Ahh, to have a Switch to play Smash... soon. I’m hoping the Zelda discourse hasn’t been too silly during the past month Smash has been out. I’m still feeling pretty excited to try her out!

Let me be the one to inject a little positive outlook in here with this gif from a Zelda discord I joined recently: https://imgur.com/qfsVfpu Utilt is clean as heck. Also that DEEP Phantom gimp after running across the stage was definitely very good. Edit Bonus...

I’m just happy we got to see Zelda in full cinematic HD. Girl is looking -good- in that haut couture cutscene aesthetic!

Raykushi did a nice talk about his impressions of Zelda after 50+ games of dedicated playing: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tI2NMxpymFk Here’s a summary: - Our Jab is similar to Palutena’s in terms of utility now though not as ridiculous follow ups. Jab1 is actually surprisingly low...

I think Usmash in more of an anti air than Brawl’s- the hitboxes seem shifted more upward for a bigger disjoint! It seems to have similar kill power like in Smash 4 as well. However it looks like it struggles to hit grounded opponents, plus as always, the multihut component is somewhat janky...

I am gonna get back to you Freelance in a response but first a nice Zelda video: Bonren Zelda vs Elegant Luigi https://youtu.be/13T1jAWs6zc Early kills galore. Very delicious tbh. Even with her obvious weaknesses showing here, with the lack of coverage for awkward angles and lack of options...

(I promised myself to not post too much more, but the Zelda fire in me is burning!) There’s a difference between saying “You’ll be struggling as a character so be prepared to fight a fair share of uphill battles” vs “she’s a dumpster fire, don’t bother”. One acknowledges her weaknesses, but...

I don’t dislike you Kuro! We had some good times back in the day. But I really don’t have the patience or energy to discuss through this sort of mentality these days. Aside from a full on miracle on Zelda’s character and someone amazing playing her (we’re talking getting to top 8 or something)...

Banshee #1, I appreciate the numbers and frame data work you put in for the community and you obviously put in a lot of work for even Zelda despite your distaste for her. But I honestly don’t know what you’re doing here. A bunch of people here actually. Literally people who can’t stop talking...

“Wow! Smash 5 is coming out! Zelda’s got that young fresh look on her, the game is changing a decent amount, she’s got some cool stuff happening- that’s all super fun and cool!” “I guess I’ll check the Zelda Smash Boards for some info and-“ Sees the typical, soul sucking, eye roll into...

I don't really care if I get infracted for this. Some truth tea needs to be sipped right about now. Not even 24 hours after Trump's election. These are just the thinnest skim of the surface. Ya'll "girls" can pretend and rationalize Trump all you want - but all of that is irrelevant when this...

I watched some of PurpleGuy's Zelda recently, particularly this one hilariously delicious match: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NAnqnsBaECA Loving the Utilts > rising Nair > upward angled Ftilt combo on Falcon though (A cool 48%, yesss). I really appreciate the work he's put into Zelda...

Blergh, I did horrible today in Smash. Kind of disappointing. Gotta just get better I guess!

Man, I have learned to really not like defensive Toon Links. It can be frustrating when they camp the edge when you're at kill %.
