@@JimMilton-ej6zi Wind waker Link is hilarious if you think about it, in wind waker, he basically just starts as a boy on an island and his only motivation was to save people, he picked up a sword with no training whatsoever and immediately learnt how to properly use a sword from orca. He picked up a baton and immediately knew how to conduct. He sailed across the great sea determined to find his sister/ save the princess. He had to force the gods to choose him by finding all the tri force shards. Then later he goes an establishes an entire new Hyrule with Tetra and STILL gets treated like an idiot.

He also has fairies to his disposal, which, in theory, allow him to come back from the dead indefinitely so long as he can restock on them from time to time. You would never get a game over. He can also jump on LAVA without dying. Sure, he takes damage, but still, it's more impressive than Mario. He also still has boomerangs, he can skip time with firecamps, he can fast travel, magic rods, a wider arrow variety than other Links and can carry more arrows than any other Link. A bigger variety of bombs whose carry amount is infinite, since they are the rune. He can also identify enemies from a distance with the camera.

[@mr.sniffly5297]

Actually, Gannon is only defeated once in this video as future appearances were spelled Ganon 🤓

[@kanko3477]

in THAT timeline, not the other timelines

[@Merennulli]

There are at least 3 Ganondorfs, each of which produced at least 1 Gannon/Ganon, and there are 3 timelines with the 2nd Ganondorf/Ganon. So plenty of room to defeat a Ganon once and for all. If it's unclear - the first Ganondorf is the one from TotK that is retroactively placed at the founding of the kingdom of Hyrule sometime after Skyward Sword. The second Ganondorf is the one we see in OoT. Four Swords Adventures is said to have a Ganondorf who reincarnated, which would be a 3rd. Though debated (due to Miyamoto claiming there is only one Ganon despite that clearly being false even then) and exclusive to that timeline. The various phantom Ganons are technically Ganons, but most people wouldn't count them as they're minions of another Ganon. I'm also going to keep chains of Ganon (ie. revived or attempted to revive) together. So we have: - Calamity Ganon and his transformations from Ganondorf 1. This is technically defeated for the final time in BotW, but only because of how TotK ended. - Ganon from OoT which is defeated once and for all at the end of OoT in the Adult Timeline (separate from Ganondorf's defeat once and for all in Wind Waker) - That same Ganon from OoT is killed in the Downfall Timeline in LttP. You could argue what Twinrova brought back in the Oracle games was a separate mindless beast, but it's the same Ganon in body at least. Link Between Worlds revives him arguably as a separate Yuga Ganon, but it's still from the same origin and mind. Again, revived and killed in the original game, and revived again in the game over screen of Zelda 2. You could argue the original Zelda is this one's "once and for all" but they could always stick another on the end of this timeline. - The Child Timeline has a new incarnation of Ganon that briefly comes into existence in Twilight Princess before being destroyed, and then Ganondorf 2 that it derived from is killed in that timeline. - Also in the Child Timeline, Ganondorf 3 is introduced in Four Swords Adventures, who gathers a trident and other powerful artifacts to become a new Ganon, which is sealed in the Four Sword (NOT defeated once and for all). So that's 5 separate Ganons, 3 of which are defeated once and for all, with the other 2 either sealed away or getting revived with no indication that someone can't just revive them again. Ganondorf 2's OoT Ganon might get revived in the Downfall Timeline, and Ganondorf 3's Ganon might get unsealed in the Child Timeline.

If we go by age then WW link is around the same age of Majora's Mask Link (10-11) not Oot Link (9-10) because he was too young to use certain items properly like bow and shield so he was little older. If we go by lore the master sword in WW was under powered because the sages were dead. If we go by difficulty then Oot had more dungeons, monsters and a Ganondorf that ruled over 7 years and had the triforce, while in WW we had fewer dungeons not under the influence of Ganondorf that recently escaped and didn't had the triforce in the final battle.

Between the Hero of Time and the Hero of Legend, I'd give the edge to the latter. Yes, the Hero of Time trained the Hero of Twilight, but the Hero of Legend is more than hinted to be Gramps from A Link Between Worlds, and serves as both the hardest (optional) boss in the game and as the behind the scenes mentor for the Link of that age. All of that as an old man, so it's clear he's passed down a significant legacy of warrior training. And most convincingly--he succeeds specifically where the Hero of Time falls. He cleaned up a Ganon with the FULL triforce that Ganon got by DEFEATING the Hero of Time, which IMHO solidly places him in the number one spot.

Something to factor, which people often forget, is that BotW Link was effectively a prodigy on the level of DBZ and fought like he was in Hyrule Warriors. He could beat grown men in duels at age FOUR, drew the Master Sword at 13, fought armies of monsters on his own, and only fell because he was simultaneously protecting Zelda and fending off dozens of guardians at once. His pre-game exploits pretty much overshadow the accolades of all but the most experienced Links even factoring their game adventures. The reason for this being forgotten is likely the fact Age of Calamity ignored this backstory in favor of having him be a gifted, but common, knight, as he'd have already possessed the Master Sword for at least 4 years if they went off the botw backstory. (Assuming he's around 17-18 when the Calamity hit)

Yeah imo the hero of the sky should be the strongest as he is the VERY FIRST LINK and he was the origin of a lot of the other links abilities, also im pretty sure hero of the sky has the best sword play as its literally the only game with huge emphasis on sword play and motions. While twighlight some how scored higher

He's powerful no doubt. But when BOTW Link kills a god damn lynel with a pot lid as a child can increase his speed by up to 12 times the norm (albeit for short bursts.) Can literally freeze enemies in a god damn time prison and summon lightning, an unbreakable shield, a powerful vortex giving him better aerial mobility and is for the most part immortal as he can be not only revived but brought back to beyond full strength upon receiving a fatal blow. And the goddamn cherry on top he's taken the master sword to a level never seen before and has arrows that are literally one way tickets to Oblivion. (And if you consider it Canon BOTW Link can wear the feirce deity set giving him God like strength and shooting his atk power through the roof). Twilight princess Link is a fantastic swordsman with a great amount of versatility in his arsenal, training from one of the strongest heroes of all time, and the magic armor which will make him drop his life savings before he gets hurt, it doesn't really matter when BOTW Link just has a stronger arsenal and utilities that could allow him to completely bypass the effectiveness of the magic armor. Every hero on this list is extremely strong in one way or another. But for whatever reason BOTW Link was born with an insane natural talent for combat, and his adventures to rescue the fallen champions and the princess have probably made him more experienced. Truth be told any of the other heroes in Zelda who would challenge him to a duel would be better classified as suicidal than a combatant.

Yeah, you can say that *Breath Of The Wild Link* got powerful, but he spent the *ENTIRE* game looking for his memories because he forgot everything. Then *Tears of the Kingdom Link* did get powerful again because it was the same guy, however *Rauru* took his power/arm back and left *Link* the way he originally had been.

[@marcooshendlesun4211]

Technically botw link went through 2 adventures. 1 before he was put in the resurrection chamber, and a second one after awakening. Edit a year later: yes technically it will be 3 adventures soon. I’d also say that most links would have ended up the same in the 1st battle with the calamity as none of them have really faced that dangerous of a surprise attack once the guardians had turned on them, plus the responsibility of protecting zelda most likely hindered his ability to fully battle up until the very end where she unlocked her fate. Also at least to my understanding, calamity ganon is supposed to be like the ultimate form of raw evil or something, so I’d assume that’d be a pretty powerful foe. Just my opinion though, I still think fierce deity would win overall.

[@thevetolinist8462]

and a third one on the next game

[@dizzyteaa]

yes, but i think its hinted at that "100 years before present botw Link" is not that strong? certainly not strong enough to face Calamity Ganon at least.

[@charleswashington3973]

Maxmagicbanana I mean, he was strong enough to so perfectly fill his shoes as the wielder of the Master Sword That Zelda was jealous and felt insecure about how perfect he was seemingly at his role while she questioned her ability to be the Hero of Wisdom.

@@charleswashington3973 Completely true, also the fact that that first time around Link didn't receive any aid from the Divine Beasts.

That's true, however, he doesn't remember anything after the shrine. The memories allow him to remember what happened, but probably not all his moves and technique from before.

[@jamesknowles5166]

Not that he would have won, but I think Twilight's ability to transform into Wolf Link should have been mentioned, as it would have bumped him up a few spots...

It helps agility sure, but vs any Link with a sword (All of them), wolf Link just gets cut up :(
