Lucas (SSBU)

Lucas (リュカ, Lucas) is a playable character in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate. He was confirmed as a playable character on June 12th, 2018.

Changes from Super Smash Bros. 4

  • Change Like other characters, Lucas always faces the screen regardless of which direction he turns. This affects his movesets as well (such as the end of his up-tilt animation), all of which appear to be mirrored.
  • Change PK Fire now has its PSI graphics from Mother 3 when fired and upon hitting someone.
  • Change PK Starstorm is now similar to its Brawl iteration, firing meteors inwards towards the center of the stage, but at a slower rate and with slower meteors. His animation no longer reuses Ness' Final Smash animation and instead is more similar to his animation in Brawl. Lucas is also assisted by Kumatora and Boney.
  • Change Lucas is now angry on his standing grab animation.

Trivia

  • Lucas is the only character who has been a starter, downloadable, and unlockable character, as he was each in Brawl, Smash 4, and Ultimate, respectively. Which means he had all three different kinds of availability in the series.
    • He is also the only character to not have his game released outside of Japan without including Amiibo functionality such as Super Mario Maker.
