Ok so I decided to finally make this thread.
Here are all the moves that Swordfighter has that can launch Luma
OK now what moves are the best for actually launching Luma.
Well Jabs and D-Tilts are move you are throwing out on neutral regardless of who you are playing so those are going to be used in neutral.
If you grab Rosalina use F-throw or B-Throw depending on where Luma is.
Dash Attack, D-air, and Slash Launcher are always a launch and they have very little start up so using them to launch Luma even if you get punished might be a good idea depending on where Luma is. Slash launcher gets extra attention because the effective input timing of it is the least and you can also do it in the air (granted using it is suicide).
F-air can be used to punish Rosalina's recovery hitting luma for all three hits when she grabs the ledge.
