Like his fellow veterans, Luigi now has a [[Final Smash]]; in his case, it is [[Negative Zone]], which emits a {{s|mariowiki|Big Bubble}}-esque field that inflicts a myriad of [[effect]]s at random intervals. In the transition from ''Melee'' to ''Brawl'', Luigi has received a mix of buffs and nerfs, with the number of buffs being larger overall. In paticular, many of his attacks have become stronger or faster, while his recovery has significantly improved. However, the removal of wavedashing drastically harmed Luigi; when coupled with the stronger defensive play of ''Brawl'', this makes his poor traction much more of a liability, as his inability to punish out of shield with wavedashing is a more significant problem in ''Brawl''. The introduction of hitstun canceling is also detrimental, as it significantly limits Luigi's combo game. Due to his abundance of buffs being outweighed by the considerable impact of his nerfs, Luigi is ranked 28th out of 38 on the tier list. This places him at the top of the E tier, and posits him as one of the three lowest ranked mid tier characters.

Luigi has been [[buff]]ed in the transition from ''Brawl'' to ''SSB4''. In addition to retaining his overall fast frame data and varied recovery, Luigi's moveset now boasts an impressive amount of utility, particularly in regard to combo potential. This is best demonstrated by Luigi's grab game, which is among the most effective in the game thanks to his quick grabs, his back throw being a viable KOing option, and his down throw's outstanding combo potential.

However, Luigi retains his overall slow mobility, especially while airborne, as well as his extremely low [[traction]]. Update [[1.1.1]] also altered the knockback of his down throw, which removed its guaranteed KO set-ups. Despite his flaws, Luigi overall remains a force to be reckoned with, and he has achieved fairly strong tournament representation and results throughout ''SSB4''{{'}}s lifespan. As a result, he is ranked 18th out of 54 on the tier list; in addition to placing him in the B tier, this posits him as a high tier character.
