The key to fighting the Master Hand as Luigi in SSB is making effective use of your shield as well as making effective use of ''not'' using your shield. The Master Hand's larger more elaborate attacks that send him off like a rocket can be shielded safely, however his hard jabs are too strong for the shield to withstand, at which point you want to draw back and maybe throw a fireball in his direction. Otherwise, it's all aerial attacks; spinning drill kicks into up+B can deal significant damage in a short period of time. With a little skill, you can defeat Master Hand by only using Up+B.

This page is about Luigi's SSB appearance. For information about his Melee appearance, see here.

Throughout Nintendo history, Luigi (ルイージ, Ruīji) has always lived in Mario's shadow. Super Smash Bros. is no exception, as Luigi is often considered as just an inferior version of Mario excluding his up B attack. Regardless, Luigi should still not be underestimated as his combos, although less varied and versatile than Mario's, can be followed by his devastating Flaming Uppercut attack.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Powerful finisher
  • Long recovery
  • Has a projectile
  • Has the highest initial jump
  • His Down B can be used in his recovery.

Cons

1-P mode

How to unlock Luigi

To unlock Luigi in Super Smash Bros., successfully complete complete all Bonus 1 Break the Targets levels with each of the eight original characters. You will then have to face Luigi with the character you used most recently in a 1-stock battle for the privilege of playing as him. If you do not beat Luigi, you can simply return to the Break the Targets menu and complete just one of the levels to have a chance at fighting him again.

Master Hand strategy

The key to fighting the Master Hand as Luigi in SSB is making effective use of your shield as well as making effective use of not using your shield. The Master Hand's larger more elaborate attacks that send him off like a rocket can be shielded safely, however his hard jabs are too strong for the shield to withstand, at which point you want to draw back and maybe throw a fireball in his direction. Otherwise, it's all aerial attacks; spinning drill kicks into up+B can deal significant damage in a short period of time. With a little skill, you can defeat Master Hand by only using Up+B.
