Luigi can be hella hype. Probably not fun to fight, but certainly fun to watch as a spectator.
-
Luigi is SLOWLY coming back, and its terrifying
-
I feel Luigi in general makes the games more tense than Sonic or his ilk. And if you don't care for the matchup the games usually go pretty fast, at least. I'm speaking from a spectator point of view. I'll be keeping an eye out for Rarukun and (unrelatedly) Toriguri this year for sure.
-
yeah the character combo route looks repetitive, but due to the unpopularity of luigi in high tier majors nowadays, and how lame the campy gameplay of ult's top tiers are, rarukun here looks like a low tier hero.
-
been keeping an eye on rarukun and toriguri since they have reach heights similar to acola and miya's ratings in online tournaments. Soooo happy to see them destroying the offline scene
-
Rarukun beating Doramigi still blows me away lol
-
Rarukun v Miya was a hell of a set. Didn't even feel fair. He was punishing g&w up-bs out of shield, somehow.
-
Luigi hits or gets an opening on you you either lose a stock or get huge damage his advantage state is insane and once he gets his hands on you good luck. campers or spacing characters like Zero Suit Samus/Samus Sephitoth Snake Cloud and others give him a hard time but it's still doable
-
That nair at 41 was so clutch 😂
-
Luigi might be a cheesy character but he's as fun a heck! Rarukun makes him look so easy at high level competition but it is very hard to pull of combos like he did all tournament.

The fact that caracters like steve gnw or sonic exist makes it that complain about luigi it's the last thing that i would do
-
Luigi might be the cheesiest character in the game, but OOH BOY, IS HE A BLAST TO SEE.
-
Much more interesting than than sonic
-
Luigi is hype but I’m a samus main

Luigi is one of the most hype characters in the game. His arms and legs are an inch long, so you shouldn't get touched. He's slow both on the ground and in the air, so it's all fine, ri- K-O! He has to work so hard to get in to do his thing, while so many characters just wave their huge scary hitboxes around. I like seeing how various Luigi players approach the conundrum that is Luigi's complete lack of mobility. There's hype even in footsies when the character doesn't even have footsies to begin with. The precooked grab-to-deaths can be boring if they happen, but that's not really a thing at high enough levels.

This is why i dont like tier list cause any character can be used if one person puts effort and train with them hard enough. Great video!

Doramigi played the matchup poorly
