@@AshdaMinish2650 Of course he is serious.... If you beat any fromsoft game with anything but your bare fists, no healing, no dodging, no armor, you basically cheesed your way through the game. What? You are using a game mechanic that lowers the difficulty of the game like dodging??? I am sorry but you didn't "really" beat the game properly....
It was similar for me when I saw it. He leaped up and I was looking for him, about a second later I realized what it was and uttered “Fromsoft you didn’t.” They did.
Beating an elden ring boss is almost like the feeling of taking your mom's painkillers. You feel completely invincible and then you get slapped seconds later
I don’t think you’ve truly felt the Soulsborne experience until you’ve nearly broken a controller and used every ounce of restraint in your body, mind and soul to NOT BREAK THE $60-$80 CONTROLLER
It’s amazing both of elden rings final bosses have a incredibly fun first phase in radagon and promised consort radahn and then a aoe spam second phase in elden beast and radahn consort of miquella
Dear Zanny, you are not a failure, even Michealzaki himself used summons to beat the game! The fact that you use every bit of your strength to beat the boss actually honors them with a worthy battle. You are as awesome as any tarnished warrior can be!
@@DeViL3R666 nothing unfair about fighting an unfair boss with bullshit movesets. Radahn literally spams huge aoe magic attack combos and you're forced to roll like a vermin with ds3 speed. Nah man, I'm done wit all these delayed attacks and huge aoe magic one shot moves where you can't even see what's going on.
@@DeViL3R666 not really using summon don't do much in DLC as the boss immediately targets you anyway but in the end of the day it depends on the build on what boss and using summons is fine Even Let me solo her said use everything, even summons makes it forgiving while you try to memorize their moveset
Well played Zanny that was masterfully fought For anyone still struggling with radahn I wanted to post some general advice that I found helped me a lot in his fight 1. The timings for combos between phase 1 and phase 2 are basically identical so if you can master his move set in phase 1 you can demolish him in phase 2 just watch the position of his arms before he launches an attack as that’s the most clear indicator I found to determine when his combo ends 2. Do (not) run away. Radahn has a lot of reach and is hyper aggressive so panic rolling/running away from him is guaranteed to fuck you over 3. Try not to summon while learning the boss. One of the biggest issues I’ve seen people have is the boss switching targets mid combo which causes them to get blindsided and panic since they haven’t learned the move set so for the first few learner runs try and go in solo to get a feel for his timings and combos before bringing in summons if you want/need the extra dps and someone else to take aggro for you 4. Violate Radahn’s personal space harder than miquella already has. Sticking close to Radahn’s right leg and groin specifically seems to not only bait out the most punishable combos in his move set but it also keeps you safe from the trailing light attacks while letting you see what’s gonna happen next 5. Stay calm. The biggest killer in this fight is panic especially in phase 2 where it feels like he’s going full “random bullshit go” mode but you’ve already got everything you need to excel at this point so take a deep breath and put the poor general and mohg out of his misery and send miquella to juvenile detention where he belongs 6. Play how you want to. Do not feel bad about pulling up a cheese build if everything else fails or if you just want to be done with it there is no shame in beating the boss on your own terms in the way you find the most enjoyable same goes for using summons both player and npc I hope this helps someone who is either still struggling with the boss or preparing to face him for the first time you can do it :)
Then you got some salty mofos being like, "Just because you beat the boss with summons and cheese builds, doesn't make you a good player. You do not have skill therefore you are not good at the game. You must beat the game as it was meant to be played by 1v1ing the bosses." This advice you gave me makes me feel a lot better so thank you.
I beat him a week ago after 4 whole hours and I was so done with him I just used the cancerous shield poke build. This time I'll try with my previous build before the poke and use the tips you've given, thanks champ
12:41 Bro, just be happy we’ve all beat him. Whatever way you beat the game, as long as you had fun, is the way it was meant to be played. The point of these games isn’t a witch-hunt about who beat it in a purer way, it’s the experience of beating the game and experiencing the great community these games bring together.
@@hugo-pg5tv Pride in my gaming ability and not playing on easy mode then saying I’m as good as everyone else. Most games have an easy mode that has things to make the game easier. In some, is a refilling health bar, in others, you deal more damage. In Elden ring, you have summon usage. “But it’s in the game”, well so are the changes made by easy modes….
The fight starts with the boss's turn. It does a 7-hit combo. You mistime one roll by 3 milliseconds and lose 60% of your health. It is now your turn, which is spent getting up from the floor. No time for healing, it's the boss's turn and their combo is already starting. You perfectly dodge it all. It's your turn now; time to heal. It's the boss's turn again, and you land another series of perfect dodges. As a reward, you land one attack that brings the boss down to 95% health. You get greedy and try to land TWO hits. Unwise; the boss's turn started as soon as you finished the first hit. YOU DIED
@@masque9446 I don't think they play tested the second phase. The huge frame dip makes that pretty obvious and the fact that 90 to 95 percent of the players will have to change their build to beat him. I changed to shield poke after I realized I could not tank the damage. After beating him with 2 real summons, I spent the next 4 to 6 hours helping others to beat him. During that I learned his move set after the 50th or so try. It is nearly impossible to dodge his attacks at medium roll without spamming the roll button. Also I have no idea how Zanny survived his meterior body attack at near the end other than it going after the mimic maybe. Without perfect dodge or shield, you cannot survive that attack when it is directed towards you. His high vigor and multiple combos mean it is nearly impossible to beat on your own as with 1 mistake like you said could kill you. I tried on a rerun of the entire game by myself and then with npc summons. I can only get him down to 20% health cause From most likely made the NPCs dumber and so don't understand when to dodge or attack. I am not proud of it, but I cannot beat him without 2 real summons.

Yeah. I don't care how Zanny beats the boss, with or without summons, I'm just glad my boi is enjoying the DLC. If the fans are salty that he beats them with a summon, even better.

12:50 Yes Zanny, you did not ACKTWALLY beat the elden ring. By using in game mechanic the developers put in the game to use you have abused the game, and angered the elden ring. This is why Radahn had summoned 1000 mimics to your door and the only way to stop them is too watch a first edition copy of sharktale.
Oh shut up. You people constantly using that lame "uH dEvS pUt iT iN sO i hAvE tO uSe iT" excuse are just as pathetic as the losers telling others how they should play their game.
@@nnitro527 definitely not a troll, some fromsoft fanboys are crazy like that, they don't have any achievements in their lives, outside of playing video games.
I love how Radahn is programmed to target switch even if you don’t attack him. They knew how annoying the boss was and they knew people were going to use summons so they said “yeah you’re not cheesing this fight”
@@edvardironofficial8931 Summons straight up makes every fight easier, there's nothing wrong with using them at all but the fact is it is straight up more impressive if you never use them and for some reason people get mad over it
@@ceverex5808 the funny thing is, the 99.999 (imagine the nine repeating infinitely)% of people, hell, probably 99+% of GAMERS don't give a flying fuck whether you beat a boss solo or with summons/cheese/tools/friends. The fact that people feel the need to point out that it is theoretically "more impressive" (I mean find me two people who are ACTUALLY more impressed) to beat a boss without using any tools except leveling strength is just mindblowing. It shows how chronically online and out of touch with reality those few players are, and it's sad.
And for all of those who are calling Zanny bad at video games listen to beat Radahn without mimic or a shield and poke build, but that took me days. I honestly can’t blame anyone for using the mimic tear but listen we are forgetting that Zanny defeated Midir on the first try, that is the most bad ass flex a souls veteran can have
Ahh I love players that use whatever build they want use summons if they want and just play as they please. You zanny are leading figure for this play style and I like you for it
12:30 I can't even begin to describe how much of a dork I think that guy is, Souls gatekeepers are so lame its crazy. Games are made for people to have fun. If you want to go out of your way to torture yourself for zero gain, good for you, but forcing that expectation on other people is mega cringe. It's very refreshing to see someone play through these games without forcing themself to fight like cavemen, well done Zanny.
Little bit of gatekeeping is good. It keeps the people who want to change the game to suit them, out. Like the people who demand an easy mode. That guy was not the good kinda gatekeeper.
@@spectralassassin6030 Tbf, these aren't the kind of games where developers will truly cave to complaints. The point is to be challenging, so naturally they're not gonna listen to any requests that boil down to removing the challenge, especially considering you can do as much yourself by using every option the game gives you. Imho, FromSoft games don't need any gatekeeping whatsoever.
@@distheotaku3595 yep so long as miyazaki is still the president, fromsoft don’t need any gatekeeping because the man will just crush every attempt at changing his games
Its funny because literally not one single person gives a shit if you beat a boss solo. If you want to be proud of it, fine, but keep it to yourself because nobody gives a shit.
To anyone who reads this, using summons or respec or anything like that isn't cheating. Play the game the way that's fun for you. Don't fall into that ego trap where you think you have to beat a boss a certain way. Games are made to have fun, so have fun.
Setting a challenge for yourself is fine but just because you beat it with your own handicaps doesn’t mean others who don’t do the same didn’t win. You sir are wise
That guy in the video was so proud of himself beating every boss solo which is good for him but as a man with a full-time job I don't have the energy to devote 6hrs of my time on one boss. And in the end of the day it's a video game and you should play it whatever you want and I am proud to say that I beat elder ring with all the cheese I got.
For all the others Who want to boost themselves and their damage, the exalted flesh consumable and the flame grant me strength incantation are Both body buffs, thus they cancel eachother out, so using Both is meaningless as you will only get the effect of the one you used Last :D
I’ve beaten waiting forever for this moment 😂 Zanny is the best living embodiment of a meme. 12:36: you want a medal surya cause the devs sure ain’t giving it to you 😂
@@saatvikkalra6061Of a fucking try hard over how someone spent 3 hours instead of spending 6 hours over a boss. Souls community can’t take anyone’s victory lightly
I hate those people who try to make themselves out as being a better player just because they didn’t use mimics or other stuff. Good job, you made the game harder on yourself. Alls fair in war as they say.
well it is objectively correct that they are the better player if you think about it. Its still not right to tell others how to play the game tho. Doing a challenge run like no summons is really fun and victories feel a lot more nice in my experience. If you dont have the time to invest into learning a boss fight, thats fine. Its just that solo or not are two completely different experiences and I personally find the solo route to be a lot more rewarding and fun :P
@@mcgeiler3915 that’s understandable. I’m sorry, just don’t like it when they get all high and mighty about it and try to belittle others for how they’re playing the game. Everyone should just be able to play the game their own way without criticism.
I don’t blame Zanny for using summons on Radahn. That fight took me 5 hours to do solo (which is just as long as Malenia) and if I hadn’t looked up a Fextralife guide for how to dodge all his attacks it probably would have taken me even longer. The second phase is no joke
Seriously? A guy throwing shade at Zanny because he spent two plus hours beating an insane boss instead of six? Yeah, sure that's how you 'win properly' if you define winning as being a forty year old virgin who has never even SEEN grass much less touched it. You rock Zanny, and speaking as a guy who killed Miquella inside of an hour: be proud of your victory and don't let the haters tarnish your achievement. . . also I swear that pun was an accident.
Here's my take on it. I used a quality milady with low armor and the deflect tear and no summons to finally beat rahdan. Definetly handicapped myself but I was determined to master this boss like malenia. It took me 3 days and 20 ish hours but I got him. At the end though from looking back at my attempts and others i had a really cool epiphany. Most of us can dodge block deflect etc. rahdan perfectly if not close to perfect. Guard counter builds can 2nd phase him in less than a minute. We tarnished can measure up to Rahdan at his theoretical HEIGHT. We are fast enough and strong enough to beat rahdan thanks to everything we've learned and collected. I realized our struggle truly begins when Miquella literally comes in to CHEAT.

that heal tech. you dropped at 1:16 was a game changer. I've been using it in every build
“Buffs for 10 years”
“ next clip is him getting absolutely decimated” 9:10
thats about my luck lmao
Radahn was trained in the Jedi arts by Count dooku
I love how Radahn is programmed to target switch even if you don’t attack him. They knew how annoying the boss was and they knew people were going to use summons so they said “yeah you’re not cheesing this fight”
There is nothing wrong with using summons.
@@edvardironofficial8931 Summons straight up makes every fight easier, there's nothing wrong with using them at all but the fact is it is straight up more impressive if you never use them and for some reason people get mad over it
@@ceverex5808 the funny thing is, the 99.999 (imagine the nine repeating infinitely)% of people, hell, probably 99+% of GAMERS don't give a flying fuck whether you beat a boss solo or with summons/cheese/tools/friends. The fact that people feel the need to point out that it is theoretically "more impressive" (I mean find me two people who are ACTUALLY more impressed) to beat a boss without using any tools except leveling strength is just mindblowing. It shows how chronically online and out of touch with reality those few players are, and it's sad.
@@edvardironofficial8931yup.
@@edvardironofficial8931 yup. never said there was anything wrong
Zanny: "Will I beat him first try like I have so many times before?"
also Zanny: "Laurence beat me out of Bloodborne."
Bro Zanny beat laurence first try what r u saying???
And for all of those who are calling Zanny bad at video games listen to beat Radahn without mimic or a shield and poke build, but that took me days. I honestly can’t blame anyone for using the mimic tear but listen we are forgetting that Zanny defeated Midir on the first try, that is the most bad ass flex a souls veteran can have
Ahh I love players that use whatever build they want use summons if they want and just play as they please. You zanny are leading figure for this play style and I like you for it
12:30 I can't even begin to describe how much of a dork I think that guy is, Souls gatekeepers are so lame its crazy. Games are made for people to have fun. If you want to go out of your way to torture yourself for zero gain, good for you, but forcing that expectation on other people is mega cringe. It's very refreshing to see someone play through these games without forcing themself to fight like cavemen, well done Zanny.
Little bit of gatekeeping is good. It keeps the people who want to change the game to suit them, out. Like the people who demand an easy mode. That guy was not the good kinda gatekeeper.
@@spectralassassin6030
Abusing exploits like the dodge roll, healing items, etc. is already playing on easy mode.
@@spectralassassin6030 Tbf, these aren't the kind of games where developers will truly cave to complaints. The point is to be challenging, so naturally they're not gonna listen to any requests that boil down to removing the challenge, especially considering you can do as much yourself by using every option the game gives you.
Imho, FromSoft games don't need any gatekeeping whatsoever.
@@distheotaku3595 yep so long as miyazaki is still the president, fromsoft don’t need any gatekeeping because the man will just crush every attempt at changing his games
Its funny because literally not one single person gives a shit if you beat a boss solo. If you want to be proud of it, fine, but keep it to yourself because nobody gives a shit.
To anyone who reads this, using summons or respec or anything like that isn't cheating. Play the game the way that's fun for you. Don't fall into that ego trap where you think you have to beat a boss a certain way. Games are made to have fun, so have fun.
Setting a challenge for yourself is fine but just because you beat it with your own handicaps doesn’t mean others who don’t do the same didn’t win. You sir are wise
Amen my guy💪
honestly fr, like im not about to waste 6 hours of my life for one boss. i got other things in my life too
That guy in the video was so proud of himself beating every boss solo which is good for him but as a man with a full-time job I don't have the energy to devote 6hrs of my time on one boss. And in the end of the day it's a video game and you should play it whatever you want and I am proud to say that I beat elder ring with all the cheese I got.
Sounds like a buncha sissies to me
I like when you get picked up and Miquella whispers in your ear twice it says "heart stolen"
For all the others Who want to boost themselves and their damage, the exalted flesh consumable and the flame grant me strength incantation are Both body buffs, thus they cancel eachother out, so using Both is meaningless as you will only get the effect of the one you used Last :D
I’ve beaten waiting forever for this moment 😂 Zanny is the best living embodiment of a meme.
12:36: you want a medal surya cause the devs sure ain’t giving it to you 😂
12:45 "I can use boss weapons proudly" who tf talks like that dude???
Someone who lives in their mom’s basement probably.
Someone that's talking dramatically to describe their experience in a video game lmao yall need to chill the f out hes right
@@saatvikkalra6061Of a fucking try hard over how someone spent 3 hours instead of spending 6 hours over a boss. Souls community can’t take anyone’s victory lightly
10:34 a thousand compassion 🗣️🗣️🗣️
12:40 elden ring players try not be a complete fucking loser challenge: impossible
Challenge: Give up you loser
10:47 I had PTSD when Radahn disappeared to the sky I started crying
6:39 I love how this comes up, and I just started watching the Walking Dead a couple of days ago
WHAT A WONDERFUL DAYYY
WHAT A WONDERFUL DAY

SOLID OF SCALE YOU MIGHT BE, FOUL DRAGON... BUT I WILL RIDDLE WITH HOLES, YOUR ROTTEN HIDE!
10:06 the chat comment “Mogh beating the allegations” 💀💀💀
10:49 is literally the face isaac makes at the end of Dead Space 2 i love it
Zanny your the best creator ever I’ve been watching you for like 2 years and wanted to show my appreciation
0:02 😂😂😂😂 TOO SOON
I hate those people who try to make themselves out as being a better player just because they didn’t use mimics or other stuff. Good job, you made the game harder on yourself. Alls fair in war as they say.
All’s fair in love and war
well it is objectively correct that they are the better player if you think about it. Its still not right to tell others how to play the game tho. Doing a challenge run like no summons is really fun and victories feel a lot more nice in my experience. If you dont have the time to invest into learning a boss fight, thats fine. Its just that solo or not are two completely different experiences and I personally find the solo route to be a lot more rewarding and fun :P
@@mcgeiler3915 that’s understandable. I’m sorry, just don’t like it when they get all high and mighty about it and try to belittle others for how they’re playing the game. Everyone should just be able to play the game their own way without criticism.
12:10 bro heard the demons whisper in his ear “hit him mid fucking swing”
Love the subtle "pin of shame" to the dude for dissing on the Zan Man for using mimic on Radahn
Coming out hot with “just grazed my ear” in the first two second lmao
12:01 Zanny turning into a wildcat 😂
05:43 i can hear the pain of phase 2 radahn in his words😂😂
10:51 you can just hear zanny's ptsd from the first time Rodahn turned into a meteor
Used mimic tear for Commander Gauis and I think everyone will understand
10:49 the fear in zannys eyes holy shit 😭
I don’t blame Zanny for using summons on Radahn. That fight took me 5 hours to do solo (which is just as long as Malenia) and if I hadn’t looked up a Fextralife guide for how to dodge all his attacks it probably would have taken me even longer. The second phase is no joke
17:08 is nobody gonna talk about how clean that audio transition was?
THATS WHAT IM SAYIN MAN?!?! Like I thought I was the only that noticed it
dude yall got the same vibes as me and the squad. We even do bad Rick and Morty impressons n shii
13:09 this is what happiness looks like
“It just grazed my ear”😂
14:51 “so love has blinded you”😂😂😂
I start watching and it’s zanny losing his sanity again🤣🤣
I can’t believe Zanny isn’t beating the game blindfolded like the game intended
12:42 the reason why Elden ring community needs an irl maiden better yet go outside, “you have to play the way I play or else I cry about it”
8:58 By the time I finally beat this guy, i was so sick of buffing all I would do is Physick and Golden Vow lmao
me but I also used a crab leg lol
“It just grazed my ear” is a wild sentence to begin the video with after recent events 😂
5:50
- Ah, feet!
- Minor, minor!
- Wait, what?!
10:46 I never thought I'd see Zanny actually have legit war flashbacks but he really did.
12:30 - struggling is an option but not mandatory Lil bro, take a break.
9:15 he spent longer buffing than in the actual fight
Seriously? A guy throwing shade at Zanny because he spent two plus hours beating an insane boss instead of six? Yeah, sure that's how you 'win properly' if you define winning as being a forty year old virgin who has never even SEEN grass much less touched it. You rock Zanny, and speaking as a guy who killed Miquella inside of an hour: be proud of your victory and don't let the haters tarnish your achievement. . . also I swear that pun was an accident.
If you use Shabriri's Woe on your mimic (and swap it out after you enter the boss room) the boss will focus on the mimic.
10:45 the PTSD kicked in real fast
Bro I love how when a loud attack happens his screams become realistically loud☠️☠️☠️
Here's my take on it. I used a quality milady with low armor and the deflect tear and no summons to finally beat rahdan. Definetly handicapped myself but I was determined to master this boss like malenia. It took me 3 days and 20 ish hours but I got him. At the end though from looking back at my attempts and others i had a really cool epiphany. Most of us can dodge block deflect etc. rahdan perfectly if not close to perfect. Guard counter builds can 2nd phase him in less than a minute. We tarnished can measure up to Rahdan at his theoretical HEIGHT. We are fast enough and strong enough to beat rahdan thanks to everything we've learned and collected. I realized our struggle truly begins when Miquella literally comes in to CHEAT.
12:20 attempts: 1😭😭
I finally beat consort Radahn today and had to respec my finally spellblade build to do so. So I felt that smirk at 8:00 very deeply 😂
You are watching this video for the Radan boss fight.
I am waching this video for the puppy break, we are not the same.🤵♂
Zanny u always make me happy even in rough times thank u so so much 😊
12:30 I bet the dude didn’t even summon Igon
Now THAT’S a fucking war crime
"nice try you just grazed my ear" did not age well 💀
