The Abe Lincoln is a move that can be pulled off to gimp mainly Fox and Falco, but it does work on other characters like Falcon, Ganon, and a few others.
The initial set-up for the move, against fox and falco, works by getting them off of the ledge, and depending on how they recover determines your next move. . . .
If they use the illusion and are slightly above the ledge, just shoot a fireball just quick enough to stop them before they reach the ledge, from there you wavedash forward off of tge ledge facing your opponent, by now they drop from the fireball and are forced to do the fire fox, or fire bird thingy. . . anchor yourself so your slightly above them, but can still grab the ledge; as soon as they start going vertical, do a reverse up-b. Luigi will turn around and grab the ledge, and because they will only get hit by the one coin (one coin i.e. penny, hence the name Abe Lincoln), which has virtually no knockback, causes them to drop and plummet to their death.
If you think they are going to sweet spot the ledge with the illusion, wavedash off the ledge, and then shoot the fireball so it's level with them, you should still be able to get them with the coin.
It's important that you force Fox or Falco out of the forward b phase and into a fire fox phase, the gimp doesn't work very well on the illusion, and with falco you usually will get spiked, thus being reverse-gimped.
Once you get the timing down you'll find out when you can and can't pull it off, and when you do just shout "ABE LINCOLN" to the heavens.
I'll have some videos of its application soon, in case i didn't explain it well enough.
Happy gimping to all the fellow Luigi smashers
