Hmm I thought when you said MU thread you meant in WFT's character discussion page, but whatever if this works...
hmmm I guess that could work, but i get so scared to try cause of that damn sword.
really? i didnt know that.
This has never happened to me, but they sound like the real heroes of wifi.
yeah i do that charge little by little.
They seem this way only because they play in a way that exploits lag. Basically, they're used to playing with delay and use moves and stats that maximize effectively without actually being useful offline. Most of these people will lose horribly in offline marches. My advice is to go to our social thread and ask for sparring partners. Any Link main here will be happy to play you and provide feedback. We're not wifi heroes (with the exception of @Powerstar9 and @link and ike lover) so we'll suffer in lag with you should there be any.
are you taking about miniscule lag that happens in pretty much all online mathces? cause I hardly ever notice any typical normal lag.
Doesn't matter if it's minimal or major, if there is any at all someone's normal playstyle will be affected. The prevalence of scrub little macs has a lot to do with how fast his rolls and dash attack are, combined with super armor on all of his smash attacks means that you either get beat out, or don't challenge his attacks.
That depends a lot on your Internet connection. What Zane said is true, but you also need to take into account that even with minimal lag things like powershielding which is a MUST against Link and teching becomes quite harder if not impossible, again all depending on the lag.
This worthless spam serves no other purpose than to reveal how little you know about the game. Ness can't do anything against Link's projectiles that WFT can't since his downB doesn't absorb physical items, which just happen to be all of Link's projectiles.
Have you tried crouching under his projectiles? WFT has one of the lowest crouches in the game. You can also dash -> shield projectile -> dash out of shield grab/etc.
y but ness can absorb projectiles u know
Only energy-based projectiles such as Fox's lasers. Physical-based projectiles (which is what Link's projectiles qualify to be) cannot be absorbed by Ness.
I told him that, but apparently @
eradication0
is too much of a scrub to even read and acknowledge a correction. Besides, the OP came to ask for tips on fighting Link with his current main, so telling him to switch chars while trying, and failing horribly, to be witty is nothing but spam. Although, I assume he (@
eradication0
) must be pretty accustomed to failure by now.
Ness can only absorb the explosion of Link's bombs, so unless you want arrows and boomerangs to the face I suggest another approach. And, in case you haven't noticed, this thread is about the Link vs. Wii Fit Trainer MU -- your advice doesn't help anyone. We don't solve Brawl MUs by telling people to play Metaknight instead either. Leave and post when you have something substantial to add.
It doesn't make sense, but Ness can absorb Link's bomb.
We'll stop being "rude" when you stop being a scrub. Now don't post in this thread again unless you have something to say about this specific MU.
Don't derail, this is to talk about WFT, not Ness. If you want to discuss Ness go to the Ness MU thread or create one if we don't have one.
Don't be an idiot and we won't be rude.
You can just save the replay and the record it with your phone or something. It's always better to have replays so we can address your specific failings. Don't worry about professional quality, just that it's good enough to understand and provide critique.
When the time comes that Nintendo finishes the ability to share replays I will be more than happy to record and upload them for you Shinuto.
yeah! how do you that yourself ?
He has an HD video capture equipment, I forgot the name. Really good quality, he offered us all the service here in the boards but sadly there is just no way to share replays atm.
Man I want to get into uploading replays to youtube myself eventually.
The guys to talk about that are @
Zane the pure
, @BryE, and @Zelkam iirc. BryE is specially good at it. Check his vids and posts at the video critique thread.
Having a Nair shielded is bad for Link, but unfortunately can be very hard to punish on Wifi.
This is one of those cases where what I told you applies, the delay got you. A good way of dealing with an approaching nair, or to approach when they busy one out into powershield it and grab. You can powershield while moving if you let go of the stick and tap the shield at the same time. This would render the attack useless and give you a frame advantage. Problem is doing it with online delay.
