Why were people complaining about Danger Strats? That's like complaining someone is using a Legendary against the Champion in Pokemon. Like no sh*t, some people want to use whats probably the most effective strategy
@@duskgaming18 It's less like using Legendary Pokemon and more like grinding up to level 99 before fighting the Champion. Yes you can do it but it's not how most players are going to play, plus it makes the fight a joke
I remember seeing a comment a long time ago that said “I wish you could have an optional fight against Prince Mush, it could’ve been like the dojo in the first game” They got their wish
tbh I was sad because I got spoiled about this boss fight on youtube recommendation. but after I watched how overpowered he is... I don't mind the spoiler because I don't think I can beat him lol
He's basically a younger version of The Master from Paper Mario 64. It's stated in the first game that The Master and Tayce T. are brother and siste, and Zess T. is implied to be their sister too, so maybe Prince Mush and Jolene are The Master's grandkids.
In one of the RDM issues, it said that a Gltiz Pit talent scout approached Zess T. . There's a chance that Zess T. would've fought Prince Mush, her nephew! 😂
It gets juicier. "About that Zess T. near Rogueport's main square... I've heard her sister is a really good cook as well. She married and moved away a long time ago, but I'd love to try her cooking..." - Wonka, the information seller. So it is implied Tayce T used to live in Rogueport before moving into Toadtown. Maybe The Master used to live in Rogueport too and left with Tayce T? Which could tie in Prince Mush being from Rogueport too "You know Zess T., in the square, I'm sure. The girl with the mean cooking talent. Well, she's got a secret recipe called the Couple's Cake. Cute name, huh? To make it, she needs a Snow Bunny and Spicy Soup... If you bring her both, she'll make it, at least that's what ol' Wonky hears. By the way, a Snow Bunny is made from a Golden Leaf and an Ice Storm and Spicy Soup is made from a Fire Flower and a Dried Bouquet. Even so, I hear that this recipe really reminds her of her late husband... So she doesn't make it for just anybody. I wonder how she feels about you?" - Wonka So Zess T. used to have a husband too. Also as Blissful said with the RDM issues, "In a shocking series of event today, local authorities report that Zess T. (age 55) delivered a left hook to the jaw of gadabout Flavio (age 25) late this very afternoon. Our investigation has revealed that the cause of the feisty fisticuffs may have been Zess T.'s anger that a shipment of gourmet ingredients spoiled on the dock because Flavio had held up the dock crew with a marathon two-day tale of high-seas adventure. While Flavio is recovering from temporary memory loss, Zess T. has already been approached by a Glitz Pit talent scout, Don Goombatti. "I think the kid's got spunk. We'll take the world by storm!" said Goombatti." I assume The Master's real name is something "T." And everyone in the family is super strong considering what Zess T. did. I had a fun theory that Zess T. are Jolene and Mush's mom, so it could tie with all of them are in Rogueport. However it is revealed that Zess T. is a bit old. So it would require Mush and Jolene to be grown adults or that Toads age differently. or that being tight with numbers, Zess T is a grandmother? Maybe either Master, Tayce T or a 4th sibling are the parents/grandparents, but something separated them from Jolene and Mush.
@@fissilewhistle Captain Toad and Toadette can lift up Turnips more than twice their size without much effort so I would assume that Toads are naturally powerful.
I never learned to superguard on the GameCube. Now I hit it about 1 in 4 times 1 in 3 with the simplifier badge. But it just about a frame perfect pro gamer move
Not exactly you can actually hit him regardless its just depends on his stance If he jumps around that means that he can be only hit by jump attacks but not by front attacks like a hammer for exampel. And if he is sliding on the grounds its basically the same but reversed.
Not really you can literally shell mario all the time and buff his atk or spam life shroom Edit pretty lucky and I think its fortuna the one where your dodge rate gets higher on 5 hp should also make it very easy
*Dragons, spirits, shadows, robots, a clown in a bed sheet, Bowser, and the soul of a demonic queen* Mario: *laughs* *A Super Saiyan 2 Toad* Mario: "Finally, a worthy opponent to test my power!"
Y’all forgetting something crazy. Taking from the tattle page, Goombella says “You’d never guess he’s been kept away from fighting for so long!” Implying that this is not him at his best He is rusty in this fight I fear a prime Prince Mush
and You can’t argue “He just kept training” cause he was literally trapped and being drained of his strength by Grubba until Mario showed up. Imagine Prince Mush vs. the Dojo Master from the 1st game, and both not in their primes either 😮
Took me until after I beat him to realize this, but during the beginning parts of the fight, when he sways left and right, that means you have to use grounded attacks like the hammer. When he bounces up and down, you have to use air attacks like jumps. But at the end you still have to nail superguards, no way around that. Dude will even block supernova if you don’t.
This more than anything gives me hope Nintendo will develop a proper Paper Mario RPG sequel. This fight is entirely new content that proves Nintendo knows how to make fun turn based gameplay. I hope TTYD Remake sells well and show Nintendo more of this is what we want.
well I just now fought Mush. I used a Charge and Goombella's Rally Wink strat and with some reflexes and some support from Power Lift and the Power Punch Yogurt it can work to basically OHKO Mush with the Power Bounce Badge
Remake Devteam be like: "Oh, we've seen what you've been doing in those challenge romhacks. That's what you want, huh? Well then, *_you're gonna get it."_*
Dude only got 1 more attack than hooktail before the frog noise nation attacked; he became the people's chance through 100% skill (which i guess can't be succed)
He spent it all on extra turns and buffs, not actually increasing his skill. It’s true to his character, that he’ll cheat without actually taking the steps toward being a real champion.
I'm beginning to expect that Mush and Jolene are descendants to the hero toad that stopped the Shadow Queen long ago. To be fair, it makes you wonder what other descendants the heroes had. We know a toad, boo, goomba and koopa. So i guess it's anyones guess.
Dude, given that Goombella states that he’s still a powerhouse after being kept away from fighting for so long, there’s a chance that this guy is _possibly rusty._ I’m terrified to imagine what he’d be like if he was at his best
"You aren't dealing with the average Toad anymore Mario. I have risen beyond and become the legend you fear. I am a Super Toad!" -Prince Mush before dealing 109 damage in one turn
So he's pretty much Dojo Toad but way more terrifying but you fight him under better circumstances Also it's way too funny that we have another toad that can easily handle Bowser and can one shot a dragon
The scary part is that you _cannot_ cheese this fight with stuff like Boo Capes and Repel Flags, because you can ONLY drop his stance with Superguard once he gets low health. Even Life Shrooms only do so much, because they'll activate if your partner dies, too, meaning you'll burn through them.
Well, not exactly. Remember Prince Mush fights fair, and Bowser NEVER fights fair, and when you have numbers, you really think they would be able to stop wave after wave after wave after wave of koopa troopas, goombas, ninjis, and magikoopas?
@@smanly3274 His Tattle quite literally confirms he has a fear of cakes so all Bowser has to do is pull up in a cake suit and they'll all be shitting bricks.
@@theking8347That’s actually untrue. It was a rumor, but nothing has substantiated that rumor. Basically, one guy claimed it on the CRF and the Super Mario Wiki, and said guy was a mod for many years, so no one fact-checked him. However, Did You Know Gaming investigated it, and found no evidence of it.
Goombella: “Prince Mush doesn’t use any dirty tricks.” Prince Mush: (Dodges attacks. Has a combo that does insane damage per hit. Illusion decoys.) Yeah… REAAL clean fight, Mush.
And according to Goombella’s tattle entry this isn’t even his prime strength during this fight he is rusty…so if this is him while rusty tf was he like in his prime?
Prince Mush strikes me as a very naive person, so Grubba likely just tricked him into getting into the machine of his own volition and drained him before he could retaliate.
You have no idea how happy this makes me. I always wished you could fight Prince Mush in the original, so you can imagine my reaction when I saw you *can* take him on in the remake. And they made him *freaking epic.*
@@theking8347 yeah she's actually pretty damn good in this fight relatively speaking of course it doesn't really matter if you do the super guards that it wants you to do, as it removes all of his defense after landing one
Good lord this fight is so good it made me wanna cry. Like 3D Culex, it reads you like an open book and subverts optimal strats to really keep you on your toes, while every other boss just stands there and helplessly take the harshest beating you could give. Prince Mush single-handedly elevated my overall enjoyment on TTYD, and this is coming from someone who likes Paper Mario 64 more.
I vaguely remember as a kid the original game talking up Prince Mush, him being the previous champion and all, and being disappointed you couldn’t actually battle him. It’s nice to know this remake is fulfilling a childhood dream of mine. This is absolutely nuts! 5:40 my freaking jaw dropped to the floor when I first saw that, then I saw 6:23, and Jesus, Joseph, and Mary... I’m at a loss for words.
ain't no way Prince Mush legit got da Mario 64 Romhack(DE/Master Quest) Super Saiyan 3 Master 4 5x combo and does 21 damage prob due to the Fiery spirit within him flaring up 🤔 he even got Pm64 Master Quest/DSE Lee Clones at 6:30 even more surprisingly via 6:23 he does a bit over 100 damage with the 5 flying rider kicks. this makes him the most damaging enemy in the entire paper mario series, next to Whacka absolute Cinema 🤲
I think his full 100-damage combo actually technically makes him even more powerful than even Master 4. I can't think of a Master Quest enemy that can do more damage on 1 turn.
I remembered that this guy existed yesterday, and that we never fought him in the original game. And once I remembered, I had a gut feeling he’d be exactly like The Master from the N64 Paper Mario. Oh, how little did I realize how RIGHT I was.
Funny enough, I had a chocolate cake in my inventory for this fight and actually tried that to see if he'd comment or react to it. I was sadly disappointed.
He’s not an end of game boss. You can fight him at any point after you take care of a trouble for Jolene and wait for messages from both her and Prince Mush, and then you can come back to the Glitz Pit anytime to challenge him. You probably should complete your comeback in the Glitz Pit before doing so, just to get it out of the way.
@@Cristian-jb1rs still the combo gets so weak if you increase your defense, with defense plus badges i think it's better to take 5, 4, 3 damage (Master combo) instead of 21, 20, 19, 18 (Mush combo) Also if you equip zaptap instead of defense plus you get 7 damage instead of 24
This has to be one of the hardest boss fights I’ve done in this game. He’s ridiculously strong, and can only be defeated using superguards. Also, he has an attack in his third stance that deals over 100 damage in one turn. That’s crazy. I managed to beat him, somehow, but wow, talk about insane.
Prince Mush is a mix of The Master from Paper Mario 64 and Kazuma Kiryu from Yakuza. He changes stances like Kiryu and punches like The Master. Loved this secret boss that they added ✊🏿
I'm glad that they went and added stuff for your return at the Glitz Pit! I remember being extremely disappointed in the original, back when Rock Hawk was all like "oh yeah, i'm gonna train SUPER hard for your return Gonzales!" but he's gained absolutely no strength at all since your last match and you just stomp him even harder
Wow! Prince Mush really can kick butt and I friggin' love it. Seriously, we need more Toad characters, like him and Toad from the Mario movie. Toads have always been a run-of-the-mill supporting characters in Mario, and I want some more to take spotlight in character and story.
You gotta admit though, if Mario didn't pack literal self revives he would be cooked too. Even outside of that, bro put up one hell of a fight, gotta give him props for giving someone like Mario an actual challenge
@@omegamyee5592and remember as Goombella states he hasn’t fought in a long time meaning he’s probably rusty so that means that he was even stronger when became champion
For the last 20 years I always wondered what it would’ve been like to fight Prince Mush & I’m glad I lived long enough to see it. Definitely a worthy fight for the first champion of the Glitz Pit.
This is a fight that always felt like it was meant to be in the original game, glad they finally gave us the chance to fight him (not to mention he lives up to the hype of being the first Glitz Pit Champion)!
Yeah... About that... Mush is immune to all elementals. (at least as far as I could tell, explosion was the only attack type I found that could even damage him, forget statuses none of them worked for me.)
Yeah the devs decided to just hard counter any shenanigans like that by just making Prince Mush immune to ALL ELEMENTS so you can’t zap trap or anything except non elemental attacks pretty much fully getting rid of some partners as options for the fight as well
Zap Tap is a thing, but Prince Mush is completely immune to it. He seems immune to just about all elementals, so he can’t be burned, frozen, or hit by explosions, for instance.
While I don't know for this battle, the Battle Master music just doesn't change, so i'm guessing it's the same here. Or it plays the standard event battle music.
I felt legitimately cheated in the original game without this guy being an optional boss. Jolene sends the email that he's going to be fighting again, only for that to never happen. You just don't do that. I'm sorry. So glad to see that fixed.
I saw the notice to fight this guy and though "oh, OK, probably pretty decent" and then I saw the tattle log and went "oh CRUD I am not prepared for this" I was right. You live or die on Superguard mastery which I have become pretty sloppy in my much older age. He kicked my butt for the first time in 15 years. And that was the time I could actually pull off Peril Strats well.
I remember going straight to Mush after beating the Pit of 100 Trials the first time. My strategy goes like this: I have Mario charge up for like, 5-10 turns, playing on the defensive all the while. Then I let Mario rip with Power Bounce. It worked on Bonetail, so this shouldn't be too different, I thought. Then I witnessed Mush has a defense of 6, and him brutalizing Goombella after she tattled him, which was certainly one hell of an opening. So I immediately put Flurrie on dodge buff duty. I let the party attack Mush to figure out his movements. When the time is right, I let Jumpman do what he does best... but I missed an input on the fifth jump, somehow leaving Mush with exactly 1 HP. And when he prepared to kick Mario in the face, I managed to land the superguard, while trying to figure out when was the exact frame I needed to hit B. I think I managed to beat Mush in the coolest way possible on accident.
Just a reminder that Toad has a higher power stat than Mario in Super Mario Bros 2. With the right training and some courage, any Toad could be like Mush.
Remember, Prince Mush was really rusty in this fight, and he was still giving Mario a hard time, even with his allies by his side. That's actually impressive when you think about it.
It’s even crazier when you realize that grubba use this machine to drain prints, mushes energy meaning that not only was he rusty. He was also weakened.
@jasondobbins9735 so he was both rusty and weakened in this fight, and he's still a powerhouse?! Just imagine him at what he was like in his prime and in a healthy state. Scary stuff
I appreciate Prince Mush’s fight a lot and can settle for the bonus championship right here. However, I would still love it if we could have Luigi be a post game opponent in this ring, and as the toughest boss battle in the game bar none! Just as Mario has his swappable companions, Luigi shall also have his own adventure partners (regardless how they feel about him lol) fight alongside him as well. And whereas Mario uses hammers, I want to see Luigi throwing boomerangs. Just a few pipe dreams…
It's amazing how you do all those perfect superguards in the beginning. When I went up against Prince Mush, I needed a *WHOLE* lot of Life Mushrooms because Mush's Super Attack kept knocking me out. It took me three tries and the Ruby Crystal Star to finally defeat Mush.
Friendly advice, you ought to make your title something that isn't a huge spoiler for people who haven't gotten to play the game yet. I just opened RUclips and this was the 1st thing that popped up. Now I've been spoiled for something that I'd have liked to have been surprised at.
That's all on you. You should already know better by now that you WILL get spoiled on any game that recently came out (hell even before it comes out thanks to leaks) when going on ANY social media.
@@AdaTheWatcherHe does the one thing that no other character in this game does: dodge. If no one in the game, not even Mario can dodge, then I consider dodging to be cheating.
I’ve seen WAY more BS fights than that one tbh. Keep an eye on his stance. If he’s jumping, jumps can hit him. If he’s shuffling, hammers can hurt him.
Prince mush? I also beat on my first go, but again, I came PREPARED for the worst, much like with Whacka, I had all hp plus badges i could find on, fp plus badges, power plus badges, all or nothing, jumpman, defense plus badges, damage dodge, lucky day, so that i could do 16 damage with a perfect spring jump each turn, and when he starts becoming impossible to hurt, you *HAVE* to superguard or die trying, I thankfully managed to do it, despite BARELY superguarding the whole game, although Mush's fast attacks kinda made it easier for me, and i knocked his guard off and finished him off. He HONESTLY might be harder than Whacka imo, solely because he can just IGNORE damage towards the end and dish out HELLISH damage if you don’t guard well.

Honestly I think you should keep both videos up and just have different titles for people who like both strats.

He's basically a younger version of The Master from Paper Mario 64.
It's stated in the first game that The Master and Tayce T. are brother and siste, and Zess T. is implied to be their sister too, so maybe Prince Mush and Jolene are The Master's grandkids.
That’s one hell of a family tree they’ve got!

Better than nothing excluding bragging rights I guess!

Cuz bro couldn't use it, mush was strong due to his stances, which were crazy important for winning in the glitz pit
Man I can see now why this guy was considered to be the greatest fighter in the arena at one point. Rawk Hawk has got nothing on this guy.
Prince Mush is doing damage the Shadow Queen can only dream of
I love that he’s just a Saiyan.
No joke, he charges up with an aura, he uses an afterimage technique, etc.
Don't forget the blonde hair.

What would’ve been insane is what if you fight him again but this time he has all of his power back??? Like he would be completely in his prime

The scary part is that you _cannot_ cheese this fight with stuff like Boo Capes and Repel Flags, because you can ONLY drop his stance with Superguard once he gets low health. Even Life Shrooms only do so much, because they'll activate if your partner dies, too, meaning you'll burn through them.
If Peach's guards were all like this, she would never get kidnapped.
Well, not exactly. Remember Prince Mush fights fair, and Bowser NEVER fights fair, and when you have numbers, you really think they would be able to stop wave after wave after wave after wave of koopa troopas, goombas, ninjis, and magikoopas?
if Mario can do it, so can an army of super sayain toads
@@smanly3274 His Tattle quite literally confirms he has a fear of cakes so all Bowser has to do is pull up in a cake suit and they'll all be shitting bricks.
@@pyregg1572 Exactly, so if Peach's guards were like Mush, they would already be fucked since Bowser would discover their weaknesses eventually.
@@Dip7man If Toads are Super Saiyan, Bowser is Blue. Mario is just that guy.
They did something the original should have done initially.
It was planned for the original, but was cut, likely due to time constraints.
@@theking8347 I wonder if someone will add their own version of this fight in when they make a mod of the original.
@@AKitchell That would be cool. Likely still has plenty of cut content to draw from.
Factsss
@@theking8347That’s actually untrue. It was a rumor, but nothing has substantiated that rumor. Basically, one guy claimed it on the CRF and the Super Mario Wiki, and said guy was a mod for many years, so no one fact-checked him. However, Did You Know Gaming investigated it, and found no evidence of it.
Goombella: “Prince Mush doesn’t use any dirty tricks.”
Prince Mush: (Dodges attacks. Has a combo that does insane damage per hit. Illusion decoys.)
Yeah… REAAL clean fight, Mush.
welll i mean we have partners and superguards
That all comes from natural talent.
Fair in its own element at least. Utilize the superguards!

Im unable to play the remake so when i found this video i thought "hes just a toad whats the worse he could do"
He can do a lot apparently
Watch the master toad from paper Mario 64
A toad goomba boo and Koopa were able to seal a world threatening enemy so don’t underestimate their size!
And according to Goombella’s tattle entry this isn’t even his prime strength during this fight he is rusty…so if this is him while rusty tf was he like in his prime?
Thats more like it! Prince Mush is no joke! Makes me wonder how Grubba was able to make him Vanish...
Prince Mush strikes me as a very naive person, so Grubba likely just tricked him into getting into the machine of his own volition and drained him before he could retaliate.
...a cake, perhaps?
I’m guessing Rawk Hawk was also involved with making other fighters disappear.
@@speedymatt1236 Nah. Rawk Hawk may have fought dirty, but he wasn't that dirty.
Still, you got to imagine he might be related to Grubba’s secret.

You have no idea how happy this makes me. I always wished you could fight Prince Mush in the original, so you can imagine my reaction when I saw you *can* take him on in the remake. And they made him *freaking epic.*
If you guys want to get around Prince Mush's 6 defense, use Flurrie's Lip Lock, Vivian's Fiery Jinx, or Ms Mowz's Love Slap.
At last, a use for Ms. Mowz
@@theking8347Only took 20 years, but hey!
@@theking8347 yeah she's actually pretty damn good in this fight relatively speaking
of course it doesn't really matter if you do the super guards that it wants you to do, as it removes all of his defense after landing one

@@ReuniclusJelly He's only immune to fire if you didn't make him vulnerable with a superguard.
6:28 “Mush used double team”

"It's super effective!"
@@HypeofHypes uh, isn’t it a status move?
You KNOW. You can TELL. That he was a student of the first Dojo in Paper Mario 64.
I've heard a few people theorize that they might be related.
Good lord this fight is so good it made me wanna cry. Like 3D Culex, it reads you like an open book and subverts optimal strats to really keep you on your toes, while every other boss just stands there and helplessly take the harshest beating you could give. Prince Mush single-handedly elevated my overall enjoyment on TTYD, and this is coming from someone who likes Paper Mario 64 more.
I vaguely remember as a kid the original game talking up Prince Mush, him being the previous champion and all, and being disappointed you couldn’t actually battle him.
It’s nice to know this remake is fulfilling a childhood dream of mine. This is absolutely nuts!
5:40 my freaking jaw dropped to the floor when I first saw that, then I saw 6:23, and Jesus, Joseph, and Mary... I’m at a loss for words.
ain't no way
Prince Mush legit got da Mario 64 Romhack(DE/Master Quest) Super Saiyan 3 Master 4 5x combo and does 21 damage prob due to the Fiery spirit within him flaring up 🤔 he even got Pm64 Master Quest/DSE Lee Clones at 6:30
even more surprisingly via 6:23
he does a bit over 100 damage with the 5 flying rider kicks. this makes him the most damaging enemy in the entire paper mario series, next to Whacka
absolute Cinema 🤲
Beat to punch, I recognised his fighting style, definitly a dispicple of the master
YIKES! That’s a LOT a of damage!
Yesterday I though that being fulminated on three turns would make It a lame superboss fight for how easy would be.
But this guy ain't fucking around.
I think his full 100-damage combo actually technically makes him even more powerful than even Master 4. I can't think of a Master Quest enemy that can do more damage on 1 turn.
I remembered that this guy existed yesterday, and that we never fought him in the original game.
And once I remembered, I had a gut feeling he’d be exactly like The Master from the N64 Paper Mario.
Oh, how little did I realize how RIGHT I was.
I just fought this guy, and I got my stuff wrecked.
Mush makes The Master look like a flea when it comes to raw power.
3:43 imagine if there was a secret way to defeat him where if you eat a cake in front of him his defense drops to 0 and he gets ptsd
Funny enough, I had a chocolate cake in my inventory for this fight and actually tried that to see if he'd comment or react to it. I was sadly disappointed.
- Turn based battle
- End of game boss
- Dodges your attack
- Can annihilate you in a single attack
Prince Mush is Sans
get matpat out of retirement we’re gonna need him
The only thing that is missing is his glowing blue eye.
He’s not an end of game boss. You can fight him at any point after you take care of a trouble for Jolene and wait for messages from both her and Prince Mush, and then you can come back to the Glitz Pit anytime to challenge him. You probably should complete your comeback in the Glitz Pit before doing so, just to get it out of the way.
@@JZJ7777 I mean, he basically is an endgame boss. He’s got the stats of one and if you don’t have endgame stats, he can be very, very hard.

Tricked him into eating a poisonous cake

This has to be one of the hardest boss fights I’ve done in this game. He’s ridiculously strong, and can only be defeated using superguards. Also, he has an attack in his third stance that deals over 100 damage in one turn. That’s crazy. I managed to beat him, somehow, but wow, talk about insane.
Damn. This game remastered the hell outta things and it's great with many iconic remade and memories. Great fight!
This is so cool i was thinking of this boss before the game even released
This definitely serves as a reference to Little Mac having the dream fight against Mr. Dream/Mile Tyson.
Prince Mush is a mix of The Master from Paper Mario 64 and Kazuma Kiryu from Yakuza.
He changes stances like Kiryu and punches like The Master. Loved this secret boss that they added ✊🏿
I'm glad that they went and added stuff for your return at the Glitz Pit! I remember being extremely disappointed in the original, back when Rock Hawk was all like "oh yeah, i'm gonna train SUPER hard for your return Gonzales!" but he's gained absolutely no strength at all since your last match and you just stomp him even harder
Wait they finally did it?!? They added a Prince Mush fight?!? Yo, this is hype af! And holy shit he does INSANE damage!
Wow! Prince Mush really can kick butt and I friggin' love it.
Seriously, we need more Toad characters, like him and Toad from the Mario movie. Toads have always been a run-of-the-mill supporting characters in Mario, and I want some more to take spotlight in character and story.
8:03 - 8:18 Wow! Thanks for nothing.
Maybe the real reward for defeating him was the skills you gained to do it
Imagine issuing a challenge to _Mario._ Lil bro was cooked the moment he hit send.
You gotta admit though, if Mario didn't pack literal self revives he would be cooked too. Even outside of that, bro put up one hell of a fight, gotta give him props for giving someone like Mario an actual challenge
@@omegamyee5592and remember as Goombella states he hasn’t fought in a long time meaning he’s probably rusty so that means that he was even stronger when became champion
6:22 So that’s what Omnislash would look like in a fist fight
For the last 20 years I always wondered what it would’ve been like to fight Prince Mush & I’m glad I lived long enough to see it. Definitely a worthy fight for the first champion of the Glitz Pit.
Me after a successful superguard: let's-a-go!
Me the next turn after messing superguard up: Mama Mia!
There are lots of Mario games (or at least Paper) that portray Toads in a weaker light. And then you have this unit!
20 something years later, we may have wondered how Prince mush fought-
all bosses combined could not match his caliber, who knew..
This is a fight that always felt like it was meant to be in the original game, glad they finally gave us the chance to fight him (not to mention he lives up to the hype of being the first Glitz Pit Champion)!
I want to see the fight between the Paper Mario Grand Master and Prince Mush. That will be a fight to remember.
I don’t think the Grand Master can super block so I think Prince Mush just wins because of his combo move that does 110 damage total
There's a good reason Rock hawk could never beat Prince Mush and take the title before Grubba poisoned him and made him vanish
Hang on, is Zap Tap not a thing in TTYD? I remember the Master being entirely stonewalled by it in the first game.
Prince Mush is immune to Zap Tap
Yeah... About that... Mush is immune to all elementals. (at least as far as I could tell, explosion was the only attack type I found that could even damage him, forget statuses none of them worked for me.)
Yeah the devs decided to just hard counter any shenanigans like that by just making Prince Mush immune to ALL ELEMENTS so you can’t zap trap or anything except non elemental attacks pretty much fully getting rid of some partners as options for the fight as well
There is, it just doesn't work against Prince Mush.
Zap Tap is a thing, but Prince Mush is completely immune to it. He seems immune to just about all elementals, so he can’t be burned, frozen, or hit by explosions, for instance.
So how does the music sound with the GameCube badge on? Since the fight seems to have a new music track.
While I don't know for this battle, the Battle Master music just doesn't change, so i'm guessing it's the same here.
Or it plays the standard event battle music.
@@PipesTheVlob This unique theme sounds way better than the event battle music, but both are good.
I felt legitimately cheated in the original game without this guy being an optional boss. Jolene sends the email that he's going to be fighting again, only for that to never happen.
You just don't do that. I'm sorry. So glad to see that fixed.
My boi Koops is such a clutch
I saw the notice to fight this guy and though "oh, OK, probably pretty decent" and then I saw the tattle log and went "oh CRUD I am not prepared for this" I was right. You live or die on Superguard mastery which I have become pretty sloppy in my much older age. He kicked my butt for the first time in 15 years. And that was the time I could actually pull off Peril Strats well.
I remember going straight to Mush after beating the Pit of 100 Trials the first time.
My strategy goes like this: I have Mario charge up for like, 5-10 turns, playing on the defensive all the while. Then I let Mario rip with Power Bounce.
It worked on Bonetail, so this shouldn't be too different, I thought. Then I witnessed Mush has a defense of 6, and him brutalizing Goombella after she tattled him, which was certainly one hell of an opening. So I immediately put Flurrie on dodge buff duty. I let the party attack Mush to figure out his movements. When the time is right, I let Jumpman do what he does best... but I missed an input on the fifth jump, somehow leaving Mush with exactly 1 HP.
And when he prepared to kick Mario in the face, I managed to land the superguard, while trying to figure out when was the exact frame I needed to hit B.
I think I managed to beat Mush in the coolest way possible on accident.
Just a reminder that Toad has a higher power stat than Mario in Super Mario Bros 2.
With the right training and some courage, any Toad could be like Mush.
Failboat: GRANDMA DEFINE THAT ENEMY!
Grandma: er um I think this is God 1
"Oh, dear, I believe this is a _Prime Soul."_
I think this is the first time we've ever fight a toad this strong
Did zaptap stops his combos like the master from paper mario 64?
No. He's also immune to, oh I don't know, nearly everything and every status effect.
No
No because he’s just immune to all elements. The devs really wanted to make sure you don’t shenanigans him like that
No, because he’s immune to all elemental attacks and status effects.
Remember, Prince Mush was really rusty in this fight, and he was still giving Mario a hard time, even with his allies by his side.
That's actually impressive when you think about it.
It’s even crazier when you realize that grubba use this machine to drain prints, mushes energy meaning that not only was he rusty. He was also weakened.
@jasondobbins9735 so he was both rusty and weakened in this fight, and he's still a powerhouse?! Just imagine him at what he was like in his prime and in a healthy state. Scary stuff
I also love how everyone in the audience are all Toads. It’s almost like even Nintendo knows how ridiculous it can be lol
They actually ADDED this fight? It was cut from the original game. Sweet.
I’m so glad they gave Prince Mush the justice he deserved by finally giving us a chance to fight him.
I appreciate Prince Mush’s fight a lot and can settle for the bonus championship right here. However, I would still love it if we could have Luigi be a post game opponent in this ring, and as the toughest boss battle in the game bar none!
Just as Mario has his swappable companions, Luigi shall also have his own adventure partners (regardless how they feel about him lol) fight alongside him as well. And whereas Mario uses hammers, I want to see Luigi throwing boomerangs. Just a few pipe dreams…
5:56 SUPER SAYAN PRINCE MUSH!
I attempted this after clearing chapter 6 and....yeah.
I was insanely unprepared.
It's amazing how you do all those perfect superguards in the beginning. When I went up against Prince Mush, I needed a *WHOLE* lot of Life Mushrooms because Mush's Super Attack kept knocking me out. It took me three tries and the Ruby Crystal Star to finally defeat Mush.
Honestly I’m amazed Rawk Hawk’s poison cake ever affected him instead of just making him even stronger
Friendly advice, you ought to make your title something that isn't a huge spoiler for people who haven't gotten to play the game yet. I just opened RUclips and this was the 1st thing that popped up. Now I've been spoiled for something that I'd have liked to have been surprised at.
This game is a report it's a known optional boss

If no one in the game, not even Mario can dodge, then I consider dodging to be cheating.
@@beauboy3061 Mario and his partners can literally superguard and damage the enemies during their own attack with no extra badges required.
I’ve seen WAY more BS fights than that one tbh.
Keep an eye on his stance. If he’s jumping, jumps can hit him. If he’s shuffling, hammers can hurt him.
Eric Vale is who I’m imagining as the voice of Prince Mush.
That's kinda hot.
Thx for the upload!
Prince mush? I also beat on my first go, but again, I came PREPARED for the worst, much like with Whacka, I had all hp plus badges i could find on, fp plus badges, power plus badges, all or nothing, jumpman, defense plus badges, damage dodge, lucky day, so that i could do 16 damage with a perfect spring jump each turn, and when he starts becoming impossible to hurt, you *HAVE* to superguard or die trying, I thankfully managed to do it, despite BARELY superguarding the whole game, although Mush's fast attacks kinda made it easier for me, and i knocked his guard off and finished him off.
He HONESTLY might be harder than Whacka imo, solely because he can just IGNORE damage towards the end and dish out HELLISH damage if you don’t guard well.
