The Blade of Olympus vs. The Master Sword (actually it's Kratos vs. Link)

Physical is all he needs, and Ganon has no useful powers that he actually uses against Link and considering Kratos outclasses Link in reach and strength then Link is destroyed. Link simply is not quick enough against Kratos, even Links skill in comparison is debatable.

He is stronger and has more weapon types. He also has a lot of sorceries. Hes more powerful where it counts against Link.

Kratos is a spartan and he was a warrior before following Ares, the BOO also ended a war with a swipe, he has the stronger weapon, he's reacted to lightning and he's resisted Atlas' strength who was holding up the world IIRC.

Kratos, stronger? We can look at Kratos opening a door or pushing a block and deduce that he is nothing of the sort.

There's no evidence Kratos is stronger, and he only has a sword here. Link is a better swordsman, Kratos loses.

Sure there is, Links a little midget who lifts pebbles and Kratos is a hulking Spartan who tosses giant bronze men....

Link is a better swordsmen lol? what training has he had that compares to that of a Spartan and Ares? against that of a man who has lived his life fueled by war...

Physical strength doesn't automatically = win. And Kratos isn't quick enough, either. And Kratos has useful powers? What does that have to do with him > Ganon.

Link is a midget? That is utter fecal matter. Adult Link stands taller than most other men in Hyrule. A height of 6' is feasible.

Well it means he can turn link to stone...but thats irrelevent rly, its a sword fight. Either way he is still faster, I dont buy that lightning dodge stuff but his combos with the blades of chaos can make him look a blur and Link could not stop Kratos. As soon as he tries to block his sword is probably shattered and so is his arms. Kratos has a height and reach advantage.

And yet, he couldn't even outstrength Icarus or the Sisters of Fate (I think). In sword feats, Ares has nonething. Being a Spartan doesn't mean shit, the Barbarians whooped the shit out of them.

EDIT: Kratos couldn't even "shatter" a regular human.

Also, BT, dont forget that Link turned Ganon to stone in WW.

barbarians had numbers and the specifics on Kratos' army was not so clear, we do not know their training, they could be fresh recruits. Hell many could be mercenaries. The number advantage on the barbarians was enough. The Sisters of fate? I dont remember him canonically trying to do that, or Icarus...

And 5Link I heard that only happened because the sword was in his head or some such. The specifics needed to be explained on that particulour event.

Atlas never tried to kill Kratos. But yeah, Kratos feats aren't actually that incredible strengthwise. 😐 When you actually look at them, Ganon is stronger physicly. He's also far more durable. And Kratos has no feats of swordsmanship, Link does.

The Mastersword can lay down a seal on the entire sacred realm, that > sealign a few titans.

True, but even still, it can do that.

Also, the MS seals off the gateway of time travel as a whole, in LoZ lore (if you're a splittist).

Since TP and WW are confirmed as a resuklt of a split,. everyone's a splittist.

But yet, you just said what does he compare to a Spartan, lol. Excuses, excuses. And for all we know, the Barbarians could've been fresh recruits as well. Gaia: "The barbarians to the east numbered in the thousands, and descended on the Spartans, without mercy." We don't know if they were outnumbered.

Actually, I'm a "literal legendist". Splittist continuity doesnt mesh the story perfectly, so hence the above.

I didn't mean it in "that" way. Heh, I don't feel like explaining (he deleted the part of the post of what he said). But yeah, ignore that.

Ganons never done half of what Kratos has done. Does Ganon even have any physical strength feats at all? not even real durability feats...

He doesnt need feats when his background outlines his skill far above Link.

not really since one Titan would crush the Sacred realm....

It's a bit fuzzy.

One minute we see Kratos not only stop a fierce stomp from a giant statue, but also flip it over, the next he's struggling to open up a gate or to overpower an old coot.
