  • i hit him with dins fire...1 sword slash....and a epic megaton hammer kill in the head

  • Am I the only one who thought Dark Link was super easy to beat? .-.

  • Why you look like you're just having fun here... Used hookshot LOL! You are such an idiot, human beings are intelligent beings and playing is a symbol of that... Lol jk you aren't an idiot you were just having fun. Have some self esteem I like this vid!

  • can we a Dark Link Zelda please?

  • I remember when I fought him for first time, i was like 8 years, old good ol' times

  • Huh, now that is hella creepy. You walk across the water to the tree, you can see Link's reflection in the water. When you walk across the island to the door...his reflection is gone.

  • Nintendo FTW

  • Persona 4?

  • I hate how Dark Link became absurdly easy in the 3DS version.

  • Man u suck lol try waiting till he hits u? Not stand around button bashing jeez

  • IMO the most epic mini-boss ever, or at least in Zelda history. Just can't wait to fight him in the 3D remake !

  • he copies your movements.

    so i used my broken giant's knife. because he only has the master sword.

  • @supersnorlax1 Little babby want to challenge Big_Bruno!

    Why not that she can spawn babbies XD

  • OMG! i didnt remember that fucking huge master sword.... that shit its serious.

  • The megaton hammer not locked on is the best way.,,,,,,,,

  • @funnguy055 lol looks like we got a bad ass who can't fucking spell. Drop the controller and pick up a book.

  • theye should have a spinoff where it follows dark link

  • This is a very good boss. Though in Zelda 2 he is much harder without using the corner trick.

  • when you keep Z-targeting fight this guy with master sword this boss is probably one of the hardest bosses in zelda (oot version not the 3DS version)

  • it also works if u get the biggoron sword don't z target him and keep slashing

    (1 he'll die faster

    2) he will hardly make a deffense move

  • Irl, dark Link would kick my ass... But since I'm holding a controller, he's my bitch. -:3

  • where are this boss?

  • i was rooting for dark link

  • I just realized that I fought Demise there.

  • He cant mimic that

  • Try using your megaton hammer or if you get it the goron sword, or whatever its called

  • This game is still so good.

  • There now, perfectly symmetric violence never solves anything.

  • I had 3 hearts left after beating myself and now i know that i'm really good !)

  • You need to work on you sword skills. The 3DS version is my first Zelda game, and I finished him off without a problem USING the sword without any hints. Bt good video.

  • I appreciate you style to kill Dark Link even though it takes little bit longer. I mostly used Din's fire and Master Sword, because Megaton hammer seemed too difficult and slow to use.

  • My brother showed me that if you have the Biggoron Sword, you can easily beat him because Dark Link only copies the Master Sword techniques. Good job anyway, I couldn't have beaten him with the Master Sword. I always died...

  • Much easier way to beat him than this, WITHOUT using the hammer or such. Swing horizontal, but chop left to right. (If that makes sense) Seeing as how he is mirrored, he will swing the other way, leaving that side of his body defenseless. Common sense really.

  • I am light I am dark I am good I am evil I wield a sword of evil's bane I wield a sword of evil's might I am real I am a mere shadow We will fight Within the Temple of the Zoras It is our destiny Two shall fight One shall survive Our fight has ended I have won I have lost The light lives on The darkness dies It is the terrible dance of destiny We will always be enemies Good bye my darker half Good bye my lighter half I am good I am evil
  • So is this suicide or murder?

  • I just had to through this out there- I was with my bro and his friend, and his friend randomly called the main boss for the water temple Biggie Smalls XD we were laughing our asses off, then we all found out Biggie Smalls is a rapper O_O btw I just use megaton hammer or spam the shit out of din's fire >_> lulz

  • i love the concept of the reflection in the water temple being dark link, but wouldn't the shadow temple have made more sense?

  • I like the way you did this. I usually use the Biggoron Sword, but there was this one time that I totally forgot to get it, and I had no clue how to fight Dark Link xD Thanks to your video, I actually beat him(well, with less than 3 hearts left and no potions/fairies, but still :D) In my opinion, this method is wayy better than the Megaton Hammer (;

  • probably been mentioned before but i only recently realised how odd it is to have him in the water temple and not spirit or shadow.

  • Swinging wildly in the hopes you land a hit before Dark Link kills you... yeah, that's pretty much me.

  • its way faster if you use the megaton hammer

  • @grayfox5739 That may be true, but I'm not a person who uses such shortcuts

  • @mtiller2006 I was scared shitless when I did this as a kid. Fast forward 7 years later....foggy, surrounded by water with a wide room with a single dead tree and a tiny room... and a black shadow with glowing red eyes standing right behind you. I am STILL scared shitless.

  • @mtiller2006 How is using the items in your inventory a shortcut? Arn't you supposed to use them? That's why their there.

  • @mtiller2006 Keeping it epic I see :D

  • @grayfox5739 thanks for the hint

  • @grayfox5739 I am currently playing the Master Quest version on my 3DS and, this is not a complaint or anything but a suggestion, decided to try to finish the adult dungeons as backwards as I could. So, I saved the carpenters, did the water temple after getting the (seemingly unnecessary) bow, and am wondering where to go in the fire temple. This also meant beating Dark Link without Megaton Hammer. This is actually an interesting idea that not only you, but also others may enjoy.

  • @grayfox5739 no its not

    

  • The temple was hard as fuck, but the battle was simply epic.

  • Want to know something creepy about this boss? Watch Link's reflection in the water. Kind of adds something to Dark Link originally being named Shadow Link.

  • i have played through this game multiple times, and i noticed Dark Link fights like you do against Stalfos.

    when i first played i just slashed at them, and so Dark Link was easy to defeat, the second time i went played through, i actually used my sheild ( because i someone didn't realise it's use before) and so Dark Link was alot harder to kill because he blocked all me sword attacks with his shield.

    Am i just being pedantic or has anyone else noticed this?

  • I applaud you for doing it the challenging way, maybe if I get through the game I'll do it the hard way the second time around. I used the Megaton hammer and killed him in 3 hits, no joke. I was too scared to try it another way

  • I came on here looking for walk through for this level. I am so lost, never got past being young link. Honestly never got to play it on 64.

  • if you don't target him, he can't protect himself!

  • the annoying thing about dark link is that he copy's you moves exactly and if you use items he dodges every time perfectly

  • The person who is playing is very bad at it.

    all he does is keep swinging and hopes for a hit.

  • @guitar1050 If you're telling me to use Din's Fire, Megaton Hammer, or any shortcut to beat this guy, I simply refused. This is the natural, man's way of beating him than using wimsy little shortcuts!

  • @mtiller2006 No I was refering to your swordfighting techniques they need some work.

  • @guitar1050 Oh, that's what you're referring to, gotcha. Well, it was a while since I played this at the time, so...maybe that explains it?

  • @mtiller2006 Biggorons Sword is Highly Recommended in this fight mainly for it's EPIC range, just saying.

  • @mtiller2006 There is no "man's way" of beating a game. You do whatever it takes, I used din's fire and when I ran out I used the hammer simple as that. But It's still kinda hard with the hammer.

  • @mtiller2006 i beat dark link inm under a minute no short cuts first try its simple u just suck

  • @mtiller2006 Using the items that the game provides you isn't using "shortcuts"

    And besides, you tried to stun him with your hookshot, so if you say you "refuse" to use "shortcuts" then you wouldn't have tried using the hookshot.. Just saying.

  • @mtiller2006 I love the boss music and dark links epic moves

  • @mtiller2006 Does it really matter how you defeat him, as long as you defeat him? Slashing aimlessly is not only unstrategic, but also gets boring after a while.

  • @mtiller2006 yeah plus EPIC SWORD CLASS BATTLE! MASTER SWORD TO DARK MASTER SWORD!

  • @guitar1050 Little Babby!

  • No spin attack??

  • dark link easily has the coolest death shriek Ive ever heard lol idk if that makes me sadistic...

  • has any one noticed the reflection of dark link in the water when you walk to the island in the middle of the room, but once you pass the tree hes gone.

  • Thumps Up if you think Dark Link for the 3ds sucks and this one is much better :D

  • Tips for beating him:

    First, have a Fairy on a bottle to revive in case he kills you.

    Second, have a broken sword (the one you buy at goron city that cost 200. After using it a while it should break).

    Swing at dark link without mercy, eventually he'll receive a hit.

    IMPORTANT: Dark Link is very vulnerable when he spawn after you hit it, when it does, turn yourself fast (because he spawns behind you) and hit him right away.

  • You know what? This actually looks much more epic without Din's Fire!

  • @tsukinoakuma I agree! And, more natural and challenging if you ask me

  • @tsukinoakuma Yeah, fuck magic. This is how real men fight!

  • I used the megaton hammer when fighting him and found it to be the easiest when I didn't have enough magic for Din's Fire.

  • It's hammer time

  • I beat him by repeatedly stabbing him with the broken goron's knife.

  • he cant dodge dins fire thats all i remember

  • i remember this game man he wasnt that hard i beat him easy with the strategy guide :D

  • I remember this fight lasting about twenty minutes when I first played this game, and finally beating him when I had one heart left. It was the most epic boss fight I've ever had.

  • the first time i playd it i beat em (i was lucky).but the 2nd time i playd he killed me 3 times. OMG i just got some wonderfull memorys =]

  • i remeber getting owned Dark Link Plus i never use inventory unless its required otherwise its just the master sword and alotta backflips i remember getting killed by him twice.

  • it doesent matter if you win or dark link both of you are gonna win cause there the same lol

  • Oh yeah, I also didn't use the hammer.

  • Why is everyone saying dark link is so hard!? I beat him easily first try, without din's fire.

  • The first time i saw that Matrix move (He jumps, climbs up the sword and then backflips) i was "O_O, shit just got for real now"

  • Dark Link should've been the boss of the dark temple not a semi boss of the water temple. He was way harder than that pathetic dark temple boss. Plus they should've made him have a second form if he were the dark temple boss.

  • Bullshit DArk Link ain't shit against me...

    I go shieldless and combine attacks he's down under 1 minute... ohh yeah only master sword i don't need more items hahaha...

  • i beat dark link in a few hits with dins fire and my sword

  • Sounds creepy when you defeat him the echo Ahhhhh!

  • When he first jumped on my sword I nearly lost my mind. I was like "Omg this is gonna fucking suck."

  • best zelda boss ever. wonder what the meaning of him , and him being in the water temple is.

  • @yurtyybomb I always ponder this also. You'd think because he is a shadow of link that it would be best if he was in the shadow temple, but nope. My guess is that water also reflects images and that is what Dark Link is, a reflection of Link himself. Then again, I am thinking too much into this :)

  • *Dark Link stands on Sword*

    Me: ZOMG HAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAX

  • Strategy is for pussies!

    CHARGEEEEEEE!!!!

  • When I first reached dark link I was like'' where is lock!!'' .and when dark link came out he scared the crap out of me!

  • @greenthunderstudios The Biggoron's Sword can't break. I think you've mistaken it with the Giant's Knife.

  • Darklink mini boss sorry

  • They should make a dark link with skyward sword.

  • i remember when i first did this.

    at first i saw my reflection then i crossed the island and i was like AHHHHHHHHH WHERES MY REFLECTIONS D: then i saw something behind the tree O.O -poke- AHHHH ITS FAT ASS!!! wait .. oh nvm :P

  • @Spleepy1 LOL

    

  • dark link is like peter pan!

  •  I love how Dark Link keeps jumping on the sword. xD

  • Seriously, I think this is the hardest enemy in the game. Dead serious.

    Even the bosses aren't as hard. :C

  • If you notice every time you hit him he falls through the floor with the same pose as when he dies in Zelda II.

  • @135twilight That's the same thing I noticed, lol.

  • I always hated fighting this bitch...

  • I always thought it was pretty slick how he'd end up jumping on your sword all Pai Mei style.

    That was slick.

  • @xray97ful it don't work cause you have no sheild then.

  • Dark Link should be in the next smash bros.

  • Dark Link sounds cooler than Shadow Link. STOP CALLING HIM SHADOW LINK.

    Now time for some more irrelevantly random stuff.

    Majora's Mask 3D, go & sign the online petition. Just need name & email.

    pweeeeeez? ;(

  • When I played that game I didn't knew there was a "dark link". It sounded more like my reflected self in the water.

  • XD i beat him with one jump attack from the giants knife.....yes the giants knife, not the biggoron sword...... one of the easiest mini bosses ever!

  • the only enemy in the entire game worth using a potion or fairy

  • anyone hoping of joining our little group of zelda fans is welcome to join us

    and YES, I'm aware im advertising on someones channel (Please excuse me for that >_<) but we really want this thing to work out well. Pm me for details. and no, this is NOT a scam of anysort.

  • Wow, if I was link, and I looked back at that tree and saw a dark figure running towards me, I'd fucking be out of there faster than Chuck Norris.

  • easy hit him with the biggorns sword like 4 times he cant block it lol

  • I just finally beat him yesterday wow he was hard

  • @Mrbillabong567 cool i beat him over 10 years ago

  • I wish that they would bring back Dark Link as another final boss for a modern Zelda Game. I mean think of the story, maybe after Twilight Princess or something. Like say Dark Link resided in the Twilight Realm and escaped when Ganondorf was causing havoc. Then maybe have Dark Link be the new holder of the Triforce of Power. Maybe this could be the Dark Link to the Hero of Time? Maybe Hero's Shade returns to help in the fight. Just a thought

  • i found him easy 3 hearts lost

  • he look more like metal link to me

  • i killed him like 25 time in a row and it wont beat the level :'(

  • I don't remember how I defeated him, but I remember I only used shield and sword.

  • its called biggorons sword not biggerons sword lol O:! @mtiller2006 XD youve uploaded 8 days after my march third birthday and 16 years (1991) is it an exception to my comment getting deleted by calling you names if i call you a good name like cool i mean ur cool for uploading it extremely unlikely close enough to my birthday lol XD

  • Thumbs Up if When You First Battled Him You Put On The Kokiri Tunic

  • I beat him by randomly slashing him with the biggorons sword.

  • I beat him by randomly slashing him with the biggoroms sword.

  • This is the best mini boss EVER!!!

    When I first fought him it was epic! I used the big goron sword, and it shattered, but i still killed him with the handle!

  • The key to beating him is to not z target him

  • @urmombentover Yeah, what this guy said. If you Z-target, then mimicing you only makes it easier for him.

    I love this spot, though. Like how it's a mirage room and how the water is a light blue along with the room. Then it all fades away.

  • I never found this guy hard, honestly. Just master sworded him to death.

  • Forgot how the room changes after you defeat him.

  • lol you know the game is from Japan when Dark Link stands on your sword.

  • To defeat him you must not lock,come as close as you can to him and start swinging your sword,until you hit him.If until the water temple you have less than 10 hearts then you need to find a fairy (or you won't need it if your an expert =P).Don't use Big Gorrons Sword as it won't help at all,yes it is stronger indeed than the M.S but M.S will do more damage as link holds the M.S and shield each with one hand.Don't use Din's fire unless it is emergency.Then it's all up to you if u can defeat him

  • Absolutely my favorite fight in the game

  • DANG! HE WAS ON YOUR SWORD THEN FLIP BACKWORDS!!!

  • sorry to say but you can play

  • this is always my fav part of this game

  • First time I fought him, I tried head-on fighting with the Biggoron Sword and took a lot of damage, then spammed Din's Fire until I was out of magic, then exhausted my arsenal of arrows and bombs, then tried the hammer and he dodged and countered every time, and finally i just went in with the Master sword and barely won. Dark Link was by far the hardest LoZ boss I've ever faced.

    You guys lie! Megaton Hammer and Biggoron Sword don't help at all!

    Unless I messed up somehow...

  • @crazy7m Well, it's all in the timing. I do agree that Dark Link is very hard, maybe even harder than the actual boss of the temple (Morpha), but what I do is equip the Megaton Hammer, and rapidly press that C-button while staying as close to him as possible. If I'm lucky, I get a hit on him, then once that finally happens, every time he pops up behind me, I can quickly turn around and hit him without him trying to defend himself (I don't know if that's a glitch or not).

  • @crazy7m

    You serious?

    He was patethically easy, EVEN with the Megaton Hammer.

    And I'm dead serious. Make sure you don't spam the Megaton too much.

    But that was just me going through the game on 3DS. He might be different there.

  • @crazy7m i won with broken biggoron sword XD i just spemmed it and he died

  • @crazy7m Really? Because the Biggoron sword made absolute mince meat of him when I used it. He couldn't even block it and I didn't take damage once. The secret with the Biggoron sword strategy is you can't z-target him. When you use strategy he uses strategy, he is a clone after all. Just keep spamming the b button to do horizontal slashes. You would think that he would easily escape the attacks but as I said before, he's a clone. If you z-target him he moves like he is z-targeting you, get it?

  • @crazy7m Don't Z-Target the guy just go infront of him and spam the master sword at him

  • @crazy7m really? i used megaton hamer and won...barely, but i won.

  • @crazy7m Actually, the Megaton Hammer CAN work. He can block it with his shield, or dodge it with a back-flip, but it's a LOT harder for him to block than with the Master Sword. This is because, if you swing the sword, he swings too, so odds are, you'll just clash swords. But if you swing the hammer, he can only hope to block or dodge it, which doesn't guarantee as much success.

    Though it helps to note not to Z-target him while using the hammer, for even better success-rate.

  • @crazy7m You messed up. I used the Megaton Hammer and didn't take a single hit. You are supposed to clash swords with him (DO NOT target him) and then immediately hit him with the Megaton Hammer. Every time he comes back at you just hit him with the hammer again (don't parry him again unless you screw up). Even if he is behind you. It should work.

  • @crazy7m the megaton hammer works if u dont z-target him. another strategy i've heard of is u go into a corner and charge up a spin attack. release the spin attack when he gets close

  • @crazy7m The best way to do it without any magic power or Din's Fire, (or a hookshot), is to encounter each others' attack and then hit him with the Megaton Hammer. The next time he appears, all you have to do is to keep hitting him with the Hammer he won't defend himself this time. keep doing it until he dies. I did it without losing any damage.

    And I don't normally do this but... thumbs up so people can see.

  • @crazy7m throughout the entire zelda series, regardless of installment, time, or system, dark link has ALWAYS been a bitch to kill. lol, just watch people flail around trying to kill him in Zelda 2 for the NES if you want a good laugh.

  • @crazy7m u did mess up. Megaton Hammer really helps because u get close enough lock on and use hammer. I defeated him by losing like half a heart.

  • i think i used the megaton hammer on his toes

  • i never noticed this but before u cross the island u have ur shadow or reflection under you but wen u cross the island its gone

  • i beat him in like 30 seconds by just side slashing with the big gorons sword

  • Is it possible to battle him again its my favorite battle

  • This is an annoying mini-boss, no strategy to it pretty much.

  • Did Adventure time remake this exact scene into a cartoon when they are trying to get the crystal gem apple?

  • Epic boss fight. To this day, I still don't understand how to beat him though.

  • I would probably completely hate the water temple if it wasn't for dark link. I remember back when i was like 6 completely hating and loving to fight him. I never was able to actually beat him and after like 5 failed tries, I had my cousin do it for me. Now its been about 12 years since I last played OoT and i'm ready for a rematch. I'm coming for you Dark Link and i'm giving it all i've got.

  • @Girtaco100

    oh yeah, when u get around to it, don't use the master sword like this person did. it's a waste of time to try to chip at his body, which only happens like every 10 slashes. for ur first time defeating him, u should use the megaton hammer or biggoron sword. he can't imitate that. and if u run toward him at the right moment, u could get a whack at him.

  • you can use the biggoronsword if you have it, so he can't attack back

  • i hate it when he stands on your sword! i was like wha- *dark link jumps off* *kills me* DAMMIT!

  • What's your intro song please?

  • DUDE THIS SHIT IS REALLY KIND SCARY CUZ LINKS WATER REFLECTION WAS SO OBVIOUS BUT WHEN IT WAS GONE IT SCARED THE SHIT OUT OF ME

  • the ones who talk shit to this guy on this video clearly try to look cool saying lolnoob loser- can you stfu and enjoy an old classic game? fuck, everything's a challenging competition with yall and always wanna start shit. The tips, yeah id understand saying that but trying to act cool and put someone below you? on a one player game for gods sake >_>

  • Seriously if you used anything other then good 'ol fashion sword and shield you're dumb as fun.

    This boss is easily the best boss in the whole game.

  • I like how this video gets so many bad comments just because he doesn't use the fast way through the battle, I for one prefer the longer way just makes it all the more fun.

  • I beat em with master sword and 1 Lon Lon ranch milk :D
