Ryu’s a very strong fighter and he’s already starting to pass Link on the Super Smash Bros tier list. Link has a nice variety of weapons at his disposal like the Light Arrow or the Master Sword, but neither one of those items is enough to stop Ryu. Ryu has way too much power on his side to be defeated and he is actually fast enough to dodge everything at Link’s disposal. Yes, that even includes the Light Arrows. I just don’t see Link being able to stand up to Ryu for very long and he will end up getting a fatal loss in this fight. Ryu wins.
Link chops Ryu up.
I wouldn’t be so sure, his Focus Attack can block any blade!
Put it this way, the way you interpret Ryu he wins the way I do he loses.
Link is quite strong after all and has his Fierce Deity mode so he is certainly a powerful foe here. It’s cool when the reasoning can work both ways.
