Zelda (Super Smash Flash 2)

Zelda is a starter character in Super Smash Flash 2. Her Final Smash is the Light Arrow. She can transform into Sheik. Her sprites in SSF2 are custom made and much like the case of, are based on her appearance in the game The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess. Her move set is taken directly from Super Smash Bros. Brawl.

Zelda is currently ranked 17th on the current tier list (the highest ranking The Legend of Zelda character). Zelda has transcendent priority in a number of her attacks and strong kill moves in all of her smash attacks, the forward and back aerial versions of Lightning Kick, her up aerial and dash attack. Zelda has arguably one of the best punish games in the current demo. She has a controllable projectile in Din's Fire and can reflect projectiles with Nayru's Love. With this she can make her opponent approach her and stop their approach with Naryu's Love, neutral aerial, back aerial, forward aerial and forward smash. She has one of the best edgeguarding options in the game and she is hard to edge guard due to her good recovery options.

However, Zelda suffers from poor mobility with fast characters like and  being able to rush her down. Most of her kill moves can be Smash D.I.'ed out of. She is tall which makes her easy to hit combined with her slow falling speed and lightweight makes her easy to KO both vertically and horizontally. She also has poor combo ability due to the high knockback that her attacks give off. Her cons are on par with her pros which ranks Zelda close to the middle.
