Breath of the Wild player aims to find a new way to beat a Guardian every day
This Breath of the Wild player is teaching a bunch of fun new ways to kill Guardians every day.
Breath of the Wild's Guardians are probably the most obnoxious enemies in the game. It's not that they're particularly hard - once you get the hang of the shield parry, they're a breeze to kill - it's just that they can't always be ignored, forcing you to stop what you're doing, equip a disposable shield, and dispatch them just so you can carry on with whatever you were doing. And heaven forbid you mess up the timing and get hit by their laser beam, which knocks you down and does a heck of a lot of damage for such a common enemy.

When the stasis effect ends, the crate ploughs into an unsuspecting Guardian at such a velocity that its legs go all wonky and stretchy. A few seconds later you can see the Guardian hurling through the air toward infinity.
