Toon Link is a clone. And it's awesome.

I've thrown my opinion about this around in several paragraphs in many different places, so I'm not going to bother right now. Quite simply, this is a thread for those who agree, for those who have seen his gameplay video, and would have Young Link no other way.

I am GLAD he didn't get a new moveset, but are there people who agree? Are there people who are as mind blowingly excited to play as him as I?

I would have preferred him to have a different moveset due to being from a different game in the series, but meh, what can you do, it's clone-city all over again anyway so might aswell make them cell-shaded clones for some novelty

Well, the 'normal' Link was changed significantly, so I guess it's another Mario/ Luigi, Ness/ Lucas, Fox/ Falco scenario. Well, not really as all of those characters have far larger differences between themselves than Toon Link does, but... Eh... Hey, he's cel-shaded!

Though I could've done with a Deku Leaf attack, though his FS could always be unique with the Wind Waker.

I personally think it's okay to have a few clones, which is why I like this game so much, I mean so far I've seen 4 semi clones (luigi, gannondorf, lucas, and falco) and then one actual clone (toon link)

frankly I'm happy that toon link got in. People may be upset about him being a clone, but I look at it this way

1) Take Young Link
2) Improve him slightly
3) ???
4) Profit!

Looks like I can take my secondary from melee and maybe turn him into my main in brawl.

I don't mind him being a clone, but now he's in, I would've prefered him to have Deku Leaf and the likes. I always prefernon-clones over clones.

He really had such potential for a great moveset, now we have a cuter Young Link...=\

I may think of playing him. I've always liked Linl's move set. He was just always a tad too slow for me. I usually like fast characters ( apart from my main, Zelda)

Toon Link is essentially a faster Link, with faster attacks. I like it.

He's not WW Link. It's a disgrace he has the Wind Waker for a taunt.

BTW: He's not cel-shaded in Brawl. Just an FYI.

Since I have come to accept the final roster, I do not mind seeing him in Brawl. His stage looks rather neat, not to mention the fact that he will FINALLY help put all those Twilight Princess vs. Wind Waker arguments to rest...

There ARE some differences in combat.

I've noticed in videos that his sword plant(down a), for example, actually propels him downwards, quite a different attack from Link's.

Also I've seen him perform more spinning slashes for his regular attacks.
