Hmm some things that immediately come to mind...

You should rarely (if ever) complete the jab combo. One jab, and then either Grab, Dsmash, Shoryuken, Jab Cancel... the possibilities are endless. Kind of like on 0:49 in the second video, but only one jab instead of two (tougher to block)

Against Lucario, honestly I think you're a lil too agressive. The Lucario was aggressive too, and you could've taken GREAT advantage of that. Get used to putting up your shield when in a neutral position.
Luigi can combo great when the opportunity comes, but if you rush in with fists flying, you're more likely to get punished.

Use fireballs to gauge how your opponent reacts with little risk.

Also, you NEVER want to be below Lucario. Your best bet for air battle with Lucario is with your Bair from the side.

Against Metaknight, I got nothin'. I gave up on that match up a long time ago. =(

Yeah, Delvro hit the nail on the head here. Just work on combos. Whether it is a jab issue or a fireball/approach issue.
I couldn't watch the first video... -_-

have you guys ever tried jab -> grab -> pummel till opponent breaks free (ground release) -> jab -> to w/e you want

worked pretty well on falco for me cuz they always expect a down throw after you grab them
