Reverse Grip

[DuelMark]

Would you like to see Link use his sword with a reverse grip?

 

[Snow Queen]

I don't think people seem to understand how stupid and impractical reverse gripping a sword is. Your swings suffer a drastic power loss, your swipes are loose and catch air, its awful.

 

[Azure Sage]

Nah. I've never really liked that style of swordplay at all. If he was dual wielding and one sword gripped normally with the other in a reverse grip, I might be able to tolerate it, but I still don't really like it. Also, what @Snow Queen said.

 

[Mipha]

It would be interesting, but I like just normal wielding.
IMO,Ahsoka was the only person(Alien?) that could make that work.

Not for his regular sword.
I am however a strong advocate of Link being able to use other weapons and enemy weapons rather than being restricted to his usual blade.
There could be all kinds of different blade styles he could use including a reverse grip, but just not as a regular fighting style. I think it is best to stick with what we are used to for his standard weapon in this particular case.

Not really because Link is a swordsman, not a show off.

Maybe switch it up mid-combo just to look cool, but nothing permanent.

Maybe for a special combat move, but definitely not for regular moves. The reverse grip just looks too unnatural to be using all the time.
