- Roxas fights are not counted as they fall under the encounter category more than the actual boss category. I did it this way so I could enjoy more of your comments telling me I "forgot" bosses without paying attention to the guidelines.

KH2 was ahead of it's time.
After completing KH3, I would love to finish KH2 again.....
And, it's ahead of KH3
I'm currently playing KH2 on Critical again because KH3 left me feeling kinda empty.
Chris the Chilled I just finished going through KH2. Way more challenging than KH3. Can’t believe how easily I got through KH3.
Correct

Lingering Will is a no brainier here, he's one of the few bosses (With the data fights) that forces you to learn and adapt instead of the 'Spam X and occasionally Cure' mentality that gets most players through the entire game.
It also literally beats “patience” into you, because there’s definitely people who are very impatient
I'm playing kh 2 on critical since I beat kh 1 on proud with only one dearh
No joke. It took me ~6 hours to beat him on regular with stats high enough to hit LW’s damage ceiling (80 across the board for Sora). Be that as it may, I still haven’t figured out how to damage the orbs when he locks out your regular attacks. I just spam magic or limit form and pray for the best. Can’t imagine how tough it is on Critical Mode

To dodge Xigbar's final ultimate. very simple. Tight circles. all day every day. just run around him like you're in the Kentucky Derby.
This. Some of the shots get alarmingly close, but just keep running circles around him and you'll just be able to run ahead of them.
Sophomaniac jones i glide in circles. Never got hit.
Yep. All it takes is circles.
I'm always confused when people say they have an issue dodging this move when I really just run around in a circle and have never gotten hit by it.
It is fairly easy to dodge once you circle around him. What made it hard for me was that I chose the Dream Sword instead of the Shield, and it's on Critical Mode. So once he catches me with just a single bullet during that desperation move of his, I'm done for.
Yes, I had no idea you'd get Once More sooner if you chose the Dream Shield up until I looked it up. And I thought Roxas was hard.
sephiroth is like a gazillion times harder when you're level 50ish and don't have glide. 10 year old me didn't really understand that glide is basically god mode
Yea, way back when I first played it on the ps2, I didn't really use drive forms so I was missing most of the mobility abilities (didn't even know they were a thing), as well as under leveled from skipping a lot of the trash fights in each world. I actually couldn't hit him to stop heartless angel, my only hope was elixers and beating him before they ran out. Sephiroth was certainly a chore back then, though, honestly still not as bad as kh1 version... lol
8 year old me cried swore on the life of his mom that he would beat sephiroth
he didnt
Learn how to guard againist and the fight is easy as hell
Being underleveled for Sephirot lmao he's so easy on LV1
And besides KH1 Sephirot was much much harder imo
10 year old me won this fight on a complete fluke after attempting it for like 3 hours. I didn’t know about mobility abilities and was under leveled. And when I finally go him down to 1 hp, I had no MP and had MP rage turned on, meaning I basically just had to mash x and pray to god I didn’t slip up until my MP came back so I could finally do a finisher.
I came back and fought him a year or two ago and distinctly remember thinking “wow this was a lot harder the first time”. He’s really not that bad, all things considered.
"What is this? Dark Souls? I didn't sign up to be ganked." 10/10 lmao'd
Isn’t KH kinda similar to Dark Souls anyway? Not like SUPER similar, but, like, a part of the same SUB Genre?
Lingering Will is like a Dark Souls boss in terms of Absurdity. I may have only played Twenty Minutes worth of Dark Souls I [Bloodborne included.] but I can tell that he would fit well in the Dark Souls Games.
@@sebastiankuolcrimson1622 Hell no he wouldn't be a dark souls boss trust me lingering will is waaaay to fucking quick for dark souls combat. Even if he was slowed down he would still be a pain in the ass.
@@retardopsll8389 eh, Lingering will is not that fast, For example take a look at Gael from Dark Souls 3, I'd say he is nearly as fast as Lingering Will, with 3 seperate phases, not to mention you are not as fast as you are in KH, with lots of animation cancels to get out of harms way.
@@Tommyvang187 well I finally fought him (legit 1 month ago lmao) but yeah... he's still to quick. He might be fast enough for Bloodborne though
Reflect is your best friend against Sephiroth's orbs lol
Funny thing when my friend and I first fought Xemnas in the end and had to deal with reflecting all the lasers, we didn't realize Sora was also able to reflect by pressing x so we were beating the crap out our triangle button trying to keep Sora alive with just Riku reflecting. XD
For your typical list making gamer RUclipsr, you deserve more subscribers.
You don't seem like your reading off a script, you just seem natural about it which is enjoyable
huh? it's been getting even more obvious every video that he's using a script. at least 3 times he stumbled over a word like he lost his place
jonnovision01 no, the point they were trying to make was that, at first glance he has a really natural tone to him. It feels like he's not using a script at all. But everyone knows he's using a script. People aren't stupid. You don't get jokes like that to flow out as quick as he does without one.
I know he uses a script, but he does it well enough that it sounds natural
He uses a script, but he wrote the script unlike many "list" channels which means it is more of a refresher/notecards than purely a script.
"Wow he doesnt try he deserve his fame"

“Roxas hits like a fucking truck on steroids” IM DEAD IM LOVING THE COMMENTARY
Best Kingdom hearts game imo not only in the gameplay but even the story was really good, mostly because Sora in this game is a badass, more mature than in the first one and more merciless
Agreed. Even as a kid I loved that Sora fights dirty in the reaction commands
Agreed but the voice acting for some worlds was so bad lol
@@howdoyouevenknow6526I AGREE! I miss KH1 Leon (David Boreanaz)
I destroyed first Xemnas in one try and only healed twice but it took me like an hour to beat Xigbar on critical. Lol
I only died once against Xemnas my first time playing during the mandatory Riku segment rescuing Sora, because my first time I couldn't make it to Sora in time.
i don't have too much trouble with xigbar these days, but rewatching this video makes me feel like i'm 10 again getting my older siblings to fight the boss battles for me. he makes xigbar look like a cakewalk. and i always wondered why the reaction commands in the first xemnas fight don't do anything, i feel like an idiot
With crit Xigbar, I just kind of spammed triangle and never beat him.
Xigbar on critical was easy for me then data xigbar on critical happened and well.....yeah

Forgot to put next to lingering will terra since that's who that is
Lingering Will, Final Xemnas and Sephiroth are all shit compared to the real hardest boss that's impossible to defeat in KH2. Ursula.
Yes. Because people who constantly spam only, X,square, or triangle will surely fail.
Terminal Sarcasm ITS NOT OVER UNTIL URSULA HAS WOOOOOON
Joshua Strauss nightmares when I was 12 so many nightmares 😂
The only reason why Ursula is hard is because she is in the hardest area of the game, not just because it’s hard to beat, it’s just because Sora has the voice of my ass after a big dinner from Taco Bell. Singing voice I mean
I did not have a lot of FINNY FUN fighting that bitch!
Lmao, I totally never knew you could actually do damage to Xemnas 1. I always hit triangle and just assumed the intense staredown lowered his morale. Or maybe produced sexual tension. Or both.
LOL
Xemnas rearranged is Mansex afterall
JDpwner22 xD
Morale no sexual tension yes
@@xale8702 I'm sure plenty of people wanted to rearrange Xemnas too.

STILL. WAITING.
With final Xemnas I actually missed the timing on the reflect spam section and got hit by every single laser and lived it, was terrifying to watch 😂
Who else wants that Jack Sparrow/Sora theory vid!
Ya know I think I sorta get it. Basically there's the line where Goofy says "Maybe some day Jack could actually wield the keyblade because him and Sora are a lot alike" and then in Birth by Sleep in Destiny Islands, Riku says "My friend's dad takes us out here on a boat. Pretty sure that's about it though.
Brian McDonnell I
Brian McDonnell it’s possible now
Jack IS in kh3. That pretty much confirms the theory
Niceri98
Their comment was made over a year before it was confirmed.
With Xaldin as an 8 year old I thought you were supposed to lose to him because of the King Mickey thing.
I had recently come across how op Goofy's knocksmash was in the original a short time before Xaldin so he wasn't a problem for me. 1.Knocksmash
2. Pop 2 ethers
3. Repeat twice/ 3 times at the most for that last bit of remaining hp because overkill is INVIGORATING! 😈
But now Knocksmash suckss so you actually have to fight him how SA describes in the video.
16:53 somehow I managed to dodge this by just running in circles but got hit sometimes by getting caught on Donald’s dead body
yep, that's how you're supposed to dodge it, i found it by accident when i was recovering MP and tried to escape that damn attack section.
Same, he always kill me on that part until I figured out I just needed to run in circles
22:20 lmao this dude refuses to use reflect
Who needs reflect when you have magnet
Who need Reflect when you have Vicinity Break
Yeah I sometimes have trouble triggering that, it’s handy as hell but when you only do it half the time the inconsistency starts to get frustrating.
Reflect is for wimps.

The non-optional Xaldin boss was one that I genuinely enjoyed. Granted, I came prepared and was aware that I needed to grab his jump move from him in order to get the biggest edge. PS - grabbing jump and spamming the shit out of it is a lot of fun.
Here's a psa for you guys: Equip blizzard resistance for demyx, I know most of his attacks are water but they technically count as "Blizzard Damage" which can help when you have a ton of blizz-resistance
He also takes huge damage from fire magic for the exact same reason

Xigbars ultimate attack can be easily dodged by continuously running around the platform in a circular motion.
16:55 For some reason I would always go Anti form against Xigbar. This fight was the most useful time for that form, I could outrun EVERYTHING!!! 🤣
“Dont give me that simile bullshit that word doesn’t need to exist” as an English Major I haven’t laughed so hard. That statement is true af.
You can actually avoid Xigbar's ultimate attack 16:54 simply by running in circle on the platform, but keep in mind that your own companions can obstruct your way if they are knocked out.
Maybe Xemnas IS sitting on the toilet. Sora and co. ambushed him while he was on the crapper! No wonder he wasn't putting up much of a fight!
edit: OH GOD! THAT SCREAM HE MAKES AT THE END. HE IS!

Old timey Pete is definitely the easiest boss in the game.
He is much easier in the Hades Cup since you are much stronger and have a lot more options to kick his ass.
Benny Boi can he even be classified as a boss? He’s so easy you don’t even take damage if you don’t move
What are you talking about? He's harder than Lingering Will, for crying out loud.

After cheating on X during the Xaldin fight, X filed for a divorce. I can no longer attack, please help me
I literally stopped playing this game because of the dance water dance guy.
I know he was hard, I even stopped playing for a while because I was stuck but then I finally beat him then I beat the whole game. So keep trying, he's not the hardest member of those guys. That would be the guy in Beauty and the Beast in my opinion.
I deleted my save file i was so mad regreted it the next day
Also i beat him and lost a little aftwr with the final fantasy guys saw i had to re fight him thats why i deleted it lol but ended up replaying and beat the game
I almost did too. He was annoying
Me too. I went a period of 2 years where I would occasionally come back and try again. I even tried using an Action Replay to cheat him, and it didn't help. I did eventually beat him, though, fueled by calm rage.
10:17 If you fail, I don't know what happen but it's probably unfortunate, so don't fail.
That's my well sought-after advice. -Albino 2k17
when you fail you turn into a dice again. i experinced that because i didnt know how to stop the spinners
...so, did we ever get that "Jack Sparrow is Sora's dad" theory video? Because honestly, that sounds like a fun video.
Also, in my opinion, Scar's not hard, but my main problem with him is the fact that the controls for Lion Sora feel like your trying to control a car with wheels made of ice on a road made of slicked-up rubber, and you were only able to turn by slamming the steering wheel all the way to either side.
Lmao
Running is your savior of the fight when scar starts running with darkness, I either do a constant drift loop the entire time or I charge run
The Chinese Parade float is a Chinese Parade float. I found that way funnier then I should have. 😂

"Didn't change his belt more than Squall Leonhart in a hot topic" That was way too good, I love my FFVIII boy like no tomorrow but damn is his edge sharper than his gunblade.

you found it. this is your youtube niche. Keep doing boss lists for any game
Wait.... You mean Jack Sparrow isn't actually confirmed to be Sora's dad? I thought it was pretty obvious
Sore Wa Chigau Zo You mean Captain Jack Sparrow right?
Nope, he's just a very very discount Johnny Depp
ShadowAntix same voice actor of tidus from ffx, ratchet, and fukin Johnny test
“Do you like tanking unreactable damage?”
I feel like that just describes all the data organization bosses.
I like to think that Sora learned formchanges from the Lingering Will because that is essentially what he is doing when you fight him.
Glitched final Xemnas on level 1 was actually the worst thing ever. A limit into an elixir just to make sure you don’t die right off the bat xD
“Oh shit what if I accidentally drop my controller or fling it against a wall?”
Jesus Christ I couldn’t breathe. So fucking accurate
Note on dodging Xigbar's Ultimate: Pick a corner and start running in a circle, similar to how the clip shows at 16:48 - the bullets will fire where you were just a moment before, allowing you to run around the entire ult
The amount of creativity when it came to the bosses and how the environment is designed around them is insane, I can't remember one Kh3 boss fight but every kh2 is imbedded in my brain
You didnt have anything better to do in past. now you play kh3 for story.
You are waste of time

I've beaten Xemnas many times in Kingdom Hearts 2 so I agree that Sephiroth was way harder, I didn't think Xemnas was that hard. Sephiroth was a pain in the ass.

After replaying this game last week I was reminded why Birth by Sleep is my favorite kh game. It doesn't have dumb mini games and rules for certain fights
Yeah instead it has boring combat and non staggering spammy bosses
"What is this darks souls? I didn't sign up to be ganked." OMG 🤣🤣🤣 Your humor made me watch this entire video. You have earned my like and sub.
The hydras back part really got me 😂
for the lingering will's ultimate attack, to get through the final bit of it, wait for him to teleport. the second you hear him teleport back, lock on and then instantly spam guard, you are permanently invincible whilst doing it because there are so many swings in quick succession that you never let guard stop, then the moment the final hit connects, begin your combo
Thank you for making this!!! It’s the first video to make me genuinely laugh in a while
Xigbar is a square masher's wet dream, guard and reflect his shots right back at him, once I realized that, didn't even break a sweat lol
To those who says, "Xaldin is the Hardest non-optional boss"
Roxas would like to know your location.
Jackson Sloss I actually had such an easy time with Roxas. Xaldin was by far the worst member to deal with.
Ricky Lamarine Well it would be a lot easier if you manage to take his Keyblades away from him often. But towards the end he was literally throwing everything he had at you
Ricky Lamarine Also I’m not trying to undermine Xaldin’s difficulty. He’s definitely right up there with Roxas. But when I can summarize Xaldin’s battle as basically block and dodge his attacks and mash triangle, and I would call Roxas’s an extremely high paced boss battle where you of take advantage small openings and counter to the best of your abilities. I would say Roxas is more skill intensive, Since your pretty close to the endgame it makes sense too. The game basically says to take all the Abilities and strategies you’ve learned up to this point and use them well. Because other than the clash QTE that allows to use his Keyblades for a short while, most of the battle boils down to pure skill and maybe a little trial and error. And I love the battle because of it.
@@ultrafox4005 i'll make it easy for you:
How do deal with roxas: Memorize his patterns, when the battle starts immediately press square 2 or 3 times
first roxas combo: guard 3 times like this: Guard, Guard, wait a bit, Guard, that will create an opening for you to combo him, otherwise, you can dodge the combo and wait for his finisher (the part where he retreats, and when he dashs back to you), just guard. simple as that
Aerial circling attack: this one is a little trick, you can either guard, which is hard because if you get combo'd by him, you will most likely get hit, so the best option is to use reflect, even if you can't create an opening to combo him, you at least won't take damage
The Energy balls attack (or whatever it is called), this one is another one people tend to miss, specially during the encounter during the story, you can't lock on him during this attack, otherwise you will get hit easily. how to deal with the attack: go to the edge of the arena and spam dodge roll, remember: DON'T LOCK ON HIM DURING THIS MOVE! otherwise you will miss and get damaged a lot. if you're playing the data version of the fight, you can easily avoid this by gliding around him.
Second phase:
Roxas first Combo with Pillars: same way you did during the first fight, but i recommend dodge rolling this time and wait for his combo finisher (the retreat then dash like i said previously) and guard. that's the best and most reliable way to combo him.
Aerial circling with Pillars: Reflect.
Reaction Command: ALWAYS put your cursor on the second slot, especially on the data battle, because you can have enough time to select the first or the third one if it doesn't appear on the second slot. that way you have less chances of missing the reaction command, and even if it appears on the 4th slot, if you're quick, you can choose it, when you take his 2 keyblades, wait for the cutscene where Sora "calls" his 2 keyblades at him to end, and IMEDIATELY dodge roll to roxas direction! if you try to attack him instead of dodge rolling towards him, the pillars will hit you and he will combo you, mostly killing you in the process, but if you dodge roll at him first, the invencibility frames from the dodge roll will prevent you from taking damage, after you dodge rolled, combo him with his two keyblades, but watch out for the pillars, they can hit you and ruin your combo.
Roxas Desperation Move: He will use 2 spinning keyblades or whatever and charge at you, you can either glide away, dodge roll or reflect, but don't try to attack him back until the move is over, even if you get hit, and DON'T get caught too much on it, otherwise you're done.
after that LONG tutorial, let's go to Xaldin, and why he's more difficulty than Roxas (after all, Roxas is number 13 and Xaldin 3)
When the battle Starts: 2 options: Guard his first 3 energy attacks (if you're playing the data battle he always start with this move, on the storymode he can either use Spear Dash or the Spear Long ground Attack) anyways the second way to deal with the Energy attack is to simply run towards him and do 4 aerial attacks (don't try to combo him otherwise he will make his wind shield and damage you during your combo, 4 is the limit before the shield appears, so be quick and not greedy!)
the Spear dash move: When he starts charging at you guard then quickly press the Triangle or Y button to use the reaction command "Learn", on data battle you have to mostly rely on the learn command, otherwise you won't win the battle. after he does the Spear dash he will change it to the Long 6 spear ground Move (the one where he turns around and try to hit your feet with the 6 spears), this move can't be blocked except if you use reflect, but it's better if you jump and, while in midair, smash Triangle or Y to stock up learn commands
Spear Dive move: This one is tricky and annoying to dodge, but i found out by solaam that the best way to dodge it is by Using Glide and rotating until the move is over, while you're gliding, you can try to get learn commands, since you will have a small window of time to stock learn commands during this glide rotating sequence, it's annoying, but it works, when you get more than 7 jump commands, just use it at Xaldin and you're fine
Dragon move( the one where he yells "SORA!" before riding a giant dragon): easy to dodge actually, you can either do a perfectly timed dodge roll, reflect, or simply stay away from where the dragon is, you just can't be on his way during his attack, but since he gives you time to run away, all you have to do is to pay attention where the dragon will be in the arena and run away from his position, as simple as that.
Reaction command: The Learn Command, i already explained that, stock them up to 9 and then spam it when he stops attacking, you always stun him after sucessfully hitting him with a jump command so all you have to do is to wait for him to finish an attack then immediately use it.
Desesperation Move(another annoying one, and this one is responsible for most deaths on Data battle): he will start teleporting and attacking you, the time you have to react to his attacks are so little that, if you get hit and get combo'd, you're dead. not even roxas had less time to react as this guy. the only reliable way i found searching was using Magnega when he finishs teleporting, but you have to be really quick AND have enough MP to spam magnega, if your mp is recharging, you better use ethers or give up hope. try to not get hit by his attacks, it's really frustating to miss, but if you manage to interrupt his attacks 2 times, he will change it to Spear Dive move, so Glide Rotate, quickly stock jump commands, then finish him off once for all!
For Data Xaldin, the Learn command is a must! but for the regular story one, you can actually win the battle without depending of it too much, but remember: learn Command is the best way to deal with Xaldin on both case scenarios!
to sucessfully defeat xaldin, you are supposed to stock AT LEAST 7 - 9 Jump commands, anything bellow Seven is untrusting and will give you hard times with this guy, after you got 7 - 9 commands, Spam Jump until you run out of Jump commands, after the first health bars are taken down, Xaldin will do the Spear dive move, this one is trick and annoying move to dodge on Critical mode, because if you get caught, you can't break free from the spears comming out of the air, and it will simply kill you even with Once more and Second chance, so if you're doing a data battle run, DO NOT GET HIT BY THE SPEAR DIVE!. The DM is by far the worst part of the battle, trying to not get hit with so little time to cast Magnega, and sometimes Magnega won't even stops him! you have to be really lucky to use 2 magnegas in a row and sucessfully stop him so he can change to spear dive.
Final notes: Xaldin > Roxas
Roxas Battle is hard because he comes out of nowhere and plays similar to how you play, and since he plays similar to how you play that means on the first plays you will get combo'd a lot, and die in the process since you're not used to fight someone that fight like you! Roxas battle is perfect, it has the sad and Difficulty vibe mixed together, which makes you feel really sad and happy for beating him after many tries. but difficulty isn't just applied to the story bosses, after all, Xaldin is an early boss so he has less HP and is Less agressive overall, but the Data battles.... GOD DAMN, Xaldin will make you lose not because you didn't know which move he was going to do, but because you didn't have enough time to react to it, really the real part i died at roxas battle was during his DM move, but soon i learned his patterns and beat him without needing to grind or anything, but for xaldin... i had to max out my stats for that guy. his DM is worse than roxas DM, on Data battle he WON'T TAKE A BRAKE, Roxas at least would use combo finishers and give you a small time to react, but Xaldin won't stop rushing towards you even if you stay away from him, he's truly annoying and beating his data version on Critical is a good archievment.. Roxas still a cool fight too, but not as tough as Xaldin fight, especially when you're under leveled.
Which one was Xaldin again? Lol, all the Organization is easy except Roxas. I actually had to grind for him, then the rest of the game was cake
I love your dry humor, your sarcasm, I'm so grateful my recommendeds did me a solid for once! Subbed!
I've beaten KH2.5 on PS3 (Critical mode) but Xaldin always wrecked my ass. I just started a playthrough on PS4 and your advice made the fight so easy and fun! You rock!
NOTE: On the Sephiroth Battle.. you can get rid of his Shadow Flare using Reflect spell. Don't know if you know.. but it's easier to defeat Sephiroth using that spell and ONLY that spell. No other spell works.
Lightning Farron in fm the move where sora spirals on the ground clears the spheres out as well
Almost any form of attack can get rid of those spheres. Just remember this, Reflect CAN damage Sephiroth. You can even block most of his moves... except for Heartless Angel. Just be sure to save that small MP for the heal in case you do need it.
Lightning Farron i think he knew but his rule was not to use reflect like he said in the beginning of the video
I love the lingering will. even when I die fighting it, I can't help but smile because it's so hype. Never have I encountered an enemy that can turn a sword into a rocket launcher. Gives me the willies. The good willies. XD
shadow hunter02 that's how I feel with games like this and everytime i die in any game
shadow hunter02 he's the most easiest boss in kh history just equip mega elixirs and use Donald's flare command which gives you invincibility no matter what attack he uses I beat him on my first try
suuuurrre
That's because he's an extremely well designed boss.
His attacks hit hard, but will rarely insta-kill you unless you're grossly underlevelled. Most of his attacks are blockable and have just enough of a tell for you to react, and the ones that don't are designed to punish you for pushing the offense too hard. Every time you fight him, his moveset and patterns are randomized, meaning you always have to be on your toes.
He's the opposite of the BBS/3D bosses. Instead of punishing you for wanting to use your full moveset and forcing each battle into a pattern of "dodge roll forever, hit them once or twice with a very specific command, then dodge roll again," Lingering Will demands a mastery of everything you've learned. Want to rush him down, you absolutely can. Wanna stick to magic? That works too. Summons, Limits, Drives? All perfectly viable options. He can be blocked, he can be comboed, and with every defeat, you know he can be beaten if you just push yourself a bit further.

22:30 to answer your question.
When sephiroth summons the dark orbs. I always used deflect barrier.
The magic barrier that you use to protect yourself can actually deflect the orbs away and if sephiroth decides to teleport into uppercut you in the air. You can deal extra damage to him.
If you level your gut up to level 99 and get your power boost up to 150 AK. You can actually take him down real fast.
On easy mode I once leveled up my guy to level 99 and got my power boost up to 150 and toke down 5 health bars within 1 combo assault.
I love this guys sense of humour and just the way he talks, just amazing man. I’m in love
Hilarious commentary, great content, 10/10 amazing
this dude sounds like bo burnham
john mulaney
A. Wiggins ikr haha
14:01 looking like Daigo v Justin. Nobody has said this but you are kicking ass at these fights.
Awesome content keep it up 👍
Very amusing and informative video. I did not expect to laugh as much as I did
"The devourer of children devours the children"
Thanks,i didn't know that!
13:40 The only reason why I remember him is because for some reason, Mickey saves me more times consecutively in this fight than in all of EVER in the whole game. I don't know if I godly luck or that the fight had an increased chance of Mickey showing up.
Mickey will save you infinitely during the Xaldin fight. There are a few other fights in the game that have Mickey show up and save you, but I don’t remember who they were.
@@yaboi2500 what are you talking about? Mickey wont Safe you infinitely
24:10
I remember dying to that move because I was spamming only triangle instead of X and triangle
I did that when I was little, took me til the third try to realize it wasn't just a normal reaction command
I feel like this is the first KH related video I’ve ever seen that has good humor
I have a way of dodge Xigbar Ultimate attack and it easy. The key is NOT to dodge. People tell you to run circles around him but if you try this normal you will screw it up a lot. The problem is that people don't tell you the most important part. You need to hold BOTH sticks right or left. The camera will then pan to Sora side. This will make Sora Run in a perfect circle.
Hey Sunburned, are you gonna be doing more of these boss rankings for other games? I really enjoy them and they never fail to make me laugh!
The answer is yes.
They are by far the most popular videos on his channel and as he said in the KH 1.5 boss ranking intro for some reason RUclips recommends these boss ranking videos to more people than playthrough videos so they are a faster way to grow his channel.
That and he considers himself a comedian (which he is) and these are great ways to bring that to his channel.
Your humour is subtle and I love it
I just found this channel today, and am immediately a fan
