Loosing a mask doesn't make him important, it makes him a plot point. He owned the mask, got mugged and made Link go out to get it (seriously, what a jerk). If Link's uncle didn't go out and get killed, A Link to The Past wouldn't have happened, are you saying he's an important character?
To that particular game yes.
Vaati has a lot of significance, that's true, and I never denied that. Skull Kid is debatable, but he was important in MM and one (could be the same, we don't know) made an appearance in TP, so you could argue his chances are better than Midna. However, if you really think that HMS is more important to the Series than Midna and has a better chance than her, then you are seriously a lost cause and there's no point in wasting my time on you. Besides this is going really off topic anyway.
HMS was important in one game just like Midna but he was also in more games than Midna so thats why I think he has better chances whats so hard to understand about that?
I think I've already posted my picks, and they haven't changed sinse then so, yeah
