Link is, in general, a well-ranged fighter. He is a | Link is, in general, a well-ranged fighter. He is a middleweight (tied with {{PM|Captain Falcon}} in weight) possessing three [[projectile]]s and long disjointed [[hitbox]]es in his sword attacks, allowing him to zone opponents out, heckle them from far away, and start combos from a distance before moving in. Both his [[Bomb (Link)|Bombs]] and [[Boomerang]] can be used to create openings, which allow Link to start a combo or get in a finishing hit. Link's is also packed with a stellar defensive game, as his [[Shield (Link)|Hylian Shield]] can block projectiles when standing still, crouching (which aids his [[crouch cancel]]), and even while walking. His Spin Attack is also one of the most potent [[out of shield]] options in the game. The latter attack is also highly effective for [[edge guarding]] onstage, as it will [[semi-spike]] any opponent who fails to [[edge sweet spot|sweet spot the edge]], sending them away towards the [[blast line]]s. Link also has a good aerial game; his up and down aerials are very powerful and stay active for a long time, serving as combo finishers, and his Bombs can be used efficiently for glide tossing. His other three aerials have low lag and decent range, serving as both combo and approach tools. His tilts are generally fast, especially his forward tilt, which can be quite devastating on those not expecting it; it is also a potent edge-guarding tool. His up tilt can combo into itself and/or juggle opponents, and his down tilt is also good at edge-guarding and can lead into combos at moderate percentages. | ||
Link's smash attacks are of an above average speed, as well as being of the most powerful. His forward and up smashes are both effective at KOing and pressuring [[shield]]s, with both leading into combos at low percentages to rack up damage quickly. Finally, his down smash is useful to KO any opponent at higher percentages. His up and down smashes both have incredibly fast startup, whilst the latter has somewhat moderate end lag. | Link's smash attacks are of an above average speed, as well as being of the most powerful.
