Event Match 18: Link's Adventure is an event match from Super Smash Bros. Melee. This aim is simply to defeat Dark Link, an evil clone of Link.


The description of the event is "Everybody has a dark side. Link has two". The word "two" could be a reference to Zelda II, the fact that Dark Link had appeared in two games at the time (Zelda II and Ocarina of Time), or to the fact that Dark Link has two stocks in the event match. It could also be a typo and the intended meaning was "too". However, this would grammatically be incorrect if it was indeed a typo. It may even a reference to the fact that both links have 2 stocks.

A similiar event appears in Brawl under the name Dark Link Duel. However, rather than using the standard percentage-based damage meter, the battle is fought using stamina.

Trivia

  • The title of this Event Match most likely is a reference to Zelda II: Adventure of Link, which featured a final battle against Dark Link as well.
  • Event 18: Dark Link Duel has the same event number as Link's adventure and is similair to the event in melee.
