Ban FD, go to DL or PS.
Laser camp, platform camp, shine him off stage. Respect his doublejump > shine spike the end of down B and the hat of his side B. Roll to the edge and CC > shine his up B. You cant really combo him so I go for the shine spikes.

patient aerials are the key here. shine is still good in this matchup because there is definitely still spike potential but you cant use it to combo really. try using more shffls in place of shine. also if luigi has to up-b just cc at the ledge and shine. stay moving and remember luigi's options are only as good as you let them be he has far less tools than fox.

I used to sort of have luigi as a secondary, and this is some of my limited (and potentially not 100% correct) knowledge:
- I dislike Yoshi's because a lot of things simply push you onto the ledge. (as luigi)
-As krazykyzo said, laser camping can be annoying (for luigi)
-Depending how good a luigi is, chances are he'll approach with some combination of d-smash, f-tilt or maybe turnaround up-tilt (which isn't quite as good)
-D-smash is safe on shield cause of low traction (luigi's), try jumping over and drilling.
-Also his recovery has very few options, if you learn how it works you can edgeguard him well.
Hope I could help!
I used to play luigi a bit, here's how I felt
-Yoshi's is an annoying stage 'cause so much stuff pushes you off, you have very little room to move around
-As krazyzyko said, laser camping and be annoying for luigi
-PS or YS are probably your best bets because of the reasons I said for YS earlier and because you can camp a bit on PS and you have a low ceiling.
-Chances are luigi will approach with a combination of wavedashes and d-smash or f-tilt
-d-smash safe on you shield 'cause of low traction, try jumping over it and drilling
Hope I could be of some help!
Sorry
nevermind
