Why Link is TERRIFYING in Breath of the Wild! 

BotW Link, of course

Dark Link

Twilight Princess, obviously. He can turn into a wolf and has without a doubt the best companion in any Zelda game. Fi, Navi, and Tatl can go back home, Midna does all they can and more. She actually fights with him, and has a personality and history, unlike the others.

Botw Link

I'm torn between BOTW Link because he's awesome and TP Link becomes wolf transformation :P

Why does this not have more... in one point I will be proud of this comment's likes.

Daruk was in awe of link's goron-like strength.

Maybe that's why the gordons respect link so much

well link probbly wasn't really bracing then and he might of predicted it and stepped forward cause he didn't want to hurt daruks self-esteem

Bonus points if its a blood moon.

That is uhh...reasonable

Strength comes in different ways. Just because you can parry a thing doesn’t mean one can lift other things. Also.... Maybe he just doesn’t want to break the crate? It’s reasonable to think that he doesn’t break them for reasons in-game. Though, to come up with the why would be either cringy or hilarious!

@@gryphonsong4082 you do realize parrying doesn't really take strength but skill.

Lmao

It's made of a neutron star

I agree. I googled "is it just me or are lynels harder than ganon?"

I eat lynels for breakfast with branches and wooden bows, without armor pretty ez

Once you understand their attacks you’ll flurry rush them in no time.

guys lets be honest, when the white maned lynels aren´t attacking you they´re actually pretty cute, or is it just me?

@@giovanniperez940 good for you

That one dude oh that’s a relief 😅 when papa cone said he was getting milk, I thought he was gonna abandon me and the family, but I’m glad he’s safe with you.

dude yo------you what

that's what i always figured it was

I read a fic where somebody explained it as the sheer amount of malice lingering in the world causing nearly all material to be really frail. There's also the fact that higher quality material for weapons would likely be tucked away in hard to reach areas and also the idea that the more experienced craftsmen likely died over the years leaving us with novice and amature smiths and whatnot.

Tasanoki Ranoko that makes sense, considering we get our weapons from monsters, and some of the weapons are infact invented by monsters and descriptions themselves state that they are not very well made (the monster weapons at least) it also states that a lynel bow's string is so hard, you would have to be incredibly powerful to even pull it. Which link does, and he pulls it the same way he does any other bow. Besides considering we got these from monsters, its likely they have already been used a lot which is why they break faster, the models for the weapons and even the textures of each weapon suggests that the weapons have seen their fair share of usage, as the model and texture visibly shows scratches and damages and imperfections to the weapon.

ITS OVER NINE THOUSAND!!!!!!

true dat.

I burst out laughing when I saw that scene, almost spit out my water. I kept rewatching the scene multiple times and showed my brothers. I still cant believe what I saw.

I was legit shook he parry anything to save zelda

@@rheaprashant7163 i mean he almost died from a guardian shot because of saving zelda.

@@soraakahymn9443 He defeated a whole army before that shot, he was basically already dowm for the count.

Wait he did when

Just realised that with lynels

I guess it's more of a property of the weapons themselves, or of the world.

*mejic*

You must've never watched Kamen Rider.

* *M A J E K* *

*plot twist?*

Okay. This just made me giggle way too much

😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣

Hey, you can beat ganon with a stick if you want to, so ... boss music is justified. 🙄

*giornos theme*

Yep.

Link was seemingly just born with that gene where you never stop growing muscles but Hylians are apparently unable to ever look like anything other than twinks so that's why we don't see it.

hedgehog3180 what

I saw a theory about links bullet time being his champion ability, and that that was how he won. But rocket punching sounds better.

Some Acnh Girl did you even read

He can also run forever with whistle running, I wouldn't count it though because it's more of a glitch/exploit but then again it's been in the game for basically the beginning and Nintendo never bothered to fix it so maybe it is canon idk

@@Tunic_ whistling helps breathe? 🤔 lol

armor in real life at least isn't that heavy when you wear it

Also has a near bottomless pocket which can hold thousands of pounds and just runs around with it like it's nothing.

And also can sprint for 10 minutes at a time.

Link: -does a parry- Enemy: -Just red mist now.-

Life accurate Link would probably run up to Calamity Ganon and just swing his shield at him, killing Ganon immediately

Parrys do not deal damage to sheild

@T-sErIeS iS aWeSoMe ...WAT DID YOU SAY!!! StOp InSulTiNg The ALLMIGHTY BOOKOOOOOOOOOOOOO SHEULD

Genius

The peaceful Pineapple *cycle gets reset to 7 years* Link: hiyah, hut! (Translation: I did it, I saved the world!)

Also eat them and still fighting

And his entire wardrobe for some reason.... Now that's skill

so link is the dovahkiin

How about the fact that he can carry 999 pieces of meat thats probably like 30cm thick, or how about the gourmet meat which is probably 2 times as heavy as the prime

@@ivancheung2651 he prob haves a pocket portal or something..

Idk Ganon is pretty brave going up against link knowing all this 😂

Considering how Zelda has all three:

Yup now all he needs is more common sense to get the triforce of wisdom and become god

In some games, Link does get the Triforce of Power after killing Ganon, so in some cases, he *does* have both

It also makes perfect thematic sense for the guy who carries around (and is empowered by) the mystical embodiment of courage, to use parries as one of his signature and arguably one of his greatest techniques. Facing down a seemingly unstoppable or guaranteed fatal attack, and instead of dodging or blocking it, using perfect timing to turn the force back on the attacker. You'd have to remain perfectly calm and focused in the face of terrifying monsters to pull it off, which just screams Courage to me. That's just really cool design right there.

Which is even more awesome because he doesn't even have the Triforce of Courage in this! Only Zelda has it.

@@henrytanael I imagine that the Triforce of Courage works like the Triforce of Power in this sense, Ganondorf is a beast even without the Triforce of Power. But with it he is basically the embodiment of Power. Link, in all forms, is Courageous. So he is able to use the magic that is most associated with it, most likely a sort of body magic that allows him more survivability in dangerous environments, such as being able to tank being near lava at the cost of his health just draining instead of melting immediately, or being able to parry a Lynel without so much as a scratch to his health. But *with* the Triforce of Courage, he is able to access the full power of Courage...whatever that may be. Since we don't actually know what the power of Courage actually is we can only speculate.

@@Darkvalentine333 I like how you put that, like the triforce of courage gives him boundless strength if he has the courage to face the challenge without hesitation.

ILikeCatsDogsz YT BREAKING NEWS *VILLAGE BOY LESRNS TO JUMP, PEOPLE ALL AROUND HYRUOE REJOICE*

That speaks of an unnaturally high density, making the Lynel even heavier.

@@lonestarr1490 and thus the cycle begins anew

@@Walroose64 an unstoppable force meets an unmovable object

And the immovable object wins

once you learn how to parry/dodge all attacks in this game you just win until your weapons break

There are attacks you can't Parry, such as windblight's tornado attacks.

*Blows off its head and obliterates the land around him and destroys the lynel from this world* Ganon: RAEEEERARR ... RAERAEEUIIIIIIE [Translation] Ganon:IM DONE BYE ... EVEN I CANT SAVE THAT LYNEL AT THE BLOOD MOON

@@gon7576 Actually the same explains how he can parry a lynel with a pot lid but he can die of a few boko hits. It happens that link can slow down time (bullet time, flurry rush exist?) When he's doing a perfect parry, he uses his time-slowing ability to slow down time to a point where it's like pushing someone of equal strength (That also explains why the pot lid doesn't break). However, if he does it too early, he is open to the charge and takes heavy damage. If he doesn't parry or does it to late, he just tanks the attack, which for things such as a lynel charge throws him in the air, and the pot lid becomes wooden shards.

SAME

Same

He also fought long and hard enough outside Fort Hateno that the Master Sword started to get worn down and nearly break. Even before Zelda saved the day there was alot of destroyed Guardians littering the ground around them, all, presuambly, destroyed by Link. Breath of the Wild Link is monster in combat going by the glimpses of the past.

@@TheTriforceDragon it makes sense the only other link I know of that was actually officially trained by a professional instead of the local guy with a sword was skyward sword link and even than it was a very peaceful place witch means links generally have a natural talent for swords that allows barely trained links win against experienced foes so a link who was trained from childhood by some of the best in a kingdom that was eventually PREPARING FOR WAR not to mention whatever else he was trained in from the other races if not the STRONGEST link than this is certainly the most SKILLED link

@@sebastianramsey5019 This Link was a Knight, came from a line of Knights, his father a Royal Guard. That means that our Link went through: Training through childhood, being a squire and training under a knight, being knighted and training with the Hyrulean army, and becoming a Champion.

Marche where is the journal I didnt see that in the one in the library

@@ragingweeb5235 Sorry it wasn't the King's journal, it was Daruk's Champion's Ballad Journal.

It seems that aside from their magical and psychic abilities, the Hylians also possess a degree of superhuman strength as Link in The Adventures of Link, Ocarina of Time, Twilight Princess, Skyward Sword, and Breath of the Wild have shown. This seems to however, be limited to physically fit Hylians who have matured to some degree.

Even than its still freaking insane since guardians beams are literallyBeams of pure light (lasers) so it kinds of travel at the speed of light which kinds of makes sense since younger link`s in other incarnations have doged, parried or/and blocked lasers.

the only hylian shown to have superhuman strength was Link, i dont think any other hylian is that strong

@@blueberryindigo3087 It can't be light speed-because then you wouldn't be able to parry it on reaction... unless everyone in Hyrule moves really fast, but that means every enemy in the game is absurdly powerful as well... which means Link is even more impressive.

@Da-Ron Davis yah but you all have to remember that hylians have a power call The force (its canon in the hyrule hystoria book) thats what allows link to use magical items like running so fast he can run on water or other magics that allows them to control the concepts of reality (conceptual,paradox,acousality,probability etc) and no its not everyone who can only specific individuals can do what link do (ganon all the main bad guys grom the other diffrent games and the sages plus champions) since they all represent the peak of their species also link is the only one who has been worthy to weild the full triforce. the triforce created by the 3 golden goddesses who is stated by Nintendo them self the simple fact that they existed they created the zelda multiverse (since each timelines are different universes) and the triforce only contains a fraction a really small fraction of their power the triforce the most powerfull item in the zelda that can rewrite the world anyways the user wants it to be. the second would be the master sword since SS link forge the goddess sword into the master sword by using each part of the triforce as a fail safe incase something goes wrong (ALTTP) and the master sword is canonacaly able to stop anykind of magical attacks and thats in base form (golden master is a way more powerfull version) if it wasnt for gameplay mechanics link would be fighting like heroic spirits from the Nasuverse(fate series) or like sasuke and naruto with how actually destructive his items is also acient arrows erase people from existence soul mind and body plus some links are know to shoot arrows from thousands of kilometers away thanks to light arrows and their own skills. Ps link has such a mastery over time he was shown to be able to travel a 100 years in the past and back again in the present and anywhere in between (oracale of ages) link is ridiculously OP its not even funny.

I feel like his sheild is just an uno reverse now 💀

He has vows and restrictions to adhere to. Link is an (Hunter x Hunter) Aura user?

​@@nullpoint3346 do you mean nen user?(not being mean. Just thought was what you were saying and wanted to make sure)

@@lady-ghira-fan3263 They are what I'm referring to, yes, but not what I mean. Nen is a form of aura manipulation. They say it in the manga and both of the anime. But Nen doesn't exist in LoZ, though some of it's principles may still apply. An Aside: While most settings don't call spellcasters "mana wielders", that is ultimately what they are. (Not accounting for Vancian magic adjacent systems, but most of those still have mana as a lore word even if not as an appreciable resource) Nen as a magic system is like what MMA is to competitive sports. A decent fraction of what's possible, but nowhere near complete. Additional aside: I'm disappointed that we don't get to see other style of aura manipulation outside of the "geniuses" and nen users.

@@nullpoint3346 I know that, I just didn't quite understand whether you messed up with what it was called or not since, at least I haven't come across it if so, they don't refer to it as using aura they refer to it as using nen

Lol it’d probably be like the one time they showed kenpachi from bleach actually use kendo and he one shot a fool he’d appeared to be struggling with although he was dicking around until he noted he might possibly die.

Would make sense tbh

@@ana_cabana It really does.

I can see him being ambidextrous. That’d be a useful skill for a swordsman.

I think that because he's a different Link from other timeline he might be right handed this time

UltimateKyuubiFox or he takes a lot of courage from his left hand

The absolute madman

Just the hit at bare minimum, would fucking desintegrate the lynel, you still Care about a few extra newtons?

He has yet to regain his full strength yet. Wonder how strong he will be in the 2. Game when his strength has recovered.

but it's not even that, he is using the enemy's force against them. as that pretty much what a parry is, it's redirecting energy, not blocking it. they are two completely different things. when you block, your shield and your body is absorbing the impact.

demonpride1975 and Link can block the charge with barely even a flinch. The amount of force he’s blocking is still ridiculous. If he could turn this kind of strength into striking power, he would cut through Hyrule Castle like it was made out of butter. Zeltik’s Strongest Link video would be made irrelevant at that point, since BOTW Link could cut through several feet of stone with zero effort. He’d be stronger than Ganondorf at that point.

I know this might not be a serious question, but it's actually useful for game physics programming. I'd be surprised if BOTW didn't use this formula underneath.

The lynel got him before he could finish his sentence

This isn't even the best formula to apply to this problem. Momentum and kinetic energy calculations are better suited for this problem where the applied force is instantaneous (i.e. collisions)

@@luchonn6209 I doubt even that being the case, since you would want to avoid all unnecessary calculations. If the hitbox of the attack happens to be in the previously defined area in front of Link and you press the button, the move and its animation get activated.
