Kratos tanks a lightning bolt far more powerful than any meager offensive magic Kain can conjure.Immolate. Kratos has shown amazing burn tanking in GoW3. Useless. It wasn't all that effective against bosses, and I believe the Hylden Lord was immune altogether, and he was relatively unimpressive anyway.
Intangibility is nothing new for Kratos. Kain has to go on the offensive sometime. And he's far too slow to get off on Kratos anyway, he'll be countered in the blink of an eye. (Just take a wild guess which Olympian Kratos was fast enough to react to.)
Thats not a counter at all, useless to "high tier" enemies is apprently a counter? no, Bloodshower would kill both Link and Kratos. Ares did not try and mind control Kratos, he used the terror of seeing his family being killed by his own mindless bloodthirst to mentally distrupt him, not control him. Show me him tanking the lightning.
Bosses? so your using gameplay mechanics? and no, it was the only way to harm the Hylden lord when he had the reaver.
I am not just talking about intangibility, Kain can teleport far out of their reach in hardly any time at all. Kain could just pull Kratos from the ground by the head nad leave him struggling in the air with TK. Kain just uses TK to send the blood to Kratos' heart or brain instead of to himself. Easy win against an easy opponent.
Kain would just slice Kratos in half down the middle with the reaver, the energy the reaver gives out would blow him to piecies.

What Scream said. Plus what a bolt of energy is going to do to Kratos? Name of the Spell as well?
Incapacitation.
Theres no defence against the AOE time slow that would lead to Kain tearing Kratos apart with impunity. And I countered it.

Master Sword does the reflecting, the shield is wholly optional in this fight.
Same thing, the bolts still touching something Links using. Not that Links fast enough to react at any angle while already slowed.
