 Lucas uses {{s|wikibound|Duster}}'s [[Rope Snake]] from ''Mother 3'' to perform a [[tether recovery]]. The Rope Snake is also a [[taunt]], where Lucas looks at the snake and argues with it. Lucas also utilizes Duster's Rope Snake for his grabs, giving him a ranged grab, much like {{SSBB|Link}}, {{SSBB|Toon Link}}, {{SSBB|Samus}}, and {{SSBB|Olimar}}. Like Ness, all of his special moves, as well as his Final Smash, derive from in-game attacks that are instead learned by another character, in his case, Kumatora, not Lucas himself.
-Lucas currently ranks 30th on the [[tier list]] at the very bottom of Lower-Mid tier and the lowest rank of the newcomers and is his worst tier placement in the series. Lucas possesses above average speed and mobility, as well as very powerful smash attacks with fast start-up (forward smash) or very large disjointed hitboxes (up and down smashes), a great and versatile recovery with several options, fast attacks, and multiple attacks that can setup additional blows effectively. However, Lucas possesses a subpar aerial game with some problematic aerial moves (such as B-air) or aerials that are just inferior compared to what other characters possess, a lack of KO moves outside his smash attacks (limiting his versatility in being able to finish off an opponent), and a rather poor [[grab]] game, possessing a low reaching [[tether]] grab (relative to his peers like Olimar) and lacking any effective setup throws outside of low percents. His most major flaw though, which is often cited as the reason for his low tier placement, is the 10 additional frames of [[lag]] he suffers when [[grab release]]d on the ground, similar to the character he is a semi-clone of, {{SSBB|Ness}}. This makes him vulnerable to grab release followups from nearly every character, as well as a 0-death grab release and an [[infinite]] grab release from {{SSBB|Marth}} and {{SSBB|Donkey Kong}} respectively. Overall, Lucas has generally poor [[matchup]]s (with four especially terrible due to serious grab release issues from {{SSBB|Marth}}, {{SSBB|Snake}}, and {{SSBB|Donkey Kong}}, giving him several hard {{b|counter|matchup}}s, while being even with the lower-tiered {{SSBB|Bowser}} due to the aforementioned problem), and poor [[tournament]] results.
