Link (Legend of Zelda) vs. Superman (DC Universe)

Would he get in link's space that is constantly hurting him with magic and kryptonite for a strike that would blow his brains out? It seems like he would either back off and try something else or hold back on his punch, making it unable to pass through the cane's light.

In a plotless environment like KMC Superman is not limited by the plot and he will not be getting hit by Link at all. He will hold back at first, like he always does, but the moment he realizes that his punches are not cutting it(assuming that cane can actually withstand average Superman's punches) he will apply more and more strength as he sees fit until that thing will eventually crumble.

If sheer physical might does not cut it he can go intangible, get past that magic shield(whatever it is...kind of hard to visualize the fight because I haven't seen the cane at work) and just choke him/insert whatever method you want.

The gap in power is too vast. Superman's thought process is ridiculous. He will figure out a lot of shit before Link can even fathom a thought.

It's not a shield, it's light. But while he's punching he is getting hurt through magic and kryptonite. Is he just gonna keep punching?

So I went and youtubed the cane, and had already seen/played it. Just didn't remember the name.

Superman can definitely punch that out. Now that you mention it with magic and kryptonite on the field Superman will be more offensive and will not be holding back. It doesn't look good for Link at all. I don't see the magic and kryptonite doing enough before Superman knocks him out on his ass.

The problem Link has(like most every other non-speedster) is the fact that Superman is too fast.

I guess link just for the victory then.
It's never fun arguing for triforce wishes...

With it though nothing can be said for certain. mmm The biggest problem I can think of is that Superman 'should' not be able to put a triforce empowered Link down, because he 'shouldn't' even need a body at that point, ala the effects of the ToP, and Link 'should' be able to use his reality warping to win. But that's all speculative.

As the fight stands it is impossible to say for certain who wins. So I vote this:

Without the triforce, essentially yeah.

Lack of physical bodies be damned. Superman sings him out of existence either way.

😖hifty:

If 1% of superman is really able to break through all of link's defenses, than I don't doubt that...

Yeah, pretty much. Link loses hard without the Triforce, and with the Triforce we're too far into speculation.

Heh, it's always fun when someone discovers that a certain character is stronger than they thought at first. Every time, it spawns so many threads as they try to find someone that beats their new discovery. Occasionally we get threads like this, just to see how far supporters will go. I wouldn't say it's spite so much as it's testing the limits. Superman's a bit too much for Link, so the next thread should be scaled back with a weaker opponent until everyone's comfortable in their tier.

Spoiler:
Quanchi is still in the thread making phase of this process. It's similar to the stages of grief, I suppose.

You are becoming a fine Hylian Judas.

It mystifies me that you think me knowing when Link is outmatched is some kind of betrayal.

Yet what would you say if I thought Link won?

What?

Link loses and...?

Is there something I'm missing?

Against one of the strongest superheros of all time. Knowing the limits of a character doesn't makesthem weak.
