Ghirahim slowly advances towards Link as the fight begins. If the [[Goddess Sword|sword]] is not drawn, Ghirahim will slap Link for one [[Heart Container|heart]] of damage. This can be blocked with a Shield Bash, but it is better to have the sword drawn before Ghirahim gets close enough. | |||
Ghirahim will holds his fingers up with a purple aura, and will try to catch the sword between his fingers as it is swung. If Link does not quickly pull the sword free, Ghirahim takes it away and will use it against Link. To get the sword back, block one of his strikes with a shield bash and it will fly out of Ghirahim's hands so that Link can retrieve it. Ghirahim may also throw the sword at Link after a few strikes. Dodge it, and then run over to it and pick it up before he does. | |||
The key to harming him is to quickly turn where the sword is and slash at him. Hold the sword on the right and Ghirahim will block in that direction. Then quickly deliver a sword slash from left to right using your Wiimote and Link will hit him almost every time. If Ghirahim does catch the sword, quickly waggle your Wiimote to break free. Continue hitting in this fashion until he changes up his attacks. | |||

Instead of heedlessly advancing toward Link he tries to keep his distance, often backing away, even jumping back to avoid Link's attacks. | ||

He conjures throwing knives arranged in a line and launches them at Link. A well-timed sword slash at the correct angle as well as a shield bash reflects the knives back at Ghirahim. Unfortunately, Ghirahim blocks these and sustains no damage. Simply raising the shield or dodging can protect Link from harm. | ||

He also attacks by dashing at | He also attacks by dashing at Link and sweeping with his sword, signaled by crouching for a moment with his sword at his side. Note which side he is holding his sword, as this tells which side he will attack from. If he is holding it to his right, he will attack Link from Link's left, and vice-versa. This is especially important in parrying and countering this attack. A dodge only succeeds if Link side-hops away from the direction of attack; a backflip will work as well. Sword slashes must be directed toward him in order to be effective (''i.e.'' if he dashes to Link's right, swing to the right). A [[Spin Attack]], however, should work from either side if timed well. After his attack misses or is halted, you get a chance for a counter-attack. | ||
Blocking is another great option for dealing with Ghirahim's charge attack. Simply blocking with | Blocking is another great option for dealing with Ghirahim's charge attack. Simply blocking with a shield protects Link from damage, though Ghirahim will be ready to dodge any attempted counter-attack. A shield bash knocks him off balance, leaving enough time for several sword hits. | ||

If Link stands there too long Ghirahim will attack him. If Link hastily strike without regard to his sword, he may block the attack and immediately counter it. When he disappears, be prepared to look for the position of his sword, and make sure Link attacks his unguarded side. | ||
