I've been playing Smash Bros for a couple years now. I've been playing Link most of that time. Me and my friends consider ourselves to be pretty good. We shffl and have our timing for all attacks pretty much down. I'm actually the worst of the 4 of us that play so much. And I noticed that all of our skill levels follow the Tier list to a T. Best in order: Ben (Falco), Mike (C. Falcon), My brother (Samus), Me (Link).
I always argue that it's their character being better and that is why they win. I see their great killer moves (Falco's Dair, Falcon's Knee, Samus's Missiles) and then I look at Link, I don't see anything that special, he can't kill at 50-70% like most other characters can and it seems much harder for him to kill period because he needs to beat them to 100%+ but by then a Falco sidekick or dair, Falcon's Knee, or Samus's Missile has easily taken the kill. Falco and C. Falcon seem to win most of the time in FFA and take most of the kills with them, but then when we get to the 1v1s I actually stand a chance.
Does anybody else have trouble with Link in 4-Player FFA or do I just suck? (I mean, sometimes I do pretty well, but then Ben (Falco) enters the game and then pretty much sweeps everyone down the sides) I really think I've got Link pretty much figured out after playing him for such a long time. I don't see how my friends can this much better than me (and just so happen to be following the Tier list ) They always argue that all characters are perfectly equal, and then I argue that the creators of this game aren't perfect...
I guess my main question here is: Does anybody here ever dominate with Link against high tier characters with around equal skill to your own in a 4-Player FFA?
I'm almost ready to switch over to Falco
