Having many disjointed melee attacks and two projectile weapons, '''Link''' (Japanese: リンク, ''Rinku'') can be a hassle to [[approach]]. However, his lack of speed and maneuverability cause Link even more problems in [[approach]]ing an opponent. In fact, much of Link's strategy consists of standing back, throwing a few [[projectile]]s, and waiting for an opening. Due to his slow ground movements and attacks, it is imperative that Link players be able to not only [[short hop]] but be able to input an attack immediately afterwards.
