Twilight Princess Link vs. Ocarina of Time Link

Started by Thunder Fox4 pages

not true you aventually turn into a wolf at will once master sword is obtained Oni link is abit retarded and TPlink can reflect his energy shots with sheild bash no to menion that this is OoT link doesn't have the masks gaunlets make no difference and the magic is a gain too close range and magic arrows ar too slow to draw and can be reflected any way TP uses sheild bash, Helmsplitter or backward slice knock or finishing blow

gaunlets make no difference <-- they make him stronger,a hell of alot stronger, he could probley break him in half pretty easy, if TP link came in for a sword attack OOT link could break him in half like a branch,

TPlink can reflect his energy shots with sheild bash <-- and OOT link has Nayru's love which would make reflecting anything pointless, as well as a shield in case you didn't notice,

and the magic is again too close <-- dins fire has a decent range, for TP link to try and win he would have to stay very fare away from OOT link,
gaunlets would break him in half, dins fire would burn him, and TP links arrows would be useless since OOT link would block it pretty easy,

arrows too slow to draw <-- unless i blacked out from playing the game TP links arrows don't move super fast either, plus OOT links shield would block it and make it useless, and if TP link turned into a wolf links Biggoron Sword he could just spin move and wolf link would be dead meat once he came close

Oni link is abit retarded <-- i don't know what you mena by that, and since OOT link is the same link from majoris mask i don't see why it can't count, and with that mask he is pretty much a god, all the links together probley wouldn't stop oni link,

they make him stronger,a hell of alot stronger, he could probley break him in half pretty easy, if TP link came in for a sword attack OOT link could break him in half like a branch,] they makeno difference in battle and you know it lifting boulder mak no difference unless you can use it in a fight

and OOT link has Nayru's love which would make reflecting anything pointless, as well as a shield] in case you didn't notice only till your magic runs out and that thing prvent you using other magic and it waste magic fast

dins fire has a decent range, for TP link to try and win he would have to stay very fare away from OOT link,
gaunlets would break him in half, dins fire would burn him, and TP links arrows would be useless since OOT link would block it pretty easy] again its only one spell at time its either Nayrus love or din's fire not both that goes for magic arrows too

unless i blacked out from playing the game TP links arrows don't move super fast either, plus OOT links shield would block it and make it useless, and if TP link turned into a wolf links Biggoron Sword he could just spin move and wolf link would be dead meat once he came close] magic arrow you have to wait, draw, fire, repeat plus no garuenntee it will hit him cause of TPs sheild and fireing an arrow is faster then a magic arrow plus the hawkeye attachment to it provides precie aiming

i don't know what you mena by that, and since OOT link is the same link from majoris mask i don't see why it can't count, and with that mask he is pretty much a god, all the links together probley wouldn't stop oni link] cause this fight is with OoT thus before his trip to termina bay Oni link does not count to this fight

Well, I think now we're just comparing the technology of video games now. I'm sure that if they could make the Ocarina of Time Link fight as gracefully as the TP Link, they would, but they couldn't. Obviously, due to the evolution of the capabilities of Nintendo, the TP Link is superior in pretty much every aspect.

No. You see it was stated in Twilight Princess that Link had sword training from a sword master plus training from that gold wolf/skeleton thingy who knew the hidden techinques. OoT Link has no form of sword training what so ever.

TP Link >>>> OoT Link in sword fighting

Now then Adult Link in OoT still has the experience of a 10 year old because during those 7 years Link did nothing. Link in TP is around 16-19 (his age is never said) giving him +6-9 years of more expierence then OoT Link. You keep wanting Link to have abilities and moves from Majora's Mask but Link did not recieve those items/abilities during his journey in OoT but in another game all together so the Fierce Diety Mask can't be used since this is OoT Link.

OoT Link still has a limited supply of magic. TP Link can become a wolf and easily avoid OoT Link until he wastes his magic using Nayru's Love.

well said...plus TP link has better equipment, like the magic armour, the light sword, gale bommerang (not like that'd make a difference though), etc..TP link has better training, more experience and better equipment..therefor, he wins.

TP Link is much better at herding goats than OoT Link could ever dream of.... so there. TP Link wins by default.

I think that when TP Link learns all his Sword Skills, then he his swordsmanship would be equal to OoT Link. Sure Ocarina of Time doesn't show it, but the Swordsman that teaches you the sword skills in Twilight Princess comments on you becoming more like the Hero of Time when he trains you. When you first meet him, he says something along the lines of your sword skills being pitiful compared to the Hero of Time (OoT Link). So again. I think their sword skills are equal.

IF however, we are going by game-play, then TP Link has better swordsmanship.

I would say that TP Link is the superior in sword techniques, not because of technology, but because that there is actually much more proven about him being a swordsman. However, I would not put OOT Link far behind, as we all know, the Hero masters abilities and weapons instantly. (No, not just because of gameplay, it is even stated in TP that the kid says, "I never ever saw you wielding a bow in Ordon", and Link hasn't, however, from the moment he gets it he wields it probably better than Legolas does. Try the shooting game in Kakariko. Link is normally a master of all the weapons....)

However, OOT Link has magic, something that TP Link lacks. With this he can turn invinsible. Now as I heard you say, you said TP Link could turn into a wolf and keep away, but then OOT Link just fires an arrow into his flesh, there is no way he can dodge arrows for long. I think OOT Link wins because (and very much because of just this) he got this magic, and magic overall...

But that's just my opinion...

TP link is way better than OOT link in swordmanship , right at the beggining all of the OOT links moves were considered useless for the golden wolf , In the end of the game link is already a master swordsman much better than the old link. In his wolf form link has some intant kill abilities that seem pretty nasty . Although the TP link doesnt have any magic at all , he has "evolutions " of the OOT items , like the dual clawshot , the boomerang with the wind god inside it , etc

Lol, what? OOT Link was considered to be a useless swordsman by the golden wolf? OOT Link is not even mentioned in this game, and if that was said, then there wouldn't be theories that the golden wolf actually is OOT Link. (Not that he is, but you know what I mean....)

OoT also has Nayru's love which is more powerful than TP Link's Magic armour. The Magic Armour won't last for long as he battles the other. Magic Armour drains his rupees while he wears it, and drains even more when he gets it. It will also wear him down when he wallet is empty, and will leave him vulnerable. Nayru's Love however, can be cast quite a few times, and even more if OoT Link has Blue Potions in his bottles. TP Link would have to on full defense when this happens.

However if we take away Nayru's Love and Magic Armour, OoT Link still has a good chance of winning. One of the Great Faires gave him a blessing which boosts his defense, so he can take twice the damage that the TP Link could which gives him an edge in health.

Oh, forgot about silver hearts...

But I agree, although the Magic armor will last probably a little longer (unless he gets hit alot, also OOT Link can reactivate it), when it is down to zero, it is not like gameplay where he just switches tunic, logically he is actually gonna have to take the whole thing of, undress that is. If he's gonna do that, Link cuts him down easily, if he doesn't, Link is stuck in that armor, and decaying.
Also, TP Link's armor leaves his face open, a strike there would kill him...

I wanna find how these guys would battle eachother melee. I would absolutly say that their best weapon is sword. Link in ocarina did train alot as young, while he didnt move a finger in 7 years. However, i dont think the last thing i mentioned does really affect his physicall strenght. However, what we can see is that he gains stronger, more powerfull when he grows up. As adult Link, he gets experience as he battle Gannon in a sword only melee battle. He also get som experience while battleing all that monsters.

Twilight Link was'nt really a fighter as young, in my eyes. But, first time he used a sword he really got the kids attention. As the story rolls on, he find a hero from the past. That hero teaches him some sword fighting and he also gets teachings from killing monster that comes in his way.

Ocarina Link as Twilight Link has killed a darknut. However, the darknut in Twilight is kinda different and explains more exactly how good Twilight link is at sword fighting.

However, it's harder to tell Ocarina Links sword skills but we have seen him fighting dark Link that seems to have the same skills as himself.

I can't really choose, but as ive seen twilight link getting teachings from the swordmaster and as i have seen him fighting gannondorf in a melee fight i would say that his better.

Yup, I pretty much agree....

You have a point, OOT Link actually has more battle experience, fighting huge monsters at the age of 10 already, while TP Link probably hasn't had a real fight in his life until the time of the Twilight adventure. He is a wangler however, his life is rougher than OOT Link's was, and he has already had some (better than nothing) experience on how to use a sword.

I just remembered that OOT Link has one edge in the melee battle, and that is his golden gauntlets. They give him such a large strenght advantage over TP Link that it's silly, a strike from OOT Link would probably be more than TP Link could handle if he was supposed to block it sword wise, and would force him to the ground if he protected strike to the head. You could say that Twilight Link has fought many people being bigger and stronger than him, but really, so has OOT Link, and unless TP Link presses the attack to the extent that OOT Link cannot handle, I can actually see them being quite equal....

In terms of raw strength, I think TP Link has alot of it. Anyone remember the Goron Mines mini-boss?

Raw strenght, yeah. (But remember, against the Goron's, he used iron boots. Basically they couldn't move him)
But if you would pit that strenght against OOT Link and his Golden Gauntlets, TP Link is ****ed...

Ocarina Link also has the iron boots wich means Iron boots + Golden gauntlets = Mnnnpprrg...

MEN!!!!!!!!!

Okay but OoT Link (even as an adult) still has the experience of that 10 year old boy. Nothing transpired during those 7 years. Link was basically asleep.

And also the golden gauntlets never improved fighting strength at all. It still took two swings from the Master Sword in OoT to defeat those blue spider things (I forgot their name) with or without the golden gauntlets. Also you mentioned that OoT Link can become invincible because of Nayru's Love but that would restict him from using any other magical ability and TP Link has Magic Armor which would have the same effect but manage to keep all his abilities in check.

Also TP Link seems to have more physical power (not including gauntlets) considering he had a sumo fight with the mayor of Ordon and defeated him not once but twice. Also Link can stop a charging goat and this was before he even left Ordon. Not to mention that TP Link managed to overpower Ganondorf in a sword battle when they lock swords. Overpowering Ganondorf (who has the Triforce of Power) isn't something a weakling can do.

Oh and the golden wolf never mentions the Hero of Time or Link. He just calls TP Link more and more like a hero. He never refers to OoT Link at all.

Also Link wouldn't be able to hit Wolf Link. Link would fire off a magic arrow and miss and he'll have to wait to be able to use another magic arrow giving Wolf Link a HUGE opening to attack Link with a dark energy field.

Really, TP Link takes this battle but not easily. Just because OoT Link started his quest when he was 10 doesn't mean anything. His experience is less then that TP Link has considering he is capable of defeating the mayor of Ordon in a sumo fight, stopping a charging goat, and overpowering Ganondorf himself.

Gameplay! Pure gameplay. I mean, do you honestly think that there is no difference in the weight of the Biggoron sword and that huge rock covering the entrance to the silver hearts? Link should be able to carry that sword with one hand instead of to, but that would make that sword overpowered, thus he can only use two hands. Same with the strikes, the enemies were already easy enough. If you think logically, of course the gauntlets enhance his striking strenght, it is the same as normal strenght. He has sickly much....

I have already said that TP Link is stronger normally, but with the golden gauntlets OOT Link is way, way, WAY ahead of him.

.............I said that OOT Link wasn't mentioned.... 😕

And why would Link shoots magical arrows after the wolf? He could shoot normal ones, and he can shoot damn fast. The wolf cannot just stand and dodge them, he will be hit sooner or later.
And while Link has Nayrus love, I never said he would use other magical abilities, he can still fire his bow or anything like that.
And TP Link's armor is open at the face, if Link strikes him there he dies. It's just an magical armour, not a field surrounding him like OOT Link's...

Also, when TP Link's rupees drain his armor becomes to heavy for him to carry without being slowed down as hell. If we think logically, he is actually going to have to remove the whole armor to be able to run again, if he is gonna start stripping then OOT Link finishes him off....
