Yea it's tricky, but cool nevertheless.

I feel like naruto when he first learned the gendenko or whatever it's called.

You run, and press down on the C-stick.

This is the key part.

RIGHT after you hit it down, and I mean RIGHT after, like you have to be super fast, like before Link stars his dash slash animation, you smash up on the control stick while pressing Z.

Once you do it once you'll get the hang of it.
THANKS! This is easily Link's coolest AT!

Yea definitely.

Now all I have to do is play alot so I can figure out how close I should be when I attempt it, how close, etc.

Where you aren't
it's kinda instantly, its gotta be swift, down C then right after hold up and press Z, not to difficult once you get the hang of it, I used to be horrible and never could do it but once you get it down it's second nature

the bomb thing is very easy, just hold A while grabbing your bomb and use the stick, but you charge it this way so if you want to use it right away, just flick it once you start the animation, same goes for after a roll, its not hard at all Unknown, you'll get it

Love the vid and enjoyed every second of your other movies. Would like to play you, could you send me your MSN through a Private Message? I'm from Europe as well. This will probably make me using Link more often!

Link is moving up the tier lists with these moves!
No, xD, all the tricks we've found are pretty cool, but nothing yet gives Link any match changing advantage. Link's not bad. He's just not as good as the others. He's most likely gonna be low tier again no matter what we do.

Link's bombs, Zair, and smashes automatically make him better.

Runs a little faster too. Edge guarding is MUCH better as well, with the gale defense AND the ZAIR edge hogging.

Good guide. Link is one of my six mains, and I found this to be quite helpful. I've only gotten the DAC down though. My Jab cancelling definetely needs work. I still tend to throw out that last A hit every time.

*sigh*.. I'd be really happy if Link would be mid-tier for once.
When I played Melee I didn't even know there was tiers all I knew was Link was awesome. But now when I play Link in Brawl I get discouraged by what everyone says. Atleast let Link be higher low tier in Brawl..

Anyway the first time I saw this video I was really happy and I tried some of the techniques.
I'm looking forward to seeing videos of full matches from you.
