Toon Link is currently ranked 13th on the [[tier list]] at the top of the mid-high tier (making him the highest ranked character of all ''The Legend of Zelda'' characters). Toon Link's biggest asset is his variety of versatile [[projectile]]s, which when combined with his great [[jump]]ing ability and air mobility, gives him one of the strongest [[camp]]ing abilities and makes him one of the most difficult characters to [[approach]]. Toon Link additionally has a strong aerial game, with the aforementioned efficient jumping and aerial mobility, and access to fast, powerful [[aerial attack]]s, in addition to a damaging [[zair]], which is useful for keeping opponents at a distance and setting up subsequent attacks. Toon Link also has two great [[combo]] starters in his [[up tilt]] and [[back aerial]] that can combo into themselves, a far reaching and relatively safe [[recovery]], and strong approaching capabilities from his fast movement speed and projectiles. Toon Link however suffers from substandard [[KO]]ing ability, possessing finishers that aren't that powerful with short reach, or in the case of his [[up smash]], being too predictable while lacking strong enough traits to make up for it. Toon Link additionally possesses short [[reach]] throughout his moveset, and a very punishable [[grab]] that lacks the reach to make up for its high [[ending lag]] (in addition to possessing rather poor [[throw]]s). Toon Link overall has strong [[matchup]]s (with his only {{b|counter|matchup}} being {{SSBB|Meta Knight}}), and has achieved above average [[tournament]] results (which have been especially strong in Meta Knight-banned tournaments).
