Mitsurugi vs. Link
After getting owned by Darth Vader, Mitsurugi flees to a village in shame. Link sees this depressed samurai and tries cheering him up. He suggests that they should do a sword fight. Unfortunatley Link doesn't have his Master Sword and Shield since they were destroyed when trying to prevent Nightmare from unleashing his evil across the lands. Mitsurugi hands Link his extra samurai sword (he has the extra just in case his first one got destroyed). The two are in an arena and begin to fight.
This is not a fight to the death. Just a friendly sword fight (although there will be cuts and bruises). No, Link does not have his bombs, arrows and magic so don't even try adding them in here.
Even if Link was resistant to blades the match isn't to the death. Simply beating your opponent and getting them in a death position would give you the win.

I know. You didn't understand what I was saying. I never said they were going to kill each other, I'm saying you can bang something made of steel with a wooden stick for awhile and you're not winning. o.o

Thats not the point, all Mits has to do is get Link into a position that would kill him if he was made out of paper, like a sword to the throat or have link disarmed, etc etc

It's not irrelevant, you're assuming it's a scored match. Points for a touch? He never said that, he did say there'd be cuts and bruises, and that it was a friendly match. You can't make someone surrender of concede if you can't hurt them at all.
If it's a match with points for a touch, then I'll restructure my argument.

You're assuming the fight is structured. Tell me when he said anythign more than it's not a death match? How will he get Link into a death position? Unless he's strong he can't even make Link life his chin. o_O

You can parry someone trip them and point your sword to their throat and be declared the winner. What durability feats does Link have against piercing damage? Getting shot out of a cannon or getting hit by Ganon doesn't count. Mitsurugi's armor is durable enough to tank right through musket fire and he even blocks a bullet coming towards his face
He states it's a friendly sword fight and it's done to cheer Mitsurugi up. It's not supposed to be about one forcing the other to submission, defeat or death. It's about besting them in swordsmanship. That's what a swordfight is.

Yes it does. Except for the last one, which onyl requires speed, but to actively deflect a blow from Link Mits would need to be very strong, to block he'd have to be very strong, to even force Link to move at all, would require some form of strength feat that puts him above human.
Then how will the winner be decided? You're assumign that point, is all I'm saying. o_O
