Any Legend of Zelda player knows that the Cuccos are the scourge of Hyrule. If you mess with them like you do other chickens in video games, then you'll get what's coming to you, as these clucking beasts don't take anything lying down. However, in a shocking turn of events, the latest Zelda games allow you to use their aggression to your advantage.

The phenomenal Breath of the Wild and Tears of the Kingdom take open-world gameplay to the next level, as they let you approach the game however you see fit. As such, there's an endless array of creative combat methods for taking down enemies, and this has to be one of the funniest.

If you get your hands on a Cucco, take it with you to meet some enemies, and let those enemies get a hit in on the little creature, then all hell will break loose. A collection of Cuccos will flock to defend their brethren and can deliver a surprising amount of damage.

This trick is effective against all sorts of enemies, ranging from Bokoblins all the way up to Hinoxes. Hell, some players even managed to beat Calamity Ganon with them.

It was about time these chickens and Link joined forces!
