Maliketh was Marika's shadow, and there was no demi god who did not fear him... WOW Maliketh absolutely wrecking Malenia and straight-up avoiding her scarlet bloom was a thing of beauty.
Yeah agreed. Even marika herself would’ve been kept in check by maliketh. The thing is the elden beast is the manifestation of the greater will and I think should’ve had the power to take down maliketh lorewise right? That said idk if this manifestation of the greater will was missing the power of the rune of death in which case maliketh would really be second to none.
@@jayeff4337 The thing is that the Greater Will created Maliketh as Marika's shadow. He is bound to obey the Greater Will. Even if he has the power of the Rune of Death (and thus, being the only being capable of killing the Elden Beast before the Tarnished unleashes it on the Lands Between), he can't go againts it. I agree in that he is technically stronger than the Elden Beast
I think a big difference maker here is, even though Maliketh isn't in his arena, he still has access to "pillars", which are a huge part of his mobility.
Honestly, this was the ideal stage for him. Lot of open space to dodge and like you said, access to his "pillars." Maliketh is probably my favorite boss. Aesthetic wise, movements, attacks, etc.
@@castor9907 That is the core of his ridiculous damage output, yeah, but when put into other arenas, his general squishiness compared to other bosses of his level means sometimes he doesn't get to really leverage that before eating shit. Hence my emphasis on how important his pillar jumps are; he often doesn't have access to them outside of his arena, and they're a huge part of his mobility.
Malenia did something similar to Mohg in her 20 boss run. A lot of people were losing their minds. If Mohg pulls off his Nihil move then it's game over and the run ends. He must be killed or interrupted before he does his Nihil move.
@@TheStraightestWhitest true, the only ones who would last a little while against him is radagon/elden beast, probably the outer gods chosen too. Still they will have to handle the fact Maliketh isn't holding some force of nature in his hands, it's literal Death, and getting shanked with that will kill even gods
Malekith is the boss with the highest damage and movility in the game, but he is very fragile to balance it, malenia is so hard because she is basically malekith without this limitation and 2 phases.
@martincucco2796 What balances Melania out is that she has the weakest poise out of all the bosses besides rennala. If you're rocking giant hunt AOW or lions claw, it's an easy clap.
the malenia fight was the best/worst rng i’ve ever seen. she held on by a thread with waterfowl and he completely avoided her scarlet rot by nuking her at a distance, woah
Its also the fact she started at 50% hp instead of the usual 80% and he did the most op move he had against her as she was still stuck in the flower she missed. This was the absolute best Rng he could ever have against her
@@s8theninjawarrior916 which should have been the case and it is until he got nerfed he always avoid her by doing this until he got nerfed to the ground he is just lucky here other wise this is just a buffed nerfed Maliketh
Soldier of God, Rick, was only using 0,00000000001% of his power, and this was only one of his quintillion avatars who are by default already only 0,000000001% as strong as the Soldier of God himself. So he was using 0,000000001% of 0,00000000001% of his power here.
Rick throwing the fight just because he knows doggo is still feeling down about the whole destined death being stolen and thinking he failed Marika was kind of wholesome. A real Chad like Rick picks up those around them.
One thing that seems to make Maliketh so op is that not only does he have insanely high dps, he has some unusually high poise damage to boot as well. A few hits are enough to break the stance of many of the bosses here
A shame he misses so many of those overhead attacks. They should be faster and have their hitbox increased. But yeah, Maliketh and Godfrey deal by far the most poise damage, and it isn't even close. Both only ever need 2-3 hits to shatter everything's poise. He even managed to poise break Fortissax, which I've never seen before as those dragons have insane poise, like 300 or more.
What's always really made me get excited for Maliketh fights is because with him it doesn't just feel like RNG a lot of the time: it feels like everything he does is perfectly calculated, well chosen, he seems to actively dodge some of the more dangerous moves like jumping over Radagon's slam or Malenia's rot, etc. It feels like watching a true pro in action. Of course it's also sad how often he tends to get poise-broken and his fairly small health pool comes into play. But when he shines it's downright exciting to watch.
Apart from Destined Death, what makes Maliketh lethal even on simulation is his tendency to jump away as default action, instead of simply repositioning while still in shooting range like other bosses do. Also he likes to attack from the air, effectively avoiding damage from earth-bound attacks.
That rng against Malenia's phase 2 was way too good. She started 50% instead of 80% and he did flying multiple slash which does 50% of all bosses, effectively clearing her out without her even finishing her first move...
No and yes. She'd always start with approximately 50% if the attack that brings her first phase down applies destined death (tested with Black Knife AoW + Maliketh's Black Blade). It isn't very uncommon. The reason she had health reduced was due to the overall reduction and the additional DoT. Maliketh's damage is still greater than Malenia's. Where Maliketh generally loses is when he gets rotted or poise-broken late. The slash isn't Maliketh's strongest attack. The best ones are those for which his blade glows gold.
@@Count.Saruman yes, making it the absolute best rng for Maliketh. And that multi hit mid air projectile slashes attack is the single strongest attack in the game... no questions. It does literally 50% to 60% of ANY end game boss in the game and it never misses. She started with 50% and he did that move, she effectively died before going out of her flower attack because of the phase fuckery. She has never lost a single round if only her phase 2 goes vs Maliketh, even when Maliketh starts full hp in phase 2.
@@s8theninjawarrior916 That's why I don't like her bloom in Maliketh fights. She either lands it and kills him or misses it and she dies before she can stand up. One move decides the outcome of the fight. It would be nice to see her fight Maliketh without the bloom.
@@min24434 YES!! More often should that happen, as I said, only a few times has that happened on TH-cam and Malenia's 2 just always wins but there are only like 4 times in total where this happened on youtube
@@s8theninjawarrior916 Yeah she rarely misses it even against Maliketh with his mobility but it makes some of the fights a bit boring and predictable. I do believe she will be fine without it tbh. It's not like her other attacks aren't OP or anything so... I don't think I have ever seen her without it. If you know some videos where she doesn't use her phase transition move against Maliketh link them. I would love to see it.

This is probably extremely disproportionate but I'd like to imagine this is a pretty close representation of his prime. Death of the Demigods for a reason.
It's not disproportionate. Malenia is well below him lore wise and has 34k hp and heals 2500hp per hit, so him having 50k health isn't crazy. What's crazy is that he's the size of Radahn but doesn't have at least 160 poise, instead having the same amount as Malenia (80), who is a tenth his size, a tenth as strong physically, and moves fifty times faster and dodges way more.
@@TheStraightestWhitest"heals 2500 HP per hit" lmaoooooooo she heals less than 2k HP with entire Waterfowl Dance. With regular attacks she heals about 300 HP.
@@suchar7175 I got video evidence of me hitting her for 2644 damage from full health with the Giant Braid Ash of War, and her healing back to full hitting the host in co-op with a single thrust attack, meaning she healed at least 2644 health. So you are wrong. She had accumulated over 24k damage before going into second phase, even though she has only 18k health. She healed 6k at least, and all she landed were five swipes before the waterfowl which do indeed only heal her around 300-500 health. But even without that, she would've been dead by 15:24. And Waterfowl kept her in the fight for another 4k health. It definitely heals more than 2k. More around 4-8k if most or all of it connects. I've been spam helping hosts kill her the last two days like a budget Let Me Solo Her. I think I know more about her than you. And one thing I've noticed is that even on a fire build which is her weakness dealing 1101 AR on NG, I cannot out DPS her healing if the host or another phantom gets hit too often, especially if they block her attacks and therefore get hit more. A grab heals for easily 3k or more. The thrust and downward sweeps easily close to that or also 3k. The upward and skywards sweeps heal around 2k. Waterfowl averages on around 4-6k, with a bit more than that if she connects with all of it (very rare), or hits more than one player. Not sure why you're excusing a boss healing hundreds of health per swipe, all of which come out in a third of a second to begin with, but there it is.

This is nearly impossible since more than half the videos done show that Malenia can take him by herself especially in her second phase and so can the fire giant. It was good to see it can be done.
@@AlaEddin-lb7vl Malenia has two things that obliterate most of the crowd early on in either phase: her opening sword volley and then the scarlet bloom. Maliketh has the ability to dodge either but if she catches him the battle is hers. Its highly talked about what a cheese it is which is why they gave her the 'I've never known defeat,' line.
Fortissax barely hit Maliketh with that lightning, so he might be alright. But whoever would fight him would have to put him down fast. Gideon might be able to if he just spams comet.
If you could deathblight bosses that would make it too strong. Everyone would use it then it wouldnt be any fun. It also says it works specifically on tarnished so they would have to mod in somehow the game seeing the bosses as tarnished which idk if thats possible.
Heh, Mohg was a second away from finishing his ritual, Morgott spent more time phase changing then fighting, Placidusax could not get a single attack in, Fire Giant was eaten alive by the Destined Death and Malenias Anime Powers failed her entirely all in all very entertaining
Could you make 5xhp Dragonlord, Godfrey and Radagon too? I think Loux, Malenia, Doggo, Placi and Radagon is strongest in lore, so I want to see other ones fighting too.

A grab heals for easily 3k or more. The thrust and downward sweeps easily close to that or also 3k. The upward and skywards sweeps heal around 2k. Waterfowl averages on around 4-6k, with a bit more than that if she connects with all of it (very rare), or hits more than one player.
Not sure why you're excusing a boss healing hundreds of health per swipe, all of which come out in a third of a second to begin with, but there it is.
Rick, Soldier of God spared malekith the embarrassment of losing immediately due to malekiths years of good deeds for Rick. If it weren’t for malekith doing his job all these years he would’ve seen the wrath of the almighty Rick and this video wouldn’t even get a chance to start before he perished.
Everyone feared Maliketh, for a reason, we know why now
Dude it's like maliketh's boss design was based around "yeah he's gonna fight the player, but let's make sure he can kill EVERYTHING ELSE IN THE GAME"
When your sister, Marika, Wants a turn on the roller coaster, but 20 different people are standing in line and she hates waiting
2:52 boss is displeased with his security detail
Melenia Rot is the thing that beats 90% of the bosses that goes against her. This was some great RNG.
It was already game over for malenia the moment maliketh dodged her scarlet nuke

Makes sense that the game's final boss would be the hardest for him (or at least taking him the longest to beat)
I love how maliketh jumps over Rick, then backflips directly to where he started, as if to say "Cmon, that wasn't it..."
やっぱ飛べるのと炎の追加ダメージが強いな。マレニアの最初の花アタックが回避上手すぎる
Should have titled this one as "lore accurate Maliketh vs 20 boss gauntlet"
Maliketh, the only one who can wield colossal sword at the speed of straight sword. Queen Marika has high hopes for him
this was the most agressive maliketh I've ever seen
"And there was no demigod who did not fear him"
Bro got that dawg in him
this dude is cool af coolest boss in the game imo, so happy to see him survive
I love how Maliketh is one of the very few bosses that can dodge attacks and also attacking simultaneously which makes him harder to fight and unique
And that's why the rest of the demigods were afraid of doggo
So basically the family dog vs the family
Maliketh is that one boss we all wanna see win
"And he did it first try....Hail Maliketh.. Elden Lord of the Black Blade Order.."
i was sure stage 2 malenia's scarlet rot flower blossom thingy would end the run, but maliketh came with the clutch dodge of that entire move!!!
Him dodging every Placidusax lightning bolt was epic af
Maliketh Destroys ELDEN RING that's the perfect title for this video after watching him demolish all the bosses like that! Lol 😂
Man, I love Maliketh.. His movements are erratic 🤩... dodge attack on @10:55 was perfect
As i thought maliketh solos the verse
Lore accurate Maliketh
The comedic timing of some of these moments is hilarious. Like Radagon going for the grab and just getting stomped
Maliketh in the glory days when he was the god of death. Good RNG but who doesn't need some luck when facing 20 formidable foes.
The invisible Pillars
It takes place in Farum Azula, which transcends space and time. So some reality warping isn't even far fetched, LOL!
@@TheStraightestWhitest ...Transcends of what? Of course your make things up. LOL? No, but OLO.
Malenia: I have never known defeat.
…
Maliketh: Cower before Maliketh, the Black Blade.
I wake up in 5 hours for a 12 hour shift and I’m rewatching* this. Worth it
That _perfectly_ timed dodge on Malenia's glowy flower BS... **Chief's Kiss**
Maliketh is truly best doggo! ;-)
Maliketh can stay on the pillars waiting???? That is so cool actually
When the target disappears, he will not move, I have seen this before.
@@chaossilvermoonits rare tho i have above 400hours i realize it now
Maliketh: Defeating all bosses, demigods and a God
Tarnished: "Help I am in danger!"
hell yeah! lessss goooooo. his range and dodging for the last fight was on point!
Damn, they should have made Maliketh the actual hardest boss ever instead of... Malenia
Wow, this was epic! Great finale too. Is it just me or do Malenia and Maliketh's abilities kind of counter each other really well?
Im proud of Rick getting so far to maliketh on his own
That Malenia 2nd phase dodge + range attack had style
All the main bosses in this game look so good. It’s so cool seeing them stand together like this
"there was not one Demigod that did not fear him" no kidding; Placidusax didn't even get to swing!
This is nearly impossible since more than half the videos done show that Malenia can take him by herself especially in her second phase and so can the fire giant. It was good to see it can be done.
@@AlaEddin-lb7vl Malenia has two things that obliterate most of the crowd early on in either phase: her opening sword volley and then the scarlet bloom. Maliketh has the ability to dodge either but if she catches him the battle is hers. Its highly talked about what a cheese it is which is why they gave her the 'I've never known defeat,' line.
@@AlaEddin-lb7vland Maliketh’s destined death is what gives him the edge that’s why they are both so good at killing everything
It’s a lot easier when Malekith gets 5x his normal hp.
The Malenia fight was so satisfying to watch.
That radagon kill was straight out of a movie
Interesting seeing Maliketh, the HP deleting machine, fight Melania, the HP restoring machine
If normal bosses were vulnerable to Deathblight, I wonder if any of them could survive against Fortissax.
Probably not. I wonder why Deathblight and Frenzied Flame don't have a status effect on bosses.
Fortissax barely hit Maliketh with that lightning, so he might be alright. But whoever would fight him would have to put him down fast. Gideon might be able to if he just spams comet.
If you could deathblight bosses that would make it too strong. Everyone would use it then it wouldnt be any fun. It also says it works specifically on tarnished so they would have to mod in somehow the game seeing the bosses as tarnished which idk if thats possible.
@@searablacksoul They could have made it a less powerful version that doesn't insta kill. Like the one the deathbirds use.
I guess, it would be kinda funny to see what their animations would be. Seeing the bosses grab each other is already hilarious
15:43
Doggo:Nope İ Heard What You Did To Radahn
The fucking quality of this video is insane. Nice job
He straight up jumped off the Fire Giant. Dude is a legend
It’s only fair to nerf Rick in this situation
Heh, Mohg was a second away from finishing his ritual, Morgott spent more time phase changing then fighting, Placidusax could not get a single attack in, Fire Giant was eaten alive by the Destined Death and Malenias Anime Powers failed her entirely
all in all very entertaining
forgot the giant elevator-sized body slam on the good boy doggo 😂
Maliketh really sets the bar for canines with skills. Makes Air Bud look like a total scrub
The flame of Destined Death is too powerful that no any Boss can handle it. True Godslayer.
The true God Slayer.
''This (wo)man, a slayer of Gods... Most impressive. Armed with Death, thou mayest choose the throne of thine desire.'' - Maliketh, cut death dialogue
Could you make 5xhp Dragonlord, Godfrey and Radagon too?
I think Loux, Malenia, Doggo, Placi and Radagon is strongest in lore, so I want to see other ones fighting too.
