@@Linktober04 And he has a builder outfit too. Granted he IS the most recognizable character and he's Nintendo's mascot but even then that doesn't exuse Yoshi with his crafted world design, Meta Knight with his Dark MK and Galacta Knight Alts, Link with four alternative costumes that aren't from breath of the wild, little Mac's wireframe, hoodie wireframe, and his hoodie alt, and every non Pokèmon Trainer Pokèmon. Not to mention gender swaps, Classic Bayonetta and Inklings. I don't use Toon Link myself, but he deserves at least one unique alt that isn't a recolor.

When a game has three characters with the same name, clothes and weapons, but they all still manage to feel unique and pull in different players.

He doesn't compete with the other two because he doesn't try to. He's just alternative rush down. Link is a technical setup zoner, and yink is a zoner with a ton of mix up.

That’s so true. I personally liked Tink the best to play. ESAM claimed that Tink is the best link but #ESAMOpinions. The main things that Tink has over the other Links are his bombs, mobility, and aerials. Bomb fair kills at 70% lmfao. Bomb to retreating fair on shield to catch the bomb bouncing off is also good shield pressure. It’s p safe and you get the bomb back into your hand to punish their next option.

He's really only as much of a zoner as you want him to be, you can focus more on his melee options to great effect. People often anticipate Toon Link to start throwing things the moment he appears on screen, then get caught off guard by how quickly he can approach and start racking up damage.

Love these Art of ... videos. Watching the training gets you to train and watching the characters makes you want to play the characters 👍

Thank you for crediting me IzAw. Great and inspiring guide as always

Some things in my time playing toon link I do: I love his bombs. I spam them to an extent and use them in combos. I turned off up on the left stick to jump so I can use his Up B spin attack more reliably without accidently jumping. Sometimes I throw bombs at people, sometimes I throw it up or drop it to deny area.

Thank you so much, I use Toon Link a lot but I wasn’t really aware of a few of these tricks.

I’ve needed something like this for the longest time! Thanks man

My old Smash 4 main, and the most consistent one at that. Recently I got into using Daisy/Peach and really love their playstyle, but now I want to get back with Toon Link and make him my secondary. Thanks for the video. 👍

The feeling when you realise that one minute of the video has already passed and you haven't heard a word of what IzAw has been saying beacause you've been just concentrated on the edits.

bro your video and photography editing is out of this world, if you ever are looking for somewhere to place your talents, I'm sure youll find it. Thank you for creating probably some of the best guides.

Hey izaw! Awesome video, your editing skills are definitely improving. Toon Link seems like an interesting character, might try him out even though I'm not really a zoner guy. I know you probably get a lot of requests, but Bowser jr has a lot of interesting setups and confirms and also high damage combos, but I understand if you wait a while because he is a less played character. Either way, have a great day and keep up the awesome work!

Tink has been my main for like 3 years now, but I'm still not good enough to do this stuff. This video taught me that I could use my grapple hook as a practical attack in the air.

Thanks. Now it’s time to practice. This is an amazing tutorial I found super useful. Botw Link is an amazing upgrade to the smash series but I could never walk away from Toon Link.

1:35 "and TRI FORCING as many jumps and approaches as possible" I GET IT

Why is this still the best toon link guide on KZread? Like not saying it’s a terrible guide but it’s been over 2 years and the toon link community can’t come up with one good one? The games been out for 5 years now.

FINALLY !! I was waiting for the remake for so long !! Thanks You Izaw 😀

Not gonna lie, didn’t expect this, but I absolutely love it. I have loved Toon since I first started playing Smash Bros back in Brawl. I know he’s not as good as other characters (hell, even the other Links!), but I still love him. This has given me that spark to play him more often again (I’ve been messing around with other characters as of late like Lucario). Thank you for this!!!

Also, this is a BEAUTIFUL and excellent in-depth guide on how to properly use tink. Thank you for this video

Seeing as they heavily nerfed bomb fakes outs going into Ultimate, I kinda had a crisis trying to playing neutral from there since bomb fakes outs _was_ my neutral in Smash 4. So you can only imagine the surprise I had when you did one at 9:08 with legitimate affect. I can't tell you how priceless this video is considering I dont make enough use of Toon Link's close range game and when I do, it's often wrong. All I can say is thank you so much for reminding me and encouraging me to keep playing this character. (Almost switched to normal Link out of lust for tech skill, close one)

I love toon link's sword sounds

I remember watching the Art of Toon Link from Smash 4, thank you for this.

I love your videos man! You should do one on Greninja next

Izaw great job, these videos help out a lot

Been waiting for this video since you started doing Ultimate "Art of" videos. Your Smash 4 video on Toon Link really made me better at him and I can't wait to use the techniques in this video. Thanks for helping me become a better player! P.S. Those prints are really good! If I had some money I'd buy all of them!

The art you made is amazing

I thought u weren’t gonna bother looking at Toon link until the last dlc of season 1 but Izaw you suprised me and amazed me. Thank you 🙏🏽

"Try forcing as many jumps and air dodges as possible." Hah, I get it!

His throws are way better on stages with platforms, because at low %s, you can force a tech situation on platforms, letting you try and punish an option with any of your aerials, or try to punish with boomerang. You can also neutral airdodge and within about 2 frames of the airdodge animation buffer a z drop, giving you a pseudo counter. This helps alleviate the struggle that is landing with Toon Link, causing your opponent to hit the bomb instead of you while you get to drift away, giving damage to them, as well as putting them in a state of disadvantage. Zair is also a move that Toon Link should consider a lot between matchups, with characters that have a good out of shield, faster aerials, and are hard to challenge with your normal sword, you can space out and hit them with the safe long disjoint that is his your zair.
