Editing Luigi (SSB4)/Down aerial

{{ArticleIcons|ssb4=y}}

[[File:LuigiDAir.gif|thumb|Visualization of Luigi's down aerial]]
==Overview==
Luigi performs a downward corkscrew kick. It is a [[meteor smash]] on aerial opponents, though its power is lacking. Unlike past games, the sweetspot is timing-based instead of position-based, making it comparatively much easier to use.

This move has many uses. The combination of wide [[autocancel]] windows and Luigi's floatiness make it very useful in air-to-ground combat, as it carries little risk if the opponent isn't right next to Luigi. Due to the late hit having the [[Sakurai angle]], it can occasionally [[trip]] opponents, further improving its utility in [[approach]]ing. Combined with all the aforementioned properties, it is a formidable [[edgeguarding]] tool. Even if it doesn't meteor smash, it can still be useful for [[gimp]]ing recoveries, since Luigi will almost always be able to make it back to the stage. Finally, it can be used as a follow-up after a down throw, with the clean hit also being a good combo starter. Overall, like every other aerial attack Luigi has, it is an all-around useful move.

==Update history==
Luigi's down aerial was buffed in patch [[1.1.1]], as it increased the hitbox size of its clean hit, making it easier to land the meteor smash.
