First Gameplay of Toon Link. VERY PROMISING!

His gameplay looks great.

Does Link fall this fast in SSBB with his Down A attack? That is a HUGE IMPROVEMENT. Old Down A attack was SO easily dodged in SSBM.


He also seems to jump farther.

I HATE the name Toon Link, but I'm so freakin happy that they included him that I don't care. He looks like all his moves are the same as YL. Towards the end he pulled out the windwaker, was that like a taunt, or it is one of his moves?

Dude, he's fast as crap, and all over the place. As I predicted-he's all about air to land transitions, and L-cancelling will probably make him a Brawl GOD! Can't wait to beat you all with him!

I think he looks fantastic, in every sense of the word. I love new movesets, but this is the one exception I wanted, and I got what I wanted. Somehow, Toon Link is the perfect realization of what I wanted from Young Link in Brawl.

Impressions:

Dair is obviously changed. I really like how it rockets down, makes a typically very easy to dodge move much harder to. It has less knockback, but I'll live. I can efficiantly kill with him anyway. His bow has changed, as well. While I loved his fire arrows, I think I'll be just as content with these. Not nearly as stunning or damaging, but much, much quicker, so I'm digging it. His spin attack looks weaker in the spin, but it has pretty impressive knockback. He's much more floaty than before, but I like it. I'm really curious to see how his fully charged spin attack goes. Oh, and I'm very glad he's sporting a traditional boomerang. In TP and SSBB alike, I despise the Gale Boomerang.

All in all? He looks phenomenal. I was planning on maining Snake this time around, but now that Young Link is back, I can't resist. He's AWESOME.

Yea, I actually really like the way hes looking. It's weird considering I hated the idea of him even being in brawl since 2005 e3 now I'm considering maining him lol. It's like rain on your wedding day.

I don't get how everyone is complaining that he's a clone. They wanted to bring back YL, but they needed a new look and a more fresh style, so they bring in Toon Link and slightly alter his moves. Change speed a little, change some knockback power of certain moves, etc. It's not a clone because it's a replacement. Can you not see the difference?

That's like saying I saw a scarf on captain falcon so he's got a slightly new look, but his moves are all the same so he's a Falcon clone. OR it's Falcon with a scarf. As in... OR it's YL, but cel-shaded with slightly altered speed, knockback, a chargeable UP-B, etc. Get the facts straight people.
