Advice needed!!

I've played Brawl a couple times now, and I've decided that I'm gonna main Toon Link (the whole Toon Link forum cheers). I'm having some trouble facing Wolf and Ike. If you guys have any tips I could use when I'm against them, that would be most appreciated.

The guys at TGP got a video of my Toon Link against my friend Pav's Wolf. Here's the link to it.

We have a few members here who actually own the game, and might be able to help you. However, the rest of us mortals only know Toon Link's fighting style from video's and impressions.

Although, there are a few things I'm certain of from watching the video:
-Too many smashes and especially too many Dair's.
-Not enough Fair, Nair, and especially not enough Bair's.

You are really good, dude!
But my advice is more bombs, boomerang, groundsmashes and mindgames.

You're right, and I was doing them way too much then. The video was from my first day as him. I have definetely lowered the dair to bair, nair, and fair ratio to normal, but I still have problems. Once you guys get a better idea, please post it 4 me. Thanx.


P.S. All the dairs were because I was a falco main in melee, and I'm still getting used to the idea of less dairs.

You use Dair too much, you don't use Bair enough, and you should try not to run at your own bombs, which i think to be the main reason fo your loss.

In all fairness, we're all going to have that problem because we're so used to Melee. Airdodge is the biggest change and it's going to take a while to adjust.

You should probably try to keep a bit more distance, and use your projectiles more. Just Projectile spam them, then rush in to fight in close quarters.

Yeah, definately less DAir.

True. But I personnaly think the new airdodge mechaniques make more sence.

I always found it weird how, through dodging, they became to tired to move :/

I'd say mix up your projectiles more. You can't just use bombs because in the last life in that match the damage on them was really diminishing. Generally mix up your attacks more due to the dimishing dmg.
