Glad he is similar to how he was in Brawl. Great character.
(I think Ganondorf will be back.)

His moves are all the same in appearance, but they act different.

-Back Air does a lot of damage but doesn't combo.
-Forward Air KO's super easy before stale moves negation and comes out quicker. It also has lagless landing.
-Neutral air is the same except it combos like the Back Air in Brawl, lol. Also it has lagless landing.
-Up air KO's before stale moves negation but after it said move sucks.
-Down air spikes at the beginning.
-Z-air goes farther and in general is more effective. It has lagless landing. Please, learn to use this move.
-Forward smash KO's earlier.
-Missed grabs don't have as much lag.
-The boomerang is literally Smash 64 Link's boomerang.
-Arrows start out firing farther. However, quickdrawing isn't possible.

What's the difference between brawls and 64's version of toon links boomerang?

Link in Smash 64's Boomerang has a ton of hitstun to where you can follow up with nearly any move.

Toon Link's Brawl boomerang has good hitstun for Brawl, but not that much generally speaking.

I hope Link and Toon Link have at least one different move from each other.

They do. They have different dash attacks, up-smash, front-air, back-air, neutral-air, back-throw and front-throw and that's as far as I can recall.

Toon Link may be similar to Link but he's certainly no Lucina.....

Toon Link seems like more my play style this time around in Smash, I mained him in Brawl but now he seems to really fit me, with his air grab improving and all... I'm still maining Lucina though...

I'm hoping zair > fair could be a thing for reliable kills with fair coming out faster. That will probably be the first thing i test with Tink :3

Of all the returning characters, Toon Link seems to have changed the least. And that's fine.

The biggest change seems to be that you cannot bounce with Dair anymore. That might make the move more
punishable at low percents.

Well damn, now I am excited, since if I am interpreting that correctly, that's a buff isn't it.
