Template:Character Ganondorf is the main villain of The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time. Mainly in all the other Zelda games, he is in his other form that resembles a large warthog/pig. This is the first time, and mostly ever, that he will be playable.

Nintendo has thought of him to be a slow character, but used correctly, he is very fast, using SHFFLd moves. He relies on his air game, and without it, would do almost horrible. He is somewhat heavy, has hard hitting moves, and has a great recovery. Although, he can be combo'd easily, is a great character.

Pros & Cons

Pros

  • Powerful attacks
  • Decent horizontal recovery
  • U/D throws are perfect setups for pretty much anything
  • Surprisngly good edgeguarder
  • Heavy weight
  • L-cancelling allows him to become a nimble powerhouse

Cons

  • Slow dash and run
  • Easy to chain grab
  • Slow startup time for F-smash/D-smash
  • Huge target
  • Weight allos him to be juggled fairly easily
  • No projectile

Home Run Contest

Bat drop: Do a full jump above the sandbag, at the peak of your jump, drop the bat, and do a dair (Down+A in the air). Does around 39%.

Double Jump Bat Drop: First to a full jump, then do a double jump. IMMEDIATELY , right after you start the jump, let go of the bat, then do a fast falled ADA.

Reverse Warlock Punch: Go to the right side of the stand bag(Not laying on the ground, laying vertically up). Do a full jump above the right edge of the sandbag, then do a double jump, IMMEDIATELY after you do it, throw the bat up, tap left, then start a Warlock Punch. The bat will knock the Sandbag into your punch, and it mysteriously send the bag farther and faster than normally. The chances of this happening are somewhat random, and harder to do if the sandbag is at a higher percent.

Also, you may just do a 1 full jump instead and throw the bat up, and tap left then start the Warlock Punch, but you need to be faster, as the Warlock Punch needs to be started in the air.

Tied with Ice Climbers for the World Record.

One of the suggested Methods to get a decent score:

  • Grab the Bat.
  • Uncharged Upsmash.
  • Turn right, then jump backwards, to the right edge of the sandbag while it is still in mid air, and do a double jump bat drop.
  • 3 more bat drop+ Down A
  • Reverse Warlock Punch.

This will net you 5,500 ft from the center of the platform.
