Love how this boss rage is basically a cold open for future Rugal boss rages
A Rugal (quote on quote) “Legacy,” in other words.
Foreshadowing
Joysticks will break. Oh yes, joysticks will break. Mwahahaha!
I think he’ll be super difficult if he have kaiser wave.
Still wait on him tackling arcana hearts 3 with no safety net. Rugals less than mediocre against parace l’sia.
I think he'd be way harder with one simple change: He recovers health between characters.
Yea that needs to be put in
ALLL HIS HEALTH
Or, two difficulties. As is now is Normal Mode. Hard Mode is what you said. And the third difficulty, which I think should be called 90s mode, is what you said, but the AI feels like you’re playing against an actual human player.
@@paperluigi6132 that would be dope
Or he recovers health base on the damage he took like in Neo Geo Battle Collesium
Lmao I like how Rugal’s entire move set is basically a bunch of absolutely insane bullshit that just makes you want to jump so he can punish you for jumping but when you don’t jump you face insane bullshit so you try to jump and get genocided.
lmao , this comment is damn accurate
Stuck between a Reppuken and a Genocide Cutter...
Welcome to Rugal
...couldn’t’ve said it better myself...
...as a Mexican, I approve this message...
Big props to the editor on this one. Looked like they were having fun with it
That menacing edit was excellent.
@@webbowser8834
That one actually killed me ngl 😂🤣💀
I dunno I think it needed a few more explosions XDXDXDXDXDXDXDXDXDXDXDXDXD
Thank you! And yes, it was very fun indeed 💀
@@webbowser8834 "Oh, you're approaching me? Actually stop doing that!"
The ending of this when he said he's going to find the actual hardest Rugal...was probably the best ending to this that I've ever seen!
Hardest is 2002 um one
He is a Secret Boss instead of a Main one.
@@notshockwavedemon7543 the reason that he's the hardest is that you only have one attempt at him before he resets the entire run
@@whenisdinner2137 Also while he has the same moveset as 2002 Rugal, he has more power and defense and can do genocide cutter on genocide cutter
@@whenisdinner2137 and health, and more input reading and chaining Gcs that can take 1/5 of your health and end with a super and his 1-frame kaiser wave that he can pull whenever he feels like it.
3:58 This was a scene straight out of some anime when the bad guy shows his power for the first time and stomps the protagonist while walking through all his powers
I hope Max didn’t forget about this. I would love to see him finding the hardest Rugal of them all.
Hint: it’s 2002 UM
I'm still waiting for the video. :( I'm agree with you. Actually, just meet the requirements to figth him it's a challenge by it self...
And he did forget
@@aguila1077Yup 😂. I just went back to watch a bunch of boss rage videos, and I was trying to see if he actually went threw with his challenge
I struggled most with base 2002 over 2002um
this boss rage was the appetizer, now we are about to have our main course.
I hope with geese being released we get nightmare geese as a boss
2 years later...
4:00 - 4:08 is pure "Can't beat the shit out of you without getting closer" energy.
ora!
yare yare
Daze!
The fact that it anti-airs too kind of sucks.
""M-E-N-A-C-I-N-G""
Omega Rugal may not be the hardest boss rage but damn, he got mad style though.
Oh yeah! He so damn COOL! I'm gonna try to main him.
@@TheHeartlessAlchemist
ñt
@@TheHeartlessAlchemist you gonna get banned on mexico
@@lucalima99 Gonna get banned? Bro he's gonna get shanked and thrown in a ditch for that heresy.
@@lucalima99 50% of cartel beheadings are caused by someone picking Rugal
The ending confirmed to me that Max is a Masochist, lmao
I found myself repeating “Oh no..” when he made his plans clear.
Godspeed. 🫡
The scariest part is, he knows what is getting himself into and he actively CHOOSES it.
@@TheAssirra that is a man with principles.
as a content creator he knows
suffering is content
As someone who didn't grow up with SNK hard mode bosses in the arcades, I found Omega Rugal here quite challenging. Can't wait to see your 'Omegal legacy' to see what bollocks he gets up to there.
Ohhhh, you missed out. The term "SNK boss" used to be an epithet in arcades for a reason.
the SNK boss syndrome is very real. Max knows he is going to get put through the wringer like never before.
@@TheRogueWolf True, bosses in other games made you feel fear but SNK bosses made you wish for death.
As an example, God Rugal in CVS2 (who was featured in an earlier boss rage) performs moves SO DAMN QUICKLY that the computer "busts pixels" to do it. As in, canceling out from one animation at the EARLIEST POSSIBLE FRAME to instantly counter whatever you just did to try and hit him. Jump over God Rugal's Reppuken to get in? The computer will instantly perform a Genocide Cutter at better-than-human reaction speeds to get the punish, doing it so fast that the game itself doesn't know what to do and replaces Rugal's sprite with a mess of pixels for a brief moment.
Early SNK boss CPUs are SO BROKEN, the GAME ENGINE ITSELF can't keep up.
@@MrMysteryreviewer tho CVS2 God Rugal isn't what I call "early SNK boss CPUs".
Can’t wait for Cheap Rugal Boss Rage! Also massive props to Jorge for the sweet editing.
Thank you!
Thank You.
Rugal: Repeat after me: "I'll never take on a god again".
Max: We're gonna fight Rugal in all previous games
Rugal: *Listen here, you little sh--*
That quote didn’t even cross my mind!
😆😆😆
lol
Rugal: Repeat after me: “I’ll never take on a god again.”
Kyo: I beat Orochi… TWICE!
Terry: I took down the literal god of war.
Shun’ei: I defeated TWO gods, back to back! And I’ve only been in two games!
Rugal: …Well now that’s just cheating!
@@NoahDaArk igniz: Do I even count?
2:41 (Jumps towards Rugal and gets hit with Genocide Cutter)
Max: “There’s no jumping in on this boss”
*Do it again*
Max: “NO!”
*Do it again*
Max: “Stop stupid brain!”
*dO iT aGaIn*
Classic case of Monke brain at work, ya hate to see it.
I've faced this fucker for years and my brain STILL says to jump. XD
King of skill needs to fight Rugal.
And just kept doing it was too funny lol
@@tinyt.w.i.m7291does he even play KOF?
This is a great Boss Rage video of Omega Rugal in action. This version is definitely harder, but it is easy to see that SNK still toned him down here. They werent willing to put players against Omega Rugal in the 90s era of KOF games, where he was the source of TONS of screaming players venting their frustrations on their controllers. And one of the sources of the infamous "SNK Boss Syndrome."
Yeah, there was a huge fanbase created by those games but definitely a lot of people got pushed away because of the SNK Boss Syndrome. If you see the other competitors, Heihachi, Bison, even Gill, they are puppies in comparison to the easiest SNK boss, the really overdone it.
But at least, Rugal is quite challenging, he's not a free win, you need to struggle a little to beat him
Considering what he is in this game and that there's prizes, I kinda get why they would make him less broken. It'd suck if only like the top 10 ranked in the world could beat him. This is a decent level for him to be at overall imo.
The hardest version of Omega Rugal is from what I know the 2002 UM version of him
Repeat this after me: I will never take on a God again!
Already did and beat him anyway. With Kula, Shunei, and Isla.
KOF 98 Omega Rugal winning quotes im guessing
@@TotoyDestinyyes it is.
The face after Max got hit with that 8 piece 😂🤣😂🤣
2:00-2:08
Still amazed at how fast Max's editor get these videos out, he did the Boss Rage yesterday!
Jorge busted ass on this! Give em a follow on Twitter! It's in the description.
@@CaitLikesCoffee I cant feel my ass anymore but it was worth it
@@JorgeConstantiniYT the edit made me laugh so hard haha , ur editing is soo cool man
@@JorgeConstantiniYT you rock jorge!!!
you know, he may not be as broken as he was in the first kof, but he's leagues better than what most fighting game "bosses" are considered these days. can't wait for repukken spamming Geese to show up in the boss rush mode next
DABBUREPUKEN!!!
Predictable, Predictable, Predictable
Should've been as hard as 02
Most fighting games don't even have bosses anymore
Yeah but I don't see the point, after Max played Kof 94 if I am not wrong he decided to level down the difficulty. Why does anybody want those levels of suffering? Just to pass hours raging at the screen?
That cliff-hanger at the end was beautiful! Also, i love how this has kinda become like a 'Boss Rage X Rugal Legacy' now. 👍
Though it was fairly easy, it was still a ton of fun to see live, Max's reactions were priceless especially when Rugal popped super and walked slowly and it blocked everything Max threw at him! Now the real test is next! I can't wait to see Max go through the Rugal Boss Rage legacy!
Our boy Maximilian really said "Imma live for the test" with them old school Rugal bosses.
Now is the time Max has to boss rage Goenitz
I laughed waaaay too much at the editing, props to the editor.
I was wondering why no one made an edit of his Super Grab with the explosion meme!
That ending announcement was HYPE
4:00 Terry: "he is just walking here, MENACINGLY!"
Rugal: *Chadwalks towards Terry"
Dat menacing walk is awesome. Major props to the editor 🤣
I knew Max would make a BOSS RAGE against this Boss the second he would drop!!
youre not the only one. its fucking obvious he would have
7:34 The balls on this man!!! I have a really baaaaaad feeling about this!! Im from Mexico Max and I sincerely wish you the best of luck fighting All Rugals......VAYA CON DIOS MIJO!!
This video was awesome and really fun. Specially for the edits. Truly awesome and I would love to see Max take into every Rugal Boss in top difficulty and find out what he said
Props to the editor on this!
He was disappointingly too easy. I suck at KOF and only know Terry well enough. Beat him first try.
Once you find the AIs weakness, it's automatically a win. Playing fair will always be a challenge against these AIs, but hitting their weakpoint constantly will secure the win fast.
Atleast for Players who's new to fgc, they'll experience what arcade BS boss feels like back in the day of arcade era 😅
Congrats you can abuse an AI, are you proud?
@@JohnDoe_69 Uh no? You sound pressed tho lol.
I beat him in my first try with Kyo, K’, and Orochi Chris. Have never beat him again.
okay,but can we talk about how much the theme slaps? they really out did themselves this time lol
Need the name of that version of Geese theme
@@Laddie_Vladdie idk, been searching but can't find anything close to it. Maybe someone else will get lucky
It's the arranged version of nightmare geese from Real Bout Fatal Fury Special
Imagine gimping your SNK Boss status so hard you make Max go through a Legacy Boss Rage series to find the hardest one.
Rugal is my all-time favorite FG character. Seeing a deep dive on his crushing difficulty throughout the games hits just right
Max that ending gave me the goosies lol, Cant wait for that Level 8 Rugal(94 ,95 , 98 , 2002) play through
I thought this was going to take me at least 15 tries, ended up doing it in 5. Not as hard as he used to be, but now as for the announcement at the end ... ohhhhhh that's gonna be good, '94 and '95 alone are going to be pure masochism. '98 and 2k2 should also have some moments.
2002 um gonna be a nightmare.
Back at it again with more Boss Rage eh? Let's get it
the amount of faces that max makes in this video are amazing. also good JoJo refrences with the go go go go affect.
i really wish if there is an option of additional difficulty like "deadly difficulty" which will be like the arcade lvl8 diff so everybody from both sides would be happy , also the health regen between chars could be a thing too
hat health recovery should be a thing for this boss inbetween new characters or at least have his defenses increased like a f ton so most moves do little damage to him on the highest difficulty.
*I don't really care if he wasn't hard or not, im just SUPER HAPPY that I unlocked his really awesome Omega Costume first try and he's my Central Main Now..*
Also good luck fighting Omega Rugal in KoF 2002 Max.
In vanilla 2k2, Rugal had a few easy exploits, K' can cheese the AI pretty well with his fireballs and time him out, did it all the time on Level 8 difficulty. Now 2k2 UM Rugal, now that's another story!
2k2 UM Rugal is the hardest Kof boss imo there are requirements to reach him (you can't lose more than 2 rounds, this even applies to all the NESTS Bosses) and his AI is so broken and you get only one chance to beat him.
@@saadhasan2518 Up to 3 rounds you can lose during the ENTIRE Arcade run, and NESTS boss must be defeated either without losing a round (single play) or your 1st character, or on your decisive round (2nd or 3rd character... assuming you lost up to 3 rounds in the entire run at that point and one or two of them were against the boss) with a DM/SDM/MAX2 move, not to mention that losing the match is instant Game Over (you get the game credits, but as far as the game is concerned, you ACTUALLY failed to beat it).
2:29 best clip
DemonDan14 would be proud!
3:58 lol what a GIGACHAD boss
The fact that it reflect projectiles made my hw drop. That's one thing to cross off the list of strategies. Damn...
[9 Loses and counting]
I live for these edits
“Walks forward menacingly” that shit got me.
Thanos: “ I am.... INEVITABLE.”
Rugal: “I am.... middling to average level hardness in the grand scheme of SNK Boss Fights.”
Then you go back to Kof98 and see how wrong that statement is
@V. S. Werejester "I was dead for 25 years"
Yeah even in terms of Rugal's fight exclusively if you ignore conditions I'd argue he at best the 2nd easiest.
Now I kinda wanna see Endgame but it's all SNK and Rugal is their Thanos.
@@dnmstarsi Orochi would make sense considering Rugal was just a failed experiment by Goentiz whilst Orochi was the big bad of the saga.
Wow Max's videos have gotten even better! The editing is godlike! one of the best creators out there. Thanks for everything Max, love ya!
Uh oh.. the Rugal boss rage mini series begins…
Sad that it was so easy :(
Also going back and fighting all the versions from past KOF games on the hardest difficulty, why is Max doing this to himself lol.
Its going to be so painful but oh so sweet to watch :)
He already experienced pain with Rugal during his KOF '94 Legacy playthrough, on level 4 difficulty.
Hopefully he's more prepared this time.
RUGAL LEGACY!!!
4:30
O. Rugal: Stay in the corner! I said stay in the corner
I love that slow walk forward. Lol
Oooh "Rate the Rugals". This will be painful yet entertaining. Please do it!
Challenge-wise, 2002UM Rugal will be a nightmare just for the requirements alone, and if you fail, you start back to square one... no continues. So good luck with that, Max.
CVS2 God Rugal could still be top contender for hardest iteration of Rugal in history. But can't wait for that list.
¡México unido! ¡Rugal será vencido!
8:08 That is the face of a man who just tought to himself "What did I get myself into?"
7:34 You madman! Don't do this to yourself. 😭😭😭
Finally gonna see Max do Boss Rage for the classic KOF titles! This should be really good!
I'm calling it now, Geese is gonna get a Boss Mode version when he comes out.
Gotta be Nightmare Geese!!!
@@dragons_hook 😮
We still need goenutz, orochi,
@@dragons_hook unpopular opinion bu5 I hope we get Young Geese as well.
@@kingdomcomesuperman3669 would be cool. But, i'm loving his suited look!
7:48 this is when 10k viewers felt extreme worry for the streamer in unison.
All the best luck in universe with that Max, you *doomed* yourself
4:00 im not kidding when I say this moment, that night in this stream....made me scream SO loud(not surprised if I woke someone up) in true video game fear. I wasnt even the one playing and Rugal made me know true fear
It should've a second phase (2nd health bar), where he removes the coat or something. I'm a "filthy casual xD", and I beat it in like 9-10 tries.
PS: Max should try Rugal in KOF 2002 vanilla:
I think Nagoriyuki stage 9 is the most challenging off all modern fighting games, i would looove to see that boss rage xD
The sudden build-up and hype that Max will be doing for Boss Legacy: Omega Rugal when you watch it on stream was (mwah) *PERFECTO*. His theme at the end is also perfect
And now I have some Boss Rages I am really looking forward to =D
Also, about this Version of Omega Rugal: I mean, he is definately the easiest, BUT a lot of stress on the old games already comes from the PATH LEADING TO HIS BATTLES! THAT is already so stressful that you are usually already worn out once you get to him!
By having him avaiable as a selectable Boss in the menu kinda makes it easier already, since you are in peak condition when you fight him, without the struggle beforehand!
This boi back for revenge
I think with the responsive of this boss not being hard enough. I have a feeling SNK will patch him with a harder mode. I can only hope though haha
for now the hardest lvl is lvl 5 on kof 15 i hope snk patch this up and give us lvl8 cpu difficulty thats how i get my ass beaten in the old days the lvl8 cpu is unforgiving especially the bosses very specificly rugal dont belive me try him on kof 2002
Imaging them merging 94', 95' & 02' A.I. versions and the blocking of 98' Rugal. He would be a nightmare to deal with.
"We're going to find through the process of elimination which Rugal is the hardest" I CANT WAIT FOR THIS EP!!! 👀👀👀
Maybe add the Health Regen thing.
However, I saw a lot of people still struggling with him, although not as much as before.
Unless.... of course, you use cheap tactics.
At the end of the day, when we are against SNK bosses, we are masochist so hopefully they make him even more harder than he is (which, he is)
Max has also played through most (if not all) of the KOFs that feature SNK boss syndrome Rugal, so he knows how far SNK pushed the limits in previous games.
94 and 95 mostly because those ones felt more "experimental" and the damage was WAY too cheap. 2002 UM Rugal, while doesn't have that much of a cheap damage, can only be faced once each playthrough under very specific conditions, his damage is still WAY high, his AI can be sometimes freaking bullshit to deal with, has a lot of different moves for every situation, and a lot of other things. Yes, Genocide Cutter was the strongest in 94 for me, that's how I felt it back then, but 2002 UM in general is waaaaay worse.
I wouldn't call what I did cheap, but King of Dinosaurs fucking destroys him lol
@@dyldragon1 he is definetly weak against grapplers
Honestly, I'm pretty trash at fighting games and I was able to beat God Rugal, so Omega Rugal needs to be way harder than he is.
Oh crap, so we having a Rugal boss rage legacy incoming? SICK!
Still waiting for Rugal Boss Rage series
7:36 - Y'know I always had a feeling you were just out of your freakin' mind but hearing you saying that out loud? Yeah, you need to be committed O _ o
Might not be as hard as we thought it would be but thankfully it’s harder than Otoma Raga and it leaves growth for future boss challengers such as nightmare geese or Igniz
Also 2002 UM rugal is gonna make max lose his mind I can already tell
Starting with the fact that each time he fails, he MUST replay the entire Arcade mode run... unless he use VS CPU mode and just beat 1 Rugal (while having the pick the same character up to 3 times option enabled to use it as a shortcut to not lose his mind about having to restart arcade mode, and the game will give bosses in VS CPU mode their Arcade Mode boss status (not sure about Goenitz and Nightmare Geese if you ask me).
Plot twist. Rugal was the tester so SNK knows how evil to make future boss challenges.
I hope
I get the feeling the next boss fight is gonna be a Nightmare!
Let me save you the time and suffering. There are two hardest Rugals. They are God Rugal (because he is the most broken of them all, even more so than Rugal from Kof '94), and Omega Rugal from Kof '02 UM. Not only is Omega Rugal from Kof '02 UM a ridiculously broken boss (though not as broken as God Rugal) with LUDICROUS amounts of health, but (unlike other Rugals) you can only fight him after defeating 1 of 4 broken NESTS bosses without either losing a round or having any of your teammates be KO'ed. And that's not the worst of it; the worst part is that you can only fight him ONCE per playthrough. Lose against him, and you will have to start all over again and face a NESTS boss again. Sorry for the long comment, and thanks for reading!! First time commenter, long time fan.
Is this were a legendary boss rage will start? My bet is that 94 Rugal will be the most difficult one.
Great video by the way. Geese's theme is hype AF.
The perfect boss rage of the year!
I was kinda disappointed that Omega Rugal wasn’t as hard as he was back in the older games. I was surprised he didn’t have the HP regen. Maybe SNK wanted to play it safe and not turn off players from playing the game further. But I do wish they added the option to give him the old school AI and the HP regen (which could be based on how much damage he deals). My guess is they’re waiting on Geese and another boss character before they release a boss team challenge.
No one's gonna turn people off more than KOF XI's Magaki... that guy was awful.
@@dragons_hook Yeah, I feel like at this point SNK should have a pretty good idea on how to make their bosses stupid hard, but just stupid enough that they can still be beaten.
Edits were great to make the challenge seem longer but during the Twitch stream, Max made light work of this Rugal.
4:00
O.Rugal: I'm going to walk over to you slowly with my hand raised. And if I touch you, God will decide what happens next.
It would be great if there was some kind of AI learning that make the boss harder to beat the more you play against him.
Been waiting for this…. 👀
Love seeing Max struggle through punishment! 😈
He took five tries. Barely a struggle
@@Twkout Yeah….His skill always shine when needed.
But….”🎵He’s going to the past🎵”. He hasn’t suffered enough.🫣
5:05 Crazy Talk is still near Max I see
3:33 max, i felt that one
Most of the time is actually Max playing against himself.
Max: "Don't jump"
-Immediately and reflexively jumps-
Max: "I'm dumb"
hahahahahahahahaha.. Love this video.
2:01 that combo was sick!!!!!!. I forget how mad Rugal makes me. I went through 2 Sega saturn controllers just trying to beat him in the 98 dream match. Lmao 💀
Absolutely cannot wait for you to fight all the rugal's! 2002 vanilla was especially brutal and your cvs2 god rugal boss rage was what got me into your channel all those years ago.
Every single KOF character: **Jumps**
Genocide Cutter: *"It's free real estate"*
Still waiting on that Rugal Legacy
I love how rugal taunted, then lost that same run. Taunt to get bodied is still a true combo.
Rugal's playstyle is a mix between rushdown and shoto, on top on having one of the best DPs in history (which makes him iconic) on top of having the best of both archetypes, he is missing some moves he had back in the day like his triple kick from 2002 which is a fantastic combo ender that links into every single super he has and a better version of kaiser wave from 98 that absorbs proyectiles and can be used in the air.
I like some of the things the boss version of rugal has in this game that he always had before like repukken being plus on hit from close range and never losing damage on combos
i love the old snk boss fights, they were always like "oh, you were playing that game before? no no, now we're playing a totally different game and you have to figure out the rules as we go" i legit enjoyed that aspect of discovery
So one thing that hinders bosses in this game is that they don’t regenerate health.
Yes, I'm wonder why SNK decided to change this after all the previous years. If they regenerated health like in all the previous games, people wouldn't be complaining so much about how easy were to beat the final bosses (and Omega Rugal would be way harder to beat).
@@davidnoimporta7668 At the very least it could regenerate when it's in the red (or rather, "in the orange") just so people can't do what Max ended up doing here.
Saying this was coming a Mile a way is an understatement
The fact his command grab super gives him a reflector state as he just WALKS AT YOU absolutely killed me
"I don't wanna see my boy DIE"
This 1:58
BREAKING NEWS: GOENITZ HAS ARRIVED & IS A NEW BOSS CHALLENGE!
My issue with this current kof boss challenge is that they don’t recover health which lowers the difficulty
Understand the CONCEPT OF LOVE!!!
If you ever Fight a Maniac on how to avoid a Spamming "Genocide Cutter," simply just *"Don't Jump!"*
Max said in the past that he trusted SNK to make a hard boss.
they didn't exactly fail, but he could've been a lot harder to beat
