In ''Ultimate'', Luigi Cyclone has received a mixture of buffs and nerfs; the linking hits connect more reliably, the move deals more damage, it has gained a windbox that drags opponents into the move, it has more range, and now grants Luigi [[invincibility]] during its initial frames (frame 4–8 on the ground and frame 1–7 in the air), with the lattermost of these allowing the move to serve as a notoriously effective combo breaker. However, the move travels a much shorter distance even when button-mashed, completely removing its utility as a recovery option outside of a stalling tool, Luigi's horizontal travel distance with the move is much lower (especially on the ground), and the windbox and reduced knockback on the linking hits result in the move losing its ability to gimp recoveries from ''SSB4''. In update 2.0.0, the final hit received increased knockback, improving the move's KO potential. The move additionally now boasts a KO confirm out of down throw. | In ''Ultimate'', Luigi Cyclone has received a mixture of buffs and nerfs; the linking hits connect more reliably, the move deals more damage, it has gained a windbox that drags opponents into the move, it has more range, and now grants Luigi [[invincibility]] during its initial frames (frame 4–8 on the ground and frame 1–7 in the air), with the lattermost of these allowing the move to serve as a notoriously effective combo breaker in the same manner as ''Smash 64''.

A technique was discovered involving Luigi Cyclone, where if Luigi were to use the move at the edge of a platform and at the final frame of invincibility moved away from the platform, the invincibility would last for the entire duration of the move. This technique was called the "Super Cyclone", and could be used to avoid punishments for using the move and to edgeguard opponents. It was removed in update 3.1.0. | A technique was discovered involving Luigi Cyclone, where if Luigi were to use the move at the edge of a platform and at the final frame of invincibility moved away from the platform, the invincibility would last for the entire duration of the move.
