I was told they did. And it seriously should be banned. But ether way tournies around here bann that nonsense.
Yes it is true. I think You dont know about Both DDD and Zelda as well as how that match up goes. And DDD can not force an approach on Zelda. What makes you think he can?
ftilt and waddles. the fact that he
can use ftilt really messes with what zelda can and can't do. if he is in ftilt range you can't attack anymore because he can punish you with ftilt. Zelda has to either leave ftilt range or get close if she wants to do something and since zelda is so slow that is rarely something to be afraid of.
waddles are similar they are safe to throw out at medium->long range in this match up again citing zelda's "meh" projectile and her movement speeds. once on stage their attacks and placement again force actions.
D3 has better defensive options than zelda he can sheild grab improperly spaced fsmashes far easilr than the rest of the cast and has bair OOS.
Zelda does have some hip tools in her dtilt and perfect spaced fsmash, usmash and dash attack as anti airs, but all that considered she just barely beats out D3's ground options if at all. Even with fresh moves she can't kill d3 till high percents 130 and that suck because her best kill moves are also her best spacing tools and stuff so it's rare they'll every really be fresh.
if zelda is coming in from the air or if it's and air to air bout d3 will always win hands down. he out ranges her in every situation. If zelda is ever hit off stage she going to have it rough. he upB has years of start up time which makes for easy to time bairs, and tons of ending lag which means if she is getting back on stage she may very well be meeting one of D3's smashes or even a quick attack like utilt which also kills zelda pertty early.
Zelda has the same problems in this match up she does in every one.
Zelda is a character you can't just rush into. I can beat anyone who is going to mindlessly approach me because of zelda's great defensive options. Since D3's whole meta game has always been about that; rushing in and intimidating people with grabs or rar bair, and forcing reactions it's no wonder zelda's multi hit fsmash is so powerful, if you camp zelda and wait for her to do stuff it's hard to not see why she is bad. She has about as many answers to camp and wall games as gdorf.
Zelda is my secondary BTW. I main sheik.
