Luigi does not need a club. He WILL be in, there are no intelligent arguments against it besides the Mario-related clone thing. But Luigi could be further "Luigified" easily. The clubs that were made are characters that have chances but have a possibility of NOT making it. I should know, I created the S.S.S. for Sonic. I know he made it, but the S.S.S. was started about a month before Sonic was confirmed. And there was that chance that Sega would screw it up back then.

Well, if we're goign ahead with this. I might as well join too. Still, clubs for basically shoe-in veterans are sort of pointless. But I'll go ahead and join if that's what we're doing. If not, then ignore this.

.... I say Luigi should have a club. He doesn't have too many supporters anyways...
it should be called "The Green Team".
Ha. Cliche.
I can photoshop, so I'll make a banner on whatever name picked.
I say no.

Luigi has tons of supporters. That doesn't need to be proved to anybody.

As I said before I'm sick of these clubs. Of course not all of them are bad, but the majority of them are going around picking fights with other character support topics. It's got really old really fast. We really don't need that happening here.

This a discussion about Luigi. Luigi's too cool to have a club. He doesn't need a group of arrogant people who lash out when somebody supports another character.

In melee, I would rather play as luigi than Mario anyday. If/When luigi gets in, they will change his b-down for sure, since mario's got changed, it wouldn't make sense for him to have it as a b move while mario has it as an a move. It will most likely be the vacuum. I kind of hope Sakurai can implement some power-ups from mario galaxy. That would be pretty cool, since they didnt add it to mario, they can add it to luigi because he uses them too (ice ftw :])

I laugh at the stupidity of club bashing: why not just have a club because a character is freakin'
awesome and not bashing other clubs? Revolutionary! If anyone cares, I'll be here for the club thing.
Anywho, Luigi is going to be in, period. End of story. We have no need to discuss if he will be in or not.
Let's talk physics: Now that wavedash is out, should Luigi be as slippery? I say absolutely because it could become an alternative to wavedashing very quickly if he was slippery. I also liked his floatyness in Melee but I hope he isn't more floaty because that would get insane.
B moves should probably also be more recovery oriented: Luigi isn't a power house character and I want some of his moves to be solid recovery moves. I want his up b to have angle and his side b to not have so much ridiculous lag.
Agreements? Disagreements?

You think making a club out of this would bring more discussion?

Yeah... spam. Nothing more.

Clubs are just a stupid little fad. The Sonic one wasn't bad, but then we had to have one for Ashley and Geno (a character I support, but I've gotten very annoyed by the club.), and even more. There's nothing really cool about it.

If there's nothing you can contribute to the topic than you don't have to post. Seriously. This topic doesn't have to be at the top of the topics list 24/7.

As for my discussion on Luigi. We need Mr. L! Anybody else agree? I'd love for him to be an alternate costume. Having Dark Link, I think it might be a possibility. ^_^

having mario's down special as fudd makes me think that luigi's will be his vacuum. that is if they make his moveset from meele as a base for the moves

also i think his netural special should be his green lightning not fire

Did you even read my freakin' post? I said I would like there to be a club based on the fact that Luigi is awesome, not that we really have anything to prove or anything to disprove. If you don't like it that's fine and you are free to feel that way.
You probably didn't read the rest of my post dealing with Luigi's physics and b moves did you special boy? You probably should because I was trying to create some discussion for Luigi's physics and his possible game in Brawl. READ BEFORE YOU POST SMART ONE.
Oh, I do agree with Mr. L. Only good thing in your post. The rest was ignorant opinionated jabber.

Actually I did read your post. -_- Way too insult me for no reason.

This part:

Wasn't aimed at you. I'm just saying we don't need a club to bring activity to this topic. It's not ignorance saying that clubs bring about spam. It's the truth. I've seen it happen to all of the club topics. But then again spam happens everywhere on this forum. -_-

I'm indeed very sorry about that it has been a long day (no excuse, but still). Everyone on the brawl boards is so aggressive... so I assumed the worst. My apologizes.
Anyways... enough of that. I did look at the Ashley board and it is full of spamness. I will agree there. Quoted for truth.
EVERYONE TURN YOUR HEADS THIS WAY...
Back to Luigi's physics: (from previous post)
Let's talk physics: Now that wavedash is out, should Luigi be as slippery? I say absolutely because it could become an alternative to wavedashing very quickly if he was slippery. I also liked his floatyness in Melee but I hope he isn't more floaty because that would get insane.

Well, the whole low traction element of Luigi has been a part of his character for quite awhile. I'm pretty sure dash cancelling was in the demo and Luigi will probably still have a good one. I agree about having a better recovery as well since his acrobatics is pretty much the main focus of his character as well.

luigi really isnt a clone.....he looks similar, but movesets differ sometimes....examples:
side b mario :cape
side b luigi: luigi missle
up b: similar both, but luigi stronger
down b: similar, but different mehtods of keeping opponents in
their smash attacks differ sometimes....but really..if sakurai changes him a lil to be no clone whatsoever i would be pleased


in further notice luigi is deffinatly in brawl cause of these reasons 1. hes marios brother 2. hes been in all smashes

The second reason is nothing but speculation. It really doesn't look like Ness is returning, but look! He was in the original 12! :o

Anyways I wouldn't worry about Luigi not returning, the game wouldn't make any sense without him. Having all of those Mario characters and not Luigi? That wouldn't be a smart move by Sakurai.

I hope Luigi actually gets his voice. Melee & 64 had him only have higher-pitched Mario sounds. Even in Melee's sound test the "WHOA!" sounds the same

Wario is representing his series Wario Ware... Waluigi is no where to be found in those games...

I don't think he'll be announced at the Dojo, since he'll probably(again!) be an unlockable. I really wish they'd make Luigi a little differen't, though.

New look, attitude, and voice.
Actually faster running than Mario
Not losing so dang much speed when run-jumping.
New special moves:
Up B > Like Yoshi's flutter jump. When performed from ground and it hits from the first frame it'll do massive damage.
Neutral B > Vacuum Random element fire
Side B > Green Missile, now holdable
Down B > Vacuum sucking
Dr. Mario's like thunderhand as Forward Smash
A stronger version of Mario's uptilt as up smash. Not much startup lag, but some afterlag though.
Luigi handstanding and kicking both ways with his feet as down smash.

Not a bad moveset, but I still think that neutral B should be a Thunderhand move. I really like the Up B move, it fits Luigi a lot better than the one he's had for the first two games.

BTW, I strongly doubt that unlockable characters won't be shown on the Dojo. It would be odd to have both third party characters announced so far from the start (Sakurai said they would be unlockable) along with three Kirby characters from the start.

He could be announced any day now!

still having problems but this is the best i could do

i think we should put fan art on the front page
Those fanart pics are anit Luigi! He isn't his true green self (moreover, he is being awkward in most of those pics anyways...)
Why not keep some of Luigi's attributes similar to Mario's? They may be different, but they are brothers and should have some attributes similar (like the N-air).
I don't see why not. I would rather Luigi keep his Up-B that is more like the one in the N64.
I had a random brainstorm on the second jump though: Suppose after the end of his jumps it was a flutter just like in SMB2 (a fairly short one). That way he might keep his recovery moves that suck right now.
Disagreements? I expect a few...

I think he's going to get his vacuum in brawl. It'll be assigned to down-b and his cyclone will be down-a, similar to mario's change.

sounds good, but the ^b needs more work....something unique...something that would make luigi PERFECT

I believe the Vaccum would suck a person toward Luigi to be set up for combos. Instead of pushing like Mario's Fludd.
Here is a problem I imagined when I'm sucking someone closer to me as Luigi: Are they immobile or not? If they are for any extended period of time it's broken and if they're not they can just attack Luigi and the attack would be useless.

It could be liek that. I mean, it'd have to have somesort of down side to using it. Mario's just merelypushes, it does not have much knockback. Or so I've heard.

Well maybe there'd be a few seconds where Luigi would have to put away the vacuum and the opponent would be able to attack if you aren't quick enough.

They could have it's hold on people only be for a while as I see it sucking them close and into the vaccum stopping it up, Luigi could get a few moves in, then the hold would be over and the person would be able to break free.

Not really all that broken.

Does anyone have a Luigi support icon?

Luigi shouldn't return, Sakurai knows better than to put a character that will be overshadowed by Mario yet again.

Eh... I can't take that post seriously.

Anyways, it doesn't matter whether haters exist or not. There's a lot of haters of Sonic, but he's playable. Wow.

I've found more lately that on most of the message boards I frequent people like Luigi over Mario.
