Luigi (SSB4)

Line 319:

However, Luigi underwent a noticeable drop in perception after update [[1.1.1]], due to the update bringing about changes to shield mechanics that made it harder for him to punish [[out of shield]], and nerfing his down throw to the point of heavily altering his powerful guaranteed follow-ups and removing his down throw's guaranteed KO set-ups. However, Luigi's down throw still managed to maintain highly damaging combos at low percentages and, when coupled with his impressive performances up to update 1.1.1, he was ranked 16th on the first ''4BR'' [[tier list]], his best ranking in the series at the time.

Despite this, many players who mained Luigi dropped him for other characters due to the intensity of the nerfs from update 1.1.1, which was further compounded by the release of the DLC characters {{SSB4|Corrin}} and {{SSB4|Bayonetta}}, two matchups considered unfavorable for him. By the time of the second tier list, Luigi's ranking saw a considerable downturn, ranking 29th, with this drop being the second largest between the first and second tier lists, resulting in him going from being the third highest ranked mid-tier character to the middle of the mid-tier, and being roughly tied with his placement in ''Melee''. However, Luigi's results are still strong in some regions, causing him to slightly rise to 26th on the third and current tier list. While Luigi's current placement is roughly similar to where he was according to popular opinion during the very early months of ''SSB4''{{'}}s lifespan, it is still his best placement in the series to date.
