The thing that is making him mid tier is his trash air speed.Not only does Luigi have results that have been good lately, but I've noticed that even after nerfs, his combo game is still nice and I'm very impressed at how Elegant, ConCon, and others have been able to work with Luigi even after nerfs. I could see him making high tier in due time, honestly.
Yeah, his air speed is pretty heinous. But on the recovery portion, I've become less rigid on my disliking of Luigi's recovery. It does get good distance, but momentum is an issue. Speed and momentum is an issue for Luigi in general. Now, if this were Luigi with his wavedash, his speed wouldn't be as bad.The thing that is making him mid tier is his trash air speed.
His recovery isnt THAT bad, it goes really high and far, the main problem being his upb, it has no horizontal momentum.
Other than that, Luigi is essentially a better Mario. Better kill power, better combos, better damage, his mobility is rather terrible though...
