Kirby (Kirby) Come on. Kirby has every power Mario has with his inhaling abilities plus his current weapons and abilities. This is a no brainer.

not voted what in the

Hero = The Hero of Time (The Legend Of Zelda - Ocarina Of Time)
Villian = actually idk

new to the thing so don't hate me, whats the number next to our profile picture?

Luke Skywalker Alright, alright, hear me out.
I love The Legend of Zelda. I've played over half of the games and I'm currently enjoying another one.
But as much as I love it, this is a bit too much for Link.
Let's be specific. Which Link are we talking here? You do know there are multiple Links, right?
If it's the Hero Of Time, then it's going to be fair game. The Hero of Time has the Fierce Deity mask, a mask that basically gives him the powers of a dark god. It would easily rival Luke's power and would make it fair game, so as close as the match would be, I'd give it to Link.
If it's the Hero of the Wild, though, not as easy to decide. The Hero of the Wild has the Bow of Light, one of the most overpowered items in the zelda series. Other than that, though, there's not much that can rival the speed and precision of Luke. Sure, there's the Master Sword, but Link would have to get to Luke first. Plus, even if you think he could just use his sword beams, it only works at full health, and I'm sure he wouldn't be at full health with Luke choking him to death.
Other than the Hero of Legend and the 2 I listed above, I believe it's a no contest that the other Links would fall. No matter what, though, Link and Luke are two very, very tough competitors that can rival one another pretty damn well. In the end, I'm gonna have to go with Luke here.

Team Link (Zelda) samus, kirby, link, and mario together is a no brainer ¯_(ツ)_/¯

Samus (Metroid) what type of contest is this? in what way does master chief stand a chance against samus, who's been beaten half to death most of the time, has survived getting infected with a deadly virus and then with the cure been able to absorb said virus and using it to HEAL her, and has even has survived the most extreme temperature conditions and conditions in general? samus' suit reigns supreme no contest, as she can update it to function with her needs and conditions of where she is, as well as being able to regain lost abilities and gain new ones as well. this is too easy and there's no reason why master chief has any say in that.

Link (Zelda) here's the thing - it will always depend on which link we're talking about here. mario could easily beat a link like the hero of spirits, but the hero of time or the hero of legend can beat mario pretty easily with their item arsenal. the hero of time has the fierce deity mask, which can give him the powers of a dark god, something in no way mario can compete with. but, to be fair, if link gets items, so does mario, so mario could have the invisibility star, but that also only lasts like 10 seconds so.
ok how about this, no overpowered items. in this category i'd personally put mario against the hero of legend as the hero of legend has the most items and can compare to mario's item arsenal pretty well. i'd think it'd be very close, but the hero of legend would win as if mario tries to just do a jump, link could easily block it with the cane of somaria. i guess the only trouble link would have is mario's power-ups don't have a limited supply, as link's bow can run out eventually and force him to find more arrows.
let's put mario vs the hero of the wild. that would be interesting, and we'll be including every item literally ever except for anything that makes them permanently invincible (super stars are fine, i just mean like the invincibility leaf) so first off, in terms of strength, mostly mario has the advantage here. mario can lift castles as seen in super mario world when he defeats larry, mario has been able to alter GRAVITY to his advantage as seen in super mario galaxy, and mario can outrun bullets and run up walls with his speed. the hero of the wild mostly has a disadvantage in this area, as there are no super strength items in botw, only items that make his attack go up (also there probably are, but its like 3 in the morning so im too lazy to check) so link loses here. now experience, however, link crushes mario here. link fought in the great calamity (and legibly lost dont hate me) and protected the princess zelda until he was wounded by her on accident and technically never fell in battle, and eventually came back 100 years later, still in prime, not looking, feeling, or acting old in the slightest and was able to defeat ganon and eventually dark beast ganon, a demon made entirely of hatred. mario has been fighting too, but the only times hes actually ever really hurt the enemy hands-on is like super mario galaxy and a couple other titles, as most of the time mario uses his environment and anything around him to his advantage (the infamous bridge switch, throwing mecha-koopas in mario world, etc.) so in terms of fighting experience, link takes the cake here.
honestly, and it's pretty boring but it's true, it always depends on where they fight, how much prep time they have, what items are available, and obviously which link mario fights. this is pretty tough, though, so don't get too worked up over what i said as my opinion doesn't matter.
