Been meaning to do this for a while, and I just noticed they share similar tiers so let's see how things go. Thriller Bark Zoro and Four Swords Anniversary Link is being used.



Link: 1 (IbukiDoujisGiantTail)

Zoro: 1 (Nonynho)

Inconclusive:

Link has an 8x AP and durability advantage. He should be able to one shot

Wouldn't Haki help Zoro realize the stat disadvantage and work around that?

Zoro is 8x weaker than Link with Haki. Maybe he can close the gap with Conqueror's Infusion, Max Armament, or King of Hell, but that's something he needs to strain himself in order to do. Link is casually his value.
 
Hmm, would it be fairer if I used Four Sword or Minish Cap Link against Thriller Bark Zoro? Those Links cap at around 30 gigatons so at best they're getting a 4X stat advantage against Base Zoro
 
I can switch it to their 6-C states to make the debate more interesting, Link at best has a 4X strength advantage if I use Minish cap or 4 Swords.
 
This would be easier to evaluate if Link's profile had actual values attached to his stats; also doesn't help the verse page doesn't have a scaling section.
 
It's likely a typo, his page has him directly scaled to Vaati, and his feat gets to 32 Gigatons. The Island level+ stems from a Ganondorf he doesn't fight to my knowledge.
 
Well, Link has a 3.4x AP advantage over Zoro's base attacks and a 1.7x advantage over Zoro's Strongest Attacks.

Zoro seems to have a speed advantage, even more so with Iai Attacks.

Zoro is competely outclassed in LS, Class E>>Class T.

Zoro does have Durability Negation via BOAT to help mitigate the difference in power.

I'll be honest, I don't see how Zoro is going to beat a superior opponent who can duplicate himself. With the massive LS difference, I can see two Links holding Zoro down while the others attack away at him. Zoro is faster but not enough to the point of him being grabbed is lower than the chances of him beating 4 opponents nearly twice as strong as he is. Although, Zoro does have AD to counteract the difference in power.

I'm voting for Link for now.
 
Yeah this version of Link does not even remotely scale to the giants no idea why he's Class E (Even more funny considering the giants are Class Z lol), thinks it a hold over when we scaled him to the full Triforce for no reason.

Honestly almost every Link profile is badly outdated in a lot of ways.
 
Zoro has Observation Haki in this state doesn't he? Even assuming he's out LS'd by the 4 Swords Link, shouldn't the speed advantage and precognition just help him avoid any potential sneak attacks from them?

Kenbunshoku Haki Sound of Things + dodges + ranged attacks
Link's definetely not more skilled than Zoro

corrected version:
Zoro is faster, and should not be enough [...], but due to him being a very good user of Kenbunshoku Haki Sound of Things, his speed advantage becomes very dangerous, specially when combined with his Busoshoku Haki haxes

Voting Zoro FRA

Just looked through Pre-timeskip's page and yeah he doesn't have Observation Haki, but he has other Precognition type abilities he can use in the fight.
 
Zoro's def got a decent hurdle to get across, it's a 4v1 where they're all a little over 3 times stronger than him. He's got better ranged attacks and while sound of things ain't as good as observation haki it's still gonna help out esspecially given he's nearly twice as fast as the Links.
 
Is this Link itemless? are we giving him an item or only swords cuz Magnet Glove should just kinda mog Zoro lol

Either way Link FRA, Zoro's speed advantage would only really come into play with his Iai attacks, outside of that he's only about 2x faster against 4 opponents with a 3x AP advantage. An understated advantage of Link here I don't see mentioned is that the 4 Links are perfectly coordinated, so compared to a standard team, the 4 Links can set themselves up better.

The way I see it:
Zoro's advantages: Slight 2x speed advantage (Could blitz with Iai attacks), should be better skilled, has Duraneg via BOAT

Links advantage: 3x AP advantage, 4 v 1, isn't really that far behind Zoro in terms of skill, Four Swords means that the team is far better coordinated compared to a standard team, certain weapons (mainly magnet glove) could just insta gg ez Zoro, can match Zoro at range especially when all 4 Links can individually shoot beams.

Link gets my vote, following Zoro's own logic, 4 swords are better than 3
 
Your votes are based on something that got removed from the page, Link doesn't have the LS advantage anymore so pinning Zoro down isn't happening.
