How to approach Zelda.

[Majini]

This is by far one of weakest points with my Diddy. Her B...*****. That's all I can say about it. And Din's Fire spam keeps you from getting yo' bananas.

i say approach with an aerial or side b/dash attack

 

[D1RE]

As a former Sheik main I do of course have some experience with Zelda. She's a good camper, no doubt, and dins' can be quite a pain. However, against Zelda, I would suggest moving towards her powershielding all the dins and then use a tilt, dtilt or ftilt, to force her out of the camping. Use the nanas the same way you would against wolf or fox, and try to get her into the air. She's practivally defenseless against juggling and it should be easy to rack up % once you can get her airborn. Remember never, evver aproach her from the air. She wrecks you fi you do an aerial approach. That's the ittle input you can get from me now.

Oh, and fear her dsmash if she saved it, it's fast and kills you around 100% ~120% I think.

Zelda being a light weight character shoudlnt be too hard to kill. Alot of her specials require good timing against a fast chimp like Diddy Kong. Her Up smash and Foward smash is something you have too look out for though. Those throws of hers are dangerous but most of the time you will end up playing a defensive Zelda.

Just don't.... get caught in the fuzzy stuff Her reflector is ****.

My friend's Zelda is the BANE OF MY DIDDY EXISTENCE (aside from the obvious reasons in the form of falco and rob and etc), up smash and side b are **** machines...

 

[Foufy]

I love playing Zelda mains.
Diddy is quick and fluid and I find that the Zelda's I play against are constantly shield-whoring so its easy to just banana->grab

 

[Kayzee]

Use peanuts as an approach. They won't get reflected back, they'll just break when they reach Naryu's. Shield the Din's accordingly, then attack with a low aerial when you get into range. You could stay use a dash attack or an up smash as opposed to an aerial, but don't approach Zelda from above or you'll more than likely end up caught in an up smash.

If you want to use bananas as an approach, bait Naryu's by dropping a banana with Z, or tossing the bananas up or down.

I find that I just have an easy time against zelda. I just shield past din's, and as soon as the moment arises, Monkey Flip kick.

Then again, it still is relatively hard, seeing as my other main is snake... :V

 

[rinoH]

Zeldas are the most annoying people to play just mindgame her to use her attacks that have alot of lag

 

[DFEAR]

yea i agree with kayzee here. just baiting the projectiles from zelda should really create a huge opening for ur awesome combo :3 just make sure in the beginning of match to have at least 1 banana and not be too cocky and get 2 in case of teh fire o-o. oh and yea watch out for neutral b and what else ugh her upair o-o but thats just lolz. plus her spike is quite deadly same with her bair and fair. just space accordingly and play smart and it shouldnt pose a threat. though easier said than done of course. zeldas are teh smart

 

[Dragoomba]

Peanut peanut peanut side b in my personal opinion.

Just don't.... get caught in the fuzzy stuff Her reflector is ****.

summed up the whole matchup there pretty much. all her moves are just very punishing. just create less mistakes than the zelda and outsmart them and your set :3. harder said than done for sure. but to me pit>zelda
