WanderingSkull's GraveDigging Tunes "Link: He Come To Town" 

Standard: Yeah, Link gets this with ease due to Pit's weaker standards. Pit has better speed, but the problem, his moves have horrid knockback and are slow on the damage build up. Link, while not quite as fast has more damning smashes. Plus, his sword gives him a range advantage upon close and his power builds up damage quickly and even someone without decent speed can struggle in a fight. Its nice to have speed, but when you're opponent has a decent amount of plenty of power behind his attacks with great knockback, it tends to win out here. EDGE: Link

Specials: Pit has horrible specials, his only decent one is the Upperdash Arm which has good knockback and decent power. Another problem with Pit is that all of his specials leave him open for follow up attacks due to the delay after every use. Seriously, if manage to dodge any of these attacks or obvious shields it basically allows you to lay the smack down on Pit. Link's are straight forward and all him to dominate the battle space, you have bombs to stun opponents or do some damage, the arrows which have great range and power behind them, the gale boomerang which brings an opponent to you and allows for you to set-up some serious damage and build it up. And Spin Attack which is an effective recovery move and can deal damage. Pit is just outmatched here and those delays in his attacks leave him wide open for retaliation. EDGE: Link

Final Smash: Once again, Link's simple yet effective Triforce Slash beats out the shiny new special that Pit has and to be honest, Pit's Brawl Final Smash was way better. Pit's new one is pretty normal to dodge and you might get a few hits in or even a KO, if you're lucky. Triforce Slash is fast as hell, captures you thus preventing you from moving, deals like 50-60 damage and has the chance of KOing anyone who has above 25-30 damage. Plus, once you get launched by that amazing knockback, you won't be able to move and promises a KO. EDGE: Link

Deadliest Warrior: Link- I may have a bit bias on my part due to the fact that Link has remained my main since the first SSB I played. One of the reasons is that he's super effective against just about anyone he faces. His standards are brutal when it comes to damage and knock back, those specials offer variety and can confuse an opponent as he or she tries to dodge only to be nailed by another attack. Pit is an overall weak character who lacks any real variety and his attacks always leave him open. His knock back is horrid and his damage is mediocre at best. Link's simple yet effective style works in any situation and will overcome Pit as the latter struggles to maintain his life. At a ranged game, Pit is screwed and at close he's weak. The x-factors speak for themselves, Link is the victor.
