Luigi neutral air, Back air and Up air, look identical to Mario but... Luigi`s do more damage AND knockback.

Discuss.

No offense but Mario isn't that great in Brawl. All of his ground combo's are gone. Luigi has his amazing air combo's to cope with!

i like to think that luigi is good at jumping because he strives to be like his brother - who is famous for being a great jumper. he has excelled greatly in jump height, but he obviously has not practiced his friction. in mostly recent mario games, luigi tends to jump higher and often is floaty, yes, but he slides a lot, often risking sliding off of small areas into endless pits of doom, whereas mario has great jumping ability and hardly slides at all, being a true master of jumping

don't get me wrong, i respect luigi and love him whole heartedly, but he's not as good at jumping as mario. i like this about luigi, it adds to his lovable personality
