The DARK Secret of Revali’s Death… (Breath of The Wild) 

Is Revali unfairly treated? Keep up to date here! - twitter.com/Hyrule_101

The champions ballad shows that Revali was training himself to the point of pain, constantly failing to perfect his ability. He may not be the nicest champion, but he is one of the most dedicated.

This coupled with the fact that each of the Devine Beasts Themes have the SOS signal in it, showing the Champions were sending out distress signals knowing they were going to die, but Revali's SOS starts much later than the other Champions' and is much more frantic once it does start, is absolutely heartbreaking... He was so sure of himself despite being at a huge disadvantage that he waited until almost the end to call for help shows just how terrifying the situation really was to him.

You know when the fight starts and Revali mentions that windblight ganon "plays dirty"? I think this may be what he was referring to. Nullifying all of Revali's strengths and hitting him with invisible and unpredictable attacks, of course he'd feel like the fight was unfair.

Also, anyone noticed that the Windblight is technically, the weakest of them all? However the Windblight in Hyrule Warriors has two canons when in botw, he only has one. And Revali lasted his fight the longest. Which means, even in that situation, he still managed to do a decent damage to Windblight. And that’s why Windblight is an easy boss.

I do love Revali. Even before something about him was pointed out to me, but once I realised this particular fact about him, I had so much more respect for him. Revali is the only one of the champions to actually work hard and make his champion ability. In Mipha's diary, she talks about healing Link when he was just a child and the way she talks about healing magic makes it seem like something thats not unheard of. Rare maybe, but not something unknown, especially by the Zora. So it's safe to say it's something she inherited or was born with. Yunobo has Daruk's protection and is said by the chief that Yunobo is a decendant of Daruk so it's most likely something passed down through bloodline. While much isn't said about Urbosa's fury, in Age of Calamity Riju also has electric abilities. With both of them being chiefs, maybe the thunder helm has something to do with it. That's just a theory though. In Revali's diary, he talks about having a dream about creating an updraft from nothing and from that decided to work and push his limits until it becomes a reality. In the Champions' Ballad DLC memory we even see him struggling to perfect it but still not giving up. He straight up just made Revali's gale out of nothing but hard work and persistance while the other champions just had their ablities and for that, I think he deserves some praise.

Also, there was a video about the Divine Beasts sending out morse code signals. Revali was the last one to send out his distress signal in comparison to the others.

This is why I believe the Champion’s Ballad was really to help the spirits of the champions heal from the trauma, anger and hopelessness during their battles with their respective blights so they can move on to the afterlife. During each battle with the blights, Link fights with the very weapons they used in their confrontation.

If you add the reason for Revali's pettiness and the SOS signal into all this, it makes Revali's story even more tragic. A personal theory of mine is that Revali acts so petty is because he needed to work to get where he was. It's implied (at least it was to me) that all the other Champions were born with their powers and born into positions of power. Revali wasn't. We see him struggling to master Revali's Gale in The Champion's Ballad and beating himself up over failing. He had to work his feathers off to become a Champion, and all Link had to do was pull a sword out of a rock. Imagine how crushing that was for him to have all his work be for nothing. Anyone would feel jealous or resentful if that happened to them. And things only get worse when it comes to the SOS signal. While the other Champions immediately sent out their SOS signals, Revali held out long enough to see (or rather, feel, since he couldn't see anything) the true power of what he was fighting against. Unlike the other three SOS signals, Revali's SOS isn't masked by the music. It's out there, easy to hear because it's the signal of someone he knows that he's about to die.

Ravali is a necessary character, otherwise everyone would be happy happy friendly friendship which is boring and very unrealistic.

I feel like all the Blights hard-countered the Champions they faced. Mipha is more of a support/healer-type and Water-Blight not only has high damage, but also super long reach, meaning she probably couldn't keep up the healing even when she gained distance. Urbosa is said to be a strong warrior, so she's prolly very durable and strong, but Thunder-Bright was just too fast. It most likely didn't do much damage, but slowly chipped away at her, whilst dodgeing all of her attacks. Daruk just got rekt completely by the fact the Fire-Blight's shield can only be destroyed by Bombs, which he didn't have.

I want to add this severely overlooked point. It's one thing that it's dark and he cannot see. It's another thing that it's dark and it's RAINING. Rito feathers are good for insulation but what happens when it's wet? Birds are extremely sensitive to body temperature changes and wet feathers do not make easy flight. Poor thing is soaked through, can't see, hampered flight abilities and fumbling. He's pretty much screwed here right from the start. He wasn't 'winging it' he was getting his ass completely thrashed here (Conveniently the rain stopped when teba arrived...)

Another thing to remember about Rivail is, in addition to everything that was said in the video and in the other comments, is that Rivali is around Links age. He’s a teenager. And since everyone else in the champions has inherit gifts/an awesome sword effectively given to them on a silver platter while Rivail has worked for his abilities… the guy is trying to prove his worth to everyone. Quite possibly himself included. He might not have the best attitude, but it might be how he hides his pain, his fears of being inferior to the rest of the champions.

I thought you were gonna talk about how he may not have had his Eagle's bow in the fight, as when you fight Windblight in the "memory realm", in a fight which supposedly replicates what the champions had to go through, you don't have it either. And it being one of the best bows in the game, it was Revali's best weapon by far. On top of that, the bows that the game gives you for the fight are kinda mediocre, so, if Revali had those same weapons, he was totally unprepared

Since it's the first Revali video I found, that isn't years old, I decided to put my thoughts here. I really liked his character in botw. If all the champions were simple, happy friends the story would be kinda blant. The other 3 were constantly extra supportive of Link, (Daruk was even his friend and Mipha had a crush on him) and I think Revali noticed that and it made him even more determined to be the one that holds Link accountable and demands diligent work. Also maybe it added to his jelousy cause he had to archive everything completly alone? As I said somwhere down the comments I have noticed, he's much nicer to other champions in the playthrough than in the cutscenes. For example, he praises Mipha quite a lot and when I played with him and Daruk he said something like ,,I don't need any h- I mean thanks Daruk" witch shows he works on himself at least a bit and isn't an ashole intentionaly. Like lots of people have pointed out he was the only champion that didn't have magical powers, neither was born with a title/in a position of power, that explains why he's mad that Link is fighting Gannon beacuse of fate. It's not just jelousy, he really cares about his village and I can't imagine that someone like Revali, who relies on nobody but himself his whole life, would trust anybody easliy with that task. He was also pretty young ( somwhere around Mipha's/Link's and Zelda's age according to Urbosa's dairy, different hyrule races age differently tho) witch absolutely doesn't excuse his actions towards others but it's definitely different than grown man being petty to much younger teen. Urbosa and Daruk seem to be in their maximum potential years but I can't help thinking he and Mipha could develop their abilities even more if they lived. I also think it's interesting that because of the cockiness you would take Revali for someone who dreams of being worshiped yet when the elder proposed him a statue he chosed a flight range where he could perfect his abilities even further instead. (it was actually wholesome Daruk who has built a statue of himseld witch I found funny) I could write some more but it's quite long. Anyways, I think Revali is the most complex champion and obviously not everyone has to like him like I do, but people who hate him with passion seem very friagle & noimmune to few words of criticism. Thanks for the great video Imma gonna give u a sub

As a Revali fan, this is absolutely heartbreaking to think about but I'm glad you put out the video to make everyone warm up to our cocky birb boy just a bit more TwT

Revali also held out the longest of all the champions during Ganon's attack. This is evidenced by the SOS hidden in his divine beast's theme being far later than the SOS in the other themes, and how he held on the longest during Age of Calamity.

Revali's one of my favorite Champions and I'm legitimately heartbroken after seeing this.😢💔 I had always thought he had it bad after death, being stuck in Vah Medoh knowing that he failed, but THIS!? I think I'd briefly known that the Rito have poor night vision, but it never really hit me until now.

love revali, and his theme music is so romantic. yet he does have the most tragic death/past. all the other champions had family, and were remembered with statues, whereas Revali got... a ledge. no spouse, no kids, and seemingly no friends? and on top with that bit where his music has the SOS morse code in it, it's just sad to think about

I just realised that the blights all have striking similarities to the champions like water blight has a spear just like mipha

Also, although not confirmed in main botw timeline, the blights were much stronger back then. Windblight had two cannons and was much faster, bigger and stronger with his attacks. Perhaps the blights were stronger during the calamity but a hundred years of time weakened them to the point of them being former shells of the beasts they were before, leaving link to easily despatch them.

Also I consider Mipha to be the Most Disadvantaged, during her Fight with Ice Effects freezing over her Water based Attacks considering the Zora's seemingly Weakness to Ice, as shown in basicly every Major Title in an Area where there is either No water for her to use her Swimming Skills or the Direct Danger of Freezing over, like so many of her Kin have

I’ve always sympathized with revali, I mean he worked his entire life to master archery and his ability revalis gale, and then out of nowhere some random kid is chosen and he’s just meant for backup, I would be pissed, also I think revali is kinda lonely

lol didn't know ritos had bad night vision

Wonder how differently things would have gone for Revali if it was daytime during their fight in botw. I could very well see him winning against the blight. Maybe he’d be able to use the divine beast making the calamity way less tragic Also just noticed the pun of the title. Love it!

Another thing to consider regarding seeing the blights? Even without worse night vision, Revali would have had a harder time seeing Wind Blight. Water Blight is indoors in a well lit room within Vah Ruta. Thunder Blight is also in a well lit room within Vah Naboris, not to mention the electricity lighting things up even better. And Vah Rudania? Yeah, outdoors... But in a volcano, lit up by the lava and magma. Meanwhile, Vah Medoh? In the sky, outdoors. No lights from the divine beast, no sunlight, being in the sky would even mean less moonlight, potentially having clouds to make it effectively like fog, as is the case during the Champion's Ballad rematch with Wind Blight. In terms of visuals, even for us as Link, Wind Blight's fight is visually darker and harder to see. Obviously not as hard as it would be in real life, and with poor night vision its even worse. Revali may as well have been fighting blind. You want to simulate it? Do the fight yourself, blindfolded. Even then, we have the benefit of being able to try an infinite amount of times until we can determine things from sound. That being said, its fitting for Revali. The most confident champion, cocky, believing himself to be better than everyone, even the chosen hero, ending up with what would be a fight tailored to be insanely difficult for him, a fight that only he could manage (until Link got a paraglider) yet with an added twist that impacts him the most.

I just realized -- the Rito having poor night vision reminds me of another group of feathery friends with the same defect: the Loftwings! Even though the Rito were descended from the Zora in the Wind Waker, is it possible that they're rewriting it so that the Rito are the descendants of the Loftwings?

I always thought Revali was kind of relatable, the reason people hate so much on him is, that they see their own weaknesses and uncontrolled hateful emotions reflected in him. He is just as full of envy as all of us, and at the end he still takes his chance to realize how he mistreated who he'd thought of as his competitor. I think it's also easier to understand him when you take into consideration that link never talked to him, and by that wasn't able to communicate freely. There's a lot we can learn from Revalis mistakes and i think that is what makes him such a unique character, even if he seems like your average envy filled, uppish and overall mean losing competitor. Id also like to thank you for featuring my snack in this video, hear you next time! PS: congrats mate!

I love how passive aggressive you were at the end! “Maybe now you will have sympathy for him”

I laughed way too hard when u said “finger licking good” 🤣 and happy 1 year anniversary to Mr.Hyrule Gamer and Mother Hyrule ❤️

the other reason Revali had a lower chance is cause he can run out of arrows

As a lancer character type, I think Revali gets a lot of undeserved hate, and I think some of this hate also spills over from the undeserved scorn that the race as a whole received.

Completely missed one other detail. You know when it's dark, and someone suddenly switches the light on and you're blinded for a few seconds? Yeah, now think about Windblight's cannon. The other blights all have constant glows from their weapons. But Windblight would just be low light, then sudden flashes of light. Even the few continuously glowy bits on Windblight would be harder to spot for anyway simply because of those bright flashes. It's also the kind of thin where night vision doesn't help you much, because the better your night vision is, the more the blast blinds you.

I actually had no idea that Rito night vision was so bad. But it does explain something about the Windblight battle in the Champions Ballad that I had never put much thought into (beyond thinking it was there just for a different experience). The fog in that fight so heavily obscures everything that I actually ran off the edge at first because I couldn’t see. If that is even close to the situation that Revali had to deal with then I’m not surprised he wound up losing. Especially since archery depends on having a clean line of sight to your target and Windblight’s only real weak spot is his eye.

What's worse about all this is the implication that Ganon specifically made the blights to counter each champion individually and used similar weapons as a counter. He wanted the champions to lose in the worst way possible, invalidating their own strengths. Revali killed himself to be as good as he was at air combat and was beaten by a creature that could effortlessly levitate Daruk ancestral protection was easily replicated by Fireblight and he was unable to do anything about it. Mipha was a excellent fighter as well as a expert swimmer but that was meaningless against waterblight who not only outranged her, but could spear her out of the water. Urbosa straight up couldn't keep up with Thunderblight who used underhanded tactics she couldn't counter and her own element against her. Everything that made each champion special was completely invalidated by Ganon's own "champions."

Did someone say Revali? I'm liking this regardless of the content.

Maybe that's why Revalis SOS is later? If he can't see he may have not noticed he was under attacked until a little bit later and/or if the champions had to get to the terminal maybe he had trouble seeing it or getting to it because that disadvantage of not being able to see attacks to dodge etc. And yes congratulations on your anniversary:D!!!

Happy One Year, Babi, and thanks for bringing justice to my favourite Bird 😍💜

TBH. Revali was my favorite champion. I just like archers and birds, yeah his personality wasn't the best but still I liked him

The blights added a disadvantage to all the fights though. Mipha had to deal with ice limiting her water mobility. Daruk had to deal with explosive ranged attacks. Urbosa had to deal with metal conducting her lightning and directing it at her. And Revali had the darkness limiting his vision.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't Revali the only champion who isn't a leader of his people? Urbsosa was the head of the Gurudo, Darunia was leading the Goron, and Mifa was the princess of the Zora. As far as I'm aware, Revali is the only one who was just an regular citizen. It's probably the reason he has it especially out for Link. Link, for the most part, is just a skilled knight making Link the most similar to Revali. Difference between them, other than species, is one happens to be the incarnation of the hero

Omg this is so terrifying... I've always loved Revali from the beginning and this is so heartbreaking

I noticed in Age of Calamity what changed the storyline is when impa motivated zelda to helped the champions in the end they actually managed to save the champions

I also like to think that in spite all of this, he held on to the longest due to that SOS signal you can hear in Divine Beast Themes. In his, it is introduced the latest, while other Champions start calling almost immediately.

wow for just a few seconds I actually felt appreciated as a revali fan 😂

I really liked Revali from the get go, truly. I never thought of him as HATING Link, but rather I think he hated the never ending cycle that Link was a part of. Ganondorf and Link have been stuck in this endless loop for generations, reincarnated again and again to duel against each other, and each time Ganondorf reawakens, disaster falls on Hyrule. You can't honestly tell me Revali is the ONLY character in this series who has grown tired of this doomsday on repeat. He's ticked, and justifiably so, as nobody BUT Link can end it, and even then, it just begins anew all over again. I think he was just angry at the circumstances rather than the hero himself, and unfortunately that anger was taken out on the only person Revali could blame for it. To quote him directly from the original BOTW game "It seems that I have been tapped to merely assist you. All because you happen to have that little darkness-sealing sword on your back. I mean, it's just ... asinine." And from that line of his, I just assumed he was angry that he, along with everybody else, can only rely on one person to save the people they love, while they themselves are completely powerless against the imminent threat. I don't know. I just loved his perspective on the whole thing, I thought it was a much needed approach for some of these characters to question the function of the cycle, and get angry when there is seemingly no solution.

That explains why Revali waited so long to send out an SOS...

this game is so heart wrenching, terrifying and genuinely traumatic at times. trying to explain it to someone who hasnt played is so,,, difficult. thank you for this video, ive always loved revali just bc his lil attitude

It’s amazing how it’s been four years since this game came out and yet people still find out new stuff

i love revali. there's so much more than just a jerkish personality under those feathers, there's reasoning for his ego. and, this was an great video. i really enjoyed it

Rivali is awesome. He's a pompous ass and I think it's hilarious. Too bad he's blind at night. That must be why you need special training to fly Loftwings at night. Good video as always. Take care HG.

Never understood why people would dislike revali due to his tough attitude and slight rivalry with link. Always reminded me of falco's personality. He's one of my favorite champions next to mipha of course. Watching this makes me respect him alot more 💪🐦

Happy anniversary friend! Hope you have an amazing time! Thank you for the great video! I really enjoy diving deep into Zelda lore and discovering all of the details of my favorite series. Revali is definitely one of my favorite characters in the series, so this perspective of his death hit a little hard lol. I also have really bad eyesight, so imagining being in his place is just terrifying.

Revali's English voice actor Sean Chiplock said that when first recorded for Revali, he thought he was just a jerk. But after recording for Champion's Ballad DLC he wished he could go back with the knowledge he has now about Revali. Revali trained himself and pushed himself beyond his limits to get where he is in terms of skill. And none of the other characters see that. We saw Revali pushing himself through the wind and subsequently crashing to the ground but Zelda just arrives after the fact. We as the viewers have that information, but the other characters don't. On top of that, Revali is a staunch perfectionist. He didn't show off Revali's Gale until he could do it perfectly. Not well, not great, perfectly. I heard the phrase "it's not bragging if you actually do it" and that's a great way to encapsulate Revali. He doesn't boast about himself because he's arrogant, he's earned that right through constant effort and work. Bringing it back to Sean Chiplock's feelings on Revali, he said that, at least from his perspective as Revali's voice actor, part of Revali's issue with Link is that he didn't earn his position. Revali broke himself down and forced himself back up over and over again and earned the right to pilot Vah Medoh based entirely upon his own skill only to be made subordinate support to someone who was the "chosen one." I can't imagine what a kick in the teeth, or beak as it were, that would be to someone who spent so long working themselves to the bone for recognition. And Link has his own set of struggles, obviously. But Revali wasn't privy to them since they share the trait of not openly communicating their feelings. From Revali's perspective, all of the work that he put into himself and his tireless efforts to be the best could only gain him the role of support. I would have a chip on my shoulder too.

I feel the need to mention the primary reason why everyone lost: NO ONE HAD THEIR WEAPONS!!! in the MT Lenaru Cutscene no one has their weapons (except for Link) and they didn't have any time to get them before going to their divine Beasts. This is why the weapons are given to you by NPCs outside of the beasts and not found inside them. Now you could say that they were recovered from them but then I would ask you, HOW THE HECK WOULD ANYONE DO THAT?!? VAH RUDANIA IS SO HOT IT CAN SET PEOPLE WHO ARE IMMUNE TO FIRE ON FIRE, VAH NABORIS CAN SHOCK LIGHTING PROOF THINGS, VAH MEDOH LITERALLY DOESN'T EVEN EXIST AND VAH RUTA IS PROTECTED BY AN IMPENETRABLE FORCEFIELD! If anyone could get into those things they could definitely kill the blights before the player could. So yeah, all the Champions at the time would have been unarmed while fighting the blights. Regarding gameplay logic, Urbosa is the only one who ever stood a chance at winning

Bird boi Ravioli deserves more love-

recently this has been my go-to channel i just feel fascinated every time

This information makes me wonder a bit if maybe that's the reason why the only old Rito we see is Kaneli (I think that's how you spell it) the village elder. His appearance is obviously based off of an owl and he's only awake at night. If you talk to him during the day, you wake him up. Most owl species are either crepuscular (active in dawn and dusk) or nocturnal so their night vision is very good. I wonder if that applies to Kaneli who is the only Rito based off of an owl. (Unless Teba was based on a snowy owl but I'm pretty sure his appearance was based off a gyrfalcon.) Congrats on the anniversary with your lady btw.

I remember seeing that post! I figured that was where this video came from. I saw and was like "OH NO". It honestly made me feel guilty for giving Revali so much shade about losing to WindBlight, who is relatively easy for Link to beat. Glad to see this topic being given more publicity! Edit after I finished: "Our poor little chicken wing" caught me off guard. Also congrats on the one-year anniversary!

Plus, we have to consider that Link probably faced weaker blights than the Champions did since Zelda was holding Ganon back, kind of like the guardians losing part of their "consciousness" because Ganon wasn't in full control. Great video by the way ! I didn't know about Rito not having bad nightvision before seing it on Merlin's instagram, it's really changes the "Revali should have won the fight" conversation.

To be fair the blights were built to counter their respective champions. Thunderblight lightningfast so even Urbosa, who's amazing in close combat can't follow. Fireblight strong enough to break Daruks protection. Waterblight (as seen in AoC) can freeze the battlefield and takes Mipha out of her element. And well Windblight, with winds to deflect Revalis arrows and disturb his ability to fligh. Really the were in disadvantage all battle.

I must admit, I was never a big fan of Revali, but this video did make me feel bad for him. The additional difficulties he had during this battle was never something I considered, but... damn, there are so many. As soon as I saw the title, I immediately thought about how he's the only one of the champions who had no way of shielding attacks. It's super hard to use a shield in mid-air and it also completely stops you from using your bow and arrow, so of couse Revali didn't have one (Mipha also doesn't have a shield but she could use her spear to protect herself a little bit). And I never knew the rito have bad night vision. :( That's really unfortunate for him. Either way, great video as always!

The tale of Revali is a tragic one. From young, he had no parents, family or friends. He had to fend for himself. He trained day and night not to be the best, but to be admired by all of the Rito. His bitter attitude and Smug face derives from his hate for anyone and not opening up to others. His Efforts were in vain when A hylian served a higher role in defeating the Calamity. He was shocked and was in Disbelief. Finally at his last breaths of trying to defeat the Ganon with powers of wind. He was gone. His spirit will not leave until he is free and his goals are met. With the final arrow to The Dark Beast, his soul departs for new heights and eternal rest. His life was a depressing story and this is why RAVIOLI is the best champion

There's a lot that can be taken from AoC about exactly how each Blight was perfectly tailored to counter each Champion, and frankly, Wind Blight's advantage over Revali is just terrifying. Each of the fights go something like this; Mipha: A fish out of water. Water Blight freezes the water in the control chamber, eliminating Mipha's swimming abilities and attacks, while dangling from the ceiling far out of reach of Mipha's only weapen, her trident, while pummeling her with ice blocks and its own long-range spear. Urbosa: Speed vs Shield. It's made clear during her fight that Thunder Blight is completely immune to Urbosa's Fury as it simply teleports away from the attack. Urbosa is left to rely on her sword and shield combat style, which Thunder Blight easily overwhelms with its teleporting and lightning fast attacks from every possible angle. Daruk: Break the Protection. All Fire Blight had to do in this fight was whittle down Daruk's Protection and then land a few good blows. Daruk is simply too slow to land a hit on Blight and we actually see the moment Daruk's Protection breaks, right before the final blow. Revali: A bird in a cage. Revali is the only Champion that has the Divine Beast itself turn on him as Vah Medoh's force field is activated, trapping Revali inside and preventing his escape. Ironic as at this point Revali is the only Champion could have simply flown away to safety. Inside the cage Revali not only has to deal with his own poor vision, but also Wind Blight has the ability to completely knock him off balance by sending out mini tornadoes to stir up the wind currents. Not only has Revali got to first find the Blight in the darkness, he then has to take aim with his bow, which takes away his flight each time he tries to attack, while being blown around off course and having an anti-air gun firing flak at him. Then Revali's own weapon actually works against him - his bomb arrows. He's the only Champion that cannot get within striking distance of the blight otherwise he'd only end up blowing himself up with his own weapon. Not that he'd actually want to get too close seeing as birds have hollow skeletons and one single blow would have most definitely crushed him. Imagine you're a fighter pilot in WW1 flying a fragile wooden fighter plane and you're trying to eliminate an anti-aircraft gun that can see you in the dark, is constantly moving around while firing flak at you, during a hurricane, in complete darkness, inside a giant cage that keeps you within striking distance of the gun, and every time you fire your weapon your engine cuts out and you plummet hundreds of feet... That's essentially what Revali was dealing with.

2:11 I feel so bad for laughing Also congratulations

Shoutout to the Discord Family 💜

Dark windblight is like the illusory realm, and as someone who has been out at night away from major cities, it’s pitch black even in a full moon. So a night battle would have been difficult for most people

Revali is my favourite character and honestly is so sad what he went through

Yes. Finally my boy receiving the understanding he deserves.

Its sas that the champions with one of the more useful abilities suffered the worst death. I've always kinda liked him, since he uses a bow. I mean they could've just installed a couple floodlights, just in case there will be a battle that takes place at night. Come on shiekah. You surely have the technology to do that.

When the calamity first struck all of Gabon’s power was pretty much at its strongest and the blights weren’t of actually stood a chance against any of the four champions if it wasn’t for the fact the attack struck moments before and the blights were very durable and could take many blows from the champions. That’s why 100 years later when ganon is regaining his power after being awoken, they were so easy to defeat and also why during age of calamity they looked much strobgp

That's actually terrifying, the darkness. Imagine how scared he was, especially because his SOS comes later in Medoh's Theme, even in the dark he wasn't wanting to call before he knew it was too late

Each Champion was ELEMENTALLY in their element but the Blights used the champions strengths against them. Mipha is agile in water so WaterBlight froze the water, Urbosa was fast and agile but ThunderBlight was faster and used clones, Daruk has his shield but FireBlight was just much stronger, and Revali could create his own wind/updraft which no one could do until ThunderBlight kind if made his own in the reverse direction I believe. I believe Ganon was watching them through the Malice Eyes so when the Blights manifested, they already knew how to beat them.

Congrats on the one year anniversary! I remember when u two got together! Glad it's going good!

Revali has been my favorite champion. He worked so hard to get where he was, he wanted recognition for his deeds and felt jealous of people who he felt were given special attention for things (Link being a chosen one and such for example). He was the only real one had much character development in BOTW.

Surprised that it took as long as it did for the SOS beeping to go off in the Vah Medoh’s theme in comparison to the other Champions, despite having poor night vision. I guess he was willing to “wing it” despite the disadvantages, like maybe believing he could adapt and take him on. He was a warrior and warriors were trained to handle tough situations, at least that’s what I think Revali believes. What I admire is that he’s passionate about his heritage and skills and his dedication to his craft, without being born with an arsenal of powers, even though to the point of pain. Happy to hear more about Revali

Congrats on 1 year to Hyrule Gamer and Mother Hyrule! 🥳🎉🥳🎉 And may you have many more :)

Ah finally someone explained his death! Thank you!

Congrats on the one year! Just celebrated 3 with mine earlier this month. Here's to another year of videos and a love to inspire

Congrats on the anniversary HG!

JUSTICE FOR REVALI! He was the only champion that actually worked for his position as champion. Urbosa, Mipha, and Daruk all just had magic powers and Link was just some random soldier who pulled some dumb stick out of a rock. Revali trained hard to be the best rito archer, he trained hard to be able to create an updraft. He was just annoyed by the fact that he worked hard all his life to be ome a champion while the others seemed to have just been lucky.

i don't understand anyone disliking Revali so much. sure he's not the most "pleasant" character, but not everyone needs to be to be good. we're all so different from each other and i'd always prefer someone being completely honest with me in their actions, thoughts and words than pretending in any way with any thing. also, dude, horizontal video shorts!

congrats on the anniversary and what an amzing video :D

I love Revali so much and characters like him (eg Bakugo from BNHA). There just is always so much nuance that people always ALWAYS overlook, and this video just makes me love him even more. Thank you and to your partner for this video!

Revali is my favourite Champion. This made me very sad. 😢

I mean are the Ritos eyesight really worse than Link? Creating a champion says that the Ritos are essentially half bird half Hylian. It does say that they have bad night visions but if Hylians are the same as RL humans then their night vision is also not that great... compared to like actual birds like owls.

Revali got the short end of the stick, chicken wing will forever be in our hearts.

Eh doesn't give ravioli the excuse to be a d*** to link tho

Unpopular opinion but I actually like revali I know he’s a jerk but Zelda falco was still a cool character in my opinion

Congrats on the anniversary!

Wow! I never knew that the rito had bad night vision! Very interesting! Also happy 1 year anniversary to you and your partner!

I always wondered how Revali lost, and this theory sadly helps give an idea how it possibly happened. Revali seemed equal if not better than Link in weapons combat so on a level playing field theoretically he should have bested Wind Blight. Would be interesting to theorize how the other champions fell to the other blights.

First 💜✨

Happy anniversary hyrule gamer!

Within the fight of hyrule warriors, Revali and Link fight and his bomb arrows are scarily precise. So that might be something to say that Revali may of taught himself to be better acostumed to the night as he did also push the limits of Rito's aerial capabilities. However it's also cannon that Revali and Link never fought in Botw so idk

This isn’t really specific to Revali but Urbosa mentions in her diary that she hopes her and Daruk will be able to protect the others or smn, because they’re all so young. Just some food for thought that Zelda, Link and Mipha are all around like, what 17? And Revali is considered “young” by Urbosa and yet they’re all supposed to be Hyrules saviours.

Congratulations on your anniversary! 🎉

Sweet vid broseph! Very insightful!
