Dark Link Duel is an Event Match in Super Smash Bros. Brawl. In this match, Link must face-off against Dark Link on the Bridge of Eldin stage. The event is very similiar to the Link's Adventure event match in Super Smash Bros. Melee; however, rather than using the standard percentage-based damage meter, the battle is fought using stamina. This event can be easily beaten by standing near one of the blast lines on either side and throwing Dark Link to death. Another way to beat the event, particularly in the Hard difficulty, is to use projectiles against Dark Link if necessary.
Note
Clearing this event on Hard difficulty unlocks the Hidden Mountain & Forest music track.
Strategies
- The best combo to use is a Gale Boomerang followed by a Chain Grab. If you are lucky, the boomerang will go through him twice, and your grab should inflict 20-30 damage. Keep in mind that once he gets above 50 damage, he gets tougher!
Trivia
- The Dark Link that the player faces isn't really Link's Dark Link alternate costume, it is just simply Link colored completely black.
