However, Lucina continued to improve over time, and gained some other significant buffs in update [[1.1.4]], with some of them once again being shared with Marth. These improvements allowed Lucina's offense to flow more consistently than before, giving her a niche over Marth in certain matchups. Although these buffs were still not enough to enable her to achieve significant results, even from her best players like {{Sm|C-Lu}} and {{Sm|Kogarasuma}}, they still improved her perception within the community. As a result, Lucina ranked 36th on the second tier list, resulting with her being reassessed as a mid-tier character, and gaining the fourth largest rise between the first and second tier lists. Even so, players such as {{Sm|ZeRo}} and {{Sm|Dabuz}} considered Lucina's position on the tier list as too low, due to most of her strengths being shared with Marth. To reflect the drastic improvements brought about by game updates, as well as her stronger, if rare, results, Lucina was then ranked 18th on the third tier list; by extension, this was the largest rise between the second and third tier lists. | However, Lucina continued to improve over time, and gained some other significant buffs in update [[1.1.4]], with some of them once again being shared with Marth.

Although Lucina was still considered to be inferior to Marth overall, some smashers claimed her placing to be somewhat low, especially considering the briefly improved results brought by ZeRo during the spring and summer of 2017 after picking her up as a secondary, as well as better results brought by other players like Kogarasuma and {{Sm|Mr E}}. Thanks to these results, she has rised to 14th on the fourth and current tier list | Although Lucina was still considered to be inferior to Marth overall, some smashers claimed her placing to be somewhat low, especially considering the briefly improved results brought by ZeRo during the spring and summer of 2017 after picking her up as a secondary, as well as better results brought by other players like Kogarasuma and {{Sm|Mr E}}.

She is the only bottom-tier character to ever become a high-tier one and is one of the characters who have improved the most overall. | ||
Lucina also began to earn more results as Mr E got 5th at [[EVO 2018]] while defeating {{Sm|BestNess}}, {{Sm|Salem}}, {{Sm|MVD}}, and {{Sm|Shuton}} to qualify for top 8 before losing to {{Sm|CaptainZack}} and {{Sm|Nietono}} and continued to do very well with her such as getting 17th at [[Super Smash Con 2018]], 25th at [[Shine 2018]], 4th at [[Canada Cup 2018]] and 17th at both [[GameTyrant Expo 2018]] and [[DreamHack Atlanta 2018]]. These results which were previously unspoken of for Lucina have not only been more impressive than a fair amount of the characters above her, but also Marth. Due to this and with some people noting that Marth has not achieved that much success with out a secondary on top of him being significantly less consistent at killing as a character, some have said that Lucina is a superior character to Marth. This however, is highly debatable. | Lucina also began to earn more results as Mr E got 5th at [[EVO 2018]] while defeating {{Sm|BestNess}}, {{Sm|Salem}}, {{Sm|MVD}}, and {{Sm|Shuton}} to qualify for top 8 before losing to {{Sm|CaptainZack}} and {{Sm|Nietono}} and continued to do very well with her such as getting 17th at [[Super Smash Con 2018]], 25th at [[Shine 2018]], 4th at [[Canada Cup 2018]] and 17th at both [[GameTyrant Expo 2018]] and [[DreamHack Atlanta 2018]].
