*{{SSB4|Lucario}}: with enough [[Aura]], it possesses the strongest back aerial in the game. Neutral aerial can also gimp recoveries due to its deceptive lingering hitbox. Aura Sphere is very powerful and has a massive hitbox with Aura. | *{{SSB4|Lucario}}: with enough [[Aura]], it possesses the strongest back aerial in the game.

*{{SSB4|Luigi}}: can use his [[Luigi Cyclone]] to gimp an opponent, by fastfalling and mashing the special attack button to rise afterwards, hitting the opponent with only the looping hits. Since the move's looping hitboxes have high base knockback and extreme knockback scaling as well as sending at the autolink angle, opponents are meteor smashed with very high hitstun, which proves very effective against slow, low recovering opponents, recovery moves without a hitbox, or trade with characters with short-lenghted recovery moves. Down aerial is a very quick and effective meteor smash as well. Forward and back aerials are fast, ranged, and effective gimping options. Down smash has little startup and can stage spike opponents near ledges. | *{{SSB4|Luigi}}: can use his [[Luigi Cyclone]] to gimp an opponent, by fastfalling and mashing the special attack button to rise afterwards, hitting the opponent with only the looping hits.

*{{SSB4|Mario}}: F.L.U.D.D., Fireball, and Cape are very useful tools against recovering opponents, the latter being very quick and able to reverse most up special moves. Forward aerial is a powerful spike with a large hitbox. Down smash is a fast and powerful semi-spike. Neutral and back aerials are both very fast with good hitboxes and decent power. | *{{SSB4|Mario}}: F.L.U.D.D., Fireball, and Cape are very useful tools against recovering opponents, the latter being very quick and able to reverse most up special moves.

*{{SSB4|Marth}}/{{SSB4|Lucina}}: forward and back aerials are useful offstage due to their speed, range, and power. Dolphin Slash is also useful against opponents near the ledge, since it can stage spike very easily. Marth's tipped forward smash is also capable of hitting opponents on the ledge if spaced correctly, almost guaranteeing a KO if it does. Sweetspotted down aerial is a powerful spike. | *{{SSB4|Marth}}/{{SSB4|Lucina}}: forward and back aerials are useful offstage due to their speed, range, and power.
