(Added more buffs and nerfs for this character. Added the exact frame data some of the individual moves.)
Line 27: Line 27:
Her special moves have seen the most improvements. Nayru's Love has one more frame of invulnerability and allows her to move in the air while using the move. Din's Fire no longer puts her in freefall, travels in a tighter arc, and has better use offstage due to the new airdodge nerfs. Farore's Wind is faster, preserves more momentum, and allows Zelda to drift sooner upon reappearing. The biggest change she receives is the reworking of Phantom. Phantom Slash now assembles in six stages, with the final stage being able to use for trap setups, edgeguarding, and approaching. Zelda can also summon a new Phantom quicker than before. Her new Final Smash, Triforce of Wisdom, is better at trapping opponents and will secure a KO for anyone over 100% at the end of the move.

Nevertheless, she has some noticeable nerfs. Forward tilt has more startup. Her grabs have more endlag, making them more risky to use in neutral to start combos. Farore's Wind travels a shorter distance, hindering her recovery and edgeguarding ability. Since Phantom is formed behind Zelda, this makes her more vulnerable when using the move. If Zelda gets grabbed or takes any damage before the Phantom attacks, the Phantom will collapse. This makes Phantom Slash a move better used in the advantage state.

Zelda (SSBU)
“ You might recognize Zelda's look from The Legend of Zelda: A Link Between Worlds game. In battle she uses magical moves to reflect and teleport, and for her Final Smash, she seals her opponents away in the Triforce of Wisdom. If an opponent has 100% damage or more, they will be instantly KO'd! ”
—Super Smash Blog, Super Smash Bros. Ultimate Official Site

Zelda (ゼルダ, Zelda) is a playable character in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate. She was confirmed as a playable character on June 12, 2018. Zelda is classified as fighter #17.

Zelda is voiced in-game by Ayumi Fujimura, who previously voiced the character in The Legend of Zelda: A Link Between Worlds. She speaks a single English line in the Adventure Mode: World of Light opening, provided by Brandy Kopp.

How to unlock

Complete one of the following:

With the exception of the third method, Zelda must then be defeated on Temple.

Changes from Super Smash Bros. 4

In addition to a visual redesign, Zelda has been significantly buffed in Ultimate. Many of her moves have reduced startup and endlag and improved KO potential. Previously the slowest jab in the game, Zelda's jab comes out quicker and can KO at higher percents. Dash attack and up throw have enhanced knockback power, allowing Zelda to more easily secure KOs. Her special moves have seen the most improvements. Nayru's Love has one more frame of invulnerability and allows her to move in the air while using the move. Din's Fire no longer puts her in freefall, travels in a tighter arc, and has better use offstage due to the new airdodge nerfs. Farore's Wind is faster, preserves more momentum, and allows Zelda to drift sooner upon reappearing. The biggest change she receives is the reworking of Phantom. Phantom Slash now assembles in six stages, with the final stage being able to use for trap setups, edgeguarding, and approaching. Zelda can also summon a new Phantom quicker than before. Her new Final Smash, Triforce of Wisdom, is better at trapping opponents and will secure a KO for anyone over 100% at the end of the move.

Nevertheless, she has some noticeable nerfs. Forward tilt has more startup and endlag. Her grabs have more endlag, making them more risky to use in neutral to start combos. Farore's Wind travels a shorter distance, hindering her recovery and edgeguarding ability. Since Phantom is formed behind Zelda, this makes her more vulnerable when using the move. If Zelda gets grabbed or takes any damage before the Phantom attacks, the Phantom will collapse. This makes Phantom Slash a move better used in the advantage state. Furthermore, she still retains her previous Smash iterations' weaknesses, those being poor range, terrible sourspots, lackluster neutral, and slow movements.

Despite these nerfs and weaknesses, people consider this to be the best Zelda has ever been in a Super Smash Bros. game.

Aesthetics

  • Change Zelda's appearance is based on her design from The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past [1][2][3] and A Link Between Worlds.[4]

    • Nerf Neutral attack has more endlag, is less safe on shield, and no longer reliably combos into dash attack or dash grab at low percents.
    • Nerf The first hit of neutral attack has less hitstun, making it unsafe when used on its own.
  • Dash attack:
    • Buff Dash attack deals more knockback, letting it kill much earlier.
    • Buff Dash attack has less endlag (FAF 40 → 36).
  • Forward tilt:
    • Nerf Forward tilt has more startup (10 → 11/12), and slightly more endlag (FAF 36 → 44).
    • Nerf Forward tilt deals less knockback.
  • Up tilt:
    • Buff Up tilt has a longer hitbox duration (7-18 → 7-19).
  • Down tilt:
    • Buff Down tilt has slightly less endlag (25 → 22).
    • Nerf Down tilt sends at a worst angle for comboing (80 degrees → 60 degrees).

Aerial attacks

  • Buff All aerials have less landing lag (19 → 14 (neutral aerial), 23 → 15 (forward aerial), 25 → 16 (back aerial), 19 → 12 (up aerial), 18 → 12 (down aerial).
  • Buff Forward aerial is faster (frame 9 → 6), now being as fast as back aerial.

  • Change Lightning Kicks and down aerial have unique sound effects, even if the sweetspot misses.
  • Nerf Up aerial has more base knockback, but less knockback growth, and is weaker overall.
  • Nerf Opponents occasionally fall out of neutral air.

Throws/other attacks

  • Nerf Dash grab has slightly more startup and endlag;(Active Frames 11 → 13) (FAF 47 → 48). This makes it one of the slowest non-tether grab.
  • Nerf Standing grab has more endlag (FAF 38 → 40).
    • Buff Pummel is faster.
    • Change Zelda grabs and pummels opponents with one hand instead of two.
  • Change Forward throw, back throw, and up throw have altered animations, and Zelda's hands emit brighter trails of magic.
  • Forward throw:
    • Nerf Forward throw deals less damage (12 → 10), and much less knockback growth, diminishing its KO potential despite a base knockback increase.
  • Up throw:
    • Buff Up throw has much more knockback growth and is now capable of KOing under 150% without rage.
  • Back throw:
    • Buff Back throw deals more damage (11 → 12) and knockback, improving its KO potential.

    • Nerf Down throw deals more knockback, weakening its combo potential.

Special moves

  • Nayru's Love:
    • Buff Nayru's Love's intangibility starts at least 1 frame earlier (5 → 4).
    • Buff Nayru's Love no longer halts vertical momentum, allowing Zelda to move in the air while using the move.
  • Din's Fire:
    • Buff Din's Fire no longer leaves Zelda helpless in the air.
    • Buff Din's Fire can travel slightly farther.
    • Buff The changes to airdodge mechanics indirectly improve Din's Fire's edgeguarding utility. Since airdodges are riskier to use offstage, recovering opponents are left in a more vulnerable position if they try to avoid Din's Fire.
    • Change Din's Fire's flame has a more stylized appearance.
  • Farore's Wind:
    • Buff Farore's Wind has less startup and endlag. (Active frame 8 → 6).
    • Buff Farore's Wind travels faster after disappearing (Aerial Reappearance Frames, 41/42 → 35/36; Grounded Version 41/42 → 33/34) and preserves more momentum when used right after a jump.
    • Buff Zelda can drift in the air much sooner after reappearing.
    • Nerf Farore's Wind travels a significant shorter distance.
    • Change Farore's Wind now shows small green orbs that move in the direction Zelda teleports toward.
    • Change Farore's Wind produces a more intense green/yellow vortex at the start and end of the move.
  • Phantom Slash:
    • Change Phantom Slash has been heavily reworked. The Phantom armor now assembles itself behind Zelda rather than appearing fully formed out of a portal in front of her. It is now a single-press chargeable move; Pressing B again will cause the incomplete armor to attack at its current charge level. The move has six charge levels, each resulting in a different attack:
      • 1. Kick
      • 2. Punch
      • 3. Outward slash
      • 4. Downward slash
      • 5. Upward slash
      • 6. Delayed upward slash
    • Buff Phantom Slash's fully charged attack is now momentarily delayed, allowing Zelda to move around before the Phantom rushes forward. Zelda can set it as a trap and attack the opponent in tandem with the Phantom, or she can retreat behind it for protection. This also discourages the opponent from reflecting the Phantom since she now has enough time to respond with Nayru's Love.
    • Buff Zelda can summon a new Phantom much more quickly after the previous one is destroyed
    • Nerf Phantom Slash's fully charged attack deals less damage since it no longer hits twice.
    • Nerf The phantom will get caught on platforms, hindering it's utility on certain stages, and the phantom charges behind Zelda now, leaving her more vulnerable.
  • Triforce of Wisdom:
    • Change Zelda has a new Final Smash called Triforce of Wisdom. She magically opens a glowing, triangular portal that sucks in the opponent and immobilizes them while dealing damage. If the opponent is at or above 100% damage before the portal closes, they are instantly KO'd; otherwise, they receive mediocre knockback.

Classic Mode: Wisdom Prevails

All of Zelda's battles are on The Legend of Zelda themed stages, and her opponents are all villains who can be considered to be unintelligent or mindless, in reference to the name of her route.

Role in World of Light

Zelda was among the fighters that were summoned to fight the army of Master Hands.

During the opening cutscene, Zelda tried to rally the other fighters to fight the army of Master Hands by saying, "Stow your fear; it's now or never!". Zelda was present when Galeem unleashed his beams of light. Zelda and Mewtwo attempted to reflect the beams using Nayru's Love and Confusion, respectively, but this attempt failed, and both of them were vaporized and placed under Galeem's imprisonment along with the rest of the fighters (excluding Kirby).

Zelda was one of the many fighters that fell under Dharkon's control upon Galeem's first defeat. She is unlocked in the Sacred Realm of the World of Dark on the bottom left corner of the land which makes up the Triforce of Wisdom. The player must defeat the Spirit of Impa (which is revealed by solving a clock-based puzzle) to clear a boulder that's blocking the path to her unlock battle and then the Spirit of Uxie, Mesprit & Azelf. Unlocking her reveals the Triforce of Wisdom in the center of the map. If Young Link is unlocked, the boulders leading to Cloud's unlock battle and the Master Sword clears out.

Zelda is later seen among several other fighters, making their last stand against Galeem and Dharkon. She is also seen in the bad ending where Galeem emerges victorious against Dharkon, witnessing Galeem engulf the world in light.

Trivia

  • Masahiro Sakurai chose to base Zelda's design in Ultimate off of her A Link to the Past and A Link Between Worlds incarnation instead of her more recent Breath of the Wild incarnation because that version of Zelda, according to him, "is more into research than fighting."
  • Zelda's current default design was previously an alternate costume, while her previous default design based on Twilight Princess has now become an alternate costume.
    • Coincidentally, Zelda was revealed in Smash 4 at the same time A Link Between Worlds was released, which inspired her current design.
  • Zelda is currently the only playable Legend of Zelda character in Smash whose design originates from a handheld game rather than a home console game.
  • The World of Light trailer marks the first time Zelda has spoken with dialogue in the Smash series.
    • This is also the first time Zelda has ever spoken with an American accent. In Breath of the Wild, she spoke with a British accent.
    • Zelda speaks English in all Western language versions of Ultimate, unlike her Breath of the Wild incarnation who was dubbed into multiple languages.
