which are you?
when playing as TL
i find myself spamming his projectiles then charging in for a quick hit here and there

and if you want me to give you the differences

Project Spammer-Mostly Stays Away From The Opponent And Bombards Them With Constant Projectiles sometimes runs in for a attack or two but mainly spams the bombs arrows and boomerang like a mo-fo

up close and personal-gets right in the opponents face and mainly uses a more melee approach then the spammer' selecting to use various smashs tilts and air moves sometimes uses projectiles but not as much as TL's Basic Moves

I guess I would be a combination, but it REALLY depends on the opponent player and character. If I'm fighting a Marth with a good player, I'll try to rack up damage from a distance before going in to get the kill. But if I'm fighting a noob pit who only wants to stay back and spam arrows, but he is good with the arrows, I'll go in close to fight. It is very situational.

Canada, Ontario. I have a really good connection,
I start out with short hopped double arrows, 2nd one being quick drawn.
Then I thrown a boomerang at them and charge in with my fairs / bairs. If the boomerang hits it stuns them and I can land a fair / chain of bairs.
Sometimes I throw bombs, but I usually get those when I'm off stage just in case I get gimped...
I play a lot like I play my main, Marth. Bair spam with good spacing.
But usually I am always pressing something.
If I'm far away = projectile spam, if they close in on me, arials. There is never a time when I'm just standing there.

you must be both... TL is just a lucky versatile player that has a very good all around game, outstanding with projectiles and in the air

Like most other people, I use both. I rack up damage with my projectiles and smash them of the edge. If they come to close, I hit them away with the standard A attacks.

Well, let's take a look here.

If you want to win, you do whatever it takes. You play every strategy that will help your odds of winning.

In Toon Link's case, his projectiles give him advantages over almost every other character. Versus those characters, if your goal is to win, then you use your projectiles.

I guess what I'm saying is, it depends on your goals. If you want to win, which is the primary goal of any competition...Then, you will use your projectiles to their fullest.

Well, his Bair is good...It's situational I guess. However, I do find Bair is very overrated, and rarely use it.

exactly, it is a situational move. Not something to be used often. Maybe use it out of a grab or something. It is good, but there are better moves. agree 100% with you

that is exactly how i play when i use tl. Pure spam till it is the right situation for up close fighting. He is my second main, the only reason why he isn't my main is because meta knight is way to hard with him. Tl is a counter for snake, and the rest of the crew is fine. Its just meta that is holding me back from maining tl again
