Nightmare WOULD win this. Did you have Soul Calibur II and the GameCube version in mind when you made this topic? If so then NM would win because the developers really nerfed Link. His moves look cool, even his made–up moves look like he could have done them in other games, but they have made so many of his moves unsafe. His ranged weapons suck arse so much their breath stinks permanently of shit. Only the bow works even ½–decently, but even then it works well only after launching someone. And after a 3B launcher Link’s best option doesn’t consist of going into Bow stance, but G–cancelling the instant he goes into it, and hitting 8B for the upwards ‘Rocket Stab’, then doing a 1KK double kick on his opponent as they head for the ground.
Seriously, I started playing SCII when my fiancée had it for the GC, I spent countless hours practising with Link… and my win strategy involves hovering the select cursor over Link, and then picking Nightmare for the win. 4G GI + 4A, 8WR 3[B] into NBS, B to rape ½ of Link’s health bar. NM could stomp the rest out of him…
Originally posted by Darkstorm ZeroIf Link had Light arrows he would win but since this is TP Link he goes down hard.
For me, it would depend on what version of Nightmare, and what weapon your giving him.A fully emowered SC3 Nightmare with Soul Edge complete may very well destroy link... That sword has a remarkable way of nerfing other peoples powers.
I'm not sure if Light Arrows would do anything... Ganon had a specific weakness to them, and thats why they where effective against him, but neither Nightmare or Soul Edge have a weakness against light...
Dnyways, Wouldn't Nightmare simply block the Arrows with his sword? the thing is wide enough to act as a shield...
