I played against a Rosalina & Luma today for the first time today. I had a lot of fun playing, even though they totally beat my ass... I was playing Rosalina & Luma as well but got completely outplayed, then switched to Samus, which seems to be a tough matchup, or maybe I'm just bad.
The things I noticed they did were the strongest were Rosalina approaching with a dash attack, occasionally mixing it up with a grab. That dash attack is ridiculous when paired with Luma as it can't be spot dodged or stopped by a lot of attacks as Luma will just trade the hit and cancel the counter attack, allowing Rosalina's hit to connect. My only realy option was to shield, which was then easily read and punished with a grab.
It was so problematic for me to even damage Rosalina herself, any projectiles would just get blocked by Luma or Gravity Pulls, forcing me to fight close range, where in the few matches I played I didn't really notice anything I could use to outspeed or outrange Rosalina. Maybe that's just a Samus specific issue.
Are Rosalina & Luma this good against all projectile users? I never really noticed how annoying she is until playing against her. Has anyone else here played against good Rosalina & Luma players so far?
