Compared to his predecessors, Link features a few noticeably distinct properties to his moveset. He is now right handed as in ''Breath of the Wild'', with several altered animations as a result. While at 0%, he can use his forward smash to launch a Sword Beam, improving his camping potential near the beginning of his stocks. Compared to his previous Bombs, the [[Remote Bomb]] Rune is detonated on command, granting it improved utility and KO potential. He lacks a [[Hookshot]] or [[Clawshot]] due to neither of them appearing in ''Breath of the Wild''; while his grab has less range and can no longer be used for spacing or recovery, it is much faster and thus safer to use. He can also pick up previously fired [[Bow and Arrows|arrow]]s and shoot two simultaneously, and his Final Smash utilizes an [[Ancient Bow]] to fire an Ancient Arrow, similar to Zelda and Sheik's [[Light Arrow]] in previous installments. | Compared to his predecessors, Link features a few noticeably distinct properties to his moveset.

His Master Sword has greater reach, and he greatly benefits from the universal reduction of landing lag, although his already sluggish frame data has been further worsened in other aspects. His Boomerang has reverted to its appearance from ''64'' and ''Melee'', restoring some of its combo potential. Due to these buffs and his more technical gameplan, Link has been positively received in competitive play with strong representation and results, and is generally agreed to be at least | Aside from these changes, Link has been noticeably buffed from ''Smash 4''.
