Overview

This article or section may require competitive expertise. You can discuss this issue on the talk page or edit this page to improve it.

An upward headbutt. Quite fast for a smash attack, and its sweetspot is strong enough to KO middleweights at 135%. However, its sourspot is much weaker because of its lower damage output, and thus very unreliable for KOing. Like Mario and Dr. Mario's up smashes, it renders his head intangible throughout its duration. His nose hurtbox, however, is still vulnerable. It can also function well as a "slide" smash out of a dash, thanks to Luigi's very low traction. The angle at which opponents are launched changes depending on where they were hit, as hitting from Luigi's front will cause them to be launched inversely.
