I don't see how Lucky is garbage... He has a bunch of mixups, and if he needs to create a gap, it can be done by jumping back and throwing an air basketball... Plus that serves as another setup if the opponent tries to tech roll and get aggressive... Even Capcom had to bite off of his kicks when they made Juri (j/k)...
The problem is, that is still very hard to create this gap on 98UM, and he still has a very hard time with lots of characters in the game
But now in FE, it seems that he received enough buffs to make him a very capable character, where you really had to think about his potential mix ups
Aside from the usual Krauser, Rugal, Geese, and maybe Heidern, who normally gives him a hard time??? I'm definitely liking his mixups and how he can break one's guard, although its not very quick... I feel like he can setup for throws easily, and he doesn't technically feel like a true "zoning" character-- more like a hybrid with alot of hit and run tactics...
I don't know, I can't see lots of characters who will made things hard to lucky, ex yuri, eiji, and others
Like you said, he is not a zoning character per se, he felts more like a character with lot of hit and run, mix ups, etc, the problem is that everything from him feels, I don't know if crap, but just ''meh'', the normals, some specials, hell, even his command grab DM if you could call it like that doesn't feel that good, since at times doesn't even connect, add to the fact that he is not a easy character to use and you will see why he is not that good for lots of guys, even though agains, this is 98, where almost every character had a chance
Still, in FE it seems that he is truly a beast, from what I had reading his crouching C is now canceable (Krauser anyone?) he now has a very good anti air, seems to deal more damage, and overall he seems like a character that can screw with you easily
I will love to see SNKP pronounce about FE, I don't know, sell the game again, add some option so people don't bitch that is just balancing the game (Better netcode, color edit, and I don't know, SF IV like trials, arranged music and the game finally on english at least) and I think that nobody should complain about it
