Furthermore, if Superman knows what the triforce is he could pull a Daphnes and ask a wish before Link realizes what is going on.


This is the problem we face. Link has always gotten rid of the Triforce after he fixed things, we've never seen what would happen if he didn't do that. He needn't become intangible though, because physical damage can't put down someone who doesn't need a physical body. We're working off what'd happen if Link did keep it.

Also, that was basically the single most PIS ridden moment in the series. Great game, but I seriously facepalmed. haermm

Chances are Superman's will and nobleness overrides Link's lol.

Probable, but Superman isn't in possession of it. The Triforce explicitly makes no judgements about who is wielding it, or Ganondorf would never have been the eternal issue he became. shrug

Aye. I'm joking. But then again...am I? biscuits

I can never tell with you. uhuh But yeah. Speculatingk is fun. Though I want a game where we see what the Triforce can really do in combat. They've been avoiding doing that for more than 25 years now.

Doubt it will ever happen. Nintendo seems to like mystifying and making the triforce almost absolute. IMO the triforce is better off as it is. Chances are we will be disappointed and it will lose rep. If they ever applied the full triforce in combat..who would be the villain...the original goddesses?

Well, they do seem to be slowly being remodelled into uncaring precursors. So, maybe. (That would be epic as ****, imho.) But yeah, Ganon possessing the whole thing only even worked as a plot point because of the Master Sword. The villain would have to be insanely powerful.

It does sound really epic. I'd like a darker tone and game. Imagine a cross between Majora's Mask and Twilight Princess set in one of the alternate/negative timelines where OoT Link died. The goddesses have returned to clean house and the only hope against them is the triforce itself(hope I'm not messing it up because I've yet to fully read HH)

I had guessed a good portion of what SS revealed years before the game was released.

..this threads real? The guy who *****-slaps light and can bench-press the Moon with his dick wins.

For the purpose of debate, how does Supes react 'around' K-nite? I know in some sources being within 10 ft of a small sample would start bringing him down, and they'd be on Link the whole time. First thing that came to mind is this. This is the only way Link could hope to face Superman, and not by firing the arrows.

Seems the most relevant thing is the Triforce, well by shown feats the TF is magically in the Mountain range I guess. While Supes takes magic normally, there have been instances where he's used his brute force and willpower to overcome magic.

Yeah, it's real. Win or lose, I really wanted to test Link. Don't forget that Link can deflect light as well.

The single topic would be his magic. Minus the elemental/force based magic and we're left with the transfiguration spell from aLttP, but that would't have enough juice.

So its either Supes is weakened by just being close to Link because of the kryptonite, or the Triforce. Only options possible.

How does raw power resist a transformation spell?

Something just occurred to me. Link can split into four along with all of his equipment, right? Couldn't one Link use Cane of Byrna and Transfig? Another could block the sun/send it away with Song of Storms/Song of Passing. The third one could try to bombard Supes with magically empowered k-nite arrows. The main Link could fall back on the Triforce and do... well... whatever he needs to do, I guess. This is just speculative, of course. I believe it's worth taking into consideration.

Supes would break through Byrna, likely too strong for Transfig, taking away the Sun would do nothing, arrows wouldn't hit him and he'd see the K-nite on them right away.

He simply does. One can make the argument that his overall durability backed by his will can resist it.

He has resisted transmutation from a multiversal being iirc.

So using the magic mirror to send him to the dark world is out?

Wasn't that Mxztyplkeoghgj? I don't think he counts as magical. mmm

Yeah he does. Despite his magic supposedly being "5D tech" he had his powers dramatically lessened in Day of Vengeance a story where magic quit working properly.

Weird. Very weird. Are there any other occurences where that happened? mmm
