WW Link.

BotW Link will be.

It just gets worse over time desu.

So the best one is probably the oldest one.

But nothing tops CD-i Link

...

Well excuuuuse me princes

BOTW Link looks like a faggot

You posted it. Strong, bright colors, not too busy or cluttered with shit, clearly visible muscles and hair parted down the middile instead of a swoosh like the other faggots.

...

...

this one

>Middle part as a positive aspect
That shit's awful

BotW, WW, OoT and MM are all top tier candidates.

Shota and twinkLink are the best. Early designs are ugly as fuck, masculine designs are ok but not great.

>yesand.jpg

Him having an open forehead hairstyle is more unique.

It makes him look distinct because not many other Link depictions have it.

>awful

Why?

...

>those threads immediately after the reveal trailer when people were actually trying to determine if Link was a man or a woman in BotW

Nintendo has crossed the line in bishounen appeal this time

Shit, wrong image.

that one . OOT by far

Just imagine if old Nintendo's fresh talent and stiff 3rd gen competition had today's hardware to work with.

This Link is the most badass Link

...

TP link would be good if the shirt was a brighter green.

I really like that they added chainmail armor to his outfit

and that is? Looks like some rape doujin.

...

guy in the actual game looks totally different.

Skyward Sword Prequel Manga. The first Link

> Misspells 'princess'

Something tells me that you're not intentionally being retarded.

I bet the Green Tunic will be amiibo exclusive in BoTW

Even if it wasn't, I'm so buying that shit. It looks so cash.

Sexiest Link design.

No homo

I"ve never seen that. I don't care what games it works with I want it.

It works like any other Link amiibo for most games. It'll do something different in BotW.

At this point, between announced and released amiibo, Link has EIGHT figurines:
>Smash Link
>Smash Toon Link
>OoT Link
>WW Link
>8-bit Link
>Wolf Link
>BotW Link
>BotW Link on Horseback

That's enough to make a lengthy chain.

Anyone got that drawing of pink haired LttP Link in the Blue Mail and holding the Tempered Sword?

...

BotW Link also sounds like a girly faggot.

The Legend of Tumblr: Twink's Adventure

muh fuggin lion of hyrule

Okay but he can jump on command.

...

You fucking kidding me? He's wearing fucking tights. Link looks like a fag but wearing a fucking leotard? Nah, man. Nah.

>The only Link in a game that can actually talk.
>The only Link in a game that actually has a personality.
>The Link that's has gone through the toughest trials.

Not canon

Nice buzzwords

Not him. Centre partings make you look very silly. As a hairstyle, it's very much of it's time.

In-game TP link has mongoloid gorilla arms that go down way too far and a baby face

>In-game TP link has mongoloid gorilla arms that go down way too far
well how else is he going to pick up that humongous goron with a literal ton of armor?

When I was a kid, I used to think that it wasn't tights that he wears but that the time-travel fucked up his limbs and that they were drained of life. I always thought it looked cool how he had "pale, dead skin" but later I found out that he actually wears tights. I still think it looks cool though.

>noone's posted best link yet

What a bunch of fucking faggots

...

>filename
Ahhhhhhhh

N64 Link. The two are similar so I'm counting them as one design. Classic and aesthetically appealing without looking fuccboi twink or animu.

WW comes in second because I like his facial expressions.

Why is link's hat so long? What is it's purpose?

Yeah. He manages to be pretty while still retaining some masculinity. Current Link looks like a feminine bitchboi.

It's explained in the Minish Cap.

Look at that manly motherfucker. It went all downhill from there, sadly.

Not really. That hat just happened to be alive.

So Fairies can hide in it

Minish Cap is the first game chronologically though. The long hat stuck because it was just part of the ensemble.

Purple tunic best tunic.

no that's Skyward now. origin of hat has been snuffed

Came here to post this
Center parting hair was a 90's style
I mean hell, it's straight up a backstreet boy cut

In retrospect, I'm pretty sure I was subconsciously attracted to him when I played this game in elementary school

>Minish Cap is the first game chronologically though

Skyward Sword would like to have a word with you

WW for me, for not much else other than you can play the game in your pj's.

The 90's are still alive in some countries.

In most cases, I would agree. But I think Oot made it balanced. It just looks like his regular hair-do. Nowadays they go overboard with the swishy bangs, probably in an attempt to appeal to gamer grill types who like feminine teenagers.

Like in Portland.

I honestly can't get over it. nintendo never knows when to draw the line

>The only link that's a meme

Disqualified

Came here to post this. Best by far

although we did say the same thing about wind waker link at first so who knows

When will Nintendo finally give us what we want?

Does he count?

Hopefully never, because that Warcraft style looks fucking retarded.

The ideal Link would be him with pants and slight change of hairstyle.

BoTW link looks great. He looked way too feminine in the reveal trailer, but looks good in all the recent gameplay.

I really would like to have a Zelda game that focuses a bit more on him.

>smoking
fuck sake

>Capcom spin-off
>relevant or canon
lol

Agreed

jesus no never

I think the Link design in Mario Kart 8 is pretty good, he sorta looks like a blend of all the 3D Links, except Toon Link.

Perfect Link list:
>OoT ingame face proportions
>TP clothes
>ALttP hairstyle
>WW color pallette

this timeline is so ridiculous. was never really needed anyway

>WW color pallette

Fuck no, his neon green sleeves can fuck off.

He look like a blend of all adult Links that was put inside WW world.

>spin-off

Come on user, MC might be shit, but Nintendo released the official timeline like 5 years ago.

I don't want this.

Why did they give him such an undersized kart? He's not even in one of the bigger kart sizes and yet his legs clearly don't fit.

They clearly tried to piece together all the games but couldn't after the whole drowning Hyrule thing. So they came up with the timeline split thing.

He looks like a moron in MK8. I cringe every time he drives near me.

twilight princess in general has by far the best art style imo, especially with the HD remake.

That is just a cart with his symbol on it. His actual vehicle is a bike.

yea I just didn't feel like the games needed an official chronological connection ya know. I always thought it was cool just having them on their own and connecting them as you'd like, cause they very clearly weren't making them that way in the first place

The child and adult timeline make sense. 2 were clearly created at the end of OoT. It's the defeat timeline that makes no sense.

>OoT ingame face proportions
"no"

I don't know if the OOT link is the best design. But it is a classic and the standard to which all other links are held. [at least for me]

Calm down anons, it was a joke. Although I wouldn't mind a more mature or even jaded Link if done right. Kinda like the Hero's Shade in TPP, personality wise. Not sure how to do the design though.

The LttP art that was posted earlier in the thread is jaded looking enough imo. Would rather they go in that direction.

Not that user, but they connected the early games. This timeline is a clusterfuck, but to say they never tried to connect the games is not true. And that connection came from Miyamoto himself, clearly a different person in those years.

>That is just a cart with his symbol on it. His actual vehicle is a bike.
I'm referring to his designated kart size. characters have different sizes for the same vehicle. Link gets something like medium size and its clown car tier for him.
