Yeah, but Death Battle magorly screwed up on Luigi vs Tails. (And Mario vs Sonic to a much lesser extent.) For one, Luigi is much more independent (conquered an entire universe by himself, while Tails pretty much relies on Sonic for most stuff.) Also, Luigi is way more durable (tanking a SUPERNOVA without a scratch in Super Mario Galaxy)

But it was Luigi's Negative Zone that really changes the outcome. To me, that was the only reason Tails won (the Negative Zone's effect is random, and it seems they just chose a harmless effect so Tails would win.) However, the zone's more likely to make Tails fall asleep. And Luigi gains the perfect opprotunity to kill Tails during that (and like I said, sleeping's most likely to happen to opponents).
