    Q&A Link's Take Over - Q&A and General Link Discussion

    @Hunybear Thanks. Tried searching on YouTube but all I could find was the one I linked to earlier.

    Q&A Link's Take Over - Q&A and General Link Discussion

    @Hunybear Do you have a link to a video of the match? Last time I watched them play, SAUS destroyed 4serial, with SAUS getting roughly 10 million shine-grabs during the set.

    Q&A Link's Take Over - Q&A and General Link Discussion

    Peach has much less endlag across her moveset relative to Link, can punish very hard if people try to crouch cancel her, and has faster OoS options, all of which have more knockback as well.

    Q&A Link's Take Over - Q&A and General Link Discussion

    I'm actually going to go with Hunybear here and say that Link struggles very hard against Foxes who 1.) Have solid shield pressure / tech in general, and 2.) Know how to crouch cancel effectively. If a Fox meets criteria 1 and 2, and Link is caught in his shield, there is literally nothing Link...

    What should I practice when grinding?

    I would recommend using the solo-mode (infinite time versus mode, one player) feature of 20XX. You can put on a podcast that you like, and practice fundamentals for a few minutes. It can be super relaxing, honestly. One thing I did when I was ****ed up on painkillers after shoulder surgery was...

    Grab punishes with Link

    Same here. Down-throw is usually the way to go until around 40% or so.

    Grab punishes with Link

    @JOJO94 @Stormghetti See below. Up-throw at 0% on Fox: Up-throw at 0% on Fox w/ shffl'd Upair leaves you a bit vulnerable, but there's enough time to buffer a role to get out of there. Another option:

    Chandy's 2016 Tier List (New Format)

    Finally, a tier list that puts Link above Young Link. I've always felt that way.

    Grab punishes with Link

    Fox can shine Link out of up-throw hitstun at very low percents. I just think that alot of Foxes don't know that. If the Fox knows about it and goes for the shine, you can actually get your shield up before the shine connects, and you can counter with a SHFFL'd aerial. If you want, I can post a...

    How do you beat a Falco with the following habits?

    ^This is one of the biggest aspects of the Sheik-spacie matchup I noticed when I recently reached somewhat mid-level Sheik play and subsequently played against mid-level spacies.

    Q&A Link's Take Over - Q&A and General Link Discussion

    Unrelated to the last few posts in this thread, but right now I'm kinda high on painkillers from surgery and I just have to say that I ****ing love bair to turnaround grab. Also, I think that Yoshi vs Link is heavily in Link's favor due to Link's nair hitbox duration being able to stop any...

    Q&A Link's Take Over - Q&A and General Link Discussion

    @Hunybear There were some short posts about punishing rest here and here. However, I wouldn't hold that data as scripture; I don't know where their data originated nor how they developed it, and I don't know if it's been confirmed by any reliable source. Anecdotally, I've found that around...
