Link: Full Guide & Discussion Topic

[SSBPete]

You must be a jerk to main Link with that opinion then

but he's really bad so it doesn't matter

 

[asianaussie]

oy, is mine

i will not dispute any other part of that post though

 

[B Link]

Good links are annoying

They make me nervous cuz I never wanna lose to a LINK (unless I'm samus or luigi or something lol)

 

[ciaza]

exactly

playing as a high tier against a low tier is annoying because you have everything to lose and nothing to gain

like beating a link as a fox means nothing but beating a fox as link counts

guess that's why i play low tiers a lot =3

 

[The Star King]

you're wrong, playing high tier vs low tier is fun because you get to abuse your char and feel like a villain

 

[Sangoku]

Playing Link is annoying with any char, because his playstyle implies things we don't like (camp/run away, projectile spam, etc).

inb4 Star King pointing out Euro's campy Links (it's been better lately though)

 

[asianaussie]

playing link using a campy playstyle isn't fun

may as well just play fox, he does the camping thing better

or (god forbid) luigi

 

[The Star King]

not always, even when i was a (below average in skill) Pika main, i lost to above average Link's and a Samus... though Link is annoying to fight, he's fun to use... I even told a Link player to stop using bombs, so yh, you can tell that I hate fighting campy people... unless i'm using Link aswell

If you wanna know; he did stop using bombs, though he said "ok, but not everyone will stop using bombs" or something like that.

And fyi, they were on their best stages... Link on Hyrule (obviously), and Samus on MushKingdom.

 

[asianaussie]

wat at last line

was originally a post about playing as low tiers but it changed midway through

i thought i deleted the line but i cbf'd editing because im not SK and bashing luigi is fun

 

[The Star King]

Do I have to flame you again? Also that post made it sound like you were doing the opposite of bashing him, so there you go

 

[prisonchild]

i must say, it is pretty rewarding to counter your opponents combo with a returning boomerang.

that is my biggest advice to other links, have your boomerang out as much as possible, it's your friend.



my friend put pretty eloquently why link is so annoying to play against the other day: "it's like items off doesn't apply to him"

 

[asianaussie]

a campy fox is objectively more annoying to play against than a campy link

except that when you play link you're expected to win, whereas fox camping is a great strategy you can be unashamed to lose to

[ShadowSmasher98]

yh...

just because i'm born with a mental disease a rookie, you just had to ask...?

 

[Bowser D.X]

Good read so far. I will try to learn as much as I can from this guide.

 

[TranqJim]

Link is powerful especially when used with all his projectiles and dairs as followed

Reverse F-Smash is a beautiful finisher

 

[Ryu_Ken]

I think I should start being a camper with link. I keep losing trying to be too aggressive.

 

[Elyssa Xey Hexen]

I like to think of it as I'm being aggressive, but with the projectiles. Bombs and boomerang to cover options. Force them to act in someway towards me. Then as soon as a hit is made you go into a frenzy of racking up damage whichever way you can make work. If anything, playing link is more satisfying because you don't really win with the zero to death combos. You win by removing options from the opponent and really get a good edgeguard in on them. Occasionally you can land a finisher.

 

[The Star King]

Aggressive Link is good.

 

[SuPeRbOoM]

you just need to make sure you don't get trapped as link; throw all you want.

 

[Battlecow]

Aggressive Link is good.

No he's not

granted, neither is defensive link

 

[RickySSB]

Aggressive Link is good.

 

[asianaussie]

aggressive link is good

jump-in boomerang is amazing against those fools who think they can dance outside your f-air range, srs

 

[Ryu_Ken]

Yeah. Aggressive Link is good.

 

[Bomber7]

Hey guys, mind if I get a little critique? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dSjHbkSmpEg

 

[rpotts]

Oh my god do you live up to your name. Play better opponents, learn to z cancel, short hop, etc etc. watch videos of isai's link.

 

[Bomber7]

Thanks. I try to live up to my name. Fortunately, I have plenty of people who are better than me so I'll be growing quickly!

I'll be looking to share more (and better) vids with you guys as I grow.

 

[The Star King]

Didn't Lionheart used to play online? Probably just someone of the same name actually

 

[Bomber7]

I'm not quite sure. I'm not sure how many of our 64 players play online. I know if anything, we'd rather settle our differences in person than online.

 

[Sangoku]

I think the title of this thread is explicit enough kimimaru.

 

[Kimimaru]

Oh wow, I never saw this. As strange as it sounds, last time I looked my web browser didn't display the other pages at the bottom for some reason. Thanks!

 

[RickySSB]

I don't play campy with Link.
I must be the funniest Link to play.. and Samus.
no

 

[mixa]

How do Links shield break? That Fair - Fair - Dair thing is way too hard.
