Question

Do you think Zelda has Potential in the Smash 4 Meta ?

I personally think she has the Tools to make to At Least D Tier. She's only held back by her Weight in which she should definitely be a bit Heavier, & just some overall Design Flaws [mostly regarding her UpB which responds VERY awkwardly at times]

    I have dabbled in Zelda some bit on Smashladder. From my expierences I think Zelda is bottom 2 a close spot to Jigglypuff let me explain why that is. 1# She is slow: Now this is one of her most obvious one of her weakness but it does heavily affect how you would aproach a match for example if I was playing a Fox and its a last stock last hit game I the Zelda studys the KEEP READING

    Fox closely trying to find an opening I try doing a short hop Back air to land the sweetspot and land the kill however because of Zeldas slow speed I suffer lots of ending and get punishes with a U smash from Fox. You see Zelda has to commit very hard to her decison but Fox a high tier character can just so a auto cancel back air and not have to worry about me running up and U smashing Keep readin

    Up smashing this entire situation was lost because of Zeldas speed at weight. What I think personally is that if she got buffs giving her more speed and less ending lag then maybe she could be bottom of high tier. BTW I know Nintendo likes keeping true to their characters but a lot of characters suffer from this I think if they just forgot about that (not completely of course) and Keep reading

    just gave them more buffs so they would have a better chance in the meta. 2# combo ability One thing I wanted to say is that against fastfallers she has some pretty good Up Throw combos (I don't know if they are true combos) But none the less there good? So her combo ability at some %s is pretty decent on all characters basically 0-40 % but at higher % not really anything maybe some footstoo

    She needs buffs, that's clear. A good Zelda player like you, can get her whole potential but I think she definitely has too many disadvantages. And that's not fair. For example Peach, not a fighter at all, is extremely powerful. Zelda is D in my opinion. Cause there are characters with even more disadvantages like DK. DK is helpless against projectile spam and easy to combo. Nevertheless I wish

    they would buff her in the next game (if there is one). Teleport needs more intelligence in following stages, the down b knight should have much more hp. She has generally to much endlag everywhere. She needs to be heavier just like Palutena too. Her side b fire should be a bit faster and shouldn't let her freefall into the depth. Just a few things I would change

    Most of my victories are thanks to her. Those who think she's weak is because they don't know how to play.

    She could be around C tier or B. She needs more sweet spots and a better down b and she can be viable.

    I agree that Zelda isn't low-tier, but I don't think she is mid-tier. She plays like a glass cannon, similar to Mewtwo. She has the power and speed of a heavyweight, and also has the weight of a lightweight. Her main problem though, is her speed. Unlike Mewtwo, who is quick, powerful, and light, Zelda is slow, powerful, and light, and being both slow and light isn't good for a glass cannon.

    @FellowKid, yeah u got everything right, i've gotten combos that do about 63%. Upthrow to UpTilt into Nair is a good mixup against fast faller that does 32% damage & is good to get the ball rolling
