I SHEE! Well: You went away shortly after the speed of a 585 spin was discovered.
Here's teh dealz; Dark Link can backflip onto a thrust by Link, which would take less time for Link to make than a 90 degree hack.
Shrink the size of the slash, and you also shrink the time it takes to make it. Link can thrust with his sword in around 0.02, and Dark Link can *do a backflip and land on top of it*, because he's just that ignorantly cool.
tl;dr: Dark Link is very, very fast.

Absolutely. The argument of bringing it down is Kratos reacted in time to Zeus' telegraphing of the attack and not the lightning itself. Something I'm not entirely convinced of.
Still, Kratos didn't dodge that lightning.
