Don´t you mean Capcom, or are you referring to the genesis/Mega Drive game?ghirmeshk said:StriderAs in old Sega, not LotR.
Asuna's sword isn't proof that she is a better it's just proof that her sword is incredibly potent, same with Rakan and Guts they aren't necessarily better swordsmen they just have awesome swords, although those 2 are insanely good with swords, but they have never once walked out with the bare-minimum of what it takes to be called a sword and just fucked everyone's shit up like they were 6 year old girls, this is why Link is a better swordsman, because he goes out with a sharp piece of metal with a handle and guard and stabs things until they stop moving, huge things, wearing or being made of armor, typically with powers like being able to breathe fire or are electrically charged. Admittedly Rakan and Guts can both do this, but they are superhuman and Link isn't, which makes him the better fighter, just not as horrifyingly efficient.NubletInc said:Oh hell yeah rakan, but then how bout asuna and setsuna? asuna's blade cancels magic (proved when negi used it against rakan)Kais86 said:Guts of Berserk gets a special mention for being batshit crazy, although he is a far sight more sane than the rest of his universe, and inhumanly powerful.
Special mention for Jack Rakan of Mahou Sensei Negima, for being able to conjure swords the size of skyscrapers, at will, he is also probably the single most dangerous swordsman ever conceived.
However I have to give it to Link for being only a low-tier superhuman (he's really tough and that's about it, hell he isn't even that at the start of his games) but has the cajones to set out to kill giant monsters with only a sword, shield, and whatever item he gets in that stage, but frankly he has been shown to be able to kill them with just his bare hands, that and he can take on his world's god of POWER! With only a sword designed to kill evil and a shield which is nigh-indestructible, oh and occasionally a bow and arrow.
Yeah, the old genesis game. A guy in a cape and some sewers. It was just mindless funminoes said:Don´t you mean Capcom, or are you referring to the genesis/Mega Drive game?ghirmeshk said:StriderAs in old Sega, not LotR.
Fun game indeed, too bad Capcom hasn´t released a new Strider since the PSX one. But looking at what they did to "Final Fight" that is probably not a bad thing.ghirmeshk said:Yeah, the old genesis game. A guy in a cape and some sewers.

I'll second that one, he has a blade made of meteor.Kais86 said:I'd actually like to mention Sokka of Avatar the last Airbender but he isn't quite up to par with ANY of the swordsmen mentioned here, then again he was trained in swordsmanship in a single day and has since proven to be more dangerous in a fight than veteran warriors with years of practice and actual experience conducting war.
