Link (SSB2K)

Link was confirmed to return to Super Smash Bros. 2K. Also every move he does is from Super Smash Bros. Brawl so no changes yet on his movesets.

Attributies
Link may be a character of poor speed, but he makes up for that with a versatile moveset. His sliding DACUS also helps his slow mobility. Link is moderately heavy, having the same weight as Captain Falcon. Link is also one of the heaviest characters in the game with good Directional Influence and momentum canceling, especially vertically, which along his extremely quick fast fall allows him to live almost as long as Snake, but he has arguably the worst recovery in the game, and sometimes his fast fall can also give him problems while recovering. His heavyweight backfires, however, by making him extremely vulnerable to chain grabs that force him offstage. Link's tilts are fast and powerful, and his down tilt is particularly good for getting opponents into the air. It can also meteor smash at the tip of the sword or hitting behind Link. His up tilt is fast and good for juggling, and his forward tilt can easily kill at high percentages. Link's forward smash can become a two hit combo; it is also a great kill move, depending from where the sword connects.
