Obviously not a Link main, you're not very good, half the time it doesn't look like you know what you're doing. That video certainly doesn't help your case, the only time you use f-tilt really is to edgeguard and that's just because you didn't feeling like going off the edge for whatever reason, N-air offstage is much more reliable.
if you need horizontal range just jab, it's quicker, and has-follow-ups, in any other case, if you need to cover more area, utilt is the answer, making side-tilt useless.
You said a faster f-tilt would overshadow everything else, comparing it to jab, I was pointing out it has no follow-ups and wouldn't have much power so it definitely wouldn't.
It does a terrible job at stopping approaches cause it's too slow, this is why it should be faster and weaker, so it can actually do the job. And it's certainly a terrible choice for a combo finisher, what would you combo into it with? Boomerang? Fair or F-smash is a better, stronger option. You're just stating theory.

Link doesn't need any more space control, his projectile do that fine, he just needs 1 anti-approach move to offset his good amount of start-up and endlag that he has on almost every single move.
Who would you say is? Haven't seen anyone worth watching really.
