Can ANY Boss Survive the Strongest Black Blade Kindred? - Elden Ring

  • In this elden ring video I'm testing whether any of the main bosses in elden ring can survive a battle against the strongest black blade kindred.
    To test this I've chosen the strongest variation of the kindred which is Caelid's but equipped it with the twinblade since it's the strongest moveset variation. He has 12k hp and just over 100 poise but parts of his moveset seem to be broken and overpowered especially against bosses that have a larger hitbox.
    Battles:
    0:00 Intro
    0:34 Radahn
    1:35 Godrick
    2:20 Rennala
    3:09 Gideon Ofnir
    4:22 Morgott
    5:19 Astel
    6:02 Rykard
    8:08 Fortissax
    9:25 Godskin Duo
    11:14 Placidusax
    12:23 Fire Giant
    13:59 Radagon
    15:16 Elden Beast
    17:02 Malenia
    18:54 Godfrey
    20:27 Mohg
    21:17 Maliketh

    I legitimately thought that Rennala was going to win for a change and it was jarring to see her get deleted in two swings. It’s was like a jump scare to see her health bar be halved when she was practically using the Black Blade Kindred as target practice.

    I have fond memories of getting teleported to the temple at the end of Caelid in the first half of the game. I walked up to the Black Blade Kindred standing outside the temple thinking to myself "hmmm, this might just be doable with a site of grace right on the other side of the door", got instantly deleted by the black blade tornado and went "yeah, ok. I'll come back much later."

The way Kindred got staggered by the first strike, ate the second while still down and just barely stood up only to be hit by the third swing was perfect, and the way the Kindred perfectly fell on the center of the Elden ring was badass.

      ​​@@MrEvan312 I think it's moreso to do with hitbox issues, rather than their stats.
      For example, Fire Giant is arguably the tankiest in the whole game, yet he didn't take nearly as much damage as Rykard and Placidusax.
      This is likely because Fire Giant's legs is a smaller hitbox.

      That fight was indescribably perfect in many levels.
      It begins with a straight-up brawl, with Radagon slightly out-damaging the kindred. Then the beast whips out ranged attacks, and outmanuevers Radagon. After that, Radagon starts using his incantations and quickly regains advantage.
      The whole thing then ends with the kindred using its strongest attack, almost killing Radagon. Ofc, the chad survives and whips out HIS strongest attack, laying the black blade to rest

    You should buff The HP of Baleful Shadow and have him fight the bosses to see how he holds up. Or maybe have him as is, and pair him up with Alecto The Black Knife Ringleader and see if bosses can survive the duo.

      Alternatively, let's run Blaidd through the gauntlet and scale him up to the bosses. lol

      I’d like to see the misbegotten crusader with the golden order Greatsword against bosses

      Radagon and Elden Beast would delete him so hard.

    The Malenia fight is hardly a fair contest. Her 2nd phase blossom is just free damage since the AI can’t actually avoid it. If she didn’t use her blossom then Black Blade may have actually taken her down.
