Hello! I've used Zelda as my go-to character since Brawl (actually my first game), but have yet to go to a tourney. Some day, that'll change.

Just wondering why my profile thing doesn't say WiFi. That's the way I play 99% of the time, so could you edit my profile to reflect that?

I have mained (does autocorrect seriously want me to say maimed :laugh:)Zelda since Brawl, which was my intro to the smash series, originally I tried Link, peach, then Zelda.
Brawl actually got me into the legend of Zelda :)
I just naturally took to Zelda at that point, All I ever want in a character is a Teleport and a devastatingly powerful attack that changes the battle when it hits.
I also side main Shiek but i'm nowhere near as good with Shiek as I am Zelda.
I am 16 and I still go to School, every wendsday i play with my friends at gamer's club with smash, however have not gotten that opportunity yet, as Christmas break has intervened.

Edit: I am also am kinda worried about playing vs people, always concerned I am not that good....

About me: I'm just a 14 year old boy who is a video game lover. I'm very competitive with games. I actually broke my first DS by throwing it because I lost a pokemon battle against my brother. (He used Action Replay) I enjoy making friends and
Talking to people. I started using Zelda as my main because one day I saw a Twitch streamer named Cosmo use her in Melee, so I started practicing and actually got really good.

About yourself (Photo optional): I play Zelda because pretty much every hit that lands correctly feels satisfying. Except when you Farore's Wind to the corner of a ledge and teleport in the complete opposite direction of the stage. Or when you Din's Fire slightly off the stage.
those arent fun and are common things i do, especially dins fire

I've stuck with Zelda/Sheik since Melee, and I've chosen Zelda over Sheik in SSB4. Bitter waifufeg until the end. I was briefly competitive in the early Brawl days; don't have time nor the dedication to commit competitively anymore. I also play Sheik, Pit/DPit, Palu, and Ike. Trying to pick up Peach and ZSS.

Anyways, I'm 20, my lifestyle activities include Smash (among other few games), some anime, football, family, fiancee, working out, university, and work. Life has been insane this past year, but I do hope to stay salty about Zeldawful (i.e. be active here) as long as I can.

About yourself: I've been playing smash since Melee first came out. Zelda/Sheik have always been my go-to characters despite not playing a single Zelda game until 2011. Now that Zelda and Sheik are separate characters, I chose to represent the human incarnation of the goddess Hylia herself. It's too bad that Zelda is so awful :(

About yourself: I've been playing Smash casually since Melee, (although I never got into the competitive side) and while I enjoyed Brawl with friends, I didn't get particularly into it by virtue of never owning a Wii. I'm particularly ashamed to say I didn't really pay Zelda any attention in previous Smash games, despite being a massive fan of her series. However in the run up to Smash 4, I was completely immersed in Hyrule Warriors and several main series games which rekindled my love for her as a character. As I've played more with her I've realised she is certainly lacking in tier strength, but that won't deter me (hell, I love me some low tiers; I mained Roy and Y. Link in Melee, for example.) Nice to meet you all, let's make our Princess proud.

About yourself (Photo optional): I've been lurking the smashboards for a long time now (I'm also something of an introvert in the real world). I've been a fan of the Zelda series since I first played the NES original as a kid. Zelda was my secondary in Melee but became my main in Brawl, which carried over to Smash 4 (my secondaries are still up in the air). When I'm not working in distribution I am writing, drawing, playing video games, and hanging with my wife (who is a Rosalina main - fun fact of the day).

Hi, I'm a Zelda player from the Ohio region who strives to play competitively in SSB4. Add my NNID and maybe we could play sometime (please be gentle, I'm not that good ;3) I picked Zelda because she's a character that has enough options to be viable, but bad play can be punished very easily. If I make a bad play, I'll accept the punishment. Learn from your own mistakes, right? btw I'm looking for a mentor if any of you super pro kids are willing to be patient, message me c;

I played Melee at my neighbor's house around a decade ago (it's been that long?) and was immediately drawn to Link and Zelda and am now a huge LoZ fan. I mained Zelda in Melee but dropped her in Brawl for Ike and Lucas (who I almost won tournaments with). Now I'm back with Zelda and ready to prove she's not bottom tier (but maybe not higher than mid). Oh, and I'm new to SmashBoards.

I've played smash since melee and have always used Zelda from melee to smash 4. I'm not the best at smash 4 but I'm always looking for practice to become better, and want to use Zelda to the best extent I can!

I've played Zelda ever since Melee and Brawl were new. I'm still in high school and local tournaments are an hour away so I don't go very often. Looking to get good with Zelda in Smash 4.
