Hey Iron Man.
I just checked out the completed Zair section and it is Epic!!! (just like your name)

Lol at Martha. I mean what does he (she) expect, he (she) wears a tiara for goodness sake!

I can't wait for the Nair section, keep up the great work!

Will you have youtube vids on some of these combo's so people can see how they look like? I'm not understanding the VG combo well i am but i don't think i'm doing it right.

OK Iron there's one thing you need to learn...

It's called the 'comma'.

Have a bomb, air dodge, upon landing press A, then throw the bomb. Finally, hyphen smash!

Jump, airdodge and press A or attack or whatever it is

If you want to see VG combo, go to his Combo video, 'Nostalgia'

You can tell someone is new to the TL boards if they're obsessed with finding out what the VietG combo is. xD

lol I am glad to have named it.

It's fun knowing what it is while people stand in ignorance

Well Alzi how are you not sure you're doing it right? Is it not linking up like you expected?
Remember you should use zair at the very bottom of your jump to autocancel and lead into bomb.

So grab bomb > airdodge > when landing press A?

You said zair so after i press the A he will zair or do i actually press my Zair button then press A then throw the bomb then hyphen smash?

You air dodge and hold that button down, then press A. It's a more efficient way of zairing after air dodging.

Alzi Press A when the chain would reach its maximum length.

You don't need to press Z at all to Zair. I know that seems strange because it's zair.

But anyways, zair is: SH, airdodge immediately, then A near the ground so that it autocancels.
When you are on the ground throw the bomb and follow up with Up smash

nice... zair I'm pretty sure is only 4-5 damage...
sad face... but it is used really well as a approach move.

Zair does 4 damage. But it combos, pokes, has a lot of uses. Beware getting predictable with it or mispacing can lead to shield grabs. And that's bad. Especially against DDD lulz. Irjon- Add tether bombing I didnt see it anywhere.

Tetherbombing- move first done by santi lol. And now spammed by Sheikant. Throw a bomb and zair with good timing all in one short hop. Great for pressuring.

take that message off the top that says "I won't finish this today..." Looks awkward at this point. Keep the "It's a work in progress" part though.

I can confirm Santi's drink increases your power level by 9001.

It tasted good too. =)

meh, it's known information, but I'd like to mention it since I do this quite a bit with alot of success.

SHFairs are very nice mindgames if one's not predictable with it, there have been many moments where someone would drop their shield expecting to punish the SHFair but is met with a quick Nair or Bair in the face.

once again known information, might be a useful add, idk just thought I'd throw something in there.

Great read though.

@Iron: I'm gonna give you a review of what (so far) you have done wrong. If I don't say something then that means I believe you did it well. Don't take any of this personally but take it all into consideration.
·First of all, you misspelled "partially".
·Second, you credited TLMS for pointing out that you missed DSmash . . . THAT WAS MEEEEEE!
·Third, in your reasons for why to play him you forgot to mention that he's a playa.
·Fourth (I just noticed this), you said, in your "pros and cons" section, that Toon Link has "Versatile recovery options".
·4.5, some cons are debatable >_>
·Fifth, this has been bugging me for a while but, that "refrain" in the Usmash section; It's gotta go. Sorry but it's too confusing (both because it's a positive where all those other words are negative, and because (even if you added "from" after it, it still wouldn't make grammatical sense)
·Sixth, numerous title inconsistencies (zomg! get ready for a list within a list!):
1)​
USMASH/ UP SMASH!!
Should be
USMASH/ Up Smash!!
2)​
UAIR/Up Aerial!
Should have two exclamations.
3)​
FSMASH/FORWARD SMASH!!
(Same as #1)
4)​
FAIR/Forward Aerial
(Same as #2)
5)​
Down Smash/DSMASH
Reverse those two(Same as #4)
6)​
NAIR/Neutral Aerial!!!!!!
NOTHING GETS MOAR EXCLAMATIONS THAN ZAIR, BAKA!!!
·Seventh, Down Smash should be directly below Forward Smash so that all the smashes are grouped.
·Eighth, Under the Zair section, you forgot to put all the spaces in between the words in the title for the "little big advice" part.

Everything else from there is purely superficial (more colors/ color-coded sections; greater self control in regards to bold, size, etc. (try messing around with different fonts instead); another etc.)

Other than that, GREAT JOB!!!

P.S. I want minor credit for spell/grammar check if nothing else.

:X... sorry my b XD
·Third, in your reasons for why to play him you forgot to mention that he's a playa.
Right......
·Fourth (I just noticed this), you said, in your "pros and cons" section, that Toon Link has "Versatile recovery options".
...your point? He does they are versitiale right? Zair or Upb...well I just put multiple...wait I'll think of something lol.
·4.5, some cons are debatable >_>
then by all means debate them :D
I'll gladly see your side

·Fifth, this has been bugging me for a while but, that "refrain" in the Usmash section; It's gotta go. Sorry but it's too confusing (both because it's a positive where all those other words are negative, and because (even if you added "from" after it, it still wouldn't make grammatical sense)
Hmm I check that out thanx

I like the inconsistencies did it on purpose :)
·Seventh, Down Smash should be directly below Forward Smash so that all the smashes are grouped.
na they are in the order of kill ability basically :)
·Eighth, Under the Zair section, you forgot to put all the spaces in between the words in the title for the "little big advice" part.
oh thanx man
Everything else from there is purely superficial (more colors/ color-coded sections; greater self control in regards to bold, size, etc. (try messing around with different fonts instead); another etc.)
yea I'mma edit colors and stuff when I finish it or nearly not just yet :)
Other than that, GREAT JOB!!!

P.S. I want minor credit for spell/grammar check if nothing else.
maybe ;D
Yea nice thoughts on the fair. Thanx again Moth.
And everyone else for your support.
:D

I said that his recovery options aren't versatile because, even though most characters don't have more than two, Toon Link's have an almost unchangeable path.

Zair is a fairly safe recovery but only if you're in range. This limits it's uses especially since he can't use it after his up-b.
TL;DR: Toon link won't be in range of the ledge often enough for it to be useful.

His other option is his up-b. Although TL can decide, for the most part, which upward direction/angle he wants it to go, once he starts out his control over that path is severely limited.
TL;DR: Toon Link's up-b has terrible DI.
Because of this, Toon's up-b is very predictable so it can be easily gimped unless you sweet-spot the ledge from under the stage on a stage with a ledge like FD.

TL;DR: PREDICTABLE

iRjOn I really like your guide man, it's good to have everything in one place. Be sure to discuss some AT's and tricks after you have done his moves!
Oh and you might want to add that Nair is a possible ender for after a Bair string, and a possible setup for a Bair string if you hit with the back side of it.
Keep it up!
