Zeldapedia:Temple of Courage



Welcome to the Temple of Courage, where various characters from the Legend of Zelda series battle out on a semi-weekly basis! You, the people, are the deciding factors in these matches. Functionally, all of these battles are popularity contests and not "battles" as such. For instance, in a boss vs. boss fight, we suggest that you vote for the one you like the most rather than whether or not one enemy would beat another in a legit fight. This is only a suggestion, though.

If you have an account and have at least 50 mainspace edits, you can suggest a fight or vote or comment on others on the suggestions sub-article.

Rules

 * You may vote for your favorite or who you think would win in a competition between the two combatants that week.
 * You may vote only once.
 * If you are a user, please include your vote in the user section. If you are not a user, please include your vote in the anonymous section. However, any votes in the anonymous sections will count as only a half vote.
 * When a new fight is created (the process should take no longer than a week, give or take a couple of days), the votes from the last fight will be totaled and the winner decided.
 * Please sign your vote (unless you want to be counted as an anonymous vote) with a link to your username after your voting text.
 * Don't try to rig the votes by entering multiple votes; these pages are regularly patrolled and you WILL face consequences if you are caught.
 * Don't use talk templates.

Week 160: Carnival of Time vs. Picori Festival
{| style ="width: 100%;" And now for something completely different. It's... the TEMPLE. OF. COURRRRRRRRRRRRAAAAAAAAAAAAGE!!! Every once in a blue really, really scary, red-eyed moon, the Temple of Courage takes a break from pitting characters and enemies against each other. The odds of this occurring are very slight, but your eyes do not deceive you. This week, we have a battle against two festive events, important to their respective countries in different ways. They have both printed eye-grabbing brochures, which will be read to you in the center ring at this very moment.

In the orange corner is an event celebrated every year in Termina, a parallel dimension to Hyrule. Come the time of the event, Clock Town is overrun by tourists, as a great structure is built to let people access the Clock Tower. Festival-goers carve their own colorful masks and pray to the protective gods of Termina, in order to ensure a fruitful harvest for the year to come. Artists from all over Termina come to Clock Town for the celebration as well, and any wedding that may occur is considered another sign of good fortune. However, when the hero arrives, the festival (and indeed the entire world of Termina) is threatened by an impending calamity. THIS. IS. THE CAAAAAAAAARRRRRNIVAAAAAAAL OF TIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIME!!!

In the green corner is a festival celebrated every year in the land of Hyrule. The festival is held to honor the Picori, a mysterious race that aided the people of Hyrule in the past. In Hyrule Town, prize contests are held, sweets are sold (and consumed) by the barrelful, keepers of lore tell the younger generations of the legends of the Picori. And at Hyrule Castle, a sword-fighting tournament is held, the winner of which will be allowed to touch a sacred keepsake of the Hero of Men. However, one year, a sorcered named Vaati participates in, and wins, the tournament, seeking to obtain the vaunted Light Force he presumes to be hidden within the chest that holds the Hero of Men's broken blade. After Vaati turns the Princess of Destiny to stone, the hero must undertake a quest to defeat the evil sorcerer. THIS. IS. THE PIIIIIIIIICOOOOOOOOOORRRRRRRRRRI FEEEEEEEESTIVAAAAAAAAAAAAAL!!!

Which of these joyful celebrations will receive the public's favor? That is up to our astute voters. And now... LLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLET'S GET RRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRREAAAAAAAAAAAAAADY TO RUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUMMMMMMMMMMMBLE!!!

Votes for Carnival of Time

 * 1) There really isn't much grounds for comparison here. The Carnival of Time is so delicately interwoven with the plot of Majora's Mask and has so many layers to it, it's like the danish to Picori Festival's donut. It's the one I would go to, given the chance. Awesome musical acts, more interesting stories to hear, and all the so-not-alcoholic milk beverages you can stand. There's also the fact that the Minish don't seem to care that they're being celebrated, unlike the Four Giants whom I presume you would not want to anger since they can crush your insolent bones into mush in seconds flat, with the emphasis on "flat." In the very, very niche Top Ten list of Great Gaming Festivals, Carnival of Time is top of the class. --Auron  Kaizer !  01:12, March 25, 2012 (UTC)
 * 2) The Carnival of Time is actually important to the Majora's Mask plot...Unlike the Picori Festival, which is just sort of used as a catalyst. So I guess the Picori Festival is important in a different way, but the Carnival of Time still wins because it plays such a large and integral part in the game (after all, it does take place throughout the whole thing, while the Picori Festival only has a few minutes of screen time). -Minish   Link   01:45, March 25, 2012 (UTC)
 * 3) While both options are considerable, I just feel the Carnival of Time has a more important role to the story of Majora's Mask than the Picori Festival has with Minish Cap. Plus, time is money, and I like money. Kapodaco! (talk) 04:43, March 25, 2012 (UTC)
 * 4) Basically what's already been said. Xykeb  Yvolix   Zraliv  06:49, March 25, 2012 (UTC)
 * 5) After I finished Majora's Mask, I felt really happy, because I felt like I'd saved the Carnival. Minish Cap... I didn't like it that much. Paradox64 08:45, March 25, 2012 (UTC)
 * 6) Even with most of the acts canceled the lead up to the Carnival of Time still encompasses over 60% of the side quests in the game. Now that's something worth celebrating. Oni Dark  Link 09:47, March 25, 2012 (UTC)
 * 7) The Carnival of Time is something the whole of termina comes together to celebrate, unless of course an apocalypse is on it's way. But Even Then People still stay for it!--MarcusFenix2000 (talk) 11:55, March 25, 2012 (UTC)
 * 8) Per Minish -- Abraham  link  oln  16:52, March 25, 2012 (UTC)
 * 9) Obviously this. When I played MM, I actually wanted to be in Clock Town. Even with the Moon falling, the atmosphere seemed awesome. --EveryDayJoe45 (talk) 20:29, March 25, 2012 (UTC)
 * 10) Without question. The Carnival of Time is simply the more entertaining event, and its role in the story is much more significant. (I actually have played TMC up to the end of the first dungeon. The fact that the Picori Festival no longer has any significance is a bit disappointing.)

Votes for Picori Festival

 * 1) Being a festival, at least the Picori Festival is happy, unlike the "Carnival" of Time, where the few people that actually show up are just waiting for their moon to crash into their land and destroy everything. &mdash;Ceiling  Master  02:02, March 25, 2012 (UTC)


 * 1) at least you actually get to go to this one and experience it, with the carnival of time you just leave before actually seeing and interacting with it. sure theres the end cut scene but that isn't the same -Devdude (talk) 21:53, March 25, 2012 (UTC)

Votes for Eagus

 * 1) Eagus is a cool guy. Now granted, few contestants, be they living creatures or frozen cubes of ice, can stand against Orca, but, dude, c'mon. Err, actually, I have no really good reason to vote for Eagus over Orca, but his particular style of beard is completely righteous, and today being Beard Day (something I just invented) Eagus gets the edge over him. And he seems like a good guy, with a more admirable control over his temper than Orca with his impression of a dying meso-american tigerbear in heat. Eagus is more likely to be just a regular bro with which you can have some beer pumpkin soup at the local pub. --Auron  Kaizer !  15:57, March 3, 2012 (UTC)
 * 2) The O in Orca is for overrated. --Birdman5589 (talk) 00:01, March 4, 2012 (UTC)
 * 3) Eagus is from Skyward Sword Skyward Sword is awesome Eagus could possibly even be awesomer than the game that he's in. Mthompson (talk)
 * 4) Skyward Sword is the first chronological event in the timeline so if that is true who do you think taught the original hero of men EAGUS DID!!! Dinoman21
 * 5) Heyyyyyyy. Skyward Sword is my second favorite Zelda, and Wind Waker is third. Also, Eagus's beard is awesome. Paradox64
 * 6) Eagus annoyed me while helping me, but I still thought he was too awesome to be ignored. Also, he could hit Orca ONCE and he'd fall over gasping.Zeldas ganon (talk) 06:18, March 9, 2012 (UTC)
 * 7) Anybody but Orca. Also, SS is much better than WW. And to everyone "sick" of SS fights, do you not realize how many times Orca has appeared, or tried to appear, in ToC?  Ike  20:42, March 9, 2012 (UTC)

 * 1) Eagus for the win, gives you side quest, sword, AND teaches you how to use it. WIN.
 * 2) I didn't really like Wind Waker, plus Eagus just seems cooler. He gives you your first sword and teaches you how to use it + defense techniques once you got a shield, and his role doesn't stop here. He's also "useful" for a sidequest with an amazing reward: two Pieces of Heart and a gigantic wallet!
 * 3) I didnt Like Orca, I dont know why, Eagus is much cooler, he also seems more laid back, I dont like Old man Nipples, also Skyward Sword is Much Better than Wind Waker
 * 4) This guy is awesome. The other guy is scary is has a potbelly.
 * 5) he is cool and the other guy is creepy
 * 6) Eagus was cool and helped me out more than Orca. Plus I love Skyward Sword so Eagus gets my vote.
 * 7) I don't like Orca.
 * 8) Orca's just an onld freak.

 * 6) Orca gets my vote because of two reasons: One, he's sexier, and two, at least he DOES something when it comes to training Link, Eagus just sits there and talks, Orca will stab you in the face. Kapodaco! (talk) 22:18, March 5, 2012 (UTC)

 * 1) Loved to fight him, and he is so cool for an old man. NUOOOH!!
 * 2) You just can't beat that old man strength!
 * 3) Orca has far more experiance. Having practiced fighting since he was young, he has battled many beasts during his travels on the ocean. The greatest threat Eagus has faced in teaching new students at the knight academy.
 * 4) I don't know why — I'm just drawn to voting for him. Maybe it's because he's on the right? Anyway, my instinct is telling me to vote, so...
 * 5) Orca  is so badass, if you get 1 thing wrong, he's like "YOU SUCK AT SWORDPLAY! GO DIE IN A HOLE"!!!! which is why he's awesome, coz he's scary!
 * 6) I dislike Skyward Sword.
 * 7) Have you seen the huge harpoon on his wall?
 * 8) Too many SS fights. Potbellied people FTW!
 * 9) Who the hell is the other guy, again?
 * 10) Orca is an awesome name. Plus, Orca allows you to fight him and you can get a piece of heart from him, plus it's fun trying to get hits on him. You can't do that with Eagus, and all he does is demand some pumpkin soup.

Anon 1 for Eagus, Orca does all those things too and Ike there has been way more Skyword Sword fights then Orca fights. User:Coolkat100 16:05, March 9, 2012(UTC)
 * "Way more"? Definitely not. This is the fourth Orca battle and the sixth Skyward Sword battle, and Orca has been suggested many, many times in the past. Jedimasterlink (talk) 19:04, March 10, 2012 (UTC)

What I mean't was there will be way more because out of 159 fights there has been four Orca fights and out of the past seven fights there has been six Skyword Sword fights. User:Coolkat100 18:40, March 10, 2012 (UTC)
 * Point taken. Just try to say what you mean more precisely. Jedimasterlink (talk) 03:11, March 11, 2012 (UTC)

You are right though on the fact that Orca has been in a lot of fights. I think Orca holds the record. User:Coolkat100 12:08, March 11, 2012 (UTC)
 * Nope. Zant has been in 5 times. --EveryDayJoe45 (talk) 19:22, March 11, 2012 (UTC)
 * I would have to say that Orca has been suggested MANY more times than anyone else. Since the game just came out, it makes sense to have alot of SS fights, whereas Orca was just an old guy who liked to stab little children with harpoons. Ike  15:41, March 24, 2012 (UTC)

I'm surprised that Eagus is doing so well. It's actually a pleasant surprise. I like close fights. -Anonymous (talk)

I believe there is one MAJOR difference in these Aragorn-Esque sword teachers: the fact that Eagus wields an actual Sword while Orca wields a Harpoon. And since i'm on the subject, Nintendo has no respect for weapons or items.Zeldas ganon (talk) 22:05, March 11, 2012 (UTC)
 * You continue to support my theory that you're a medieval squire aspiring to be a glorious knight, somehow stuck in the 21st century and horrified at the lack of chivalry. It's funny because at first it was just a joke I made to myself, but your continuous references to swords, respect, and dueling have made it uncannily plausible. <font color="#14148A">Xykeb  <font color="#4B0082">Yvolix   Zraliv  22:13, March 11, 2012 (UTC)

Hahahahahahaha,Hm, Ha, Hey That was funny, lad. I like your style, but this has nothing to do with the ToC. Besides, I believe it was YOU who posted on your page that Nintendo has no respect for arthropods (which they don't).
 * How very amusing. I cannot contain my laughter.
 * My statement implies an abnormal interest in arthropods, which I have. On the other hand most people have only an elementary knowledge of weapons which the Zelda series should satisfy. That you apparently know more about medieval weaponry is, well, unusual. Hence the support for my theory. <font color="#14148A">Xykeb  <font color="#4B0082">Yvolix   Zraliv  00:19, March 12, 2012 (UTC)

Aye, lad. Good theory. But my interest in medieval weapons stretches to medieval culture as well. For instance, french bread was very widespread during it's heyday, especially in ENGLAND, NOT FRANCE! Yet France gets all of the credit. And the Morning Star is not a Mace. yet they say they're the same. Zeldas ganon (talk) 17:12, March 12, 2012 (UTC)
 * The fact that you keep calling me "lad" as though you're clearly the older and more mature person here only continues to support this theory, whatever you may say about it. <font color="#14148A">Xykeb  <font color="#4B0082">Yvolix   Zraliv  19:20, March 12, 2012 (UTC)
 * I don't even care that this was supposed to be a joke. It's a really well-supported theory, at least more so than...certain others I've seen around here. Jedimasterlink (talk) 19:51, March 12, 2012 (UTC)

I like writing in Old English! So what, art thou suggesting that I write differently? 'Cause I can. I CHOOSE not to. And while from what i can gather you're older than me, I believe I'm just as mature. Anyways, I don't discriminate age. what's the difference in a 10 year old and a 30 year old? Nothing but likeness, think patterns, and style. Zeldas ganon (talk) 02:06, March 13, 2012 (UTC)
 * Uh, no offense, but you're not. And no, I am in no way saying you shouldn't write how you want to, nor was I saying there was anything wrong with an interest in medieval stuff anyways. I was merely expressing a humorous notion I had thought of. It wasn't a slight against you. <font color="#14148A">Xykeb  <font color="#4B0082">Yvolix   Zraliv  02:09, March 13, 2012 (UTC)

Votes for Bellumbeck

 * 1) I really have to vote for Bellumbeck here. I haven't fought Nabooru yet in OoT, and Bellum was an interesting villain. Plus Bellumbeck was fun to fight. -- The One And Only Guitar Hero   Talk to TOAOGH |undefined You can't believe everything online, that's what started WW1 18:30, February 12, 2012 (UTC)
 * 2) I liked Linebeck better, and it was a much bigger surprise when he turned into the final boss then her being a mini-boss. Also, he was just awesome actually trying to fight Bellum.  Ike  19:27, February 12, 2012 (UTC)
 * 3) While the Iron Knuckle for Nabooru was cool and all, this boss was original and the only one of its kind, whereas there were multiple Iron Knuckles in OOT. Plus Linebeck was a much more developed character than Nabooru, which made this battle even more epic. - 20:19, February 12, 2012
 * 4) You know, I was actually planning on voting for Nabooru when I came here, but I actually have to go for Bellumbeck here. While Iron Knuckles themselves are way better than Phantoms, I just found Linebeck's possession and battle more aesthetically pleasing somehow. <font color="#14148A">Xykeb  <font color="#4B0082">Yvolix   Zraliv  01:20, February 13, 2012 (UTC)

 * 7) First of all, I looooove Linebeck, he's one of my favorite characters in the series. (Plus I love his theme) I like the fact that he abandoned his cowardice to stab Bellum in the tentacle! That said, it's not why I voted for Bellumbeck. I voted for Bellumbeck because it is a well-made boss, it forced a reaction out of me much more than fighting an underdeveloped gerudo character did, and it was just plain fun! I know some people complained that the time-stops were difficult to do at all, let alone with the right timing, and that was a bit of a problem for me as well, but it wasn't enough to turn me off the entire battle.

 * 10) I thought this battle was a bit more fun, even though it's from the vastly inferior game. The battle was more difficult, at least, which is a bit out of character for Phantom Hourglass. Never understood why people make such a big deal out of Iron Knuckle battles, anyway. Jedimasterlink (talk) 05:43, February 20, 2012 (UTC)

 * 2) Can't help but throw my vote here. Iron knuckles have long been my favorite enemy in the series, Phantoms, not so much. That plus Nabooru herself was a half decent character and the aspect of fighting an ally came across more effectively by not leaving it as a final boss. She would also have been ally worthy of killing had the game a higher rating.

 * 4) Wow, this was a hard choice. However, Nabooru was definitely more of a challenge than Bellumbeck. Even if Linebeck&mdash;as a character&mdash;was better than Nabooru, this is about the bosses, so she wins. &mdash;<font color="Blue">Ceiling  <font color="Orange">Master  19:02, February 12, 2012 (UTC)
 * 5) A worthy fight between two indomitable warriors! I just find myself leaning slightly towards Nabooru here, I swear she attacks faster than ordinary Iron Knuckles, and that's a killer in OoT 3D Master Quest. That.... damnable spin attack! I just wonder how much trouble the Hylians would have had with these ladies in the field... --Naxios10 (talk) 02:14, February 13, 2012 (UTC)
 * 6) It's not really Linebeck. It's more of a symbol of everything wrong with Phantom Hourglass made flesh/steel hybrid. Seriously, could you possibly provide more of a desensitizing, annoyingly stupid endgame than that? In Zelda, I mean. FPS games don't count. That being said, I still can't really ever make up my mind whether Nabooruknuckle's slapstick "entrance" is jarringly out of place, or a welcome bit of comic relief after an hour or so of mind-warping freaky music.--<font color="#3ba0c5">Auron  Kaizer <font color="#3ba0c5">!  19:24, February 13, 2012 (UTC)
 * 7) This was one of the most interesting battles from the game if not the Zelda series as a whole. --EveryDayJoe45 (talk) 12:51, February 16, 2012 (UTC)
 * 8) I don't like Nabooru, so I don't care if I have to beat her up. With Bellumbeck, I get to beat up one of my favorite Zelda characters. Yayyy? ShyGuyFan
 * 9) Hmmmmm lets see, fav character, fav boss, fav Temple, second favorite game....I rest my case. LoZSuperFan1
 * 10) I loved Nabooru and her work... (even if brainwashed) KingGoku (talk) 00:11, February 18, 2012 (UTC)
 * 11) i think nab would win due to the fact that she gave me an extremly hard time and Bellumbeck was kind of a push over for me. User:Dinoman21
 * 12) Nabooru has an Iron Knuckle? i did not saw that coming... --Longhorn Velez (talk) 00:05, March 2, 2012 (UTC)

Anonymous votes

 * 1) First anon vote. My instinct was to vote on the right (as usual). I haven't exactly gotten to this point in the game, but anything over a fight that doesn't even stick out in my mind.
 * 2) Iron Knuckles for the win. Their armor is so shiney! And they have a huuuge axe. Bellumback is more annoying because you have to stop the time and all, but just because you cannot beat him any other way, doesn't make him better. And besides, which evil entity calls himself Bellum? That's not threatening at all!
 * 3) This fight angered me so much! Be it was a good challenge, and it made me feel very proud when I won. OoT FTW!
 * 4) i loved this fight but i hated the bellum one it was annoying a crud and was impossible to do
 * 5) Iron Knuckles are epic. Never played WW.
 * 6) The DS games wern't that good, and OOT was da bomb, sooo... yeah...
 * 7) OoT is probably more fun.  I haven't even played any Zelda DS game.  PS #5 the other thing is in PH not WW.
 * 8) IIIIIRRRROOOONNN KKKKNNNUUUCCCKKKLLEE!!!!!!!!!!
 * 9) Bellum/Bellumbeck is likely one of the least interesting villains in the entire series, and with Phantom Hourglass being infinitely the low point of a typically spectacular franchise, this one's a no-brainer. Sage of Spirit REPRESENT.
 * 10) At least, Nabooru did look evil when sealed in her knuckle armor, and she turned out to be very helpful in the game. Bellum was a real joke.
 * 11) Nabooru was a mini-boss that was hard. Bellum was just a fail.

Hopefully I did a better job with the colors, while the intro is a bit weak, I think I've improve a bit. –  Jä zz  i  17:00, February 12, 2012 (UTC)
 * Colours do look nice though Bellumbeck's does look a bit similar to the sandship's from last week's match. Not sure if that would be classed as a problem though. I also find the line "transformed by the dark powers of the World of the Ocean King" a bit jarring. Not only does it have the words of the almost in succession but I'm not sure how accurate it is to refer Bellum that way. Even so it's still probably better than what I could do. <font color="#66FFFF">Oni <font color="#7F007F">Dark  <font color="#007A00">Link 17:06, February 12, 2012 (UTC)
 * I agree about the colors. Also, changed the intro slightly so it would be about this week's fight. Anonymous (Talk)

To anonymous voter #2, Bellum is the latin word for war. Last time I checked, war is an intimidating name. --Hydropanda (talk) 23:32, February 12, 2012 (UTC)
 * Also, I don't think Bellum chose to call himself that. Last I checked people don't get to choose their names... Nilk ''' admin

 * It's mildly amusing that we're having this conversation about people not getting to choose their own names, while using names we all chose for ourselves. And I'm with IceFlame, I'l abstain from voting since I haven't played PH (though I guess that didn't stop me with the Sandship).--<font color="Green">Fierce <font color="SaddleBrown">Deku 22:46, February 14, 2012 (UTC)

I can't reasonably cast a vote here since I don't own a DS and thusly haven't played PH. These DS vs Console game wars are terribly one-sided since most Zelda fans are familiar with the consoles while relatively few have played the DS games. <font color="#3ba0c5">Ice <font color="Red">Flame 19:54, February 13, 2012 (UTC)

Hey, anon #3 for Bellumbeck? Pi is 3.14159265358979, not 3.14159265358917. &mdash;<font color="Blue">Ceiling <font color="Orange">Master  03:50, February 27, 2012 (UTC)
 * More to the point is the fact that knowing digits of pi (or not knowing digits of pi, as the case may have it) has little to nothing to do with actual aptitude at math. <font color="#14148A">Xykeb  <font color="#4B0082">Yvolix   Zraliv  00:22, February 28, 2012 (UTC)
