Remake It! Zelda's Smash Moveset

This is Remake It! Where we take another look at characters in Smash Bros. whose fighter designs have aged poorly, wandered too far out-of-character, or could otherwise benefit from a revisit, then theorycraft what a reworked and improved version of their moveset, playstyle, and other details might look like!
Up this time is a fighter who has embodied multiple characters across Nintendo's history...with a moveset that hasn't. We've had three different versions of Zelda take up the mantle in Smash, but with one shared moveset that's seen minimal changes, has been showing its age, doesn't tap into the character's legacy much beyond Ocarina of Time (and one move from Spirit Tracks), and...hasn't been very strong competitively ever. It's led to a handful of fans hoping Zelda can get a rework for the next Smash game that'll change that!
But what if I told you the newest Zelda actually gives us a means to address all of this? With the right changes to her moves, and an overhauled set of specials that emphasize her talent for time magic, we can turn what was once an underwhelming design into something fresh and exciting without abandoning the current moveset's strong points! Watch and see how.

I think there should be an alternate costume that has her long-hair look from Breath of the Wild for those who prefer it. Her short-hair look in Tears of the Kingdom is an important visual cue to represent her development, but I think the option of using her old look would be nice. Bayonetta has her look from her first game, yet the default look used in marketing for Smash 4/Ultimate showed her appearance in Bayonetta 2 which was her latest game at the time. Zelda should get the same treatment in my opinion.

Victory screen ideas: 1. Zelda puts her hands close together and conjures a small ball of light magic between them. She focuses on it before letting it burst in a firework-like shower of light, a small smile on her face at the party trick. 2. Zelda summons a Memory Phantom and begins intently studying the apparition, looking over the individual segments and designs with a mixture of joyous curiousity and deep concentration. 3. Purah Pad in hand, Zelda lifts it up to her face and takes pictures of unseen subjects off-screen. Realising the situation though, she lowers it down and blushes, squeaking out "Forgive me" for her excitement getting the better of her. Bonus victory quotes: Link: "Remember Link. There's a fine line between courage and recklessness." Ganondorf: "I will never let you claim Hyrule!" Sheik: "You honour the Sheikah well." Young/Toon Link: "Oh dear! Did I do this to you Link?" (Mistakenly thinks her Recall caused Link to become Young/Toon) Rauru: "My apologies Rauru, but I claim this victory."

This version feels like a Rivals of Aether character with her huge emphasis on stage control and planning, which I think fits the Triforce of Wisdom wielder. I believe that aspect is essential and is left out of her current moveset, which is kinda spammy.

@JacobPDeIiNoNi 2 ай бұрын

Zelda’s entire gameplan is based around stage control, what do you mean it’s left out??? It’s a lot more simple than what’s proposed here but her gameplan kind of revolves around phantom which is still a stage control and setup move. These changes give more variety to HOW she controls the stage but it was definitely always part of her design.

@CaptBlock Ай бұрын

@@JacobPDeIiNoNi The Phantom is basically a charged projectile, her moveset doesn't have any way to interact with it.

@JacobPDeIiNoNi Ай бұрын

@@CaptBlock I mean it doesn’t have directly coded interactions like what is proposed in this video and while I think those would be cool and better, phantom is definitely more interesting than a standard charged projectile just by virtue of having a delay. That alone gives it some interaction potential with the rest of her moveset (e.g. something simple you can do is set a phantom on ledge and go offstage with up b 1 to knock them up into it. Those sorts of setups are impossible with charge shot, shadow ball, etc.)

Excellent job on this. I don't remember if I mentioned this before, but what I love the most about your Remake It! movesets are how you try to strike a good balance of invoking new elements to better embody the character themselves while retaining the good of what made their Smash counterpart who they are. A lot of fan movesets usually discard the latter and completely overall a character purely for the sake of additional fan service, but I love how you try to respect their Smash past and not make changes that are too alienating for people who're used to their movesets.

A little tidbit I want to add to the neutral special: the projectile follows the _original path_ of the projectile, as well any properties/modifications that affected it. Things like items that fall off of ledges would jump back up. Previously reflected projectiles follow the path they took as they were reflected. I was originally thinking of Recall as a special counter tailored to projectiles, but I still like how it was executed here too.

I do definitely think Zelda’s design will be updated to her TotK design since Link is already using a Wild Era design & Ganondorf’s is too popular to ignore. That said, I still feel like they could keep the ideas of the old specials with the excuse of drawing power from the dragons of this Zelda variant’s Hyrule (as well as Recall for her Up B). But I do like the ideas you brought forward to more heavily rework the character.

If you do Peach.... well, not sure if this will have an influence on things, but I always sorts viewed Peach as someone that was powerful, but... slow-witted. She's smart, but... just not high reaction time unless empowered by something else. Which honestly fits with a ruler. I mean, sure, she's taken part in sports, but those often include simple actions to focus upon. She definitely has powerful magics. Some games showcase this more than others. They're just often not highly specialized towards combat. Heck, some games have them as sealing/unsealing magic. I mean, she did create the hidden room she frequented in N64's version. Then again, I'm guessing there's a decent chance of also including things from Peach Showtime. Though, most of the gameplay there were her being empowered by another. Same goes for super princess peach, now that I think about it. ....honestly, I have no idea how you'd revamp her specifically. There's many pathways to take her moveset in. And to do so in such a way that feels true to her character? That is HARD.o_O Best of luck.

@Dragoryu3000 2 ай бұрын

I do think there could be more references to pre-BotW Zeldas, but besides that, I really like how cohesive this moveset is. And those smash attacks are actually similar to an idea I had, though it was for Ganondorf rather than Zelda (darkness or malice/gloom forming the Spaceworld sword for forward smash, trident for up smash, and Wind Waker swords for down smash).

When it comes to Zelda's current moveset, I never agreed with the notion that it was "outdated" or really a problem, since given her character being the mortal reincarnation of Hylia herself it would make sense for her to use the three golden goddesses in her moveset. It's literally become part of her character now. That being said, they should revamped to function differently (minus Farore's Wind), I also find it weird that light isn't associated with her moveset despite it being her most ironic attribute, I think Light Ball should replace Dins (I don't they all of them should be on the same button, as UAir could just be Dins) since she could charge up a ball of light energy that stuns opponents and launches them far when the stun ends, for a slow character having a move that halts momentum is key and fits with Zelda's "wise" nature, she'd naturally want to find a way around someone's character.

My preferred Zelda moveset (and Link fore that matter) is a composite version where Zelda has all abilities from her past lives. Her sword from TP, Toon Zelda's phantoms, her runes from the Sheikah Slate, etc. Up B and Final Smash are fine as is, but a moveset like this can actually use different Zeldas as skins instead of just palette swaps.

And man, how much she changed since Ultimate released nearly 6 years ago.

Alternate Non-Cinematic Final Smash: Zelda concentrates her sealing magic and command grabs an enemy, and makes a giant Botw-like ball of light to multihit the enemy, and any other fighters who enter the seal as the ball grows over time. After about 5 seconds, the ball implodes upon itself and the fighters trapped within are spiked downward, or disappear completely if at a high enough percent. Cuz holy crap that ending was crazy

As some who doesn't play a lot of Zelda, but really doesn't like fighting her, I'm interested to see what you've got for her. Hopefully something that will keep her out of bottom tier. Thoughts: Recall and Time Arrow seem like the big highlights here, the former for being a seemingly less annoying version of her old Neutral-B that allows for interesting interactions, and the later for just being a cool projectile that reminds me of traditional fighting games.

As for new special moves there is Hyper Voice, Disarming Voice, Echoed Voice, Dazzing Gleam, Play Rough, Draining Kiss and maybe Moonblast. Also think Jigglypuff Sing move should get a buff by making it like Hero’s Snooze.

Also, one thing that I would do in the next Smash is to replace all counters with something else, but any character that had a counter, would activate it by perfect shielding (so Shulk's Vision, for example, would now be a Perfect Shield instead of a Down+B). In Link's case, he could do a Flurry Rush when perfect shielding.

I honestly think you should tackle more of the newer namco-era characters for remake it than the older HAL-era characters. Namco-era characters tend to be less straightforward and consistent than the HAL-era ones since the HAL-era ones have much more defined archetypes and are easier to understand (like samus being a zoner or donkey kong being a grappler, for example). Little mac is supposed to be a grounded bait-and-punish rushdown character but hes super fast and has super armor on his smash attacks (basically the opposite of how punch out actually is), every move min min does is a disjointed projectile hitbox that you cant really get past, belmonts being so reliant on far-range distances managed to piss off a bunch of people at launch, etc etc. There are some namco-era characters that are actually fine (byleth, ryu/ken, palutena to name a few) but the way they design characters feels like it needs more reconsideration more than the design philosophies of 64 and melee.

@@SquidlyPoli1 I don't think "pissing a bunch of people off at launch" is really a fair knock against the Belmonts though, you could say that about like half of the zoners. I think a lot of the Smash 4 and Ultimate characters are fine actually, and there are examples that could be mentioned. That said, your description rings pretty strongly of Bowser Jr. to me. Like, what does he do? He has unique moves that do unique things sure, like everyone else, but he doesn't have a "thing". One of the bodies (said body being the Clown Car) taking less damage? That can't be it, since that's such a small mechanic in the grand scheme of things. IMO, Little Mac and Min Min do have clearly defined playstyles, SO clearly defined that they end up being one-dimensional and don't fit right with the game, they're poorly executed. I guess a character like Villager also feels pretty messy, but that makes sense for him given that his moveset *is* about randomly pulling out everyday tools.

Your remakes are always very interesting. Personally I kinda like how they didn’t just use the newest Zelda in Ultimate, to add variety with Link being BoTW. That being said a chronomancer sounds very interesting and unique. In terms of remakes, I’m definitely not on the side of “cut half the roster so everyone’s improved,” because I believe some characters are fine, but I definitely wouldn’t mind having less characters added so the old ones are better. Heck. I’m pretty sure Sakurai said that if the next smash game has any cuts, it’s really only going to be characters that are less popular, so I’m not expecting too many, if any. That being said I’m looking forward to more remake ideas, as I really enjoyed Sonic’s and Ganondorf’s, even if think that Ganondorf should have kept the sword somewhat, being a mix of physicals, heavy sword hits and quick trident hits.

I still think you're leaning way too hard into the Wild games with these Zelda series reworks. Ideally a character should represent their entire history, not just their most recent game. One thing I would change from your proposal is I'd make it so the stuff she calls in from other Zeldas don't use the time magic. Instead, they're just naturally things she has. Another thing is that I'd make her down smash that Triforce floor attack from Twilight Princess and Hyrule Warriors. I'd also like her harp to be worked in somehow.

Thing is, TLoZ series has no consistently continous style, it changes a lot release to release. The Wild era is probably the closest the series has had to a consistent artstyle/character design. For the last ~6 years, this Link and this Zelda were them.

I really Love the a link between worlds Zelda thats my favorite design so I'm kinda bummed u scrapped it especially since TOTK zelda i find a little grating lol. It just has so much charisma. but i think your moveset is pretty great I like how you made it more technical and smart i guess.

@dinglepuss8594 2 ай бұрын

My idea for Zelda was to utilize the magic from a link to the past and between worlds since Links moveset doesnt bother using any of his magic I thought to just to have Zelda adopt those tools like Rosalina does with galaxies moves. I gave Zelda the Fire and Ice Rods for her neutral and side special. that would function similarly to LBW. a flame pillar that would travel across the stage and trap foes and pillars of Ice that were great for edge guards like Soras lightning but those would be the charged variants when uncharged they would be fairly standard but the fire could linger for a bit as a trap like in Zelda 1 and the ice could lower your opponents speed making them easier to handle. she would keep the phantom since its such a strong tool and I thought about makeing the phantoms slash stronger if it interacts with the fire rods flames. and for her up special I gave her the cane of Somaria. she could make a platform for herself if on the air or if on stage could use it as a block for more stage control strategies. opponents would have to interact with the block kinda like steves blocks but only one of them. and in that time zelda could make her move but the risk is that you cant use it to recover if its on the ground so you have to destroy it which you could only do on the ground. And i thought about even making some of Zeldas Smash attacks the Medalians from ALTTP if charged kinda like how your black mage move set does. Its pretty messy but if u get the chance. tell me what u think whether its negative or positive. I tried to make the design somewhat cohesive. I wonder if theres a way to make Zelda a high performing character and still be true to the calculating defensive play style.

The issue is that with Link using a Wild era design & Ganondorf almost certainly following suit, it'd be weird if Zelda was the sole exception. The whole "Zelda characters from different eras" thing was born from a compromise of the Triforce Trio not all being in the same game together since TP & BotW being too big to ignore. That's no longer an issue now.

This is a fun update, though, I'm gonna be honest, talking about this Zelda being smart when she is one of the least wise Zelda's canonically, is pretty funny to me. I mean, she shows almost zero acts of wisdom in her 2 games aside from sending Link to the Shrine of Ressurection while she went to seal Ganondorf. Aside from that, she almost only ever made mistakes and her sacrifice in Tears is basically a non-choice she was forced to make as a consequence of her (and Rauru's) leadership failures. Her plan to catch the fake Zelda is even what got Sonya killed and let Ganondorf get his hands on the secret stone. So it's pretty funny to me to claim this version of her is particularly wise. The height thing is also funny cause this isn't a particularly tall version of Zelda and few, if any, versions of Zelda have been so young they'd still be growing, as most women stop growing pretty quickly after reaching puberty, done by their early to mid teens.

I enjoy your Remake It! series and I think you have a good grasp on making updates, but this one left me with some very mixed feelings, and I can't help but feel that it missed the mark. I'll try to articulate why, but just keep in mind that these are my opinions, so I'm far from an authority on this subject. Even before you confirmed it, I got the sense that the callbacks to other Zeldas in this one's moveset was done out of a sense of obligation, as they felt out of place compared to the rest of the moveset. And while I understand that functionally the moveset isn't all THAT different, even if it's definitely more complex given her specials, it still feels like I'd be playing a different character altogether. My biggest sticking point with this one relates to that, actually: this is a cool concept, but it doesn't feel like Zelda. I don't know how many others will agree with me on this point, but I feel that trying to make her represent only one game is missing the point of who Zelda is. I feel she works better as a legacy character, one who embodies different parts of the games she's appeared in, and yet much like Tears of the Kingdom itself, this moveset feels like it's trying to shove the other games aside to focus solely on one aspect of her. I think if we were to get a character who embodies Tears of the Kingdom, it'd be better to give that to Rauru instead of overhauling Zelda both mechanically and aesthetically out of a sense of recency bias.

@Neoxon619 2 ай бұрын

In terms of Zelda getting updated aesthetically, it’s probably unavoidable. If Link & Ganondorf are both getting Wild Era designs, it doesn’t make sense to have Zelda be the odd one out. As for her mechanics, I personally think they don’t need to go super-far to change her.

I like BotW/TotK-Zelda as much as the next guy, but I'd really miss the design Smash Ultimate uses. It's hands down my favourite look for Zelda out of any game including her home series. Regardless of that, I love the take on her. Finally taking some inspiration from the character that isn't just generic magic is much apprechiated. Though I am of the opinion that we need more mage-characters in Smash, even if to just fit that niche of magic users. Kamek and Magolor would come to mind.

While I love this as a Zelda main, I still want a form change for her, perhaps taunt combination that allows her to go into the background of space and time and “switching” into idk Tariko controlling him from the future.

First off, SHE SHOOTS AN ARROW INTO THE FUTURE. THAT IS DOPE. Secondly... (spoilers below) I find it quite funny how you let Zelda get control of the Light Dragon for her Final Smash, when in my personal concept for how ToTK Ganondorf would play in Smash, I did the same with the Demon Dragon.

I love the new specials, especially Light Arrow, but I was a little confused by neutral b being both a regular reflector & sending Zelda’s own projectiles back in time? It might be better to just keep it as a pure reflector, but she can also reflect her own projectiles, so she’ll be bouncing light arrows & phantoms across the stage. Yeah that takes away the timey-wimey aspects which justified using the TOTK design but honestly? Not every Zelda character needs to be in their BOTW/TOTK design, LTTP is one of the most iconic games in the series that otherwise doesn’t get represented in Smash at all, so I’m fine with Zelda keeping that appearance while taking a few moves from other incarnations. Also, just because everyone in Hyrule Warriors has a sword doesn’t mean everyone in Smash has to lol
