The Master Sword doesn't allow you to time travel at will. In Ocarina of Time, Link just wasn't ready to be the hero.The monado can see through the future and equips power ups
The master sword can vanquish evil and go back in time or in the future
master sword wins.
True, but it has its downsides.Kind of tricky to to discuss it without spoilers, so I'll do my best to keep this simple and say the Monado. The ability to see the future and alter your physical attributes at will is pretty godly in terms of potential practical applications, while the Master Sword is, at its core, just a very powerful enchanted blade that kills evil things.
BrilliantWell if it was a fight. link would win, the Monado can't cut people
Indeed. It can't harm homs, though whether that applies specifically to that particular race or in general to all organic life isn't really clear from what I recall.True, but it has its downsides.
It's kind of a circular argument here about which is more powerful. We know the Master Sword is powerful because it's the only thing that can kill Ganondorf, but how do we know Ganondorf is powerful? Because he wields the Triforce of Power, of course!They said:How do we know Gandalf is powerful?
Because he fought a Balrog.
And how do we know that Balrogs are powerful?
...Because one fought Gandalf!
Oh well then the Master Sword hands-down.I'm talking about the very first form of The Monado.
Evidence?Oh well then the Master Sword hands-down.
It's shiny and kills evils.
Monado cant do any harm to Link then.Evidence?
So.... Master Sword wins?Monado cant do any harm to Link then.
Guess so.So.... Master Sword wins?
Well. Technically, you said that Link isn't a human.Guess so.
The Monado cant harm homs, which are humans but in Xenoblade terms(said in the wiki) Link is a hylian(difference are the pointy elf ears, etc) - oh lol now I know what you mean by that, I was thinking the other way around/Well. Technically, you said that Link isn't a human.
The debate is still on!The Monado cant harm homs, which are humans but in Xenoblade terms(said in the wiki) Link is a hylian(difference are the pointy elf ears, etc) - oh lol now I know what you mean by that, I was thinking the other way around/
Welp, looks like Link winsThe debate is still on!
The Monado is incapable of harming Homs, possibly all living beings. It's reasonable to believe that it would be incapable of harming any human-like creature as a logical result.
The Master Sword is the strongest weapon Link can acquire in the story in most games, with only the likes of Biggoron's Sword and the Tempered Sword surpassing it as optional super-weapons. It's also the only thing capable of delivering the final blow to Ganondorf, renowned as the immortal wielder of the Triforce of Power and a being of God-like potency and absolute physical fortitude.
Yep. Master Sword wins.Welp, looks like Link wins
"The Hylians are a race of humans from the countries of Skyloft, Hyrule and the latter's flooded counterpart, the Great Sea. While it is unlikely that the people of Termina, a parallel world to the Kingdom of Hyrule, are also known as Hylians, they are their parallels. Descended from the people who lived among the goddess Hylia long prior to the establishment of Hyrule as a kingdom, they are a magic race with pointed ears who have inherited the blood, powers and abilities of their ancient ancestors. The most famous Hylians are the many heroes and princesses that share the same name as one another, the latter being of blood relation and naming tradition."

But it also can't cut high entia, so I said humans. but what I meant to say is It can't cut human life forum, so that would include human high entia hylian ectBrilliant
no one thought of tha-
wait, I thought it said the Monado couldn't cut homs(human but in Xenoblade terms) only, but could cut anything else
and Link is hylian, that's different from a human.
But alas, the Monado has better design modelOne last point:
Although the Monado can alter its wielder's stats at the wielder's behest, the Master Sword is naturally as powerful as it can possibly be, and it can only be wielded by a true hero. Consider how we only ever see Link wielding it, because he's the only one with the necessary willpower and courage required to control its awesome power. It even puts him to sleep until he's mature and focused enough to attain its true power - as a child, he is simply too weak-willed and innocuous to possess its godly strength.
Now, if we're talking about the full potential of those weapons, then the Monado wins easily, for reasons I shall not spoil. The Master Sword doesn't really scale or get any better, it's just a very, very powerful weapons naturally. It is, at its core, just a big shiny divine blade, and this is quite literally a double-edged sword: on the one hand, it has no supra-natural or magical powers to speak of, yet on the other, it's capable of killing anything that would ordinarily be killed by having a big sharp piece of metal stuck into its guts, whereas the Monado is physically incapable of harming organic life because reasons. That alone ensures that, purely as a martial weapon and a tool for combat, the Master Sword is the superior blade.
But at the end of the day, they're both cool, so the real winner here is good times!
Did I mention Galaxia has a fire gem on it from a fire god and the owner's own cape can manipulate space?Neither. The real stronger sword is the Ragnell.
