The Link Boards Tier List

[Wafflez]

NintenJoe, Blu Link and I came up with an idea. Let's rank all of us based on our skill shown in videos, knowledge and such. This is just a rough approximation and it's for fun. It's for the better known Link mains so if you wanna be on here, get some videos up!

Do not take this list super seriously. This list is FOR FUN.
If you do not post regularly or do not have videos, you may be lower on the list because of that.

The criteria for the list is as follows:
1. Tourney placings
2. Videos and skill
3. Knowledge of Link/Contribution to the Link boards


This list will most definitely change over time.

Lol im like low high, well for the record i just recently got second place in two ONLINE tourneys (which i know doesnt matter, but blubba's up their and he's an online link too ) just check out my aib page i wont get my second medal till like tomorrow or something

the only videos i have recently of me are these
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RW8DHU4eNl0&feature=channel_page
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XYwxqexdhVg&feature=channel_page

also you guys forgot monkeyx4, he's got a crazy link

 

[sasook]

Blubba uses a green Link, just to let you know.

w00t for mid! lol

 

[ArdeS]

This thread is pretty cool. :]
Put me down for Dark Link though.

How can I work my way up?

 

[SSBKNIGHT]

I think Izaw should have been higher then Deva.

 

[Wafflez]

I've updated the colors. If you want to move up, post some videos of yourself! Show that you're better than you've been shown.

I love how no one comments on my position on the list. :3

 

[ArdeS]

I love how no one comments on my position on the list. :3

What about it? Seems right to me.







I'd personally put Legan for #1, with Deva and Izaw tied for #2, and Arkive for 4th to follow them up. just my opinion

 

[lilmister]

Haha this is a nice idea!
And I made it in the list (low tier ftw!) lulz
But can you make me a Red Link...coz that's what I'm pretty much using now
I'll have some videos up soon so hopefully that'll move me up :]

 

[Wafflez]

Updated, colors added. Still looking for more colors by Youtubing your names and then jotting down the colors. (Lol)

 

[sasook]

Yeah switch me to green please.

Also, my opinion for top: the one listed seems right.

 

[Wafflez]

Yeah switch me to green please.

Also, my opinion for top: the one listed seems right.

Sasook, you're already green on that list. Lol.

 

[sasook]

Oh right. rofl wow now I feel stupid.

 

[ArdeS]

From what I've seen from Deva and Legan, I think Legan is slightly better. His style just seems faster and more technical. But yeah, Deva definitely has the wits to outplay his opponents though, even if they are more technical. And I see Izaw as a mix of Legan & Deva's styles which is good, if that makes any sense.

And hmmm. A Lavender & Red Link need to step it up and get to top tier.

 

[sasook]

It's up for grabs, that top position. Legan seems to have more technical skill, Deva has a better tourney record. Take your pick.

 

[Wafflez]

Another update! Awards for certain positions held around the boards. They're like Achievements on Xbox360:

Short, snappy and totally pointless, but nice to have.

 

[sasook]

yay for bombsliding!! ^_^

Most helpful? *is humbled*

I don't think I deserve that, I just like commenting XD. But thanks Wafflez!

 

[Wafflez]

My award is better.

None of you can possibly take the title of "Most terrible Link of all time" away from me! Muahahaha!

 

[sasook]

I think we should add this:

Funniest: Wafflez

 

[ShinTwist ScreamPaste]

I use Blue Link Also, YAY FOR NOT QUITE BOTTOM. Wafflez should be higher on account of I haven't actually done anything of note here

 

[ShinTwist ScreamPaste]

My award is better.

I demand Wifi dittoe,s if I lose, I'm worse.

 

[Wafflez]

I know I should be higher.

But I'm not going to change it till later.

 

[Onomanic]

Nice.

Top of mid. :D Just like on AIM.... XD

Edit: sasook and NintenJoe need to be higher :/

Edit2:

NintenJoe, blu link, and I came up with an idea.

Fixed. I said it first on AIM D:

 

[sasook]

Edit: sasook and NintenJoe need to be higher :/

Joe does, not me XD.

 

[ShinTwist ScreamPaste]

I know I should be higher.

But I'm not going to change it till later.

In srsness. Wifi dittoes? The only people on the Link boards I've played against are LEgan (who curb stomped me o and Zezima. (Who randomly added me to msn xD)

 

[Wafflez]

Sure thing, but not today. It's kind of late and I should really start on my AP World homework.

But I'm not going to.

Maybe Friday or Wednesday I can.

Ah I remember that class. Good times, good times....

Not really, the reading every night sucked. But my teacher was pretty chill.

@Shin - Wifi dittos don't prove anything, just so you know.

 

[Popertop]

Go ahead and slap me on the bottom o' that ther list.
You can move me around after I get a vid or two.

If they had an Epic Tourney, I imagine Link coming out on Top, with Bowser/DK in a close second.

 

[Onomanic]

sasook, you're pretty good, I think you deserve to be higher. And Wafflez, you're probably mid. Around there. And I enjoy my spot at top of mid. :D And look at that, both players in top of mid are from NJ. NJ=Good Link players?

Peace.

 

[sasook]

sasook, you're pretty good, I think you deserve to be higher.

Thanks blu link, but really I feel like my placement is quite accurate.

And look at that, both players in top of mid are from NJ. NJ=Good Link players?

NJ = Good players
Midwest = amazing players
Washington state = beast players (Deva Wafflez)

 

[ShinTwist ScreamPaste]

Oh, I know. They're fun though, and they prove a little bit.. Like, They can show you're not a SD crazy nutter with no idea how to recover o_o; Mostly I just want to play a few people and actually *be* part of the Link community >_> It's my cry ot fit in! D=

 

[sasook]

Well lol, Wifi can cause lucky kills because of input lag causing horrid DI. I only play wifi due to my lack of smash in my town, and I've seen plenty of unnecessary SDs.

 

[Wafflez]

*Scoots Sasook and NintenJoe up a bit*

I refuse to remove myself from the bottom of the list until Wednesday. Just to see what people think of me being the worst Link main.

 

[Popertop]

But your story is too epic for you to be bottom.


wah wah WAAAAAAHHHH

*cries unitl wafflez is top tier*

 

[sasook]

I know Chris T. is new, but I was pretty impressed with him. Methinks he should be top of low.

 

[ShinTwist ScreamPaste]

Well lol, Wifi can cause lucky kills because of input lag causing horrid DI. I only play wifi due to my lack of smash in my town, and I've seen plenty of unnecessary SDs.

Lol, airdodging offstage is almost certain death with too much lag o: I get green connections with most people though.. so it isn't too bad. =D

 

[sasook]

airdodging? welll, you can zair out of an airdodge....but unless avoiding an attack, how would airdodging cause an SD?

And yeah, I usually get yellow-green connections, but the lag is still there (messes up mah bombslides )

I play against alot of Falco and Diddy that try to gimp me, but Air dodging seems to do more harm than good... (on laggish wifi)

Edit; I just realised I jacked Wafflez thread, MY BAD. o: apologies and such, people can leave me messages on my profile if they like. /leaves

 

[sasook]

Ahh, you probably need to save that second jump more often than, if that's the case. I don't use the second jump until right before I use the upb.

Have you even seen "terywj's" Link play?

Lol, not until now. NintenJoe told me to put him where he is, so I'll adjust it accordingly. Thank you for bringing this to my attention.

EDIT: Thanks to Ray Kalm's correction, many people have been scooted up a place.
