Lucario vs King Dedede

In the matchup against King Dedede, take advantage of Lucario's ability to counter gordos with his Aura Sphere; positioning yourself correctly can allow you to deflect the gordo right back at him, potentially punishing his crouch taunt. Be cautious when using your Aura Sphere, as Dedede's neutral special can reflect it and increase its power, so it's best to release it only when you have a clear setup. Instead, consider firing a single Aura Sphere when he's near a gordo, as he may inadvertently hit himself with it. Maintain your distance and use your mobility to dodge Dedede's heavier attacks while looking for openings to exploit his slower movement.
