    The King's challenges are better played with Ms.Chalice, cause of her dodge/parry and double jump. You have more control with her and the whole dlc feels like it is based more on her moveset than cuphead/mugman.

    id say winchester is harder than glumstone. literally everything on winchesters stage is a hitbox, while the floor on glumstones stage has a slight delay, almost everything with winchester is a homing missile in the first 2 phases, and winchester is a plane level, which imo is harder than ground levels

      Yeah glumstone was the first boss I killed and I had more trouble overall with winchester. Usually the trick with bullet hell type bosses is to forget about the boss on-screen and just hold the shoot button while focusing completely on your character for dodging but winchester constantly changes position so you have to worry about where you’re shooting as well.

    It's always fun to see difficulty tier lists from people and how different someone's experience with the game can be. I found Glumstone among the easiest of bosses, given you can get through phase 1 fairly quickly and there is rarely if ever any need to get off of the stone pilars.
    Chef Saltbaker was by far the most difficult of the bunch for me. Especially that god forsaken flame that no matter what, when, or where always manages to be in your way at the right time XD
    This DLC was incredible and so full of charm. Much more difficult than the base game, but fair throughout all bosses and all phases. Not once did I feel they overdid it, seeing each phase unfold while progressively learning, and see insane amounts of creativity for boss design made dying no problem. Because I could experience it all over again.
    Here's hoping for a Cuphead 2, easily the best indie game in recent years!!!

    I'm pretty sure that the King's Leap was meant for Ms. Chalice. All of the bosses are much easier with her because of the double jump and dash parry. It makes it to where hitting the bosses ESPECIALLY the knight a lot easier.

    I'm so glad I wasn't the only one who thought Crack Shot was insanely good, it deals respectable damage while also letting you focus a bit more on dodging projectiles (aka a better homing shot). While I do agree with the majority of the ranking here, Chef Saltbaker kinda takes my spot as either #2 or #1 hardest boss: I've had so many unlucky hits with the living flame as well as the flying lime slices, neither of which you could destroy or parry unlike the animal cracker adds. Phase 2 is thankfully a little bit easier since you could easily burst down the pepper shakers and push through that part of the fight way easier than the first phase.
    Overall, I'm glad the DLC is worth the wait. The game hasn't lost its age at all even though it's been about 5 years. I'm def excited to go back and A/S rank these bosses !

    Personally, I think Rook is harder than Queen, mainly because of the fact that it's sometimes not safe to parry the heads, making it draw out a little longer. If you're good enough at aiming and dodging, Queen is easy. Just my opinion though.
    Edit: Thought I'd add this: Rook seems easier with Ms. Chalice. Again, my opinion, but it does seem to be the case.

    2:58 on top of The cannons, they're annoying due to having less control over them, they should be alined and stay that way so you can decide when to fire.
    I believe she should have a second phase, where she Throws out the other pieces(Rook,Knight,Pope,Pawn) that are able to be launched back at her, move in their original incarations(Pawn in once in a foward line,Khignt in a L shape,Rook Heavy with more health and move in a Line upward/forwad/Downward,Pope does Zig Zag across the entire screen)and uses they're respective weapons:
    *Pawn's is Short Dagger she throws.
    *Rook's axe is Heavy but Causes an earthquake as she slams it down.
    *Pope She charges an Ability the heals her for 2 health.
    *Knight's Sword Will be used to Slice and stab you, If she gains his Shield shell block the parried projectile.
    *King's LOng sword, She Spins with it Moving where th Slash is(Mid/Low), gets dizzy after use.
    Her Health would be at 14.

    I was able to S rank the giant way easier than other bosses using the crack shot and wind up. Crackshot can eliminate most gnomes in the first phase the second they spawn since the homing shots kill them in one hit; you can pretty much get rid of 50% of the obstacles. Also that last phase of that fight is by far the easiest. There’s barely any projectiles and the platforms are super telegraphed as when they’re gonna come down.

    pro tip for The Knight: when he does his dash, instead of dashing over it, parry over it. if you are close enough afterwards you can actually get another 2 parries in while he's tired for a total of 3

  • @SpaceOmega-zz6vs

  • @jesperwillems_
    @jesperwillems_ 2 роки тому

    I think the reason why The Knight takes 20 hits to be defeated is that using Chalice, you can hit him once after the quick upslash and reliably hit him THREE times on the other two attacks - as well as being able to damage tank once to get two quick hits in. If you’re skilled enough, you can finish him off in 5-7 of his attacks depending on RNG. If he had any less HP the fight would genuinely take 3 seconds

    11:20 Dude that made me laugh haha
    I used Ms. Chalice and crackshot for most of the levels. I still think Chef Saltbaker takes the cake in terms of difficulty, kind of like the Devil from Cuphead 1. Maybe it’s just the buildup before facing the final boss that psyched me out mentally, but the projectiles were insane on that level. Saltbaker doesn’t make as good as a villain as the Devil does, IMO. Something about accepting the Devil’s offer of selling your soul and seeing Cuphead and MugMan turn into demons was terrifying (along with the theme music playing backwards when the game restarts). Also we had to complete 3 Isles of Cuphead bosses before facing the Devil so it felt like forever before actually facing him.
    I don’t know about anyone else but I struggled with phase 2 of Mortimer Freeze. The snowman moves across the screen in so many directions and the icicles coming up from the ground would happen at the same time a popsicle would float down and hit me.
    There were so many references to Djimmi the Great in this game - everything from the flying treasure in Howlin’ Aces and the Queens level to the eyeball laser in Mortimer Freeze. Some of it felt a little redundant compared to the last game, but the beautiful animation took my mind off of it. It really is kind of amazing what MDHR has created between these 2 games. It’s a shame we may no longer see another Cuphead release, but hopefully they have some other cool games coming out in the future. (Also the soundtrack was better in the first game IMO, with more memorable boss themes - Mortimer Freeze had the best theme in the DLC)

But it only works if there is a second player as cuphead playing normally.

    I thought the moonshine gang was one of the hardest just because of the first phase, the sheer amount of screen spam it throws at you is just ridiculous. The fight starts with those web bombs, which themselves aren't too tough, but then he summons those goons which you have to kill, and they take a second to spawn so you have to make a mental note of them while you're paying attention to other stuff, and these police ants periodically spew slow moving poison clouds, and from time to time the spider will come out and throw caterpillar chakrams at you, which are going to constantly be allocating space in your brain until you take care of them because they are really dangerous
