100 years ago, the Kingdom of Hyrule had a plan to defeat Calamity Ganon. Following in their ancestors footsteps, they had Guardians, a princess with divine sealing powers, a hero with the Sword that Seals the Darkness, and four Champions with Divine Beasts.
Zora Champion and pilot of Divine Beast Vah Ruta.
Gerudo Campion and pilot of Divine Beast Vah Naboris.
Goron Champion and pilot of Divine Beast Vah Rudania.
Rito Champion and pilot of Divine Beast Vah Medoh.
He’s Mastersword3710 and I’m ElectroPop. And it’s our job to analyze their weapons, armor, and skills to find out who’d win, a Death Battle.

Zora’s Domain, an area known for having water, Zoras, and the worst dungeons in any Zelda game. You forgot the home of “The most annoying princess since Princess Elise”. Not in Breath of the Wild, at least. Daughter of King Dorephan and brother of Prince Sidon (AKA, the best prince to exist), Mipha’s importance to Hyrule was obvious from her birth. Yep, her importance and leader of her home got Zelda interested. Not just Zelda, but the King of Hyrule, King Rhoam. So much so that she would be chosen to pilot of the Divine Beast that was found near Zora’s Domain. Background:
-Name: Mipha.
-Race: Zora.
-Zora Princess.
-Zora Champion of Hyrule.
-Pilot of Divine Beast Vah Ruta.
-Has a crush on Link.
-Has the best brother ever.
Being a Zora, Mipha’s extremely quick and mobile when in water. She can even swim up waterfalls. Not a lot of creatures can do this feat in real life. Salmon and a special kind of Goby are the only kind of animals able to swim upstream and even 100 meter tall waterfalls. The one Mipha swam up looks even higher. By how she and Sidon go up, their movement is similar to salmon. Salmon move by jumping through the sheer force of the water, meaning Mipha used enough force in her body to jump through the water and keep going. Ergo, she is physically strong. It goes even further than that. If we look at the memory, Champion Mipha’s Song, we can see Mipha swim up Veiled Falls. It’s not the tallest waterfall in the game, but it’s still rather big. And Link with the Zora Armor can swim up it in approximately 7 seconds. While the exact height of the waterfall is unknown, if we lowball its height to 100 meters, and say Mipha takes as much time as Link, which is 7 seconds, Mipha’s swimming speed would be 18.64 mph. And that’s lowballing Mipha. Since she’s a Zora, she should be swimming at a faster rate than Link. Mipha would also be able to form her body for quick swimming like dolphins. I can science! Mipha’s not just graceful in the water, she’s also graceful in combat. Despite her rather small size and feeble appearance, she’s a really good spearman. Mipha wields the Lightscale Trident. This weapon was forged the day she was born in celebration. She also has an ability no other Zora possessed; healing.Weapon/Ability:
Lightscale Trident:
-Mipha’s signature weapon.
-Created when Mipha was born.
-Attack power: 22.
-Durability: 70.
Mipha’s Grace:
-Any ability unique to Mipha.
-Can heal any wounds.
-In the hands of Link, can revive him from the dead.
Mipha doesn’t have to fight on her own, though. She, like every Champion, has her own Divine Beast. This is Vah Ruta. Do all the Divine Beast look creepy...? Maybe in the hands of Calamity Ganon. But with Mipha, it’s a force to be reckoned with. In fact, according to Zelda’s Journal, Mipha had an easier time controlling Vah Ruta than the other Champions did with their Divine Beast.<da:embed id="VU1faH3ersw" profile="youtube" width="560" height="315">
-One of the four Divine Beasts created by the Sheika.
-Design is based off an elephant.
-Named after Princess Ruto.
-Made from a special material that’s neigh unbreakable.
-Can create ice blocks and spiked balls that can home in on opponents.
-Capable of maneuvering in and underwater very well.
-Can produce seemingly endless amounts of water.
-Can fire a beam that can take off a small chunk of Calamity Ganon’s health away.
—Has to be stationary to fire said laser.
Mipha’s a Champion for a reason. She’s by far the best Zora fighter in Zora’s Domain. And deserves the Number One Big Sister mug. Divine Beast Vah Ruta is also impressive, too. Under the hands of Calamity Ganon, Vah Ruta was going to flood just about all of Hyrule. Fortunately, Link stopped it for doing so. Unfortunately, it stopped another Wind Waker esc game.Feats:
-The best fighter in Zora’s Domain.
-Worthy enough to become the Zora Champion.
-Can swim up waterfalls with ease.
-Completed the One-Hit Obliterator Trial.
-Had to shoot an arrow at the sun to reveal a Shrine.
-Completed the Kee Dafunia Shrine (AKA, The Melting Point.
—Required Mipha to melt ice to solve puzzles.
-Needed to take down three Guardian Skywatchers.
-Completed the Sato Koda Shrine (AKA, Support and Guidance)
—Needed to guide an orb to its destination.
-In a race against time, needed to swim up three waterfalls.
-Completed the Mah Eliya Shrine (AKA, Secret Stairway)
—Needed to make a makeshift stairway to reach her destination.
-Got the hang of her Divine Beast better than the other Champions.
-Vah Ruta is capable of flooding nearly, if not all of, Hyrule.
-Created the Zora Armor with her own hands.
Despite all of this, Mipha is not immune to flaws. If we want to go with with Pokémon logic, electricity is super effective against Water Types. That’s no different here. And grass, and the Drought ability, and Freeze Dry... Well, no, not those. But definitely electricity. According to Muzu, a single Shock Arrow can instantly kill a Zora. It should be no different here. And speaking of which, even Vah Ruta’s not immune to lighting. It has four generators that, when struck with a single Shock Arrow, Vah Ruta’s only defensive means are neutralized. This is how Link was able to venture inside of it. Weaknesses:
-Lacks in durability.
—A single Shock Arrow could put her down like any other Zora.
-Vah Ruta’s offensive abilities can be neutralized should the generators on its shoulders be struck by lighting.
-Mipha ultimately met her demise at the hands of Waterblight Ganon.
Upsetting, you are so cool you die with one hit. Feels like beating up...I don’t know...a certain Dmash character... Regardless of the flaws and the fact that she’s dead...sadly, she’s the Zora Champion for a reasonMipha: “One day, Princess...I must leave him...to face my fate with Ruta.”

Located south west of central Hyrule is a vast and endless desert. In an area as harsh as this, you wouldn’t expect to find any nearby settlements. But that’s where you’d be wrong as the Gerudo Town can be found at the center of this desert. And the worst stealth mission in Ocarina of Time... Again, this is a completely different game. Ahem, this town is obviously ruled by someone. And that someone is Lady Urbosa, Chief of the Gerudo. Is it just me, or does the people at Nintendo have a thing for dark toned, headstrong women? That’s...a detail I haven’t noticed. And now that you mention it, they do. See, the Gerudos are a race of nothing but woman, and a male Gerudo doesn’t really get born often. So, how do Gerudos reproduce? By going into towns, taken guys (or Voes, as the Gerudo calls them) and making them their husbands. Isn’t Ganondorf also a Gerudo? Yes. More on that detail later. Anyway, Urbosa was great friends with the Queen of Hyrule, and after the Queen died, Urbosa became a mother figure to Zelda. So when the time came to search for Champions to pilot the Divine Beasts, Urbosa wasted no time and practically volunteered for the role as Champion of the Gerudo. Now lets get to her attributes that makes her so badass!Background:
-Name: Urbosa.
-Race: Gerudo.
-Chief of the Gerudo.
-Gerudo Champion of Hyrule.
-Pilot of Divine Beast Vah Naboris.
-Was friends with the Queen of Hyrule.
-Refers to Zelda as “my little bird”.
Of course! Being the Gerudo ruler, Urbosa is the best fighter in the desert. With her weapons and abilities, Urbosa is no slouch when it comes to combat. She is a pure badass! As a swordsman, Urbosa’s sword of choice is the Scimitar of the Seven. It’s said that when Urbosa swings this blade in combat, her movements resemble a dance. We also can’t forget her trusty shield, the Daybreaker. And best of all, with a snap of her fingers, Urbosa can summon lighting, something that no other Gerudo is capable of doing. Weapons/Ability:
Scimitar of the Seven:
-Urbosa’s signature weapon.
-Attack power: 32.
-Durability: 60.
Daybreaker:
-Urbosa’s signature shield.
-Made with pure gold.
-Strength: 48.
-Durability: 60.
Thunder Helm:
-The Gerudo Tribe heirloom.
-Allows Urbosa to survive lighting strikes from above.
-The only tool that can block Vah Naboris’ lighting.
Urbosa’s Fury:
-An ability that’s unique to Urbosa.
-With a snap, can summon lighting to hit a target.
-In the hands of Link, can electrocute any enemy within its range.
It’s pretty amazing how tough she is with the power of lightning. Her accuracy with lighting is also very impressive. She once electrocuted a Yiga Clan member without even looking at them. But what’s more impressive than Urbosa herself is her Divine Beast. This is Vah Naboris. I’m kinda expecting it to fall on its legs.<da:embed id="moJdgTCaq40" profile="youtube" width="560" height="315">
-One of the four Divine Beasts made by the Sheika.
-Desgined after a camel.
-Named after Nabooru.
-Made from a special material that’s neigh unbreakable.
-Using the two antennas located on its back, can strike an opponent with lighting.
—While it does take time to charge, the lighting is extremely precise.
-Can fire an enormous beam
-Can fire a beam that can take off a small chunk of Calamity Ganon’s health away.
—Has to be stationary to fire said laser.
With her skills and Divine Beast, Urbosa is a tough combatant to beat in a fight. She’s fought off two Yiga Clan members with utter ease. She even demonstrated her ability to perfectly parry an attack with her shield. She actually must have extremely quick reflexes and senses to detect on behind her. She’s gotta just have more than just fast reflexes. Her reaction time must be quick as well. The fastest reaction time sight wise has been calculated to be .25 seconds. And again, Urbosa’s not simply just blocking the attack, she’s parrying it, meaning she must have the physical strength to do so. In fact, her ability to perfectly parry is very similar to Link’s. So, if we were to scale her to Link, who can react fast enough to deflect Guardian beams, she could be able to react at least 25% times the speed of light. This is what makes her the Champion! Feats:
-The best Gerudo fighter.
-After the Queen died, became Zelda’s mother figure.
-Worthy enough to be the Gerudo Champion.
—Rather easy considering she’s the Chief Gerudo.
-Effortlessly Defeated two Yiga Clan members.
-Completed the One-Hit Obliterator Challenge.
-Defeated the Molduking.
-Completed the Keive Tala Sheine (AKA, Big or Small)
—Needed to open the door by running electricity through with metallic objects.
-Had to throw an orb down a large hole in the Yiga Hideout.
-Completed the Kihiro Moh Shrine (Inside the Box)
—Needed to find out a specific number of orbs.
-Had to race against time on a sandseal.
-Completed the Takama Shirl Shrine (Dual Purpose)
—Needed to make pathways with metallic blocks and walk across them while they’re electrocuted.
-Vah Naboris can whip up a sandstorm of its own.
Even though Urbosa is strong and skilled, she has her faults. For one, electricity. While she can summon lighting, she’s not immune to it. While her Thunder Helm can protect her from lighting strikes, it doesn’t make her immune to electricity in general. Meaning if someone else can use electric attacks, Urbosa can still be damaged by that. Weaknesses:
-Isn’t immune to electricity, even with the Thunder Helm.
—The Thunder Helm has been stolen before.
-Vah Naboris’s feet can be struck, which will bring the Divine Beast down.
-Urbosa met her demise at the hands of Thunderblight Ganon.
While Urbosa is no longer alive, even as a spirit, she got her revenge on Calamity Ganon. And seeing as Ganon took the form of a Gerudo before... It makes his defeat sooo much more satisfying.Urbosa: “Out of respect for our princess, you may keep your lives. Now go.”

In the North East of Hyrule is an ever-erupting volcano known as Death Mountain. And amongst the rocks are rock-like people known as the Goron. *Whistles Saria’s song* Don’t whistle that song. If it could make one Goron dance, it could make all others dance, and potentially cause an enormous eruption and...oh boy. I don’t even want to think of the travesty Hyrule would go through. I already made two Ocarina of Time references, I’m will make another one. In any case, every Goron leader is strong and tough. But can also be calm sometimes. But I don’t think any other Goron leader comes as close to the one we’re covering today; the Great Daruk. Yup! Background:
-Name: Daruk.
-Race: Goron.
-Leader of the Goron.
-Goron Champion of Hyrule.
-Pilot of Divine Beast Vah Rudania.
-Loves to eat boulder and rocks, like any good Goron.
-Good friends with Link.
Nothing is really known about Daruk and his past. It’s safe to assume he has habits like any other Goron; eating rocks, rolling around, and possessing unmatched strength. And looking huge and badass. Daruk is an utter powerhouse. With a swing of his weapon, he can easily send any enemy flying away. And even his weapon is huge. Daruk’s Boulder Breaker is unique amounts other Goron weapons. See, Gorons are miners, and typically use blunt tools to smash stone, or they use pickaxes. Daruk’s weapon is unique as it not only is used to smash stuff, it’s also counts as a double-edged sword. Now we gotta think about how much force Daruk put into his swing to smashing and throwing people into the air! Daruk also has an ability unique to him alone, which is later used by Daruk’s descendant, Yunobo. This ability is known as Daruk’s Protection.Weapon/Ability:
Boulder Breaker:
-Daruk’s signature weapon.
-Takes a Hylian two hands to wield.
-Attack power: 60.
-Durability: 60.
Daruk’s Protection:
-An ability that’s unique to Daruk.
-Summons a red shield around Daruk.
-Said shield is indestructible.
-In the hands of Link, the shield can only take 3 hits.
Daruk is tough, but can’t do everything on his own. We have to discuss his Divine Beast, Vah Rudania. OH MY GOD IT’S A SALAMANDER! But salamanders are amphibians and Goron are no where near water... Strange, isn’t it? Well, one thing is for sure, Vah Rudania is a forced to be reckoned with.<da:embed id="KxILzD67m2E" profile="youtube" width="560" height="315">
-One of the four Divine Beasts made by the Sheika.
-Desgined after a salamander.
-Named after Darunia.
-Made from a special material that’s neigh unbreakable.
-Can climb nearly any surface.
-Tail acts like a hammer.
-Houses multiple Sentries to alert it to people’s presence.
-Can fire a beam that can take off a small chunk of Calamity Ganon’s health away.
—Has to be stationary to fire said laser.
We’ve claimed that the material the Divine Beasts are made of is neigh indestructible. Now’s the chance to prove it. Vah Rudania once fell into the center of Death Mountain. Judging the volcano’s appearance, we can compare to a composite volcano, also known as a stratovolcano. For a good while, the Divine Beast was standing on nothing but molten lava. The temperatures Vah Rudania would have to handle would be up to 2,192 degrees Fahrenheit. However, because all Divine Beasts are made up of the same material, they can more then likely handle the same temperatures. The Beast is awesome but we can’t forget that Daruk is a force all of his own! According to Bludo, Daruk with just his Boulder Breaker was able to create a small valley on Death Mountain in a single night. Meaning it’s likely he can completely pulverize rock. This means at minimum, Daruk can dish out forces equal to 1,600 lbs of TNT. And that’s lowballing it. Gonguron, a common Goron miner, broke through a wall of rocks with a simple pickaxe in just 6 seconds. So we now learn, don’t mess with a Goron.Feats:
-The best Goron fighter.
-Easily beaten a group of red and blue Bokoblins.
-Can withstand extreme temperatures.
-Created a small valley at Goron Cliff in a single night.
-Worthy enough to be the Goron Champion.
-Completed the One-Hit Obliterator challenge.
-Had to defeat the Igneo Talus Titan.
-Completed the Kamia Omuna Shrine (AKA, Moving Targets)
—Need to fire cannons at moving targets.
-Moved metal blocks so he could stand on lava for a short period.
—Or legitimately stood on lava.
-Completed the Rinu Honika Shrine (AKA, Block the Blaze)
—Needed to get through an obstacle course of fire and lava.
-In a race against time, had to pass through circles in midair.
-Completed the Sharp Lun Shrine (AKA, Blind Spots)
—Needed to hang onto blocks and avoid fire.
-Vah Rudania is capable of causing Death Mountain to erupt with a hit of its tail.
-Vah Rudania in general doesn’t have any real weakspots.
Daruk is starting to look unstoppable at this point. Pure brute strength, an unbreakable shield, and a Divine Beast. He seems like the best...buuut Daruk has a few flaws. For one, he doesn’t have Daruk’s Protection active at every second in battle. Which made him ultimately meet his fate against Fireblight Ganon. And Doggos! Look at him! Yeah...Daruk has a fear of dogs, as he was chased by them as a kid. But even Vah Rudania, as impressive as the Divine Beast is, has its flaws. The Gorons have managed to drive it away using their cannons. And a powerful enough force can deal some damage, like Link launching Yunobo out of a cannon while he has Daruk’s Protection active. Weaknesses:
-Doesn’t always keep Daruk’s Protection active during battle.
-Afraid of dogs.
-Vah Rudania can be forced back with enough force.
-Daruk met his demise at the hands of Fireblight Ganon.
Poor Daruk... Weaknesses aside, Daruk is one tough Goron. And nobody in their right mind should mess with him...unless you have a dog. Then your victory is guaranteed.Daruk: “Hmph! Spineless little cuccos! No monster stands a chance when fighting me, the almighty Daruk!”

In the North West lays a village never really shown in any Zelda game. This is the Rito Village. Home to the Rito, bird-like people who can fly and are good with archery. And best girl Medli! Well, it’s not Ocarina of Time related, but no. The Rito in Wind Waker are different from the ones in Breath of the Wild. For one, Rito like Medli were originally Zora. The Zora race evolved for some reason when Hyrule was flooded. But the Rito tribe here co-exist with the Zora race, and they didn’t have to get their wings from a dragon either. I know that but this proves my theory! What theory? That Breath of the Wild ties in with Star Fox! Exhibit A is the Rito Champion, Revali! I don’t even...there’s nothing in Zelda that ties to Star Fox. The masks in Majora’s Mask? That’s an easter egg. So was James McCloud in F-Zero but there’s also that ending in Command so don’t tell me that LoZ ties up with SF. That literally has nothing to do with Zelda. Shhhhhhhhhh... In any case, we are indeed looking at Revali, the Rito Champion.Background:
-Name: Revali.
-Race: Rito.
-Rito archer.
-Rito Champion of Hyrule.
-Pilot of Divine Beast Vah Medoh.
-Has an very cocky attitude.
-Does not like Link very much.
Uh excuse me Mastersword, that is Falco if I ever seen it! That’s not Falco. Revali is a totally different character entirely. Okay fine, but tell me one thing Revali has over Falco because I’m sure Revali is his ancestor! We’re getting off track. Revali is by far the best Rito archer ever. He’s broken plenty of records with his skills. That is true. Like his target feat we see in a cutscene. In only 3 seconds, Revali took out 17 targets. This is likely due to a similar skill Link is capable of pulling off. When in the air, Link speed up his reaction time to draw his bow and shoot multiple enemies at a time. And this isn’t a game mechanic. I’m Daruk’s diary, Daruk explains that Link is able to speed up his reaction time in order to fight correctly. Because of this, it isn’t far off to assume Revali can also do the same. Or possibly faster. Revali carries his trusty bow, the Great Eagle Bow. This bow has extremely good range, and Can fire up to three shots. Revali is also capable of doing something most Rito cannot; creating his own gale. All I can hear right now are bird puns... Yes. We get it. Revali’s a bird. Weapon/Ability:
Great Eagle Bow:
-Revali’s signature bow.
-A bow without equal.
-Can fire three arrows at a time.
—Normal Arrows.
—Bomb Arrows.
-Attack power: 28x3.
-Durability: 60.
-Range: 40.
Revali’s Gale:
-An ability unique to Revali.
-Allows Revali to create an updraft to fly upwards.
-In the hands of Link, can create a total of three updrafts at a time.
Speaking Of birds, Revali can pilot a rather big one. ...Mastersword... What is it now? PERSONALLY, REVALI PREFERS THE AIR! REVALI IS NOTHING LIKE FALCO!.......Ahem, anyway. Revali’s Divine Beast is a unique one amongst the other for. It’s the only Divine Beast that flies. Hehe, you should’ve saw that coming. <da:embed id="XqKowuTPmH8" profile="youtube" width="560" height="315">
-One of the four Divine Beasts made by the Sheika.
-Desgined after an eagle.
-Named after Medli.
-Made from a special material that’s neigh unbreakable.
-The only Divine Beast that can fly.
-Has an impenetrable shield.
-Has four cannons on each side.
-Can fire a beam that can take off a small chunk of Calamity Ganon’s health away.
—Has to be stationary to fire said laser.
As states before, Revali has broken many records set by other Rito’s prior. He’s not even the leader of his village, but the people look up to him still. Even though he’s kind of a dick. Feats:
-The best Rito fighter.
-After mastering his technique, destroyed 17 targets in 3 seconds.
-Worthy enough to be the Rito Champion.
-Completed the One-Hit Obliterator challenge.
-Needed to shoot Dinraal’s horns.
-Completed the Shira Gomar Shrine (AKA Aim for Stillness)
—Needed to fly through an obstacle course and blow up walls.
-Had to take out a few glowing targets at the Fight Range.
-Completed the Noe Rajee Shrine (AKA, The Four Winds)
—Needed to hit switches in order to proceed upwards.
-In a race against time, needed to snowboard down from Hebra Peak to Pikida Stonegrove.
-Completed the Kiah Toza Shrine (AKA Master the Orb)
—Needed to guide an orb to its destination.
-Vah Medoh has shot down many other Rito and Rito warriors.
Despite his feats, Revali has a couple of flaws. He’s a ranged fighter above all, and doesn’t wield a weapons that’s close ranged. And he isn’t alive anymore... Yeah. Revali is also way too over confident in his abilities, believing he should’ve been the one to dispose of Ganon. He also has the tendency to push himself too far to achieve results. Weaknesses:
-Isn’t too good of a fighter up close.
-Really over confident in his abilities.
-Can often push himself to achieve results that please him.
-If the cannons of Vah Medoh are destroyed, it’s shield goes down.
—Other than the laser, has no other offensive means.
Even with his self centered attitude, when it was all set-and-done, Revali finally gave Link the respect he neglected to give all this time. I guess it’s his turn to be thankful. Ok, enough. Revali and Falco are nothing alike. Revali’s cocky, is a blue bird, and has a flying vehicle. Falco is cocky, is a blue bird, and has a flying vehicle......................crap.Revali: “I know I play the biggest part in helping that, ahem...that little knight with the darkness-sealing sword. Correct? Well, if he loses his confidence after seeing me in action...don’t come crying to me!”
