Lucario (SSBU)/Neutral attack

Overview

Lucario's Neutral attack combo showcased

Lucario's neutral attacks consist of a downwards paw swipe, a palm thrust and a high kick. At base aura, it does 7.5% base damage in total.

The neutral attack combo is a standard natural combo that flows great with surprisingly good consistency compared to the majority of jab combos. It transitions perfectly when hitting both a character directly or hitting a shield with identical timing.

However, it does not auto-combo naturally if whiffed. This standard jab combo doesn't lock an opponent's shield(even with absolute-max stock aura). It also does not possess consecutiveness(a hitbox looping at a rapid rate to have improved coverage), so a single press that's held is just a standalone paw swipe.
