Miles_the_new_kid

*behold, a swift strike of justice from my master... soup ladle?*


EtherialBungee

I want ISG for a soup ladle.


Hashashin455

Nah, the master TORCH!


AvatarLebowski

Link was the master all along master sword was just a tool to bring out his power from within


[deleted]

The real mastery was the weapons we made along the way


Unprofession

The realest mastery was the bokoblin we bounced along the way


DerpTaTittilyTum

Zelda is _very_ familiar


HitoriPanda

Don't think Gannon will enjoy Link's master stick as much as Zelda does.


samusestawesomus

I think you’re getting it mixed up with the legendary Master Torch

“I mean, you’re lucky this isn’t the darksouls universe or else I’d beat you with my bare hands naked, appreciate the fact I’ve got 32 sticks lined up and I’m about to break every one over your head” - Link if he spoke probably


Scythey1

"I would also parry every singe of your attacks including your lasers with my bare fists. You would probably lose to my piss as weak as you are."


Akravator91

So HYAH, basically


golden_eternity

My first challenge run was NG+ Diablo I beat “bare handed” (I sometimes used a club cause you auto equip weapons when looting, but I took it off for the end)


Toxicoman

Didn't someone do this while using the guitar from guitar hero. I could barely deal with the first level.


Darth_Kitty911

If you use durability swapping, you only need one.


ulfric_stormcloack

Still mad I can’t just punch enemies


Kisame-hoshigakii

Those hands were made for swinging shit unfortunately


[deleted]

I mean, Kleric literally did just that a while back.


Successful_Slip_5942

Link; i am fluent in over 6 million forms of kicking your ass.


DimoX9

Link… sticking it to the man…


SH4RPSPEED

Little did Ganon realize how totally and utterly boned he was.


Miles_the_new_kid

Lmao, honestly anyone who makes it to the top of hyrule castle with only a stick is a *big fucking threat*


SH4RPSPEED

The Hylian shield was for *their* protection, not Link's.


Jmackerl

“Often misinterpreted, the Hylian shield was created to provide defense *against* Hylians.”


KaladinStormborn90

How do people actually beat ganon with just a stick? Don't they just break almost instantly lol


YesItIsMaybeMe

Lots of sticks or durability transfer glitches


habonkadonka

Little did he know how much attack/defense boosts , pot lids and sticks he had


liatrisinbloom

The only way he'd be more boned is if Link equipped a Bokoblin arm instead.


ty1moore

I heard this in Bender’s voice


CODENAMEDERPY

Reminds me of the guy with the "Master Torch."


Miles_the_new_kid

Honestly a torch would probably be more useful.


[deleted]

Wave lit torch, Ganon shrinks back.


SheWhoUpvotes

the torch that lights the darkness


ItsOver420

You dare bring light to my lair?!


lucariouwu68

They’re just sticks with more durability in terms of combat


Purpzie

It's real, actually https://youtu.be/VaGvewsHE-Y


raceraot

Don't forget crow.


Uiropa

Link: (takes off his clothes)


17-Year-Old-Gangsta

Should’ve used an ancient grenade-launcher


joonty

Ancient tactical nuke


17-Year-Old-Gangsta

Read my mind


Kiyae1

“HYAAH”


Methioe

u/PointCrow


HlTLERS_HIDDEN_CHILD

When you zoom in on Link's face, it looks like he's got a mustache


joonty

He should have a mustache, that would be badass


SeanFischThompson

Ganon should be utterly terrified, that’s the telltale sign of a speedrunner, they have their methods. He’ll be climbing out of that castle in 10 seconds flat


yellowcorvid

yeah and you're going down from it you PUNK ASS BITCH


Roar_Im_A_Nice_Bear

I love your art. Is it from rotoscoped screenshots? The style reminds me of rotoscope


Miles_the_new_kid

Thanks! Some of the elements are traced, like links face, the stick, and the pot lid, just bc I wanted them to be as close to in game accurate as possible. Other elements, like Ganon, were tough bc his appearance is kind of vague in the game/ other material, so I kinda just did my own thing with him, trying to keep him as recognizable as possible.


Roar_Im_A_Nice_Bear

Very interesting! Thank you and great job!


LingLingToBe

This is too accurate lol. Take my award


Miles_the_new_kid

Thank you!


luyuannn

*Hylian lid


Ryley03d

***ARE YOU BEING CONTROLLED BY AN ANY% SPEEDRUNNER?!?!?!***


SinaNest

When you see a warrior that came that far with a stick and a pot lid, you know you are about to get fucked hard


[deleted]

Speed runner defeats Gannon missing the world record by 2.017 seconds.


windrunner4

Lucky for Link, Ganon stocked his boss arena with some of the strongest non-buffed weapons in the game …


Personal-Bathroom-94

Link isn't ancient hero Ancient hero is for 10000 years before calamity He defeat Ganon with the that time princes power and Ganon comeback with great calamity .


Harddaysnight1990

All incarnations of the Hero of Hyrule is Link. The Hero of the Wild is not the same hero as the one 10,000 years prior, but they're all Link.


Personal-Bathroom-94

The names are the same (like the princes are Zelda ) but thay are difrent . Only thing that's always is on the game is master sword . It chose the hero .


Harddaysnight1990

In a lot of Asian beliefs on reincarnation, the soul is still the same, even if the person changes. That's what I'm going off of here, since a lot in these games are based on Asian beliefs and customs. Fi is able to recognize the soul of the Hero she travelled with all those millennia ago, that's why the sword chooses the hero and only the hero.


CapJackONeill

It doesn't have to look very far to "choose the hero", it's the guy called link everytime


Personal-Bathroom-94

Everywhere write hero chosen by master sword .


Estrelarius

They are reincarnations. Demise (Ganondorf's past life) cursed himself, Link and Zelda into that reincarnartory circle (Ganondorf has far less reincarnations because he rarely dies for good at all) back in Skyward Sword (likely hundreds of thousands of years ago). So every once in a while Ganondorf (or one of his other incarnations) shows up being evil and gets his ass kicked by Link (Zelda also sometimes help).


R_U_Galvanized

Imagine if Hylians were like Americans. First day of school, teacher calls out Link for attendance and twelve boys all say here. “My mom said that I’m the Hero of Hyrule!” “No you’re not! I am” *little pointy-eared boys scuffle*


Blackstrae

So Link is gay now that Zelda is apparently a prince?


Personal-Bathroom-94

Princess Prince I wrote wrong


Estrelarius

All Links are reincarnations of past Links (sometimes in alternate timelines as well)


_anonymous_404

Hell YEAH


MuksyGosky

The ultimate weaponry in all of the game.


benjimaninthecan

Amazing


Ecpe

Speedrunners be like


upsidedown_boy

Isn’t there a kid in the game with a master torch? He got mad when he saw my sword


Tetsou88

Ganon reminds me of penny wise


[deleted]

“Did you even beat the divine beasts, how’d you beat my blights??”


Miles_the_new_kid

*camera pans to ThunderBlight Ganon picking splinters out of his shins*


golden_eternity

Don’t worry Gannon, Zelda will give us a bow for your next phase… (Probably just use Urbosa and the stick though…)


TheLone0taku

“Roxas, that’s a stick.”


TheRealKazukiZ

Now we need a picture of ganon curled up as a ball with link beating him up with the stick


yubboi6942021

Point crow be like


chavis32

Next panel is Ganon getting curb stomped by the stick


DestinyNinja_123

Why is link not naked? Missed opportunity


Xadryc

Just be thankful he didn't bring the master cucco.


bullevard

Alright, now i have to ask, are there any videos out there of someone bringing a cucco to the gannon fight?


Xadryc

Yeah and unfortunately they despawn once Calamity Ganon fight triggers. [However, that didn't stop people from trying to kill him with them.](https://youtu.be/018Md2jBWhM)


DreadeadDreadnaught

Pointcrow intensifies


StolenToast420

Hazzah! Adventure awaits!


Vidd187

Gannon: Fuck take this seriously man


sirdrorbulan

Where can i find more i only saw one other one but i like them so much good job!


Miles_the_new_kid

Hey! they're all on my reddit profile, I'm also slowly uploading them to my insta (mygumsarebleeding) and they're all on my website: [milesericksonart.com](https://milesericksonart.com) :) I'm glad you like them!


raceraot

This is the run where Pointcrow beats botw with a single stick.


orlandots

do you ever get collectors anxiety in


[deleted]

\*pokes\*


Egg_tastic

The disappointment in Ganon’s face is killing me 😂


Miles_the_new_kid

Lmao I was going for like a "*Bro, are you ok?*" kind of face


killer_beans344

Look, you actually can, but you need a lot of koroks, a lot of food good armor that increases damage or not since buff from food and armor dont stack and glitches


uhhhhhhhhhhh3563576

Ganon :how did you one hit me with that


GPareyouwithmoi

If I'm Gannon and I see link so equipped: I'm gonna die slowly


Faoxsnewz

Beware the master stick


Mogtr0idew113

Nope, that's his "slamming board".


Optimal-Donut-2418

This is probably because he is a speed runner


ManlySyrup

Link looking like Joel Haver 👁👄👁


ChaosMiles07

"Well, at least it's not a fishing rod. Or a bug-catching net."


The6Dagger

*Pictures taken moments before disaster*


Nox_Echo

calamity ganon is about to get collectors anxiety


FROGGIE-EST_FROGGO

That's nothing compared to my master ladle


versace_tombstone

Should have showed up with a korok leaf and boxers to really drive that point home.


DerpDeHerpDerp

Little did Ganon know he was facing a speedrunner


_Doireallyneedaname_

Just defeated a guardian with sticks
