Good idea. I will do just that.
Based on that, my best advice for you is to use directional air dodges less. There are several points in that particular match that you were relying on it as your only means to get over Richter, and he started predicting it and punishing pretty regularly. You should generally avoid directional air dodges entirely unless you need the extra recovery distance, or if you're going to do it towards the ground. Otherwise it just leaves you way too open.
You do a lot of full hop nairs with slow landings toward the opponent, which many players would shield & punish because you can see it coming. You could pull off about two or three short hop fast fall nairs in that same amount of time instead, making Link harder to approach (or could be used for ledge guarding, or just general mix-ups). In general, I think working on the short hop fast fall aerial motion might help you seem more unpredictable to your opponent, and you might get some more hits in.
