Kratos vs Link

It's still questionable. In order to be Chaotic Evil, there must be no laws, no master, no boundaries and no compassion. Must be driven by pure hate and lack any sense of moral. There must be no regrets at all and the idea of killing innocent must not require consideration.

If that fits Kratos (Whichever version of him you are talking about) then he's Chaotic Evil. Although if he wants to redeem himself, that takes him out of the category.

But Kratos does not want to redeem himself. In the first game, he merely wanted to be free of the memories of his family's slaughter by his hand, he did not wish to change who he was.

GoW2 is a plot of revenge against Zeus.

Then he might be Chaotic Evil 😊 I don't have a clue. I'm just adding together what's said.

Anti-hero =/= non-evil.

he's chaotic neutral at best. its not like your going to get the intended results.

Explain why being an anti-hero excludes him from being evil? You don't have to be a villain to be evil.

And I have no 'intended results'. I'm arguing the facts.

Lesser weapons have been shown to be effective, so it already is effective simply as a powerful magic sword, what I'm saying is it's, to quote pokemon, super-effective!

That's not an intended result, that's what the sword does. The sword repels/destroys evil, and works like an off switch, supressing the power of those it touches.

That's not an intended result, your intended result, however, is to try and work around that and put Link at a disadvantage.

Both of the character's best strength feats are unquantifiable,

And no, Kratos is evil, the sword will do what the sword does. 😐 Instantly destroy Kratos? Probably not. Act as anathema to him and weaken him? Yes.

Or Kratos uses his superior physical strength and reflexes to cut Link in half.

Or he will just grab it from Links hands and toss it across the battlefield before smashing Links face into the ground.

Qaunify how hard Atlas squeezed.

And no, the sword managed to even supress the triforce of power, effectively turning Ganon off. 😐

didn't the fact that link had the triforce of courage had something to do with it?

Great feat, but non-quantifiable.

the fact that he even manged to repell that is a good enough feat.

No, the triforce of courage is the source of Link's personal power, not the sword's.

it is quantifiable because we already know that Kratos resisted being crushed by something weaker than Atlas(Rhodes) so we can at least know for certain that atlas is putting that amount of power into the crush. now you are trying to work out Kratos feats so link can have a chance.

Kratos holding his own in that situation is clearly ridiculously impressive, but there's a limit to how far we can take assumptions. Kratos got injured by the collossus when he was off gaurd, this sort of puts a limit on how hard Atlas could have squeezed.
