What do you think Link's best B attack is?

[Leon945]

The b attacks are very useful but which do you think is the best

up B the spin attack useful for power and saving yourself.

B the bow good for long-range attacks

left or right B the boomerang can hit foes and reel them in

down B the bombs powerful but dangerous

i lol'd, the up b is a decent kill move but other than that its worthless

his bombs are like his only useful b move

 

[Leon945]

I meant it was good to get on the stage if 2 jumps don't make it

 

[HeroMystic]

Definitely Link's bombs. It opens a lot of options.

I won't say the Up-b is worthless, but's definitely nowhere near as good as it was in Melee. Like what Archive said, it's a decent/unexpected kill move.

Bombs. I use them more for deception. They can actually kill in this game I have noticed, where in Melee I just used them for damage.

Gale Boomerang? Maybe? The most helpful is hands-down the bombs but I find the boomerang helpful too...

The boomerang is great, a lot of times it saves me from getting hit with s smash or such. I also SH arrows to stop approaches against characters that are hard to hit with zair(Jiggly, Kirby, MK). Overall though, bombs are easily his best special move, opens up a plethora of mind games and can save you from being chaingrabbed to 50%.

 

[Chis]

Bombs, as holding them can stop you getting chain-grabbed. It's still possible to do a bomb jump right?

 

[Onomanic]

I'd say boomerang. I makes for great set ups for jab locks lol. Or bombs. They can be used in so many ways lol.

 

[RawrBoom]

So far, there's no way to bomb jump. Anyways, I would say the boomerang since I use it the most. Took me a while to adjust from the melee boomerang to the gale boomerang though. Plus, if used correctly, you can control your opponent better than you can with bombs.

 

[Alus]

nope not bombs not at all...=P

 

[Gindler]

I'd surely say the bomb (unless it's an earthbounder, then it's the boomerange but everyone else is bombs for sure) I usually use it to bait them into a smash (they airdodge the bomb and I'm doing the link Usmash slidey thing...don't know the exact term) and yeah it's saved my recovery messed up kill moves by changing my direction midway to the blast zone messed up chain grabs. They can do anything pretty much =D

Also, just throwing this out there but I think the bombs might be my favorite move in the game of any character (next to ganon's sparta kick of course)

Yay someone added one of my comments to their sigs!!! ZOMG!

Anyways-
1) Bombs
2) Gale boomerang (close to bombs for use)
3) Arrows (suprisingly buffed from melee-> brawl and Link's Hero Bow looks awesome { thats right pit, Link's bow is cooler imo})
4) Spin attack can be a suprisingly good kill move and comes out fast and on both sides

 

[O.T.L]

Easily bombs

it is... but its more difficult to do it intentionaly in brawl...
