===Tier placement and history=== | |||
Despite the considerable power buffs he received in ''Brawl'', his amazing momentum cancelling, and being given a useuable DACUS, Link has perpetually hovered among ''Brawl'''s bottom four characters since the first tier list. Link's terrible and extremely gimpable recovery has always significantly limited Link's survivability even in the early inexperienced ''Brawl'' metagame, and his very sluggish attacks and terrible mobility significantly inhibited Link's ability to effectively compete since day one. Link has had some renowned players, such as KirinBlaze and Legan in the United States, Izaw in Europe, and Scabe in Australia, but none of these players have ever achieved much beyond the local level, and they have all since dropped Link for a better character (such as Izaw dropping Link for Sheik), or stopped playing ''Brawl'' competitively altogether. As such, Link's competitive prospects have never gotten any better over the years, and while he isn't usually thought of as a candidate for worst character, it's extremely unlikely Link will ever rise beyond the bottom tier, as he perpetually competes with {{SSBB|Jigglypuff}} for the 35th spot on the tier list. | |||
