'''The Result:''' Astor's horrifically low treatment of the Yiga Clan, with Sooga's fate left ambiguous, ends up causing Master Kohga and the Yiga Clan to switch their allegiance to the Hyrulean Forces, which gave Ganon's enemies more allies and costing it a good portion of its army.\\

'''You'd Expect:''' Astor to take several members to an isolated spot where Master Kohga and Sooga won't see him sacrifice their Yiga soldiers to revive the Blights and if they end up seeing the dead bodies without actually seeing what he did, Astor would then manipulate them by pin the blame on the Hyrulean Forces, so that they would be driven by blind revenge without costing Calamity Ganon its allies.\\

'''Instead:''' They stick to tradition and keep enforcing the rule, not even allowing Hyrule's champion in. So the only way to keep the town from disappearing is for Gerudos to leave the place to find Hylian mates to procreate with, then come back later with their children alone, as their fathers aren't allowed in.

** Master Kohga and the Yiga Clan plan to turn the Gerudo against Link, Princess Zelda, and Impa, so Kohga disguises himself as their chieftain, Urbosa (who was away at the time) and orders them to attack the trio and any fighter the player has in their selected team. While the concept isn't bad by itself, there are some flaws.\\
'''You'd expect:''' Master Kohga to send his spies to do some research to get a better understanding of the relationship between Zelda and Urbosa and the latter's mannerisms to hide his disguise better, and better yet, capture Urbosa and have her locked in their hideout to prevent her from interfering with his plans on assassinating the princess.\\
'''Instead:''' He never did any of all this, so his chances of success were significantly much lower.\\
'''The Result:''' The Gerudo Captains were confused by "Urbosa's" behavior and believe there is something off about their chief and Urbosa ends up returning unscathed and electrifies him before he can attack Zelda and her allies.

** Astor has his fair share of making unwise decisions that make things worse for Calamity Ganon; in one of them, Calamity Ganon's return is set on Zelda's 17th birthday which was foretold. Princess Zelda would already be away at Mt. Lanayru that day to train for her sacred power which was still dormant.\\
