abstract | - Luigi appears as the only unlockable character from the Mario universe in Super Smash Flash. He can be unlocked by completing Adventure mode on at least normal difficulty with Mario. He is one of four clone characters in the game, borrowing his moveset from his brother. He is tied for third on the tier list with his brother Mario. Luigi has excellent horizontal movement, high jumps, and good kill power. He has easily the best projectile in the game, the Fireball, due to its very fast speed and firing rate. The Luigi Cyclone is a good turtling move, as it comes out fast, surrounds Luigi on both sides, has a long active period, and has instant-killing properties. Like Mario, Luigi doesn't have any real weaknesses, other than his lack of a momentum cancelling attack. This lack of downsides makes his strengths appear event more pronounced, as he has strong match ups across the board, resulting in his high placement.
