[up][up] ...Holy crap, you're right! I was a little sore at first that his normal blue outfit from Brawl seemed to be missing, but I know which colour I'm using for him now. Duster's like one of the best characters in Mother 3, I think.

The costume I used in Brawl was the red one that's way back in that picture so I'm all set.

Lucas looks pretty cool with brown hair by the way.

When the 14th comes, I'll be ready...

I really like the variation in Lucas' alts. The aforementioned Brown-Haired Lucas, Masked Man Lucas, and the one with the purple shirt are my favorites.

Regarding the screenshot with the Wii Fit Trainer, I wouldn't be surprised if the a lot of fandom makes WFT being a mother/Cool Big Sis figure for Lucas their headcanon. (Probably the latter, since Rosalina already fits the motherly figure.)

That or WFT is holding Lucas in place with its eldritch powers while Villager prepares to shove a Cucco down his pants.

Or maybe the dinosaur that killed his mom looked like a chicken and he had PTSD so he fled to WFT.

It's a shame that DLC characters just get a single generic entry in the conversations between the Kid Icarus characters. I could easily envisage something about Lucas sharing Pit's love of hot springs.

Not to mentioned the continuity errors involved, since Lucas took part in the Subspace Emissary along with Pit.

The miiverse stage is free. Only new things you have to pay for are Lucas and the Splatoon costumes(unless you already have a code for them)

[up][up] But Pit and Lucas didn't interact with each other in SSE. Lucas was teamed up with the Pokémon Trainer, while Pit joined Mario's squad.

Just because you didn't interact with someone doesn't mean you don't know who that person is.

Lucas has way better palettes this time around. I'm glad.

I wonder if his "Claus" alt will even him the name "Claus".

Not quite how the alt character palettes work.

[up] Well, for some it kinda does, but considering Claus's *clears throat awkwardly* development in the game I doubt they would retroactively give that palette swap the "Claus" title.

Say, before Lucas gets released, he seemed to be more popular than Ness in the previous game, and I'm wondering what made him more popular to use, compared to Ness?

All I noticed was that Lucas' PK Thunder kept going after dealing a hit, Ness' PK Fire was a lasting flame, and their Neutral Specials.

He was one of the only characters that got character development in The Subspace Emissary. A alot of his non special attacks were also different from the ones Ness had. (Just compare thier up smashes for a good example.)

Ness and Lucas were very distant clones. Their specials were similar but had core differences, and forward smash was decently the same, but everything else was different.

I'm pretty sure the concept of Law having limits was a translation error. -Wanderlustwarrior

Lucas is just plain easier to use, honestly. More direct specials with fewer quirks, and much more user-friendly basic attacks- His Forward Smash hits faster, his Up and Down Smashes aren't the yo-yo and pack lots of power in them, and so on.

I sure said that!

Lucas is actually considered to be significantly harder to use than Ness due to lacking a lot of the tools that make Ness very strong like a lasting PK Fire, PK Thunder II's ridiculous knockback and in general having stronger attacks.

[up]That doesn't sound like being more difficult so much as being weaker.

Lucas has his own perks, it's just not as easy to make use of them as it is with Ness. In general Lucas is looking like he'll get major benefits from the mechanics change in Sm4sh so I'm looking forward to see how he does.

I kinda hope that I'll like to use Lucas in this one. I hardly used him in Brawl.

Man, playing Ganondorf with only Strength equipment is a ton of fun. Tipped Warlock Thrust is a guaranteed shield break, and you do not want to get your shield broken in front of Ganondorf.

I'm not sure if I'll be able to relearn Lucas after spending so much time using Ness. Should be interesting.
