Talk:CD-I Mario vs CD-I Link/@comment-24530269-20171028121431

I actually kinda changed my mind about the fight. Here's why:

Mario also cleared seven hotels, ran around the entire country and beat eight bosses... all in one go. In my opinion Mario takes this now.
 * Superior Speed: Mario is, believe it or not, faster. He can casually dodge point-blank Banzai Bills which are basically the speed of cannon fire, outrun explosions and escape a collapsing castle.
 * Counter to Link's Magic: Link uses magic, right? Well, Mario actually has a spray from Ludwig's hotel that negates and blocks magic. This effectively means Mario can counter most of Link's arsenal.
 * Durability: Mario tanked and escaped a cave clearing explosion. The best Link can survive is a bomb. Mario also barely suffered any damage after being sucked through a pipe, slammed into its sides and being launched onto the floor.
 * Counter-Arsenal: Provided the fight takes place in the Mushroom Kingdom, Mario can use stuff like the giant fan, the vine to dodge Link's attacks, etc...
