry I forgot to mention it, thanks for the extra input!!!

[@mini-botco.4364]

A few tips from me: Get good at Up-Air. Juggling with Up-Air will rack up damage fast. If you are playing with final smashes Lucario's will do more damage at high aura, and will place you in the center of the small and medium size stages, so you can use it as an easy recovery. Great video btw!

[@glueman7761]

Thanks for the info and compliment! Up air is a great move if you can hit it and it kills too!

1.6k views and 39 subscribers what a cruel world It was a nice video you won a sub

[@glueman7761]

ItsToLate 1800 hey thanks man! And yeah it sucks but the KZbin journey is a marathon not a sprint. I will be doing more guides in the future so stick around for more!

[@Brightside1738]

Hey thx for they guide man. I was trying to find a good lucario guide and yours was the best by far. Keep up the good work fam.

[@glueman7761]

HOTDOG MAN! Glad you enjoyed it! My goal was to make a guide that covered not just moves but neutral as well which not a lot of people do. I appreciate it!

[@frazjack229]

Best guide I seen for Lucario great job!

[@WorstGen.]

Good video been trying to main him for awhile keep it up

[@glueman7761]

Sharingan Vision thanks man! Appreciate it, one of my earlier vids 🙏🏻

[@tetzy3882]

I want to start maining lucario because of his low play rate and excited to see how good his throw game is!!

[@glueman7761]

Tetzy28 - Brawl Stars he’s pretty fun to play cause he can kill early with high aura and he’s more fun to play because no one plays him like you said. His throws aren’t the best at comboing because people can DI out of them but if you can hit them, it does a lot of damage if you have aura. Glad you’re manning him! We need more people playing him!

[@professorlapis8305]

Me too but it sucks that his throws are horrible, except maybe back throw because you can tech chase

[@mattfunnyvids8711]

Glue man thanks for the advice because lucario is my main and I’m trying to get better with him and doing what showed me helped a lot thank of yes I subbed to and post noti👍🏻

[@glueman7761]

BlackFlame_YT thanks man for the sub! Glad it helped you a lot!

[@NerdEmoji1067]

TYSM Btw ppl DONT take dmg on porpoise just to get aura I totally spelt that wrong

[@Thecrimsonchin0]

Lots of great information. Next time can you provide time stamps please?

[@glueman7761]

Alex Connor Yeah I can definitely do that. Next video I’m doing is a cloud guide that will be releasing next day or so. Will put time stamps in the description or comments so you all can skip to the parts you need! Good idea and thanks for the input! Glad you found it helpful!

[@Thecrimsonchin0]

Glue Man for sure Man. A lot of good information, I personally didn’t need the moves breakdown just the stuff on neutral and advanced techniques. Recently picked up lucario and I’m loving it. In the near future could you possibly do Pit(s) or Wii Fit Trainer (my main) there are no particularly good guides on those two characters

[@glueman7761]

Alex Connor yeah I will definitely do the time stamps from now on, and yes, I will try to get a pit and wii trainer guide out soon! My friend mains wii fit and is very good with her and I will get his advice for the video. Also, in my newest guide (cloud) and probably future guides, I am starting to give tips on using the different characters moves when I go over each move, so it’s up to you if you want to skip over that still and go straight to neutrals. Most of the move tips will probably be included again in neutral talk anyway though!

[@universalf5185]

3k views amazing!

[@glueman7761]

Brecken Wall thanks man, didn’t think I’d ever get a vid with this many!

[@Johan_Yominola]

The KZbin algorithms are wildn

[@redkoala86]

Lucario is basically Terry

[@CJ-zm5dw]

What are all Lucario's Tech

[@smothepro1717]

Only reason I’m not subscribing is because you’re at 269 subs and I don’t want to ruin it

[@glueman7761]

Very reasonable

[@smothepro1717]

I am now subscribed because somebody else subbed

[@bromicorn]

Won 2 match in a row with him but i really need to knowhis moves a little better

[@glueman7761]

Hey the more you play, the more you learn. Even if you lose a lot in the future, just don’t worry about gsp and focus on just playing

[@ghst7848]

I really want to main Lucario, is it worth it?

[@glueman7761]

GHØST I believe lucario is good enough to main but definitely have a back-up because he does have some bad matchups. Playing lucario is very rewarding but also punishing as sometimes you will kill someone very early because of his aura at high percents but at other times you will get killed early and not be able to use ur aura to damage and kill ur opponent, causing u to lose. All in all he’s very good but if u die early u are at a big disadvantage, if u enjoy him, definitely worth maining

[@ghst7848]

@@glueman7761 ,thanks for the advice man, u also did a really good job with this video

[@glueman7761]

GHØST thanks man I appreciate it!

[@Piccolololmao]

@@glueman7761 what is his bad match ups and what secondary should I play?

[@glueman7761]

Azel Roth so id say that heavy projectile spammers can be a nuisance because Lucario doesn’t have a reflection and he won’t be able to charge his aura sphere much. Also sword characters can be hard to approach because they out range him, granted he can charge aura sphere and use force palm for range so focus on those against sword characters and get in when they make a mistake and use counter if they spam ariels. In terms of a secondary, I’d say paluntena is good cause she has a reflect and good projectiles and is a top tier character. In general, lucario doesn’t struggle that much in match ups I don’t find, just try to survive especially against heavies cause u don’t wanna die early as lucario due to his aura mechanic!
