Top 10 Legend of Zelda Bosses That Will Make You Rage Quit

welcome to watch mojo and today we're counting down our picks for the top 10 hardest zelda bosses stay on your edge link this formidable adversary was made by ganny and brought me to a warrior's demise 100 years ago for this list we'll be looking at those bosses who can make links scream in frustration or fear before we jump into the video we've done a deep dive of this list's number one entry over on mojo plays so be sure to check it out once you're done number 10 majora's mask the legend of zelda majora's mask [Applause] sticking to the franchise's standard formula for a three-phase final boss encounter majora's mask is only as difficult as link wants the battle to be while all three forms have their hurdles especially the final version majora's wrath the fierce deities mask greatly reduces the threat offered by the boss however if link is confident enough to face majora's mask without an ace in the hole or opts against eliminating the boss remains as early as possible then this boss battle can be quite a punishing one the legend of zelda games are rarely about their difficulty but majora's mask's titular boss can put up quite a fight number nine starlord the legend of zelda twilight princess [Music] armed with a spinner and up against a bony dragon with a scimitar stabbed into its skull link better have a strong stomach because he spends most of this fight bouncing all over the place stallord is unlikely to kill link but landing hits on the boss while getting used to the spinner and avoiding the stall troops can be frustrating stallord's second form is considerably less annoying than its predecessor and the fight becomes far easier on subsequent playthroughs but the first time going up against this dragon is a test of patience and timing number eight muldorm the legend of zelda a link to the past [Music] boss fights are not just about the massive creatures trying to send link into the afterlife sometimes the arena is the hardest part featured in multiple games and always annoying muldorm is a worm-like boss with a tail for a weak point and a fondness for knocking linked down holes in a link to the past the fight itself is simple enough but falling down a pit situated in the arena resets maldorm's health the player must be constantly aware of their position while timing their attacks just right as striking any part besides maldorm's tail will send link flying number seven vati the legend of zelda the minish cap [Music] for what is generally a pretty easy game the minish cap ramps up the difficulty considerably in its final hours vati is worthy of a final boss a three-stage encounter that requires link to use many of the tools and skills he picked up throughout his adventure vati does not waste any time as its first reborn form uses projectiles that must be destroyed before the boss can be damaged and also teleports to keep link at a distance the second form is on a whole other level mainly because the cloning mechanic needs to be used before link can move on to vadi's hard but manageable third phase number 6 thunderbird zelda 2 the adventure of link a side-scrolling rpg quite unlike any other entry in the franchise the adventure of link is a contender for the hardest zelda game ever while far from the only tough boss thunderbird is a hard-hitting and unforgiving end-game encounter after link casts thunderbird and makes the boss vulnerable to damage it just becomes a matter of avoiding a symphony of fireballs while striking blows to the creature's head the reflex spell can make the battle easier but this is one encounter that is primarily reflex driven thunderbird is like the legend of zelda's version of a bullet held boss [Music] number five puppet gannon the legend of zelda the wind waker [Music] link better get comfortable using a boomerang and a bow puppet ganon is visually striking in all of its three phases but the challenge lies in the fact that link has to strike its tail with light arrows to score a hit although its attacks are not especially difficult to avoid puppet ganon never stops moving which makes it quite infuriating to cut the first form strings using a boomerang before attacking its tail with the arrows regardless of what animal or bug it happens to be mimicking puppet ganon is a proper test of link's quick reflexes and sharp shooting skills number four york the legend of zelda majora's mask as the boss of the great bay temple gyorg can be very irritating on a blind playthrough this boss with teeth for days moves quickly fires out minimes to frustrate zoro link and has it difficult to avoid close quarters attack that bites hard in the original game the fight can be cheesed by just firing arrows from the arena central platform but the 3ds remake removes that option and throws in a second stage that involves a lot of sucking and bombs with the slower movement of zoro link in the remake jorg might even surprise veterans of the nintendo 64 original [Music] number three thunder blight ganon the legend of zelda breath of the wild this thing is fast watch yourself breath of the wild's open-ended nature means the main bosses can be faced in practically any order even if the other phantoms are defeated first granting link access to useful items like darwix protection thunderblade canon is still never anything short of crushingly difficult while a bit of a glass cannon thunderblade hits quick and hard and its second form revs things up with even more electricity and the occasional laser attack one wrong move or poorly timed parry could leave link vulnerable to a combo and thunderblade ganon does not waste any opportunities number two dark link the legend of zelda ocarina of time [Music] be it as the final hurdle of zelda 2 or a mini boss in ocarina of time dark link tends to always put up a fierce battle unlike most other zelda bosses dark link is a bit more unpredictable as a strategy that worked wonders in one playthrough might not be as fruitful in another dark link is a countering machine and reflects the main protagonist's fighting style although with a few limitations spamming attacks or using the megaton hammer can trivialize the battle on occasion but then there can be times when dark link just seems to decide to mess with the player before we unveil our topic here are a few honorable mentions calamity ganon the legend of zelda breath of the wild because freeing all the divine beasts makes this fight easier but not easy [Applause] twin rova the legend of zelda ocarina of time because ice and fire combined to create one challenging boss fight horseback ganondorf the legend of zelda twilight princess because zelda does not always have her aiming gloves on before we continue

a celebration of the entire game going through multiple stages that harbor back to other breath of the wild bosses mascotia has the speed of thunderblack ganon the raw destructiveness of the guardians and the sheer off actor of calamity ganon whittle down the boss's health enough and mascotia will create clones or power up to a super-sized version of himself with each phase requiring link to use different tactics link and the player have to apply everything they have learned to overcome the final trial [Music] if you want to know why we chose our number one pick for this list head over to
