Can 20 NPCs Defeat a LYNEL? | Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom

Today I'm gathering EVERY Monster Control Crew together for an epic battle against a lynel! Why should Link have to do all the dirty work himself?

One time I picked up one of the wandering NPCs who is always fighting a Bokoblin, and flew him up to the sky islands near the Water Temple. Unfortunately, he wouldn't fight the constructs up there and just froze up. Sometimes it feels like Nintendo *didn't* want Link to transport NPCs all over Hyrule, but that's just crazy!

[@RaidFiftyOne]

I'm pretty sure most things break if you take them to a level there not supposed to be on. Because Horses (and apparently NPCs) stop doing anything one they go to the depths or sky.

[@h0tmeat_bagel]

LMAOOOO shout out to the orchestra that was blastin' like HELL to make the largest... yet quietest battle a little less ~awkward~ oh my it felt so intimate with all twenty troops just silently battling their hearts out making the Lionel sound like super embarrassing when he made any sound at all... I feel like I saw something I wasn't supposed to. I thank you endlessly for this, Dr. Thorny.

Yknow something interesting? Theres an NPC on Eventide (hes part of the MCC) that rewards you with a Blue Lynel Saber Horn for completing the islands quest. Gives you an idea of how capable the Monster Control Crew CAN be. I can just imagine they took some casualties.

[@AstroNautkaify]

I don't remember well but wasn't he saying something like he just found this horn somewhere? Anyway I also think that in terms of ingame world NPC warriors can do a lot more than they're doing when Link is there

Crazy to me they did as much damage as they did. If it was a lower level Lynel they might have done it. Also, those transitions are so dang clean

[@joe-and-pippi]

Hey, thorny! It's Pippi! Remember me? I suggested monster airlines. Awesome game show! The next thing I think you should do is make a gleeok fight a talus with muddle buds! it really works.

[@doofuscawt]

ee

[@ThornyFox]

I can imagine the chaos! Have you gotten it to work? I tried once but the Gleeok wouldn't stop targeting me

[@TheWigglergler]

@@ThornyFox IIRC muddle buds don't work on Gleeoks. You have to get the Gleeok to not see you for it to fight the Talus. They're very reluctant to fight and don't quite know what to do though, so it'll really just amount to the Talus pelting rocks at a stationary Gleeok until the Gleeok notices you.

[@user-oz3cz8sp8p]

Since she said it really works i would assume so so please try it out

[@joe-and-pippi]

@@ThornyFox idk, it has to be perfect

[@thomazplays9305]

I mean, that guy from the quest at eventide island does give you a blue lynel horn, and even says it was obtained in a monster control crew mission so it doesn't make sense that they lost

[@user-sj3nr6nb1z]

0:31 Think you can kill a Lynel? As many times as it takes. XD

[@jaydensuzuki4260]

Thorny is for sure paying these guys to do the dirty work. 😂

[@mht1890]

Been watching your videos for almost a month now, and I really admire the work you put into it. Not only you enjoy making these videos but you also turn our days enjoyable by watching your adventures.

[@JeromyBranch]

I was surprised when they actually fought back! So well done as always.

[@JoFo-cl6ro]

Definitely earned your like on this one. Mad respect for the effort put into it, and very entertaining! Suggestion: Yiga clan vs lynel?

[@ThornyFox]

One Yiga would probably fail... but if I can get a whole army together with a glitch it might be possible:0

I’ve been watching your videos for about a year, and I am really glad that you are still creating high-quality videos for Zelda! Thank you so much :D Greetings from Hong Kong 🇭🇰

These transitions are perfection. 👌🏻 The photo at the end. 😂😂😂 And the F-Zero X music threw me back into my childhood so hard. I didn’t even know I had that stored in my memory, but I identified it immediatelyyyy

[@atgosh]

Videos like this are while I'll still be watching TotK content 7 years after the next game comes out. When creativity says 'You can't go any farther', Zelda players say 'Hold my steering stick'

[@HyruleLUNATIC]

Amazing video! to get even more NPCs you can actually abduct travellers with weapons to reinforce your NPC army. they don't deal as much as the crew, but help to tank damage for them XD

How do you do the transitions? Bc its pretty cool. Btw can you try ganondorf VS king gleeok or another big monster? It would have been cool.

Getting twelve people on a flying machine is as impressive as anything else that happens along the way… I’m not sure how long you worked on that…but thank you. Your video shows possibilities that I didn’t know existed. I am grateful….Tom

Great video! I have a kind of unrelated question though. Do you know where to find that massive stone platform you used in that video a while back where “Link builds his own sky island”? I’m trying to find it but I can’t.

I got it from the Kimayat Shrine (Proving Grounds: Smash) which is right near gut check rock. It’s the widest object in the game!

[@Interestking]

I just started the video and I'm already impressed by that transition, and it led to me wondering something. Do you think you will ever run out of original ways to transition, and if so, what will you do then?

[@ThornyFox]

Good question! I might try to re-use old transitions in new ways or combine multiple to make new ones.

[@smash154]

That was very interesting and hilarious 😅😂. Maybe next time you can have some NPCS fight Ganondorf 😅😅

[@prohsodie]

Other than him they have Urbosa, (dead) Mipha, (dead), Daruk, (dead) Ravioli, (dead) Tulin, Riju, Yunobo, and Sidon. And the last 4 only attack every 30 seconds!!!
