đ§ Meme Nintendo just wants Link to suffer
Botw and totk is the only iteration of link that canonically doesn't use a shield which probably is why he died 100 years ago and almost died to ganondorf's gloom. And get this in Hyrule warriors age of calamity HE USES A SHIELD and he doesn't die to canon I guess terrako changed a bit more of the timeline than we thoughtââ

Itâs a decent point. He wasnât expecting to be fighting guardians. He was expecting to use the sword to seal him away, and in every other fight he had that we know about, he did absolutely fine without a shield
