However, Luigi has retained his noticeable weaknesses from previous installments. Luigi's mobility is still slow and awkward in spite of its improvements: his faster dashing speed is slightly below-average at best, while his low [[traction]] and slow [[air speed]] still largely hinder his [[out of shield]] options, punishment ability, and the versatility of his recovery. Despite having Fireball, the majority of Luigi's range is still short, which prevents him from racking up damage from a safe distance, especially against characters that have projectiles and/or disjointed [[hitbox]]es.

Overall, Luigi tends to run hot-and-cold like in previous installments. He initially had a large playerbase and excellent results, the latter of which was demonstrated by {{Sm|J.Miller}} winning [[B.E.A.S.T 5]] with him. Although update 1.1.1 nerfed Luigi's combo game to the point that his playerbase has decreased, he has nevertheless continued to achieve excellent results at local and regional tournaments, and respectable results at national tournaments. This has been most evident with {{Sm|Elegant}}, whose consistent success--his highest point being barely finishing runner-up to {{Sm|MKLeo}} in [[GTX 2017]]--has caused Luigi's current tier placement to become somewhat debatable.
