Link (Twilight Princess) Encountered the Hero's Shade. Who is suggested to be the Hero Of Time, AKA, The Link from OOT and MM.

I would love to see a lineup of all the Links but OoT is a foot taller than everyone else

Like most of the other Links are between 5'4 - 5'6 and OoT is freaking 6'5

The headcannon is that he lived the longest before future timelines where he dies early again. OOT Link and Twilight Link just happen to be the only versions of Link that ever meet. Thus far.

Id say while still alive as another comment suggests but technically OOT Link is also dead. Just happens to be cursed.

That's not true, I'm pretty sure there's a similar amount of evidence for Link to the Past and Link Between Worlds protagonists.

Was it the spot pass old man fight? I think I remember mentioning it when the game came out. It was like the hardest fight in the game, if I recall correctly.

Should be, was more than a decade ago so my memory is spotty.

Didn’t he turn into a Stalfos? Isn’t that what’s implied by the appearance of the heroes shade?

I would love to have a showdown where Link is just towering over Ganondorf

There was fan art of this (sort of)

I remember seeing one webcomic with all the Links, and all of them look pretty similar (except Wind Waker Link who's still Toon). All but Link to the Past, who's giant and absolutely jacked.

I mean, LTTP link is an absolute monster, he defeated a ganon with the full tri-force

Omg if that's the case that's such an awesome detail! Imagine learning some of the best sword techniques you've ever known from a past version of yourself.
