Forum:Idea for a Better Link Recovery

Forums: Index → Brawl Talk → Idea for a Better Link Recovery

Link is low on the tier list because of his recovery right? Well, if he could charge his Spin Attack in the air, similiar to Diddy Kong Recovery, he could be better.

OR u could just use his bomb to hurt himself in mid-air thus giving him his recovery move back. "Mas"terman What's the matter?Scared?

Yes. But his recovery sucks compared to the one of Toon Link.

That is true. "Mas"terman What's the matter?Scared?

He currently ranks 36th on the tier list due to his slow attacks, abysmal recovery, and poor match ups. In Brawl, he can charge is Spin Attack, but only on the ground, so it isn't very useful. (full charged the spin attack is a good killing move). If he could charge his spin attack in the air, like Diddy Kong, his recovery would be a lot lot better. Toon Link don't need it, because is recovery is already very good.

If he threw the gale boomerang and touched it in mid-air and he was flung up in the air in a little tornado, that would be good. Luigi wannabee 25 (talk) 13:01, 2 November 2008 (UTC)

There's a lot of things that could happen to make a character better. The only ones that matter are the ones that we can actually do. I wish that Sonic had a good move, so then I could actually use him. However, he doesn't. Nor can Link charge his sword spin. If you want to actually get better at the game, figure out what you can and can't do and stop wishing things were different. Clarinet Hawk (talk · contributions) 18:43, 2 November 2008 (UTC)

What do you have against Sonic? - GalaxiaD (talk) 19:06, 2 November 2008 (UTC)

He's awful. Clarinet Hawk (talk · contributions) 20:17, 2 November 2008 (UTC)

Sonic is not awful just because he's low tier, nor is he awful because of his taunt (which isn't annoying at all). He's just misunderstood because he isn't a Nintendo Character. lol I main Sonic. His worst match-up is possibly Toon Link, or any other character with decent range and projectiles. Sonic is actually quite good once you know how to use his killing moves.

You could just get better with Link and learn how to negate his bad recovery effect with something else...O, Mighty Smoreking 18:47, 2 November 2008 (UTC)

Or switch to Marth and get all the good without much of the suck. Clarinet Hawk (talk · contributions) 18:57, 2 November 2008 (UTC)

Nah, Toon Link is good. Marth doesn't have crazy projectiles.

Uhh, we're talking about Link, not Toon Link. We don't care about oon Link, who doesn't have crazy projectiles.O, Mighty Smoreking 16:39, 9 November 2008 (UTC)

I don't use Link.

I do. He's got a sword and is one of my favorite franchises. That's good enough for me. CAFINATOR ^Indeed 00:21, 7 November 2008 (UTC)

And spammy projectiles... T. T

Link is not spammy. If he were, he's be higher on the list. Blue Ninjakoopa ^{Happy Holidays} 03:51, 17 December 2008 (UTC)

I sometime use Link, I think he's a good character but, sadly I always lose with him (Tier un-related, it's just use characters like Ike more), I don't think that he's a bad character, but Tiers are based on tournament settings and most of Link's power comes from his Final Smash (in brawl) and his ability to get the Smash Ball. That's WHY he's low tier, so stop complaining about his recovery and live with it/ use another character Ike's Best Buddy^{Merry! Christmas!!}

Cool it. People don't make forums to complain, they're just giving their ideas. Link is a good character, and you're just a little upset at his tier placement. Tiers are based on how well a character's meta game is, not how good they are at getting a Smash Ball. Link is not at the bottom because he can't break the Smash Ball easily, he's at the bottom because of poor speed and an easily gimped recovery. Watch some Link combo videos please. And don't tell other people which character they should use. It's annoying, really. Blue Ninjakoopa ^{Happy Holidays} 12:44, 22 December 2008 (UTC)

Couldn't have said it better myself. - GalaxiaD (Happy Holidays!) 20:57, 22 December 2008 (UTC)
