“B” Move Guide
B = A powerful arrow that goes a long distance and may also pierce Ness's B shield. Does 18% damage at full charge which takes approximately 3 seconds. Rating = 5 of 5
Down B = Link pulls out a bomb in a second that isn't very effective alone, but is best used if timed right in conjunction with other weapons. Such as taking shooting an arrow, then throwing the bomb, then boomerang in succession. Rating = 3 of 5
Up B = Link rapidly spins in a circle several times and hits any nearby foes. Definitely Link's signature move, this provides large knockback to other players sending them flying. When used it mid air, it propels link upwards. However, it is vulnerable to attacks from directly above, or below and has a long delay time. Rating = 4 of 5
Side B = Link throws a boomerang that does moderate damage. The boomerang may be thrown again as soon as it comes back and can be angled up or down. It also goes quite far making it a good projectile to fend off approaching players. Rating = 5 of 5
Throw Guide
Z = Link shoots a hook shot with range about 1.5 to 2 times as much range as his sword which grabs on to the enemy. Delay is bad. Rating = 3 of 5.
Z then Up = After grabbing, pressing up will cause link to throw up his opponent and slash them while they are in the air. Probably Link's best throw, it works well with a quick Mid Air Up A following it. Rating = 4 of 5.
Z then Down = Link throws his opponent on the floor, nothing special. Rating = 2 of 5.
Z then Forward = Link kicks his opponent off of his hook shot, nothing special. Rating = 2 of 5.
Z then Back = Link turns around and slashes the enemy off of his hook shot, more damage and knock back than Z then Forward, but again, nothing special.
