There is a spacing game with Spin against Marth onstage where you can play between hitting him, and Link's early sweetspot (before the last slash). Plus, you can always tech. Fox cannot stop Link from snapping to the ledge with hookshot by Firefox stalling. Link can sneak in and take ledge...

I'd like to formally state that the spot labeled "Stro" should be replaced with "The natural order of the universe."

Some stupid grab stuff! This is mostly for fun, but edge cases matter. On the Mountain transformation of Pokemon Stadium: F throw toward the slanted platform. Since Link's standing (or jump canceled) grab works up slopes, you can get an easy tech-chase re-grab. Link's dash-grab goes through...

Something else you should consider is that Link beats ICs, so it gives you something for the ditto (assuming you don't like the ditto). I learned from a (now retired) Peach and the matchup flows as SAUS said. I'm confused by the people saying that think Link can't recover. With 3 projectlies...

Edgeguarding Link is nearly impossible without some level of reading. Get an idea how he uses his hookshot, and try to hold the ledge while Link hangs. Then, you can bair or shine bair when does the flip. In neutral you want to stop Link from getting bombs. Bomb OoS is great against lasers...

Thanks!

Stro + Asylum won PM Doubles. Mask + Ringworm took second.

Thanks! I made the appropriate edits.

Bomb jumping is dependent on the following: 1: Stale moves 2: Which hitbox hits the bomb 3: Link's position relative to the explosion 4: DI and SDI 1: Stale moves in Melee is a list that holds at most 10 attacks. For each appearance on the list, a move deals less damage. A move is added...

I've broken a bunch of shields. Vanz's Sheik, a bunch of Peaches, Vino's Fox (poor kid didn't know what hit him). Double fsmash is the super star, but you have to wear the shield down a good bit first, and you need to make your opponent feel like staying in shield is a good option. Having a...

Arrows stop turnips while in the ground, so sticking one on the ledge while recovering against Peach can both defend you from the turnip and give you the turnip. (You'll get an easy catch since it bounces right above the ledge.) I got arrow>grab once. I've gotten the reset with it, but mostly...

I want to spend unreasonable amounts of time playing children's video games with you again.

I've been avoiding spin as much as possible and I've been hitting bomb jumps way more often. For my play-style, if I spin 4 times in a stock, I probably can't bomb jump. Keeping track of just your spins will give you a good approximation of how likely you will break the bomb. I've also almost...

Save that for when I SD>bomb set>Uair. ....in 2017 or so when my fingers can do that.

Hello King's of evil. Although it is my duty to depose you, I suppose I can lend a hand in the Link matchup. (I main Link and my Ganon isn't too shabby.) Link/Ganon is an even matchup. Both characters can eliminate some of the other's fundamentals. Link's grab outspaces all of Ganon aerials...
