Super Smash Bros 4 Roster: Sword Masters Link, Toon Link, Marth, and Pit Duel it Out in New Game

Super Smash Bros 4 will see a lot of sword play in the upcoming game with characters such as Link, Toon Link, Marth, and Pit.

These sword wielding characters are known for their masterful swordsmanship in their individual games throughout the years, and their special moves involve powerful attacks that utilize their very skill.

Link is from the classic, Legend of Zelda series, while Toon Link is from The Legend of Zelda: Windwaker. Pit is known primarily from the Kid Icarus series which is popular in Japan and did not crossover to the U.S. until recent years. Marth is from the RPG Fire Emblem franchise. Again, that series was really popular in Japan, and did not come to the U.S. until about 10 years ago.
