Lucina (SSBU)

Lucina (ルキナ, Lucina) is a playable character in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate. She was confirmed as a playable character on June 12th, 2018. She is an Echo Fighter of Marth. Laura Bailey reprises her role as Lucina in the English version of the game.

Changes from Super Smash Bros. 4

  NOTE: SmashWiki is not speculative. Please refrain from adding detailed data values derived from pre-release gameplay footage, such as the E3 demo. Such data (damage values, launch trajectories, frame data, etc.) are subject to change before the official release.

Aesthetics

  •   As with all veterans returning from SSB4, Lucina's model features a more subdued color scheme. Her clothing now has simple detailing, her hair has been reshaped, and her face appears sharper.

Attributes

  •   Like all characters, Lucina's jumpsquat animation now takes three frames to complete.

Ground attacks

  •   Jab's animation has been altered to swing in a more horizontal arc. This appears to lower its vertical range.
  •   Jab's attack connects more reliably, allowing for more consistent damage off of the move.

Special Moves

  •   Shield Breaker can now be manually angled.
  •   Shield Breaker now only has the Parallel Falchion glow purple instead of Lucina's whole body.
  •   Dancing Blade is significantly faster.

Trivia

  • Lucina and Dark Pit are the first and only full clones to keep their full clone status for multiple games in a row.
  • At least two of Lucina's screenshots on the Ultimate site allude to events from Fire Emblem Awakening.
    • The screenshot depicting her alongside Marth alludes to their kinship as descendant and ancestor, respectively.
    • The screenshot of her taunting defensively in front of Charizard alludes to "The Threat of Silence" paralogue from Awakening, in which the Shepherds must protect the draconic Tiki.
