Lucina (SSBU): Difference between revisions

(I should have clarified that Lucina’s horizontal recovery is better because her hitbox is slightly wider, not because she moves further. Thanks memoryman)

*{{buff|Lucina's [[up tilt]] (named "Anti-air Slash" in the in-game tips) has a unique timing-based sweetspot. On the later half of the slash, the attack does more damage while also having weaker knockback. The combination of less knockback and more damage allows her up tilt to rack more damage than Marth's as long as she is facing away from her opponent.}}

**{{nerf|Since the timing-based sweetspot deals less knockback, it can not be used to reliably KO as much as Marth's variant.}}

*[[Shield Breaker]]:
**{{buff|Lucina's Shield Breaker's animation is different. She leans farther back during its start-up; trembles more exaggeratedly while rearing her arm back; and takes a step forward during its thrust. This marginally improves Lucina's horizontal recovery potential compared to Marth's, due to her hitbox being slightly wider when using tbis move. This change is also reflected when {{SSBU|Kirby}} copies this.}}
