Goss really out here showing why he’s the toughest Ice user in sunbreak, first he out muscles rajang and now Lunagaron. Can’t wait to see how he holds up against aurora somnacanth. if only legiana and zamtrios were here. If velkhana or Ukanlos showed up then that’s out of his pay grade at that point.
Its even more i pressive here because unlike Rajang, Lunagaron hqd more health than goss and resisyed jce instead of being weak to it. But the master rank upgrades made Goss really strong. Such as not needing rhe jce bwam to pull out swords after half health
WoW, I can't believe that the one that I recommended was actually done! Amazing!! And I never expected Goss to win, it was a really close fight and Lunagaron almost takes the win at the end, what a good fight
7:15 I like this part because Goss Harag jumped over Lunagaron's ground wave and then counter with his own ground wave that might be a really cool counter 😎 😏
That was a a really close fight! I think that if Lunagaron wouldn't have gotten exhausted at 7:55 and 8:21 he could have won since that allowed Goss to do a lot of damage against him while he couldn't do anything at all. The only question is if he can beat Goss Harag in a revenge match, (if he gets a chance at one) or if Lunagaron just got dethroned as one of the three lords by a big angry bear.
This isn't a definitive showcase on who would actually win, just made for entertainment purposes. In reality, I'd wager that Lunagaron would beat Goss, as it beat Garangolm who could 100% beat the crap out of Goss Harag
@@DankMadness12 tbf to goss, he did survive an encounter with an enraged gore magala without enraging himself and he did launch tetranadon with one punch who isn’t very strong but is very heavy, and as fantastic as garangolm is he doesn’t rlly have any good feats against other monsters so we don’t rlly know what would happen
I at first thought it was gonna be be dead even, then I realized that base Goss was actually fighting even with enraged Lunagaron with his armor being up
What's interesting is that Regular Goss seemed to be much more effective than One Bladed Goss. It makes sense: One Bladed Goss attacks less frequently and has long recovery animations, which isn't good for a speedster like Lunagaron. That phase of the fight was similar to when a hunter fights that version of Goss: You can get around the attacks and counter but it will hurt like hell if you get hit.
The mane reason why lunagaron lost is because it puts way too much time between its attacks which leaves it open and goss has next to no time between attacks so no matter how fast or mobile lunagaron is if it doesn’t pick up the Pace it won’t be winning most of the time
In my eyes a deserved win for the only monster in the entirety of rise and sunbreak to triple cart me MR goss harag Sad that the 3 lords’ moveset doesn’t really give them the edge when it comes to fighting other monsters in game ( garangolm’s speed, lunagaron’s years worth of downtime, and malzeno’s normal state downtime and over all attack recovery)
Yeah the new monsters are very much geared towards the hunters, especially when the moves that have massive damage to players only do relatively normal damage to other monsters, to see Luna's backflip strike only do like 200dmg and leave him open enough to land about 900dmg worth of hits just shows how they should include a multiplier for if the attack is on another monster
I think variant is an batter option because if they are gonna make a subspecies it's gonna be a fire monster and I really hate how most of ice monsters turn into fire version
It seems that Lunagaron’s advantage is speed, agility, and defense and Goss Harag’s advantage is it has far more better ice capabilities and much more better attacks and has strength. Now you all maybe thinking why did I say Lunagaron has a better defense the reason for this is because it could make a ice armor but it seems that due to because Lunagaron not having that much of ice based attack while Goss Harag does has a lot of ice attacks when enraged which is the ice breath and ice weapons that could cause serious damage which is why I think that is the reason of why Goss Harag won in this battle.
After a grueling battle with the invader Rajang, Goss Harag knew that in order to truly become an apex and secure his own territory, he would have too study the blade. It wasn't just a sign of his skill and training, but a warning to those who cross him. Blood still dripped from the ice around his arms, crackling with electricity. Lunagaron had already suffered defeat at the hands of Malzeno and retreated to the Frost Islands in order to one day overthrow his rival lord. In order for that day to come, he would need to establish his own kingdom. His blue scales turned red in rage of his humilation. No matter what his opponent had accomplished, he would tear them to shreds. This would be the clash of ice. For the title of Apex in the Frost Islands.
I know this is based on the in-gameplay fights shown by the channel, but lore wise Rajang ties with Velkhana and Kushala, two ice monsters that are undoubtedly superior to Goss. He's shown greater feats of both strength (punching Deviljho into the ground from a disadvantageous position and being able to lift Bazelgeuse over his head and slam it on the floor) and speed (preying on the fastest monster in the entire franchise up until now), not to mention Goss is vulnerable to thunder. In lore, I'd definitely bet on the monkey
@@marcobrancorsini2479 MSS Deathmatch did a battle previously with Goss and Rajang. Goss won that fight and I based the story on these fights rather than actual lore.
It's Arzuros sheep vs wolf Zamtrios Fists vs claws Japanese oni vs European werewolf Thermo liquid Nitrogen vs polar liquid Nitrogen Brute strength vs agility New to the Franchise vs New to the franchise dlc And the winner is the one with freezing capacity
This was a battle of consistency versus style. Lunagaron had advantages in speed, power, and health, but he just couldn't leverage it well enough to stop Goss from landing steady hits. When Lunagaron tired out first between the two, Goss capitalized hard, while Goss's own exhaustion later hardly hindered the Namahage-bear at all. Like an ice sculptor, Goss spent the entire fight chipping away at Lunagaron little by little until Lunagaron just fell to pieces.
Strength build vs Dex build. You don’t need flash moves if you hit like an eighteen wheeler and then back up over your opponent when they start to get to their feet again.
@Caligula 300 man there is so many to choose from, it would have to be something from the older gens i never played. I like a challenge so i would have to go with Ahtal-Ka , seriously that fight looks amazing. With wirebugs now, i think it could be even better. What about you?
@@MSSDeathmatch I’ll have to look up that fight for myself to truly understand, I haven’t played many monster hunter games but I would like to see Gammoth or an equally huge monster just to make things more chaotic 😂
@@caligula3006 I'm on the same boat; haven't played any game before 5th gen. But honestly; I don't really care too much; I just hope eventually all the older monsters get ported into newer games.
This is my first Goss battle where I've actually seen his blades be more advantageous than the regular moveset, usually it seems like the moveset of the normal mode and how the AI manages it sees a few more results, but this, I was actually rooting for him to go Blade Mode.
@Thahat that poll was us in this channel, it was done before the fight to see what everyone else thought before we released the video. similar to how we did it for malzeno vs shagaru magala in my main channel
Is this high rank Goss. I don't know why but it doesn't feel like its the master rank one. I don't think master rank Goss ever used the iceball against me. It always pulled out the 2 swords.
@@stronghold325 true but the way he stands upright all the time tho rather than a Bearish like monster he’s more like an abominable snowman bc they walk upright they don’t walk on all fours all the time like Polar Bears do just saying! 😎👍
@@destinationjazz3403 The Namahage is a humanoid oni-like beast with a coat like Goss's, who frequently carry knives in one hand and seek out naughty children. They originate from a festival in a snowy town, where they're all played by neighbors or actors (the knives are always fake, none of them want to actually hurt the kids) who enter into homes and try to teach some lessons to children and 'scare'em straight' from what I can understand. Again, there's no denying it has parts of the Yeti in it, but it standing upright is because both monsters are humanoids who walk upright; I'm just saying it's predominantly the Yokai (it's japanese title is even 'Snow Oni Beast'). That's also the reason why it has the ice blades, too (the aforementioned knives). It's a nice touch. He does make a great yeti though. Goss is 10/10.
@@destinationjazz3403 Ye, all of the new monsters in rise take inspiration from various kinds of Yokai. Some, generally the more well-known ones, are more obvious (Bombadgy is the Tanuki, Tetranadon is a Kappa, etc) while others are more obscure (Somnacanth is based on the japanese equivalent of a mermaid, which are basically fish-devils, but it also pulls from western mermaids as well). It's honestly really cool how much effort and detail the team put into the new guys. Namahage is a big cultural phenomenon in Japan but it's very rare for someone overseas to know about it; Goss is a brilliant adaptation of the idea by taking the mystical oni that lives in the cold lands and turning it into a monstrous ursine boogeyman that's not just powerful but highly intelligent: it understands tool usage, will try to aim where it thinks you're heading instead of standing, will throw snow boulders or make quakes to knock down people standing too high or far for it to reach, and most importantly it's unique animation when a hunter is stunned near it shows it has emotional intelligence and takes pleasure from fear. He's not just an awesome monster, he's pretty damn terrifying. Seeing him suddenly go from hunched over to standing upright and slowly drag his blade over while grinning as you try to mash out of stun is a good way to feel anxiety, and it perfectly captures the terror that the Namahage is meant to induce. The costume masks also tend to be blue or red (ala blue oni/red oni), which is why Goss starts out icy blue before literally turning red with rage. He's probably the most in-depth and detailed of all of Rise's Yokai Monsters, and it shows. Fittingly, just as he is overseas, he's also really popular in Japan. Say what you want about Rise, but in terms of creature design they knocked it out of the park.
Yeah but there is a problem with Rajang in rise and that is it freaking slow in rise in the past games Rajang was so fast but now here for some reason capcom decided to nerf it’s speed which I’m really disappointed at, considering it is supposed to be a monkey monster that is a elder tier level monster that shows great strength and speed.
I am gonna say it one last time but Goss Harag is not a bear, he has hands with opposable thumb so he is closer to monkeys or humans than bears. It also makes sense from his inspiration as it seems to some kind of yeti fused with a oni. It also runs away in matter more akin to gorillas than bears.
@@beepboop2021 Lunagaron is not really a wolf technically speaking because it is a reptile. (It is a fanged wyvern after all.) It is only wolf-looking. Goss Harag is actually a mammal since it is a fanged beast so we can’t really say it is a bear while it has obvious opposable thumb. Goss Harag shares almost nothing with bears anyway.
Actually Goss Harag is a monster that was based on the Namahage and a Bear, it was leaked as the “Namahage Bear” back before Rise came out. that and it uses the Ursine fanged beast body type that Arzuros, Lagombi and Volvidon use, Just because it has little bear features doesn’t mean it doesn’t have some bear in it as inspiration. A part of Arzuros was inspired by the Honey Badger but it doesn’t seem that way because he just looks like a bear right? Just as much as Goss Harag doesn’t look much like a bear because his primary inspiration was the Namahage. That’s the great thing about Monster Hunter! It doesn’t have to 100% look like something for the inspiration to be there, that’s how we get all these amazing designs, they mix things together and just go with it!
Lore wise a lot of stuff in these games doesn’t make sense (Bagel getting bodied by Maggie despite it fending of DEVILJHO; Maggie’s ludicrous plot armor and inconsistent portrayal in general, Gore Magala and the frenzy virus having zero impact or establishment despite the ecological effects it causes begins the entire basis for its intro game’s plot, etc). I can totally (and very very happily) believe that The Goss Boss would eviscerate the wolf in an actual fight, and that they’d just want you to think otherwise because “I said so”. It makes sense especially because Goss is already canonically proven to be surprisingly intelligent, or at least pretty smart (understanding of tool usage and the fact that it derives joy from fear with that terrifying blade drag it does to stunned hunters, plus it’s skilled enough to adapt such as reacting to attackers out of range by picking up snow boulders and chucking them at them) and it’s styling of fighting just counters Moon Boys. What I’m trying to say is in a battle of icy boys He’s just cooler
“Low Goss Harag” Goss is among the most powerful monsters in the base game and it’s very consistently portrayed as a terrifying opponent. It’s also the first/only ursine fanged beast that’s endgame levels. While Goss doesn’t have much lore in the way of other monsters outside of the frost islands relic story, it’s turf war has it clock terry so hard in the jaw that he’s sent flying through the air. And Tetranadons are massive, not to mention it’s after it filled up on rocks. Goss isn’t the focus of the game but he’s clearly really strong. It feels a disservice to him to act like he’s just an arzuros.
@@ericocuaca854 Gore, despite being juvenile and classified as ??? Is still technically an elder dragon + he's already muscular and strong enough in this state. Even then, Goss still could resist and even punch Gore Magala in the face until he used his wingarms to hold him.
It’s worth pointing out that Gore Magala ambushed Goss with a sneak attack, rather than a straight assault, because Goss is strong enough that it wants to get any advantage it can. Even then, Goss Harag isn’t actually floored by the surprise assault and manages to fight back before Gore enters its rage mode without Goss going into his. More importantly though, sneaking up allowed Gore to infect Goss with the frenzy virus before the fight began via the dander in its scales and then piled it on further with its attack. Goss Harag is ultimately subdued because of the virus, upon which Gore leaves it behind. Even then, however, Goss is shown to not be dead, as monsters that are strong enough can survive the virus and Goss is shown to be twitching and breathing. It’s entirely possible that some poor unfortunate sap will have a run in with an APEX Goss Harag, and given how tough base Goss is an Apex would probably be exceedingly dangerous. This isn’t to say that good ol’ ordinary Goss Harag itself would definitively defeat Gore Magala (in my opinion it would be improbable, but not impossible), but it’s pretty obvious that if it was a straight up fight he’d have given it one hell of a beating regardless of how it ended.

bro its a monster, it can be based of a bear and still have opposable thumbs that's like saying lunagaron isn't a wolf because its semi bipedal
@@beepboop2021 Lunagaron is not really a wolf technically speaking because it is a reptile. (It is a fanged wyvern after all.) It is only wolf-looking. Goss Harag is actually a mammal since it is a fanged beast so we can’t really say it is a bear while it has obvious opposable thumb. Goss Harag shares almost nothing with bears anyway.
Actually Goss Harag is a monster that was based on the Namahage and a Bear, it was leaked as the “Namahage Bear” back before Rise came out. that and it uses the Ursine fanged beast body type that Arzuros, Lagombi and Volvidon use, Just because it has little bear features doesn’t mean it doesn’t have some bear in it as inspiration. A part of Arzuros was inspired by the Honey Badger but it doesn’t seem that way because he just looks like a bear right? Just as much as Goss Harag doesn’t look much like a bear because his primary inspiration was the Namahage. That’s the great thing about Monster Hunter! It doesn’t have to 100% look like something for the inspiration to be there, that’s how we get all these amazing designs, they mix things together and just go with it!
Polar Goss Harag when?

Goss got revenge for his beastly brother, Garangolm
Shoulda have know
@Lunagaron this fight does not mean Goss is stronger of the two, you saw how close the fight was; im 100% sure lunagaron can win another encounter
Yea your right
The General Of Wrath VS The Alpha Male
Das war knapp ich würde Sagen wenn sie 10 mal gegeneinander kämpfen würden würde jeder jeweils 5 Kämpfe gewinnen
Disappointing but there's a reason why bears steal wolf kills in real life. Though of course Lore wise this doesn't make any sense.
Lore wise a lot of stuff in these games doesn’t make sense (Bagel getting bodied by Maggie despite it fending of DEVILJHO; Maggie’s ludicrous plot armor and inconsistent portrayal in general, Gore Magala and the frenzy virus having zero impact or establishment despite the ecological effects it causes begins the entire basis for its intro game’s plot, etc).
I can totally (and very very happily) believe that The Goss Boss would eviscerate the wolf in an actual fight, and that they’d just want you to think otherwise because “I said so”. It makes sense especially because Goss is already canonically proven to be surprisingly intelligent, or at least pretty smart (understanding of tool usage and the fact that it derives joy from fear with that terrifying blade drag it does to stunned hunters, plus it’s skilled enough to adapt such as reacting to attackers out of range by picking up snow boulders and chucking them at them) and it’s styling of fighting just counters Moon Boys.
What I’m trying to say is in a battle of icy boys
He’s just cooler
Sorry Lunagaron, but in real life the furrys are who lose the battle
Well yea furrys do lose But Why did I have to lose to a bear IM TECHINAICLY THE ICE PRINCE😔
@@Sad78p because Goss has fucking badass doubles ice swords. This is so epic
Sigh guess I can't be a fighter that good
@@Sad78p Why can't you be like your redder cousin?
WHY because I CANT FIGHT I CANT DO ANYTHING COOL IM JUST A WORTHLESS WOLF
You got to be kidding me,lunagaron one of the 3 Lord lose with low goss garag, what a pathetic.
“Low Goss Harag”
Goss is among the most powerful monsters in the base game and it’s very consistently portrayed as a terrifying opponent. It’s also the first/only ursine fanged beast that’s endgame levels. While Goss doesn’t have much lore in the way of other monsters outside of the frost islands relic story, it’s turf war has it clock terry so hard in the jaw that he’s sent flying through the air. And Tetranadons are massive, not to mention it’s after it filled up on rocks. Goss isn’t the focus of the game but he’s clearly really strong. It feels a disservice to him to act like he’s just an arzuros.
@@stronghold325 the how goss harag lost with gore magala in the first place?
@@ericocuaca854 Gore, despite being juvenile and classified as ??? Is still technically an elder dragon + he's already muscular and strong enough in this state.
Even then, Goss still could resist and even punch Gore Magala in the face until he used his wingarms to hold him.
@@k.guzhvin4952 yep, that is how goss garag end, beating from gore magala
It’s worth pointing out that Gore Magala ambushed Goss with a sneak attack, rather than a straight assault, because Goss is strong enough that it wants to get any advantage it can. Even then, Goss Harag isn’t actually floored by the surprise assault and manages to fight back before Gore enters its rage mode without Goss going into his. More importantly though, sneaking up allowed Gore to infect Goss with the frenzy virus before the fight began via the dander in its scales and then piled it on further with its attack. Goss Harag is ultimately subdued because of the virus, upon which Gore leaves it behind.
Even then, however, Goss is shown to not be dead, as monsters that are strong enough can survive the virus and Goss is shown to be twitching and breathing. It’s entirely possible that some poor unfortunate sap will have a run in with an APEX Goss Harag, and given how tough base Goss is an Apex would probably be exceedingly dangerous.
This isn’t to say that good ol’ ordinary Goss Harag itself would definitively defeat Gore Magala (in my opinion it would be improbable, but not impossible), but it’s pretty obvious that if it was a straight up fight he’d have given it one hell of a beating regardless of how it ended.
That was stupid luna should have *and* would have won
He got Gossed
Don’t mess with the Harag
