Yessss :)
Thanks so much! All these changes look really helpful, especially the bolded ones.
As for Bair connecting easier, the first hit still has BKB/KBG of 0/100. How exactly did you get it to connect better?

We didn't, that was a mistake on my part interpreting something before we released.

It almost always connects for me so I wouldn't notice a difference anyways >_> lol.

I'm just gonna say that I'm a beautiful amazing designer for coming up with a dash attack that satisfied both IE6 (Who thought 2.6 DA was broken) and Hylian (Who thought it was necessary).

Playing Link vs Hanky's Peach is hard.

Feed me delicious knowledge, Hylian.

I think it's fairly even, you just have to play really solid fundamentally, peach is one of those characters you can't really jank, just focus on spacing well and watch for her dash attack because it can get in on you quite well.

Of the top of my head I remember playing on PS2, FD, Smashville. Stages that seem like they should be enough space, but it's kinda hard.

There's a fair amount of decisionmaking that could be better though. I think those are probably some of the better ones.

So Hylian you said you were going to work on some kind of Link guide to show off some techniques and what not, how's that coming along?

I've been suuuuuper busy man. I just moved into a new house and was in the process of moving for about a month, I'm working a lot and I was at a tournament this weekend and am trying to keep up at least somewhat of an active social life while also finding time to run and work out x.x. I sleep like 5-6 hours a night. I will work on it when I have time, it's something I'm really interested in and I feel like I got better with link recently as well.

Two questions:

1. How do I moonwalk?

2. I've seen Hylian do this a lot, but how do you Zair a bomb forward? I tried doing it myself but just can't seem to space it right.

Short hop, tap Z to drop the bomb, be moving slightly backwards all at the same time, zair.

Also, anybody else catch that reveal of 'Hyrule Warriors'? It's kind of what I've wanted for a long time, to be able to take on an army of monsters in a LoZ title.

I noticed with bomb jumping that if you hit only with the final hit the bomb won't explode.Is there any way to make it explode like that?

Hyrule Warriors looks really fun I hope I can get,but I also want Smash,Zelda wii u,MK8,and probably other games they haven't announced yet...Along with P:M updates 2014 is going to be a great year for gaming.

On topic,I will try to up the final hit of link's up b by like 3-5% and hope that works.

As excited as I am at the thought of taking on hordes of Darknuts, Stalfos, and whatever in the midst of a battle bigger than myself as the Hero of Hyrule, let me put it in the words that Headcrab used:

"Yeah, I just don't see that happpening. It's Hyrule Warriors. Not just a LoZ game developed by Tecmo Koei. It's clearly meant to be a Dynasty Warriors game."

In all honest, it'll probably be *****.
