Hey @ Pazx Pazx I'm probably going to go to this major tournament coming up next week. https://www.facebook.com/events/1484296835163877/ I won't be as active or practice as much as I use to back in Brawl , but I'll show up to meets and tourneys that Tin Man organises whenever I can. Do you ever go to those Monday/Thursday meets?
I'm tossing up going to Zeal as I'm kinda strapped for cash but I've been to a few weeklies and CC9, will see how I go over the next week before making my mind up about Zeal.

Just had an idea!
TP Link= Treasure Planet Link ~ Steampunk Link, which results in
Stop taking other people's ideas and work and trying to pass them off as yours. You didn't "have and idea" if someone has already drawn a picture depicting it and you happened to find the notion cool. Everything is wrong in your post, from what you say to how you say it. It gives off the impression that you came up with it and drew the picture, of which you did neither.

I guess I'm maining Link again <.<
You are still not ready, fool. You do not "guess" you are maining Link, you know it in your inmost heart. Every fiber of your being must shout out his name. Every waking thought must be subordinated to your duty as a Hyrulian smasher. "I am a Link main" -- that is the iron string to which all our hearts vibrate.

Fixed.

I already greeted you in two of the three languages we speak here, trolling and flaming. Now I'll greet you in the third one. Welcome to our little corner of insanity. Try not to take everything that isn't mechanics and meta related too seriously nor to get offended by us. Enjoy your stay and troll away.

You make us all proud. Good man.

My oh my Shin, you even showed restraint. I was fully expecting to see a Kwack rather than Kong, even if he was mailing the chimp rather than Gay. How gentlemanly of you sir. I hope you aren't going soft on us.

Btw, I figured out a few more ways to z-drop a bomb without having a Zair come out. There are the relatively known ways which is to z-drop a bomb immediately after doing a SH/FH or ledghop, but I found that the same can be done by z-dropping the bomb immediatley after any aerial, a footstool, or out of hitstun. So doing a ZAC is now more possible than ever.

Why in Farore's name are we discussing Gay issues in here? He's worse, he has always been worse because he's an abomination aborted by Sakurai's degenerate mind.



Kid, I'll tell you the same thing I've been telling everyone with your same quandary. This is not brawl, why are you trying to play it like brawl? You wouldn't play melee like you'd play brawl and vice versa. The why try to play a whole new game like an older completely different game? Forget about Brawl and Brawl' meta. Focus on learning this meta and focus on learning your char from scratch, as if it were completely different chat, because guess what, IT IS.

Also, my dog forgives you.
Because Tink is Link:seuss:.

You guys are going to kill me, aren't yo-
*gets shot*


Also, just to clarify, I am not playing Toon Link like brawl, I not stupid, however Toon Link does have flaws that sometimes out shine the buffs he got. I should probable stop talking about "gay" now, shouldn't I. Though speaking of clones, how would you guys react if Young Link was confirmed back for DLC, whether he is or isn't a clone.

And that was without even a drop of whiskey. Next time it'll be your other knee.

Young Link is okay by me. The Hero of Time did work.

Mercinary Link. I drew this myself btw. Opinions/critiques, anyone?
Awesome! I really wish i had the patience and talent to do what you did. This should be Zane's new avatar imo.

The Hero of Time saved two worlds before hitting 10, and grows up to become the Hero's Shade and help another Link save another Hyrule, so basically he saved 3 worlds.

Gay grew up to become a freaking train operator.

I found the train aspect of Spirit Tracks out of place for the Zelda series. Trains were invented in 1804 (steam locomotive by Richard Trevithick). Link's still fighting with a sword.

Swords saw (limited) use in World War 1. Still, I agree. But the Zeldaverse has always had schizotech.

^Yeah but not the medieval sword and shield setup Link has. Early modern firearms like flint lock rifles came out in the 17th century. The Zelda series is supposed to have a loose knights on horseback with swords, shields, bows, etc feel.
(I'm also opposed to the robots with serial numbers in SS)

Well, we have a meta-game thread and a guide stickied, so those would be a good start.IMO Link is a character who craves balance. Spam too much? get bopped, Aggro too much? git rekd sun, so I would advise you to use the video thread to find some practice material. Get a good feel for Link's pacing and then play some friends. As soon as you start working in a little technical play give a couple wifi matches with us a try and see how it pays off. #1 advice on wifi though, it's is most definitely not srsbzns, so just enjoy and have a good time :D

Or to put it the way everyone else will, DO WORK SON.

I will WifiRAGE...Jk no I won't, all good fun I know :p

I guess I can pick up Link and give it a try again, my friend has been playing better then me with Link and he's a Mario player, can't let that happen.

"Out of place" is a pretty loose term to use. There are many things in Zelda that seem OoP (yes, I'm calling it that). Link on a talking boat; a demonic-looking moon on the outside with a peaceful, lush playground on the inside; Link taking pictures and talking to a phone... Yeah, you get the point.

The Zelda series is pretty OoP compared to most other fantasy games. Unlike those games, you can't place it in a timeline realistically since it contains things from a wide range of periods in time. They're all implemented pretty nicely.

IMO ^this applies to most fantasy games.

Maybe 'out of genera' is a better way to phrase it. The Zelda series is a medieval knights and magic game and shouldn't have futuristic or steam puck technology imo. If I wanted a dungeon buster with robots I'd play Megaman Legends (AKA MM64).

Is anyone else loving his upsmash? I never used it much in melee but it seems much more fluid and has more range/priority now. Very underrated move I think. After getting a solid feel for him almost everything is better. I just wish he had a faster dash speed and I preferred his boomerang in melee.

.....what the ****.
Shhhhh, shshshsh. It's ok now, don't worry, everything is OK. Just relax and don't worry about anything. You're in good hands now, among friends even. Don't struggle, just sit back and enjoy the ride. Uncle Shin is finally here.

His usmash has been buffed this time around actually since it can now combo into itself, and the final hit has quite some knockback. It's still underrated only one people who keep playing sm4sh as brawl. However, it is still not quite safe since whiffing it leads to severe punishment.

Also, one of the customs is his 64/melee boomerang. Hope they allow customs in tourneys.
