Waifu Warriors: Featuring Link from the Legend of Zelda series! Now on New 3DS WOAH!

[TomGuycott]

Two weapons come to mind when I think of Saria being playable, and in my mind she still has a chance because of it (if slimmer given the Deku Staff's moveset, which probably would have worked well for her):

1. The Ocarina:
It's obvious given Zelda's Wind Waker and Sheik's harp that instruments have devastating power in this game. As Muts already said, an Ocarina would be fitting for her seeing as she's the one who teaches Link how to play it and gives him his first one. I see no problem with her ending up with the Ocarina of Time as her final weapon, either.

2. The Kokiri Sword:
This is a little less likely given the fact that the Deku Shield would probably go hand-in-hand with it, and Lana's Deku Staff already incorporates it in certain attacks. That being said, Saria is a Kokiri. The Kokiri sword is an important sword that was meant for the Kokiri, and is Young Link's ONLY sword in Ocarina of Time. I figure it would translate to a short-ranged, but fast sword for Saria to use.

3. The Deku Staff:
This might seem a bit out of place since Lana is clearly the wielder of it in the trailer, but something that has been happening more and more in recent Dynasty Warriors games is that weapons become interchangeable between certain characters. So what ends up happening is character models share animations and basically have the same attacks. This would be perhaps a LITTLE more difficult to achieve given the difference in height between Lana and Saria, but I think it's doable.


At any rate, perhaps during tonight's Direct we may get confirmation one way or the other.
