    A small note about the lower thirds: We've recently upgraded our video editing software and it completely ruined them when transferring over. So after this ranked video, we're gonna make another custom lower third that's more similar to the older one, but we'd like to spice it up a little bit anyway.
    Hope you enjoy the video!

    One little detail I love about The Rook is that because he's an executioner, that's why he'd be firing heads at you. But that's not all. Notice that when he fires a pink head, it looks kinda shocked, maybe a little scared. But when you parry it, it gains a nasty grin. It's like it's ready to get revenge on The Rook.

      I think the difference is all about patterns. Even if there’s a lot of projectiles, what seems to be the most hardest, especially for pro-players who play the game a lot, is random patterns.
      Not being able to rely on muscle memory, but instead either pure luck or quick reflexes whilst also having to dodge other projectiles is what makes bosses hard.

    I completely disagree with your list, but its cool seeing what people consider more or less challenging, me personally, I can't stand the DLC bosses, maybe Mortimer Freeze is kinda easy, but every other boss is close to or in my top 10 hardest, with Chef Saltbaker probably being the hardest for me if not 2nd to Dr Kahl.

If it’s an easy boss then you don’t have to bother with the equip card but with the dragon it’s pretty much necessary.

    As some people have mentioned:
    Lobber and other weapons are extremely not appreciated enough, each boss (outside of flying stages) has a definitive weakness, there's a combination of weapons that will guarantee an easy win granted you know their patterns a bit, this combinations can get even more creative in multiplayer.
    Point is, for me, both solo and coop, Grim was outmatched by the lobber, and I consider many other bosses to be way more difficult.
    But that's the beauty of Cuphead, outside of it's art direction, it's actually an amazingly made game, it embraces it's simplicity yet it's variety can be astonishing and everyone can get sucked in into a different kind of play and experiences, and they all work!

    -Moonshine Mob in Bootlegger Boogie
    -Chef Saltbaker in A Dish to Die For
    -Secret Broken Relic graveyard fight against the devil
    -Glumstone The Giant in Gnome Way Out
    -Mortimer Freeze in Snow Cult Scuffle
    -Esther Winchester in High-Noon Hoopla
    The Howling Aces in Doggone Dogfight-Very Easy
    Moonshine Mob in Bootlegger Boogie-Pretty Easy
    Chef Saltbaker in A Dish to Die For-Tough until you play a couple times and learn his patterns
    Secret Broken Relic graveyard fight against the devil-Tough due to the amount of things happening all at once
    Glumstone The Giant in Gnome Way Out-Tough until you learn his pattern
    Mortimer Freeze in Snow Cult Scuffle-Very tough in first and final form, middle form is pretty simple once you learn attacks and patterns
    Esther Winchester in High-Noon Hoopla-Easily the toughest boss due to her many stages and tough attacks
    Crackshot is easily the best weapon in the game. It’s a mix of the peashooter and the chaser. It chases enemies and does good damage. Made these bosses a piece of cake.

  • @Towel9000

    A better strat for these “tough” bosses is don’t mostly use the tracker, with one of the lowest dps’ in the game it is not that good. To quickly defeat bosses, I’d recommend these shots
    1. Lobber
    2. Peashooter (surprisingly strong)
    3. Roundabout
    4. Crack shot (better than tracker)
    5. Spread
    These shots are the shots I’d recommend.

      Switched to spread for the devil fight, cuz I wanted to try it out and MAN it absolutely tears through him!
      Crackshot is imo the best shot in the game, as it deals sizeable damage and allows you to focus almost completely on movement. Lobber is super nice but feels VERY situational, and roundabout is great but I dropped it eventually, because I didn't like having so many bullets on screen at once! Very distracting.
      Didn't really give peashooter too much love, but I do love how simple to use it is!

      @@maroonluckyblockgames7062 not only that, but the placement of djimi being harder than the devil just seemed absurd, I like Nathaniel bandy, and everyone has their own opinions, but everything on this list is wrong 🤦‍♂ ( in my opinion )

    I had wildly different experiences with some of these. Cala Maria was hard as balls. And Welly Warbles and the Captain were so easy for me

      I thought Captain Brineybeard was super easy, thought Cala Maria was moderately difficult, and Wally Warbles was one of the more difficult in the game
