The Skill parameter has been removed from Smasher infoboxes, and in its place are the new "Best historical ranking" and "Best tournament result" parameters. SmashWiki needs help adding these new parameters to Smasher infoboxes, refer to the guidelines here for what should be included in these new parameters. |
When adding results to Smasher pages, include each tournament's entrant number in addition to the player's placement, and use the {{Trn}} template with the matching game specified. Please also fix old results on Smasher pages that do not abide to this standard. Refer to our Smasher article guidelines to see how results tables should be formatted. |

Luigi (SSBU)/Down taunt
Overview[edit]
Luigi bashfully kicks the ground, powerfully meteor smashing anyone hit by it. Being the strongest meteor smash at low % thanks to its high set knockback, it has its uses in competitive play. It is most effective after a ledge regrab, making it relatively useful after a ledge trump. Its high set knockback combined with SSBU's grounded meteor smash mechanics make it an effective combo starter at any percent.
However, the move possesses gaping flaws. It is Luigi's slowest move, coming out on frame 45. It also has a duration of only a single frame and a small hitbox placed at an extremely low angle. These traits make it awkward to execute the attack in practice and renders it highly predictable. The move's low range is also easily beat by disjointed recovery moves like Dolphin Slash.
Overall, down taunt is a fringe option that is rarely seen in practice due to sluggish speed and difficulty in landing the attack.

Trivia[edit]
- This move has a rehit rate of 8. However, due to its extremely short duration, it never comes into play.
