User blog comment:Drayco90/Link vs. Ezio Auditore/@comment-3189283-20110720060005

Well lets see

Close range: The master sword on it's own is could win this matchup as it is very powerful and has magical qualities. Adding a shield makes it the perfect defence, attack combo. Edge Link

Mid range: The hookshot and Slingshot are not lethal. The hammer is so it gets the edge. Edge Ezio

Long range: The bow is far better than the crossbow as it has a greater rate of fire. Couple that with link's insane archery skills and you have another great combo. Edge Link

Special weapon: As good as the hidden blades are once they have been revealed they play right into link's master sword and sield combo. The Bomb will utterly destory ezio if he gets stuck in its blast radius. Edge Link

X factor: Eagle vision and Stealth abilites win here. The Triniforce of courage would only make link brave nothing else. Edge Ezio

Overall winner link. Ezio might be able to sneak up on link but if he does not kill him there and then link would easily beat him in head on combat. If ezio tries to run Link's archery skills would take him down. Link is good at all ranges and fights monsters, spirits and Magicians all the time where as most of ezio's victims were unserspecting, mostly unarmed people. Link wins this with about 600 kills to ezio' 400.
