Luigi's Counter Picks

For most characters, if you down tilt around 90%, it puts the opponent into an automatic tech chase. More likely than not, they will miss the tech, which leads to a guaranteed jab-lock.

All I have to say against any of the weak opponents above is, jump cancel x2 with a down air In between then up B.

Go for jablocks to get an early kill.

For Luigi: Plunger combos into down air off stage at mid to high percent. It's usually best to fast fall the zair so you have maximum time to get the dair

I main him, so I think that you should punish up -b landings on stage with super jump punch or if you're not confident enough, you should use cyclone or grab.

For Luigi: If you don't know the 0 to death or if it's difficult on a certain character, usually down throw -> fair -> ff nair -> up tilt/up air/fair -> imagination works best

For Luigi: Remember that misfire can hurt you as well! Particularly, if you misfire under PS2, Town, or Smashville, it can be an issue

For Luigi: Some of Luigi's most underrated neutral tools are ff zair and down tilt. Both can combo into things such as grab, dash attack, and f smash. A common approach for Luigi is fair -> ff zair

mash that down-b till the button ain't show a b anymore

For Luigi: Best OOS options are nair (fastest), up B (most killing power), up smash (best range on ground), and fair/bair (best range in air)

Down throw>Short Run>Jump> Super jump punch

Cyclone has frame 1 invincibility so it is his best tool for combo breaking

Against Luigi: Getting hit by green missle off stage (as long as you're not as misfire kill %) is a great way to easily edgeguard Luigi since he loses a lot of distance this way

For Luigi: For ledgetrapping, mix in a lot of plungers (both fast fall and higher above ledge), dtilt, and dair -> ff nair to catch neutral get up and jumps. Dsmash and bair can catch rolls

Cyclone at ledge is a good ledge trapping tool that covers roll/neutral getup and beats getup attack. Kills around 140 depending on DI on weight. Dtilt/zair are also very good against ledge stalling.

Maybe you could n-air fast fall on Cloud without limit and without double jump, off stage to possibly gimp him with Luigi?

if you are in a situation where you think you might get hit try using down b it has more priority than some smash attacks and will completely take your opponent by surprise when their attack failed.

Luigi gets juggled easily since he has bad air mobility, DI away from your opponent to stop getting juggled.

Practice the zero to death combo and alternatives for staling. Practice combos in general and try using crawl on characters that spam projectiles. Note this might not always work but give it a try...

and make sure that you mix up the approach and keep in mind that if the opponent reads it can be punished

Double-jump is fundamental for Luigi to recover: use it only if you are certain you are not going to be hit out of stage, otherwise a pillar of light from out the screen is your fate.

in a jab lock situation, Jab>Fireball>Upb works for extra dmg

Against Luigi: To get out of Luigi's 0 to death, you can SDI the down airs. Luigi can follow it, but it makes it significantly harder. Usually SDI in is best, but SDI out for mix ups

Against Luigi: Down throw -> up B and down throw -> cyclone are DI dependent. DI out is the hardest to get, but is also the most common. Make sure to DI in sometimes. No DI an option but easy to react

For Luigi: 0 to death works on most characters around 0-15%, usually 7% (7% is the damage of 1 fireballs). The most common is down throw -> sweetspot dair ->ff nair ->ss dair ->ff uair ->dashing up B

Taunt spike. Taunt Spike again. Taunt spike once more. That is all.

Against Luigi: Luigi has the 2nd worst airspeed in the game. Abuse this to keep him in the air and edgeguard him off stage

For Luigi: Do NOT spam grab. If people know anything about the luigi matchup, it's that he likes to grab. Nearly his whole kit starts combos, and nair dtilt zair and autocncl fair lead to grab anyway.

For/Against Luigi: Luigi loves to use down B (comes out frame 10, invincible for its first 7 frames) and nair (comes out frame 3) out of hitstun. This can be good for breaking combos.

How to get out of his infinite combo

down grab, forward air, nair, regrab, (down grab), down air (spike) nair, and then it leads to three options. They aerial attack, shield and up b. They airdodge, predict it and up b. Or they do nothin

if your opponent attacks from ledge you can sheild at it and punish with up b.

Down grab, fair, nair, down grab, down air, nair. 3 possibilities, airdodge, up b punish. Aerial, shield, punish. Or just up b. Shield immediately as it works for all decisions.

His grab sucks but it has great combos. Dair for combos and bair for kills at low-ish %. zair is good for bashing recoveries. Also try to zone with neutral B. Dair off stage dthrow combos punish w upb

LUIGI BEAST BELMOMTS. WHAT TYPE OF COCAINE ARE PEOPLE DRINKING. YALL ARE DUMBASSES

If your opponent uses a ledge attack, try to dodge it and punish with Up B

How do you confuse Luigi? put him in a round arena ( Arena Ferox) and tell him to sit in the corner.😜 PS Dont play as luigi in Arena Ferox

Great K.O. options on lightwheats,mediums and sometimes heavyweights.

If your opponent is not great at DI or they are just bad in general, down throw up b kills around 70 on most characters and down throw down b can kill at around 100, so spam grabs at all times

Use his Taunt if you want to get Easy clips to over Powered

just down-throw everytime.

His Taunt is too over Powered dude

Based ******* dumbass no fundies **** in hand character

Uptilt UpB is a thing and kills as early as dthrow upB! It heavily depends on their DI tho

When your opponent touches your shield, use up b, it's completely screws them up every time

Be the little ***** you are and infinite like the little ***** **** your are.

luigi is so bad ao if u main him you are a noob

Don’t do anything this ***** sucks lmao

Don't play him. if you do plan on playing him, overuse grab and up special, my friend always wins doing that, and i cant find a good counter :/

**** luigi hes a big ****. I dont like him
