What are some of the general ways to set up an up-b on another character. I know it varies a lot, but the one that generally works on most of the cast.
sliding jab up-b might be his most reliable one...its opponent DI dependant....but sliding up-b doesnt dissapoint..
U should be carefull against heavytiers, because jab --> upb can be easily powershield. I think, the best option is to read your oppenent very well, and try to shoryken him just 1 time in the whole match, there where he doesn't expect it.
How should I be trying to approach my opponent during a fight. Do I want to try and force them to come to me like Fox or Snake?
Nope-most of the cast has tools that can keep weegee away..so trying to force your opponent to come to you would be really hard....you hafe to get that lead and keep it...
Space-if you have this tool it comes in handy against campers...otherwise surprise nados'fireballs and retreating is all you have...(vs campy people)
that's true, the best option to attack your oppenent, is to counter attack his moves. With luigi u shouldn't strike first, for example against Marth, u would lose every contact. watch out, be carefull, wait the first strike of the oppenent, and punish his move.
Is Luigi's dair a viable spike? Or should I just be using it for the nice horizontal knockback?
If you knw where the hitbox is and you see the oppurtunity to spike BY ALL MEANS go for it...i use dair to space or hit my opponents shield and fallback haha
What is Luigi's best aerial for momentum canceling.
i would think missle>fair>uair?
really? i thought it were jump fair --> missile
What move should be my go to kill move when my opponent is in kill range? Fsmash? Nair? Up-B? Which one is the safest/easiest to set up.
Fsmash-is safe if you space it well and weegee can even spam it.
Nair/OOS nair-Nair is amazing for setups i learned this about 2 months ago..OOS nair pushes your opponents away as you full hop away safely...and nair being a killer around 120%
up-B-Is situational...going for them might be a little risky...
Does the cyclone have any practical uses outside of recovering? Same goes for the side-B.
cyclone- can be used offensively as a surprise attack.....
missle- lol i mean it might be good for mindgames but other then that you really shouldnt be using this move..
How should I be using my fireballs throughout a fight?
Fireballs-use them sparingly but you dnt wanna spam this to much...it kind leaves weegee open..
Play defensif with fireball. B neutral but jump backwards. or try to read the landing of the oppenent and fireball mindgame him, so that he's hitting from it, maybe u can punish him easier like that ^^
