Luigi bashfully kicks the ground. The kick is a powerful meteor smash.
Luigi bashfully kicks the ground, powerfully [[meteor smash]]ing anyone hit by it. Being the strongest meteor smash at low % thanks to its high set knockback, it has its uses in competitive play. It is most effective after a ledge regrab, making it relatively useful after a [[ledge trump]]. Its high set knockback combined with SSBU's grounded meteor smash mechanics make it an effective combo starter at any percent.
 
However, the move is not without its flaws. It is Luigi's slowest move, coming out on frame 45. It also has a duration of only a single frame and a small hitbox placed low. These traits make it awkward to hit and highly predictable. The move's low range is also easily beat by disjointed recovery moves like [[Dolphin Slash]].
 
Overall, down taunt is a niche option that is rarely seen in competitive play due to its flaws.
