ok, not that i was expecting good (in fact, i was expecting it to be bad :P), but ign's link video is terrible. a couple fallacies:

they mentioned link's final smash was a "guaranteed kill", but in the clip they were showing, pit was sent up without being blocked by any objects and floated back down safely (no KO).

second, they said to use link's spin attack to get the smash ball, and accompanied it with clips of link hitting it one or two times with the spin attack, then floating up above it for the rest of the spin attack... with both didn't get many hits in and allowed very much time for the opponent to get the smash ball (though it was stupid and didn't do anything about it).... i'm not denying spin attack could be useful, but they could have at least used it well........ the way they used it, it would have been better just to keep using different aerials.

Wow. Most of that advice is absolutely terrible.

On the plus side, though, look how easily Zero Suit Samus died to the Spin Attack about halfway through. From what I've seen in other videos, uncharged Spin Attacks rarely kill even at above 150%. Did they buff charging a whole lot since E for All? Nobody ever bothers with the charge anymore.

What's a "Smash Orb?"

Anyway, well, it was a nice try... it could have been better.
