UFA 2023 - MKBigBoss (ROB) Vs. Nitox (Lucas) Smash Ultimate - SSBU

[@frostyfrostbite406]

Dude nitox's recovery mixups are insane, bro singlehandedlly inspired me to play Lucas.

Let's go fellow Lucas main 👍🏻

That was a great match, though I wish Nitox used his f-smash more often? Just reflecting those tops once in a while could do some good, since it's rather fast too

[@vickanzlanworld8038]

One time that nitox misses the f-smash can mean death, and the reward is like 20% damage to a rob that can absolutely shield the reflected laser and gyro

What a great match. This is the best Lucas I have ever seen.

[@JPG_3000]

He’s great, but have you seen regalo or blucas? They move around like magic and absolutely wreck. I feel like either of them would have taken down this ROB fairly handily. I’ve been watching their matches and wanted ntx to use more air and ledge pressure. Where was the bair spike?

@@JPG_3000I think Nitox is a bit better than Regalo but I’d love to see that matchup

USE THE BAT OMG

[@owenduffy5745]

Yeah whacking the gyro with stick helps a lot even when it's just on the ground you can at least make it YOUR gyro

[@twelvenation6393]

It’s just so slow to use, I hardly use it myself

[@owenduffy5745]

@@twelvenation6393 frame 11 isn't that bad you should try to use it more when you can

[@twelvenation6393]

@@owenduffy5745 I use pk freeze way too much, but I use it for close range, I’m really good with it. Just natural attacks are not my strong point. I’m in elite smash but just stagnant at the 13 million rank

[@marioorozco4921]

Nice

[@kension7]

Feels like this is proof that your little brother's strategy of mashing the B button is a valid, high tier strategy. Against the toppest of top players though, it wont be.

[@JPG_3000]

Regalo or Blucas would have been less predictable and put on more offensive pressure. Wish some Ness/Lucas players wouldn’t spam so hard. They’re way stronger when utilizing all of the crazy things Lucas or Ness can actually do, outside of just spamming specials.

[@vickanzlanworld8038]

Sadly lucas is a bad character, cannot contest to characters with insane frame data like rob, and gerring one hit with lucas just ends up with a combo of like 30% damage if you somehow get a third aerial, lucas has to be lame in this kind of MU

[@kension7]

@@vickanzlanworld8038 not true, Lucas is just extremely high skill cap to play well. He has crazy powerful combos (zair chains, nair chains) especially against a big body heavy with slow aerial startup like rob.

[@vickanzlanworld8038]

@@kension7 A zair chain that at most gives you a 25% combo, and is hard to consistently execute (like you have two frames to do the imput) no meaningful range and no way to safely pressure opponents behind or on top of you Nair loops only two times if done with fastfall after that it comboes with a fair, believe me man, lucas is a low tier for a reason But to be fair he has a lot of fucking cheese and a decent zoning tool so thats what the best lucas use if they want a chance Edit: He also doesn't have good out of shield, that nair is hot garbage, almost any up b out of shield interrupts it in the middle of the attack
