Editing Luigi Logic

{{Quote|Leave it to me!|Luigi|Mario & Luigi: Brothership}}
'''Luigi Logic''' is a special ability exclusive to [[Luigi]] in ''[[Mario & Luigi: Brothership]]''. It involves him thinking up beneficial solutions using his unique mind which allows him and [[Mario]] to solve overworld puzzles; it can also have him move on his own with the use of the {{button|switch|L}} button. This ability is also available during boss battles by interacting with background elements which can advantageously be used against a boss, which usually results in stunning the boss for a turn and causing all attacks to deal critical damage. Luigi Logic cannot be used if either Bro. is [[Downed|KO'd]] or inflicted with [[Glohm]].<ref>{{cite|url=nintendo.com/us/store/products/mario-and-luigi-brothership-switch/|title=Mario & Luigi™: Brothership for Nintendo Switch|publisher=Nintendo.com|accessdate=October 17, 2024}}</ref><ref>{{cite|author=Nintendo of America|date=October 10, 2024|url=youtu.be/zF96tpchink?si=l_vyJNmPBHZE0CRS|title= Mario & Luigi: Brothership – Overview Trailer – Nintendo Switch|publisher=YouTube|accessdate=October 17, 2024}}</ref> Despite its description stating that Luigi Logic always requires Mario's cooperation, some of them do not involve him at all. The mechanic is comparable to the [[Dreamy Luigi#Luiginary Works|Luiginary Works]] from ''[[Mario & Luigi: Dream Team]]''.

It is later revealed that the [[Great Conductor]] is the one who gave Luigi the Luigi Logic ability seeing the potential hidden in Luigi.

==Instances==
===Field===
{{stub|section=y|Full list}}
*[[Rumbla Island]] has a gate that Luigi can squeeze through after Mario opens some gaps in the door. Luigi uses this to get to the other side of the gate, where there is a button that can be pressed to open the gate.
*Luigi Logic can be used to have Luigi automatically perform solo actions such as uprooting Plug Radishes, breaking boxes with his hammer, and collecting [[Sprite Bulb]]s.
*Luigi Logic is used when learning new [[Bros. Move]]s.
*Luigi Logic can be used to reach handles that are too high to reach with a normal jump.
*On [[Allsand Island]], Luigi hangs from a tree branch to distract the [[Sharkbone]]s while Mario retrieves the [[Stickem Oil]].
*While finding a way to [[Wayaway Island]], Luigi comes up with the idea to disguise themselves on [[Offandon Island]].
*Luigi has a Luigi Logic flash when the Great Conductor reveals his role in granting the ability.
*On [[Jellyfish Island]], Luigi thinks of making jellyfish pizza for [[Adaphne]].
*When Mario and Luigi are seperated in [[Fortress Zokket]], Luigi thinks of using the [[Transmitter Block]]s to communicate with Mario.
*While being chased by a boulder in a cave on [[Skorcheen Island]], Luigi jumps to the path across a lava pit to pick up Bomb Buds and throw to Mario to clear away rocks on his side.

===Boss battles===
*During the battle against [[Gorumbla]] and the [[Glohm Gorumbla]] rematch, a sculpture to the north can be targeted with Luigi Logic. Luigi can grab the sculpture to fling the boulder at the boss, who sends it at Mario. Mario must then use his hammer to stop the boulder before Luigi sends it at Gorumbla with his own. If successful, Gorumbla will be stunned for a turn with his defense lowered.<ref name=Nin10doland>{{cite|author=Nint10doland|date=October 23, 2017|url=youtube.com/watch?v=p8ij_5bxeAY|title= Mario and Luigi Brothership's Boss Battles Are AMAZING!!!|publisher=YouTube|accessdate=October 26, 2024}}</ref>
*There is a vent to the north of the arena where [[Gobblick]] is fought, and its tongue can be grabbed to throw him into the vents. If successful, Gobblick will be stunned for several turns and its defense will lower until the effect wears off.<ref name=Nin10doland/>
*[[Mega Snaptor]] can use an attack that sends tornadoes at Mario and Luigi. Once the attack is finished, water pipes near a water tower in the background will begin rotating. Luigi can then align the pipes so they meet the end of the connection. Finally, Luigi opens the valve to the pump at the end, sending a torrent of water that sends Mega Snaptor into the ground. This allows Mega Snaptor to be targeted with ground attacks for several turns, as well as lowering its defense during that timeframe. This is the first boss Luigi Logic to not involve Mario whatsoever.
*When [[Sharpcask]] is fought, it can sometimes retreat into its shell and heal. It will stay in this state indefinitely, forcing the player to use Luigi Logic. Using Luigi Logic lets Luigi manipulate the conveyor belt to position the monster underneath falling crates to stun it for several turns. As with the first three examples, Sharpcask's defense lowers until its stun wears off.<ref>{{cite|author=Linkmstr|date=November 7, 2024|url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nrK4eqkLeVI|title=Mario & Luigi: Brothership - 12 - Color-Full Sea {{!}} Great Lighthouse + Boss: Sharpcask|publisher=YouTube}}</ref>
*During the battle against the [[Pipegunk]], [[Shun]] can use his remote to shift the arena to a hot area or a cold area, giving the monster power. However, Luigi can mug him for the remote. If Luigi succeeds with his theft, Shun gets tossed into the lava/freezing water, being unable to assist his bioweapon for several turns, and Luigi is free to shift the battle to a different environment. If Luigi shifts it to the opposite temperature environment, the Pipegunk will be stunned and take more damage than normal.<ref>{{cite|author=Linkmstr|date=November 8, 2024|url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rgx-3ZaBBWg|title=Mario & Luigi: Brothership - 18 - Brrrning Sea {{!}} Great Lighthouse + Boss: Pipegunk|publisher=YouTube}}</ref>
*During the battle against [[Glohm Bowser]], a [[Shy Guy Airtub]] will sometimes fly in. With Luigi Logic, Luigi can hijack the Airtub and Mario will jump on as well. They will then fly away, with Bowser flying after them. Luigi can then fire cannonballs at Bowser to deal damage and move left and right to avoid Bowser's attacks. After some time, the Airtub will fall back down to the ground. If the Airtub is hit by an attack, it will crash and the Luigi Logic will end. If Luigi attempts to use Luigi Logic when Bowser is not calmed, he will destroy the Airtub before the bros. can fly away, canceling the Luigi Logic.
*The fight with [[Weeping Reclusa]] has a mandatory Luigi Logic segment to progress the boss battle. Once [[Snoutlet]] is freed from one of the [[Doom Bloom]]s, Luigi can initiate a segment where the two brothers ride on a magic plug up Weeping Reclusa's body. [[Reclusa]] can attack in this segment, shooting out fire & ice balls, as well as creating thorny walls. The walls must be avoided, whereas the fire and ice balls can be doused with Mario and Luigi's own attacks. Reclusa then attacks with a large ball of dark energy, which must be repelled with a [[Bro Bomb]]. Failure in any of the segments will require the Weeping Reclusa phase to be started from the beginning. However, successfully repelling the dark energy ball allows the brothers to enter Weeping Reclusa's maw, continuing the boss fight and starting the phase against the [[Weeping Core]].
