To be able to attack Ghirahim during this phase, Link must swing his sword in the opposite direction where the Demon Lord's hand is currently positioned. Holding the Goddess Sword to the right to lead Ghirahim's hand in that same direction then quickly swinging from the left will guarantee a hit if done correctly. | To be able to attack Ghirahim during this phase, Link must swing his sword in the opposite direction where the Demon Lord's hand is currently positioned.

After sustaining enough damage, Ghirahim will draw a saber-like sword of his own. Throughout the fight, he can vanish at will and transport to another part of the room. He can also summon several red, glowing diamond-like blades, which he can throw at Link to damage him; these can be deflected if hit with the sword in the same direction that they are traveling, or by simply using a Shield Bash. While Ghirahim is wielding his sword, he will sometimes briefly stop, lower himself, and charge at Link, unleashing a powerful strike at him. A few well timed sword strikes can stop the charge and deal damage. Alternatively, Link could use a [[Hidden Skill#Shield Attack|Shield Bash]] to throw Ghirahim off-balance, giving the young hero a chance to strike. Another attack consists of transporting behind Link and holding his saber in a specific direction. Link must quickly strike Ghirahim in that same direction before the Demon Lord attacks him. Once Ghirahim has been hit enough times, he will promptly retreat as he can no longer sense Zelda's presence. | After sustaining enough damage, Ghirahim will draw a saber-like sword of his own.

Ghirahim appears in {{HW}} as an antagonist and also as a playable Warrior. His weapon is the Demon Blade, the sword he uses in ''Skyward Sword''. His style is very fast, relying on teleportation tricks and odd moves that take his opponent off guard. He is capable of creating daggers from thin air to use as projectiles, conjuring a ceiling to slam into enemies with his mind, and transforming into his true form.

His style is very fast, relying on teleportation tricks and odd moves that take his opponent off guard. He is capable of creating daggers from thin air to use as projectiles, conjuring a ceiling to slam into enemies with his mind, and transforming into his true form. He has a unique mechanic where he can tie his opponent to a red string, opening up new, more powerful combos. While fast and strong, a flaw of Ghirahim is that he is so narcissistic that he poses after many of his moves, leaving him open to retaliation. However, this flaw can be somewhat mitigated by the fact that Ghirahim is capable of simply dodging in order to cancel several of his poses, allowing him to continue fighting. | ||
In [[Legend Mode]], Ghirahim first appears in and serves as a mini-boss in the Scenario [[Skyloft (Hyrule Warriors)|Land of the Sky]] and as a boss in [[Sealed Grounds (Hyrule Warriors)|Sealed Ambition]]. He forms an alliance with [[Cia]]'s subordinate [[Volga]] and they plan an attack on Skyloft, but Ghirahim is later forced to retreat to the Sealed Grounds to personally protect the [[Gate of Souls]]. After summoning the [[Imprisoned]] to attack Link and his allies, Ghirahim is defeated in battle and sealed within the Gate of Souls. However, he and [[Zant]] are later summoned by [[Ganon]]dorf to aid him in his quest to obtain the [[Triforce]], following the defeat of Cia. They help him to take over the desert stronghold in [[Gerudo Desert (Hyrule Warriors)|Ganondorf's Return]], and follow him to take the Triforce pieces in [[Valley of Seers|March of the Demon King]] and [[Hyrule Field (Hyrule Warriors)|Battle of the Triforce]]. In [[Gerudo Desert (Hyrule Warriors)|Enduring Resolve]], Ghirahim and Zant are left in charge of commanding [[Forces#Ganondorf's Forces|Ganondorf's Forces]] in Gerudo Desert, but they are defeated once again by the [[Forces#Hyrulean Forces|Hyrulean Forces]]. | In [[Legend Mode]], Ghirahim first appears in and serves as a mini-boss in the Scenario [[Skyloft (Hyrule Warriors)|Land of the Sky]] and as a boss in [[Sealed Grounds (Hyrule Warriors)|Sealed Ambition]].
