Luigi Although basically the same as Mario, there are a few differences and quirks, as he's not really the heroic type. 使えないという人もいれば 最高だという人もいる。 両極端なキャラになっているのは、 性能だけでなく、 キャラ自体が持つ魅力のせいだろうか？ Luigi and Mario: a summary of differences 1: Body shape (= hurtbox sizes) 2: Jumping ability 3: Falling speed (horizontal, vertical, and dive) 4: Slipperiness 5: Colour of standard special move & flies directly sideways 6: For the up special move, the damage after the powerful first frame is 1 7: Down special move is one hit 8: Taunt pose 9: Dash attack 10: Strong down attack 11: Voice (Luigi's is higher, some lines are different) 12: Colour 13: Eyes 14: Popularity Some things such as shield size are slightly different, but omitted. Choose whichever of Mario and Luigi you prefer. Taunt (L button) There is a hidden hitbox in this taunt (on the foot). Its knockback is low, and it's hard to use in a match, but if mastered... ▲I call this innovation. Jump (tap up or press C) Luigi's jumps, compared to Mario's, reach higher and fall slower. Although it's higher and slower, his horizontal air speed is low, so horizontal distance does not extend much. Despite this, Mario and Luigi still weigh the same, so their knockback resistance does not change. Running brake (release stick to neutral while running) If you brake while running, it can easily be seen how slippery Luigi is compared to Mario. Each character has a defined "friction", that influences their movement behaviour. Luigi has the lowest friction. Everywhere Punch (dash attack) Luigi's dash attack consists of throwing punches here and there. It isn't intended to be used too much, honestly. It may fix a bad habit of relying on dash attacks. Low Kick (strong down attack) A strong attack, Mario extends his foot while spinning, while Luigi extends his foot straight out. Fast to put out, but no power. A move that should not be used much. ▲These are a little bit different. Drill Kick (down air attack) Continuous aerial attack. If you hit a grounded opponent with this, then as you land use Luigi's strong Fire Jump Punch. Try not to land too early. Fireball (normal special move) Luigi's Fireball flies straight ahead. While it's easy to hit opponents with Mario's Fireball, Luigi's Fireball finds it easier to block enemy fire. Each has its own advantages and disadvantages. Power is the same as Mario's. Super Jump Punch (up special move) High-risk high-return, this move can become an important factor for Luigi. 彼はこの１発にすべてをかけているというウワサあり。 When it hits the moment it's used it becomes a powerful Fire Jump Punch. Its power approaches the Falcon Punch. It then becomes extremely weak, dealing 2 damage once, and only producing one coin. On the ground, overlapping characters push away, so it's more likely to hit in the air. Although you could target fallen enemies, note that fallen enemies take half damage. File:SSB64DOJO Fire Jump Punch.gif ▲This is the moment! Luigi Cyclone (down special move) Instead of the Mario Tornado's continuous hitting, this does a lot of damage. Again, this can be good or bad.
