When I first fought Ganondorf in this game, my initial reaction was 'okay, this is a decent fight, but not really standing out over Phantom Ganon aside from him being able to dodge'. Then came phase two. The health bar. His ability to not just dodge attacks, but dodge and counter a Flurry Rush. And him throwing out attacks that went beyond just being gloom damage, and permanently removed hearts... Phase one lulled me into a false sense of security, before giving me the most terrifying and awesome Ganondorf fight in the series. And this song captures it perfectly, IMO. Well done, as always, internet man.
Jesus christ this has honestly been one of the best years of MOTI ever. Just absolute banger after banger being released, so many highly requested songs being done and several songtober songs finally completed.
It was only a matter of time, and this is certainly a time and a half! He sounds so threatening and cocky at the same time, perfect for his character in this game. I would honestly stop fighting and just vibe to this if this played during the fight. LIVING for this!
At least he has a more credible reason for saying it compared to Austrian painter. Since Ganondorf has the triforce of power which grants him nigh god like power
1:53 "I'll skewer your fragile flesh So ends your pitiful quest Show me a warrior Bloodier, gorier One who can give me a test! Through combat be blessed!" 🔥🔥🔥
I'm gonna pull a quick "aChTuALLy" moment here and say that Ganondorf's spear in TOTK is based on the Japanese naginata, which was historically considered a form of katana and, therefore, a sword. So Ganondorf isn't wrong by technicality lmao
I love "you call it courage yet numbers you hide behind," it is hilarious to me that GANONDORF is saying that seeing as he has a, you know, ARMY before you fight him!
Ganondorf wasn’t hiding, Ganondorf is a very arrogant person. He wouldn’t waste his time on someone he deems an unworthy foe, he set up the army as a test for Link. If Link survived, then he would allow Link to fight him man to man. If Link failed, well you get the idea. The point is, Ganondorf is no coward, if anything he’s the opposite. He likes it when he has a challenge. He doesn’t like failure, but he does appreciate a good fight.
@@chadpeterson5698Yeah! He does say that he almost forgot the trill of battle, He like one of those people who like good fight, I mean look at when the past sages tried fighting him, He was smiling the whole time & enjoying seeing them suffer.
@@dr.d2917 and when Rauru promised that Link would defeat him, Ganondorf was legitimately excited about the prospect of a worthy foe. Which also made it all the more disappointing for Ganondorf when Link lost to him while he was at his weakest. And the only reason he accepted Link’s second challenge is because he noticed that Link has gotten stronger than last time.
The suffering Link went through made him stronger. Like everything with Calamity Ganon which Ganondorf was responsible for it all. Link really wanted him dead for revenge. Like for when he killed his fellow champions.
Ganondorf was responsible for everything that happened in Breath Of The Wild despite being sealed beneath Hyrule Castle all that time. Which is impressive.
"Cull weakness from their fragile lives" "You call it courage yet it's numbers you hide behind" "You worship wisdom yet weak are your pitiful minds" I like those lines, they reference the Triforce really well
I don't understand why people think TotK!Ganondorf is a bad villain. He wants to create a world of Survival of the Fittest at its absolute most Sadistic, culling the "weak" that he calls cowards, and as a disabled(invisible but still) woman myself, that makes it PERSONAL.
he's a bad villain because he's poorly written and acts more like a caricature than a fully-fledged character, and is loaded with racist and orientalist stereotypes. there is a flair for dramatics for sure, which is a key element of a Ganondorf depiction, but his presentation only holds up on a surface level and crumbles under any scrutiny. and that is without mentioning the volumes upon volumes of imperialistic propaganda in the game's paper-thin plot also, with the amount of promotion he received, there is a *shockingly* low amount of screentime he gets. people expected a Ganondorf on the level of his WindWaker incarnation and this was absolutely a letdown on all accounts (except for music. his themes go so hard). yours truly, a Ganondorf superfan
@@simonarancheva6946 clearly you’re someone who believes that all villains need to have nuanced and sympathetic traits. Also Ganondorf’s character is in no way racist neither in concept nor in character

He destroyed it, leaving everyone who isn't him, including his own people, to rot. TotK Ganondorf is a prideful ableist, which is a personal sore spot. Sometimes all you need for a villain is for them to rub salt into one of your wounds, and TotK Ganondorf did that spectacularly. Each regional phenomenon was a direct mirror of his views; triumph or perish. Freezing and starving to death? Get over it or you don't deserve life. Pollution? Deal with it or suffer. Addiction?

YESSS! I was hoping to see a cover of this in the original TOTK set of songs and was somewhat disappointed when it wasnt there. So excited to see you all come back to it now! And its amazing
Great, really great. I like that in the thumbnail there was a old version of link (sweet detail ). And i find really glorious the demon form of ganondorf
I said this in one of you other videos but you up and did it again! The way he speaks as if his very word is law just fits him. “A self proclaimed king who will not suffer the light any longer” If you will.
I’ll never forget when I got the hylian shield before the fight not even two minutes into the fight “your hylian shield is badly damaged” I was so scared
The fact we heard ganondorf say the dragmire part of his name goes to show how much attention to detail the team puts into these. It’s simply outstanding
In case if anyone was wondering if certain gloom attacks can be redirected back to the sender, you can hit the bright red gloom with the master sword to do so. Just dodge the gloomy arrows, they are easier to dodge than to hit.

Ganondorf: that only applies if the blood is shown. We don’t show blood here.
Man (on the Internet), between Ganondorf and Kyurem, Dylan is killing it with these Nintendo villains.
I never bothered checking, but didnt he also voice Lacks from... Chrono Trigger?
He also voiced Dharkon and Star Dream.
And Dalv

Exelent work once more, all of you.
Great, really great. I like that in the thumbnail there was a old version of link (sweet detail ). And i find really glorious the demon form of ganondorf
Finally you gave ganondorf the tespect he alone deserves and it was glorious
So hype, do Demon Dragon next
I've been obsessed with this boss theme for months now. So glad you made this!!
Ganondorf looks pretty... Suave, in that work of art. Great art, great song!
i imagine him using the phantom ganons to play the instrumental, while he's singing and fighting
He would 😂😂😂
I thought I was already subscribed. Well that's fixed! Also, a little bit of a song recommendation. You should make a song to represent you!
These lyrics add so much extra aura onto a track I already thought had plenty, so it's safe to say I can't stop looping it.
I said this in one of you other videos but you up and did it again! The way he speaks as if his very word is law just fits him. “A self proclaimed king who will not suffer the light any longer” If you will.
If that video is remixed with fitting Elder Dragons like Malzeno, then of course that will shiver down our spines
I’m crying with happiness now
Also I have a feeling that Dylan will end up being typecast as a villain on this channel like Alex himself was.
all that remains is an epic finale befitting of the last bout of the 2 dragons
I hope this means Mucktoroc, Queen Gibdo, and Marbled Gohma (and maybe even Demon Dragon) get MOTI covers! Banger as always MOTI Team!
They only did this one because this song was the most requested by the Zelda fans, so the other songs probably won’t get the same attention
