[[ | The second incarnation of [[Luigi Cyclone]], Luigi twirls around like a spinning top with both good horizontal control in the air and on the ground. Despite looking similar to the Marios' down-specials, this move differs in quite a lot of ways; one of the most noticeable being that of the move having two medium-strength hits instead of several weak hits like Fox's down-aerial. The move typically sees three uses in competitive play: a recovery tool, a combo tool, or a way to get back to stage from being juggled. | ||
Similar to the Marios' down-specials, mashing B whilst performing this move in the air will cause Luigi to gain height. This only works, however, if the move is ''charged''. This requires Luigi to perform the move and have it end on the ground. Luigi will also sometimes start with the move charged anyways; whether it is or not depends on his opponent and the current stage. To gain the maximum height, the player will have to mash B every-other frame. | |||
