What Do You Think Skyward Sword Link's Final Smash Could Be?

[JuicieJ]

Personally, if the developers opt to replace Ganondorf for Demise, I'd prefer if Demise's final smash was the Skyward Strike. His lightning charged variation is much stronger and visually appealing that Link's counterpart.

Well, first off, I highly doubt that will happen. Ganondorf is an icon. Getting rid of him would be kind of stupid (even if he is technically a Captain Falcon clone). Second, who's to say they couldn't use the lighting version with Link?

Well, guys, the thread looks to be straying off course a bit; this is about speculation of Link's final smash should this particular Link be SS Link while making the assumption that Final Smashes will return.

I derail threads all the time. Why should I care if my own is?

Triforce Slash. Why change what doesn't need to change?

As A Link in Time said, that move was very generic. It had no real relevance to the Zelda lore.

Same as before. And it's not inevitable. Seeing how Smash Brothers in general seems to favor realistic graphics. You can put Toon Link in and make him distinguishable, but whether it's SS Link or TP Link, it's gonna be seen as TP Link. There's no difference in terms of appearance except graphic styles.

Probably the same as the two other Links, though I'd hope for something different, msybe he'll charge a Super Skyward Strike like Mario's Fireball or Samus' Laser.

Actually, Brawl is the only Smash Bros. game to use realistic textures. The original and Melee were both relatively cartoony.

Beyond that, Toon Link actually had a very distinguished look as compared to the rest of the characters. Despite not being Cel-shaded, he had a very "toon" look to him. The same concept could easily be applied to SS Link.

Also:

So with the inevitability the possibility...

ok his final smash should be, FI coming out of the sword and Annoying everyone to Death. Just like Mr. Resetti from animal crossings in SSBB

Anyway, I figured Link could take to the armor route if he doesn't just get a copy/paste of the T-Slash; perhaps he could "summon" some magic armor, or maybe wear yellow Knight's Garb and have super abilities? Forward Smash could freeze opponents and stuff?

I dont recall Pipit having any super powers...yellow knight uniform is just yellow. Not a superhero outfit...I think they will keep triforce slash.

Because they were on an inferior system...even melee was starting to look pretty realistic.

That's because of his shape. He actually looks different outside of graphics. TP and SS Link don't.

Uhh how about the Skyward Strike lol. Works for Marth.

Sorry but don't do this. Not even to your own threads JJ. That's not the way it works

Hmmm I would have loved to see Link use a heavy Skyward Strike or the final blow

 

[Mellow Ezlo]

I think it should show off something new to the Zelda series, like a loftwing or Skyward Strike. More realistically, I'd say loftwing (Skyward Strike could just replace the bow as a charged 'B' attack).

The only thing that's replaceable is the side B action, the boomerang

They could replace that with the Beetle, and have it control similar to Snake's side 'B' attack (minus the explosion)

 

[caleb11roy]

I think if he has 0% he should shoot skyward beams out of his sword. For his final smash his loft wing should fly back and forth across the screen striking all in it's path. make like 3-4 passes.

On a side note they should include a Chain Chomp as an Item (or a Final Smash for Mario or something)

 

[MattMVS7]

I think his Final Smash would obviously be from the final battle with Demise. He would charge his sword up with lightning and stab his sword into the ground, sending an immense electrical shockwave through the ground, killing multiple opponents.

 

[ChainLink15]

I feel like the best final smash for SS link would be something to do with the skyward strike, but it would be cool to have something with the loftwing.

honestly i hope they dont go with links skyward sword design again because i thought he looked kind of weird in that game and no im not talking about the graphics just the way they designed his character although the graphics didnt really woo me either
