Mario Tornado/Luigi theory

As we know, Dr. Mario is a clone of Mario and will probably be taken out of the game in Brawl. How every we also know that, taking off a few moves Luigi is ALOT like Mario.

Well... seeing as that in Brawl Mario had F.L.U.D.D. for his B down move instead of his Mario Tornado. This would mean the Luigi could keep the same B down move as he has without copying.

We also know that Mario has his Tornado still. Well, my theory was that his B up move would be his Tornado. This would also make it so that Luigi could keep his B up attack.

That being said, the only move that is like Luigi is Mario's B attack. And, correct me if I'm wrong, Mario's fire ball bounces whereas Luigi's goes straight. This would make it so that Luigi could be in Brawl without being a clone. (Even if they are the same, you could just change Luigi's B attack.)

Here's the moveset-


Mario

B up: Tornado
B dwn: Fludd
B>: Flag
B: Fireball

Luigi

B up: Uppercut
B dwn: Tornado
B>: Rocket Launch... thing :p
B Green Fire




Do you guys thing this makes sense? Discuss.

Mario still has his old ^B. The Mario Tornado is now either his dair or his down B in the air. More than likely the dair, due to the hint that it is now a "normal attack".

Also, why the Poltergust hate? Luigi has his own unique/kickass item too, you know.

God, is it really that hard to believe Sakurai traded in the Tornado for a normal attack?

Oh no no, that comment wasn't aimed at anyone directly lol. I know you're trying to defend his uniqueness.

I was referring to those who still actually consider him just like Mario in Melee and such. They play absolutely nothing like each other.

My idea is this...

Mario's B attacks just might be set up differently...Depending on which one it is. Since Mario has F.L.U.D.D. has his down-B, then that means, that could be set as Mario's down-B on the ground.

BUT!!!!!
If Mario jumps in the air and performs the down-B, that's where he might pull off the tornado.

But to put it simply:
Down-B on the ground - F.L.U.D.D.
Down-B in mid-air - Mario Tornado.

I have no clue about Luigi, though...

Has Mario's old nair been confirmed, because that seems to fit more into the ronado than the dair. Its attacks from above and drags the character into it.

Possibly...That COULD happen, but Mario's D-air has more priority than his Tornado.

Which would you rather do?
Mario's D-air falling into Bowser's U-air?
Or
Mario's Tornado falling into Bowser's U-air?

You decide...But I rather keep his old D-air. ;)
