Expect he is injured by his own attacks.
1. True, but point still stands. Neither one of us can prove it either way, only I have some evidence in the fact that it is a powerful artifact. Is the Master Sword also brittle?
2. ROFL notice where I said GanonDORF. Ganondorf in the 3D games clearly shows more power than the others.
OoT: Link fights Ganondorf, who is toying with him. Because of this, Link is able to defeat Ganon. Ganon then brings his whole castle down on top of himself. Ganon still lives, and knocks the MS out of Link's reach. They then have a short battle, Link using Megaton Hammer or Biggoron's Sword. You may try to say,"That proves he is not invulnerable" but this is clearly the most bullshit PIS gayness in the series. For one, if other weapons could hurt Ganon, what is even the point of getting the MS, especially since Biggoron's Sword is more powerful? Secondly, this feat contradicts with the other games, like WW, when Ganon was stated to only be harmed by the MS and Light Arrows. Anyway, back to the fight, Ganon is weakened, and Link retrieves the MS, fights him and weakens him some more. Zelda uses her power to hold down Ganon while weakened, and supercharges his MS, to strike at Ganon, making him vulnerable to the Sages, who then seal him. Could Link have done all this by himself? No, hell, he wouldn't of even gotten out of the falling castle without Zelda!
WW: This one is pretty simple. noy only is Ganon doubleteamed by Link and Zelda(who uses Light Arrows), but he doesn't even have his Triforce of Power anymore. A notable thing is that even without it, Ganon could still take multiple hits from Light Arrows, compared to the one hit kill it usually is.
TP: First, Ganon possesses Zelda and fights Link. Then he leaves her body and fights Link and Midna(who had the Fused Shadows) as a beast. After being momentarily subdued, Midna uses the full power of the Fused Shadows to try and defeat Ganon on her own, and she teles Link and Zelda outside. Ganon walks out triumphant, and crushes her Fused Shadows. He then fights Link and Zelda on horseback, summoning wraiths, with Zelda using Light Arrows. He then has a one on one battle with Link swordsman style, and eventually has the MS stabbed in his chest. He then seemed to die, but that is not so. We see a vision of Zant(who is Ganon's connection to the physical realm) snao his neck, and Ganon's eyes go blank, and he simply lost his physical connection to the world. Also, one aspect of this fight I would like to mention, is the gameplay scene of Ganon being overpowered by Link in a swordlock. First of all, TP Link is physically strong to the point of lifting 10+ ton Gorons up and throwing them with ease out of arenas, secondly, Ganon is likely weakened by this point, thirdly, this may just be bullshit gameplay. Oh, and did I mention all of this happened with Ganon having a big ass glowing hole in his chest?
3. A. Gameplay
B. The MS is a weapon that can be used to deflect evil blasts back at Link's opponent, and I think it also puts some of its own essence in the reflected blast.
