I have low standards for Zelda after 12 years of suck.

My biggest hope for Zelda is that they know how to not make her bottom tier.

YES! Ganondorf and Zelda have done enough time in bottom tier its time for some else to take their place and move them up to C B or even A tier

She needs powerful approaching air moves and faster specials
And why isn't faroes wind teleport as fast and lagless like mewtwo's teleport
It wouldn't make her broken either
I think they should let her teleport through solid platforms and if up special can't teleport through then she can just fall like it normally does
Ya know
Give her recovery options

As fast as Mewtwo's teleport would be a bit much, I would think...

One thing I'd like Zelda to improve on is the ability for Naryu's Love to be directional. Meaning, she can move slightly forward or backward after inputting the attack. When performed right after running or in the air, it covers more distance. It would really help with her approach game and recovery options.

Hey, my fellow Zelda fans! I'm working on a project that you might have heard of called Project: Thank You Sakurai! (If you haven't heard of it, you should check it out.) and I'm currently doing a poll to determine which characters should be on the virtual card that we're making for him. I would appreciate it if you guys would check it out here and vote for who you like. The only lock for the card for LoZ right now is Link himself, and Zelda (who is really close to breaking into lock territory), Ganondorf, and Toon Link are all also on the poll and need some support. I would really appreciate it if you would take the time to tell me your thoughts :)

I'll be severely disappointed if Zelda doesn't have this as an alt costume:

I hope Skyward Sword Zelda is an alt.
Then we get her old Smash design and her beloved new one that many were clamoring for.

So, guys, I had a dream last night that Zelda had a new F-tilt, and she K.O.'d me with it really hard.
It's like Captain Falcon's F-tilt (roundhouse kick), but angled low only to be a sort of shin kick, so it's close range and medium speed only.
It also had the lightning affect from her B-air/F-air, and it hit HARD!
I mean, I don't know if I hit my leg on my bed railing or what, but dang. I think it should be her new Down Smash. It's already super fast, why not make her kicks like lightning in other ways as well?

May I ask what you were doing that provoked her to kick you like that? :V

I-err-I-n-nothing! I can't remember, all I remember is being on Temple and looking at myself from 3rd person view, and she mis-spaced the first kick. Melee Falcon was off to the right. . . Moonwalking. . .

Looks like there are good chances that someone picks Zelda for the Invitational, will be awesome to finally see more of her in action!

Sheik? Finally that down-b nuisance is gone. :troll:
I do play with Sheik (my top 4 mains are Zelda, Ganondorf, Sheik and Link :awesome:) but yeah, I'm happy to see them separated, even though I was surprised at first.

No transform by mistake = Win. And seriously, how logical it is to transform by mistake? "Oops, I transformed again", it makes no sense! ... Except in Smash Bros :troll:

To be fair, I don't think most moves in smash could logically be done accidentally lol.

Well, the problem is Sheik retaining the Arrows of Light. Not Zelda.
I don't know what Sheik could have other than the light arrows? Maybe an ocarina song that does some cool magical thing? She doesn't show off many abilities in Oot besides harp playing and being really cool. While Zelda's Arrows of Light is probably one of her only moves that is truly her own (besides Phantom).

The main problem with Light arrows on Sheik is the fact we have the same FS twice. But I can understand it still stay true to the character, same goes for Link and Toon Link's moves.

I think even by being Light Arrows, sheik could have something more different. For example, a PK Starstorm like move where multiple arrows fall from the sky. Zelda does this in Hyrule Warriors after all.

It's not a bad final smash by no means, but I feel like Sheik is the same person as Zelda but not the same character. I think she should have something unique, although I have no idea what. And Sakurai doesn't seem to either.

Yeah, more arrows, more fun, but she could use her knife for example... If only Sakurai wasn't against knives.

Stoping time with her harp could also be fun (I always associate Sheik and the Temple of Time. It's a bit of a stretch, but it's unique)

Sheik could use any of the ocarina songs, Bolero of Fire could summon fire, or Song of Storms could summon a giant storm...

Not only she gains a unique weapon, but it's more fanservice as well!

Song of Storms, Saria's Song... Those are attacks now.

Hyrule Warriors is just turning into one long ode to the series and fanbase as a whole, logic be damned.
The makes are being really clever about this. They know how to make people come in to play their game.

Ever since I saw :4zelda: get in SSB I honestly couldn't get behind her as a character. It wasn't until till her debut in Project M that I was able to truly appreciate this character for some reason. Her surprisingly strong magic matched with her range and positioning mechanics I can say that I'm pretty glad to see her be a separate character as well as get an updated move set ( well at least one move ) to boot. Can't wait to try her out in the new installment.

Project M is easily the best iteration of Zelda yet, isn't she top tier?
I'm pretty happy to see Zelda as her own character now but it does make me sad to know that my other part is now gone. :(
On the bright though, no more accidental transformations.
