Official Link help thread.

[Skler]

How does one defeat Falco or Fox. They evade my projectiles and I'm too slow to hit them. Is there some trick with spacing and rolling?

I'll explain these briefly, because you should really do searches first (we have a character matchup thread). The trick with Falco is platform camping until he comes to you or jumps to a platform to spam you more (in which case you approach). Falco still ***** you up close, but it's better than getting screwed by lasers the entire match.

Fox...yeah. Just play defensively with jabs, CCed dsmashes and whatever else you can think of. If he camps try to approach him with projectiles. Once you get up in his face you had better of hit him with something because Fox ***** Link.

Against both of them play smart and don't make mistakes or you will lose.

Any advice for jiggs? I don't have a video or anything, but I have problems with killing and combo'ing, any tips would be greatly appreciated.

[HiIH]

I demand our chracter matchup thread get bumped.

Wait...

Be right back.

 

[Spife]

I wouldn't have asked if I had known that existed, why isn't that stickied?

 

[BDawgPHD]

Keep in mind against Jiggs that if he does rollout for some reason, arrows stuck in the ground will stop him. other than that, I haven't played a Jiggs with Link that I can remember.

Hey guys remember when this thread was fun.. I think BDawg should come back and get ***** by Sliq over and over again... And i still really want to play Sliq =(

 

[-Darc-]

Against Jiggs. Spam the **** out of projectiles. I hate that **** >_>

I am serious. SPAM THE **** out of them. Nairs are always a safe bet to keep spacing. Of course I don't main Link so.....

 

[HiIH]

BEWARE OF REST! Link's lag is extremely easy to take advatage of with a rest. Against an aggressive Jiggs avoid any laggy moves more so than usual. To stress this, be even MORE cautious than usual on moves like Dair, Uair, and most importantly a spin attack.

I learned this the hard way today = (

 

[Skler]

Darc get back to your own boards! How would you like it if I went on the puff boards and gave advice on beating Link?

Not so funny now is it, punk?

 

[SleepyK]

here's how you beat every character with link:

dress up as skler

 

[Sliq]

Skler beat my Jiggs at Pound 3, and I have come to the conclusion that Link is broken. Link is now banned.

As a Jiggs main I can safely say that Links lag WILL lead to a stock against a strong Jiggs player. It can be followed by an F-Air or B-Air chain, a Rest combo or a N-Air-Rest combo.

 

[KevinM]

Didn't you just see what Sliq said... Link is broken gg

 

[KevinM]

Guys i'm about to double post and censor dodge up in this bitch

 

[HiIH]

So how does Skler dress, so I can be broken too?

 

[KevinM]

He dresses like Link homie

 

[Saucemonster]

Link strats:
- SCRRRRRRRAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHH!!!!

VICTORY!

 

[HiIH]

Aw, that doesn't work, I've tried that for years.
