Bomb>like anything almost, Close Range Rang>fair/nair, and uncharged arrows for jab locks on missed techs are what I find the most use for. Rang is dangerous to use up close so bombs are probably better and just remember to shoot an arrow when a tech situation arises.

My fantasy was that they would alter the d-throw hitstun and kb to make dthrow>reverse ftilt> arrow (jab lock) actually work on more than just Bowser. That combo is way cool looking but just being able to actually use throws is pretty great to me so I'm cool with what we got.

The buffs are good and it's fun to play Link again imo

ZSS is broken as far as I'm concerned. That is all.

My foxtrot game with Link isn't very good. I'm either just not feeling it or Link as a character is too slow for it, but either way I haven't been using it effectively anyway so it hasn't changed my game too much.

My new obsession is learning how to not dash everywhere so I can get the most out of my idle shield. Honestly Link's dash doesn't even seem much faster than his fastest walk speed and it's helping me by discouraging the use of the awful dash attack which has like a 25 year wind up and cool down...

You're not wrong, but I think I was pretty up front about the fact that FG is Scrubtown, capitol city of Scrubtopia, of which I am also running for President.

Getting a Link amiibo to hasten the robot apocalypse

Almost all my FG experience has been in doubles with my roommate and his Shulk or ZSS. Link is really good in team FG at least because of the time limit. With team attack off it's insane how many unsafe moves you can cover with just a boomerang or arrow shot. Doubles FG is stupid like that. In...

Using custom equips for reduced landing lag and 'skating traction' feels great. Still can't find a use for Ripping Boomerang or GiantBomb.com. Standard Up-B seems far and away the best version of that move. I like that Meteor Bombs combo so well and if they had a fuse like standard bombs I'd use...

Why you gotta be like that?

Same, but also with Dark Pit and Dr. Mario. AND TOON LINK. The game only needs one Link. Pick one and mash together all the best parts about both characters and end up with one decent one.

Well I'm certainly not gonna develop the next Smash game!

Sakurai is literally killing himself to make Smash stuff for us to enjoy. I say take it easy on the poor guy.

I don't think hoarding secrets really encourages people to give the character a try. Also the more people playing a character means a better Link meta. There's already a high enough technical requirement to play a winning Link so why shoot ourselves in the foot just to be character hipsters?
