Lucas
B TierLucas excels at controlling space with his special moves, particularly utilizing PK Fire from short hops to catch opponents off guard. His ability to secure stocks with PK Freeze makes him a formidable threat when opponents are offstage, while his Down Special, PSI Magnet, allows him to absorb projectiles and regain health. However, Lucas struggles against fast, aggressive characters that can close the distance quickly, making it crucial to maintain distance and use his tilts effectively to keep pressure on. Leverage his spikes, particularly with down air or back air, to punish predictable recoveries and capitalize on opponents' mistakes.

Tips for Lucas
- Winning wont bring back Claus. Just give up.
- Don't just use PK Fire from the ground, it's much safer using it out of short hop, and catches a lot of enemies trying to jump over.
- Aim PK-Freeze for where you think they'll dodge to, since your opponent is unlikely to stand still. It's okay to miss, just don't get greedy and risk getting hit if you're not confident.
- Lucas' Down B looks like it only faces one way, but he automatically flips around to absorb shots at his back.
- Learn how to Double-Jump-Cancel-ZAir. It's a difficult technique to learn, but once you master it, it gives Lucas a powerful new tool in neutral and a whole new movement option. Find some videos!
