—Introduction Tagline

Lucina (ルキナ, Rukina) is confirmed to have a playable appearance in Super Smash Bros. 4. She is a moveset clone of Marth and indeed the first clone to be revealed for Smash 4. She is slightly shorter than Marth, giving her a smaller hitbox.

Known moveset

• Lucina is a clone of Marth, meaning her moveset and animations will primarily be based off of his. In a MiiVerse post, Sakurai explains that, "even a small difference in abilities" gives a character their own roster slot, citing Lucina as an example. The extent of the cloning is currently unknown, though the following moves are known to share animations:
  • Fighting stance and idle poses.
  • Jump animations.
  • Neutral aerial.
  • Up aerial.
  • Spot dodge.
  • All special moves.
  • Side taunt.
• Unlike Marth, her sword does not have a tipper hitbox, meaning every part of her sword will deal equal damage. Her sword trails also appropriately lack the accentuated tip, and are instead a full white blur.
• She appears to have unique taunts including one where she pulls out the mask she used to disguise her identity and take on Marth's.

Trivia

• Although acting as a newcomer to Super Smash Bros, Lucina was not depicted as such on the front page of the Super Smash Bros. 4 Official Site; she was only given a small slot like the returning veterans. However, her profile page also displayed the word "newcomer" and the mobile site still gives Lucina a large slot like other newcomers. The reason for this discrepancy is unknown.
• Robin and Lucina's trailer is the first one to reveal two newcomers and the second to reveal a veteran after Greninja's, and their trailer also marks the first reveal of a second newcomer from the same series (Fire Emblem).
• Lucina's SSB4 official art is posed identically to official art of her disguised as Marth from Fire Emblem: Awakening.
