10 ADVANCED COMBOS to IMPROVE Your Link! (Smash Ultimate)

[@LxZLink]

Is it 20XX yet?

[@diegocaballero7961]

YES IT IS! Well, at last for link mains.... At lesst for us

[@kparkes5413]

Is pit vs link a good match up

[@Suresh_Is_Fresh]

20BombNair

[@josesoto1219]

Jordane Parkes 🤔 I mean Pit is a decent all around character but is just held back because he has nothing all to special about him, while link is a great zoner who can approach with things like f-tilt with high risk high reward scenario and actual has his bomb gimmicks which can confirm into a dash grab. In the end Pit could get into links face but not really kill him but instead gimp him & link can get into pits face and has more than enough options to kill pit. I’d say link has the winning matchup

[@kparkes5413]

@@josesoto1219 ok

[@emsharingan8639]

The meta progression of this character will never stop. So much optimization.

[@Neon_Streets]

EMS Sharingan I am so ready for the link meta to evolve, can’t wait for what the future has to hold

[@MrBroken030]

Dude havent been playing this game for years and i love all this new technology!! I stil remember findin day 1 combos, this character has developed so much! 😅

[@josesoto1219]

Me drops link for a day: LxZ: Guess who’s back, back again

[@rakuen7235]

5:46, that nair flying is just gold

[@lazerwolf1997]

I love how they made Link in this smash game, now it's super strong but really hard to master

[@EmberReaper]

I was recently feeling weak playing my favorite character, Link. Making mistakes, making odd choices, uncertain of what I was capable of. Now I'm more excited than ever to play Link. Thanks LxZ!

[@a_punch_and_10000_kicks]

Same, he's been my main in every game, but with the changes Ultimate made I felt kind of lost and as if I might need to change my main, however this video showed me that combos aren't impossible, just a bit more technical

[@bbqseitan7106]

Psycho Milk yeah as a lifelong link main in every game getting used to the bomb and Zair have been a HUGE hurdle for me But as a loyalist I gotta make it work But hey I got to elite without any of the fancy stuff so I’m excited about my potential

[@Solik2315]

Dude I’ve been maining link for over a year and you’re showing me combos I’ve never seen. Really appreciate the effort you put into these man. Excited to lab this out 😀

[@parker8784]

Stephan Ball I know I’ve Maine’s link since the beginning but I still can’t do the whole z drop nair chain and probably never will

[@ZhannArt]

I main link too, I mean in world of light mario is trash and kirby has botenough range XD

[@Gr-is3iq]

Still haven't figured out how to kill golden bokoblins...

[@antocharb1259]

Electric weapons + ice weapons is op

[@MrDanishbuttercookie]

But where’s the video on wall tech b reversing

[@SharqF1n]

Yooo when I saw you do that in your vid my jaw dropped 😱 love it

[@JB-ng1mg]

That was one of the things i clicked the video expecting to see, it may not have been here, but i was not disappointed

[@chrome106]

Saw ur link vids 👏👍

[@diegocaballero7961]

Danish you are a Legend

[@brendanmarklin1929]

Dude because you did that in your video I learned it and now get kills off it consistently :))

[@thexotato]

Every time I watch one of your Link guides, I say to myself alright this is as far as the character can get tech-wise, there's no way there's more and each time you post a new Link video I get proven wrong. Amazing video and I'm excited to see where Link can go!

[@jamesdean8135]

Yep there's still a lot more tech some people just don't like sharing it 😂😂😂

[@cristianalvarez3811]

AWESOME!!! I was soooo sad, I thought you had dropped Link for good :( and a lot of stuff that has improved my game came out of this channel so Im glad your back!

[@rowanevans-lampa9273]

5:56, I can already hear the commentators losing their minds at the sight of this combo

[@captainice_ssbu]

This is legendary. Thank you so much LxZ

[@infiniteichiwon_7271]

Honestly just a well optimized and informative guide I'm gonna be in the lab for hours now try these out thanks alot bro

[@QuaseemS]

I’ve been a Link main for the last 9 months and I never knew Nair combos into Fsmash at certain percents. I’m gonna come back to this video tons of times to try and master these combos. I got a ton of great takeaways from this!

[@Smile-sx4io]

Thank you for showing people the potential Link has in Ultimate and for showing me how much I have to improve upon my playstyle

[@LuisGonzalez0505]

This is definitely ADVANCED & definitely super helpful!! Thank you so much, I have a few things to lab out finally!! Great guide, can't wait for the next one!

[@Blink-oy6ux]

Oh my god this is the video i've been waiting for AND you hype me up with decisive battle II?? This channel just delivers, man

[@Jknight416]

Ayyyyy! You’re back! And you have more Link tech to enlighten us with

[@LxZLink]

Would it be a link vid without a comment of the legendary JohnKnight?!? Don’t think so!!

[@el_srj]

Sillintor be like: "Alright got it"

[@Senayoshy]

It amazes me all the time how much you manage to find and develop new tech for link, I don't think I can pull off 99% of the stuff here but it's what makes me hyped to one day try these out in game

[@isaacj700]

I love the guide, and the music choice. Man the battle music from Octopath is so good. Nothing would make me happier than to have those battle tunes in smash. They're SO GOOD!!

[@mishi6693]

thank you! as someone who has the beginner bnbs snd tech down, its cool to see how much more there is to learn. especially liked the SH bair flip stuff. ive used it before in matches but didnt appreciate how threatening it is as a burst option when paired with the z drop.

[@GottaLoveDepecheMode]

Please never stop making these videos! I haven't played Smash in a while due to Monster Hunter, but holy crap all of these techs made me super excited to try out!!!

[@kirbyofthestars2269]

I don't usually like and subscribe, but the amazing information and even more stellar editing forced my hand. Absolutely savage content.

[@TheSqueakerNerd]

Thank you so much for these tips! I've been feeling like my basics with short hopping, fast falling & spacing have been consistent recently & have been wondering who I could use to practice combos next. My main is link so I'm very grateful I have some combos to practice with! Thanks so much!

[@jacksoncard]

footstool detonations give me hope for the future.. keep up this dope shit man

[@blaziken907]

Nice vid man, I've been rising in my community as a Link main, and these combos will help me rise even more. Thanks man. :)

[@Christian_Crab]

Dude I saw this video, was intrestead, then I heard the octopath music. I instantly had an orgasmic experience, and it only got better when rivers in a dessert started playing. Also, amazing tutorial. I will be sure to try all of these, you got a new sub!

[@Luphoseer]

As a Link main in every game (even SoulCalibur2), thank you so very much for this. Apologies I forgot to sub earlier when your previous Link tech video came out. Beautiful video, you easily have the best teaching videos I've ever found on Smash. My jaw just DROPPED for most of these techniques! I gotta go...practice...some things. Man, this is going to be pretty tough to actually adapt into normal gameplay in place of my normal gameplay. I'm still working on integrating half the stuff from the past video! At least I'm already fairly proficient with triple-soft-nair-train offstage for gimping people early. I got some work to do!

[@LxZLink]

Good luck! and thanks for the sub!!!

[@Le_Klaigg]

I often come back to this video. Your great work helped and continues to help me a lot to improve, thank you!

[@SparkyForce]

Never thought Link's combos could be almost as technically demanding as Peach's. O.O

[@loicpernot8779]

"Almost"

[@SparkyForce]

@@loicpernot8779 While Link does benefit from these technically demanding combos, they aren't as critically important, or *quite* as difficult, as Peach's.

[@Gggghhhggghhhgg]

SparkyForce Don’t care still cool

[@crachalify]

Love your link guides! Keep up the good work

[@elfuerterd8633]

Great video!!! Something I do with returning boomerang is throw an arrow, boomerang hits opponent, I execute fair, I use the arrow to make unsure opponent won't avoid the boomerang. It's a classic for me

[@al58544]

Pushing link meta even further 🙏

[@DayDreamZura]

I think I shed a few tears during this. Idk why, maybe because I’m super passionate about this character. To see all of this just makes one be proud to play Link

[@zainghalib5587]

I was literally about to ask for your help on discord, but low and behold this video pops up on my recommended. LxZ I acctually can't thank you enough for your effort and dedication to this channel. I think I speak for everyone when I say your videos are so helpful.

[@LxZLink]

Thanks so much:))) glad i was able to help

[@iwaopeln4130]

Merci beaucoup pour la vidéo LxZ! Très instructive, de qualité, et le display des input aide vraiment à saisir les combos. Même en ayant connaissance et maîtrisant tout c'qui est Nair loops et compagnie, j'étais même pas au courant qu'on pouvait avoir Nair > Fsmash de true, et j'ai pas mal appris avec la vidéo en général. En espérant voir plus de vidéo sur Link prochainement, et ça fait plaisir que t'ais pas lâché le perso. Continue comme ça et bon courage pour la suite, j'attends tes futurs vidéos avec impatience!

[@LxZLink]

Merci pour ton commentaire!! :)

[@MickeyYeahbaby]

Oh my lord. He's come a long way since Melee... Feels good to be a Link main. Time to try to learn these combos and never actually pull them off midmatch!

[@linkybot9395]

They had us in the first half not gonna lie

[@blueberry139]

Thanks for this video!! I started using link not so long ago and I feel there is so much about him I still have to discover. He comes with a wide range of possibilities. I’ll start using these combos pretty soon!!!!

[@justabazikdude8592]

It's been months but I'm finally at that level where I can pull off a bunch of thoses. AND IT'S SO FUN!!! THANK YOU xD That turn around SH Z-drop down air sequence is so sick to pull off and the nair train make link go from clumsy to deadly with a bomb in his hand. Still got that fair loop to work on. Tl;Dr: Big THANK YOU for your lessons sensei!

[@Nossimid]

oh my god. This is the smash stuff I live for. Can't wait to see players figure this out, and to start practicing myself

[@ripudamansingh2]

High quality content. Great video. You're underrated, man. Subscribed

[@kayo4509]

I had fun doing them all. Might have link for pocket in bracket. Love this video.

[@NotBae]

Great stuff my man. Might need to start using Link now 🤔

[@LxZLink]

I've started using Mewtwo because of you, so it would be only fair! :D

[@nicholassegard8405]

Absolutely love the potential on this character. Thank you for the guides!

[@acesmashultimate8804]

NICE! I´ve been waiting for a follow up of the original, yesss!!!

What a Great combo guide! Now, I will take my Link into Elite now.

[@bradleyblomer1740]

I needed this in my life.

[@bond3161]

You are just incredible. I hope your techniques are showcased by yourself or others at top level play.

[@CozyyPR]

yoo bro this video is clean! Link is annoying for me so it's good to know these confirms so I can look out for them 👀

[@LxZLink]

Joker is annoying for me and i’ve been checking your stuff too 👀👀

[@neptuneinfinite892]

This will definitely get my Link back to my top tier. Thanks man!! 🔥🔥

Dude this video is ridiculous! Great job, subbed. I’m looking for exactly this but for Ness. Thx!

[@Jknight416]

5:56 Ahhh yes. The BOTW Link combo that is music to my ears.

[@grandimations7309]

Link is my secondary, so this tutorial will really help me polish him, thanks!

[@raul8356]

This is a great guide, I just started playing link and practicing what’s in this video will help a lot. Thanks :)

[@italkdisneyparks9385]

Dude... just thank you

[@monolithsmith]

I stumbled upon you and played you a few games in the rooms online. Great Link. Great knowledge. 👍

[@LxZLink]

Thank you:)

Jab returning boomerang into a kill is actually broken thank you so much

I had no idea I could combo with my link so well, thank you!

[@dublendee5972]

I LOVE that spike! So satisfying

[@lukemedina19]

These are some really cool advanced combos!! Bout to tear up elite smash with run back boomerang...

[@ANNONE616]

Thanks for this video! You explain all the steps perfectely

[@DekarsBlade]

Time to pick up my BOTW Link again. Great video!

[@PlayrR3D156]

Amazing video omg!

[@ForeverAbroad]

Well. Time to level up. I was already confident in my skills. But I learned some things here that will definitely bring me to the next level

[@Aztr_artz]

Your content is amazing! You just earned another sub!!

[@gnomewithaglobe]

Going to my first tournament gonna use these combos😁

[@moocowp4970]

I love your videos, such great content! This stuff is gold!

[@Herotastic_24]

This video was very helpful, here's a sub!

[@yowza9638]

1:23 Pikachu, I will forever view your incessant pancake-ing as a personal attack.

[@LegendaryPokemon1221]

I have unintentionally managed a few of these combos, but now I can't wait to practice them and implement them into my gameplay so it's intentional.

[@josephcunningham9045]

Nice, Octopath music.

[@richpichu1272]

I’ve needed this thanks so much

[@fab4kleydestiny892]

Really, really love this video. Thank you so much.

[@MrAlxy602]

Yes! Thank you for the vid

[@kylenieuwenhuis2261]

These moves help my link a lot

[@ChrisReubel]

Amazing video!

[@LeeElement]

Nair trains into z drop footstool is something I've been trying to get in actual games but I haven't practiced enough. I don't often recognize opportunities to go for them either.

[@masteroogway8176]

To practice, I would say to first thinking about using your great neutral options to get them off the ledge from even the smallest moves like jab. From there you can control which setups to go for because they only have 3 options or so. make a setup for each option then practice it until you recognize them easily.

[@masterarcher5883]

This helped me so much. Thank you!

[@Dani-dg1gp]

Oh my!! Great sound, explanations, editing nice nice nice NICE!!! ❤️💖✨❣️💖

[@navataru]

Any tips on how to consistently short hop? Or Bair while running forward? I seem to have trouble with those inputs. Solid video. I can see why Sakurai hasn't buffed Link in the last 7 patches. Because they probably know that if you frame perfect everything, you can 0 to death them.

[@Severnex]

Do you already use X (joycons) or Y (gc controller) to jump? If you already do or don't, it just takes a lot of practice to quickly tap the button. For the bair, imagine doing a streetfighter Sonic boom without having to hold back for 2 seconds. I practice by always running forward (for momentum and ease), visualize your character hitting the brakes by pressing the opposite direction, jump+look back into the momentum direction and attack.

[@navataru]

@@Severnex I use a gamecube controller with tap jump on. For some combos and linking moves I use the X-button to jump. However for movement and recovery, I use the tap jump. Yea i'm just having a difficult time running forward and doing a turn around. The game just turns me around and dashes the other way for me.

[@LxZLink]

@@navataru the easiest way to short hop is to slide your finger off the jump button instead of tapping it :)

[@navataru]

@@LxZLink I've tried that, my hand dexterity doesn't match up, I suppose? I was told that pressing A and Y to jump at the same time limits my jump to a short hop no matter what. But that means I'm always forcing a nair.

[@LxZLink]

@@navataru you can always map 2 buttons to jump. if you press them both t the same time it will short hop. I do recommend learning the traditional way, i suppose:) It's really easy, you just need to get the hang of it! It was tough for me at first too but now i dont even have to think about it.

[@kipperonis]

This octopath and persona music 👌👌👌👌 great taste

[@guppysoul1574]

Such a great vid thank u!!!

[@Bread._]

This was a good video. Thank you.

[@gibidy2250]

Your guides are awesome, I am still finding myself learning from them and practicing these techniques and really making my link play better and better! Any tips on controller setup? I’ve been working recently in perfecting bomb recovery and bomb loops which has made me more confident in pulling a lot of other bomb techniques off. Thanks for these videos!
