LOL so good
Well when i play vs someone I always try new things I'm not used to. Though in combos, I don't see it work very well.. maybe fair to dacus usmash? idk.. lol.Maybe you're not used to it? Have you spent time in the lab searching for scenarios or just trying to fit it in a bunch of scenarios?
Maybe you could try different perspectives, mr. Kage sir.
Try DACUS from a Side B, the crotchbox it has sends at an amazing angle. That situation presents itself often enough where mixing it up between DACUS or some other techchase option would make it worthwhile to mess around with and actually use.
In addition to what SMK said, using DACUS as a platform techchase is also very good considering you can literally give your opponent less time to react since DACUS is far less telegraphed vs lets say dash attack or running uair, since Ganon's run speed is not too fast and is practically a snail compared to the boost of DACUS.
Pretty much. When not used at the ledge DDD's Dthrow places the thrown target in a rather tough situation: pretty close to him and on the ground. It places the target in a position which they can be tech chased; although, with appropriate DI from the thrown character, DDD can kind of combo from it. I tend to use it as a mixup around higher %'s at the ledge in the place of Fthrow for the purpose of lengthening my follow-up options while sort of neutralizing my opponent's predicted survival DI.
I have trust me....the list is situational. meaning on a certain stage vs certain characters it can be done. My point was it's just Easy for Ike to do it vs pretty much everyone.
You're not playing her right then, she's hella fun, Din setups are hilarious
You can't not have fun playing Zelda, there's just so much crap she can do, I have fun just spamming farore's wind lol
That's the same one. It's poverty because the $7 capture card seems to randomly decide what the quality of the video will be every time.
Plus side-b special fall transition grabs the ledge backwards. So it can be used to edgehog, as well as tech chase and bounce the opponent for an edgehopped dair. Granted to have to be in the right position, but that's not too hard.

I found out how useful B-reverse lasers could be yesterday. Once Melee veterans stop trying out new characters and go back to using Falco, just think of all the cool tricks that will come.
I think it only sweetspot because the startup was so close to the ledge. It acts kind of similar to fox/falco's upb.
Exactly what I've been saying, side-tilt should be sped up a bit to make it actually useful for one thing I think, hookshot should be melee length but nothing can be done about it afaik, Link is definitely nowhere near the spacies and most of the available cast
Because he can turn his up-b and has a decent sized ledge grab box, he probably just went slightly up then turned to be going slightly downward once he got to the edge. Or maybe he just went sideways and his ledge grab box extends farther down than I'm aware. But no he doesn't autosweetspot like in brawl or anything like that.
Ftilt was already sped up. Its endlag iirc, so it's already pretty damn safe.
I know, it needs to be a bit faster, it comes out too slow, there's not a single use for it, any time I think I can use it, it turns out it's too slow, or there's a better more powerful option(Fsmash, Fair, Dair, etc.) I remember Skler saying it needed to be made faster, and one of the Devs just wrote him off saying they already did, without realizing he meant it needs to be even faster.
I'm saying having the side-tilt faster isn't going to make Link broken, not at all, he'll still more than likely be worse than most of the characters, but it would put him up with the rest in terms of viability at the very most
LOL no, do you even play Link at all? F-tilt it has no follow-ups like the jab, Ftilt being faster would be nothing more that a semi-safe GTFawayfromme move, something he doesn't have and something he really needs, he gets eaten alive by every character that's not Bowser or Ganon once they're withing his sword-range because he doesn't have the tools to deal with pressure, and maybe then he could deal with Marth Fairing through all his projectiles and completely outzoning him at sword-range.
Fixed
Because up-b doesn't serve this purpose.
It's not safe, you screw up and you have a charged smash in your face no problem, easy death
I DO know how to play him, VERY well, in fact from what I've seen I've spent the most damn time on Link.
