Zelda is good!...but is it her best showing?

Project m 3.02 Zelda is about 100x better. I won't go into detail, but basically EVERY moves' data is far better than ANY Sakurai smash iteration. All of her a moves are great! Not to mention her specials' have way more uses. Though, I DO love the new FW reappear KO-ness.
Don't expect P:M Zelda to stay that way though, just wait till version 3.5 she's slated for HUGE unnecessary nerfs and changes...

PM Zelda is better, but since the full release SSB4 Zelda definitely looks pretty ok (or at least is being played by players better exemplifying her stronger points). Obviously it's a bit early to decide on anything definitively to any degree, but I would be willing to place my money on her climbing out of bottom tier for sure this time around.

Nairo impressed me, but I realize that players like Nairo and Zhime are on whole nother level; it would probably take me a few seasons of dedicated play to get comparably good. Where Zelda falls on average in the tournament scene is more important.

In terms of official Nintendo Smash Bros releases? This is by far the BEST Zelda that's been put out by them. So much better from E3/Demo builds. However as others stated, PM 3.02 Zelda is on a whole other level.
But yes, this Zelda is the best iteration that Nintendo has put out for Smash.

Honestly.
If Zelda had:
-Melee's Fair/Bair
-Brawl's Usmash, Dsmash, Dtilt
-Inescapable Fsmash (I'm alright with it being weakened slightly, since Smash 4's Fmash hits 17% uncharged if all hits connect)
-PM's Din's Fire or, for God's sake, a Din's Fire that doesn't ****ing freefall
-Reduced Nair lag
ALL with her Smash 4 moveset (since Ftilt, Dair, and (situationally, of course) FW are solid).
She'd be easily mid-tier, high mid-tier at the very best.

With Melee kicks alone she would already be a solid mid tier imo. She gets a better spacing game, approaching game, punishing game, options out of dash... Her kicks were absolutely fantastic.

I hate that they make me play a different Zelda each Smash Bros:
-In Melee, it was all about the Fair/Bair hits.
-In Brawl, it was about Usmash, tilts and Dins Fire.
-In PM, it was about trapping with Dins Fire.
-In Smash 4 is mostly short hop Nayru's Love (I think they call it Love Jump?) and kills with Farore's Wind.
But if I had to choose, Smash 4 is my favorite version. At least Im certain she wont be low tier this time.

I don't know what it was about Smash 4 Zelda, but as soon as I started playing her, I instantly fell in love with her new playstyle. She's not as good as some would want, probably including Nairo himself. I use her and beat the higher up tier characters like LM and ZSS in 2 Stock Smashes, with interference from another player sometimes too.
