Does it matter?

I will be honest, it's making me a bit uncomfortable that we are talking about Cat like this. She's just a person like everyone else, why do we have to bring up things like her relationships/she's not my type stuff.
Though sweet and appreciated, I do not need anyone to stand up for me.

Do you morons even have any idea who you're talking about? As if I would date any of you losers. I could let most of you run off crying to your mommy because of 'cyberbullying'.

Any girl that could survive the Link boards for this long obviously doesn't need anyone to stand up for her. Cat is definitely one of those "self rescuing princess" types.

In other words, she's a grown, independent woman?

So apparently when my sister brought back my Wii U (along with the games and such) while I was still at school, she brought everything except for the ac adapter. When I try to contact her via phone call and text, she doesn't answer. It's been hours since then. On top of that, I'm leaving to New York for the rest of my damn summer tomorrow. If she doesn't return it in time, I'll have to ask my uncle to buy me another ac adapter online. Talk about the ultimate inconvenience. I'm royally pissed off right now.

Just buy one off of amazon. Shouldn't be that expensive. Don't inconvenience your uncle. >.<

1. It was confiscated a long time ago because of bad grades like last year, as I said before. She took it for safe keeping and so she could use it in the meantime.
2. What are you talking about? The ac adapter for the console is missing, meaning that I can't even turn the damn thing on. That's the worst thing about this whole mess. I finally have my Wii U to myself after all this time and I can't even use it. How frustrating.

Yeah well I bet he'd be all for buying me something (he probably plans to), but still. I'm 17 for crying out loud, I'd hate to ask him for anything, especially after he just lost his unborn child. One of the reasons I'm headed to his place is to cheer him up and help out with things over there.

I don't know how I feel about this video. I mean, I like how ZeRo sees that Link's has gotten some good buffs. But then again, some of the things he said sound just really jerky.

I wouldn't be this upset if it were just my game pad charger.

Edit: So judging by the gameplay uploaded onto Zane's channel, how good of a Link do you guys think I am? All of it is online gameplay which holds me back, but still. Rate from 1-10 if you want, I just want your honest opinion. Do you enjoy my gameplay?

No explanation as to why you think that? And although that's true, it's still wifi all the same.

If I were to rate you I'd give you a 5/10.

5 being average, 6 being fine, 7 good and so on.

The issue here is you play very unsafe. Link really can't afford mistakes in competitive play. You should be careful about playing online because you'll get the wrong ideas about what is and is not safe. Additionally your movement is lacking. I'm not saying randomly move around but you need to efficiently create space and effectively utilize it. There's also the issue in that you don't demonstrate understanding of your character. You should know when Down Throw to Up Smash no longer works for example. You should know your follow-ups. You should know the AT such as FF Bair cancels, Bombslides, Jab 2 Cancels, etc. If you do know your AT then I question why you don't use them as I've seen chances for you to do so. You also need to optimize yourself. For example when recovering why pick Up B over tether? You could cut down time that you're vulnerable during and reduce time for your opponent to set-up their ledge defense. Why bother charging arrows anyways? It's a waste of time where you're vulnerable and unless your opponent is terrible they'll block it. Charged arrows should only be used if your opponent is launched far off stage.

You also do not utilize bombs despite nearly all of Link's true combos revolving around it. How can I say you're a good Link if something this fundamental is missing?

Then there's the details that you're missing. I saw zero pivot F-tilts, pivot Zairs, pivot grab, B-reverse bow shots, etc. They all have their uses but if you're going about your match-ups the same way you won't find a use for them.

Learn to play your match-ups is what I'm saying. In For Glory you drop all that knowledge and rush in because you're not treating your opponent with respect which is something you cannot do competitively.

Finally I don't see the mind games. I don't see you conditioning your opponent, baiting them, etc but why should you when it's online right? Don't get complacent online or you will struggle to grow as a player.

While I've only watched some of your videos that's my opinion as a competitive player. I know a lot of what I'm saying might not come across as important as it is but when I placed fifth at a bi-annual just last Saturday it opened my eyes to how far off I still am. If Link is to be viable he must be played with complete focus, he must be more efficient than his opponent and he must make no mistake.

Edit: Anther's Ladder is a great place to get practice. I'm not sure whether you want to play competitive or not but if you want to be improve quickly your competition has to be better.

If you are so easily scared away, then you already lack the courage that is required to be a true Link main.

Was not a huge fan of sunshine but I think Mario 3 should be in S tier in my opinion.

Yeah sorry, it's been a bit of a mess at your sister's since I was there.

Sorry, I'm the "sit quietly in a room for seven years before he gets his triforce of courage" kind of Link.
