heres a wifi match between me and my friend

I know one thing I need to work on is my spacing and knowing my range, I had a lot of missed f-smashes in there. And idk about projectiles, I don't use them all that much cause I find projectile spamming really boring buy maybe I should be using them more too. But anyway, please give me some constructive criticism. I'll try to get more matches up.
And I can't believe that the dair off of the shy guy actually worked in the beginning of the vid
In daft punk's words, I want to be made "Harder, Better, Stronger and Faster"

Are you talking about that video with the hands that have words written on them that go along with the song? That video is hilarious.
Anyway, you Forward WAY too much. The problem is, they work against n00bs. But try and stray away from spamming it, as higher level of play, TL's Fsmash....really isn't that great.
Otherwise, nice TL.

You say you need help on spacing and projectiles, but really, neither are compatible with your current style of play. I really don't think you're as bad as you think you are, because you already have RARing down, and well as control over your air game. However, Link is a really bad opponent if you want to see what you need work on, considering that he's basically just a slower version of TL. Against him, you won't need much projectile usage, while they are pretty much required against Toon Link's more difficult match-ups.
Try playing against a Wolf or Olimar, where close combat won't always work. I've found that the boomerang is your best friend, as well as bombs. If you can't SHDA, arrows aren't really effective in most cases.

yea I'll get up some videos on better opponents and different characters
I've been working on using projectiles more and switched y to special so I can SHDA consistently finally

This is what I liked
-dair platform stall( I saw you do it twice both where nicely timed)
- dair comboing of shy guy(made a great mind game)
-nair to ko guy of left side(following kill was nice)
-RARing you got down
-The music lol
This is what needs help
-lack of projectiles ( it helps diversify your matches and are nessecary against some opp ex. Ike)
-F-Smash way to much( I know its a Ko move but if learned anything from that famous diminishing return vid, is that You dont want to spam those)
-And to an extent, the opponent, face a person like (as cooper said) wolf or olimar to see how you fair with them

Use more projectiles. You don't have to camp, just use a SHDA and boomerang then charge right in to take advantage of your stunned opponent, who doesn't have an opportunity to attack you.
Also use shield grab. (Press A while shielding) to get your opponent after you block their attack.
Another thing to mention, you were always b-airing Link while he was at high percentage. Bair is good for juggling, but to finish the opponent off you want fair or uair. Smashes on the ground, obviously.

You need to use loads more projectiles. I tend to do most of my combo set ups with a sh-brang-diagdown, (lol) due to the small amount of stun time it has. Also get on the shda they make it hard for your opp to get close to you without jumping high, which can lead to RARing for you.

nice bair combo at 1:15. I'd say use chain spanks (aerial claw shot) if you need to poke them, if you miss your first smash don't do the 2nd one, and try to use projectiles. If you think it's boring just throw an angled boomerang or bomb into some of your combos rather than camping. bombs are basically another aerial attack and TL can shoot 2 arrows in 1 SH though I can't do it.

what's RAR stand for?

RAR is reverse aerial rush, its when you run then change directions and jump so you can do your back aerial
thanks for all the advice guys, I changed my toon link game by using a lot more projectiles now that I can SHDA consistently and I've seen a lot of good results
