I've never worked so hard on one video before. My cringy edit program made this so hard to render omg😭If you enjoyed it, please consider sharing,liking or commenting it, I would greatly appreciate it and it helps me out a ton :) Hopefully you guys will like it 💜
@NELTI even tho he’s my second favorite small hk content creator you’re wrong, he’ll be dead by then because silksong is taking millions of years, he said it himself. Lowkey as good of a video as pure Vessel is a boss. Markoth is #45 because soul warrior isn’t a boss
Which bossfight was that? I missed the middle of the video and after seeing the comment checked the False Knight but it wasn't the one so I'm still curious
@@tg9521 Was the Joke about Traitor lord could be done in 10 seconds by a speedrunner and he isn't or yeah maybe Fluckemarm couse the reason put in first video
the hollow knight is probably my favourite boss fight of all time, i like pure vessel better in a raw gameplay perspective, but it's a masterclass in setting and storytelling
In my opinion the hollow night was easier than nosk I don't know why maybe I'm just bad game but I can't be bad at the game because I beat the hollow Knight on my third try but it took me 15 tries to beat nosk I don't know what the heck is going on maybe I'm just bad at the nosk fight
@@sirjuice1776 well true even Broken vessel was harder then Hollow knight BUT in term of lore sadness and epicness hollow knight is one of the best fight in the game the way the knight try to kill himself is so sad
your writing skills are absolutely outstanding for a creator of your size. despite the unpredictable jokes that never fail to surprise and entertain, the narrative is coherent and easy to follow. every word conveys love for this game (and hate for markoth). what couldve merely been the presentation of a simple list has become an interesting, thought out story in itself. I would not be surprised to see your name next to those "big hollow knight content creators" in just a few months. keep up the amazing work!
Your comment almost made me cry lmao. This means the absolute world to me and I'm super happy you liked it. I was even surprised myself at how good I was at script writing and telling stories. Anyway thanks for the amazing comment💜
About God Tamer, the fight remains relatively interesting with the rider dead, but if the rider existed without the beast her pattern would be identical to Toad Man's. I think the idea behind the fight is that the beast is the real boss, but the rider exists entirely to throw a wrench in the plan if you wanna rush down the beast since a ton of players will lose track of her, so a safer route would be to kill her first. As for lore-wise why the tamer goes down immediately once you kill the beast, I always assumed she had an attachment to the beast and thus breaks down in grief once you kill it.
Pure Vessel legitimately made me doubt if I can actually beat them, as it really felt like my reflexes were too slow. Ultimately I did win after like 40+ tries, but fk me if it wasn't the hardest battle I've fought in a game. Also, that feeling you described of fighting Soul Tyrant's last phase without the "necessary" upgrades and on one mask left... That's relatable. Thank you for another video McNugget
Same man base game pure vessel is the hardest boss I've ever fought in a game. If we are talking radiant fights absolute radiance took me like 300 hours so he was definitely harder than radiant pure vessel. Once I beat pure vessel on ascended I beat him like first try on radiant. Absolute radiance is easier when you have all that healing time however on radiant it's harder cause any hit in that random bullet hail and its over.
Dude this video is so smooth and exciting and feels like a breath of fresh air. Meaning it definitely took a part of your soul to create. Your sacrifice is appreciated.

Ever since completing PoP and discovering the fight, I've wished Pure Vessel was at the end (with a bench right before it of course). It would be such a perfect fit, and the Kingsmoulds feel so out of place at the end.
Great video! One quick lore thing. Traitor Lord is actually a boy since in the journel it says "he turned against his sisters and embraced the infection". Just thought I'd share!
I was afraid when I saw NKG #45 so I was releaved when I saw Winged Nosk :D Amazing video mate, I love your editing style and your determination at keeping making huge videos well scripted like this one for your size as a content creator ! Keep the great work :)
Sisters of Battle is my TOP 1 without any doubt ! The fight is intense, neither too easy neither too difficult. The rythm is perfect, we can hit something almost all the time and must avoid something almost all the time. No RNG like Absolut Radiance. No weird hitbox like Pure Vessel. No loss of time like NKG when he becomes a fat ball. And ... that absolute perfect music !
I love soul tyrant he is such a fun boss to fight and I always felt he was under appreciated lots of people just write him off with he’s got annoying attacks that’s just a skill issue he’s not easy or hard he’s just fun and that’s all a boss needs to be
ive recently??? started watching your videos, and i gotta say i havent found myself AUDIBLY laughing at a youtube video in years i swear. your editing style and use of sound effects is immaculate, never change my guy
Ngl, troupe master grimm is easily my favorite boss! It was one i lost quite a few times on in my first go around, but i was smiling and having fun through the whole fight! The music is amazing, the attacks are interesting and the right level of pressure when you first fight him!
Thank you for taking Markoth and putting him in the deepest part of the well. He deserves it, we deserved more than random swords and that fkin void. Is the only boss that i dont have in radiance (+pure vessel, absolute radiance and nightmare grimm) but those doesnt counts because i have life outside videogames, naaah just kidding i have not, but OMG I don't want the little hair I have left to fall out
Its so nice to hear casual perspectives, as much as I love speedrunners their experiences aren’t relateable because of their immense amount of skill, they are really nice and I have a lot of respect for them but they’ll go “I love absolute radiance so much, even more because I get a nice few warm up fight for all of my 100% successful pantheon 5 runs! very easy big moth”
The Markoth fight with the floor is REALLY EASY but without the floor it gets into the TOP 5 of the difficulty ranking, plus it gets less fun than before, his random pattern is annoying AF and the worst part is that I died at least as much time if not more time to the missing floor or by him suddenly changing direction and rushing his body against me than I died from his F***ING ATTACKS...
Your channel is extremely underrated and deserves more fame. I find your videos and humor really funny and practical because I how you put stuff in a casual perspective. I hope you absolutely pop off soon because you definitely deserve it. gl.
I really liked that you didnt put the early fights at the bottom exclusively for being easy/simple. Editing and jokes were funny too. Great video, keep it up!
@@genio2509 I wrote a cringy essay in like 6th or 7th grade over why Hollow Knight had a great intro sequence and False Knight was a large part of that. Am I proud of it? No, I should have known that nobody was interested. But goddamnit this is a good game :’)
@@kitkitkatkit That's something I'd absolutely do, maybe next text will be about HK. On English class (I'm from Mexico) I wrote in a sentence that part of my plans for the future are P5 hitless. Nobody heard it :(
You defeated Grimm first try and saying you're a casual player?! Man, wtf, I had to glitch myself through this fight (and some others) to finish it. Amazing video as always Nugget. Love your humor, editing and Pure hate for Marcoth. I hate this fight too, it's boring as bench in hall of gods. I can't rank them all, but I would definitely put Soul Master, Hive Knight low too. The areas they are in are tough, benches are 100 km away from fight and surrounded by 100 enemies. Soul Sanctum gives me nightmare flashbacks. My favorite is The Hollow Knight because it was the most emotional fight. Poor boi knight :( Great video, thank you. Pantheon 5 next?🙃
37:46 Uhhh no, true ending says our knight is the true pure vessel. He was chosen but chosen wrong because had feelings and was corrupted while we are the soulless empty shell supposed to be strong enough to defeat the infection/Radiance (And we did). That's why he loses to us tho
a tip for nkg, when he does the dash down onto you, instead of pogoing or anything, just attack him twice when he first hits the ground, then shodow dash through him
@@MilesNugget you can attack twice and then dash through him before he even dashes across the ground, it doesn't seem possible but it is trust me (also I would suggest using sharp shadow, as it increases your dash length)
6:47 Actually in the pantheons gruz mother is a bit of a relief, because if you actually know how to not get hit by gruz mother it is just a lot of free soul
milesnugget. YOU ARE MY FAVORITE HOLLOW KNIGHT YOURUBER GANG IVE WATCHED ALL YOUR VIDEOS SO MANY TIMES AND YOUR THE FUNNIEST DUDE EVERRR as a female with 400+ hours on hollow knighy and still can’t beat pantheon 5 and either gets my ass beat by nkg or abs radiance OR SLY. i was so happy to see pure vessel since it’s my favorite boss. AND BRO YOU CANT BELIEVE HOW MANY TIMES IVE WATCHED THIS VIDEO AND STILL LAUGH. i know i commented abit late but HOPEFULLY you shall see this. you and windette got me thru my hard dark days in deepnest which i was terribly scared of because of my arachnophobia. so thanks windette for insulting me about it. YOUR SO COOL MILES🙏🙏🙏 hopefully you shall respond even tho i have now built up the courage to comment.
Welldone on a fantastic video!! You are so freaking entertaining to listen to and watch your well crafted videos! Your humor is on point, and your editing is hilarious and super clever! Please keep posted, your helping the wait until silksong be so much more enjoyable!
We waited for this video so long and it was worth it, thank for the quality. I really enjoyed this video and it’s so good, so I can rewatch this video later. What’s the outro song? I hope this video goes viral aswell! ^^ you can do the area ranking tier list, I’m hype for it
"Loyal protector of the Hive's Queen. Flightless but ferocious in battle" (Hive Knight, Hunter's Journal) I shall argue with a stranger on the internet about a video game. The Hive Knight is "flightless," so it could not fly out of the screen.
I recently got to play Hollow Knight for the first time, so i havent fought all the bosses from the list, but oh boy i couldnt relate more about the soul tyrant :D I had almost the same situation as u described, and only after few hours of trying him i thought: "Maybe i should have double jump for this fight". Got to be the most memorable fight from my playthrough :) Also, i love the mantis lords
Pure vessels is just amazing. He js my fav too. The music background and everything is amazing. I got radiant on all bosses but pure vessel is the only boss i played multiple time in radiant because its just that fun. Its just so much fun
I fucking love the mantis fight. It was my first 'oh shit, let's go' moment with hollow knight. Just well timed dodges, healing and combat. A fight that will stick out for me for a while to come.
Gotta say, I'm a really big fan of your humor and editing and I mostly agree with most of the placements on this list, now waiting for the Ranking all types of grass video. Oh and I don't think anyone ever had to heal against Marmu, at least not his normal fight outside the Pantheons. Edit: Really creative #1 pick, never seen that one before on a list. Just kidding, love it too.
I was shocked to see your sub count after watching, you’re way too good at making content to not gain significantly more popularity soon if you continue putting this much thought/effort into your work! Now I have to go binge watch everything on your channel lol, please keep up the good work!
Absolutely agree with nkg, can't imagine a more epic, desperation inducing and satisfying boss, probably at my top 1 but still haven't fought pure vessel and absolute radiance só idk
Fun fact: The Oblobbles projectiles aren't actually randomized. Their bullets shoot in 4 directions at once making a cross formation and to best visualize it; just think of it as a spinning cross that shoots bullets. Still bullet hell tho. I personally just cheesed the radiant fight by spamming Grubberfly so I wouldn't have to go anywhere near them.
I learned that in the radiant fight still the placements and the bullets are hard to predict sometimes. Grubberfly would've been actually good I pogoed them into specific easy to dodge locations
For the god tamer, I would always kill the beast first but the Tamer wouldn’t just give up, he would still fight, I surprised that he just gives up in the clip
Abs rad is completely skill imo, there’s always multiple ways to approach an attack and the only way you can get unlucky is due to glitches which is unfortunate but yeah I don’t really struggle with her
Absrad easily the best fight in the game imo. So many ways to approach her, literally 0 RNG unlike what people want you to believe, amazing final phase where you can pogo on her (how cool is that?). Only gripe with her is that some projectiles are hard to see because of the bright background, which is fair.
ok listen, I clicked on this video because I am having withdraws from not having enough hollow knight content. had low expectations. I would go as far as saying this is in my top three for best hollow knight videos EVER. was laughing the whole time and I thank you for that. subbed and liked and now commented. I love you. (also btw I died to sentinel hornet on steal soul so I have a grudge 😭😭😭) mantis lords are number 2 for me but I can't argue with science so whaaaat can I do.
@@MilesNugget I know how hard it is to make videos this long. The editing is insane and normally I would say not worth it but you are legitimately funny!! Keep up the good work!!
Coming back to this video after seeing your short, Im sorry you didnt enjoy making this to the fullest. I just want to say, without pressuring you, that you still made this incredibly well and seem very enthusiastic. I hope that you are proud of your work because it is still a quality video and one of my comfort videos
I don't get why everybody hates Markoth. I think he does a good job to make sure you're always moving and the little time you have to heal makes you focus more on spells.
I'm apparently better then MilesNugget because I beat p5. Yipee. Ur my favorite content creator and the inspiration for my channel. Thank you for being an awsome and funny youtuber.
Great video miles nice job! This deserves so much more credit then it has by the way I love soul tyrant too it’s such a fun and hard boss fight best of both worlds. Keep it up! 😊
Reasons why the Eternal Ordeal is better than Pure Vessel. Reason 1-Variety It is true that gradually Pure Vessel receives 2 more attacks: Focus and Void Tendrils. But in the eternal ordeal, when you kill zotelings and more zotelings, it receives 9 MORE ZOTELINGS. You may think: But certainly Pure Vessel has more attacks than the number of zotelings in the eternal ord- WRONG. Pure Vessel has a total of 8 attacks while the Eternal Ordeal has a total of 10 zotelings. Reason 2- Reward Pure Vessel can give you a imense reward feel when you beat him, specially in the fifth pantheon after countless tries dying to Mark(oth) without even reaching Pure Vessel at first place. But in the Eternal Ordeal, you don't need to -beg for meycy- fight Mark(oth) to reach the challenge. You just need to do a funny little parkour. Once you reach the 57 zotelings mark the Zote statue will turn golden and then when you go back to the menu you will be contemplated with a beautiful Zote statue with a beautiful Zote cover of the tittle screen theme. Meanwhile Pure Vessel only makes you either unlock the Pantheon of -Mark(oth)- Hallownest or fight Absolute Radiance, wich, if you fail, you will need to fight all the bosses including Mark(oth). Reason 3- Backstory. Pure Vessel's backstory is such a cliche. His story started with Radiance making a plague, then the Pale King made countless children to make them corrupted by void and then sacrificing them to absorb all the plague. Then Pure Vessel is chosen because the Pale King thought he was pure. Then he trained his son and sacrificed him. Turns out that the Pure Vessel wasn't truly Pure Vessel he was the Hollow Knight all this time so after a while the plague returned and then the Pale King rage quitted making him and all his palace being maintained inside the dreams of one of his guards. While Zote? Zote is a mistery. We don't know if he is an ancient god, due to all his knowledge contained in his 57 precepts. Or if he is the true dad of all the knight's siblings including the knight itself, due to the strong similarities of Zote and the knight. He also has the strange abilitiy to turn himself a god in everyone's dreams. Seem in godhome, Zote can not only include his Gray Prince version in the hall of gods but also he can make A LITERAL ETERNAL ORDEAL where there is only Zotelings, including a Zoteling that can LITERALLY DRAIN SOUL OUT OF HIS ENEMIES. Zote is truly one of the biggest and most important Hollow Knight's misteries. Reason 4- Zote Zote.
Omg😭 Truly some inspiring reasoning, I can't believe I used Zote as a joke for my number 1 spot and instead put a mid boss there that only unlocks a pantheon that I don't even like. Reason 4 really pushed it over the edge, thanks for informing me🤝
I've never worked so hard on one video before. My cringy edit program made this so hard to render omg😭If you enjoyed it, please consider sharing,liking or commenting it, I would greatly appreciate it and it helps me out a ton :)

@NELTI even tho he’s my second favorite small hk content creator you’re wrong, he’ll be dead by then because silksong is taking millions of years, he said it himself. Lowkey as good of a video as pure Vessel is a boss. Markoth is #45 because soul warrior isn’t a boss
The soul master forcing you to cross the entire universe just to fight him again:
Hahahaha😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
This is the most relatable thing ever
Atleast the dream version is better at that 😭
@@pwr4 that's why I hate Soul master but not Soul tyrant, in fact soul tyrant is in my top ten favourite hollow knight bosses.
Soul Master is nothing to me if I wasnt forced to cross the entire city of tears just to die on his ground slam again (same with Mantis Lords)
Or just shade skip to dream nail after getting claw, which also gives you easy access to to kings station early
This was a master piece. "The fight only lasts ten seconds, but that doesn't mean I didn't enjoy those ten seconds."

Okay
Ever since completing PoP and discovering the fight, I've wished Pure Vessel was at the end (with a bench right before it of course). It would be such a perfect fit, and the Kingsmoulds feel so out of place at the end.
You are the definition of an underrated RUclipsr. I absolutely love the editing style and jokes in your videos. Keep up the great work!
Thank you so much man! :))
Great video! One quick lore thing. Traitor Lord is actually a boy since in the journel it says "he turned against his sisters and embraced the infection". Just thought I'd share!
I was afraid when I saw NKG #45 so I was releaved when I saw Winged Nosk :D Amazing video mate, I love your editing style and your determination at keeping making huge videos well scripted like this one for your size as a content creator ! Keep the great work :)
Thanks so much man, I appreciate it :) and of course I couldn't do my boy NKG like that hahaha
Sisters of Battle is my TOP 1 without any doubt !
The fight is intense, neither too easy neither too difficult.
The rythm is perfect, we can hit something almost all the time and must avoid something almost all the time.
No RNG like Absolut Radiance.
No weird hitbox like Pure Vessel.
No loss of time like NKG when he becomes a fat ball.
And ... that absolute perfect music !
Sisters of battle are indeed very good, I don't blame you for putting them at number 1 🤝
I love it when you get into the rhythm and don’t touch the ground for like a solid minute
Fr, u can just stay pogoing for so long. My favorite too
How does PV have weird hitboxes?
Just like the pure vessel is the perfect boss
I think this is the perfect hollow knight ranking video! I enjoyed every minute of it!!
Awwww thank you so much. That means the world to me after I spend so long on this video :)
i always love finding small youtubers with actually good content and editing
Big W😎
THANK YOU for validating my love for soul master/tyrant, they’re seriously under-appreciated bosses.
No worries, I'm here to do justice🤝
I love soul tyrant he is such a fun boss to fight and I always felt he was under appreciated lots of people just write him off with he’s got annoying attacks that’s just a skill issue he’s not easy or hard he’s just fun and that’s all a boss needs to be
@@Randomperson-qp7cvsoul tyrant is fun but under appreciated? Eh he’s good but nothing to write home about nothing to do with difficulty

ive recently??? started watching your videos, and i gotta say i havent found myself AUDIBLY laughing at a youtube video in years i swear. your editing style and use of sound effects is immaculate, never change my guy
Awww thank you so much, im glad you like my stuff😭🙏🙏💜💜💜💜
@@MilesNugget thanks for all the content so far, cant wait to see what you have coming up in the future 💜
Ngl, troupe master grimm is easily my favorite boss! It was one i lost quite a few times on in my first go around, but i was smiling and having fun through the whole fight! The music is amazing, the attacks are interesting and the right level of pressure when you first fight him!
I’m rewatching this legendary video. So beautiful 🥹
Fun fact. The mantis in the middle chair in the sisters of battle fight is the last one to go back in their chair when you beat the sisters of battle
Thank you for taking Markoth and putting him in the deepest part of the well. He deserves it, we deserved more than random swords and that fkin void. Is the only boss that i dont have in radiance (+pure vessel, absolute radiance and nightmare grimm) but those doesnt counts because i have life outside videogames, naaah just kidding i have not, but OMG I don't want the little hair I have left to fall out
HAHAHA of course man. I did eveything I could to destroy Markoth in this video💪🏽💪🏽
If you use dash slash and look up a video of someone doing it radiant it's not too impossible; I got it at about 2/3 bosses done radiant.
I love markoth
@@gustavomaia4462 incorrect opinion. My PTSD from griding for radiant markoth is never going away
Its so nice to hear casual perspectives, as much as I love speedrunners their experiences aren’t relateable because of their immense amount of skill, they are really nice and I have a lot of respect for them but they’ll go “I love absolute radiance so much, even more because I get a nice few warm up fight for all of my 100% successful pantheon 5 runs! very easy big moth”
You're killing it bro... Loved the video... Awesome editing, great humor.. and I have to say .. I think your list was pretty spot on...
That means the world to me man :)💜
all the comments about you being underrated is true, your humor is 10/10, funny as hell video, continue with the great work
Thanks so much man :)))
The Markoth fight with the floor is REALLY EASY but without the floor it gets into the TOP 5 of the difficulty ranking, plus it gets less fun than before, his random pattern is annoying AF and the worst part is that I died at least as much time if not more time to the missing floor or by him suddenly changing direction and rushing his body against me than I died from his F***ING ATTACKS...
You just got yourself a vip ticket to the Markoth hate club🤝
Man radiant markoth was really annoying and charm binding pantheon 4 & 5 markoth ended my runs.
“Top 5 of difficulty list”
It’s harder than Absrad to me (actually not joking)
Agree
Ngl im pretty sure I *no hit* markoth in his normal encounter but I practically was superglued to the floor
Your channel is extremely underrated and deserves more fame. I find your videos and humor really funny and practical because I how you put stuff in a casual perspective. I hope you absolutely pop off soon because you definitely deserve it. gl.
That's so nice of you. I'm glad you like my stuff :)
this was such a great video. good job, really liked it and laughed a lot.
NKG is my favorite boss ❤ once you memorize those patterns, you feel like such a beast fighting him. radiant mode didn’t stand a CHANCE 🔛🔝
NKG for the WINNNN!!!!
I really liked that you didnt put the early fights at the bottom exclusively for being easy/simple. Editing and jokes were funny too. Great video, keep it up!
Yay, thank you man :) And yeah some harder fights just straight up suck in comparison to the easier ones.
False knight is underrated. As you said, the perfect introduction to boss fights
@@genio2509 I wrote a cringy essay in like 6th or 7th grade over why Hollow Knight had a great intro sequence and False Knight was a large part of that. Am I proud of it? No, I should have known that nobody was interested. But goddamnit this is a good game :’)
@@kitkitkatkit That's something I'd absolutely do, maybe next text will be about HK.
On English class (I'm from Mexico) I wrote in a sentence that part of my plans for the future are P5 hitless. Nobody heard it :(
You really outdone yourself man, this ranking video is amazing. MASSIVE W B)
Only big W's on this channel🤝
@@MilesNugget yes sir 🤝
1 year later and this is in my opinion one of your best videos you made!
You defeated Grimm first try and saying you're a casual player?! Man, wtf, I had to glitch myself through this fight (and some others) to finish it. Amazing video as always Nugget. Love your humor, editing and Pure hate for Marcoth. I hate this fight too, it's boring as bench in hall of gods.
I can't rank them all, but I would definitely put Soul Master, Hive Knight low too. The areas they are in are tough, benches are 100 km away from fight and surrounded by 100 enemies. Soul Sanctum gives me nightmare flashbacks. My favorite is The Hollow Knight because it was the most emotional fight. Poor boi knight :(
Great video, thank you. Pantheon 5 next?🙃
I'm glad you liked it :)
And yeah idk how I did Grimm first try, but I guess I'm just that good 😎
And uhhh pantheon 5, uhhh I'm still too scared😭
Nice video! I'm not a fan of soul tyrant personally but you put up a good case for it. I agree with you on the number 1 ranking. Liked and subbed
Hahaha thank you man :)
#0. Primal Aspid.
I mean yeah, its basicly a boss
37:46 Uhhh no, true ending says our knight is the true pure vessel. He was chosen but chosen wrong because had feelings and was corrupted while we are the soulless empty shell supposed to be strong enough to defeat the infection/Radiance (And we did). That's why he loses to us tho
a tip for nkg, when he does the dash down onto you, instead of pogoing or anything, just attack him twice when he first hits the ground, then shodow dash through him
Wait that is possible? I thought the fire trail was too long to dash through it😭
@@MilesNugget you can attack twice and then dash through him before he even dashes across the ground, it doesn't seem possible but it is trust me
(also I would suggest using sharp shadow, as it increases your dash length)
6:47 Actually in the pantheons gruz mother is a bit of a relief, because if you actually know how to not get hit by gruz mother it is just a lot of free soul
I just love that i can immidiately hear the dutch accent. Geweldige video!
It is impossible to hide it, it's too easy to spot😭
This video is so well done. Very much looking forward to binging your other content. Subscribed!
Next, all musik and ambiances. XD. Your videos are great.
Thanks so much man. 💜 (and uhh let's not start a new ranking video right away shall we💀)
@@MilesNugget Silksong is going to give so much content to everyone. Very excited for all the videos that will be Made when the game is out. :)
@@Ever_green2021 i'm also really excited. Especially to just you know... play the game hahaha😭
those 40 mins genuinely felt like 15, jokes were hilarious lmao keep up the good work
Thank you man, I appreciate it :)
“Amazing acid spam. Oh I love that!” 😂
im only 5 mins in and ive never felt more seen, heard, and validated in my life
you didn't rank zote the mighty, now you must make "So apparently there are 47 bosses in hollow knight"
Don't challenge me hahaha😵
milesnugget. YOU ARE MY FAVORITE HOLLOW KNIGHT YOURUBER GANG IVE WATCHED ALL YOUR VIDEOS SO MANY TIMES AND YOUR THE FUNNIEST DUDE EVERRR as a female with 400+ hours on hollow knighy and still can’t beat pantheon 5 and either gets my ass beat by nkg or abs radiance OR SLY. i was so happy to see pure vessel since it’s my favorite boss. AND BRO YOU CANT BELIEVE HOW MANY TIMES IVE WATCHED THIS VIDEO AND STILL LAUGH. i know i commented abit late but HOPEFULLY you shall see this. you and windette got me thru my hard dark days in deepnest which i was terribly scared of because of my arachnophobia. so thanks windette for insulting me about it. YOUR SO COOL MILES🙏🙏🙏 hopefully you shall respond even tho i have now built up the courage to comment.
Amazing to hear :) Glad you like my videos so much
@@MilesNugget YIIIPPPIEEEE OFCOURSE GANG
If you need tips for NKG, I can give some (if you want pls tell me)
Daym do you give an heart to every single comment? pure dedication
I try :)
This video is fucking amazing. You deserve a sub.
Welldone on a fantastic video!! You are so freaking entertaining to listen to and watch your well crafted videos! Your humor is on point, and your editing is hilarious and super clever! Please keep posted, your helping the wait until silksong be so much more enjoyable!
I'm glad my efforts are appreciated, thanks man :)
I've never laughed so much since a bird flew against my window. No joke it was so fun to watch this video. I appreciate your work.
Thanks you so much man. That means a lot to me :)💜
We waited for this video so long and it was worth it, thank for the quality. I really enjoyed this video and it’s so good, so I can rewatch this video later. What’s the outro song? I hope this video goes viral aswell! ^^ you can do the area ranking tier list, I’m hype for it
Thank you so much man, I hope it goes viral as well :)
The outro song is from Ultimate Angler - Today's results
yo your soul tyrant experience was literally the EXACT same as mine, love that guy
I died to bushy "on puropse" many times for him to feel better
Love for bush💜💜💜
Great video loved every single minute
21:41 YES IT'S THE G.O.A.T THE ABSOLUTE BEST YEEEEEEAAH
Doma Doma,
Doma Doma Doma Doma!

I loved hearing your opinions and the entire video was really smooth :)
Thank you so much :)💜
Great video man
Thanks so much :)
And idk if I'm able to beat p5, I just don't have the grindset for it😭
@@MilesNugget yeah I feel you dude, it was the same for me too. Just do it when you feel like it :)
@@MilesNugget You don't have to beat P5, you just have to make it to the end of the pantheon and then she's unlocked the hall of gods.
The ending after that kinda sucks though.
First video of yours that I have seen. When I looked at your subscriber amount I was shocked. Amazing work and I hope the best for you.
Thank you so much man :)💜
My man I ain't gonna lie, I did 2 steel soul runs and in both of them I was very close to dying to flukemarm, like 1 mask left close
Well I mean flukemarm is really annoying when you can't kill her minions in 1 hit😵
I died to the last kingsmold of Path of Pain on steel sould :/
That was after I did P5AB, it made me so mad. (Not the same file).
The video of all time!1!!1!1!!🔥🔥🔥
🤩🤩thank you!!
the hive Knight isn't teleporting he's flying out of the screen
"Loyal protector of the Hive's Queen. Flightless but ferocious in battle" (Hive Knight, Hunter's Journal) I shall argue with a stranger on the internet about a video game. The Hive Knight is "flightless," so it could not fly out of the screen.
Team Cherry could make Massive Moss Charger legitimately worrying to some people if they just took off recoil.
I know right, it would be literally harder than AbsRad
You could still pogo it if it's not doing its jump attack
I recently got to play Hollow Knight for the first time, so i havent fought all the bosses from the list, but oh boy i couldnt relate more about the soul tyrant :D I had almost the same situation as u described, and only after few hours of trying him i thought: "Maybe i should have double jump for this fight". Got to be the most memorable fight from my playthrough :) Also, i love the mantis lords
Pure vessels is just amazing. He js my fav too. The music background and everything is amazing.
I got radiant on all bosses but pure vessel is the only boss i played multiple time in radiant because its just that fun. Its just so much fun
Exactly, just an amazing fight :)
Always good to meet another Massive Moss Charger enjoyer 👑😎
You have such a fun energy, and I love your editing ❤
💜💜💜
3:02 u had me at first ngl, was ready to throw some hands
I fucking love the mantis fight.
It was my first 'oh shit, let's go' moment with hollow knight.
Just well timed dodges, healing and combat.
A fight that will stick out for me for a while to come.
I love how consistent it feels, like you’re looping the same order of attacks over and over again and it gives the fight 🎵 RHYTHM 🎵
Gotta say, I'm a really big fan of your humor and editing and I mostly agree with most of the placements on this list, now waiting for the Ranking all types of grass video. Oh and I don't think anyone ever had to heal against Marmu, at least not his normal fight outside the Pantheons.
Edit: Really creative #1 pick, never seen that one before on a list. Just kidding, love it too.
Really glad you liked it :))
I was shocked to see your sub count after watching, you’re way too good at making content to not gain significantly more popularity soon if you continue putting this much thought/effort into your work! Now I have to go binge watch everything on your channel lol, please keep up the good work!
Well in my opinion my channel is gaining popularity like crazy, I have never achieved so much with youtube 😭💜 but I'm glad you like my stuff :)
funny and well edited video amazing job man
Thank you so much man :)
I choose to ascend with Gorb
Absolutely agree with nkg, can't imagine a more epic, desperation inducing and satisfying boss, probably at my top 1 but still haven't fought pure vessel and absolute radiance só idk
Fun fact: The Oblobbles projectiles aren't actually randomized. Their bullets shoot in 4 directions at once making a cross formation and to best visualize it; just think of it as a spinning cross that shoots bullets. Still bullet hell tho. I personally just cheesed the radiant fight by spamming Grubberfly so I wouldn't have to go anywhere near them.
Yeah Oblobbels is just so annoying😭
I learned that in the radiant fight still the placements and the bullets are hard to predict sometimes. Grubberfly would've been actually good I pogoed them into specific easy to dodge locations
Thank you for making a boss tier list that isn’t a difficulty tier list
For the god tamer, I would always kill the beast first but the Tamer wouldn’t just give up, he would still fight, I surprised that he just gives up in the clip
Man is zoizo een Nederlander, wel leuke vid moet ik toegeven, hollow knight is gwn bijna perfect
Abs rad is completely skill imo, there’s always multiple ways to approach an attack and the only way you can get unlucky is due to glitches which is unfortunate but yeah I don’t really struggle with her
Yeah it was hard to rank her if I've never experienced that fight, but I think a number 5 was still a good placement :)
@@MilesNugget ah makes sense, it’s quite fun so hope you get to play it one day! :)
Absrad easily the best fight in the game imo. So many ways to approach her, literally 0 RNG unlike what people want you to believe, amazing final phase where you can pogo on her (how cool is that?). Only gripe with her is that some projectiles are hard to see because of the bright background, which is fair.
@@MrPatrickbuit There is by definition RNG, her attacks come out in a random order...But every fight in the game has RNG so that doesn't say anything.
@@legrandliseurtri7495 What I mean is that not a single pattern is unavoidable because of RNG unlike what a lot of people say. Obviously there’s RNG.
ok listen, I clicked on this video because I am having withdraws from not having enough hollow knight content. had low expectations. I would go as far as saying this is in my top three for best hollow knight videos EVER. was laughing the whole time and I thank you for that. subbed and liked and now commented. I love you. (also btw I died to sentinel hornet on steal soul so I have a grudge 😭😭😭) mantis lords are number 2 for me but I can't argue with science so whaaaat can I do.
Dude, that means the world to me :)💜 Thank you so much
@@MilesNugget I know how hard it is to make videos this long. The editing is insane and normally I would say not worth it but you are legitimately funny!! Keep up the good work!!
@@MilesNugget Aw dang it I corrected the grammar and it took my heart 😭
@@zteir I'll reheart all your comments >:)
@@MilesNugget 😈😈😈🤣🤣🤣 I love you bro you are so funny lol
He had me in the 1st half with nkg
I legit thought he was gonna be 45th place
Muhahahah😈
Coming back to this video after seeing your short, Im sorry you didnt enjoy making this to the fullest. I just want to say, without pressuring you, that you still made this incredibly well and seem very enthusiastic. I hope that you are proud of your work because it is still a quality video and one of my comfort videos
I don't get why everybody hates Markoth. I think he does a good job to make sure you're always moving and the little time you have to heal makes you focus more on spells.
I just have a passionate hatred for Markoth, we have a lot of beef with each other
Markoth is the biggest narcist I have ever seen....
also he likes kids
I don't think he's as bad as people say, but it's a pretty tedious and boring fight to me. I'd still put in the bottom ten.
Play P5 or try to beat it on radiant
@@estefaniamanas6859 i did beat it on radiant, but I’m not near good enough to try P5 lol
I'm apparently better then MilesNugget because I beat p5. Yipee. Ur my favorite content creator and the inspiration for my channel. Thank you for being an awsome and funny youtuber.
Massive moss charger sad 😢
Great video miles nice job! This deserves so much more credit then it has by the way I love soul tyrant too it’s such a fun and hard boss fight best of both worlds. Keep it up! 😊
3:08 bro i literally wanted to close the video lol.
I came in for a ranking but this so much better than expected... I love your humor and montage :)
This just got recommended to me. Salt in the wound.
BROODING mawlek
“HE’S not terrible”
Reasons why the Eternal Ordeal is better than Pure Vessel.
Reason 1-Variety
It is true that gradually Pure Vessel receives 2 more attacks: Focus and Void Tendrils. But in the eternal ordeal, when you kill zotelings and more zotelings, it receives 9 MORE ZOTELINGS. You may think: But certainly Pure Vessel has more attacks than the number of zotelings in the eternal ord- WRONG. Pure Vessel has a total of 8 attacks while the Eternal Ordeal has a total of 10 zotelings.
Reason 2- Reward
Pure Vessel can give you a imense reward feel when you beat him, specially in the fifth pantheon after countless tries dying to Mark(oth) without even reaching Pure Vessel at first place. But in the Eternal Ordeal, you don't need to -beg for meycy- fight Mark(oth) to reach the challenge. You just need to do a funny little parkour. Once you reach the 57 zotelings mark the Zote statue will turn golden and then when you go back to the menu you will be contemplated with a beautiful Zote statue with a beautiful Zote cover of the tittle screen theme. Meanwhile Pure Vessel only makes you either unlock the Pantheon of -Mark(oth)- Hallownest or fight Absolute Radiance, wich, if you fail, you will need to fight all the bosses including Mark(oth).
Reason 3- Backstory.
Pure Vessel's backstory is such a cliche. His story started with Radiance making a plague, then the Pale King made countless children to make them corrupted by void and then sacrificing them to absorb all the plague. Then Pure Vessel is chosen because the Pale King thought he was pure. Then he trained his son and sacrificed him. Turns out that the Pure Vessel wasn't truly Pure Vessel he was the Hollow Knight all this time so after a while the plague returned and then the Pale King rage quitted making him and all his palace being maintained inside the dreams of one of his guards.
While Zote? Zote is a mistery. We don't know if he is an ancient god, due to all his knowledge contained in his 57 precepts. Or if he is the true dad of all the knight's siblings including the knight itself, due to the strong similarities of Zote and the knight. He also has the strange abilitiy to turn himself a god in everyone's dreams. Seem in godhome, Zote can not only include his Gray Prince version in the hall of gods but also he can make A LITERAL ETERNAL ORDEAL where there is only Zotelings, including a Zoteling that can LITERALLY DRAIN SOUL OUT OF HIS ENEMIES. Zote is truly one of the biggest and most important Hollow Knight's misteries.
Reason 4- Zote
Zote.
Omg😭
Truly some inspiring reasoning, I can't believe I used Zote as a joke for my number 1 spot and instead put a mid boss there that only unlocks a pantheon that I don't even like.
Reason 4 really pushed it over the edge, thanks for informing me🤝
@@MilesNugget You're welcome. I'm glad that you now see the truth.
THE DUTCH HOLLOW KNIGHT COMMUNITY IS ALIVE AND WELL!
i love how you can just instantly hear dutch people when speaking english.
SHHHHHTTTTT nobody can know🤫🤫🤫🤫🤫
Mr. Mark Moth deserves nothing but pain and suffering
Bro your channel is so good! 🔥 kept ip the great work!
Thanks man, I appreciate it🤝🤝:)
Holy shit someone who agrees with me on soul tyrant!??!!??
Yessir🤩🤩
Let’s just appreciate how the right mantis dies first and the middle one last each time in the sisters of battle fight
