Can You Beat Tears of the Kingdom As a Yiga?

Glory to Master Kohga.

Bro killed his own boss and proceeds to say “glory to master kohga”

The idea that a Yiga Footsoldier could be so devoted to the cause that he not only surpasses his own master, but the literal Dark Lord that they worship, meanwhile still praising the very Master he defeated is hilarious and kind of on brand for the "task failed successfully" grindset of the Clan

I love totk's Yiga. Sure, they want to kill Link, but almost every one you talk to in the depths just want to do science and build monster trucks 😂

You can actually put off the yiga mask IN FRONT of the blademaster guy and he just goes like "huh you seem familiar... meh anyway you should put that back on. Glory to Master Kohga" LMAO

Someone said something that made sense about why Kohga can recognize Link even though he's in Yiga armor: Kohga has been in the Yiga clan for at least 120 years or something, and is very adored by his goons. And he's shown to take care of them in return, so it'd make sense that he knows every member of the Yiga clan, hence how he could recognize Link even in Yiga set. Also blond hair

Yiga Link pulling the master sword actually makes a lot of sense considering Yiga Clan Members can steal the Master Sword in BOTW if you bait and lead one of the big guys to it

2:03 due to the fact they died from the burning from the fire fruit, they didn’t drop their weapons because they disappeared right after their burning animation

10/10 Master Kohga is one of the best characters in AOC, BOTW and TOTK.

best thing about the yiga armour is that you can make all the sheikah npcs just go from "hi, o great hero and knight to princess zelda" to "ew get the frickety FRRRRRRIIIIICK away from me"

Fun fact about the Eightfold Longblades, the Wind Projectile they shoot can carry some fused item effects, the most obvious being elemental attachments turning your wind blades into Fire/Ice/Lightning blades. This actually ends up having a pretty powerful interaction with Muddle Buds. If you attach one to your Longblade, the Wind Projectiles will actually Confuse enemies. The best part? As long as you don't hit the enemy with with blade and only the projectile, it doesn't consume the Muddle Bud! The Pristine Eightfold Longblade ends up becoming an extremely powerful tool in your arsenal if you abuse elemental and muddle fusions. Pair that up with it's unique Iai Slash charge attack that drastically extends the AoE of the Wind Projectile and you can do insane things like Burn/Freeze/Shock or even Muddle entire groups of enemies in a single slash!

I wound up exploring the Great Plateau before I went to Kakariko village. I fought the Yiga clan on the plateau and got the Yiga Mask which I was wearing when I arrived in Kakariko. There was a bunch of bonus dialogue! “why would you wear such a thing, Link?”. Such a nice touch!

For pristine weapons, break the weapons then find the ghosts in the depths, they’ll have the pristine versions of the weapons you break. Use the earthquake move to save durability on weapons! (Unequip your weapons to nothing and charge attack). As for the final kohga fight, use fire then hit him 2 times and he flies into the wall for big damage

Poor Yiga, they didn't realize Link was the newest member when he came to get the rest of his clothes.

As a Yiga Clan member, I can confirm this man has fooled us with his disguise. Glory to Master Kohga.

I had a thought. So in BOTW, when you beat khoga he falls in to the depths and that became a gimmick of the new game. In TOTK when you beat Khoga he is sent in to the sky/possibly space. So if the next game has some sort of link in space gameplay I’m calling it now. Lol

I love the Yiga storyline [and anything Yiga related] so this video made my day tbh

Gotta love how link was so annoyed how incompetent the yiga are at their job that he upstages them, AS them, to prove how dumb they are

Im pretty sure when you equip the master sword the yiga think you’ve killed link when you talk to the one that gives you the challenges

"i know all your moves, you're easy" proceeds to die 5 times
