Reserved Luigi style
Working on a new Luigi style that consists of reacting accordingly to your opponents moves, consistently maintaining yourself at a Mid-“Boxing” range, and using moves to bait an attack while leaving Luigi as least open as possible. Airdodges and spotdodges would be a huge part of this style since it’s a mobile defensive style. Spamming fireballs while moving at a pace where I position myself away from harm would be smart. This style would be most effective at mid-range to bait a close range situation where the opponent misses their attack due to the constant dodging… a.k.a baited aerials that Luigi threw out and such. Spotdodge to Jab, Jab to Grab, all these safe options; SHFFAD to Spotdodge to immediate Jab. String of moves that if thrown out in a quick concession can be very hard to punish and can be used as baiting. Landing in front of a characters “Boxing zone” would be important since Luigi’s boxing game is very good, and can lead to quick kills such as Jab to Up B. Mixing in nado’s to retreat and to throw the opponent off, this can become a very annoying and hard style to beat. As of now, the optimal way to play Luigi would be like this since it takes advantage of his 2 frame Jab and playing defensively is bad for OOS options because of traction, and playing offensively in Brawl is a bad idea. IT IS VERY IMPORTANT TO MASTER JAB CANCELING AND TAKE ADVANTAGE OF EVERY OPPURTINITY WITH THIS STYLE!! Though a reserved style you remain at a range where you can punish your opponent for their mistakes, so you are an opportunist; ready to punish your opponent for misreading something and mistakes.
