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 only vote 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 put in the anonymous sections will only count as 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 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.
 * A short notification must be made before changing the fight.
 * Please don't use talk templates.

In the sand red corner, we have a famous thief who resided in Kakariko Village. However, at some point, he stumbled into the Dark World and became a servant to the King of Evil, Ganon, who assigned him to guarding the Thieves' Town. Our hero eventually ventures to the Thieves' Town to save one of the Seven Maidens and finds her; however, on their way out, they happen upon a bright room, where it is the revealed that the Maiden is actually this villain. THIS. IS. BLIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIND!!!

In the violent violet corner is an ancient king of the realm of Ikana. Though the kingdom eventually fell, this mighty spirit returned from the grave to haunt the Ancient Castle of Ikana. He guarded the Castle, protecting it from outsiders and those who might bring light to the decrepit castle. The hero eventually infiltrates this castle and finds the Throne Room where this ancient King sits and utilizes the light to defeat him. THIS. IS. IGOS DU IKAAAAAANAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!

We know this match is exciting, but don't lose your head! ...Get it, because... Oh, nevermind, LLLLLLLLLLLLET'S GET RRRRRRRRRRRREADY TO RUUUUUUUUUMMMMMMMMMMMMBLE!!!

Votes for Blind

 * 1) He's Blind, and he's badass. Made me lose more than once when I first played, and puts up a hard fight even today. That, and he genuinely surprised me the first time I went into the light room with what I assumed to be a "fair maiden". Igos was more of a joke character than anything, what with employing such obvious bodyguard failures. Battle with the man himself can be troublesome, though. And Blind didn't go and sing a song for me in a damned creepy voice. --Auron  Kaizer !  20:43, March 24, 2011 (UTC)
 * 2) To use the words of my good friend Admiral Ackbar, "It's a trap!" --Birdman5589 (talk) 21:01, March 24, 2011 (UTC)
 * 3) Igos wins too much. Plain and simple. --EveryDayJoe45 (talk) 21:03, March 24, 2011 (UTC)
 * 4) Blind is from LttP, which is my first ever Zelda game. My feeling of nostalgia takes the cake on this one. Mr kmil [[File:Spin Attack (A Link to the Past).gif]] 12:33, March 25, 2011 (UTC)
 * 5) He can make a bedsheet look sexy. -Stars  talk  http://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y27/pyroac/Starssprite.gif 23:43, March 26, 2011 (UTC)
 * 6) Kickass thief dude with awesome manga artwork. I THINK YES. -Minish   Link  23:54, March 26, 2011 (UTC)
 * 7) He pretended to be a girl, and I thought he actually was... Plus he's from ALttP, which in my opinion is MUCH better then Majora's Mask.--Links Girlfriend

 * 2) Point 1: He has a head-laser. Point 2: I love how he turns around. And point 3: What better way to defeat a boss (the second time) by smacking his head back to his headless body?!

Votes for Igos du Ikana

 * 1) I really like this skeleton guy!--User:CerberuΣ GR Phantom Guardian (Phantom Hourglass).png-The Guardian  of Underworld  21:25, March 24, 2011 (UTC)
 * 2) I really think Igos is a great character. There's a lot of depth in the words that he says about petty fighting and forgiving failures. Even though he turned evil and uber skeletal you can tell in life he would of been a really great king. If everybody followed Igos' philosophy we'd probably have a much better world, Oni Dark  Link 22:03, March 24, 2011 (UTC)
 * 3) I just might create a rift in the space-time continuum that destroys us all by doing this, but...what Oni said. Jedimasterlink (talk) 18:11, March 25, 2011 (UTC)
 * 4) Igos is just plain awesome. King of the Twilight (talk)
 * 5) I hated the other guy so much.  The annoying pipsqueak posed as a maiden AND I THING IT'S A GUY!!! How wrong is that?!?  I'm going with this guy (can't remember/pronounce name)! BlueLink.jpg.gif Blue  Link  BlueLink.jpg.gif  17:05, March 26, 2011 (UTC)
 * 6) I found Blind annoying rather than hard, but Igos was pretty fun AND his henchmen were funny. Not to mention he was in MM.  Ike  17:14, March 26, 2011 (UTC)
 * 7) Played both games, Igos is awesome and blind... isn't. --94.108.235.139 09:21, March 27, 2011 (UTC)

 * 1) I'm sorry, I just can't bring myself to vote for a guy in a dress over the king of a cursed kingdom. I just can't.
 * 2) Holy Crap! It's about time it changed!!!!!!!!!!
 * 3) No contest 1. He's a skeleton the awesomest of the undead.2.he can teach you how to make creepy Link statues.3.He thinks you're a giant skeleton when you put on the (skeleton) mask.
 * 4) Obviously Igos. He is the king of a place. the other guy is not. arguement = invalid
 * 5) This-guy-is-AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!
 * 6) As much as I love Blind, Igos is WAY better. I mean, he's the king of a cursed kingdom, he and his lackies have the most AWESOME banter, and the Elegy of Emptiness is the best song in the game. I mean who doesn't love the creepy statues the song makes?
 * 7) Just look at him.
 * 8) I LOVE majora's mask, and this guy reminds me of the only thing I fear about this game *shivers* BEN!!!!

In the Zora Tunic Blue corner, we have a guard of the Rito persuasion living on a semi-active volcano. Standing post outside the Chieftain's room, this laid back, smitten guard requests you get him a Golden Feather, THIS. IS. HOOOSSSSKIIIT!!!

In the Spoiled Red Potion Orange corner, we have a presumed father requesting a mask for his son. Standing post at the gate of Death Mountain, not letting you pass till he obtains Zelda's Letter, THIS. IS. KEAAAAAATOOON MAAAAAAASSSK SOOOOLLDIEEEEEEERRRR!!!

Votes for Hoskit

 * 1) Fly away Hoskit, be free! --Birdman5589 (talk) 01:31, February 28, 2011 (UTC)
 * 2) The other guy annoyed me. Besides, Hoskit is a Rito. - Is  drak  thül  01:44, February 28, 2011 (UTC)

 * 1) Rito vs. Some random Hylian soldier dude...Yeah, my vote's going to the Rito just because I'm biased. I love Rito's more than Hylians, plus he was more memorable than the other guy.
 * 2) Hmmm... let me think... a guy in a silly mask, who lets you pass, or a bird-man who gives you a heart piece?
 * 3) Let's look at the basics. Firstly, Hoskit guards the Chief's quarters. Mr. Hero Keaton Kokiri eating man only opens the door when royalty allows it, and when they DO (as in OoT), he STILL DOESN'T OPEN IT! I mean, really! The nerve! Then there's the romance issues. Keaton Man won't be attracting many Gerudos to him any time soon, or any other race, not even Goron women if there are any if he's wearing that Keaton's Mask (wasn't that supposed to be given to his son anyway?), while our candidate Hoskit needs a simple little help, and rewards you far more in kind, while Mr. K man sends you off and pays you nothing more than what you wanted it for. The choice to me seems very obvious.
 * 4) The Masked soldier is weird! the ruto guy is awesome its no contest :D!!!
 * 5) DUUUH Rito postmen tribe OWNS the soldier who is childish enough to wear a Keaton Mask, which probably never gets him a girlfriend..

 * 12) He's from OoT plus its weird he said the mask was for his son but hes always wearing it.LinksGirlfriend

 * 14) Seven years later, Ganondorf has disposed of all of the Hylian guards. And this guy's in his house, way out of Ganondorf's way, devoting his time to his dearest of hobbies. The lesson? Pokémon saves lives. ConstantCabbage (talk) 02:43, March 6, 2011 (UTC)

 * 16) He's just trying to be a good father...--Longhorn Velez (talk) 00:11, March 8, 2011 (UTC)
 * 17) I will continue to wonder if this was an intentional Pokemon reference and if he is ever going to take that mask off and give it to his son. King of the Twilight (talk)
 * 18) I like this guy better, because He stands out. The Rito guy, i've never heard of. --~Linkerbm 10:42, March 16, 2011 (UTC)

It has some web snot thing going on and, you know, webs are cool and snot is... not that cool, but maybe among other Madderpillars that's the hot thing.

Votes for Moldorm

 * 1) Madderpillar is just an average mook. Moldorm, at least the A Link to the Past one, can still get me, and throw me down to the floor underneath if I'm not careful. That's as close as I can get to losing these days. And that's something.

 * 1) I hate Moldorm so much, especially the Link to the Past one. I can't even COUNT how many times I've been knocked back down to the previous floor by Moldorm while trying to kill it. I have no idea what the other worm monster thing is, so my vote is going for the most annoying monster/boss in Zelda.
 * 2) MEH.
 * 3) Moldorm is in awesomer games.
 * 4) Neh, Madderpillar wasn't that hard.. Moldorm on the other hand made me freak out when I tried not to be blown off again when battled the second time in ALttP..
 * 5) Never played MC.
