- Link is too goofy. Tears of the Kingdom looks alright though.

Zelda: Our last line of defense will be Link!
Link: Well, excuuuuuuuuse me, Princess
The Legend of Zelda Series and Terminalmontage Flaschbacks.
Old and gold joke.
zelda: you're excused 🤨 and im not your princess
a good choice
*Rauru said that, not Zelda
I think this is also further highlighted by little moments of his characterization, like the fact that in the prequel spinoff Age of Calamity, it's shown that Link loves eating rocks
Dont just call the delicacy that is Goron Rock filet „rocks“
In all honesty, the quest where you actually see that thing it does look delicious, like a giant rock and magma ham
Bro eats rocks
He will eat anything it’s stated that he has a bottomless stomach and loves food
@@CheeseChud Link just like me fr
@@thepizzafoogle5481 he not called the pizzafoogle for no reason
"Our last line of defense will be- Nevermind he's speedrunning banging Paya. Goddamnit Link."
Good one

Nice pfp
Press A to pound!
Give a random pumpkin to a child to... Actually, I'm not going to finish that sentence...
Link is somehow the most badass brutal one-man army while simultaneously being a clumsy goofball ragdolling after stubbing his toe, and I feel like this meme perfectly encapsulated the joy of playing BotW
you forgot to add the fact he now owns an Engineering Degree from Hyrule Institute of Technology
The guy stares down the primordial incarnation of hatred and evil without flinching. He also hums little tunes to himself as he cooks. The duality of man
@@RainbowDj7 Gotta find some light in the darkness
People say that Lore accurate Link is the badass one who completes his tasks perfectly. But I think that Link is actually a goofball just like us, or else why would they give us the option to do this stuff?
Well I guess he IS 17 so it tracks
Exact opposite energy as the “But Link, I’m not sure you’ll be able to stop him,” meme (which is followed by Link doing insane gameplay). Kinda goes with the lore-accurate link meme.
Biblically accurate link
Lmao
I love how everyone agrees that link is an unreliable force of nature instead of a valiant knight.

Imagine being the last hope to kill ganon and killing him slowly with a stick. People literally do that in this game.
I can just imagine Link with an entire inventory full of sticks fusing them so they last longer
@@LemonMori
"Hyah!" (Translation: "I have an inventory full of sticks, all the time in the world and a METRIC SHIT TON of anger to work through. I'm the only one that is going to enjoy this.")
Please tell me they do it in his underwear....
I mean lore link deflected lazer beams with pot lids so i can see him doing that
Last time, Link woke up remembering nothing except *anger.*
This time, he remembers _everything._
Ganondorf was not ready.
Tbf the direct previous game requiring Link to be a femboy to get one of the Divine Beasts doesn't help. The game outright requires you to be a silly little guy
Everything for the success of the mission...
@@MikaelHermes 5 dollars is 5 dollars
Wjy does your comment not have a 0° angle? Why the fuck is it angled? Is this a glitch?
Well technically you don’t HAVE to do that quest… but yes you are correct
@@lightestseedtechnically you don’t have to do any quests and can beat the game in under half an hour without speed run techs, but that doesn’t change the fact that every quest including that one is canon.
One of the most line defenses of all time
I can feel Link coming inside of me 😍
The part when Link stated with a wild breath that he is the legend of Zelda literally made me shed a tear of a kingdom
@@NetBattler... u wut?
“Our last line of defense will be link”
Link driving the most batshit insane contraption while the bad piggies theme is playing in the background:
I mean. If it work it works. Link making pseudo Fantasy tanks with his new powers is not only justified but insane and goofy. Like imagine him straight up designing whole one man siege contraptions destroying all of the fortresses of Ganons minions doing the work of hundreds of warriors by himself and all of that still coming off as some of the most loony toons shit imaginable.b
Link, you've been asleep for one hundred years.

I loved seeing paya get so embarrassed.
The bokoblins are flustered, that’s why they’re hostile

All I can say is, all of these Link fails are utterly glorious.

Agreed
Glad to see a legend of Zelda meme this notable pop up. I’ve been following this trend closely as a large fan of the franchise. Also totk comes out ON MY BIRTHDAY, so I’m super excited
Happy early b-day
That's awesome! I hope you have a great birthday!
Hey, hope you have a great bday, mate! ^^
Lucky you, like Eiji Aonuma giving you a present himself, I’d imagine?
@@jayde4872 ikr, I’m still a little shocked every time I see the release date. Out of all the days, it feels intentional almost
Zelda is the only one holding link back from basically doing anything he wants.
With the amount of goofy stuff you can do in Breath of the Wild, i had an small feeling that people would meme out that line from the trailer
"Link will be our last line of defence." No, he will be the reason you have a last line of defence.
This is probably why Link doesn't have a helper for these two games. Half the dialogue would be "What does this have to do with saving Hyrule?" and "Are we even IN Hyrule anymore?"
Something not brought up is the reverse effect that this meme also brought about ; there are some variations of it that instead feature absolutely insane, gamebreaking footage of link demolishing opponents with skill far beyond that of the average player, and I find it really interesting how well the meme works in both contexts
The hype for this game is so astronomical, it is in itself a meme
The hype is in itself a meme? WTF are you even saying man. Stop being an NPC
Honestly, Link being portrayed as such a noble hero is half the reason people play him as such a degenerate goblin boy.
"Our last line of defense" is equivalent to "A weapon to surpass metal gear"
"He's our last line of defense."
*"No, he's seeing how far he can dive without breaking every bone in his body."*
In link's defence, making robots with zonai pp is an integral part of saving the world
What makes this meme even better imo is the rise of videos where the line is followed by montages or Link tearing through enemies which further demonstrates the dichotomy between Link lore accurate representation of a valiant hero and a life for running on a single brain cell
In BotW, there is a few of zeldas journals that talk about Link, and he is described as cold and stoic on the outside, but a goof ball on the inside.
Memer's last line of defense would be LIMC.
i feel like the potential for shenanigans added by the new gameplay mechanics has officially changed Link's class from "Action Twink" to "Weird Little Guy"
This zelda hero has to be very brave to save the princess
Must be, if he's a legend.
Crazy thing is goofing off is totally within a lot of Link's characters
I’m so glad Zelda memes are back
Our last line of defense will be Link!
Link: Proceeds to Flambé every Korok he finds.
"In video games, the rules of time do not exist in the same manner in which they do in the real world."
Meanwhile in Majora's Mask:
Tears of the Kingdom in only a few days ladies and gentlemen. Get exited
Only 3 days left
We shall win with the power of science GET EXCITED
Of all the lines of defense, Link is certainly one of them
Halfway through ToTK, and it's safe to say Nintendo has made special yet again that will change the gaming landscape just like its predecessor
Go into this game blind, because the events in this game and the twists on its own mechanics, that synergise so well, are mindblowing sometimes
How do you know??
@@jacksondavies1451 Arrrr, piracy 🏴☠️
@@jacksondavies1451 The whole game leaked last week, some people already played it
Same here, it's beyond incredible, it's basically BotW but 10 folds
I can't tell for how many years I've been watching your content, but it just came to realization how much you've been part of my life as an entertainment source for the past few years! Thank you! fr
"I'm not the hero the world wants, and i'm not the hero the world needs. But i am the hero, that the world gets."

link either dies from a door or ignores the laws of electromagnetism and biology to phase through walls, fling himself across a continent, and curb stop ganon in less than half an hour, no in between
"Our last line of defense will be Link!"
Link builds a Mad Max Fury Road car with Koroks attached to the bumper.
Can't wait to save the kingdom by turning movable objects into honey colored objects that can send me to Narnia
So cool
That a little meme in the Zelda community got featured on your channel
This actually makes me want an official movie to see what the intended version of link is
Fallout 4: wants me to find my family
Me for the next 50 years: hangs with mc cready
Players controlling Link as if he were Finn from Adventure Time is just wholesome
zelda been fighting for her life for 100 years for link to finally wake and just to watch him eat like 30 apple's in the span of 0.001 before he gets atomized by a lynel
surprised you didn't note the reverse: some of the videos instead showing Link as 'lore accurate' and flat out wiping the monsters off the face of the earth.
She said "Link? 🥺"
But she meant "Link 😱"
Link is a wacky man in CANON, like, that dude eats rocks
Thanks, I’ve been waiting on a lesson for this meme! Great job!
How to get good at ToTK: Screw around and find out.
All I know is the you caught Ganon mid-suavemente
Link, you are our last line of defe- wait Link, what are you doing? Link you can't just crucify the koroks like that!
Zelda can see *everything* Link's doing while she holds Ganon in the castle
So she sees how much of skilled moron he is
This MIGHT be a certified hood classic ‼️
Rauru: Our last line of defense will be Link.
Link: **killing Hinoxs with cock and balls and crucifying koroks with flamethrowers**
Lets go Link
link fucking sucks
Theirs a reason he's the last line of defense. Dude to busy finding all 900 Korok seeds to be the first.
I love this meme format and that how some are actually Link being competent.
Of course he can have you seen his satelite cannon he built
It's also interesting that there is also a variation (less common) of this meme where link is controlled by a speedrunner and does crazy stuff
I like how this can go both ways:
If the player is playing the game competently and like Link would (rare), he would be saved as their last defense because he's powerful and intimidating.
However, if you're a normal player, and you act like an idiot sometimes, Rauru is probably saying that Link's the last line of defense because, "Well, he's a dumbass, lets just shove him in the back."
This just makes me like Link more.
Certain artists already made him really likable already.
bro the koron sacrifices are wild
We making it out of hyrule with this one 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Sometimes, he acts like he should be the first line of defense instead, but whenever he’s not doing that, he uses the Ultrahand to commit war crimes against Koroks.
I love the way that everytime link gets hit or is flung he just tumbles uncontrollably 😂
I don't think Shigeru Miyamoto ever expected making Link in 1986 a blank slate for the players would have affected his character's identity so serendipitously almost 40 years later...
“Our last line of Defense will be link”
*dies from falling off a cliff
"Our last line of defense will be Link."
Zelda:... WAIT WHAT!?
The *Last* line of defense - for when you've expended every other choice.
Ok, most people don't know but this meme is used to make the algorithm show those memes instead of totk leaks, 3 days to go!
Hyrule’s planet isn’t flat or round.
It’s doomed.
Link please for the love of god why do you need to collect 900 golden shits
There is also a version of this meme that uses skilled players most badass footage.
Link IS dangerous...
If used right.
Links gonna goof around hyrule in a mech and I’m ready for it
He does minor amounts of tomfoolery
our last line of defense is the EDF
Link might have the Hero's Soul but he has the Player's Heart.
And then there is the alt version where Link kills everything in 1 combo whit the power of 3 nukes
My link took an extra 5 years to even get one divine beast
Link you are our final hope… well excuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuse me
It really gives me "that's gotta be the greatest pirate I've ever seen." "So it would seem." vibes.
"Our last line of defense will be link."

Only two more days!
“Our last line of defense will be link”
Crucified korok: i just wanted to see my friend
Flamethrower penis statue: **exists**
Link: tumbling down a mountain and diving to his death
Another thing about this meme is that it was made to combat the spoilers for Tears of the Kingdom! A whole group of small youtubers made this campaign to spam the meme everywhere, and it is working.
Listen there's a reason he's the last and not first line of defense.
*Ganon watching as link throws pots at him to kill him:*
Link is either horrifyingly efficient or a a fickle demigod accidentally stumbling upon plot at his leisure, but he's never to be trifled with.
He rain death upon a whole town at the smallest provocation.
I saw this video and then I saw one after another pop up and I told myself "This is going into meme culture"
"link what are you doing to that disguised yiga member?"
