So I've been a casual Luigi main for quite a few years, but it's only recently that I started to play him seriously. I used to play Brawl for the most part, but after discovering the competitive Smash scene and finding out just how faulty of a game Brawl is (at least at a competitive level), I decided to pick up Project M (no access to Melee) and I haven't really turned back since.
All this to say, I've been watching the top Luigi players (Abate, Vist, etc) and seeing the amount of wavedashing that they do somewhat discourages me as I have difficulties with that technique. Is spamming Luigi's wavedash absolutely essential as a Luigi main? Or should it be used more in moderation?
As a side question, what is the best button setup for wavedashing with Luigi? At this point I've been sticking to the default setup (L and R = shield, Z = Grab, Y = Jump), but I know that there are other setups out there.
