No, I'm not, I 'm taking canon information from the games. Know what IS a gameplay mechanic? Ganon blocking a lot.you're still taking into account gameplay mechanics
I don't as of yet...but the way I see it now ...we would be eliminating the whole thought of physics then...I understand physics, you're not understanding my stance on it. Real life physics involved in that would obviously kill a /normal person/. Link is not a normal person, at all. He also threw the Goron after stopping it, the boots anchored him.
Once again that's a game mechanic pulled from canon to further a plotline...it disregards real world physics in multiple ways...making it unviable, yes ganon blocking a lot is mechanic- but it is expressive of the fact that Ganon has ALWAYS been a formidable swordsman. He's not superhuman- be he's formidable enough to maybe master Link from what I've readExcept we saw Link win a sword lock, and we know these are not normal people. If we apply real life physics to them, we don't need to make them into normal people. It's only unrealistic for a normal person to do these things, a theoretical super human, which these two are, could do these things.
Even so, if we ignore the Goron thing, Link still wins in a sword lock, so Ganon's still not taking the advantage in strength.
Yet again, he doesn't have to directly put his sword directly in front of his face:Ganon can't see, he has a sword infront of his eyes, because he put it there to gaurd his face.. Link shoots his ungaurded arm-pits, and wins.

Except this would be a perfectly viable way to look at it in real life physics, so it doesn't break any rules.So Link was able to stop gorons or whatever. How does that translate into RL?
So Link has muscles that are SOO compact that even though every muscle tissue is wafer-thin, they can support 100 lbs?
No.
Sorry man but I'm starting to sense denial in your arguments.Except this would be a perfectly viable way to look at it in real life physics, so it doesn't break any rules.
Ignoring the characters actual abilities is a flawed way to argue, because it's not actually arguing the characters at all, it's arguing look a likes. Nothing about stopping the goron defies physics, because he has an anchor, it simply shows great strength and durability.
I saw that episode, katanas can cut through bulletsYet again, he doesn't have to directly put his sword directly in front of his face:

If Ganon's strength allows him to hold his sword with one hand and seeing how he is skillful with his weapon he could possibly do what happens in the video.
And I'm starting to realise a lot of yours won't make realistic sense. You've already linked a video to a fictional fight between ficitonal characters in a turn based game as part of an argument.Sorry man but I'm starting to sense denial in your arguments.
Unless Ganon is a super athlete, like ZSS, he won't dodge the arrow.Football field = 100 yards.
1 mile = 1,617y (yards).
23mph*1,617y = 37,191 yph (yards per hour).
37,191 yph/3600s (one hour) = 10.33 yps (yards per second).
100y/10.33yps = 9.68s
Here it is.
Did you even see the video I posted? Ganon doesn't have to block his face to stop an arrow.And I'm starting to realise a lot of yours won't make realistic sense. You've already linked a video to a fictional fight between ficitonal characters in a turn based game as part of an argument.
If we go by your 'Ganon blocks his face', argument, his arm pits are exposed. That's how plate armour works.

Link doesn't have that anchor this time now does he...Except this would be a perfectly viable way to look at it in real life physics, so it doesn't break any rules.

Yes, but moving your body is another thing.Maybe you should check out the "If chars. Were True to their Games" thread. Because everything you're saying would fit alot better in that thread.
@MRG
Human reaction time would give Ganon enough tome to dodge. An arrow goes pretty darn fast, but human reaction is faster.
You telling me that if Ganon shoved that thing in Link's belly, it wouldn't do anything?Unless Ganon is a super athlete, like ZSS, he won't dodge the arrow.
ET:
That the darksword is like this:
Stabbing someone with it is out of the question.
Nah, that thread's full of no-limit fallacies, gameplay mechanics, and bias. They use HP bars..Maybe you should check out the "If chars. Were True to their Games" thread. Because everything you're saying would fit alot better in that thread.

Ganon's not several tons of rolling stone in motion, now is he?Link doesn't have that anchor this time now does he...
But he's a couple hundred pounds! plus rush accelerationGanon's not several tons of rolling stone in motion, now is he?
lol, the chain mail only prevents cuts and amputations, however, the motion in which Ganon's blade is going is still transferred into Link's body, causing internal bleeding and the loss of his kidneys (lol)No it wouldn't. It cannot pierce, it can only slash. Chainmail will protect link.
So is Link, Link doesn't have to approach either, he's got a bow, and in close combat, he has a shield. He's obviously got the upper hand physicly, the onyl physical advantage Ganon has in your scenario is his mass. Link doesn't have to stand there and try to halt Ganon.But he's a couple hundred pounds! plus rush acceleration
Still a force

lol your posts always amuses meHehe, if he COULD hit Link.
By then, he is beheaded.
Point is, only fast sword motion Ganon has (trust) is rendered useless. Instead, he will have to go with slow slashes.
With a lot of lag.
If he covers his fac,e his arm pits are open, and Link shoots there instead, and Ganon's blocking. Ganon can't rush, because Link can keep firing, Medieval archers could fire an arrow once every six seconds, and Ganon will be blind if he covers his face. If he rushes, he's left open, and if he gets in close, Link has a sword and shield, and is stronger, and less restricted in his movements. Link's sword has a point, and can get at Ganon's unarmoured sections, and once Ganon's lost momentum, and has engaged in close combat, Link's superior strength comes into play.*points to previous methods of ganon blocking*=>body tackle=>manhandle
So if Link shoots an arrow at his head and ganon blocks it then Link fires another at his pit. So ganondorf won't have the ability to move his sword just a few inches to cover his pit? Ganon wouldn't need to rush as would he not be able to dodge and block arrows until Link ran out? He will eventually. Medieval archers would have to train for years just to get that speed and it doesn't take more than 6 seconds just to move a sword to another part of your body. So once Links out of arrows he'll have no choice but to approach and just because Link stopped a gordon or whatever it's called makes him automatically stronger? I'll give him the less restricted part. Just because Link's sword has a point doesn't mean Ganon can't dodge it. I still think the whole Link's stronger thing is bull of course he'd win in a swordlock though since he's the hero. Link's shield isn't going to just absorb all the impact from Ganon's shield either, a hit from that thing will send him flying if not stunned for a moment of which Ganon can do whatever he wants. Just because Ganon's huge does not mean he's slow as heck and have the reaction time of a sloth either.If he covers his fac,e his arm pits are open, and Link shoots there instead, and Ganon's blocking.

Half of that falls into the magic category, and isn't allowe,d IE, Pikachu's thunder, and half isn't explainable by physics. Super strength =/= calling down lightning, and meshes with real world physics just fine.@new guy
So that means that Sonic shoulda just gone Super Saiyan and wiped out the opposition because it's completely canon and thusly realistic?
Or how about the fact that Olimars Pikmin were able to pierce steel in their games, but not able to pierce reptile scales against Bowser?
And how about Pikachu being able to use Thunder, a devastating attack, to win MU's.
None of that would transition into RL.
Just because it was possible in game doesn't mean it's possible IRL.
Not necessarily. They could just be extremely dense, like carbon fibers, and as a result, capapble of surviving such extreme tensions. It doesn't defy physics at all, it messes with biology quite a bit, but he's not human.but how could even a superhuman's muscles work given the body structure?
link's muscles are way too small for this kind of strength
