==Overview==
Luigi bashfully puts his hands behind his back before kicking his foot forward. This move is notable for being wholly unique, as it's the only [[taunt]] in the game that has a [[hitbox]]. This doesn't mean that it's useful as an attack, however. It takes 3/4's of a second before a single frame of an attack hitbox comes out, only for it to take nearly half a second to recover.
The move sees almost no use in competitive play. It is a horrible [[neutral game|neutral]] option, being slow and having a small hitbox, almost guaranteeing Luigi will be [[punishment|punished]]. It can be used at the [[edge]] of the stage to hit opponents attempting to [[edge#Edge sweet spot|sweetspot]]; this is almost always a bad idea, as well. If it misses, the opponent will likely be able to punish Luigi. If it hits, there's a decent chance they'll be able to [[meteor smash#Meteor cancelling|meteor cancel]]. Given this, the move's sole use in competitive play is as a humiliation tactic, getting a kill on an opponent who misses their meteor cancel.
