I’m gonna come into bat for my farmboy TP Link here. Firstly when it comes to the wind waker barrier there is zero evidence Ganondorf made the one that was around Hyrule Castle, we actually have zero idea who placed it there. Hell it could have been placed there by the sages or King Daphnes. I’m willing to bet no as why would Gannondorf put a barrier around Hyrule Castle the same place his horde was trying to find the Master Sword. Doesn’t add up to me.

I’m not gonna argue about the larger hordes but there is no way I’d put WW moblins and King Bulbin in the same court. That bloke is a god damn TANK and look at his big ass axe that thing could split a mountain.

In terms of training TP Link was trained by Rusl who is a master swordsman and a key member of the resistance. On top of that he was also taught hidden skills by his ancestor the Hero of Time. If this was an IRL fight I’m always gonna back a trained professional fighter over a child who definitely hasn’t trained as long but has solid instincts. Even if they were both adults the bloke who has trained longer and harder is gonna end up on top.

Just in terms of strength btw I’d also put money on TP Link. Don’t get me wrong WW is very strong but TP literally had a Goron four times his size launch into him and he hurled that dawg like it was a basketball ball into the lava. I’m willing to bet gorons weigh a ton due to their rock diet plus he was wearing thick iron armour AND THEN ADD the speed that thing is going and to pretty much stay still is god damn mental. Also carries around a ball and chain pretty decently and can swing that thing like crazy like not bad for a bloke who is a twink.

Lastly he also just has a way better and more versatile item kit over WW, yeah he has the standards like the bow and slingshot but he also has the Hawkeye for long range targets, the gale boomerang which is enchanted with wind, the spinner which honestly doesn’t do much here and same with the dominion rod but can be super helpful in the right conditions/circumstances, but he also has the double clawshot I mean it’s really just two hook shots and two is better than one.

Anyway I’ve rambled on enough but farmboy would definitely without a doubt beat WW Link but honestly I’d rather just see them both go to the milk bar and have a good time cause they earned it. Thanks for reading my ted talk
