Which Zelda boss caused the most frustration for you? Sound off in the comments below. Watch more Zelda videos here -> youtube.com/playlist?list=PLCXa2CCtHXq2rf_GV6DPLSC…

Let's be honest thunderblight Ganon was harder than calamity Ganon

Thunderblight boss in BOTW was a nasty one…

In Phase 3 of TOTK’s final boss, the Light Dragon comes to aid Link in the final battle. I asked myself this question: “did she come back and maybe draconification hasn’t removed everything that is Zelda?” I believed it is her love for her knight is what drove her dragon instinct/consciousness in saving Link from falling and aiding him against Draconified Demon King. We all seen that when her powers were activated when the one she loves is threaten in Breath of the Wild. It could only explains how the Light Dragon was able to carry Link and prevent him for falling.

Nintendo really had given us the best version of Ganondorf we have today despite the lack of in depth to his character. And let’s give praise for English actor Matthew Mercer for providing the voice of this iconic villain. 👏 👑

Tears Ganondorf was absolutely a joy to fight (the Gloom attacks straight up DELETING hearts was genius!), but he's not actually that tough. All of his attacks actually have rather predictable patterns and ways to avoid them. The most difficult thing for me was getting the timing down on the second dodge, because you have to identify which way he's going to swing (either horizontal or vertical) and react in about a split second.

Ganondorf in Tears of the Kingdom was tough. Very tough.

Would’ve been a cool and intense boss battle if the developers brought Twinrova back to Tears of the Kingdom.

I’m surprised queen gibdo isn’t on here, extremely tough boss

Thunderblight made me take a break from the game for over a month 😂 ganondorf was really hard but such a good fight

I feel Demise (on Hero Mode) was harder than TOTK Ganondorf. I could only ever beat that guy by rigging the fight with potions. TOTK Ganondorf was an interesting fight by any measure, breaking hearts, flurry rushing me, flurrying my flurry rush, that long health bar, etc. But the fight doesn't make you work for your victory. Most likely you'd have killed him before you even get to see all his moves.

So Phase 2 of ToTK's final boss is actually a lot easier then people realize, for two reasons. !) The Master Sword never breaks in that fight. 2) You can deflect the gloom darts as I'll call them, but hitting them back with the master sword

Fun fact about Maz Koshia, if you throw mighty bananas on the ground he will go for them and pick them up. Not only do the yiga do this, but it gives you a chance to attack him

When TOTK Ganondorf did permanent damage, I knew this was a serious battle I somehow survived with 1 heart and a bunch of hearty fruit I was lucky to even live and I didn’t know there was food that eliminates the gloom effect but it was the best battle

⬇if you ran out of arrows while fighting Queen Gibdo

Fun fact about the dark energy balls that TotK ganon fires in phase 3 (I think) if you hit them with a melee weapon they get fired back at him like homing missiles. They don’t do a ton of damage but it’s more on him and less on you.

Hot take: I actually enjoyed The Imprisoned fights. I didn't chop off its toes but jumped on to its head from above. That's the much more fun way to fight him. And as for fighting him three times, how many other bosses in video games do you fight three times? I don't hear nearly as many complaints about other bosses that you have to fight three times.

Ganondorf in totk removes your hearts PERMANENTLY in battle, gratned the game ends after victory but its still very painfull. Each heart was 4 shrines

❤ Nice video! My top 5 is: 5. Thunderblight Ganon 4. Monk Maz Koshia 3. Onox 2. Ganondorf (TOTK) 1. Thunderbird Note: I got killed a lot of times trying to defeat Onox (in his dragon form) in Oracle of Seasons even having all heart containers and a potion. I also got killed a lot of times by Thunderblight Ganon the first time I played BOTW because it was my first boss (I wanted to visit Gerudos first).
