@@tntdude3152 Because Twitter was changed to X recently. The Boss is called Egg X, so the joke is it used to be Egg Twitter. The Final Zone of Sonic Advance is X Zone, which incase you somehow didn't know, is where you fight the Egg X. And *I'm* the one who doesn't get the joke...
I've genuinely never been so baffled with a list like this before. The choices are just insane and had me doing a double take a lot of the time. The cherry on top being the Time Eater right near the top.
Yeah....Also Forces Death Egg Robot in top 5...? Yikes (Also side note, If I remember correctly, Eggman wasn't even controlling Egg Lancer, right??? Big whoopsie for something in top 10)
Some things felt grouped together and others systematically spaced out. He could have easily had the whole list randomized, edited a few placements, and then called it a day. 3D blast and Advance 2 bosses don’t really differ enough for that much of a gap.

"Sonic bosses are more about style than substance" Well, you're right, and I love that fact. Sure, Perfect Chaos, the Finalhazard, Metal Overlord, and Solaris are quite on the not difficult at all side, maybe even easy, but sure as hell they are fricking epic, and that's what I love about 2000s Sonic era bosses.
40:51 Fun fact, originally, you destroy the bottom wires first and then the top ones. This was easy to cheese as when Eggman is activating the electricity, he leaves himself right open. So when the DLC came out, they swapped it to where now, no matter what, you have to jump into Eggman. Until you have only one wire left.
I think these bosses are better than you made them out to be tbh, a lot of these are easy or dumb because people like you or me have played these games to death, and kinda just know how they work.

Yeah some of his reasons are dumb as hell. Such as seriously? On the egg king you are supposed to go as fast as possible on the arm. The arrows on the sonic 2 boss fight is creative as your jump is not high enough to reach him and which of the heads that fire one is random. They become basic once you play them a lot.

"Why does everyone call this "Discount Nega-Wisp Armor?" " Simply because it's a copy of the Nega-Wisp from Colors. Same way to defeat the robot and same way to dodge the attacks. It's basically a carbon copy with a few tweaks.
One thing I loved about the original Egg Dragoon fight is how INSANE Eggman is now. He's literally at his breaking point of Sonic constantly foiling his plans and wants him DEAD this time! Eggman: Stupid hedgehog! Just give up and DIE already! Sonic: Jeez Eggman! Simmer down!
Actually to get the true ending in Shadow the Hedgehog, you need to fight Egg Dealer FOUR TIMES. Both endings for lava shelter, the dark ending for cosmic fall, and the hero ending for black comet.
I also love remembering the sky in the background dusking at the start of battling against Big Arms and after Big Arms has been defeated the sky in the background dawns.
Big Arm and Death Egg Robot are absolutely true classics. Much love for the Egg Viper in SA1 and Egg Dragoon in Generations and Unleashed. Egg Emperor in Heroes had he been able to use it, he’d been locked up, is one more phenomenal design.
you know you're playing the "most optimal" vesions of the classic series bosses right? Having a spindash in Sonic 1 basically cheeses the Sonic 1 final boss fight, like you know this wasn't a thing in Sonic 1 right? Same goes for the momentum that is different in the Genesis version compared to Sonic Origins, alongside potential minimal slowdowns in some fights that would have been noticable on real hardware.
I'm sure somebody has brought this up, but on the Egg Frog fight you can jump on the ceiling (just like the Egg Frog). There's no need for a carefully timed jump, it was awesome on my first run in the game when I did it the first time!
19:09 Correction, in Sonic’s version, you’re supposed to run up it’s arms and then bounce attack on top of the Genesis’ head. The method shown is an exploit because of them not removing Silver’s hitbox.
16:23 also not true, this boss was originally reimplemented in the iOS version of Sonic 2 before being made availible for other systems, alongside Hidden palace Zone itself.
I still say Dragoon is probably the best "final boss" mech Eggman's ever built. It's got a great design that's pretty intimidating, tons of unique weapons, somewhat modular with its attack modes... But yeah, the Nega-Wisp Armor is cool for using the same Wisp powers Sonic had. What if he managed to combine the two?
isnt that a bit cheap for YT content like one of those tier list videos that pop up but basically shouldnt mean anything becomes we have our own opinions on alot of matter?
Giant Eggman Robo is the Eggman Boss that has the Robo Fingers in phase 1 and the Master Emerald Powered Laser Cannon & Nose Fire Breath in phase 2 and then phase 3 has the Egg Mobile with the Master Emerald grabbed.
I don’t know why but my favorite is the original death egg robot. There’s something that’s just really rewarding about beating the game for the first time.
Whle Bowser has done a lot of bad stuff, Eggman *literally holds innocent animals against their will to create deadly robots.* Sure, in some Sonic media Eggman is about as evil as Bowser, but in other Sonic Media he literally wants to destroy the entire world.
Eggman's record is 146 losses to 1 win in Sonic Forces (and even then he literally just watched Sonic get beaten by Infinite) Bowser's is only 51 losses to 0 wins
@@Dr_Panda. Bowser also won in Mario Odyssey and also has literally managed to kidnap Mario twice in both Mario is missing and in Super Princess Peach so that’d actually give Bowser 3 wins and Eggman 2 wins
The best way to attack the death egg robot (Or robot death egg in Spanish) in sonic forces is by using the homing attack on its core and to get its S rank score 1.8 million points. (Number 5 - 41:32)
Ok, I will say the Wii/PS2 Egg Dragoon lacks the QTEs and also it's phases are a neat refrence to attacks from the prior nighttime bosses you fight (Dark Gaia Phoenix's firey feathers, Dark Moray's ice blasts and Dark Guardian's electric hammer) and I honestly like it that way Also I will add two more notes: 1 - The Egg Lancer does something similar to the PS2/Wii Egg Dragoon, where it uses multiple boss refrences, as it's a mashup of the Egg Beetle and Egg Devil Ray with some new elements which I love, it feels like a scrapped together mech from two mechs that were simplish but effective 2 - You forgot the Egg Devil Ray. It's honestly interesting but Egg Lancer does it's job better in every way. So I'd put Egg Beetle and Egg Devil Ray in the equal same spot and then have Egg Lancer where it is above them
@@UDPlaythroughs1990 ah, so it's different between the two versions. I'm a PS2 player, so that's why I mixed them up. But honestly the PS2 version is fairly good with making bosses not have a ton of QTE's. Although I will say that the Dark Guardian SUCKS in PS2, it's the one boss I can't get behind at all purely as you can beat it in 19 seconds
I actually enjoyed the Lava Reef Zone boss in Sonic 3 because I like that you have to hit the thing 15 times (meaning hitting the machine 5 times a piece) and its all about difficulty and creativity.
i'm pretty sure the egg-hvc-001 was made as a jab at nintendo, since the original famicom's model number was hvc-001 it was essentially just there to call nintendo weak
I’m glad many of us are sharing the same thoughts because…there’s tons of complaints about some of these bosses. Many of them are because of either nostalgia or because they are “lackluster.”
I’m pretty sure you could just push up to shift the gravity in the Egg Frog fight so you can avoid his nukes. Granted it’s not advertised very well. Perhaps Egg Frog is the Carnival Night Barrel of the Advance series.
Kinda funny to me how eggman went from: "hehe, beeg wrecking ball go brr,and gambling addiction" To:"Shadow of collosus, Literal time eaters, and *giantic* robots"
You forgot about the Egg Devil Ray, Bandy! I'm also surprised that you didn't include the Metal Sonic race in Sonic CD because Eggman plays a part in that as well.
You do not get how much happiness it gave me to see it top the list. I love the fight way more than the Wii version bc it just hits different, with the atmosphere and the usage of ALL the wisp powers. You aint running from this boss. You're falling WITH the boss
Why does SA2’s second iteration get added into the first entry when remake fights get separate entries? The second iteration adds the laser beam and missiles making it slightly harder
I'm so salty it's Egg Dragoon was left off. It's both refrencing other bosses AND allergic to quicktime events The Egg Devil Ray is also an Eggman boss in that version too. I actually adore the Egg Lancer and Egg Dragoon refrencing the prior day and night bosses in their attack patterns (Day for Lancer, Night for Dragoon)
I can't believe my favorite Sonic game (at least out of the ones I've been lucky enough to play) made 1st place! You're darn right, Nega Wisp Armor for the DS version of colors IS awesome! Maybe you could do a ranking of Super Sonic battles as well, (Like Nega Mother Wisp, the Frontiers bosses, Dark Queen, etc.) I definitely would like to see a sequel come through.
6:30 this fight is every easy to cheat. The little latch at the end of the platforms, if you spam jump under it you won’t die, the laser and tail will miss you, and just move over to hit egg man every time he pops up. Easy
Break up with basic browsers. Get Opera GX here: operagx.gg/NathanielBandy

Yes. We don't talk about the forces one. I disowned it from the Egg Dragoon family in my mind

Eggman: Stupid hedgehog! Just give up and DIE already!
Sonic: Jeez Eggman! Simmer down!
Actually to get the true ending in Shadow the Hedgehog, you need to fight Egg Dealer FOUR TIMES. Both endings for lava shelter, the dark ending for cosmic fall, and the hero ending for black comet.
There is actually a different final boss for the game gear sonic 1 where the one laser is replaced by electric platforms.
I also love remembering the sky in the background dusking at the start of battling against Big Arms and after Big Arms has been defeated the sky in the background dawns.
1:06 - "You see those glowy buttons? They control a *rowlet* wheel"
Big Arm and Death Egg Robot are absolutely true classics.
Much love for the Egg Viper in SA1 and Egg Dragoon in Generations and Unleashed.
Egg Emperor in Heroes had he been able to use it, he’d been locked up, is one more phenomenal design.
At least he used it in the comics

you know you're playing the "most optimal" vesions of the classic series bosses right? Having a spindash in Sonic 1 basically cheeses the Sonic 1 final boss fight, like you know this wasn't a thing in Sonic 1 right? Same goes for the momentum that is different in the Genesis version compared to Sonic Origins, alongside potential minimal slowdowns in some fights that would have been noticable on real hardware.
1 yr later and he still never fails to entertain me
the moment the egg scrambler came up so early in the list, I knew this was going to be a baffling list
I'm sure somebody has brought this up, but on the Egg Frog fight you can jump on the ceiling (just like the Egg Frog). There's no need for a carefully timed jump, it was awesome on my first run in the game when I did it the first time!

Ok, but with SAdvance 2 Boss, I’ve heard quite a few call this Egg Shrimp
@@adilhossain8198 I've never heard anyone call it that, likely for good reason
Egg Reverie is the zone not the boss
19:09
Correction, in Sonic’s version, you’re supposed to run up it’s arms and then bounce attack on top of the Genesis’ head. The method shown is an exploit because of them not removing Silver’s hitbox.
16:23 also not true, this boss was originally reimplemented in the iOS version of Sonic 2 before being made availible for other systems, alongside Hidden palace Zone itself.
You should rank all the non eggman bosses. They definitely tend to be better.
25:14 By pressing up during the boss fight, you can change Sonics gravity to avoid the bomb attack.
I still say Dragoon is probably the best "final boss" mech Eggman's ever built. It's got a great design that's pretty intimidating, tons of unique weapons, somewhat modular with its attack modes... But yeah, the Nega-Wisp Armor is cool for using the same Wisp powers Sonic had.
What if he managed to combine the two?
His name is literally Dr. Ivo Robotnik, why would you do my man so hard
I just love that Nathaniel rates everything in games
Kinda sets us up for a video where Nathaniel rates his rating videos, huh?
isnt that a bit cheap for YT content like one of those tier list videos that pop up but basically shouldnt mean anything becomes we have our own opinions on alot of matter?
I think he deserves to make some easier videos after those 7 day marathon ones
1:31 when I was kid I didn’t know you could do that but later in the mid or late 2010s or early 2020s I finally figured out that you can do that.
Giant Eggman Robo is the Eggman Boss that has the Robo Fingers in phase 1 and the Master Emerald Powered Laser Cannon & Nose Fire Breath in phase 2 and then phase 3 has the Egg Mobile with the Master Emerald grabbed.
I love Eggman as the Monkey King Son Wukong, complete with flying cloud and extending staff. Nice reference, Sega @8:50
Thank you for doing this list. Who knew that there were so many Eggman bosses in the Sonic franchise. Keep up the great work on your videos.

I don’t know why but my favorite is the original death egg robot. There’s something that’s just really rewarding about beating the game for the first time.
"A robot dung beetle that rolls around a metal ball instead of ****, how can you not find that a little funny"
Every Megaman X6 player: *flashbacks*
Boy I sure would love to know the context behind _that_
@@AltKaxREAL Ground Scaravich is a dung beetle maverick from X6
@@TinySpiny thank you lol
Who would you say has a worse track record?
Bowser or eggman?
Eggman, Bowser's first handheld console appearance at least seemed like it tried
Whle Bowser has done a lot of bad stuff, Eggman *literally holds innocent animals against their will to create deadly robots.* Sure, in some Sonic media Eggman is about as evil as Bowser, but in other Sonic Media he literally wants to destroy the entire world.
Eggman's record is 146 losses to 1 win in Sonic Forces (and even then he literally just watched Sonic get beaten by Infinite)
Bowser's is only 51 losses to 0 wins
@@SylviaGromethought he also won the first time against sonic in unleashed in the cutscene
@@Dr_Panda. Bowser also won in Mario Odyssey and also has literally managed to kidnap Mario twice in both Mario is missing and in Super Princess Peach so that’d actually give Bowser 3 wins and Eggman 2 wins
The best way to attack the death egg robot (Or robot death egg in Spanish) in sonic forces is by using the homing attack on its core and to get its S rank score 1.8 million points.
(Number 5 - 41:32)
25:15 I don't remember how but you can swap gravity to run on the ceiling to avoid the fire trail
Props to the Sun Wukong reference in Yellow Desert Zone.
That's the only thing I like about that game.
8:49 eggman is pretending he's kid goku lmao
37:22 hearing him SAY WYVERN and tgen procreed to call it "dragon like" made me die inside
Ok, I will say the Wii/PS2 Egg Dragoon lacks the QTEs and also it's phases are a neat refrence to attacks from the prior nighttime bosses you fight (Dark Gaia Phoenix's firey feathers, Dark Moray's ice blasts and Dark Guardian's electric hammer) and I honestly like it that way
Also I will add two more notes:
1 - The Egg Lancer does something similar to the PS2/Wii Egg Dragoon, where it uses multiple boss refrences, as it's a mashup of the Egg Beetle and Egg Devil Ray with some new elements which I love, it feels like a scrapped together mech from two mechs that were simplish but effective
2 - You forgot the Egg Devil Ray. It's honestly interesting but Egg Lancer does it's job better in every way. So I'd put Egg Beetle and Egg Devil Ray in the equal same spot and then have Egg Lancer where it is above them
They were piloted by robot hands not Eggman in the HD version but it was piloted by Eggman in the PS2 version.
@@UDPlaythroughs1990 ah, so it's different between the two versions. I'm a PS2 player, so that's why I mixed them up. But honestly the PS2 version is fairly good with making bosses not have a ton of QTE's. Although I will say that the Dark Guardian SUCKS in PS2, it's the one boss I can't get behind at all purely as you can beat it in 19 seconds
@@kirbstagoontheaxolotl so you like some box pushing nonsense from the HD version?
@@garsrandom4358 I haven't even played the HD version, it's more of a fact I just don't want a 'boss fight' to take 1 minute, tops
I actually enjoyed the Lava Reef Zone boss in Sonic 3 because I like that you have to hit the thing 15 times (meaning hitting the machine 5 times a piece) and its all about difficulty and creativity.
When you have hyper Sonic and don't lose your rings on your way to it, it's a walk in the park
@@AltKaxREALyeah because you are invincable.
i'm pretty sure the egg-hvc-001 was made as a jab at nintendo, since the original famicom's model number was hvc-001
it was essentially just there to call nintendo weak
Hearing 146 at the start shocked me.
Like how the heck are there that many DIFFERENT Eggman fights?
It shocked me too.
And he still forgot the rivals bosses!
I’m glad many of us are sharing the same thoughts because…there’s tons of complaints about some of these bosses.
Many of them are because of either nostalgia or because they are “lackluster.”
I’m pretty sure you could just push up to shift the gravity in the Egg Frog fight so you can avoid his nukes. Granted it’s not advertised very well.
Perhaps Egg Frog is the Carnival Night Barrel of the Advance series.
I like that eggman's voice is just making me laugh so much that in cutscene, I just laugh so much when his plans sucked 😂
6:44 R.I.P. Tails
I was waiting for this Ranking for long time, Thank you Nathaniel! Keep doing a great job but never overwork yourself!
26:10 especially when you know that its the FIRST BOSS of the game!Thats crazy right?Atleast for a first boss
"YOU KNOW WHAT THEY SAY. THE MORE, THE MERRIER!"
I also adore the Dive Eggman Reverse Boss fight very much, it makes me wish more Sonic Video games had more reverse boss fights like that too.
8:15 proceds to show a us a sonic advance boss and says it’s from adventure. Not even my blind grandmother would think that Nathaniel
You know it's a good day when nathaniel uploads
Kinda funny to me how eggman went from: "hehe, beeg wrecking ball go brr,and gambling addiction"
To:"Shadow of collosus, Literal time eaters, and *giantic* robots"
You forgot about the Egg Devil Ray, Bandy! I'm also surprised that you didn't include the Metal Sonic race in Sonic CD because Eggman plays a part in that as well.
Respect for putting Time Eater on 3DS at Number 3. It took me several years to beat it when I was younger, and it is a spectacle.
Colors ds is SUPER underrated, glad to see it get some appreciation.
You do not get how much happiness it gave me to see it top the list. I love the fight way more than the Wii version bc it just hits different, with the atmosphere and the usage of ALL the wisp powers. You aint running from this boss. You're falling WITH the boss
14:40 I guess waluigi’s pinball is a exception
Why does SA2’s second iteration get added into the first entry when remake fights get separate entries? The second iteration adds the laser beam and missiles making it slightly harder
25:21 oof, dont tell you are unaware that, as in the stage itself, you can change gravity to pull you upward?!
28:29 fun fact: you can jumps over the bombs just when they explode and get launched up and hit eggman
We need to applaud for this video guys. He gad to replay sonic 06 and sonic forces AND sonic 3d blast. I'm thankful he's still alive 🙏🙏
I don't see how is that an achievement... But he is cool.
@LordfarquaadISdaddy -Visible confusion-
ofc it's a mario pfp, im guessing you never played those games
What’s wrong with 3D blast, 06 is mid and Forces is trash but 3D blast is a pretty good game
@@GetemNewellRules nuh uh
Would the next one be Extra bosses? (doesn't include eggman, but includes metal sonic, egg robots, etc.)
This list absolutely baffles me. Time Eater (Xbox 360) at 6?? What
4:26 Bloons TD 6 ost as the sponser music, very clean lol
Once again, Bandy includes loads of different ports but forgets that the Wii and PS2 versions of Unleashed have different eggman bosses
I'm so salty it's Egg Dragoon was left off. It's both refrencing other bosses AND allergic to quicktime events
The Egg Devil Ray is also an Eggman boss in that version too. I actually adore the Egg Lancer and Egg Dragoon refrencing the prior day and night bosses in their attack patterns (Day for Lancer, Night for Dragoon)
8:01 you can LITERALLY FLY
When you called the Giant Egg Robo's fingers sausages, I immediately thought "Don't you point those dirty green sausages at me!" from Shrek 2.
18:10 Whats the common phrase people say again?
I love this concept for a video, Eggman is one of my favorite villains in gaming and his boss fights are always a good time
You know what they say, where's that DAMN computer room?!
1:16 Nathaniel turned into the AVGN there for a second.
Nathaniel has the best commentary voice for these videos
I also find the Egg Bubble looks like an underwater version of the Egg Bouncer.
21:22
You forgot to mention that you can stand on top of the mushroom cloud explosion to hit Eggman (for some reason)
That is ridiculous it should hit you standing on it but it doesn't what is the sense.
Short version it shouldn't be possible.
41:52 you can also hit the robot chest to do more damage
Nice ranking video! Next time… he should do King Dedede… if he wants to!
23:58 replay this with captions....
So, is everyone going to ignore that all 5 Knuckles Chaotix Eggman bosses were skipped but Sonic Blast is here? Huh...
And Spinball bossfight against Eggman too
17:57 did you have to play that part 5 times? Seriously???
8:07 I love the egg drillster in sonic adventure
I can't believe my favorite Sonic game (at least out of the ones I've been lucky enough to play) made 1st place! You're darn right, Nega Wisp Armor for the DS version of colors IS awesome! Maybe you could do a ranking of Super Sonic battles as well, (Like Nega Mother Wisp, the Frontiers bosses, Dark Queen, etc.) I definitely would like to see a sequel come through.
The palmtree panic fight and the final fever fight are the first ones that came to mind LUL
Now we need a ranked video of the Eggman fights from the spin-off games.
"But now, it's ad time!"
*"OH NO YOU DON'T!"*
*"No way! I can't believe this!"*
*"He's not gonna get away with this!"*
Heh. Had to do it. 😁
10:56 In the original Sonic 1 there was no spindash, that was only introduced in origins.
6:30 this fight is every easy to cheat. The little latch at the end of the platforms, if you spam jump under it you won’t die, the laser and tail will miss you, and just move over to hit egg man every time he pops up. Easy
