lol Armos Titan? Let me edit your OP to be more 'accurate'.

I love Veran. I doubt we ever will, but I would love to see her return in the future.

Majora.

One of the most ambiguous characters in the game. Is it the Mask Salesmen? How are the kids in the moon connected to him? Will Nintendo ever answer these questions? Find out next time on DRAGONBALL Z!

Ganon/Ganondorf. I'm sorry for picking the classical Zelda villian, but every game I play where I don't get the oppurtunity to kill him just doesn't feel right.

Majora, Byrne, Igos Du Ikana, Skull Kid, Agahnim, and Dark Link are my favorites. Can I have Wind Waker Ganondorf on my list also?

Well, mine is Morpheel, due to the theme.
Morpheel isn't exactly a villain. It's just a monster. You added: Morpheel, Stallord, Giant Deku Toad, Twilight Messenger, Wizzrobe, Blizzeta, and Stalfos to the list. None of those are villains.

A villain is someone with intentions against or in opposition to the antagonist and/or sanctity of the world. Stallord is a giant reanimated skeleton, caused by Zant, a villain. Giant Deku Toad is just a giant toad. It has no evil intentions. Maybe it wants to eat you, that's because you are food to it and it needs to eat. Twilight Messenger... just puppets of Zant. Wizzrobes are just wizard-like enemies without personalities. Blizzeta is most definitely not a villain because it was the Twilit-possessed monstrosity of Yeta, who was a very kind character. And Stalfos are just reanimated skeletons by evil magic or something. For the thread's sake, I'm going to remove these choices.

Also, no double posting.

Majora's Mask and Zant. Imagine if Zant wore the mask, he would be so powerful!

SmasherLink, do you not understand what a villain is yet? This might as well just be "favorite Zelda boss/miniboss". Big difference.

firstly its spelt Vaati, and I think its said Vah-tee (think when a dentist says 'say ahh', but with a V in front)

I can see how people would like Majora's Mask just for the ambiguity surrounding the... "character." But I don't see how anyone can pick Dark Link as their favorite. He's just a carbon-copy of Link dipped in black paint, somehow with LESS personality than the person he's modeled after. Yawn.


I'd have to pick Ganondorf, just because he's the freaking man. He just flat-out looks like this powerful omnipotent ****** who could destroy the world with a single move. Honorable mentions go to Byrne for having a surprising amount of development for a Lackey (as well as his Heel Face Turn), and Malladus for essentially being the "avatar of destruction" that Zelda always lacked.

Phantom Ganon is just a phantom apparition of Ganon's (lol). It's barely a sentient being, I don't think it's a villain at all.

I think I'll have to go with Majora, even with the very little we know about him. From a design/aesthetic perspective, I am enamored with it (the mask and his boss forms). He's much more exotic and evil to me than Gannondorf or the Oracle villains.

I've always liked Vaati. I really hope he gets a lead villain role in SS (which may be possible if TMC is actually set in an Alternate Universe).

Spire is obviously irritated with this thread :laugh:

I think I like the Skull Kid the most as a villain. He didn't fight for his friends.

...
He fought because he had no friends... :(
And mostly because of the mask.

So... in theory, what would happen if Ganondorf had the mask?

He appeared in 3 LoZ titles (that's correct, isn't it?) and appears frequently enough to be considered a villain. If Dinolfos and Darknut are on the list, then Phantom Ganon really deserves to be present.

Disregard the enemies on the list. I tried explaining why they shouldn't be on there, but SmasherLink just didn't get it. Phantom Ganon is like Dark Link. Both reappear time and again, but have no motives. They are just darkness incarnate created by Ganon (in most cases).

I guess that's true. I've always thought Phantom Ganon and Dark Link have been some of the most incredible bosses in the entire series. Since Dark Link was the final boss in AoL, though, I'd probably consider him to be a true villain. Phantom Ganon could be considered a villain to a certain extent.

I like the knight guy you fight in Twilight Princess in one of the dungeons for a weapon, i forgot his name tho, but he was a good opponent and looked sick
