:::Overall Link is a decent character with balanced speed and power, but unfortunately it is his falling speed that hurts him the most because it brings down the effectiveness his overall air game. However, he does have moves like Zair (Amazing vertical range matched only by Samus) and Dair (massive killing power) that can make at least acceptable air game if played properly. Many people also criticize his Up Special as well, but it's worth noting that it is one of the most powerful Up Specials in the series as well as still having decent vertical and horizontal distance. If his falling speed was more average or floatier like his Toon counterpart instead of falling practically faster than even the heaviest characters in the series, I think that Link would be at least a C (middle) tier character.

Someone said if we wanted to prove he's good, then win some tournaments. Well if you look up Smash Bros. tournaments, and look through them you'll find a tournament held by Best Buy. It was like Nationals or something. And the National Champion Daniel Jung, used Link as his character. So I think it is proof enough to say Link is a good, if not, one of the best characters. I use him and I think he's great, other than his slack recovery. But I always say. I'm so good, my recovery is never needed. Hope that is enough proof! <small>—Preceding unsigned comment added by [[User:75.176.182.64|75.176.182.64]] ([[User talk:75.176.182.64|talk]] • [[Special:Contributions/75.176.182.64|contribs]]) 19:29, 3 October 2009 (UTC)</small>

:Sorry to rain on your "I <3 Link!" parade, but that's not how it works... Yeah, someone might have won a tournament with him, but that's only one tournament - the top tier characters like Meta Knight and Snake are the ones that win by far most of the tournaments. The tier lists are done by which characters win the most tournaments, and the fact that you can only come up with one that's been won using Link simply goes to show why he's so low down the tier list.

If it's true, then it is notable. Unless multiple characters have it, then it should remain on the Link page. <span style="font-family:Forte">[[User:Megatron1|<span style="color:maroon">Mega</span>]][[User talk:Megatron1|<span style="color:silver">Tron1</span>]][[User:Megatron1/Laughology|<span style="color:blue">XD</span>]]</span>[[File:Decepticon.png|19px|:p]] 20:35, 6 May 2011 (EDT)

:I haven't done any serious testing for this, so I'm not sure, but I seriously doubt that Link of all characters has the slowest item pickup time. Note that the original editor wrote "for some reason it feels like", meaning he may not have done serious testing. [[User:Mr. Anon|Mr. Anon]] ([[User talk:Mr. Anon|talk]]) 20:39, 6 May 2011 (EDT)
::Had a look, and Link's eating while standing subaction appears to lack an "interruptable on frame 9" event that both Samus and Wolf (chosen at random) have, meaning the animation would have to continue for its full 20 frames (pretty much twice the time). Will look later to see how many other characters have this property (if any).

== Placement ==
Shouldn't Link's placement in 64 be his worst? He ranks 2nd to last for Sakurai's sake![[User:RatedMforMario]]. [[User talk:RatedMforMario|Let's-a-go]]!~ 21:03, 11 February 2018 (EST)
:First off, your tone is not acceptable. Secondly, no. As percentages, Link places 92.10% in Brawl, but 91.66% in 64. This is a small difference, but his Brawl placement is still lower regardless (because of the way I calculated it, 100% is the worst placement).
