'''Luigi''' ({{ja|ルイージ|Ruīji}}, ''Luigi'') is an [[unlockable character]] in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]'', who also appeared as an unlockable character in the previous two games, ''[[Super Smash Bros.]]'' and ''[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]''. He was announced on the [[Smash Bros. DOJO!!]] website on February 18th, 2008. Unlike his voice in the previous two games, which was just a higher-pitched version of [[Mario]]'s, Luigi now has a unique voice recorded separately from Mario's by Charles Martinet.
'''Luigi''' ({{ja|ルイージ|Ruīji}}, ''Luigi'') is an [[unlockable character]] in ''[[Super Smash Bros.

DOJO!!]] website on February 18th, 2008. Unlike his voice in the previous two games, which was just a higher-pitched version of [[Mario]]'s, Charles Martinet provides entirely new, lower-pitched voice than Mario, consistent with Charles Martinet's most other portrayals.


Luigi is currently ranked 28th on the current ''Brawl'' [[tier list]], on the top of the lower-mid tier, placing him three places above his older brother Mario. This is a moderate drop from his Melee tier, where he was 13th out of 26. He is best known for his fast, yet powerful attacks, possessing several potential finishers, some of which can reliably [[KO]] under 100%, including, but not limited to, his [[forward smash]] and [[Fire Jump Punch]]. His attacks also flow well together, making for a lot of effective set-up moves and [[combo]]s. However, Luigi himself is slow moving and has poor mobility, adding to the fact that he is [[floaty]], a slow [[dash]]er, and slow [[air speed|in the air]] as well, which makes [[approach]]ing opponents difficult. These problems are further worsened by the general [[reach]] of his attacks being among the worst in ''Brawl'', his signature lack of traction which causes him to be pushed back considerably while [[shield]]ing and limiting [[out of shield]] [[punishing]] options, and his only [[projectile]] being too slow and short-ranged to effectively [[camp]] most characters. He is also crippled by the removal of [[wavedashing]] more than most other veterans, as his low traction greatly exacerbates his approach and makes his general maneuverability difficult to handle, giving him more negative points than positive. This results in him having mostly poor [[matchup]]s, especially against characters with [[disjointed hitbox]]es and strong camping abilities, like {{SSBB|Meta Knight}}. This, combined with his general lack of representation in [[tournament]]s, results in him having below average tournament results.

*{{change|Luigi has been graphically updated, with significantly higher quality textures on his overalls and a more triangular, rather than a more rounder head shape, to better match his recent appearances in the [[Mario (universe)|''Mario'' games]]. His overalls, shirt, and hat are also a lighter shade of blue and green, respectively.}}

*{{change|As a result of Luigi received individual voice clips from Mario's, Luigi's voice is now lower-pitched than Mario's, consistent with his appearance in ''Mario'' games starting from the late-[[Nintendo 64]] era.}}
*{{change|Luigi's white costumes has been altered. His gloves are now white instead of golden in previous games, while his skin is now fair instead of tanned. These changes make Luigi resemble {{s|mariowiki|Fire Luigi}}. Luigi also gains two new [[alternate costume]]s: an orange costume, and a purple costumes, the latter being based on [[Waluigi]].}}
