I will say this... of all the lower tier characters... since Sonic's spring pretty much saves him from almost everything that all other low tier characters suffer from... he eliminates a lot of MK's regular kill move options.

I agree with malcolm on the meta matchup. it becomes even when you realize and understand that sonics spring gets him out of situations and that he actually can punish meta's aerials on the lag and rearly gets hit by dsmash if hes baiting it. that conversation with malcolm helped me understand the matchup and I'm not so hateful of him liek i used to. still have plenty of hate left though... that's a problem. and i still have the ban metakight poster...

. Same with glide attack.Yay, more converts to the Sonic goes virtually even with MK side! BUAHAHAHA.
Lol if we start talking about that outside the boards. It'll be worse than our arguments about Sonic not being low tier.
Pardon the off-topic.
So I got caught by Reflex's signature:
lol'd for a bit, then I saw the following conversation.
theONEjanitor got it all wrong. He said that the Sonic player got blown up every time he tried to not spindash, and the first thing I saw was him spindashing into a grenade, lol. If he doesn't work his literal A-game, he's gonna be predictable and blown up ._.;
o_O;
seriously though...

snake/sonic is 55-45. maybe 60-40. my work here is done.

LOL we don't want to kill this thread (again?) now Tenki. As much as I want to rediscuss Weegee, is it worth it? Can you be sure that we might get something out of a dead corpse (the Weegee boards)?
Well, I still think some of the discussion in the past was kind of iffy.
Like, sure, it might feel more neutral if you can keep Luigi to a grounded game, but seriously, they push for aerial games forever.
Things I'd want to address this time is DI and what moves are dangerously punishable.

i dont like getting into jab wars with the green plumber, so i try to keep him at tilts range. I think bair is a good spacing tool, but im not sure, i think its longer than most of his aerials. Against any aerial happy opponent i try to throw more Upsmashes than usual, and try to put it in when i think thry are thinking attack rather than lolairdodge. run fakes help set it up. i dont have any thing else though so anythoughts woudl be nice.

against airial characters im starting to think that all of us should learn the airial style of sonic. which is basically to just bair and up smash as much as possible to the point where all ground moves stay completely fresh so that any of them will kill

I play a decent Luigi, so I MIGHT be able to add some st00f. This is definitly relevant to my interests.
Well, for 1, he can do a U-tilted F-smash out of shield and catch you in SH F-air's dead time.
I don't know if it was absolutely legit or because I wasn't expecting it and didn't try to jump away, but that was really demoralizing.

F-air trough him, land behind him.
Also, FF your F-air when you're almost done. Saves you like 3 frames. Think of it as Falcons knee, can do exactly the same.

I was behind him when he F-smashed me.
It's like trying to punish MK's F-air when he mis-spaces. There's a window of time where you can just get an aerial or something in, and MK can't do ANYTHING about it.
Wait until the move ends, then shield drop and pull a punishment attack.
I wouldn't be surprised if it were possible to jump and nail a sweetspot shoryuken on this lol.
Either way, F-air on shielding Luigi is a no-go at high %'s.

Yeah, I visited the Luigi boards not too long ago and they were all obsessing over U-tilted Fsmash because it's faster than the regular Fsmash apparently

Luigi is so frustrating
combos aren't supposed to exist in bawrl
but I get combo'd by luigi lol
I think it's the type of match where you just have to stay far away; bairs and ftilts, and watch out for his tornado which is used now and then just to mess with our spacing lol (but punishable by sonic's speed if he's not hitting us with it).
and luigi's so floaty, that you really can't follow up they way you might be used to with other characters
idk I need to learn the matchup better

yeah the upward tilted fsmash has IASA frames while the regular one doesnt. just try it in training mode and u will c how much faster it is.

Bair works wonders as a spacing tool. Luigi's traction is horrible, sooo unless he powershields your bair, he;'s gona slide too far back. I'm also pretty sure it outranges all of his aerials with proper aerials.
Also, that janitor guy failed hard.

Anyway Chis, keep up the good work.
I would go ahead and post my two cents, but I don't have the time as of now, and I'm pretty sure some other people feel very different about this than I do when I say it might be 55:45 Weegee's advantage at worst.
Plus, if we could actually get some professional Weegees in here this time around... maybe it won't be so bad.
If nobody does make a new post, I'll just efit this one when I have the time.

Hey. Weird question. Can Weegee guarantee a sweetspot UpB if he sheild our homing attack? His jumps ARE pretty high.....

I haven't figured out how to fight Luigi yet, but I'd guess it involves lots of spaced Bairs and Ftilts. Prolly Utilt as well if he tries to close in from the air. I always try to follow his recovery trying to gimp him or just be a nuisance, but it really doesn't work against Luigi; his recovery is dangerous and afaict pretty ungimpable. His hitboxes all seem to extend further than they appear, I think. I wonder if he could just hit us out of even our Bair or Ftilt (how far does our hurtbox extend on those?)

I would say powershield, perhaps, but I doubt from normal HA. Besides, don't HA.

Howdy Sonic Boards! Let's get this under way.
On the ground.
On the ground, there is not any advantage. They have similar moves. Luigi is slower and floaty, while Sonic is solid and fast. Luigi has more K.O moves here and there. Your homing attack in this matchup is not a good idea on the ground. The reason Luigi has the advantage is because:
1.) K.O opportunities
2.) Lighter combo's like a SHNair, and u-tilts, (juggling)
3.) Approaches with projectile, Sonic lacks a projectile, so a fireball setup works.
I'd say for Sonic advice on the ground: Be aggressive, because quick jab> grab> dthrow> aerial will go a long way for you. When approaching, make your move as quick as possible when Luigi is even slightly vulnerable. That's why you want to say close but not too close. Luigi can Nair his way out of any closeness problem. Again, I think don't go with homing attack in this match up because Luigi has his f-smash that will take you down quick if you miss or bounce off a powershield.
Luigi's u-smash should be used a lot in this match-up. Using an OOS u-smash after a powershielded f-smash or homing attack will get you killed. Take advantage of Luigi's sliding by anticipating when he starts to slide. If Luigi tries to u-tilt juggle you SHFair, you'll get him. It is harder to UpB Sonic because he is so much faster, Sonic would need to be too close and vulnerable. To avoid Luigi's constant SH approaches you need to spam u-tilts as a Sonic.
Ground 50-50
On the edge this game turns around. Sonic has a predictable recovery, but it is not in the same area ad other recoveries, it is higher up if you used UpB. Luigi would have to mix up his recoveries well, because if
Sonic were to sit and spam his f-tilt on the edge stopping green missiles and tornado recoveries, Sonic would win. Sonic can intercept Luigi for higher damaging, but Luigi can intercept Sonic for the K.O, Luigi has a bair SS and a dair spike, which are hard and situational, but if you are predictable a good Luigi will get you. Luigi's d-taunt works the same on everybody, if they don't think fast, and try to come for above, a well timed Luigi d-taunt will send you offstage, or in other cases bounce you off the ground spinning where you scream "UpB me!". A semi-common Luigi edge guard is to UpB right when you can touch them, but Sonic can attack after UpB and protect himself with fair. Luigi's recovery is hard to gimp, but not hard to see what comes next.
Edge: 55-45 Luigi. Reason: Combos
In the air. Luigi and Sonic are both aerial aces. Sonic has ridiculous priority with his fair, and that stops Luigi from aggressively applying aerial pressure. Luigi may have more combos to choose from in the air, but Sonic can rack up the damage just as fast. When I play Sonic I find myself falling back constantly and spamming bairs. I just played a second ago and noticed that I didn't use dair at all. Which isn't bad because it is too short range to work against Sonic. Luigi can assure a safe descent with fireballs and bairs that Sonic can't so in the air, you need to be close as well.
Aerial: 55-45 Luigi. Reason: Combos
Taunts:
Luigi's taunts can hurt you
Taunts: 100-0 Luigi: Reason, hurt
In the end, I think this match-up is very close. I think, they balance their weaknesses out with strengths.
Luigi has a slight upper hand. Luigi has a 61-39 Advantage overall.
Luigi can just rack up damage a little faster, and then KO for the win.
Sonic General Strat: Don't let Luigi mindgame you and change up the approaches. Anticipate where moves like UpB and tornado leave him vulnerable and protect yourself with tilts. In the air, bairs, and fair will help you win. Stick close to Luigi because you have no projectile game or aerial range. Homing attack is a no-no.
Luigi General Strat: Do what I told the Sonic's to avoid, but keep them on their toes.
If Luigi can combo Sonic into the air, that'll keep him honest and not try to pull off anything drastic like running in and spamming K.O moves.
I think that covers it
EDIT: I almost forgot the stages!
Luigi would pick a place that's simple aerial and has platforms. Sonic will get beat in BF and Lylat Cruise.
As Sonic I would pick Brinstar because it can go either way, and the blast zones are big and wide. I don't know if you guys like that course or not. Also you might want to do Delfino for the movement and maybe even pictochat. Pictochat gets in the way of some of Luigi's approaches.
Don't choose Corneria or Luigi will win.

there's alot of wrong/inapplicable there, and i'll WoT later.
two things for now:
Sonic's F-air "priority" is kind of not applicable in this matchup.
Noone really uses homing attack, lol. Wanna talk about punishing it? Sure, let's talk about punishing Luigi's D-taunt approach.

You're talking about Sonics bad recovery, Luigi edgeguarding with taunt, Sonic using homing attack, Sonics spamming ftilts as edgeguard and more weird stuff

Jab wars are sooooo fun XD. Luigi is where he shines in jab range. If your within his jab range, you need a quick GTFO OR JABUPB will happen. But anyways, once he jabs (comes out frame 2), he can do anything out of a jab. IIRC, luigi's Bair outranges him (that's from my perspective.) could possibly trade off. Either way, even if you try to space your attacks in the air, you'll eat a pivot grab son.
It was probably either before the summer or near start of the summer. Yeaaaa our boards stink alot when it comes to inactivity espically matchup threads ^.^ Most boards leave us last in matchups anyways lawlYeah, I visited the Luigi boards not too long ago and they were all obsessing over U-tilted Fsmash because it's faster than the regular Fsmash apparently
?_?
Ya well, sonic's speed isn't suppose to exist either. lol j/k. I need to learn the matchup too as well ( unbelieveably rare to find a good sonic >.>). Your pretty much gonna have to go ground game, force luigi to the air, juggle him like a beast. Luigi sucks bawls when hes getting jungled trapped.
Said before, if you try to space, eat a pivot grab. Luigi's traction has it's pros/cons. Like for instance he can increase range wise (i,e sliding dsmash covers mucho ground). Most luigi's will be powershielding (although powershielding is a natural habit but still always possible). Usually once luigi gets a powershield, he can pretty much do anything he wants since he lives off it such as OOS upb.
No clue. Probably if it's a powershield and with precise timing that is... although i still find sonic in every sense to be annoying as ****...
lol kig. your phail. just phail lol. I think you should let me and Atash do the matchups lmao. Don't try to input unless you have extensive experience espically against sonic boards (omfg 40k posts and you don't want the sonics to invade and raid our board, i've seen it happen :/)
i lol'd at the dtaunt. Anything is possible XD. Hell, if sonic somewhat missed the sweetspot w/ his upb, he'll eat a taunt spike LMFAO.
Lol. I honestly don't know a sonic WHAT SO EVER. I don't really feel like discussing luigi vs sonic since both chars are rare to fight against at a top level basis, and to the fact that sonic boards can just murder us with everything, also i don't know a single lingo thing that they talk about (i.e HA = homing atk). And i dont know sonic at all srsly lol.I'm not in the mood to write much, but srsly wtf

[1] Well, I've never had to worry about a pivot grab from Luigi. You do mean retreating pivot grabs, right? Don't put too much emphasis on pshielding though. That's more of a player thing, since (AFAIK) everything aside from multi-rapid-hits are punishable as long as they're powershielded. I mean, we can say that we neutralize your airgame by powershielding and punishing your aerials from there, but that'd be unfair.
[2] lol and it's not just any Luigi D-taunt. It's an approaching D-taunt.
As for Sonic lingo, back when we were more active with making matchup exports to get more input from other sides, we had ending notes that gave a walkthrough of all the lingo.
Now, we have that stuff on the Sonic rFAQ (really frequently asked questions) thread.
edit-------------
thanks <3
Honestly though, I think I can speak on the behalf of alot of people when I say that we could really care less about a matchup number. I'm more interested in learning how to play the matchup and what kind of things to watch out for instead of silly numbers.
Those numbers are for people who don't main our characters, so they know who to choose who/when to counterpick.
They just have to look at a counterpick chart and shallowly decide "oh, I should probably use this character against this one, since it's such a steep matchup" (ex, fox-pika, D3 vs DK, etc)
But since almost noone seconds Sonic or Luigi, we should probably discuss more on how the matchup is actually played.

lol matchup numbers are dumb anyways. I agree with chic, only on behalf if the luigi has the crappiest experience and Sonic has godly experience tho =D. And ohlawdy that's a ****load of prefixs and lingo words I have to remember LMAO. It's even more gayier since I can never tell the difference between his downb and his sideb (in terms of apperance and such).
If anything, I'd go wifi against any sonic main (hit me up on a PM since I notice alot faster) so I can get a feel for the matchup. (just saying wifi is bawls, lagjohns are legit and just there for getting a feel for the matchup. just saying). ;D

Down-B = Spin in place and repeadidly pressing the B button and holding down.
Side-B rolls you back a little and you can hold (and shield cancel) it.
When you are rolling, they both have the same appearances. And Side-B has a freaking hop.

I didn't want to say anything since I have minimal Weegee (*cough* more like none) experience, but I do know one thing.
Weegee's DA is trash, you always PS the last hit. Hell it's so garbage you can even SDI behind him and punish him via that way. I just wanted to make sure you all knew so that in case it gets used on you, you know how to counter it.
Everything else is/that is just pretty much Weegee specific, (and) apply what works to Sonic, there you go, you have the best Sonic/Weegee matchup discussion this year will probably ever see. It is rare to come across a good Sonic player, and even more rare to see any Weegee.
Weegee also gets juggled pretty bad, poor guy has MK's aerial top speed, and unless Weegee is PSing (there is a limit on how good a player can be before it becomes inhumanly perfect play where it just gets decided on who messes up, and that goes nowhere since even that is player dependent), he'll probably slide a good way so that things liek your Bairs are not punishable without said PSing. Just don't try anything else on him though or you eat an Up-B.

but how do we gimp luigis???hit them out of tornado?
But you have to be careful, the max Luigi recovery, I believe, is..
side-B until near,
tornado + B-spam to fly high
(optional side-B)
doublejump + tornado B-spam.
Luigi's first aerial tornado can fly really high with correct B-spam. The second one normally doesn't, but I hear if you double jump + nado it can sort of fly up.
