Ganondorf Vs Azeroth

Started by ScreamPaste15 pages

point 4 however is interesting, apprently he was going to use force anyway, so all this "hes using link to get the triforce" is BS?

No...

Before any of them have a piece of the triforce, Ganon manipulates Link into openning the door of time.

AFTER; the triforce splits, something no one could have foreseen. No one even knew Link had the triforce of courage until the end of OoT, and THEN Ganon tries to take it by force, after he'd already manipulated Link into handing him the ToP, and Zelda, who had the ToW. He had to take the last piece by force, because Link has that plot device protection I keep mentioning.

Also it seems your calling everything a plot device, its possible Ganons just not that powerful.
No, I'm telling you that the sword and ToC are powerful plot devices, not calling "everything" a plot device.

Link>>>>>>Random Paladin.

1. I never said that, I know that reading my post must be hard for someone of such feeble intelligence, but try to bear with me, kay? Like everyone has said, Ganon does guard said places. Yet you for some reason say he doesn't.

Tell me Tom. What makes you think you know how much effort Ganondorf puts forth in guarding these areas? You, who have never played a Zelda game?

2. A child. Once again, you are ignoring that since Link is a fictional character, him being a child does not necessarily mean a thing in regard to his power. I know children in fiction who could conquer Azeroth in a couple minutes, and then solo the entire Pantheon of Titans. Link being a "child" means absolutely nothing, when said child is able to black an attack from a Moblin, a creature over twice his size. You grasp at this straw constantly, yet no one else is buying it.

3. So these traps must be simple, RITE!? Because a child did them, GANON IS CLEARLY UNABLE TO MAKE TRAPS A CHILD COULDN'T SOLVE, RITE!?!?!?!?!?!? Or...Maybe Link is more intelligent than the average kid, to fit with all his other Suish traits? Link as a child is able to do what the adults of Hyrule cannot. Him being a child means nothing, something someone like you is unable to grasp.

4. And are. 🙂

Link>>>>>>Random Paladin.

1. He doesnt so much as guard them as post a couple of people there by the sound of it. If I were him, I would send my whole force around at least one major item he needs to complete the game.

I dont know Shane, maybe the fact he apparently has so much power without even any triforce yet a child happens to get past any defence.

2. If were comparing feats, physical ability etc then yes, its important. let me guess, these children are more than little guys wearing green hats?

3. You seem to be making a lot of assumptions, I am using fact,s Link is a child, Link beats them....two facts, your assumptions are that Link is vastly more intelligent than a child despite probably having a medieval education and his logic skills being what? nothing? and more importantly the assumption that Ganons traps anything more than petty/pathetic as are all his attempts at stopping link it seems. Since when have the adults of hyrule attemptd?

4.

Based on what exactly? his whole repetoire of items from the get go? Ganons not beaten by Links strength, intelligence, physical ability or w/e he just gets foiled because of short sightedness or lazyness and then gets owned by a child, as do his schemes.

random paladin has a lot of holy powers, whats Link got? arrows and a sword.....paladins can have that along with holy armour and a vast amount of spells.

Ok, so he opens the door of time, why does he use Link? any specific reason?

pretty much the items that defeat dorf, anything that can beat him has to be a plot device "sigh", looking at the background of these items their not impressive. ToC can be assumed to be powerful but the sword not so. It would<<<Ashbringer

1. not as powerful as Ganon or so youve told me. Not without all his equipment. Under Agahaem or w/e he had hyrules ear, Ganon himself had Gerudos, surely they could hinder one child....

2. I lold, random? each paladin has a vast amount of holy powers, the kind Link would be jelous of, all it takes is a few items considered divine or blessed by weak sages to defeat Ganondorf. Thats not an argument, dont deny it, Ganondorf underestimates all his foes.

3. oh please with what? with his island destroying powers he should be able to bury the temples even if their holy powers dont allow him to get inside.

4. He had Agahaim who had the ear of the King himself and your trying to argue that he couldnt bribe/talk a few guards into getting his hands on a kid? or guarding the temple... Link from the beginning, and can you actually show the scene of Agahim killing Links uncle? sounds amusing for a guy whos prob featless stopping Ganons possessed wizard for even a moment.

1. Who is not as powerful as Ganon? I know it is hard to read for you BT, you should prolly work on that before posting on the forums. Link needs only his sword to kill most creatures in the game. He was an advisor. He could not muster an army. The Gerudos? A bunch of skinny desert women kill Link, when hordes of monsters could not? GTFO.

2. Considering Link's holy items can seal Ganondorf, they>>>Paladins. It takes a few items created by world making Gods. God made sword>>>Random Pally. Light Arrows utterly annihilate anything but Ganon that they are shot at, they only stun Ganondorf. Ganon underestimates his foes? Is that why he makes sure to safeguard every threat Link could use, and is that why the first thing he had Zant do was subdue the Light Spirits?

3. With gigantic monsters no normal child can defeat, but Link does? Oh...And he DOES destroy an island so that Link cannot claim an item that can be used against him. He freezes over a city for the same purpose, and he killed/captured the Gorons, a race of super strong living rocks, to keep the Fire Temple safeguarded. He also resurrected an ancient dragon.

4. A kid who kills monsters every five minutes? Oh, and you can fight castle guards, Link easily fells them. He went to fight Aghanim and told Link to run, we do not see it. And Aghanim was not really all that powerful. And no, **** you, I'm not getting anything for someone who doesn't even play the games they claim to know so much about.

Ok, so he opens the door of time, why does he use Link? any specific reason?
Link has the spiritual stone of the forest, and access to Princess Zelda, who has the ocarina of time, and gives it to Link.

Link assembles the stones, and does all the work for Ganon, openning the door of time.

pretty much the items that defeat dorf, anything that can beat him has to be a plot device "sigh", looking at the background of these items their not impressive.
I lol'd.
Things that are explicitly plot devices, are plot devices. The fact they're needed to beat Ganon is sort of related to that, y'know?

ToC can be assumed to be powerful but the sword not so.
Both have shown themselves to be powerful, and are stated to be so, you have no argument.

In ALttP, Aganhim does set the army on Link. He'd mind controlled all the soldiers of Hyrule and told the population that Link had kidnapped the Princess (rescued her from him, actually.) There were guards hunting him at all times, and even the citizens of Hyrule were calling the guards on him.

Aganhim managed to get close to the King by causing plagues, earthquakes, and other natural disasters and then solving them with magic. He was made an advisor, then killed the King and took over. Then he set the military on Link.

Just to clear it up.

1. A couple of people? The dungeons/temples are consistently filled with numerous monsters, traps, and at least one "boss" monster to hinder Link. You would send your entire force to guard a single item? Why? So it would be pathetically easy for Link to get the other items? =| Your idea of tactics is humorous.

He's not a normal child. That is what you consistently ignore. The moment Link walked into the Deku Tree and killed Gohma with a sword and slingshot, he stopped being a normal Child.

2. Link is more than one, as everyone has pointed at, but you consistently ignore. Moblins are bigger than adult humans, and Link can block their blows and kill them. Obviously, any child is capable of such feats, right?

3. Link is a child who is able to fight his way through armies and solve complex traps, though you would not know that as you have never played the game, yet are somehow of the impression you know what you are talking about and are not an egotistical buffoon. My "proof" is the fact that Link is able to solve these traps and maneuver these dungeons and do all he does, which PROVES Link is not the average child, the average child cannot navigate an ocean by himself. You ASSUME they are pathetic, you can do nothing but assume since you never ****ing played the games. Since when? Gee, maybe when Ganon killed the king in OoT and left Hyrule city in chaos? Or maybe when the Gorons, super strong rock people, attempted but were killed/captured.

4. He gets beaten because he is usually not in a position to physically stop Link himself, and his minions are not powerful enough to stop Link. He always safeguards threats to him, but of course in typical Burning Fanboy fashion you will ignore my post and make the same claim next one.

Arrows which completely disintegrate any enemy but Ganon, and a sword which is among the only weapons that can harm Ganon. Link also has physical strength via magic items that place him at able to lift multiple tons each game, how strong they are varies each game. Link almost always gets magic armor in the game.

Shitpaste, is this true?

Have not played aLttP in too long to tell.

Actually, yes, it is.

Huh. Neat.

So even Aghanim was able to cause plagues, earthquakes and shit.

Oh, wait, I seem to have gotten one part wrong.

Pestilence and drought, uncontrollable even by magic, ravaged the land. The king of Hyrule, after counsel with his sages, ordered an investigation of the Imprisoned Dark World (as the Golden land had come to be known) but the wise men's seal was apparently intact. He offered rewards for anyone who could find the source of these troubles. In answer to these summons a stranger named Agahnim came and quelled the disasters with a previously unseen form of magic." (A Link to the Past (SNES version) manual, pg. 6)

http://www.zeldawiki.org/Agahnim#cite_note-0

No earthquakes, sorry, just plagues and droughts that were immune to conventional magic. And at least one fire no one else could extinguish.

..And here we again, coming full-circle to what I said 4 pages ago...

Aside from his already considerable ability to use force, it's very possible Ganon would manipulate an organisation such as the horde or alliance, saving his own forces for when they're needed. (Which would be continually growing as Azeroth took casualties, as well as his penchant for creating powerful minions, he's a powerful necromancer.)

Particularly considering the OP states he's attempting to rule Azeroth, not conquer it. It's entirely possible he would slip into Azeroth on his own to put whatever machinations he developed in his ten year study of the land. I could see Ganondorf assuming control without having to even having to summon his minions, or better, he could establish a political foothold, then use his army as an "invasion" scenario to rocket to supreme power, a la Palpatine.

Ganondorf could probably find a way to summon a demonlord like Kil'jaeden, given 10 years.

That wouldn't help him win.

Canonically hes had few things actually hit him, so whether or not he can be killed by something else, saying their the only things that can kill him is a no limit fallacy.

Nah, MS is not powerful, its a sword/key, thats all.

1. Link without MS or light arrows, hell even with them hes technically weaker. he was a respected adviser with the ear of the king, and as Scenario said, he could control the army. hordes of daft monsters who prob shove themselves into a fight, if these Gerudo are skilled thieves a few of them shield be able to stealth him.

2. When has Ganondorf been wounded by any weapon other than the MS? the only other one that I have seen is the light sword the sages used and that pierced through him. Paladins have a vast amount of holy powers, armour, and weaponry as well as training>>>Link vs Ganon. Names and titles lol....not sure I have seen a cutscene of the arrows one hitting something. Safeguard it with poor defences, with all his powers you would have thought he can do better than a few weak monsters that a child can beat.

3. Link has no reason to be any more wise than any child, or skilled for that matter, the fact he surpasses it is just as likely a reason for them being weak, more so than him being strong since apart from all his items hes not had any special powers granted him.

4. been covered.

1. Certainly if it meant I cannot be stopped if he cannot get said item, get to said NPC to be told about another secret etc etc, without the light/silver arrows Link is hopeless, without the MS hes hopeless, without all the sages, Zelda, and the knowledge he gains from his various side kicks he would not have got as far. "numerous" probably meaning a few in each room?

He killed a guy so hes not a child? physically and mentally hes shown to be a child, unless you have legit cinematics to prove he is somehow a genius and is innately physically powerful.

2. Your assuming the Moblin is as strong as it looks yet you take no time is wondering if Link is actually as weak as he looks and the Moblin is the one who is actually weaker than he looks. Your argument is pretty much "link is small but powerful" but the Moblin is big, therefore a normal child could not beat it. From canon, we know Links not that much more (if not less so) intelligent or strong than a child.

3. I do know this, that does not mean the traps are advanced or the monsters are powerful. Your proof is apprently just the opposite of my proof, my proof is based on facts however not assumption. Links a child, fact, the puzzles are beaten therefore the puzzles and monsters are pathetic. Then you have to throw in the opposite only yours is an assumption, your assuming Link is somehow superhuman and mentally masterful because he can do them.

4. pff not powerful enough, their just pathetic and do not finish the job, Zant for example, Agahim (possessed by Ganon no less) and all these beasts Ganon unleashes. You know how serious the LK would be taken if a child defeated all his minions and reached him in Icecrown? not at all, the armies of the Horde and alliance would have laughed about him, which is what they will prob do when they find Ganon getting beaten by the local children wherever he decides to setup.

"Among the only weapons", based on? a few fallible statements from entities who have tried everything? (I doubt it). These items you realise are fairly featless? thats like me saying a Warcraft level 1 character can beat Ganon because they can get magic items and armour from the beginning of the game 😛

BT, it's been stated that the only things in Zelda capable of harming Ganondorf were the MS and Light Arrows. Right off the bat, your post is incredibly stupid.

Because I am not interested in reading how Burning Thought shame the Warcraft universe, I will just ignore the ongoing debate and say the following:

Until Azeroth realize the magnitude of the threat, Ganondorf will burn a lot in his path. Once his power is comprehended, the reborn Council of Tirisfal will once again put out their new Guardian and Ganondorf should be banished after the fight of his life.

There is no way Ganondorf can rule Azeroth. He can claim it, but there are heroes that will be his bane. All this ignoring the return of Deathwing, since Ganondorf is done for if that happens.

I never read some much fail in my life....
