This part right here is why Portrait of Ruin is my favorite DS Castlevania, and one of my favorite games ever played. Jonathan unlocking the power of the Vampire Killer with the help of the Lecarde sisters, who were presumed to be enemies. And you fight Richter with some kickass music playing in the background... Man this game's good.
i agree that this fight incredibly RAW though my favorite aspects of PoR is taking advantage of both charlotte and jonathan to get past the many tough enemies and bosses through the game. personally my favorite DSvania is DoS but i love all 3 a ton so its not by a lot
@@greenguyquint Yes the chemistry between Jonathan and Charlotte is also one of the reasons why I love this game. No other Castlevania game has the same chemistry between 2 characters. I loved their dialogue and character development.
@@romanreigns5796 let me explain in short the vampire killer contains the soul of leon belmont(the first belmonts) fiance in it and as such the whip is technically alive as such it can remember its weilder as best as it can.now why does it remember richter? Well this is because richter put a security measure on the whip.
@@romanreigns5796 you should it is my favorite DS castlevania, to your question, Jonathan (the blond guy) is from the Morris family a family related to the Belmont but only the Belmont can wield the VK to its true power , so for the Morris to be able to wield that power they have to defeat memory of the last Belmont who wielded the VK and that's Richter, btw in the game it is explained how it is just a memory so it does not represent full power Richter Belmont. And if you have not played the game yet let me tell you the last boss is epic as fuck
i havent played any RE game so my fav is chris because he punches a boulder and thats funny as for castlevania hes tied with julius for me either way yeah they are very popular especially richter now that hes in smash
Richter is actually more popular in Japan. While Simon is more popular in the US(though I imagine that has changed to Trevor cause of the Netflix series). I personally like Leon Belmont and Simon Belmont. But to each their own
It is canon now that the whip has memories from every user since the beginning, and this was necessary for the heroes to summon Trevor Belmont in Grimoire of Souls. This battle is canon too, which means Richter is alergic to pie(?
My favorite Belmont’s not in order are prob Simon, richter, Julius, and Trevor. My god the castlevania representation in smash is beautiful. 34 music tracks, a stage with the most prominent bosses from the game, alucard as an assist and Dracula as boss even having his beast form from the original, rondo of blood, and many more, I can’t wait!
In all honesty, I was surprised to find out that he would be Simon's echo. I would've gone with Alucard to fight alongside him but we got Castlevania representing Smash now!
I mean I kinda wished Richter was a alt costume like the koopalings and alph so Either Alucard or Soma could've made it in. Why Soma, I feel like Soma could have a interesting moveset with his regular attacks using all sorts of weapons that would put even links or Byleth's arsenal to shame. And he could have a mp bar similar to hero's but recharges faster when not using specials but can't get any extra by attacking so he could use souls he got in Aos and Dos. Such as Giant bat/bat company as up b that allow for free movement however drains Soma's mp quickly, winged skeleton as his side b using around 10 before he runs out of mp if he spams them, Lighting doll as a neutral b being around 50 mp but is a good kill move, and Demon as down b that allows him to do 50% extra damage at 20% mp and Soma will take constant damage from 5 to 10 seconds making it a risk and reward special
Yes but so bad they are exactly teh same. If the developpers didn't have enough idea to make them differents they should have put alucard to replace one of them because he is as much iconic as them, or even Soma Cruz from castlevania AoS and DoS that both in most of the tops five of castlevania games.
I used the dark whip Trick: If you jump a bit close to richter there is a high chance that he will throw axe in air Use this opportunity to hit him twice(dealing 200+ damage in two hits using jet black whip), keep repeating)
Dude i th8nk if they used the martial arts he gonna punch your face in the wall whit the charge atack, send you to heaben whit the oppercut and break your eggs whit taht down kick... Yeah no thank
its way safer than the method i used here at least you can avoid most projectiles by jumping and throwing the pie and immediatly go back when its thrown out
his "item"? idk what you mean since richter doesnt get an inventory and only gets his whip and sub weapon but yeah it does make things far easier for jonathan lol
I hope we get a quincy morris story on how he defeated dracula so we can complete the morris clan storyline and also on how Jonathan gived the VK to Julius and trained him till 1999.
Now that the Morris can got the whip, i wonder how julius get it back?...hope we will finally get demon castle war ( the 1999 war against dracula) one day!
They are never going to do a story for it since konami likes to abandon their games most of the time. Id love to give them my story that helps bridge the gap between PoR and 1999
I immediately noticed the Jet Black Whip. I wonder if it's a coincidence(or if you purposefully stat'd your STR) it deals 100 damage. I was overlevelled for this fight so Jet Black dealt more damage. And had Maxed Out Cream Pie to end it in 10 seconds if I wanted to.
i think its a coincidence, i believe i wasnt overlevelled for this fight as i didnt grind anything this playthrough so my damage is probably about what the developers expected the player to have at this point
didnt even see your comment i replied this same thing to another guy but it's the Jet Black Whip found in the Burnt Paradise which does dark damage so Ritcher's weak to it
I'm at level 45 and still can't beat him. I might possibly start the game from scratch as I lost some of the decent weapons such as the whip you were using. I've been using a weapon called Heaven's Sword. Though it is weak, the plus side is that I can attack from a distance. The rest is down to luck by avoiding him as much as possible. Also have the Axe projectile equipped too. On some attempts I have managed to last long.
i have seen someone using the nebula whip at level 1 mode to beat him so i still believe you can do it. theres a lot of tactics like the mastered pie for example which you can probably still get, just make sure you stock up on potions if you make mistakes often he still will be hard but if you keep trying you will be able to do it
I fought him using Kaiser Knuckles. You heard that right. Oh, and by mashing the L button. Also, What's the deal with everyone flailing around cream pie? I didn't use it agaisnt Richter since i didnt have it at that point but i mastered it and it seems pretty uhh... bad?
Man, this fight perfectly exemplifies why I hate all the modern search action games with their dark souls invincirolls. You actually have to dodge and position yourself against Richter, your backdash has to be on point because it has no s. A lot of modern games just give you a full second or more invincible dodge roll to just press in reaction to attacks.
@@greenguyquint well it's not actually richter, its literally the "whips memory" of richter, its an imitation of him, I imagine that richter in his prime would clean Jonathan out.
anything weak against dark... which after a quick look at the bestiary its 1 enemy other than richter (the angel bow dudes) so not really i guess :P but hey beating richter gets you holy on the powered up vampire killer, which a LOT of enemies are weak to so theres that
imagine if every belmont had to fight the memory of the last person who wielded the whip. Richter would have had to endure Juste's insane speed and sheer magical power, while Juste would have been forced to use all that just to survive against the determination and power of a juggernaut like Simon.
they did something like that in the saturn version of sotn, but personally i think as the whips memory it makes sense that his design would be this one.
I've always assumed that when Sara "infused" her very own soul with the whip itself she had seemingly become one with it so that it's power to vanquish Dracula would be active at all times without any kind of "depowerment" that would require her soul to be constantly drawn into it via rituals and other such means. Since Sara's only desire was for the whip to prevent any further humans from turning into vampires(Leon's own words while forging the Vampire Killer whip: "I swear to you! No more will suffer your fate!") it is very likely that her commitment to her wish it what keeps her forever bound to be one with the whip until the day when Dracula would never return(Julius Belmont at the end of Aria of Sorrow: "When we fled the castle, *i felt the power of Vampire Killer fading away").* All things considered i doubt that Sara would have anything interesting to say to Leon's descendants when they're all far too busy fighting Evil incarnate to be wasting time chit chatting with their ancestor's fianceé. Better for them not to waste time chatting and more time fighting Evil.
@@greenguyquint Either that or she might be the one who's actually projecting the "memory" of Richter Belmont based on her own experience of being wielded by him. I would bet Sara's abbility to recall her previous owners across the Eras is the reason why Jonathan was able to fight a "memory" of Richter Belmont(as it is Sara's memory).
in my opinion this is way harder than sotn richter, then again sotn is on the easy side when it comes to the metroidvanias since alucard has so much stuff he can abuse
i dont think i understood the question? if youre asking where you get the skill for jonathan its somewhere on the left side of burial chamber, its been a bit so i dont remember exactly
Starting at 1:27 and then even more so at 1:51, the synth part being played in the song is pretty much the exact same riff played in the first part of the song “Tarkus” by ELP
off the top of my head, jonathan has to fight the whip's memory in order to unleash its full power as hes not a belmont thus not naturally able to utilize its potential
si estás hablando del golpe cuando juegas Richter, ⬆⬅⬇➡Y/botón de látigo. si hablas del jefe es aleatorio falo portugues e não espanhol então tomara que ta certo 👍
Es que al jugar con Richter, puedes activar un comando que el salta por detrás, y se mueve rapido sacando en su cuerpo una especie de cuchillos que se yo, pero brutal
@@blasterking7843 si esto no es lo que dije, vaya a este sitio y use Ctrl+F y escriba "Special Attack" para ver todos sus movimientos castlevania.fandom.com/wiki/Richter_Mode
@@greenguyquint that enemy drops two items Vougle And Ancient armor Vougle have dark element damage and high attack And Ancient armor makes you take the 10% of the Maxim HP with any attack so ritcher now is making the same damage than a skeleton You have 10 hits so the holy water is the scariest attack now You can use the moon walkers too cuz you get it at the first part of the game and improves your backwards dash but isn't necessary And the best subweapon (without take the creampie) Is the shuriken (mastered)
in my opinion they should have made Richter more agile and do somersaults and run everywhere, more similar to SotN, it seems that in PoR he is not excited about the fight or is he Is letting Jonathan win on purpose

Lost my shit to the awesomeness of this, really blew my mind back then when I played this first time
And don't forget the dracula and death battle
It's no SOTN this was the weakest of the 3DS games to me.
The fact they made this fight pretty hard shows how tough richter is as an opponent
and its interesting to think this is only the whips memory, richter is possibly stronger in person
Richter is the 2nd strongest Belmont, just losing for Julius (in my opinion)

Richter Belmont is like Leon Kennedy.. everyone's favorite male protagonist in their respective franchise.
i havent played any RE game so my fav is chris because he punches a boulder and thats funny
as for castlevania hes tied with julius for me
either way yeah they are very popular especially richter now that hes in smash
Agree 100%
Richter is actually more popular in Japan. While Simon is more popular in the US(though I imagine that has changed to Trevor cause of the Netflix series). I personally like Leon Belmont and Simon Belmont. But to each their own
I prefer Julius and Simon over Richter
I have prefered Alucard since The NES Days
It is canon now that the whip has memories from every user since the beginning, and this was necessary for the heroes to summon Trevor Belmont in Grimoire of Souls.
This battle is canon too, which means Richter is alergic to pie(?
im not well versed on the lore added in grimoire of souls i think i should do some research on it 🧐
The pies deal shadow damage. I don't think they're normal pies.
Our boy richter is in smash along with Simon now!🙂 Definitely one of my most liked out of all the Belmont’s.
yup! after i played through rondo of blood he definetly became one of my favourites as well. cant wait for it to come out!

For some reason, this fight reminds me of Zero Vs Omega in Mega Man Zero 3.
Well played btw
think the reason is because they are both fighting with similar moves, i love fights like that
also thanks!
I only noticed that now
So true!
Then richter said..
"magnificient! Now feel my wrath"
Hydro storm!!!
😅😅😅
with how tough it already is, jonathan got lucky the whip didnt remember richters item crash...
@@greenguyquint it does, richter can use grand cross
@@greenguyquint Except for the Grand Cross.
The Julius and Richter fights is exactly how I imagined the Smash games if they were 16-bit games
and then we got belmonts in smash! still cant believe it, exactly how i wanted them to play too
tbh this game was way before smash ultimate when they got introduced
I used nebula
Died 21+ times until i finally beated him
Edit: was in the phone emulator drastic
beating it with phone controls is an accomplishment on its own
good job
Same for me but I atleast had a controller.
@@thatotherguy1234 even with controller is hard
Looool same here. That stupid whip made like 30 damage :(
I used the dark whip
Trick: If you jump a bit close to richter there is a high chance that he will throw axe in air
Use this opportunity to hit him twice(dealing 200+ damage in two hits using jet black whip), keep repeating)
"I'm counting on you..."
RAW
@@greenguyquint How is this raw?
Here's a tip: use the heaven sword to deal safe damage from afar, and equip the ancient armour to reduce all of his attacks to just 10% of your max hp
now thats another strategy i havent heard of, sounds pretty good though
I used nebula whip to hit him from a safe distance
Did someone said PIE!? 🥧
Gracias maestro, intento esa porque pro no soy
Ya lo mate!!!!!
That's some intense fight, thanks RUclips for recommending me this video
well thanks for watching man
that soundtrack is so cool
castlevania always has really cool tracks, harmony of despair having one of my favourite osts ever
After this battle jonathan became a potion addict
will he EVER recover (from the addiction, as he clearly ever recovered health)
@@greenguyquint prolly not
There are many people who played this game just for this confrontation, that incredible soundtrack that makes your skin crawl, and I am one of them.
i played this game blind when i was going through a bunch of castlevania games and this fight was a very pleasant suprise for me, i like it a lot!
I Defeated this boss without taking damage in lv 39, it took me a long time to defeat him successfully without taking damage
good job! im not very good at no damage so i generally try that only on my absolute favourite games so thats pretty great!
Doesn't even use his Martial skills. What kind of memory Vampire Killer has...
to be fair, those were added in sotn. rondo richter didnt have any though he did have the item crash which richter also doesnt use
Dude i th8nk if they used the martial arts he gonna punch your face in the wall whit the charge atack, send you to heaben whit the oppercut and break your eggs whit taht down kick...
Yeah no thank
Well, maybe the whip doesn't consider Richter as his owner in SOtN because he was possesed.
@@greenguyquint yet the whip remember the slide :V
The Vampire was originally own by Leon Belmont, the first Belmont
We are so lucky that my man Richter didn't use HYDRO STORM
dude forgot where his item crash button was
I used fully maxed shuriken. No cream pie in my first fight but i made a copy of my save data to try cream pie and it's hard due to the pie range.
its way safer than the method i used here at least
you can avoid most projectiles by jumping and throwing the pie and immediatly go back when its thrown out
I did this fight with the javelin ability and it made it way easier
heard most people used the pie ability to cheese the boss since hes weak to dark but whatver works for you man
Good thing Richter didn't take his item into his grave and nerfing him too, Jonathan having item inventory like Alucard was also a life saver 😁.
his "item"? idk what you mean since richter doesnt get an inventory and only gets his whip and sub weapon but yeah it does make things far easier for jonathan lol
Lorewise Richster was one, if not, one of the strongest vampire killers on the belmont lineage
Just beat this. I used your spacing strategy but I had a lot easier time after I equipped the Heavenly Sword and Javelin ability. Thanks!
sick dude thanks for watching
@@greenguyquintlol shuriken more better for me because multiple damage
I hope we get a quincy morris story on how he defeated dracula so we can complete the morris clan storyline and also on how Jonathan gived the VK to Julius and trained him till 1999.

a little hard to understand but thanks i guess

yup, cool ass fight too
Shurikens are easy to master and will definitely help you finish it fast and easy.
havent heard this one but i believe you cus they were pretty fun to use from what i played with em
I prepared with mastered knives and nebula for a fight, and it ended up successfully with one drop kick at the face
pretty nice, starting to think strength up wasnt the best idea for back when i made this vid lol
is the Jet Black Whip good for anything else than dealing major damage against Richter?
anything weak against dark... which after a quick look at the bestiary its 1 enemy other than richter (the angel bow dudes) so not really i guess :P but hey beating richter gets you holy on the powered up vampire killer, which a LOT of enemies are weak to so theres that
*GUH!*
*I'm... counting on you.*
raw
now this was hard, even with me lock-jump kicking infinitely at him had to heal a lot when he managed to escape from the kicks
hes def easier with a good subweapon but i like the difficulty of doing it with the jet black whip and the holy mail
imagine if every belmont had to fight the memory of the last person who wielded the whip.
Richter would have had to endure Juste's insane speed and sheer magical power, while Juste would have been forced to use all that just to survive against the determination and power of a juggernaut like Simon.
itd be cool but sadly i think this can only happen to non belmonts as they dont have the natural ability to wield the whips full power
Keep in mind richter isn't using any item crashes, imagine how hard this fight would be with it
consider this is the whips memory im starting to think its a bit forgetful 🤔
Guys, I guess that's Richter Belmont from Castlevania series™.
jonathan: i thought this would be a simple Castlevania, but i didnt expect the Portrait of Ruin!
Human sized boss is always a pain in the ass. We got mirror Alucard and Richter in SoTN, Julius in Aria of Sorrow, and then this 😅

I would bet Sara's abbility to recall her previous owners across the Eras is the reason why Jonathan was able to fight a "memory" of Richter Belmont(as it is Sara's memory).
@@gaming826 Not that she has anything else to do in her spare time lol(just joking i do feel sorry for her).
Im here because Netflix
Play the game sometime
cool, the games are pretty fun too :) if you like richter then you should def play rondo of blood its a really good game
I first became a Richter fan because of Portrait of Ruin's Richter mode. Can't wait for Netflix.
Doesn't look as strategic as his SotN counterpart
in my opinion this is way harder than sotn richter,
then again sotn is on the easy side when it comes to the metroidvanias since alucard has so much stuff he can abuse
Is a memory, not Richter itself.
Stella: You seem to be in one piece.
My weeb ass: What??
lol gottem
Feels like a SSBU fight
cus theyve made the belmonts moveset very faithful in ultimate :P
I used Alucard Spear + Javelin (master). But still it was a hard battle.
i think this boss is difficult and fun with a variety of setups and this one sounds pretty good for it too
What is the power up hes using?
its called "offensive form" and its found in the buried chamber, i dont remember exactly where tho cus its been a while :P
what are you rocking on your armor and weapons my guy? you took 98 damage from a whip alone
its been like 6 years since i made this video so i cant be too sure but i think i was using holy mail and jet black whip
@@greenguyquint ok shit that long lol i just tackled the memory myself this morning and beat him as well
epic battle but without potion next time😄
fair enough tbh
Poor Richter is the punching bag of the series, redeeming himself in SOTN only to be a boss again in this game. He never meant any harm.
well he has good intentions in this one, with the whole not being controlled and all
i used the custard pie on him it actually works well
a lot of people say it works well but ive never tried it myself
IIRC you can cheese Richter throwing pies
yeah it seems to be a pretty popular strategy from the comments ive been getting
So Richter gets cream pie'd?
what whip is this?
its the "jet black whip" found in burnt paradise to the left of this room (the one with the circus on it)
how to you have the strenght?
i dont think i understood the question? if youre asking where you get the skill for jonathan its somewhere on the left side of burial chamber, its been a bit so i dont remember exactly
It would be cooler if this fight was against John Morris
while it would be pretty cool well thats kinda against the point of whips memory imo
Any prog fans recognize the reference to Tarkus in the song playing?
what
Starting at 1:27 and then even more so at 1:51, the synth part being played in the song is pretty much the exact same riff played in the first part of the song “Tarkus” by ELP
whats the story behind their fight ?
off the top of my head, jonathan has to fight the whip's memory in order to unleash its full power as hes not a belmont thus not naturally able to utilize its potential
Castlevania erotic violence
wrong castlevania you'll get em next time
@@greenguyquint it still baffles me that richter Belmont was in a pachinko game
👍
👍
BRO IT WAS HARD ASF BUT I DID IT ASWELL
good job 👍
Y lo curioso es que si tu le lanza un cuchillo Richter te lo devuelve y peor
Sólo fui por el látigo, tal vez fue una buena idea :P google tradutor
俺は急降下キック連発して無理やり倒した。
お主、やるなあ。ズルい攻撃一切使わず倒すとは
google translated: 私は日本語が話せないので、これは機械翻訳されています。ダイブキックは私にはあまり効果がありませんでしたが、鞭で戦うのはとても楽しかったです
My strategy to beating Richter was:
Stock up on High Potions
Have my STR increased
Beat the shit out of him using the Kaiser Knuckle
quite bold to just rush him down like that makes me kinda want to try it myself sometime
So did ANYONE ELSE just spike boot kick richter into oblivion instead of actually fighting him?
i tried that but it didnt work for me 😔 sounds funny af tho
@@greenguyquint worked for me, I just happened to have a LOT of healing items…
¿Alguien sabe como activar ese ataque de richter 2:22 ? lo estoy jugando en una pc usando el teclado de mi pc
si estás hablando del golpe cuando juegas Richter, ⬆⬅⬇➡Y/botón de látigo. si hablas del jefe es aleatorio
falo portugues e não espanhol então tomara que ta certo 👍
Es que al jugar con Richter, puedes activar un comando que el salta por detrás, y se mueve rapido sacando en su cuerpo una especie de cuchillos que se yo, pero brutal
@@blasterking7843 si esto no es lo que dije, vaya a este sitio y use Ctrl+F y escriba "Special Attack" para ver todos sus movimientos castlevania.fandom.com/wiki/Richter_Mode
What whip is that?
it's the Jet Black Whip found in the Burnt Paradise. highly recommended getting it before fighting Ritcher since he's weak against dark.
Stupid Green Guy, thanks! I guess i saw this 2 months late... oh well! Time to beat Richter finally!
the equipment doesnt make it so its 100% chance you win but it will make it easier. good luck!
!voz Tirando 100 de danos levou dois minutos para matar ele vi no video
foi dificil mano, mas pelo menos ganhei :P
La verdad como emperra q pusieran modo richter y maria en vez de los protas del Bloodlines
Q chucha pintaban Richter y maria alli? XDDDDDDD
👍?
I just farmed old axe armor and was easy
now thats a strategy i never heard of
@@greenguyquint that enemy drops two items
Vougle
And Ancient armor
Vougle have dark element damage and high attack
And Ancient armor makes you take the 10% of the Maxim HP with any attack so ritcher now is making the same damage than a skeleton
You have 10 hits so the holy water is the scariest attack now
You can use the moon walkers too cuz you get it at the first part of the game and improves your backwards dash but isn't necessary
And the best subweapon (without take the creampie)
Is the shuriken (mastered)
@@dush.1746 sounds pretty interessing. i will prob try that next time i play this game
@@dush.1746 Just tried your strategy for the first time, won within 20 seconds. Thanks
in my opinion they should have made Richter more agile and do somersaults and run everywhere, more similar to SotN, it seems that in PoR he is not excited about the fight or is he Is letting Jonathan win on purpose
i mean its the whips memory of richter its not like hes actually there
I believe that the game needed an ending if you overused the Vampire Killer
personally i think itd be a tad bit silly to punish players for unlocking and using a pretty good weapon but ig itd make sense storywise ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
I would like Jonathan Morris to be in smash...And Julius. Maybe three Belmonts would be to much. Ok just Jonathan. Or Nathan Graves? Hmm...
getting TWO belmonts when my most wanted character at the time was one of the belmonts was the hypest thing ever so im happy
@@greenguyquint yeah theres room for more. Like original movie trailer Sonic.
Damn my favourite belmont turned out to be useless
i dont know if you mean simon or richter but i dont really think either of them are useless really
@@greenguyquint I mean Richter
@@angelobelmont9379 It's a memory... JUST a memory.
