We came a long way from ranking the grippiest (J. Cole would be proud). Real shit I always liked the funny content but seeing this side of you has been really rewarding too. You're a great writer and have some really interesting insights. Can't wait to hear you cover Shadow of the Erdtree!
@@Arkade_k17 After seeing this comment and I decided to look over your older videos and DAAAAAAAAAM its wild Which boss has the best milkers which one has the best feet 😭
I swear to god, it has to include every encounter with a named health bar. All Sekiro mini bosses. All Chalice Dungeons bosses. All dozens of Elden Ring random boss encounters throughout the map. I want them all.
I beat malenia naked while trying to do a full naked run of all the bosses and honestly it just felt as if the universe just didn’t want to allow me to win.
Yeah, dunno about favorite but I really liked it. Their design is dope (always liked the look of black flames in souls games), their music is nothing short of amazing and is still one of my favorites in the base game. Sure they are not quite as well put together as a duo as O&S but still not as bad as people say. And honestly I feel O&S are a little (but only a little) overrated as a duo fight. But it might be just because the game is a little dated.
LIST SPOILERS AHEAD I think your list is completely fair and an excellent ranking overall. I'm surprised you don't like Sister Friede that much though. I find her to be one of the most enjoyable fights in the entire series. She was like the first Malenia to me. I think the amazement I had after finishing the second phase for the time and getting a titanite slab as a reward, thinking that the fight was over, only to have her stand up.... AGAIN, was one the best moments I've ever had in soulsbourne. Easy top 10 for me personally. Also I'd put Isshin number 1, but Gael is still a great choice. I just think Isshin is the most perfect fight From has ever made.
Sword Saint Ishin is perfection as far as I'm concerned; the absolute refinement of Sekiro's mechanics with FromSoft's signature demanding yet rewarding gameplay. He alone would raise any game to a much higher standard by his inclusion.
Mellania is like anime character doing insane 8-9 fist punch combos while you are from 50's cartoon with a fiddle stick trying to juggle everything. So fair From software so fair :)
You can turn her into a little punching bag with another knowledge of the game and the fight, it is a very fair fight apart from her stagger cancel kick in phase 2
Everyone is entitled to their own opinion, but labelling Maiden Astrea's Lore as "okay i guess" just completely shows you dont really understand the point of the encounter. It seems youre doing more of a "how much do i enjoy hitting the thing until it dies" list rather than a holistic boss ranking
It doesn’t seem like he really enjoys the games or the story’s, a boss like true king allant isn’t great but its impact on the story really makes it hit better
DS1 could be described imo as "difficulty in simplicity" and I think the more recent games forget that sometimes. We need the balance between DS1s combat and the more recent which is just bosses spamming unlimited attacks like stamina is a word they dont know, plus having multiple health bars and hidden stages is annoying imo too. Just give it one health and make it really hard.
Soul of Cinder in 4th place is so valid, most people I have seen has put this in like 7th place when it comes to ds3 bosses, but he's definitely my favorite from the base game.
lol I remember being summoned as the old monk in the remake with an OP mage build so you get to move around a bit before the guy enters the fog gate so I hid behind the door so he exited the fog gate immediately into fire storm and died
Messmer is in my top 15, the only thing I really hate is his grab does a little too much damage and the one snack attack can clip out of the walls and makes it so you can't tell when to dodge Very minor nitpicks tho, it's such an incredible boss
The worst thing about Godskin Duo is that before Elden Ring, they managed to create an gank boss that was equally as good as O&S with The Demon Princes from Ringed City, and then they just decided "nah, instead of that. Have the Godskin Duo"
I beat Micolash first try by accidentally finding the mirror glitch so he only took me like 3 minutes 😂 Godskin Duo while not Ornstein and Smough is stupid easy because sleep pots exist, heavy sleep pots tho. My personal record with heavy sleep pots is only 1 minute and 15 seconds and I use frostbite, not bleed. I agree with everything else. Mohg is too easy with a bleed build and equipping his shackle, and if you want hella damage Marais Executioner Sword, with consecutive boosts and you'll have him dead before 2nd stage even starts.
Your critique throughout this video of “This boss would have been gassed in DS1 or 2 or 3” is kinda weird when you can say that about almost any decent boss in a future game going back to a older one. For example if you put Vordt of the boreal valley in DS1 people would say he’s a good boss, but that’s a no brainer because it’s a future boss with more polished move set. Just a weird defense of Elden Ring’s copy paste design you can use for almost anything if you want. A great video still I just thought that was odd.
Chained ogre and Phalanx that low, now I’m gonna have to keep thinking for the next hour how most bosses are somehow better, especially DS1’s terrible boss line up
He seems extremely strict with his ranking, for example he sings praise for iudex gundyr and he has him at the top of tier D and I like how he reserves the S tier for only top 5 bosses
So many people say true king Allant is bad but like, why? He shows you the sad state of the real king allant opposed to the heroic old king allant we fought previously. It’s not even like the presence of king allant robs you of a grand final fight, that’s already supplied by old king allant.
I ranked genichiro way of tomoe somewhat high but i didnt rank any of the inner bosses because i feel the same about them and their original counterparts so where ever i ranked the original, thats what i think about the inner version.
Only thing I completely disagree with is Fortissax, E tier boss. And on waterfowl in phase 1 it sort of acts a deterrent for the player to whale on her because of how easily staggered she is and because in phase 1 the move has like a 1 minute cool-down until she can’t next use you then know that you are safe to whale on her again . This is thrown out the window in phase 2 though because she is then able to spam it
My top 5 is very different from yours, I rank bosses from a mechanical perspective so it’s filled with Sekiro and ER bosses. Ds3 bosses are kinda unpolished because of how some of them have inconsistent follow ups which make them especially annoying to fight on challenge runs or NG+7.

Favorite is crazy, I will die on the hill that it's a overhated fight though. Really enjoyed it.
you are

Shouldn’t have included Sekiro mini-bosses IMO since they’re not designed to be full-fledged bosses, with maybe a couple of exceptions
Morgott at 9 is crazy work man
I don’t care if it’s only been 16 hours a video like this should have more than 900 views

Great video man!!
I really didn't think micolash was that bad
I will not tolerate shadows of Yharnam hate, unless you’re hating on the run back
We need this with and add of Elden Ring DLC bosses.
Now this, is epic
Nice list 😊
God skin duo is fun wdym?
Me when I can’t 5 shot every boss (it’s bad game design)
No way you put celestial emissary above the bell gargoyles
Dude this Magilou music from Tales of Berseria in the Intro hits different, never thought i would hear this anywhere haha

@@kruxman I clicked off not long after the Astrea ranking, but I saw a comment saying that he ranked Friede low and that's just a war crime
W on putting bloodborne bosses in yo he top 5. So many bloodborne hate recently

Godrick over pontiff is crazy
Sihn is in my top 5 for any boss in DS1,2,3 or Elden Ring (haven't played the other titles). My boy deserved better.
Great list, ofc I have some disagreements (e.g. Margit,Manus)
I have to commend you for undertaking such a challenge
Thanks
ARKADE The All Ranking
Maneaters slander will not be tolerated. At least a C tier boss at the minimum imo
Soul of Cinder in 4th place is so valid, most people I have seen has put this in like 7th place when it comes to ds3 bosses, but he's definitely my favorite from the base game.
god the slave knight ost slaps so hard.
lol I remember being summoned as the old monk in the remake with an OP mage build so you get to move around a bit before the guy enters the fog gate so I hid behind the door so he exited the fog gate immediately into fire storm and died
I had this playing while trying to fight malenia without summons. I literally beat her right after you gave her number 7
Here after the Elden Ring DLC Messmer the Impaler probably takes number one spot now
He is in the top 5 or maybe top 3 for now. I’m gonna remake the video so we’ll see
Messmer is in my top 15, the only thing I really hate is his grab does a little too much damage and the one snack attack can clip out of the walls and makes it so you can't tell when to dodge
Very minor nitpicks tho, it's such an incredible boss
rom above godskin duo is crazy
anything is above godskin duo
Did my guy just say Micolash’s difficulty is a 9? Like 9/10? oh my. This guy is ass
The worst thing about Godskin Duo is that before Elden Ring, they managed to create an gank boss that was equally as good as O&S with The Demon Princes from Ringed City, and then they just decided "nah, instead of that. Have the Godskin Duo"
Gael at #1, my man. I agree with all your choices for S rank.
Sick!
Finally someone who understands why the fire giant is so lackluster🤝 real pain in the ass to fight no matter what build you’re on
Put every ER duo boss right next to godskin duo lmao.
Maria at 3 is such a W
It's a good ranking and really enjoyable to watch due to the amazing commentary, BUT WHY IS ANCIENT DRAGON ABOVE SINH??
Do one but easiest to hardest
I mean, now you HAVE to update the video with the dlc bosses I guess
I will
The Demodcracy can now rest.
I beat Micolash first try by accidentally finding the mirror glitch so he only took me like 3 minutes 😂 Godskin Duo while not Ornstein and Smough is stupid easy because sleep pots exist, heavy sleep pots tho. My personal record with heavy sleep pots is only 1 minute and 15 seconds and I use frostbite, not bleed. I agree with everything else.

Am I really gonna sit on my ass for 2 hours about bosses in games that I’ve only played one of? Yes
After elden ring DLC messmer and rellana became one of my favourites
Ah i get it. You rank bosses based on personal emotions, not boss Design, creativity or lore. Nostalgia tierlist, finaly.
Ain't no fucking way
yeah if you fight radahn like a loser ofc he is not that great
I would personaly put Micolash higher because i find his personality entertaining
W mans his placement kinda irked me haha he’s overhated I love Micogoat he has my fav lines in all the games haha
Based Magilou music at the very start
Bed of Chaos isnt THAT bad
Your critique throughout this video of “This boss would have been gassed in DS1 or 2 or 3” is kinda weird when you can say that about almost any decent boss in a future game going back to a older one.

The new final boss has something to say about hardest soulsborne boss ever
Midir at 20 is a crime
to dodge the flurry attack maliketh does, just dodge behind him
Chained ogre and Phalanx that low, now I’m gonna have to keep thinking for the next hour how most bosses are somehow better, especially DS1’s terrible boss line up
Gael’s my favorite because I’ve never lost to him :)
I’d personally put mohg in S
He seems extremely strict with his ranking, for example he sings praise for iudex gundyr and he has him at the top of tier D and I like how he reserves the S tier for only top 5 bosses
Malenia in A tier..? Well as long as she isnt in S tier.
For Owl (father) taking too long: literally just use Nightjar Slash. That's it bro
Imagine liking royal knight Loretta. My G, stop cooking
she’s dope
Commander O'Neil is too passive aggressive lolol. He will make subtle remarks that will get under your skin the more you think about it.
So many people say true king Allant is bad but like, why? He shows you the sad state of the real king allant opposed to the heroic old king allant we fought previously.
It’s not even like the presence of king allant robs you of a grand final fight, that’s already supplied by old king allant.
You think any of the elden ring dlc bosses are cracking the top 10? I think Messmer might have slid in there for me
Well, now you gotta add the Elden Ring DLC to the list, because it will affect mostly the top of the list
I agree with most of that although what about Inner Isshin and Way of Tomoe Genishiro from the gauntlet? How do you feel about those two rank wise.
I ranked genichiro way of tomoe somewhat high but i didnt rank any of the inner bosses because i feel the same about them and their original counterparts so where ever i ranked the original, thats what i think about the inner version.
Oh I didn't see that one in the video, my bad but ok, I can get behind that.
Interesting choice to do this RIGHT before SOTE came out. Why didn't you just wait a month?
I hate these games but I'll still watch this entire video over 3 days.
skill issue
malenia gets F purely due to waterfowl dance
You couldn’t wait for the dlc didn’t you 💀
Only thing I completely disagree with is Fortissax, E tier boss.
