I've got some new vids of my Link, just a few friendly matches against some friends of mine. Please watch at least two before commenting, as I make a couple really stupid mistakes in some vids that I don't make in others. The second one, against Lucas, is really frustrating because I did a couple nice things, but i also killed myself twice in really stupid ways.

good matches against DDD. nice use of projectiles. just watch when using spin attack on the ground. i saw you use that when you were standing next to DDD it's easily punishable. and i noticed that you killed yourself due to the fastfall fair. i guess you were trying to jump up and fair to get him away from the edge? but really good job.

I sign onto SWF and find the moderation tornado has blown in once again. I don't know if they're actively TRYING to kill the entire Link community, but I'm like... 3 seconds away from quitting SWF and probably competitive smashing altogether. -_-

Ah, it's not their fault I guess... they're just doing their jobs. I'm just a bit bitter about all the drama taking place lately.


Onto the critiquing:
I like your use of projectiles. It seems adequately used except for a few untimely bomb pulls. I don't see a whole lot of Dsmash ot Usmash though, and you should try a few more things OoS.
I also didn't notice a whole lot of SHed aerials, and you DAC a tad too often. SHFF Nair, SH Fair and SH Bair are incredibly useful moves to master. Also, try to dash attack less, it seemed very predictable at times and I can guarentee you that you'll get punished for doing so.

Keep working on it, but your Link is coming along pretty nicely.

yeah, I killed myself a lot in those matches. really lame. More d-smashes and up-smashes, check. In what situations should I usually use them? I really should try and SH arial more, the SHFF nair is already really useful. and thanks, Linkforce. but it was actually three times. ;)
