Let's just keep in mind there's over 70 characters and there's not like an awful lot of data to go off right now. It's easy for us to see areas that Zelda needs buffs in, but when there's all the other fighters to worry about, it makes sense why she might not have gotten any changes. Plus it...

YOOOO WHAT THE ACTUAL **** okay this is epic This was actually so hype to watch, trying so hard to not look stupid at work right now!! Literally as I was watching this I was making mental notes of clips that were sick but there's wayyy to many to actually list them. That said, I still HAVE to...

I also rarely use it too, but I think it does have it uses. It comes out frame 5 (as fast as her dtilt) and sends opponents at a very low angle. Could make for a good quick option when near the ledge, especially when the other character has bad recovery.

Yeah, that was me! And yeah, maybe I worded it poorly or gave off the wrong idea. I was kinda more talking about the goal/mindset of being the best in the world, playing to win, for high placings and results etc.. Like solely just to win. I think it's fair to say there are better characters...

Some of the stuff here was sick! One thing that stood out to me is how you use Din's with Phantom when they're on the ledge. I've never tried using Din's to cover a certain get up option and normally occupy the ledge with a Phantom behind me. What scenarios do you find Din's to be better...

Don't worry about not performing as well as you'd hoped to. When you get really nervous you will always second guess your decision making which leads to poor play. I don't really know how you feel towards the game competitively, but for me I am not taking this game 100% seriously. If I was I'd...

We should definitely post some cool stuff we pull off here too. A lot easier to show off/explain certain setups/matchups/ledgeguards etc. through video rather than a wall of text. And with the ability to easily convert stuff directly to videos, we should take advantage of that and get some clips...

This makes a lot of sense, I just have trouble dealing with things/characters that Phantom isn't safe against. It feels like you need to make accurate reads because a bad jump, Nayru's and Jab (if you rapid jab them if they dash and shield into you) can often end up getting punished, and with...

I've been really trying to get into understanding neutral the past 2 weeks and after realising how risky/careless I played before, it's making me realise Zelda is harder than I thought. I agree about Phantom being overrated. Against certain matchups, Phantom becomes really difficult to pull off...

Thought I'd get a thread going for this and I think it might help a lot of us if we're all talking about how to deal with certain characters or situations. I've been having a tough time vs (surprise surprise) aggressive sword characters, :ultike: Ike, :ultlucina: Lucina, :ultchrom: Chrom etc...

I definitely need to mess around with doing this a little more aggressively as most of my jumps with Phantom are away from my opponent, which against faster characters probably makes more sense but being able to threaten more space jumping towards some characters does seem pretty strong. A lot...

So I just played a ton of Quickplay (probably 25+ matches or so) and pretty much got bodied, only winning like 5-6 of them. Aside from my fundamentals being shaky (I need to stop shielding so much...), one thing I noticed that kept happening throughout a lot of those matches was how (poorly) I...

Yeah I've been struggling vs fast characters too. If you can predict an approach, Nayru's works wonders, especially against Sonic as he is a little more telegraphed than most other characters. Its still risky to go for blindly as they can easily mix up their movement, and there's a ton of end...

HEY GORLS! Pretty new to competitive Smash (or at least learning and trying to get better). I only started trying to actively learn the game about 6 months ago on Smash 4 (Ultimate got me hype), but now it's here! I'm playing the hell out of it and damn I love it every bit I thought I would...

As a quick BTW, fresh dairing the hydrant won't stale it, so you can drop as many hydrants and knock them away as long as you don't hit anyone with your dair.
