What is the "Proper" Way to Play Link?

[TheClamFace]

I've seen a lot people say and try to play Link as a zoner, but tbh I'm not sure if that's right. His fastest ground move is his jab at frame 6/7 and his fastest air move is his nair at frame 7, which when combined with his 7 frame jumpsquat means that's 14 frames to do a nair. So if his zone gets broken he doesn't have any "get off me" options against characters with faster moves and his poor speed can make it hard to retreat. In my opinion he should be played more aggressively to take advantage of his bomb setups and zair as to lower the chance of being cornered. Plus, he has a decent combo game and can be played well at midrange due to his range and projectile game. What do you think? It'd be nice to hear others' opinions.

Howzabout you take a look at our rules thread first.

The Metagame thread has plenty of useful quotes on how to play Link effectively. See the second post http://smashboards.com/threads/link...-can-be-found-in-the-op.379659/#post-17944131

Also, discussion of this type should go in the metagame thread for future reference.
