Ganon vs Radahn who would win?
- Thread starter refusi0n1

Yeah that may be valid, but my mom says I can
It is written, "only Link can defeat Ganon"
He also uses gravity magic to keep himself propped up on his tiny horse because he's so attached to horsey even as they're both rotting and becoming deformed 😭
peeps calling him General Chadan while the MF there getting killed by a naked hack with a club...
Someone who has never known defeat couldn't even defeat Radahn and had to get carried back up north by one of her knights. It was a standstill.
Radahn wins.
Radahn wins.
I think Ganon's supposed to be canonically more powerful, at least in some ways (vulnerable only to specific weaponry, macguffin-fueled, immortal-adjacent) but since these are Zelda games, his battles are mostly quite simple and easy. As far as in-game fights the Radahn one though is obviously magnitudes more threatening than any attempt Ganon has ever put up. Makes me imagine an ambitious Ocarina of Time remake with a similar final Ganon fight.
botw lol
This tidbit about him is the best, wasn't necessary but I absolutely love it
I don't know anything about Elden Ring, but for reference, the Triforce seems to be truly omnipotent. It seems to be able to grant any wish, period. Anything from killing gods to creating more Triforces is fair game.
Radahn is also basically zombified when you fight him so he's already massively weakened as a result of having lost his mind forever ago. So it makes sense.
That and her power clearly left him a mindless zombie incapable of doing anything but consuming and fighting, she still has her faculties and skills intact.
Any info how he got nerfed? Before the patch I nearly got him after 20 tries, he died 1 second after I died. One day later the patch got released and I leveled up some, then I beat him first try.
OP
OP
Radahn is a shell of his former self and is still holding back stars and tough as hell and you are still supposed to fight him with NPC summons. Imagine him before the rot.
Lore-wise Ganon should be stronger, even if Radahn is harder than any Ganon fight in the Zelda series.
Also this.
I think Ganon wins, by virtue of his story being simpler and less detailed.
Ganon *cannot* be defeated except by the Hero with the Master Sword.
Meanwhile I threw three or four swordsmen and a piece of possessed pottery at Radahn and then breathed garlic breath on him and he caved like Gollum.

That feeling when you realize that not one but TWO of Elden Ring's bosses were designed to look like different incarnations of Ganon
OG Ganon:

Ocarina of Time Ganon:
Radahn:
I'd love a FromSoft Metroid game, personally. Hell, the series already has some stuff in common with their games. An isolated, lonesome setting with few NPCs, and a ton of hostility. Large, expansive levels with various shortcuts, connected by elevators. Poison swamps.
Just imagine Samus exploring a FromSoft-designed planet, with their environmental, enemy, and boss designs. Kinda makes me sad this will never manifest.
If Radahn can truly hold back stars that's pretty impressive and probably stronger than Ganon.
Him being a mindless zombie though is a oretty huge boon in Ganon's favor though. His whole thing is being a warlock, including mind manipulation and puppetry. It'd probably be easy for him to just take over Radahn's mind.

I mean Malenia had to resort to essentially nuking all of Caelid with Scarlet Rot just to end the fight in a draw. Radahn was that strong pre Scarlet Rot.
I feel like such a big man--getting him pre-nerf.
Granted I cheesed him like a coward, but still. =P
Do we have anyone to corroborate that claim? I think she just likes to claim it
I mean, I assume people, in general, summon a legion to fight Radahn
Melania pretty much poisoned the whole region in hope to not die after getting impaled by him so although it's considered a draw and the poison later ate his brain, Rhadan was strong as fuck. That said depend on which Ganon, I don't think Rhadan could destroy the world while some form of Ganon could
