Sup guys, this training session was recorded on Wednesday. I'm just looking to improve as much as possible, either in general or character specific, so feel free to watch as much as you'd like. The description has a bunch of time-stamps for all the matches, including each character it is against...

Just in case anyone was wondering, I'll be updating everything in the OP with respect to v1.0.4 once I can get my hands on the Wii U version, which might be a few weeks, I'm not sure. I apologize for the delay, but bills and real life exist unfortunately. Until then I'll remove the section on...

Apologies for not checking on the thread within the last few weeks, I went on a family vacation! Depending on my financial situation, hopefully I'll be able to grab the Wii U version shortly after its release and be able to better test and experiment with Link stuff. Also, the 3DS version...

Yeah, I posted about that and added it to the OP about 2 weeks ago. Wasn't sure if it had a name so called it DownB Canceling. Thanks, though.

So umm, jab > jab cancel > jab is a true combo at higher percents. This should makes things fun. I've managed a 14 hit combo in training mode, and that's without stale moves, haha. I'll add something about it to the OP after some more messing around.

KO percents for the following moves have been retested and updated: Utilt Ftilt Fsmash Fsmash 2nd hit Usmash Dsmash (both hits) Nair Dair (At all points of the move's behavior) Uair (Initial hit) UpB (Grounded) Uthrow As always, while specific percents are given, keep in mind the...

Added DownB canceling to the Advanced Techniques section. It's pretty neat, check it out. Not sure if it already has a name, but seems appropriate.

I forget that not many people had extensive Link experience in Brawl. Just like in Brawl, Smash 4 Link will perform an air attack if you press the "grab" function after being hit from either Zair or a tether recovery. To prevent this, do the second one with "airdodge" + "attack", Link will not...

I'm the other dude up here in Minot. Like Rayku said, we're at Gorilla Games in Dakota Square Mall every Tuesday and Thursday from about 6 to 11 PM. We typically play Melee. I'm more than willing to sit down and take the time to teach newer players the mechanics of the game, and of course...

I'm glad you guys are liking the thread! @LinkSpecialist This is literally my favorite thing ever right now. Walk-n'-block all day. @Ryu Myuutsu Gale Boomerang does have significantly reduced recovery animation, enough that when combined with its stun, can even combo into itself. I'll add that...

Blubba_Pinecone's Smash 4 Wii U and 3DSLink moveset analysis and impressions. Current plans for updates: Add custom moves to specials section. Continue to post new, useful information as it is found. Hi all, I've been eagerly anticipating this new Link from what pre-release footage I've...

Great write-up there, Zane. I wonder if Zair will still combo into dash attack with its increased startup. If so, I see that being a fantastic KO strategy based on a simple, safe Zair hit-confirm. I believe I saw Link's backroll in the Smash Direct video a month or so ago. It's that L-Target...

I never left, I was just in Melee. ;3

Well, farewell Brawl Link. You were one helluva piece of ****, but I stuck with ya for a good 5 years. Forgive me Brawl Link-kun for I have been in a steady relationship now with Melee Link-senpai. As for Smash 4 Link, here's what I know: Zair still autocancels upon landing(saw it on...

Alright, here's some friendlies with my training buddy, Rayku. The matches are against various characters and start at around 22:40 (before that we were playing Lighting mode, which... is also fun to watch). http://www.twitch.tv/blubba_pinecone/b/442455132 I apologize for the video and audio...
