      ​@@chrange9714to my knowledge, Scissors has two different "routes", if you will, for how you can fight them- a hard one and an easier one. The easy one happens if, as the game VERY strongly recommends you to do, you don't break Scissors' cover during the first phase (which they eventually remove anyways, but magic circles will be active from there on and you can stun them). Meanwhile, the hard route happens if you DO break Scissors' cover, from which they will go all out and no magic circles will be provided at all, making the fight a pure test of wits and reaction time with whatever weapons you have at your disposal (made even harder on top of the fact that, as Scissors keeps attacking, they'll begin to use fakeouts)...

  • @yeehaw7225

    I absolutely love this song, and not just because it slaps, but because it so PERFECTLY captures Scissor's personality; He appears to be an honorable gentleman compared to the other boss fights, but in reality he is totally deranged. He cut out people's faces and put them onto a macho beetle. He pretends to give you a fair fight by sheathing himself, when in reality he's just taunting you and laughing at you because he knows he'll win. He's toying with you. Absolutely psychotic, just like the song.

    I love all the League of Stationery bosses, but The Dual-Blade Duelist is probably the most intimidating of them all in terms of build up.
    He makes these creepy cutout soldiers, that terrifying Handaconda boss, cuts all the faces of Bowser's minions on a Paper Macho Buzzy Beetle (with the faces still being alive, mind you), and completely slices Bowser Jr. to shreds earlier in the area.
    And this cocky as hell guy decides to toy with you during the fight by covering his blades to give you a "fair advantage" until he gets bored or if you actually break the case. With a move that will completely one-shot you if you're not careful. The way he unsheathes himself is also pretty freaking cool.
    This theme is also a personal favorite of mine next to The Fanged Fastener, The Disco Devil, and The Shifty Sticker. It's fast-paced, gets straight to the point, the violins carry this sense of urgency with the guitars adding a lot of intensity. Followed with the quirky Paper Mario-esque instruments that the series is known for. Especially around 0:43 - 1:06.
    I know scissors can be pretty dangerous in real life, but in a world where everything is made of paper...it's everyone's nightmare.

      A better battle system and a level up function if Nintendo wants to call this series an "RPG" still. As far as the gameplay goes, Boss Battles are amazing! However, the party system, how there's no tradition level-up rubrics, the boring/basic attacks Mario has, and the ring system that shoehorns in puzzles where they have no business being all make the gameplay even worse than Color Splash's. This post isn't supposed to be a "REEEE TTYD OR BUST" post. It's just a point that lists several aspects I think _everyone_ is overlooking in an attempt to make PM TOK look better than it actually is. It's by no means a bad game. It's just a HUGE disappointment.

      @@bigboybunter3417 you should just stop seeing them as traditional Paper Mario games. Paper Mario is nothing but a "we don't want to start a new IP, so let's take this one for all paper related ideas we have". There isn't going to be another game like the first two in this series. If you don't have Paper Mario expectations going into them (honestly, why do you still have those, now we have double the amount of non-RPG PM games than we have RPG PM games), you don't get nearly as much disappointment.
      The disappoint is - like most of the time - probably 70+% the audience just expecting the wrong things, or too much. If you take this game as stand alone, it's a great game. combat is kinda lackluster outside of bossfights, but the overworld gameplay is honestly good and the writing, soundtrack and bossfights are excellent.

    first by slicing up Bowser Jr., then by creating the paper cutout soldiers, slicing up all of Bowser's minions, and kidnapping Olivia.

    I love how the electric guitar is the most apparent instrument in Scissor's theme in particular! That's really good character theming when you think about it! Put it like this: What is a term used to describe when someone is going absolute ham on a guitar?... Rocking out?... How about _shredding?_ Get it now? Good attention to detail in the soundtrack!
