Luigi's match up chart is so off... seriously...

[LuigiKing]

I realize making an entire match up for every character against every other takes painstaking amounts of time to do, and not everything can be right by any stretch, but seriously, Luigi's match ups are so off its embarassing. Luigi has a lot of great match ups against good characters, such as Diddy and Olimar, but almost all of them show poor little red Xs. I think Luigi has some of the best matchups, he should at least be neutral against Snake, and like I said before, has a lot of good ones against high tier characters. The only problem I can find is his matchups against D3 and MK, which are definately huge problems, but all things considered, he should have a lot more positives. Opinions on the matter?

That chart is worthless. Don't pay it any mind.

I have thought of this many times lol. But I believe that we should develop the Match-up's here in the Luigi Match-up discussion on these boards and as soon as we have them close to complete go to the chart thread and give them all the info/insight on the matchups .

I think Diddy is = with Luigi

 

[Mabo]

Of COURSE Luigi should have more positives. He's Luigi, for the love of God. He ***** all in his path.
But in all seriousness, Luigi seems like he shouldn't have as many negatives as he does.

I agree. I also thought Luigi was good against DDD. DDD can't chain grab Luigi because of his low traction and he's a huge target for upB.

Overall Luigi is a hugely underrated character.

 

[AlAxe]

Never mind. Just checked the DDD boards. That's really really broken. F*** King DDD.

I agree he is very underrated.

I told my one of my friends that I started maining Luigi and he just laughed and said "no one can main Luigi, he only has like two kill moves". I had to correct him and say that he had many more than two kill moves. Its amazing how not many people know a lot about Luigi or don't use him. He's got flaws but he's a great character even with those flaws.

Someone really needs to get in that matchup thread and show them why, anyway.

*CoughEtenCough*

It really only works when you get grabbed at high damage so it's not that big of a loss if you can break out of grabs very quickly, since they need to do grab attacks for it to work right, and by the time you have enough damage to not be able to mash out with the grab attacks that stock you had was mostly gone anyway.

Remember that Luigi is an explosive. He's able to play with the banana throwin boy.

The one thing I don't get is how exactly does luigi have a massive advantage over sonic? I know he has priority x10 over sonic but sonic's speed always bites me whenever I face one...

Cause just like Luigi got a bunch of red x because people think he's poor Sonic got it even worse. That big green check might not even be true for Luigi versus Sonic, but honestly, I wouldn't know. What entertains me is how Sonic, being such a fast character, is no melee Captain Falcon and actually requires a lot of patience to find the time to exploit his movement speed. Matches with Sonic are normally slower or longer, not faster and take place in less time. So weird. Sometimes I pity him. Then he taunts, and I am forced to misfire KO him for being so obnoxious.

That made me lol'd so hard. Yea luigi's great. What i love about him his moves are like humilation moves for such as taunt spike "if you ever land it* the shoruyken uppercut punch, his misfire and others.

I'm pretty sure if you killed with Weegee's down taunt, they'd want to kill you just as badly.

But who cares.
