Dance to express, not impress!
but how much has her game developed? I never see any Zeldas in tourneys. Is she beyond the Din's fire/Usmash spamming ***** that annoyed me at Brawl's release?

She definitely has potential. What's holding her back?

I guess maybe I find her fun because I don't play like that. >.>

She's gotta have more potential than that... :/

She's still fun to me. Played as her since Melee. The fact that not many people play as her is what keeps me going.

If you get bored learn sheik as well, it can only help you. If you get bored again the only thing left is Pokemon Trainer.

I happen to find Zelda insanely fun. She's a spacing mind reading beast and working on her edgeguarding game is really rewarding. It's not easy but everytime I land a spike or have a perfect FW that kills someone I feel rejuvenated. I'll never get tired of Zelda. Plus punishing with LKs is a ton of fun.

Around launch, I played Zelda and Sheik alot. I find them both extremely fun. Sheik appeals to me a little more because it's a little more fun to be aggressive and do stupid stuff offstage. XD

Who would you suggest I watch?

maybe it's cuz I've been playing her since I bought the game...
I've started learning Shiek too. Ftilt lock is just too fun.

I dunno about that, just because those smashes have such wonderful properties that it would be silly to ignore them.... but, then again, you'd just be doing this in friendlies so you could become more familiar with the rest of her movestl... so I agree with that. use ALL of zelda's moves.... if anywhere near 50% of your attacks are din's and smashes, then U R doin' it rong!

is seriously abusing upsmash really that bad? I mean Marths abuse fair, Good Diddys abuse bananas, lucarios abuse AS. Is it really so bad to abuse a good move in your arsenal?

no, but relying on it as a crutch IS bad. Zelda mains aren't as bad at this, but sheik mains who pull out Zelda for a KO spam Usmash and Fsamsh like there's no tommorow. and that's NOT okay. Zelda needs to use the rest of her repetoir.

well I know i use it alot and I dont think i'm a bad zelda by any means. but you guys make it seem like if you use it to rack up damage(which is how i use it), it's an auto bad zelda. It's a good move.

no... that's fine. it's a great move. the problem arises when you use it to a point where you are getting punished for it.
