try looking at this video. I think Kent did pretty good considering he had to play against D3.

 

[Rizen]

DDD's hard and getting 2 stocked by a DDD on SV isn't bad for Link. I still have a similar verdict; the DDD was too passive and missed a lot of opportunities to shield grab, especially landings. When he started figuring out to pressure Link later in the game the DDD did much better.
I tend to judge Links harshly for spacing too close. ...because my own temptation to do so, lol.
He's not bad at all but IMO he's not a smart/safe player so much as a quick player in those. *shrug*

 

[Bomber7]

Link boaaaard! I miss you guys! It's been like 2 years since I was last here! How's everyone!

 

[LordXav1er]

Yeah Kent is pretty good, he plays a very high risk high reward type play style. Which as Rizen said isn't very safe for Link to do all the time.

 

[Rizen]

Hi, I missed you too.
btw, here's what I do for my main: http://www.smashboards.com/showthread.php?t=325062
(Link boards so I can post this, lol http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aLJpR5ognqM&feature=plcp )

TBH, extremely depressed.

 

[Onomanic]

Are there any, like, really good Link mains left from around 2008-2009? I remember Legan, Deva, and Izaw. Does those guys still play?

It's a shame these boards aren't what they used to be after the whole Buzz Saw drama.

 

[Rizen]

^ALSM, KirinBlaze too. Legan still plays but mostly other characters, Deva's gone life hit him, don't know/care.
I noticed Bwill's been playing wifi lately. IDK about Europe, Catpukee, Afro, Mr.R etc. Elssar mentioned several Links have a facebook group but somebody else will have to fill you in. X, Scizor and Ninja Link(what's his name?) still hit tourneys with Link and ALSM is going all Link for the next big one. And Ano's back
Kent's in Japan.

 

[LordXav1er]

ALSM's big tourney just passed it was WHobo 4, he didn't place too well I am guessing cuz he been using MK to much could be a bit rusty with Link.

http://www.smashboards.com/showthread.php?t=326126

Deva vanished again, maybe for good this time?

Legan uses multiple characters, some link here and there from what I hear.

Izaw mains Sheik now I believe but also not too active as used to be.

Scizor is a pretty solid new Link main tho.

KirinBlaze still really good also still hanging around in the scene but just doesn't post much anymore.

Ninja-the-link-sage is active tourney going Link tho I don't hear much about him anymore and he like never posts here xD

Kent for Japan's best Link.

idk what happened to rest x_x

81st in pools ouch. They were arranged hard for many people I heard.
Edit: it's nice to see so many lower than high tiers place well and the character variety with MK banned. 5 Ike, DK. 7 Ness. 9Wolf, PT...


I knew he wasn't n i/nja Link but couldn't think of anything else

Damn Kent's Link is pretty sick kinda. Makes me want to embrace the spam. I wish Link's spam would rack up damage faster.

Wow, that's the first time I've seen xat post in a long while

And look at all the activity on the boards!

Maybe we need to make another xat page? I'll check it out and see if I can't make one.

EDIT: Here's the new xat page for us. :3

Guys, if you're not in the FB group, add me (Dan Yamashiro) and I'll see if I can add you to the group. I know Ele's said stuff about it, but I'm just reminding you guys I guess.

Type in "zerg rush" into google search.

The rush is overwhelming. 0.o

What is this Facebook group? Btw is this guy you blue? https://fbcdn-profile-a.akamaihd.net/hprofile-ak-snc4/273437_1548225369_835214048_n.jpg

Do AiB Link's still hate SWF?

Also love Sheik's theme in Ocarina of Time DS.

No. AiB's nearly dead, including the Link boards.

Dusting off the gears of the old Link forums and getting them running again:
__________________________________________
I made this thread for art and stuff http://www.smashboards.com/showthread.php?t=326707
it has 40 views atm but no one posted. I would like to get things like that bad*** pic of a really buff Link with a cigar that Scabe had, sigs with Link, sometimes people have cool fan art, that techno youtube of OoT sounds mixed to make a song, art we made (Chaser might have some stuff)...

If this takes off could it be stickyed? These things can attract a lot of good posts over time but fall fast during activity droughts.

___________________________________________
My guide is still a WIP http://www.smashboards.com/showthread.php?t=325062 . It's getting there and I AM working hard on it. When finished can that be sticky-ed too? The 'current' sticky guide was last updater 11/16/08 and is extremely dated. It has things like:
"B) The Chaingrab
No, this is not a joke pertaining to Link’s clawshot grab. A “chaingrab” is a chain of grabs strung together, usually one right after the other. If one is to exploit the minimal knockback distance of Link’s Dthrow, they can combo it together with a second, or even a third Dthrow. In other words, you can string together multiple Dthrows if you time them correctly. Link’s chaingrab may not be as effective as Falco’s or King DeDeDe’s, but it can rack up damage easily at lower percentages"
and
"Up Smash-4%-5%~3%-4%~10%-14%-Start up-Fast-Lag-Medium/High-Speed-SLOW-Priority-High- This attack does 3 hits in succession. (Damage has been listed in chronological order) The first hit sends the enemy a bit upward, the second hits them up a bit more, then the third sends them sky high! This move has about the same upward knockback as a Dtilt. (Yeah, Dtilts that awesome)"


____________
The 'Important Threads' thread is outdated too. The Link boards need to clean house and organize our forums. Especially now that they're active and we have a reason too finally, lol.

 

[Onomanic]

That is me, yes. The FB group is hidden so it's invite only. Add me or Ele on FB for an invite. It's a lot of the old SWF/AiB guys mainly.

EDIT:
Don't knock the NintenJoe guide, that was the best guide one of the best guides on these boards back in my day! sasook's was pretty good as well but I suppose times change.

And the zerg rush thing in google is oooooold. :3

 

[Rizen]

^The keyword is 'was' one of the best guides. But that was '08. Which I agree it was good at the time; read it when I started, lol. We really need an updated Link guide now though.

(I had to facepalm the Dtilt praise)

@ Ano have you thought up words for your sig?

 

[Bomber7]

So much has changed since '08 so really anything from back then should be updated.

Yeah if it takes off I'll sticky it.

And yeah Link boards could use some cleaning. Give me like a month and I'll start putting in some effort to getting this place real nice and organised and looking good.

The Link boards is just like this smiley right here, we're all happy and nice but pretty dirty with all our unorganized threads: all we have to do is polish it up a bit and then it will look like this:

...Yeah I'm just practicing on making analogies.

 

[Rizen]

^The smiley icons were the icing of that sweet analogy; I literally lol-ed a little.

Thanks.

 

[escro]

Scabe you should help the Link community in a more practical way...
by getting back into competitive smash!
=P

 

[~automatic]

No. AiB's nearly dead, including the Link boards.

Victory for Smashboards!

 

[Onomanic]

Victory for Smashboards!

Perhaps I missed something but is why my other community being dead a victory? I vaguely remember a rivalry of some kind.

 

[Bomber7]

Well if it's any consolation. At least the Zelda board will never die on AiB.

 

[Rizen]

I've kept both sites alive for a long time. AiB had too many technical difficulties so I rarely post there anymore. The conflict's over as far as anyone who was part of it cares. There's no point in grave digging.
AiB might recover (not likely though), SWF was dead for some time too.

 

[Anonano]

The conflict's over as far as anyone who was part of it cares.

Speaking about it past this really only drives people away as they look at the discussion and go, "Wow, this is a lot of drama that isn't worth it."
...

I'm here for the WiFi these days. Tbh I'm not much of a fan of the local scene here in Utah.

I'm pretty lame when it comes to finding words for my sig. Give me one more day.

@Scabe: Please do start cleaning things up ASAP! Time to get rid of old stickies, perhaps get new owners for important stickies that are active. *shrug*

 

[Onomanic]

Metgame wise, have I missed anything with Link? I haven't seriously played Brawl in three or four years, lol. I play an '09 Link!

Alrighty, I'll get working on a thread on things we can improve and delegate jobs to people who want to volunteer to help clean things up and make things new. It'll look something like this: http://www.smashboards.com/showthread.php?t=279504

And since no one plays the Wii now I can put the Wii in my room and start playing some good old WiFi again. Hope the lag isn't as bad as I remember

I haven't been able to practice Wifi in a while since I worry the my internet being cut off from a phone call.

could be worse, your microwave could kill it like for some people i know.

/jk. That sucks about your internet .

@ Ryu Thanks for the sticky

 

[#HBC | Red Ryu]

It only started recently with phone calls, so either I play at night, which I am usually out and about with friends, or I risk it during the day.

Yeah, wireless controller! I have the same one and the same problem with the joystick, too.

It happened when I was playing DBZ Budokai 2 for the gamecube and you have to rotate both control sticks as hard as you can for clashes. Yeah, clashes!
