I'm been wondering lately if Rosalina and Luma can be played aggressively rather than the normal wall that she is. If you play Guilty Gear, kind of like a Zato=1 playstyle. Although, I'm wondering how effectively her N-Special can be used in this aggressive playstyle. Maybe to be used an a opener with desynced lunar lands? Give your peoples opinions in the chat about this topic.

Playing Rosalina aggressively is absolutely possible and she's actually pretty great as an aggressive character. Look up falln for an aggressive Rosalina.

An optimally played Rosalina would make use of both her aggressive and defensive traits, and more. And mix them up and use them where most appropriate.

Unfortunately, Rosalina doesn't actually have a very good player base overall and most Rosalina mains don't play other characters that focus purely on aggression (doing so helps you get the hang of the concept), which is why the "super safe wall" play style is so commonly used and only that. Not because it's better 100% of the time, as it has obvious holes.

Luma has some fast moves so some agression can definitly be used. If you are willing to commit to a agressive playstyle, make sure to learn her optionselects on the backhit of a landing nair, not labbed that but saw dabuz and kirbykid lab that like a year ago and it seemed really really worth it to learn if you can find a good way of practicing it.
