Paper Mario trilogy food items ranked by how likely you would be to want to try and eat them or something. Probably better as a general tierlist and not like a proper ranking though
It feels rather strange to see the final boss at the bottom of this ranking. Usually in rankings of boss battles in Mario games, especially the RPGs, the final boss is usually at top, or at the very least high up on the list. But in the case of Paper Mario: Sticker Star, the final boss fight is at the very bottom. It may feel strange, but there's still reasons why such placement is well-deserved.
I was so stumped on the final Bowser back in day, like imagine the pain of going through the fight blind and making it through the first part and finding out you need the tape / tack to close the doors, so you back to town and get it only to make it to the next round and find out you need scissors to defeat the Womp, but when you return to the battle you won't even realize that you were also needing the icecream to freeze the fireballs, and the tail to deflect the Chomp. There are so many requirements to beating him and the game doesn't even mention any of them, they expect trial and error to really be the way to beat the final boss. But it just becomes very monotonous and annoying.
I played this game and had ABSOLUTELY NO IDEA about the fan being needed for big boo. I just used a Infinijump and one-rounded him. Infinijumps are so gamebreaking they bypass the requirement for this literal boss
32:56 you actually don’t! An old UA-camr by the name of LuckySevenDX did a playthrough of sticker star in the mid 2010s and he showcased two ways to counter the blooper poison. 1. A poison mushroom overrides the effect since Mario (and enemies) can only have one status effect active at once 2. A VERY well timed guard can completely negate the poison. Watch the rhythm of the blooper’s tentacles to know when to guard
My newly updated ranking: 14. Bowser (Using things is going to be a huge running theme with this list isn’t it? How about multiple? Even then the fight doesn’t have much of an atmosphere outside of the final phase.) 13. Tower Power Pokey (This is the boss that opened the floodgates as to how atrocious the boss lineup would be. I guess the baseball field would be indication but it’s not enough.) 12. Kamek 3 (Not last place anymore!!! But the only reason why that is is because if you get all three slots on the Battle Spinner to match, you’ve already won as you use a big flip-flop to do exact damage.) 11. Kamek 2 (I guess I’m not going anywhere until I talk about why the Kamek fights are awful. Kamek turns your stickers into flip-flops which means you can attack him if he decides to go in midair. On top of that, you could be wasting valuable stickers. There. Moving on.) 10. Big Boo (Turns invisible in the light. This means you need to put out the fire with yet another thing usage. Oh boy. Also can I just say that the vacuum not being a boss killer for this fight was a huge missed opportunity. Would make a nice reference.) 9. Big Cheep Cheep (Fun fact. This is the only boss that outright requires a thing. Granted other bosses have weaknesses that trivialize them but they weren’t outright required. Anyway use the fish hook. What’s next?) 8. Big Scuttlebug (I don’t remember much of this boss tbh. Yeah it’s that forgettable. As far as I remember, Jumps don’t work well, and you don’t have your hammer either. Idk you fill in the blanks.) 7. Megasparkle Goomba (The easiest to take down without the weakness. Still takes 40 minutes and a lot of the album. Yeah not much here…) 6. Kamek 1 (The best Kamek fight because it doesn’t have the annoying flip-flop gimmick. Still not great.) 5. Big Buzzy Beetle (This is basically a pay to win boss because it gets back up in a single turn. Have fun.) 4. Bowser Jr. (A trickster in all three fights, but still not that exciting. You need Tails for his second and third fights and the first fight an omen for things to come.) 3. Mizzter Blizzard (Finally a good boss. The weaknesses are obvious and the monstrous size make for a memorable spar.) 2. Gooper Blooper (You know his theme, you love his theme. The fight itself isn’t very good since it uses the sponge but that jam.) 1. Petey Piranha (The fact that this is number one shows exactly why the battle system doesn’t work. His weakness is related to him, and he spams you with jump stickers. Imagine if that was every other boss and you’d have a better boss lineup.)
Don't you think that if this game teaches us that we NEED almost always to use Thing stickers, some battles would be way better on everyone's boss tier list?
A very odd fact I know about the big boo is that you can actually block its consumption attack. If you time your block at the same time as the first hit, you'll also block the rapid subsequent hits automatically, which is a blessing for those who really like the block sound.
Fun facts: The faucet can be used on the Big Boo fight. You can use a jump sticker on the big buzzy nettle to flip it over You can use the sponge to survive the big cheep cheep’s explosion And I’m pretty sure you can use the scissors on the Megasparkle Goomba.
6:49 Actually, there is. Besides the Wind Things(those being the Bellows, Paper Fan and Fan, the 1st 2 locked behind Secret Doors), you can use the Flood Things to flood the screen and blow out the candles with water. Remember the Faucet, that you got in 1-3? Yeah, you can use that to blow out the candles and do 30 damage to the Big Boo. The game is also nice enough to give you the Watering Can in this very level, you just need to go to the Flower Room where there's a Boo hidden, and whack 3 times with your Hammer to make it fall down. You can also use the Teapot, which does a whopping 55 damage, but that's all the way in 5-4, so, realistically, you wouldn't use it here. I'm pretty sure you can also use the Poison Shroom to poison the Big Boo, since the poison passes onto enemies(and bosses) that make physical contact with Mario.
I did the Boo Boss in a very creative way because I didn't know the fan strategy, I did it with the toxic mushrooms on the roulette xD because I thought he licked me and so he got as I expected poisoned
If I were to rank these bosses, I would put Gooper Blooper at the absolute bottom of this list. This boss is the moment I realize I am tempted to hate this game. Megasparkle Goomba is a test of what you've been taught up to that point. Tower Power Pokey is a lot more annoying. It's super challenging because you're not told the Bat thing will make the fight a lot easier, but you can beat it without the Bat thing. You don't need it. Now, you can't, and I cannot stress this enough, CANNOT beat Gooper Blooper without the Sponge thing, which is really easy to miss because it is covered in poison, and kind of just blends in with the background. If you do not have the Sponge thing, you will get poisoned, and will be lucky to ever hit the boss, in addition to losing HP every turn. The only way I can see someone beating Gooper Blooper without the Sponge thing is to use Leaf stickers to deflect the poison he spits at you. But here's the catch: the Sponge thing not only protects you from the poiaon, but also spits it back at the boss, which is its weakness. There is an answer to this fight, and it's to have the right sticker and use it when you're supposed to, because god forbid you use the Sponge thing too early and you may as well not have picked up the Sponge thing at all. This game creates a system that has not rules, yet still somehow manages to break them anyway. I don't hate the game overall, but I'm really tempted to at times, especially with how horrendous Gooper Blooper is.
Interesting list. I have a few things I'd like to mention: -I was kind of surprised that the final boss was at the bottom. I'm not going to deny that the gameplay sucks, but I think it has this sense of spectacle and dynamicness that no other boss in Sticker Star really has. I like the concept of moving through Bowser's castle as the fight progresses and this even connects with the gameplay since the battle changes up as you move through different areas in his castle. I definitely understand not liking it, since needing multiple thing cards does really suck, but the non-gameplay parts of this fight are solid, at least in my opinion. -I personally wouldn't have put the Big Cheep Cheep as high for a couple reasons. First, while the thing you need is pretty obvious if you've seen it, it's completely possible that you wouldn't have, considering that it's found within a secret door. Additionally, while the fight having a turn limit is a cool concept, I don't really like how the game doesn't communicate that to you. As such, the 99 damage explosion that eventually happens does come off as a kind of cheap death the first time around. -You mention for Gooper Blooper that the music is the only positive that people seem to have for it, but I'd like to mention that I also think the fight has a very good buildup. From the beginning of World 3, you see that the whole forest has been getting covered in poison. A bit later, when you visit the shop, you get a view of the shipwreck with the poison seeping out of it, revealing where it is that the poison is coming from. This happens again once you first visit the beach. Near the end of World 3, once one of the Wiggler segments tries to get a toad to sail a boat over there, you're told that another boat recently disappeared around that area, and as such, the toad doesn't want to sail over there because it would be too dangerous. This establishes that the source of the poison is a big threat. All these story events related to the boss make it a lot more memorable in my opinion. I think it's cool how Gooper Blooper ties into the happenings of the entire chapter, because no other boss really does that.
I have no rebuttal to all these points except the Gooper blooper one. It’s still just not something that makes the battle better. Maybe the build up but that’s really it. The battle itself is really only carried by the music and that’s it at least to most people and it was proven when people put in the premiere chat the music and nothing else
"needing multiple thing cards does really suck" I think you can not be overstating this enough. ESPECIALLY because the item that allows you to flee from unfleeable battles... does _not_ work. I remember the realization dawning on me that I would either have to let myself be slowly killed in this battle, or turn the game off. And I was _disgusted._
Hey shroob! Sorry for saying I hate your channel. I don't. I'm a massive fan! So heres a video idea! Ranking every single boss in paper mario the origami king. Minibosses,main bosses and paper macho fights! Ok can't wait for your next video!
i didnt like sticker star but i liked color splash i think you should give it a try yourself and see if its worth pushing through the terrible combat. for me it was (but at one point i got so frustrated by the combat i took a break from color splash and played origami king, a game with combat i actually enjoyed, from start to finish and then came back to it)
unrelated note, but you can use a spike helmet to prematurely detonate the cheep cheep. Deals a lot of damage, but it ain't outright death...depending on it's size, anyway.
Gooper Blooper and Tower Power Pokey have my heart for their themes, and Ice bowser statue, Petey Piranha, and TPP again have my heart for gameplay while this seems that TPP is my fave I love Goop’s theme way too much to rank him lower than no. 1
I am just gonna get this off my chest Even if Paper Mario does make a return to form an becomes more like 64 and TTYD I still want Bowser Jr to keep appearing in the Paper Mario games, he's my favorite Mario character and I still want to see him in these games.
Its exactly how I rememeber it or worse. the reason I say this is that the complaints I had stuck when I sometimes thought before if they really were that bad.
Alright my list, also my non-descriptive Color Splash level ranking is commented under one of my comments. You missed a few: Big Chain Chomp Big Cheep Chomp (Boo Night Fever) Maybe this one, I’ll rank it anyway 19: Supreme Sparkling King: I love this game, but this is the worst final level/boss combo ever. To enjoy this game you must have patience. Most people that I know that hate this game lost it. I didn’t until this final level and specifically this fight, because I beat it without a guide. 97 tries I counted. Only pro is that the first phase has some great music. Need I say more? Yes I do, this fight is worse than the STEAK 18: Big Chain Chomp: Requiring a Sticker, eh? Though this time isn’t a Thing sticker, this fight consists of getting an “Excellent” hit with a baahammer on the Big Chain Chomp after fighting something that cannot take damage, and then run away to pound its stake, not one of my favorite World 5 moments. 17: Bowser Jr. 1 Top 10 easiest fights in video games, it’s a good intro to thing stickers, and while this thing sticker is required, it’s also obvious you must use it. Actually not terrible. Just incredibly easy 16: Kamek 3 The fact that this fight is to rid you of your stickers before going into the final fight was such a bad idea. If you don’t remember which ones are flip flops, that’s bad news for you. If you aren’t on the right page before you select your stickers, Kamek could delete a Thing sticker/powerful sticker before the garbage final fight, and there isn’t any way to save your game between those fights 15: Kamek 2 A lesser chance of losing really bad stickers, and if you suck so much at using eekhammers, you get a worn-out sticker to help deal some more damage. this fight also doesn’t hurt you after you wallop him. 14: Big Cheep Cheep Shroob, imma teach you a secret that will ruin your next experience with this fight, after you use the fishhook, wait one turn to where he gets big and then use a spike helmet. He goes Pop!. Not a fan of the required thing though. 13: Tower Power Pokey This fight is interesting, because I love how in this game, you can fight any other the chapter bosses from other chapters to bulk up before going to fight this guy. Because it’s easily the hardest chapter boss fight besides the final fight. And then I used the Jackhammer… which apparently has a boosted amount of damage against this guy, and then there’s also the Boom Box. Honestly the possibilities of defeating chapter bosses besides Bowser are endless, and that’s what I like about this game’s bosses. 12. Big Scuttlebug The abundance of boomerang bros. in the level prior really helps you take out the web, and I like that because the deal damage twice. The scuttlebug is pretty easy to take out though 11: Boo Night Fever You can cheese this fight with a Thing card on the first turn, but if you don’t, it’s kind of not easy. Some of the boos go invisible and then scare you after 1 turn, somehow making you unable to see clearly. 10: Bowser Jr. 2 This is a better bulky enemy that honestly could be taken down with just a few clone jumps. The bombs are something to add from his first fight and his increase of health is something to add as well. There shouldn’t be a problem taking this guy out, and for the bomb attack, he chucks it at you dealing damage, but what you are supposed to do, is use a hurl hammer to explode the bomb + hit him combo without dealing damage to yourself. Though you could just whoop his tail before knowing what it does. B tier fight. 9: Giant Buzzy Beetle A nice introduction to the Battle spinner, use a jump or pow block to flip him over (even better if you get the pow on the jackpot) and then wallop him. Even as an intro fight I believe it’s pretty well made. 8: Kamek 1 Somehow his introduction was his best version. It’s interesting how he can heal the goombas, (albeit 1%) but it’s interesting he can do that. Uses magic, but for a beginner fight being the best version of it, it works. 7: Petey That darn dry bones death I had after using an infinijump still haunts me. Music is okay for the most part. But this kinda is underwhelming for a World 5 fight, it’s the first one I beat after beating the Megasparkle Goomba. and really is the definition of missed potential. He hurts himself as much as he does you, and there are so many broken stickers found in world 5 as well. 6: Gooper Blooper Super Mario Sunshine and this game have a lot in common, it’s where the Gooper Blooper appears and it has music that carries some of its levels. Really the levels that don’t use FLUDD. This fight is heavily carried by music, and I’m okay with that since it’s gimmick is literally music. You block attacks with the tempo, the giddy music is your turn to use strong attacks, and Frog Suits during this fight make it an absolute joke. 5: Mizzter Blizzard Fire. That’s it. And it really fits it especially since it has 400HP this time. Ok so these next two fights are up here specifically for the reason that there are so many ways to whoop them but there’s never a wrong way to fight them 4. Big Boo Fan or anything water related puts the candles out, spike helmets destroy him. Hopslippers can whoop him too. And the infinijumps can take him out and one turn. Really fun imo. And also has some very unique attacks as well as… 3. Megasparkle Goomba From Fighting a bunch of Goombas to fighting a giant Goomba, to fighting a cone, to fighting 16 goombas held together by one. The scissors destroy it and the fan blows them all over in one of the phases along with many beginner friendly attacks that introduce bosses in the game. And the cherry on top goes to the Goomba yelling “cowards” to the 16 others that left. And turns into a flunky dude with one hp. Goombas in paper mario games seem to have a lot of humor 2. Bowser Jr. 3 You’re explanation essentially nailed everything I need to say, you know why this fight is good, but do you know what #1 is? 1: Giant Cheep Chomp That’s right, minibosses go 1 & 2. What’s weird is that you don’t fight this guy normally… or at all. This guy was one of the biggest highlights in the game for me keeping all of the raft together. the more raft you lose, the easier it is to control. And the fish’s one hit KO move is also terrifying to get hit by. And this isn’t a short fight either and there’s no battle garbage that anyone has to deal with during this fight. Just survive, and this fight is the best it could possibly be with what it worked with. Music, Gameplay, Replayability, it’s all there. Thx for reading this long comment, and analyze my choices, I like this game unlike a lot of others, so many of these choices will probably be unpopular Except Bowser 🤢 🤢 🤢 🤮
I actually don't like the Giant Cheep Chomp, It is surprising but it was annoying to do more than one to me personally. It was also just kinda slow and I definitely would have preferred an actual level instead. good list though nonetheless :D
ill be completely honest about the big boo fight, i heard you say "he goes invisible" and i was just like "cant you use the fan to blow out the candles so he comes back??" i never knew that was an actual possibility but it was pretty easy to figure out on my own so thats a plus ig also i just inf jumped him once and won lol so i didnt even KNOW he went invis
Jesus you have a big brain then I would have never figured that out LOL. I also just never use infinite jumps yet just because I don’t wanna waste them
@@ShroobInvaderis that a thing built up from playing the game more than once? Quite a few of your listed issues etc really seemed backwards to me, but I only played the game once and wouldn't see it as a game to come back to either (no clue if I infinijumped boo, but swear I used infinijump, pretty sure the mega flash version quite a few times, that or the boos were where I blew them all) The things I recall always having and the game being pretty clear where to use them I would've been 9 when I played the game. pretty sure kirsty tells you for most of the things in dialogue before the battles Favourite boss was the pokey from what I recall btw
Also just remembered I liked the final boss so that's backwards to everyone else, think it was that I played it like a puzzle and routed out my plan to speedkill it all (did same thing on one of the mario and Luigi games doing an infinite on the final boss from what I recall) All of this could be misremembered and would probably be different today
Did you know you don’t even need the scissors for the whomp? Because if you use an eek hammer to tip him over his defense is destroyed and he can be easily defeated. That’s how stupid this final boss is😂
Hate me if you will for this but paper Mario sticker star’s my favorite game in this series. Don’t ever change my mind weather you hate it or not because you know it’s my opinion.
@ShroobInvader And it was, completely agree with Number 1 btw, good fight. Also I always thought the only weakness to the Big Boo was the soda, the more you know.
26:17 & 20:40 What is Kamek doing here? Kamek fights are in no way enjoyable. 21:08 is just bewildering because HOW DO YOU ENJOY THAT????? I might try to defend other fights because I have actual nostalgia for this, but 2 fights I have always hated. Kamek and Bowser

-I personally wouldn't have put the Big Cheep Cheep as high for a couple reasons. First, while the thing you need is pretty obvious if you've seen it, it's completely possible that you wouldn't have, considering that it's found within a secret door. Additionally, while the fight having a turn limit is a cool concept, I don't really like how the game doesn't communicate that to you. As such, the 99 damage explosion that eventually happens does come off as a kind of cheap death the first time around.
-You mention for Gooper Blooper that the music is the only positive that people seem to have for it, but I'd like to mention that I also think the fight has a very good buildup. From the beginning of World 3, you see that the whole forest has been getting covered in poison. A bit later, when you visit the shop, you get a view of the shipwreck with the poison seeping out of it, revealing where it is that the poison is coming from. This happens again once you first visit the beach. Near the end of World 3, once one of the Wiggler segments tries to get a toad to sail a boat over there, you're told that another boat recently disappeared around that area, and as such, the toad doesn't want to sail over there because it would be too dangerous. This establishes that the source of the poison is a big threat. All these story events related to the boss make it a lot more memorable in my opinion. I think it's cool how Gooper Blooper ties into the happenings of the entire chapter, because no other boss really does that.
I have no rebuttal to all these points except the Gooper blooper one. It’s still just not something that makes the battle better. Maybe the build up but that’s really it. The battle itself is really only carried by the music and that’s it at least to most people and it was proven when people put in the premiere chat the music and nothing else
@@ShroobInvader Fair enough. I suppose it's true that it doesn't really have to do with the battle itself.
"needing multiple thing cards does really suck"
I think you can not be overstating this enough. ESPECIALLY because the item that allows you to flee from unfleeable battles... does _not_ work. I remember the realization dawning on me that I would either have to let myself be slowly killed in this battle, or turn the game off.
And I was _disgusted._
Hey shroob! Sorry for saying I hate your channel. I don't. I'm a massive fan! So heres a video idea! Ranking every single boss in paper mario the origami king. Minibosses,main bosses and paper macho fights! Ok can't wait for your next video!
31:36 the music and how funny the blooper looks when you turn his ink back at him
meh idk I've seen it too many times to find it funny, I will admit it is a bit abnormal
I’ve never played color splash because i heard it was similar to sticker star
Is it worth a shot by any chance?
While the battle systems are quite similiar, I actually think the levels make it worth it so I suggest trying it
i didnt like sticker star but i liked color splash
i think you should give it a try yourself and see if its worth pushing through the terrible combat. for me it was (but at one point i got so frustrated by the combat i took a break from color splash and played origami king, a game with combat i actually enjoyed, from start to finish and then came back to it)
@@questionmarkquestionmarkques its so weird cuz its the opposite for me
unrelated note, but you can use a spike helmet to prematurely detonate the cheep cheep. Deals a lot of damage, but it ain't outright death...depending on it's size, anyway.
Yeah I heard someone else talk about that in the comments. Its something I forget about but it does make the fight worse
I believe if you time your poke/guard with the spike helmet you can avoid damage entirely. Not certain though.
Why does everyone forget that you can just beat the big cheap cheap easy if you use a spike helmet after you pull him out of the water
…good question cause I also forgot about it LOL
Gooper Blooper and Tower Power Pokey have my heart for their themes, and Ice bowser statue, Petey Piranha, and TPP again have my heart for gameplay
while this seems that TPP is my fave
I love Goop’s theme way too much to rank him lower than no. 1
Yeah that’s fair
@@ShroobInvader Still a great choice for no.1, mate!
My opinion hasn’t changed I still have Petey as best and final boss as worst also great video 😊
Thank you and good choices :D
@@ShroobInvaderthanks and you’re welcome 😇
WE ARE SO BACK! 🗣️ 🔥 🔥
you can actually also use the soda thing for big boo, it's the one i always use on my playthroughs, had no idea the fan worked too lol
Really shows a lot that the first chapter boss is over most of the bosses on the game
I am just gonna get this off my chest
Even if Paper Mario does make a return to form an becomes more like 64 and TTYD I still want Bowser Jr to keep appearing in the Paper Mario games, he's my favorite Mario character and I still want to see him in these games.
I can get behind this
So you replayed sticker star right? Is the game better or worse than you remember?
Its exactly how I rememeber it or worse. the reason I say this is that the complaints I had stuck when I sometimes thought before if they really were that bad.
I waited a VERY long time for this video
This video NEEDED to be made LOL
@@ShroobInvader haha yes indeed
Alright my list, also my non-descriptive Color Splash level ranking is commented under one of my comments.
You missed a few:
Big Chain Chomp
Big Cheep Chomp
(Boo Night Fever) Maybe this one, I’ll rank it anyway
19: Supreme Sparkling King: I love this game, but this is the worst final level/boss combo ever. To enjoy this game you must have patience. Most people that I know that hate this game lost it. I didn’t until this final level and specifically this fight, because I beat it without a guide. 97 tries I counted. Only pro is that the first phase has some great music. Need I say more? Yes I do, this fight is worse than the STEAK
18: Big Chain Chomp: Requiring a Sticker, eh? Though this time isn’t a Thing sticker, this fight consists of getting an “Excellent” hit with a baahammer on the Big Chain Chomp after fighting something that cannot take damage, and then run away to pound its stake, not one of my favorite World 5 moments.
17: Bowser Jr. 1
Top 10 easiest fights in video games, it’s a good intro to thing stickers, and while this thing sticker is required, it’s also obvious you must use it. Actually not terrible. Just incredibly easy
16: Kamek 3
The fact that this fight is to rid you of your stickers before going into the final fight was such a bad idea. If you don’t remember which ones are flip flops, that’s bad news for you. If you aren’t on the right page before you select your stickers, Kamek could delete a Thing sticker/powerful sticker before the garbage final fight, and there isn’t any way to save your game between those fights
15: Kamek 2
A lesser chance of losing really bad stickers, and if you suck so much at using eekhammers, you get a worn-out sticker to help deal some more damage. this fight also doesn’t hurt you after you wallop him.
14: Big Cheep Cheep
Shroob, imma teach you a secret that will ruin your next experience with this fight, after you use the fishhook, wait one turn to where he gets big and then use a spike helmet. He goes Pop!. Not a fan of the required thing though.
13: Tower Power Pokey
This fight is interesting, because I love how in this game, you can fight any other the chapter bosses from other chapters to bulk up before going to fight this guy. Because it’s easily the hardest chapter boss fight besides the final fight. And then I used the Jackhammer… which apparently has a boosted amount of damage against this guy, and then there’s also the Boom Box. Honestly the possibilities of defeating chapter bosses besides Bowser are endless, and that’s what I like about this game’s bosses.
12. Big Scuttlebug
The abundance of boomerang bros. in the level prior really helps you take out the web, and I like that because the deal damage twice. The scuttlebug is pretty easy to take out though
11: Boo Night Fever
You can cheese this fight with a Thing card on the first turn, but if you don’t, it’s kind of not easy. Some of the boos go invisible and then scare you after 1 turn, somehow making you unable to see clearly.
10: Bowser Jr. 2
This is a better bulky enemy that honestly could be taken down with just a few clone jumps. The bombs are something to add from his first fight and his increase of health is something to add as well. There shouldn’t be a problem taking this guy out, and for the bomb attack, he chucks it at you dealing damage, but what you are supposed to do, is use a hurl hammer to explode the bomb + hit him combo without dealing damage to yourself. Though you could just whoop his tail before knowing what it does. B tier fight.
9: Giant Buzzy Beetle
A nice introduction to the Battle spinner, use a jump or pow block to flip him over (even better if you get the pow on the jackpot) and then wallop him. Even as an intro fight I believe it’s pretty well made.
8: Kamek 1
Somehow his introduction was his best version. It’s interesting how he can heal the goombas, (albeit 1%) but it’s interesting he can do that. Uses magic, but for a beginner fight being the best version of it, it works.
7: Petey
That darn dry bones death I had after using an infinijump still haunts me. Music is okay for the most part. But this kinda is underwhelming for a World 5 fight, it’s the first one I beat after beating the Megasparkle Goomba. and really is the definition of missed potential. He hurts himself as much as he does you, and there are so many broken stickers found in world 5 as well.
6: Gooper Blooper
Super Mario Sunshine and this game have a lot in common, it’s where the Gooper Blooper appears and it has music that carries some of its levels. Really the levels that don’t use FLUDD. This fight is heavily carried by music, and I’m okay with that since it’s gimmick is literally music. You block attacks with the tempo, the giddy music is your turn to use strong attacks, and Frog Suits during this fight make it an absolute joke.
5: Mizzter Blizzard
Fire. That’s it. And it really fits it especially since it has 400HP this time.
Ok so these next two fights are up here specifically for the reason that there are so many ways to whoop them but there’s never a wrong way to fight them
4. Big Boo
Fan or anything water related puts the candles out, spike helmets destroy him. Hopslippers can whoop him too. And the infinijumps can take him out and one turn. Really fun imo. And also has some very unique attacks as well as…
3. Megasparkle Goomba
From Fighting a bunch of Goombas to fighting a giant Goomba, to fighting a cone, to fighting 16 goombas held together by one. The scissors destroy it and the fan blows them all over in one of the phases along with many beginner friendly attacks that introduce bosses in the game. And the cherry on top goes to the Goomba yelling “cowards” to the 16 others that left. And turns into a flunky dude with one hp. Goombas in paper mario games seem to have a lot of humor
2. Bowser Jr. 3
You’re explanation essentially nailed everything I need to say, you know why this fight is good, but do you know what #1 is?
1: Giant Cheep Chomp
That’s right, minibosses go 1 & 2. What’s weird is that you don’t fight this guy normally… or at all. This guy was one of the biggest highlights in the game for me keeping all of the raft together. the more raft you lose, the easier it is to control. And the fish’s one hit KO move is also terrifying to get hit by. And this isn’t a short fight either and there’s no battle garbage that anyone has to deal with during this fight. Just survive, and this fight is the best it could possibly be with what it worked with. Music, Gameplay, Replayability, it’s all there.
Thx for reading this long comment, and analyze my choices, I like this game unlike a lot of others, so many of these choices will probably be unpopular
Except Bowser 🤢 🤢 🤢 🤮
I actually don't like the Giant Cheep Chomp, It is surprising but it was annoying to do more than one to me personally. It was also just kinda slow and I definitely would have preferred an actual level instead. good list though nonetheless :D
ill be completely honest about the big boo fight, i heard you say "he goes invisible" and i was just like "cant you use the fan to blow out the candles so he comes back??"
i never knew that was an actual possibility but it was pretty easy to figure out on my own so thats a plus ig
also i just inf jumped him once and won lol so i didnt even KNOW he went invis
Jesus you have a big brain then I would have never figured that out LOL. I also just never use infinite jumps yet just because I don’t wanna waste them
@@ShroobInvader I’m normally one for saving things for when they matter, but I saw that perfect 100 hp and knew what had to be done
@@ShroobInvaderis that a thing built up from playing the game more than once? Quite a few of your listed issues etc really seemed backwards to me, but I only played the game once and wouldn't see it as a game to come back to either (no clue if I infinijumped boo, but swear I used infinijump, pretty sure the mega flash version quite a few times, that or the boos were where I blew them all)
The things I recall always having and the game being pretty clear where to use them I would've been 9 when I played the game. pretty sure kirsty tells you for most of the things in dialogue before the battles
Favourite boss was the pokey from what I recall btw
Also just remembered I liked the final boss so that's backwards to everyone else, think it was that I played it like a puzzle and routed out my plan to speedkill it all (did same thing on one of the mario and Luigi games doing an infinite on the final boss from what I recall)
All of this could be misremembered and would probably be different today
You can also use water attack things (not super soaker) like the watering can (which is in the enigmansion) or the soda can.
I dont think you have to actually use tails for bowser jr, do you? Thought you vould just overpower the shield insteah
I hope you're doing alright, I'd love to see your takes on the surprise reveal of a new Mario and Luigi game
**** the Bowser fight man, To think this used to be your second least favorite Bowser fight in the entire Mario Rpgs
Are you ever coming back?
Hey shroob ! Now that the Mario RPG Remake is out , could you maybe make a boss ranking video ?
Any changes of a paper Mario 64 boss ranking soon really excited for it!
19:55 Did… did you leave an outtake in the video?
Could you rank the Luigi’s Mansion 3 bosses? Or the Koopaling fights from every game?
Did you know you don’t even need the scissors for the whomp? Because if you use an eek hammer to tip him over his defense is destroyed and he can be easily defeated. That’s how stupid this final boss is😂
This will be fire
heck ye it will :D
The Bowser fight from this game is the second worst Bowser fight I've ever faced it's worse than the Bowser fight in New super Mario Bros
Lower down your list is pretty much the same but higher up it's much more different because you originally had Bowser and big boo at the bottom
RANKING STICKER STAR BOSSES FROM WORST TO LEAST BAD
They're flip flops... not sandals🙄
literally the same thing LOL
Well... close enough I guess
This was my favorite paper Mario game and my 1st one!
Also did you see the Mario movie shroob?
Nope!
@@ShroobInvader 😢
u can actually completly skip the boo fight with the water gun and smth else
3:50
I used the one at the start.
100 damage right off the bat.
Can you rank all of the Mario RPG?
Rank every final area from the paper mario series
What about ranking every final boss from every Mario rpg?
There's only one Mario rpg he hasn't played yet.
Whatever happened to your discord server? I remember you having one
Did you know that a spiked helmet kills the Cheep Cheep in one go?
That was the most anticlimactic thing in my life
19:53 did you make a mistake here?
yeah I did LOL, I noticed it in the premiere and was like god dang it man
@@ShroobInvader it's no biggie, 1 mistake in a 30+ minute video will happen
I would actually do the last Bowser Junior fight without using the tail. I thought it made it more fun
how would you even break the shield on Bowser Jr then? I never knew you could get around that
@@ShroobInvader you can get around it. I haven’t done it in a while so I don’t exactly remember how to but I know you can
Hate me if you will for this but paper Mario sticker star’s my favorite game in this series. Don’t ever change my mind weather you hate it or not because you know it’s my opinion.
Can you explain why?
@@zaden2009 because I love the music boss fights final boss and graphics and writing.
@@Tailsfan5338 do you like the “things”
@@zaden2009 yes. Because the animations in my opinion are great in my opinion.
What do you think of paper mario color splash?
I actually did my own ranking of these bosses on my channel and my opinions are clearly different
Where are you man?
Guess he is not a FAN of the boo fight
Birthday present.
Hope this is a good present :D
@@ShroobInvader I think it will be!
@ShroobInvader And it was, completely agree with Number 1 btw, good fight.
Also I always thought the only weakness to the Big Boo was the soda, the more you know.
For the Goomba boss fight I always use the scsiors
26:17 & 20:40 What is Kamek doing here? Kamek fights are in no way enjoyable. 21:08 is just bewildering because HOW DO YOU ENJOY THAT????? I might try to defend other fights because I have actual nostalgia for this, but 2 fights I have always hated. Kamek and Bowser
Do a Top 10 hopes for Paper Mario ttyd remake video
I have I new video idea hot takes people comment thier unpopular ideas you read them and either agree or dissagre
has something happened to you?
I missed missed the…premier!😭
that's fine at least you are still able to watch the video now :D
22:37 ha, I see what you did there
It’s not a opinion it is the worst final boss in the game. No need to say in my opinion.
valid LOL
It’s also the best final boss in this game, since there’s only one :P
I regret making my mom get me this game to me is just ok
Aw s***, her we go again.
Nice LOL
@@ShroobInvader you loke that GTA refer?
I want to like this, but it is on 69 currently
And that’s pretty nice
Imma get some hate for this but...
This game fire🔥
Yeah ngl Imma have to disagree with this but I do respect it
W video
“starting off our top 3, we’re not at the good bosses yet”😂😂
i really hope nintendo doesn't make a crap game like this again, it's probably the worst mario game and the worst nintendo game ever made
Nah the worst game is marios timemachine or mario is missing
@@ArcanePower1 at least both are funny ironically unlike this game
19:58 what?? Lmao
Hi, do you have discord
