Hello Link boards,

I'm Zareidriel. Over in this thread a guy called Assassannerr made a matchup chart, and asked people to help fill it out. It seems like it would be a cool thing to have. With once glance you could have a rough idea of a matchup. It won't be perfect, but for our first go at it in 2015 we're aiming for "somewhat functional."



So here's what I'm going to do. Go to every Character Discussion board, and ask the folks there if they wouldn't mind contributing. To submit one vote, you'll have to fill out one of these:

////////////******
Bowser
Bowser Jr
Captain Falcon
Charizard
Diddy Kong
Donkey Kong
Duck Hunt
Falco
Fox
Mr. Game & Watch
Ganondorf
Greninja
Ike
Jigglypuff
King Dedede
Kirby
Link
Little Mac
Lucario
Luigi
Mario
Dr. Mario
Marth
Lucina
Metaknight
Ness
Olimar
Palutena
Pikachu
Pit & Dark Pit
Peach
Zelda
R.O.B.
Robin
Rosalina
Samus
Sheik
Shulk
Toon Link
Villager
Wario
Wii Fit Trainer
Yoshi
Zero Suit Samus
Megaman
Pacman
Sonic
Ryu
Roy
Mewtwo
Lucas
Brawler
Swordfighter
Gunner
******//////////


Mark each character with a + for a match where Link HAS THE ADVANTAGE
Mark each character with a - for a match where Link HAS THE DISADVANTAGE
Mark each character with a number 0 for a match you feel is very even.

NOTE THAT I AM ONLY TAKING VOTES FROM MEMBERS WITH Link IN THEIR PROFILE BAR. It can be as either "Wii U Main" or "3DS Main". But if Link is in neither one of those slots when I count the votes on Friday, Nov 13, it won't be counted.

(Yes, for the avid democrats out there, that means you can vote for one other character as well.)

Like I said, they won't be perfect, and each board will probably be a little biased toward their own respective character. But the results should be interesting regardless.

If this thing is successful maybe we'll do a revised version in 2016.

Thanks very much for participating! We need as many votes as possible for each character so please submit a ballot!

I'll give it a shot. I'm assuming no customs.

For the record, I think most of these even (0) matchups are either 55:45 or 45:55, but I don't want to give Sonic (who I consider a 45:55 MU for Link, maybe 40:60 if I'm pushing it) a comparable MU to say Fox or Sheik (which may very well be 40:60 or worse for Link). He unfortunately doesn't win many important matchups IMO, although the best character I think he has an advantage on is Lucario.

Um.
Okay, making something like this feels pretty damn pointless this early on. The accuracy of all this will be shaky, at best. Not to mention that the game is still changing due to patches changing things up constantly. I'd be willing to contribute once the game has aged enough and when the game decides to stop changing every 3 months.

Probably not right place for this, but I don't think we lose to Captain Falcon, but we don't beat him either. He gets hit by dthrow upsmash pretty hard (I've had it connect up to 60%, no rage) and we outrange him with projectiles and disjoints. He can retaliate back with really good edgeguards (we can hit him back too but I think Falcon's edgeguards are better since he can spike much easier), juggling, and zone breaking. If the matchup sways in either character's favor its not by much. There's a thread for this somewhere.

I know this place is old, but I just came here to give a very specific two cents of mine.

Samus > Link

She just wins that MU so hard.
