Luigi Meteor Smash?

[pandathundah]

Does Luigi has a meteor smash or something? Because I want to know so that I can take my airgame to the next level!

He can meteor with his down taunt while the opponent is on the ledge or his Dair, however the sweetspot and hitbox on the Dair for the spike is extremely small. The hitbox is somewhere between where he twirls his hands and his rear end.

It's technically a Spike, because there's no meteors in Brawl thanks to no Meteor Canceling?

...I dunno :S But yeah, DAir with a very small chance of spiking and Down Taunt.

DAir's Spike only seems to work for me when I fastfall...

 

[solidxgeo]

his down A is a spiker if u get the timing right. iv done it before

D-air's hit box is around when he spins his arms. It's only out for a few frames, and is pretty hard to hit with, but just practice on a CPU in training and set it to 'Jump.' It took me around an hour to do it at a pretty good success rate and incorporate it into my gameplay, but it's worth it.

Luigi's mid-air down A can spike if it hits the right spot.

Isn't there also a hitbox that's right at luigi's toes? I know I've spiked/meteored (dunno which one it is) people as they were trying to go back up to a ledge, and I frequently drop down and Dair and they just plummet straight down. I basically hit their heads for this too.

Luigi's spike is basically at his butt. The easiest way to connect it seems to be if the opponent is above you, you can jump up into them and when the back of your head is at their feet dair. At least thats what works for me, since the frames seem to be towards the beginning of the attack, but not at the very beginning.

Also, yes there are meteor smashes and meteor cancels in brawl. Theres a big topic about it somewhere on the tac forums.

Try aiming with luigi's neck on training while CPU is jumping ive done the spike 3-4tiomes in a row now and im still practicing it to get it perfectly.

every one has their own thing to watch on either wigi or on the opponent but the only real way to do it is find yours, do training vs a jump cpu and dair over and over untillyou can hit about 50% or more, it's a very nice thing for your off stage game
