Roy is sooper easy to combo on stages with high or no platforms
Peach really isn't that hard if you're not new to the matchup
I don't think either of these characters are really challenging as tink. Sheik is way harder for instance.

I feel like Falcon can literally just out-run any of your projectiles. I'm still new, so I may be wrong, but anyone who can close really quickly and bait-out your projectiles pretty much is a pain in the ass -- for me, anyway. Falcon, Fox, Shiek. Marth's reach and quickness is a bit of a *****, too, but I feel he's manageable and I personally just need to figure him out. Can anyone corroborate that?
Marth and Sheik are fine because they stay grounded and you can choke out their space. Falcon has the threat of a respectful aerial game, amazing aerial mobility and amazing platform movement. He is far more volatile, harder to cut off with boomerang and it's much harder to land a bomb hitconfirm on him. Fox is a similar case but also has the ability to camp with lasers and reflect projectiles.

I would say Marth, Falcon, Fox, Roy, maybe Sheik and Falco can all give Toon a tricky time. Not to say they are bad matchups, but I think they are his hardest.
With Marth it really does seem you need to play a campy game because he outspaces us so efficiently. Falcon is hard as **** to camp against and I end up just going pretty aggressive in this MU. In CO we have a player named John (literally the one the term is named after. He moved here lol) who plays falcon and he has made me very afraid of Falcon's combo potential on Toon. Last tourney he combod 4 knees on me to take my stock :O
A poorly timed rang throw means getting kneed in this MU and Falcon has a really good jab and grab game to exploit being right in our face. Buuut we combo him so hard

Sheik can reaction-0-death you with tech-chase grabbing because of how slow our techroll is

Yeah.
Essentialy the Sheik matchup is an ICs matchup on steroids. Getting grabbed by a coked-up superfast ninja is d00m.

I haven't heard much about the Lucario matchup. What makes it so bad?

I've never fought an insane wolf but I've never lost to one either ; he's just so ridiculously easy to juggle and Tink is one of the best jugglers in the game. idk man ; get a grab, take his stock. The MU is even if anything. Same goes for Falcon, though Falcon obliterates Toon Link if he gets something started. Sooper glass canon in both ways.
Lucario can't say, need more MU experience before I can say but it looks like Lucario can't do much if you run the whole game.
Fox I agree more with, though I don't think it's the worst matchup.

Against an Olimar who knows what they are doing. None of your projectiles will meet their target. Arguably a better projectile game than Tink as Olimar's projectiles come out faster at a steadier pace. Olimar players tend to be constantly (short)hopping for the pikmin throw range, that added to Tinks lack of vertical priority, plus the constant meet shields from the Pikmin, and a slippery Olimar, You will be overwhelmed fairly easily.
Also Olimar has a slightly better recovery than Tink.
I never had too much a problem with Roy.
