The Scourge Vs. Huryle

The Scourge has come to Huryle and are not sated until it is under their rule. Note that this is not Link Vs. The Scourge, but the forces of Huryle against the forces of the Scourge.

The land is called Hyrule, Miria.

Do the scourge get their leaders such as LK and Keltuzard?

Like in Warcraft, they get their leaders mostly to protect themselves from retaliation. The lesser commanders and the fodder are the ones that will wage war. The Lich King and Kel'Thuzad for example has their duties to bolster the Scourge forces, as they do in World of Warcraft.

Thank you

So, this means that Link is not present? Also, which land of Hyrule are we referencing?

If it's TP Hyrule and Link isn't there, Scourge in an epic stomp. Them soldiers are pussies.

Let's say it's Hyrule during the Great Seal War mentioned in LttP. That way Hyrule has the Hylian Knights as well as the sages.

Which Hyrule? The land changed incredibly over time, along with it's inhabitants.

Edit: Oh, are we using the Imprisoning War Hyrule?

What kind of forces does Hyrule have?

Depends on which Hyrule. Personally I suggest TP Hyrule as it has Zoras, large Gorons, the large snowbeast, the special group that tries to help Link free Hyrule, and all of Ganondorf's forces in the desert.

WW Hyrule would probably give a good battlefield advantage though. Well, unless The Scourge are experienced with sailing.

OoT Hyrule could do better than TP Hyrule as it has that incredibly huge Goron of Death Mountain and plenty of the Gerudo, as well as Zoras. I don't think OoT soldiers were as worthless as TP soldiers, either.

Actually, I'm gonna recommend OoT for Biggoron. 👆

OoT does have a Goron the size of mountain. If you want to go with MM stuff, Gorons can sheath themselves in fire when they roll, and use flaming punches. Zoras can generate magical barriers and throw their fins like boomerangs. Or does Termina not count for being an alternate dimension?

Oh well, I'm pretty sure Hyrule would lose even though Ganondorf can pull an army out of his ass.

Wait, we have Ganondorf, Link and Zelda out there too?

I thought we were including Ganondorf's forces as well. If Link, Zelda, and Ganondorf are all out there, it's an auto-win due to Triforce.

I had assumed "no".

Pretty much. But what encompasses Hyrule Forces needs to be specified. If we can include some dungeon bosses we also have Volvagia and some other powerful creatures out there.

I do not think the battle take place during any game. I imagine it is the default forces of Hyrule that defend themselves from the Scourge.

Anyway, it takes more than muscle to bring down the Scourge. Brawn doesn't cut it.

I don't know who the Scourge are. What makes it so that they can't just be powered through? If anything can, I'd say an army of Zoras, Gorons, Gerudo and some dungeon bosses could do it. Especially with one Goron the size of a mountain and several others that are also very large.

The thing about the Scourge that make brawn unable to do the trick, is that their numbers are near infinite and they also plague living beings and have them join their ranks. The Scourge is a circle system that you have a really hard time getting rid of, once it is established. With poisons, gas and magic, they will increase in numbers virtually regardless of how many you kill.

The mountain sized Goron would prove problematic, but if Warcraft has taught us one thing, it is that its magic should never be excluded from an equation. Mere scouting units of the Scourge has proven capable of turning a body against itself and have its skeleton tear out of its fleshly prison and serve the Scourge. The mountain sized Goron may not be effected by such minor moves, but sooner or later, it too would fall, if all it has is its size.

As recently proven though, you can not stop the Scourge even should you sever its head (Kill the Lich King). Common soldiers are not intelligent enough to stop the Scourge. It would need the involvement of Ganondorf, Link or someone with the capability to sever its mass production.

So they're like a Warcraft version of Tyranids and Zerg. This is sounding like a spite thread as Hyrule wouldn't be large enough to have fair numbers.

Any durability feats for the Lich King? If we can't have Link, Ganon or Zelda to kill him I'm hoping Biggoron can just step on him or something.

That is his only significant durability feat and not even I know how good it actually is. If a giant stomped on him, he might fall. The problem is that he can phase shift, meaning he leave the physical realm behind. Warcraft 3 define phase shifting as leaving existence and returning a short period later, but that is just one of his many abilities.

The problem with defeating the Lich King, is that he can go spiritual at will, much like Ysera. If he knows you're coming, there's no way of killing him. The only times things has gone bad for him, is when he has been caught of guard:
Light's Hope, having his heart destroyed, Wrathgate and Tirion Fordring's connection to the Light.

Hyrule needs Link, Ganondorf or some significant other character to fight the Lich King. Meager brawns won't do it. Without the heroes or villains of Zelda, this pretty much is a spite. As Phantom Miria said, Lich King is actually involved in this invasion. Passive as he may be, that makes the Scourge a very intelligent force in addition to their unlimited numbers and their ability to turn entire armies against themselves.

I'd bet a couple Light Arrows would do some damage. Certainly the Master Sword and most likely Ganondorf.

Would The Scourge have any way to stop Biggoron if he began rolling? Even human sized Gorons move pretty fast when rolling, thinking about the amount of distance Biggoron could cover in a short amount of time is pretty impressive. I'm thinking if one step from a giant might finish him, Biggoron could do some serious damage to the entire army by himself in one charge.
