You're still waiting to play your matches?

How does that even work? MLG won't compensate the winner after this period of time, will they?

i got sooooo much luigi swag on me right now.

 

[jbandrew]

lol @ the hippie hat, hippie wins.

Yo guys I'm back to Luigi... I'm so sorry I stopped using him in tournament but that's all changed now!! Using him @ KTAR against Will 2nd match (vid is up) and seeing him so slow and just... not up to par anymore. So today I played with Luigi ALL day and I'm glad to say he's back and he's gonna stay there!! Watch out for Jband, his Luigi's comin in hard at the next NJ tournament

Note: I have not dropped MK, I may use him if Luigi somehow gets crushed or if I feel a NEED to use him. I will be going Luigi for @ LEAST 1st match of every set though.

 

[HyL!]

Let's start learning more about Luigi's moves.

I have a question to anyone that can answer, is any part of luigi's upsmash invulnerable?

Idk but it sure as hell interrupts nado well :D. 10thanks for teaching me that Biglou

I also have a question, why does everybody buffer an AD after like every aerial? I don't really see the use except to evade an oncoming attack, alot of the times I do it I just get punished or something.

 

[BigLøu]

lol no prob, that's actually the main reason I want to discuss up smash.

It consistently beats nado as long as you hit it, not to mention that I promise I've hit throw one of snakes grenades and taken no damage.

Ionno, I'm just brainstorming, but I have begun to spam a lot of up smash in my matches. It pushes both characters away and is safe on shield vs some characters.

lol I like to use it to catch people who roll away, I run up and charge a sliding up smash and they get hit with the back part of it.

QUESTION: Why dnt more Luigis use fireball to rush opponents? That's what my entire Luigi metagame revolves around o_o

 

[BigLøu]

Well most characters with an amazing in close game can just swat Luigi's fireballs away like its nothing.

It only works vs characters with a poor Out of shield game, which even then they can choose to roll backwards. It's deadly for Luigi to rush in in most match up's which is why you see most Luigi's attempt to space.
I've always thought to use fireballs in 2 ways. The first being to add hit stun to a character in the air, allowing them to "freeze" for a second then you can do an aerial to them.

The other way(vs match ups better played on the ground) I throw out a fireball and attempt to react to what they do. Or if I notice a pattern I punish accordingly.

Throwing out fireballs is good grounded, but you have to be careful rushing in as a follow-up.

 

[$Lil' Gerald Is In Dat Style$]

Jbandrew, how da heck im gonna rush my opponent w/ fireball despite that Luigi is a little slower, I usually do that w/ Mario.

EDIT: Nvm, I read BigLou's post. He solved the problem for me.

 

[BigLøu]

You can catch certain characters out of the stun, but if you guess wrong it's deadly.

Then again if you guess right, it leads to a great follow-up.

Jband drop that ****er mk, pick someone more manly like snake lol

lmaoo I tried snake. But I'm just not a camper. I CANT CAMP FOR SHHHHHHHHT!!

Anyway I guess you're right... I just can't seem to sit still with Luigi cuz I'm so aggressive so now my metagame revolves around fireball pressure and aerial zoning.. it's a gamble but it works for me *shrugs*

but yea... why are we not talking on AIM right now? <_<...

Get on AIM I'll IM you

 

[hippiedude92]

YO LOUNIS GO ON FACEBOOK AND CHECK DAT LUIGI SWAG, MORE COMING TMR DAWGGG
(that was the one l was talking either that or mushroom hat thru texting haha)
or u can just look at the last pg with pics lol that works too

i think upsmash does have inv frames, i remember someone saying there was when they did check the frame data, l believe it was luxor? namesearchftw??

and fireballs da bess. gets out of juggle traps and such.

sucks it get ps'd easily. anyone with a good dash shield ***** our fireballs aka mk

OMG this. Your set vs will would have gone a lot better if you didn't get gayed at like 40% or whatever. One of those stocks was homo =/

Also I dunno about the Usmash thing, I swear I've seen invincibility out of the back part of it too, but I can't be sure of anything I guess...

What do you guys think about F Throw? Are there any combos you can do out of it at low percents? I don't have a wii so I can't test anything out but I remember people talking about maybe Fthrow to nado at low percents and stuff.

 

[makoforce]

they were italian plumbers in what looked like new york!!! NEW YORK!!!!

yes, the first 6 frames i heard from someone on these boards...

yup, fthrow to fair fair (which has no lag if done correctly btw) or on chars like snake, d3, fthrow run up fthrow again, or read spotdodge to fthrow

Luigi has an Ftilt lock...I'll send a replay to be recorded...

 

[Chaosgriffin]

I have a question to anyone that can answer, is any part of luigi's upsmash invulnerable?

Yes, there are invinci frames, but they are only on his head hurt box at the very beginning of the attack, so since he sticks he head out behind him it is best to do reverse up-smash, which i have seen done quite a bit.

I also have a question, why does everybody buffer an AD after like every aerial? I don't really see the use except to evade an oncoming attack, a lot of the times I do it I just get punished or something.

Well its a change up, instead of doing two aerials in a short hop, you can do an aerial, fastfall buffer AD and be on the ground. Now with these two options you have, your opponent has to guess as to which one you are going to do, or react really really fast.

What do you guys think about F Throw? Are there any combos you can do out of it at low percents? I don't have a wii so I can't test anything out but I remember people talking about maybe Fthrow to nado at low percents and stuff.

Yeah, fthrow to to fair/cyclone on non fast fallers.


Also, does anyone else use cylcone to tech chase?
