    A video of my Link. Care to comment?

    You sure love your B moves. Yes, you shouldnt followup your downthrow with UpB, Marth will DI out of it. Use uptilts at low %, an air attack of your choice at higher %s. You use projectiles at dangerously close ranges! Again and again and again you pulled out bombs or fired arrows when you...

    Hookshot Retracting

    Yeah, if you're dashdancing, you should be able to catch the boomerang WITHOUT stopping to catch it. It just reaches you and dissapears. Same thing for if you're grabbing someone at the time. Also if you are doing an attack. SHFFLing Nairs are useful for that, so you don't spend time catching it

    so i got my first link vid up

    Buncha things here. I like the way you mix up your projectiles and air attacks, often in the same jump set. It gives you a decent approach. Flaws: 1. Do not use your arrows. They're too weak, not enough range with no chargeup, they don't stun much, no good for combos, bad cooldown.... -_-...

    Here is some tips when facing Fox.

    Totally agree. Aerial hookshot really isn't effective. UpB is probably the most effective, or dtilt or ftilt if they're going for the edge. I often like to nair off the edge though. It works great for me, and most of my opponents are familiar with, if not masters of, advanced play. It's...

    hey people please rate my Link

    I saw a lot of awesome things. Your bomb drop to Dair was awesome, I'm gonna experiment with that. Another awesome tactic I saw was Nair-dbl jump-Fair... I'll experiment with that too... Careful though, you used it like four times in one much against that peach. That's too many O_o; You...

    The down tilt and other underrated moves

    I once played a Link where all he ever did was roll behind you and then downtilt. Lol.. so stupid. But as long as you don't spam it all over the place, it can be more useful than the downsmash. If you mindgame it, you can get a good downtilt off. If you use it in the middle of some other...

    Smash... on the PC?

    One of my non-smash friends told me, "I can't wait until they get a gamecube emulator." That got me thinking. What if in five years, smash can be played with PC controls? It would be much more accessible to many more players. It's not inconceivable for SSBM to go online either. SSBB is...

    SMYM 7 (Champaign, IL March 24)

    what the... I coulda sworn I saw Rainbow Cruise on that neutral stage list.... yeah i know, sounds crazy, but I saw it there O_o; That first post was edited three days ago... was it taken off the list? I've been practicing on that stage for a while now because of this...

    SMYM 7 (Champaign, IL March 24)

    Might sound like a stupid question, but will there be projectors used in the tournament? I've used them before... there's a little lag time on them O_o;

    link?

    I really like Link and his moves, but I agree he isn't an upper tier character. His rhythm is too slow compared to other chars, and it leaves a lot of openings for the enemy if the sword is overused. Many opponents can get around the projectiles, and if a Sheik gets in close, she can give Link a...

    Link Speed, Improvements in General

    Link's speed Yeah, speed is one of Link's main problems... But that's why he has range and projectiles. He has to bide his time and fling stuff until he can grab an opportunity. If the opponent gets too close, (a Sheik, for instance), Link doesn't have much he can do. Sure, he can keep...

    Who would some good partners for Link be?

    Falcon is definitely a good matchup for Link. He really shines in 2v2... I played in a tournament with my brother (we got 3rd) and one of the 1st placers used Falcon. The match kept separating into 2 1v1s because of FF, but falcon kept abandoning his opponent, and leaped across the stage to...

    Link's bombs and Splode's list of Bomb tricks

    More tricks I got a couple more tricks with bombs. I'm a link player myself. Reflect and grab Most players will simply block a bomb, but it will bounce and float up a little bit... so dont run, keep going, grab the bomb, and use it quickly. They won't know what hit them. It's very...
