Well, at least that didn't happen

Exactly. Dark Link is horrifying, jokes aside. Scared me when I was a kid!

dark link is a menace to be a copy of the the hero of time, stronger even

Navi revived tho…

...good thing he learned cpr from the great exposition tree

I think it’s because of how it comes out of nowhere and with no real explanation, plus the idea of fighting your own reflection/shadow is typically a cool fight in fiction

it was pretty epic, that moment where shadow link stands on your sword forever established him as one of the best boss fights. The actual boss of the water temple is so much lamer by comparison

​​@@sparkydoodle696this only in oot, if they aren't careful enough it becomes link and his generic black copy, i noticed that some of you never played Twilight princess or majoras mask that came before, the thing that makes oot good is not the lack of quality for being an older game, the other ones also show how much potential a sequel with same play style and similar story has, these 3 games know how to be different and similar from each other and that's why they are so good that quality doens't even matter(majora's mask) and that they could still reutilize the same play style but with more quality (Twilight princess)

Deserves it

You havent seen "la leyenda de melda" parody

Dark Link's marriage to a Zora gal?

dark link also being speed demon?

​@@lucas_leoheart he wasn't the speed demon otherwise link would be speedruned

@@NawRed i could say the side stepping was kind of a way of speedrunning by some speedrunner irl, but okay

@@lucas_leoheart a real speedrunner wouldn't have wasted what looked like hours looking for one small key.

1:22 Ruto: (in Heavy’s voice) *_KISS ME_*

They're perfect for each other❤

he what??? i never actually noticed that in the game, thats so cool!!

@@inker_monkeyyup and when that happens the fight only gets harder, he doesn’t only copy your same movements but he will also turn out to be more aggressive and more determined to kill you, if you jump with the sword right into him he will dodge it and inmediatly do the same thing dealing damage, he will start to attack first and chase you constantly like he has now a mind of his own and not a reflection anymore

@@inker_monkey yeah he starts off just copying your moves, but then as the fight goes on eventually his eyes turn red, and he becomes a solid black color, and he just starts going crazy on you.

And he has more HP he more heart containers you currently have meaning in 3 hearts run he very easy but if you have let's say 15 hearts he becomes a lot harder

​@@moustachelink8919 weirdly, compared to the n64 version, in the 3ds version Dark Link's a bit buggy and many can see it for themselves on that version via using only the Master Sword. from slower sword-swings due to the framerate on OOT 3ds, to strangely, literally never doing a jump attack counter. in 3ds he leaps sideways and upwards in a glitchy state when you do a jump attack, to the point you have to spam jump attack into a wall, and make both links models overlap as you jump attack, which makes 3ds Dark Link finally jump attack. 3ds Dark Link also has a weird quirk where he will not counter-attack Link on his thrusts every 2nd jump on Link's sword if you spam thrusts. but as far as I recall, N64 Dark Link will Counter Link's Thrust just about every time without fail. another obscure, and weirdly very unknown thing for years, is N64 Dark Link can actually do a Spin attack, but under certain circumstances since he never does it normally. from what I remember, it requires a combination of Deku Nuts/arrows as well as spamming spin attack to force him to do a Spin attack. when in specifically his aggressive phase, he can consistently do it as he reappears and you spam spin attack. I assume the reason for Dark Link's forced spin attack in these conditions is because he has no room to backflip away from it or for some reason, cannot do so. so he uses the spin attack to attack you.

I love Terminal

Basically every Nintendo or Treyarch game 😂

Badass.

It's a thing he does in-game. Backflips and sinks into the shallow pool just like here, although I don't remember him kicking you with the flip 😂

No, he suffered a destiny worse than death... MARRIAGE (This is a joke, no offence to married people reading this)

Shadow Link standing on Link's sword is actually something that happens in-game, it's such a legendary moment that terminalmontage HAD to reference it.

Pretty sure its a Kill Bill reference

SICK 😎

Girl was grateful to be saved by him lol

Lol. Now we know why

there's also an unused AI behavior in N64 Dark Link's Spin attack, since he never uses that normally. but you can actually force it to happen in N64, via from what I recall, a combination of Deku nuts and spamming spin attack(you have to do this to be able to force Dark Link to spin attack). but he has to be in his aggressive phase for it to work. eventually he will be forced to do a spin attack. from what I remember this specifically only happens if he reappears by link as he's spamming spin attacks. Dark Link for a strange reason, will use a Spin attack instead of backflipping away. this is a very obscure thing for N64 Dark Link, but it works pretty consistently

It crazy how much thought they put into the dark link fight 😩

You know what now that you meantion it I think he did do that during one of my OOT Randomizer runs...

Hope he enjoys the taste of tuna 😉

​@@invisanon from both sets of fish lips.

@@nefariosgliscorbruh…

​@@nefariosgliscor Get that taste of the sea.

Happy is debatable

The joke is stolen from awkward zombie lol

@@tinyetoile5503 someone else did that joke? where is it cause i didn't steal it on purpose lol

​@hobgobigan6602 no i mean the joke of winning the fight by having Ruto come in and marry Dark Link was already done by a fairly well known video game comic artist. The comic is "to dodge a doppelganger" by awkwardzombie, made in 2007.

Fish Yandere-ness

Goddamn it don’t make my ptsd worse please

AHHHHHH

*use Deku*

"I am thou Thou are I"

“Just spam spin attack or use the hammer or Din’s Fire. You got this!”

“You must defeat yourself to be yourself”

@@eLite-Tiss91”Thou hast acquired a new vow!”

Na himself was about to kill him 😂😊

Well of course he would! *He’s your shadow.* 😈

I actually beat Dark Link with a Broken Giant’s Knife…

I love the fact that link is genuinely afraid of the meme😅

It was at this moment Link had enough and tried quitting the fight 😂

The Edge of Green. Man, Radiant Historia felt like it could've been so much more. Just two parallel timelines? They never even recolored the main character's sword after Atlus told them to ditch their vision. A game about a magic parallel dimension traveling sword would've been so much cooler than a game about some blonde guy with an inexplicably blue sword that he doesn't actually pick up until the end of the game. Screw you, Atlus.

Link is a good person!

Yeah, beating Dark Link at his own game, swordplay only, was definitely one of the most epic things you can ever do to challenge yourself in Zelda. One of the hardest too, doing it that way was harder than the Ganon fight.

You kinda sound like a nob
