Luigi is just legendary. He isn't useless, he just fights through to be brave enough to fight back. His heroic deserves a lot of love. Never let you're fears consume you're whole life 💚.
I’ve played most Mario games where that’s the case and the only times where I think that’s actually true are in Super Mario 64 DS and maybe 3D World. All Luigi has is a higher jump and no traction
You grievously underanked Mario Galaxy Luigi. He can actually get past the levels really fast having that higher jump. Luigi in Mario Galaxy is actually pretty insane, he should have been in S too.
@@bees__kneecaps Pretty much. This video is for memes I guess, but he straight up overlooked pretty much everything that makes galaxy Luigi really cool.
I basically always play as him and prefer him. I just deal with the sliding, it’s rarely a problem. The jump height breaks most of his unique appearances where it matters for him to have it.
You need to basically 100% clear the game to get him. That alone makes him not worth it, because, by that point there's obviously nothing left to do. Galaxy 1's Luigi deserves that bad ranking.
luigi cannot be a lil bro in those games, the game is full of puzzles where both of the bros are needed. With and without eachother. Heck luigi had a whole adventure saving mario with the poisson mushroom in superstar saga. (Even tho that mario also had to save luigi from a pole where poppy was there). a whole ass "mini" boss with the piranha plant dude. and saving marios ass again in bowsers inside story with those bean looking sock thingies I think. Paper jam may looks like the weakest where he was shown, but he did save both mario and paper variant in the forest with king boo in it. I think that this franchise brings the most of it (dream team is a year of luigi game)
Friendly reminder Luigi is able to become immune to almost all damage in nearly every game, with BiS being a standout. (His HP is higher than Mario's, using the shell item won by playing hide and seek with a child toad he can literally tank the dark star's attacks effortlessly)
@@jeremymklinger I think you forgot how in super Mario Wii that once you lose on a level like 20 times the Luigi block will appear and the game auto-clears the level with Luigi.
There's a couple stars in Galaxy 2 that Luigi is a lot better for getting, such as the green star in Stone Cyclone Galaxy where you need a triple jump to reach it. His higher jump requires less precision for it. He can also flat shortcut some levels in Super Mario Bros 2. Take the second stage, where his crouch jump lets him skip the Phanto and key by jumping to the higher ledge.
Actually the programmers put it there for a joke and the wanted to know how people react. Also it's in Sunshine so it doesn't affect the gameplay. Just a sign :)
In SMB2 Luigi can bypass puzzles and challenges since he can just jump higher (and longer). His slower jumps also makes platforming easier. Game's easier with him compared to Mario, not harder. Saying he's hard mode isn't even a skill issue; it's plain wrong.
just wanted to comment that luigi has an altered design in some versions of mario world and mario bros 3 where he is skinnier than mario, PLUS, there are still all special levels ahead of you when luigi is saved in mario 3d land, meaning he should've been put a little higher on the list
*My ranking (prepare for all the "elite" rankings)* Mario Bros. - lil' bro (Green Mario) Mario 1 - Green Mario (damn close to "elite" in the SNES remake) The Lost Levels - Hard Mode (I'm amazed to see a term that sounds this complimentary be ranked closer to "barely does anything" than "worthless" than "elite", but you do you, I guess, me, I'd recommend if it traded places with "Green Mario", but at least I can see where you're coming from) Super Mario/Luigi Bros. 2 - Elite Hard Mode (again, depends on how it suits the players to see if they are fit for the challenge, I just think you need to "git gud" so you can finally understand and even really enjoy how to play as him) Super Mario/Luigi Bros. 3 - Elite Green Mario (objectively speaking, but hey, at least he can feel like a lot of fun to control in the SNES/GBA remake as his own character) Super Mario/Luigi World - Elite Green Mario Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island - barely does anything Luigi's Mansion (trilogy) - elite (IDC what anyone says, Luigi is one of the greatest characters in the franchise alongside his brother Mario, his sidekick Yoshi, his rival Bowser and countless others) Super Mario 64 DS/Super Luigi 64 - elite New Super Mario/Luigi Bros. - elite Super Paper Mario/Luigi - elite Super Mario (or in this case Luigi) Galaxy - elite NSMB sequels - Green Mario ("elite" in New Super Luigi U; the title speaks for itself) Super Mario/Luigi Galaxy 2 - elite Super Mario/Luigi 3D Land - elite Super Mario/Luigi 3D World - elite Super Mario/Luigi Run - elite Super Mario Odyssey - barely does anything (which by today's standards is disappointing) Super Mario/Luigi Bros Wonder - elite Mario Party - Luigi wins by doing absolutely nothing
His high and long jumps are good in Mario 2 tho. And for speed runs he’s useful in certain situations. Only Luigi and toad are used in any%. But yeah I guess he is hard to use.
He's my favorite in Superstar Saga and Dream Team for his unique set of Bros. Attacks, and also because he has his heroic moments in Superstar Saga and is literally the most important character in Dream Team
I love how in the super paper mario saga, he is the fucking definition of powerful, super paper mario for the wii? You can replace mario with luigi, and on origami king, holy shit you tell me we used the help of multiple ppl and boats to cross the sea, and when we get on our destiny, paper luigi is there just chillin, and he got so soon... FUCKING SWIMMING
the series is called paper mario. super paper mario *ONLY* refers to _Super Paper Mario,_ released in 2007 for the Nintendo Wii. this is also unfortunately the only game where Luigi’s presense seems to be more than a joke, but god does it pay off
Imagine thinking Luigi is hard mode in SMB2 USA. His high jump make many platforming areas a breeze. He can also access certain areas that other characters can't, making him valuable in finding secrets and shortcuts.
meanwhile all 3 luigi's mansion games have him in elite because hes the only playable character... apart from gooigi in luigi's mansion 3 but is still practically luigi
Luigi in my eyes has always been a “risk reward” type of character. His slippery shoes might screw you up but if you get used to it, then you can do a lot more than you can with Mario. Therefore, I don’t feel like a tierlist on how good he is in each game is accurate. Still good video though!
As someone who just recently 100%ed 3DLand, i gotta say... Luigi HARD carries that game! Make him eat a Stone Leaf and you might as well start calling it Super Luigi 3D Land
Ok so quick thing I wanted to mention, in NSMBWII there’s a feature where if you’re playing single player you can hit a green block to activate “luigi guide” which has a cpu clear the level for you as luigi, implying that luigi is more competent than mario in that game
Fun fact: in 3d land, luigi doesn’t actually play differently to mario at all, his slippery physics were removed. His jump is slightly higher, but only by a miniscule amount.
See now I wish you would count the rpgs, the Mario and LUIGI games have perfect Luigi power and personality. Like he's not a green Mario but the different powers he has for his brother is just as useful as Mario".
Super Mario Bros: The Lost Levels - You're really selling him short here. While he is harder to control, Luigi is actually better than Mario once you get used to him, and he's favored for speedrunning because there's a couple skips he can do that Mario can't. Super Mario Bros 2 - Once again, you're selling him short. Luigi's the go-to speedrun character because of his jump height. Again, this is because he can skip certain parts of levels. For example, his Super Jump lets him skip the entire cave section of 1-1.

So, are we not counting the Mario and Luigi games? I sort of get not the Luigi’s Mansion games since he has an entirely different type of gameplay than normal Mario games, but in some of the Mario and Luigi series you do have points where the brothers get split up and you play as just Mario or just Luigi.
In Super Paper Mario, Luigi's high jump KO's a certain late-game boss in about 10 seconds. The devs may not have intended it, but still one of his greatest moments.
within the lore (which seems to be loosely included in these) he is EXTREMELY powerful as well, but would probably go into a “making things worse” tier as that power was used for evil (tho not of his own free will)
While I understand the idea that in most games his trademark unique abilities can be give & take with the slipperyness being a main issue for a slight,y higher jump he is legit the best character in 64 DS The traction is almost none existent if there at all & he has a ton of abilities only in that game including the ability to slow his decent, run on water! & spin like when bouncing off Shy Guys after doing a Backflip all while having the biggest jump Ik this doesn't really matter much since you ranked his role in that game as high as you can but I thought it'd be worth mentioning
Shouldve had the mario and luigi rpgs Luigi is pretty much equal to mario in most except for dream team where hes a key component to the story and more important than mario since hes able to open the dream portals
"He's probably the least usable character in [Super Mario Bros. 2 (US)]." Uh, what? Am I the only one who thought he was the best and easiest to control, this getting through almost the entire game with just him? Edit: Bro, your entire hard mode tier has me baffled. We must just have different preferred play styles, because those are all ones I prefer to play as Luigi, because he feels so much better and easier to control than Mario.
Toad and Luigi have a steeper learning curve than Mario and Peach. But, if you want to beat that game, learning how to get good with one or both of them will serve you much better. Anyone who says differently, I assume they didn't spend much time playing it
Luigi is the GOAT, if he was "useless" he wouldn't be part of the iconic "Super Mario bros" i lean in Mario and Luigi series you acn see how much Mario has confidence that Luigi can still save the day along side him(especially in dream team)

The fact that Luigi can just casually leave a planets gravity in Galaxy games by just triple jump makes him all powerful!!! Can you include Mario and Luigi as well as RPG and Paper Mario?
Super Mario Odyssey is the biggest disappointment in terms of Luigi. Like why isn't he playable? Same thing for Bowser's Fury, like all you had to do is import him from 3D world and then edit a big cat version of him

Because LuigixDaisy didn't exist when 1 dropped
@@RobbyMac64 But Luigi X Daisy existed in NES Open Tournament Golf which initially released in 1987 2 years before Mario Land initially released in 1889.
@@bunnyhatzuicecream Nes open released in 1991. Two years after Daisy. 1987 was when Family Computer Golf: Japan Course released which Daisy was not in as she didn't exists yet.
Is luigi useless, or is he doing exactly what he always does? Wins by doing absolutely nothing. Make mario save the princess. True chad move imo.
Well luigi had his own sprite in super Mario all stars mario World which is cool and he had his abilities which is also cool
SM64DS: has specific jumps, water run, vanish cap, green rabbits. Also Mario is a dealer in Mario Fundamentals. SMB2: Luigi used in level(s) for official speed runs…
He's playable in all of nsmb2 if you do local multiplayer, so he should be ranked higher there imo
I didn’t even think of that, that’s valid, don’t know if it would raise it much, but that’s a fair point
@@jeremymklinger I mean, I don't know many people played the co op, but I think lil bro is probably fair
The fact that Luigi can just casually leave a planets gravity in Galaxy games by just triple jump makes him all powerful!!!
Can you include Mario and Luigi as well as RPG and Paper Mario?
*You Can Now Play As Luigi*
In Luigi’s defense in Yoshi’s island, Mario was also useless too since you were really controlling Yoshi
2:56 "Lasting impact"
i think u forgot in galaxy 1 that luigi gets a lot of stars for mario and also the different controls make replaying the game with luigi way more fun
He gets 3 stars before he's tuckered out
5:15 it's technically true
Super mario bros wii's luigi is elite. If you are stuck on a level he helps you showing you how to do + can make you skip the level
Super Mario Odyssey is the biggest disappointment in terms of Luigi. Like why isn't he playable? Same thing for Bowser's Fury, like all you had to do is import him from 3D world and then edit a big cat version of him
Exactly, just laziness by the devs I guess
Bro forgot about SMW ver. 2 on all stars where luigi was given a unique sprite.
next do toad or yoshi
