Greatest Boss of all Time: Opening Round - Dark Link vs Goro

[Mendel]

Dark Link: Zelda II: The Adventure of Link, Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time

Dark Link is one of the most mysterious bosses in the tournament. Very little is known about this character regarding his origin or his motivation. All that is known is that he is at once Link's opposite and his equal. In each of his appearances, he has challenged Link to battle and has been able to physically match him blow for blow. Because of his mysterious nature, there are many theories, ranging from a Peter Pan homage to a manifestation of Link's dark side, conjured up by Ganon. There is even speculation that Dark Link could be responsible for all the evil in Hyrule, including the existence of Ganon. If this were true, he would instantly be one of the most powerful bosses of the whole tournament.

Goro: Mortal Kombat, Mortal Kombat Armageddon

Back when Mortal Kombat came out, people couldn't stop talking about the graphic violence, the fatalities, and the four armed monster towards the end of the game. Goro was a real pain in the ass back then, and the Prince of the Shokan has never relented in any subsequent game he's been in. In the Mortal Kombat canon, Goro reigned as the champion of Mortal Kombat for 500 years, and even with his limited moveset, his sheer power is more than enough of an explanation. Goro opened the door for Kintaro, Blaze and arguably countless other massive end bosses in other fighting franchises.

Though I don't know much about him, I'm sure Dark Link could beat the crap out of Goro in an evenly matched fight and besides Goro just pissed you off until you got his pattern down pat and then you beat the heck out of him also.

nobody let mycuccismells see this.....but goro....c'mon man he's got 4 frigggin' arms!!!!

[Jaytime]

Yah, but he was a pushover compared to the rest of the guys you fight in the original MK games, he wasn't even really hard to counter and didn't use a cheap moveset, they only gave him like 2 or 3 moves, lol.

Goro is a beast!

Haven't heard much about Goro, but from what I've heard of Dark Link......
Goro=Dead

[BobbyLight]

Yeah, Dark Link all the way here.

If Goro can get beating up by a girl (Katana or Sonya) then he cannot advance within this battle.
