Pretty much all of Link's moves are confirmed to be more or less the same as in Melee (though I think his forward-air looks different). There are a few other neat things that I could imagine theoretically happening, though.

Aimable arrows! Apparently, in Brawl, Bowser can aim his fire breath in any direction, and there's a video of Pit shooting his arrows straight up and down. It would be great if Link could angle his arrows as well.

Bomb arrows! Shooting an arrow while holding a bomb launches the bomb along with it. It worked in Link's Awakening, it worked in Twilight Princess...why not in Brawl?

Mortal Draw! One of Link's taunts appears to be him sheathing his sword in the fancy Twilight Princess style. What if, after standing there long enough, you could deliver a really nasty attack out of it? Probably never going to happen, but it would be pretty neat.

Dude, Mortal Draw would be a *****. You taunt, stand there and when your opponent respawns and charges, you just hit A and Link pulls Mortal Draw, dealing some VERY nasty damage with heavy lag time.

Oh and Bomb Arrows FTW.

Hmm, yeah, those are actually the main additions that I was going to say. I believe one of his taunts shown in the video was the TP sword sheathing?

Maybe fully charging his smash attacks could alter them a bit and include the hidden techniques from TP, such as a fully charged side smash making him jump forward and create a powerful shockwave. Fully charged down smash could make him swing the ball and chain in a circle around him once. Fully charged up smash could... make him hold up the spinner and drill enemies? Well, um, anyway, you get the idea. It'd be nice if they could incorporate the fact that Link is resourceful and has lots of tools.

What they should do is allow mid-air smash attacks, that way at least four more moves will open up. What do you think they could be?

P.S.

Why hasn't the Leap Strike been used in a Smash Bros game yet?!

My style
up B: spin attack
forward: boomerang
neutral B: bomb
down B: equips/unequips goran sword

with the goran sword, all of his attacks are the same but their slower, longer range (duh), and stronger. A downside is that his jump is reduced and recovery for an up + B is reduce as well

I'm REALLY hoping that his
Ball-and-Chain
is in the game somehow.
That thing was pretty fun to play with in TP.
Same thing with
Double Clawshot
.
Other than that, I'm hoping that his arrows have been upgraded to be like Falco's SHL. :laugh:
