What has he done to makr himself more noble? History has nothing to do with it. How is he more skilled? He knows some basic earth martial arts and some kryptonian ones, but link is a master at any handful of weaponry. And why is he more heroic? Does link not make sacrifices for the greater good? I recall you saying in another thread, that link was pure and noble without any form of tarnish. Do you take that back now?
Dear lord. Are you a paste alt ? That would make sense with the rubbish you're posting.
Link is taught and trained with very little experience compared to Superman who lives in a more dangerous universe where a sword isn't made to defeat his antagonist.
He is noble but Superman is more noble. There are leagues of heroes and Link doesn't even approach these comic book gods.
Wonder Woman picking it up while Superman couldn't makes me think its not as simple as just being a good person. I think its more about being a warrior or something closer to Thor's own attributes as a measure.
In which case I don't know. Link is definitely a warrior, but he doesn't particularly strike me as very hardcore or that he stands out as a warrior that much.

Wasn't Masterson a special case where he had to become Thor to save his life or something? I haven't actually read the issues involving Masterson Thor.

Being a good person in of itself doesn't mean you can lift Mjolnir. It's a combination between being good in the general, pure of heart, and a noble warrior who looks beyond himself for the greater good, able to make tough choices.
I think it's a tough question to ask because each Link (for the most part according to LoZ canon) is different, and virtually all of them have little in the way of character development. Link's basically a blank canvas, and while he is undoubtedly one of gaming's greatest characters, as far as actual character goes, he seems to be lacking in my honest opinion.
The Hero og Time has straight up dialogue if you count the hero's shade. He seems like a nice enough guy, just a little hard on himself and others. I think Supes problem was he's a lover not a fighter. One of the requirements seems to be the desire to bust some heads... for justice, of course.

The depiction of the Hero of Time actually reminds me pretty strongly of Thor in God of Thunder. (Which by the way is ****ing amazing and you need to read. Seriously great shit.)
He also has MM, which is a very big, interactive character study for him, really.

Among Wonder Woman, Conan, Captain America, and Beta Ray Bill, there does seem to be a pattern of Soldiers/Warriors going on. Someone mentioned a Spiderman, does he fit? Aside from that there's the paramedic who might not be a fighter. Still, that's one commonality between quite a few wielders, and Superman notably doesn't fit in that category very well.
