Matchup Tips and Strategies
When playing Young Link against Ridley, leverage your projectile game to keep him at bay, as his large hitbox makes it difficult for him to dodge your neutral B. Use your boomerang and bombs to control space and force Ridley into unfavorable positions, especially when he attempts to approach. Be mindful of Ridley’s powerful aerial attacks and his ability to zone you with his tail, so try to stay grounded and utilize your quick dashes and short hops to evade. If you can get Ridley off-stage, capitalize on his recovery with your up B to secure early KOs, as he struggles against edge-guarding due to his predictable recovery trajectory.
