Listen Guys. You probably don't know me but I'm one of the top Luigi's players out there. The reason you don't know me like that is because I have not been to many tourneys which will change soon. Im from Indiana and play the best hear all the time going back and forth with them. I play people like Count(Diddy Kong), Renegade (Snake, Ike), Krystedez (Wario, Pit) , 4Bidden (Fox, MK) and Sovereign (ZSS, Kirby). Count, Renegade and Krystedez are preety well known Krystedez(Best Wario IMO) for beating DEHF at MLG. Renegade is known as one of the best Ikes after San and his Snake is legit. I thought that I'd let you know a little bit about me so u can't think I'm just some rookie trolling on to the topic.
Anyway Im posting this thread because I want to see Luigi do better at more tournaments. The only way for this to happen is for us Luigi's to share our strategies and useful techs. After playing with all of the Top Tier tier characters for a while I found out that almost every Top tier character has a winning tactic like most characters. Of course some are better than others. Luigi has those move too. When playing with Luigi you should only use your safe moves when trying to attack. The problem most Luigi mains have is they get overly aggressive when feeling as if they have a "COMBO" going. When you get overly aggressive with Luigi thats when you can suffer. If you play smart get the lead in percentage just let your enemy come to you. When they do so they are at a disadvantage because they have more actions to anticipate you doing. Like Boss said in the other thread turtling is a great technique. Don't be afraid to play gay by running away after you hit them. When you do this this causes the opponent to get frustrated and make unsafe movements and decisions self more viable to getting SHORYUKEN.
Tips on Landing the SHORYUKEN:
1. Train your opponents into spot dodging(like make the other player get used to spot dodging) by using up smash tilted up or down smash. You can catch more opponents with SHORYUKEN off of a well read spot dodge then off of the jab.
2. Play with tap jump on and learn how to perfect shield. When you perfect shield any of your opponents move automatic SHORYUKEN.(Practice on CPU and make this a habit)
3. Jab cancel a lot in the match so that after you trained your opponent to smash DI away you can jab once and instead of blocking watch them buffer some smash DI walk over nicely and SHORYUKEN.
Tips on Landing the Misfire Headbutt:
1. When juggling your opponents go for the misfire more often. This will do two things to your opponents. This will either make them aware that you will you go for the misfire and they will try hard not to get in a position to get hit by it sometimes forgetting the strategy they had against you. The other situation that will happen is it will hit them and they will die in most cases cause them to play overly aggressive since most people hate getting killed by randomness.
2. Have your opponent chase you a lot in the match with out doing an attack. Train them to know they have to chase you down and hit you. From time to time use quick reverse side b and you will never know sometimes you will get it.
3. Whenever you can get or catch your opponent off stage you should go for it from time to time. When characters are trying to recover they can't usually air dodge any attack because it sends them down. In that case it leaves your opponent with two options. Either getting hit with the side b(hopefully misfire) or using their up b recovery sooner than wanted hitting you back toward the stage cause them to sometimes to mistime it.
4. Don't ever use a random headbutt because you think that the next one is not a misfire if you do so you might waist an actual misfire in the process.
This is all I will share with you guys for now I want to see how you respond to this. If you would like to see me in action I will put up some videos just request it. I hope this helps out some.
Jab, Jab, Jab
1. The first part of Luigi's BnB. Luigi's jab is very great but heavily underused. His jab is fast enough to stop a fox that hits you with his one-two jab and goes for a grab. His jab also has decent range.
2. You should use jab to push your opponent away from you as well as when they run in from time to time. Its kinda of like a reset button.
3. If your opponent shields your first jab and they are on top of you jab cancel and grab them. Mix this up with all three jabs so your opponent won't think to block grab after the first one every time. If they do it too early they wont get the grab and will get hit with the second jab.
OOS(Out Of Shield) attacks
1. These right here are the second part of our BnB(Bread and Butter). When playing an aggressive opponent and you get used to their attacking patterns OOS them with fair, dair, neutral air. Make them back up and try a new approach. If you play the game safe once you get the lead your opponent will always rush into you and then you can go to your OOS options.
2. Save neutral air after your oppenent is at about 65-70% in damage. Once they hit 128-140% damage percent a neutral air OOS is almost guaranteed to hit them.
3. If your opponent uses an attack like an jab on your shield and their in SHORYUKEN kill range go ahead and up b OOS them. Very useful on characters that have jabs with no push back or jabs that people use when your really close on them.
