Luigi is a playable veteran starter character in Super Smash Flash 2, as Mario's twin brother, they more or less have a similar moveset but with different attributes enough to tell them apart. His reveal took place during the end of the McLeodGaming stream at Super Smash Con 2015 as a "surprise". His sprites are custom made and based on his appearance in Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS and Wii U. His moveset directly comes from said game. His voice clips come from Super Smash Bros. Brawl.

| On-screen appearance | Unknown. | ||
| Taunts | Standard: Does various humorous poses very quickly in a set order: Faces the screen with one hand on his waist, makes the peace symbol, turns to the right slightly pointing his hands that direction. Then, he places his right hand just below his nose, after that, he turns away from the screen, crouching, as if he's sad, and finally, he faces the screen once more, with both hands on his face, giving a frightened look, similar to the box art of the game Luigi's Mansion. He also makes a sound during each pose: "Hoh! Hah! Hee! Hey! Hoo!" | Side: Stands straight up with hands on hips, falls forward stiff on the floor, then seems to balance himself back up again. He says something that resembles "Pow pow". | Down: Bashfully kicks the ground and sighs. Currently, it is the only taunt that does damage. |
| Victory theme | Remix of the flourish that plays whenever Luigi or Mario grab a flagpole to clear a level in the original Super Mario Bros.. | ||
| Victory pose | Does his side taunt twice, left and right. | ||

Trivia
- Luigi is the last of the original twelve characters who were playable in the original Super Smash Bros., to be confirmed for SSF2.
- Luigi, Sonic, Ness, Mr. Game & Watch, Falco and Marth are the only characters who had an unlockable status in the main Super Smash Bros. games to be starters in SSF2. While Jigglypuff and Captain Falcon are also starters; they had to be unlocked in the demo they debuted in.
- Interestingly enough, Luigi position as a starter character in SSF2 is similar to him becoming a starter in Smash Wii U/3DS.
- Luigi is one of (currently) five characters to have his availability status changed (he was an unlockable character in the original Super Smash Flash) the other four characters (so far) are Mr. Game & Watch, Lloyd, Naruto and Jigglypuff.
- Luigi, along with Yoshi and Link, are the only characters so far to wear their default costumes in team battle when they are on the green team.
- Luigi has a slight purple accent on his overalls. This is a reference to his design in Super Smash Bros..
