The fight in Asylum was a huge difficulty fight for me when I first played as well, I'm kinda glad it was though because it forced me to learn the mechanics properly, if he was easier I probably would've struggled a lot more with the rest of the game
I think the hardest in my opinion was the Catwomans Revenge DLC, when you fight the Riddler bots, with electric floors and lasers made the fight really claustrophobic, the space gets smaller and so many robots just keep coming.
I struggled with this fight wayyyy more than any other fight in any of the games, weird he didn’t even give it an honourable mention? Surely must’ve just forgotten about it
it's absolutely harder, but i thik it doesn't count as a boss, just like the final fight in the game before you go to confront scarecrow...or the same exact roof fight with nightwing, they are hard, but don't count as boss battles since, well, there isn't a boss there
Nah, the hardest boss has gotta be that fight against Penguin at the very beginning of Arkham City when you're just Bruce Wayne. Penguin's brass knuckles are unbeatable, I died so many times bro 😭😭

It's ironic how easy Electrocutioner is to defeat given how the Shock Gloves are easily the most OP gadget not only within the Arkham series, but arguably in mainstream video games in general.
@@captainblighe7297Origins will never get a remaster because the ownership rights to it are about as tangled as it gets. It's a long story, but in short basically the OST for Arkham Origins isn't owned by WB, it's actually owned by the game's composer, and that composer just so happens to be someone who holds a massive grudge (rightfully so) against WB for some crappy things they did including not paying everything that was owed, and so as a result he publicly swore off ever working with WB again in any capacity. Do you see the problem? Arkham Origins is basically in the same legal hell that Sonic 3 & Knuckles was for so long, but unlike Sonic 3 (which only had one or two songs that had issues) the ENTIRE soundtrack of Origins is tied up in the thickest red tape possible. That's not even taking into account how the development of Origins was split three ways between WB Montreal, Splash Damage, and Rocksteady (Rocksteady may not have been the main devs for Origins, but they still supplied most of the game's base code and assets). Plus Origins is kind of a buggy mess, even today, so cleaning it up will take a lot more money and resources than the other more popular games, and WB isn't going to view more work for a less popular game as worth the investment, and factoring in the legal issues... Yeah, just forget about it. Hardly anyone ever talks about the legal issues surrounding Origins, but it's all public knowledge that is available to everyone so there's really no excuse for people to act like the lack of a Origins re-release is some big mystery.
It comes down to the guy wearing them. Batman is an S+ tier fighter. If you don't know how to fight, you'll never land a hit, making the shock gloves useless.
Poison Ivy from asylum is easily the hardest boss in the arkham series due to you having to use the quick bater, then it would probably be Mr. freeze from city
I admittedly haven’t played Origins without counter indicators. But I never had an issue with Deathstroke on normal difficulty. The game literally goes in slo-mo when you get a counter opportunity. Making it incredibly easy to tell when to counter. I think I did him on my first or second try. He’s more of a spectacle boss than a challenge boss imo
I will admit, I almost died when fighting Slade the very first time, since I never expected such a complex boss fight in the game (I played Origins last, so I thought I had seen it all after beating Knight so many times).
It took me a couple tries to beat him. I think my main hindrance was my muscle memory making me want to counter as soon as I saw his strike coming. Basically, I got impatient. Once I learned to wait, it got easier. Counterintuitive but effective. Still have to be fast though.
I find it funny how the two hardest fights in the series are both against arguably two of Batman's most skilled foes who try to match him on his level. It feels fitting. They're also both in Origins(a younger, dumber Batman, Year 2) which further adds to it. Deathstroke being harder for new players makes sense as he's PURE SKILL and TALENT, while Bane being harder for more e experienced players checks out as he has the muscle and power to back it up. Canon Compliant Difficulty Curve . Heck Shiva being 3rd fits this...and Freeze...uh...well Batman was kinda dying at the time so fair
I was expecting the fight with Shiva to more like the Slade fight but with even more emphasis on hand-to-hand. The fact that Shiva herself was easier than her teammates was disappointing.
Deadshot (AO/Hard mode) is actually pretty hard if you screw up (no smoke). If the thugs spot you going to a gargoyle and lose you, they will start destroying the gargoyles. Not to mention there's a large number/variety of thugs (no armored thugs on NG+). Deadshot on the other hand is essentially a armored enemy with a long range ricochet shotgun and can actually do pretty good damage. The hostage part is also hard since he turns around very quickly and I'm pretty sure I once got the death screen because I made noise close to him.
That’s one of my roadblocks for I am the night mode, copperhead can be tough since it’s hard to tell if she’s attacking you or doing the knife move. Also, there’s that move where she climbs on top of you that I don’t know how to dodge.
Also, for Freeze: I found out in my last playthrough that the explosive gel walls and glass windows DO NOT respawn if you broke them in the predator encounter earlier in the game. So it's possible to accidentally remove two possible takedowns.
Don't feel bad. So did I. It didn't occur to me that I could sneak up behind him because he always somehow heard my remote batarang. I guess Batman is quieter and faster than a batarang? 🤷♂️😅
This list would also depend on whether u played keyboard or controller. For me, when I was playing keyboard, clay face was a pain because of how far I had to stretch my finger to spam the freeze blast and then go back to awsd to dodge. Basically any fight that involved me spamming a move past the 3 key was hard
Deathstroke will forever be my redemption boss, I got the game when it first came out, made it up to deathstroke and after about 3 months of failed attempt after failed attempt, I put the game away and never took it out of the case, about 6 years later I decided to give it another shot and I beat it first try. This is also why I will never play I am the night mode
Copperhead is pretty difficult on New Game Plus IF you don't employ the explosive gel strat. I died because I was focused on trying to counter her attacks, but due to the unusual way she moved I kept getting hit. Then I started spamming quickfire explosive gel, and she was really easy. I am on the Night is gonna be a cakewalk.
Copperhead is a lot easier if you spam concussion blasts, since those one-hit the fake Copperheads. It's still a hard fight because the blasts take ages to detonate, but still it's a good strat to keep in mind for I am the Night mode.
Just finished I am the night yesterday. It was pretty easy, with probably the hardest boss being Killer Croc lmao. (My A Button I think is jammed because I can never press the button fast enough), I still beat him though.
One thing that consistently makes Arkham bosses harder is the fact that some of them actively punish the player for playing the game wrong, when every other encounter gives the player a pass. Mr. Freeze punishes the player for not varying their takedowns, Deathstroke from Origins punishes the player for countering when the game doesn't tell you to, and Bane from Origins punishes you for spamming dodge.
once hard boss fight which is super underrated is Poison Ivy on hard in Arkham Asylum I genuinely ragequitted playing, and on replays I always either die or get super close while fighting her
I know they weren't hard but for some reason I really struggled with the batmobile vs drill mission from Arkham knight. I died like 30 times to that boss for some reason.
That's probably because the Batmobile sequences are so tedious that it's genuinely difficult to stay engaged, thus making the simplest things seem harder than they are.
My first time playing I died a bunch there too. I think it is because you don't actually do those types of things in the story very frequently. Your only practice would be the riddler races if you decided to do those. It was genuinely the most difficult part of the game my first playthrough though now I get through it without difficulty
AK is one of my favourite games of all time but i have to agree you cant put Slade in a copy and pasted story mission and make it easier while Riddler gets a challenging boss fight Hell i even felt Slade's anger after the fight when he said 'if you were any type of man you would pull the car over and finish this' i would there to be an option CMON ROCKSTEADY
So my first I Am The Night run didnt end at Bane, i got past him with 25% health remaining which surprised me. No i had to restart it because the game glitched and took away all my gadgets so i wouldn't be able to complete the Bridge and Blackgate without the Remote Claw.
Deathstroke is definitely one of the toughest for most players, for me not so much, though I struggled a lot when I fought him the first time, took me literal hours and bested him the next day, I went from there to being able to flawlessly able to beat him without taking damage. He was probably really hard for me because of the Cinematic counters, I kept pressing it to early and was never to able to understand how it worked until my second play through of the game.
From watching a freind play the series (it was his first time) he seemed to struggle the most on the carnival fight thing with joker, Mr hammer and the titan, i know its technically not a boss but the things i heard him say in pure rage at that fight (i didnt help by booting up a save and doing it first try mind you) could put that man in jail.
It's tough until you remember to unlock the special combo stun move. At that point you just cheese the titan thug and continue on to cheese mr Hammer before giving joker his ko assuming you didn't do it already on accident.
I had died in that fight on New Game + so many times the first time I played City. But nowadays, I cheese it with Freeflow Explosive Gel + Multi-Ground Takedown.
Yeah man when I played city on that part that was the hardest city fight. For me too the fight that took me the longest out of every game though was the Asylum fight with 2 titans and the waves of goons that came titan joker was so bad and easy compared to that.
I finished playing arkham knight for the first time recently and when I was fighting deathstroke I legit treating it as if it was the cloudburst fight again so I did the very cheesy strategy of find a corner and shooting deathstroke's tank expecting it to go down like the cloudburst, it took me a good few shots in to realize "wait can i just shoot this guy like he was just a regular tank?" and was very amused by how the fight ended.
Deathstroke in Arkham Origins for me was the hardest boss. When I first played the game on Xbox 360 in 2013 he made me rage quit after tons of times dying and I never played the game since. 11 years later I got the game again on PS3 and once again I failed many attempts to defeat him resulting in me screaming and raging, but thankfully I read a guide on tactics to use for it which miraculously worked and I defeated him.
How I beat Freeze on Medium: 1) Immediately use the Disruptor 2) Immediately shoot the electromagnet 3) Lure him in a clockwise circle and silent takedown 4) Continue the circle and when Freeze is on the long stretch opposite the water, line launcher (never had difficulty with this and first used it on NG+) 5) Immediately hop into the nearby vent and do one final takedown. This is an extremely easy and consistent method for me. The only way I screw up is if I accidently climb up something when I don't want to.
I think I struggled more with the cloud burst, but Bane and Deathstroke immediately destroyed me every retry on the first attempt, even when I took them 100% seriously, and there was a reason why they tell you all your options after a bit in the freeze fight
I was gonna riot when I saw Slade at 2nd hardest, but after hearing "Bane train", all the migraines that are hardwired to the memories came flooding back
The Bane Train strategy has a use in another game: Witcher 3 Blood and Wine, specifically on DM-NG plus. Here's the situation, the final boss, while entirely optional, has multiple attacks that can kill Geralt in 1 hit, even with grandmaster gear and a Quen shield active. Specifically in phase 2 of 3, the boss sends a wave of bats directly on to your location, and the dodge window is frame perfect. No joke, the better option is to start running before he send out the bats.
Deadshot fight in Arkham Origins during, I Am the Knight difficulty. Beat the game then went after deadshot, he’s got a ton of health, non stop spawning goons every time you knock them out. Not to mention you can’t silently knock out anyone from behind. I died and the game restarted and just about broke the tv.
I love how honest you are in the sponsorship, from blatantly obvious reading from a script, to saying out loud that you also need to talk about something. And to talk about bosses, well 1, I'm going to embarrass myself and say I actually had a hard time with Nightwing when I first played the Harley DLC, I can take him out easily now, but I was genuinely that bad when I first fought him. And 2, I have actually still not beaten Initiation Shiva, I was just as bad as I was when I fought Nightwing when I did that, and I can't fight her now because I don't have the DLC anymore because the PS3 that I had it broke, "Well just buy the DLC again" I am not going through all the hoops that Sony makes you to get stuff off the PS3 store now.
I think that the most hardest Bosses to beat was the TN-1 Bane fight from Arkham Origins mainly cause of the Horror like Music that plays throughout the Level,It almost felt like that you were in a Horror Movie.
@@samtinkle9076If you vault over enemies, you can't get hit until you land on the ground. If you just vault normally, then you can get hit. But yeah, it's easier to run.
Tbh when I went through City trying to doing damageless on hard, the only reason I was able to beat Grundy is because there's checkpoints between phases. It would have been Hell getting hit at the end of phase 3 just to go all the way back to phase 1
Ok, firstly, ouch my pride. I still have genuine trouble on the Origins Deathstroke boss even in NG+ and IATN, Secondly; props for not including Electrocutioner. I thought for sure he or Hush would be number 1 for the easiest, and as someone who likes Electrocutioner from a story standpoint in Origins, I was fully prepared to roll my eyes and go "of course..."
I don't think Black Mask is armored in Arkham Origins, but on New Game + he has a cool shotgun that doesn't have any functionality in combat and results in him just standing awkwardly.
You know that you don't even have to neutralize the cobras if you show up with a full weapons generator or for me even without you can just go straight to him when he's alone and take him out without any threat because slade is stupid
When fighting freeze, you can make him come to you. After using the disruptor override and the line launcher, use those both again to lure freeze to you.
What if instead of just getting a cutscene at the end of Arkham knight we got a boss with scarecrow with Jason as a second person where you go in and out of the nightmare realm with Batman in the realm and Jason out of it. It would be soooooo much fun to play and it would be an introduction to play Jason.
To add on the the black mask fight, if black mask shoots you, the bullets do no damage, I’m not kidding, I played the dlc on two different consoles so it’s clearly not a bug with my system
On the Deathstroke " boss " battle in Arkham Knight I used the CPU virus upgrade on a couple of cobra tanks and they attacked Deathstroke causing him to take all the damage all I had to do was fire a round from the batmobile's gun to finish him off making it easier than it already was
Electrocutioner being as much of a Joke as he is makes sense in context. He's got a bad case of 'Big Fish, Small Pond.' Most of the other assassins are either from Gotham(Croc, Deathshot, Firefly), have trained amongst the best in the world(Shiva, Deathstroke) or have studied up on Batman(Copperhead, Bane). Electrocutioner is an enforcer who's active in Eastern Europe, where there are basically no superheroes or supervillains active. He mostly deals with regular thugs and crooked cops. He's VERY good at that where he does that, hence his reputation, but in Gotham he's behind the curve. He also mainly relies on his Electro-Gloves(Batsuit can deal with most of that and easy enough to dodge), fear(useless against Batman or honestly most of his rogues gallery), and muscle(which is impressive against regular thugs, puny against people like Batman or Bane or Croc). He was way out of his league and never cut out for the job. Honestly, I would be curious to see him fight, like, Year 1 Batman. Most versions of the Mytho's set Year 2 as when he really started to deal with Supervillains, the first batch of em like Joker and Ivy show up. Year 1 is mostly dealing with the mob familes like Thorne and Falcone and Batman isn't even usually confirmed to exist at that point. I could see Electrocutioner being used well as a sort of 'First Semi-Super Villain' for Batman to fight, have one of the mob families hire him to find out if The Bat is real and kill him. He could hold his own if Batman's only been doing his thing for like 3 months.
Granted, I did play Asylum and City first but I never struggled with the Deathstroke fight. It took a bit to get timing right but he simply didn’t do enough damage to be a threat. Don’t get me wrong, it’s still top 2 bosses in the series but I wish they beefed up the difficulty and put it later in the game so we could remember it for being harder
The first time I played AO, I was nervous about fighting the bosses. I got a false sense of security kicking Electrocutioners teeth in, though I know it was a gimmick. Then you fight Deathstroke….it took me a while to beat him😂
During my latest Playthrough of Arkham Knight I tested to see if you could beat Deathstroke without battling any of the cobra tanks, and it was embarrassingly easy. I was expecting that all six would suddenly converge on my location to support their boss, but only one of them ever showed up and even then I was able to use street corners to evade it attacks for the most part.
I remember the death stroke fight on Xbox 360. And man 10 year old me went through it 😭 I stayed up till I was genuinely fatigued and was getting worse . I fell asleep and no joke my dream that night was literally when it clicked I knew the strategy I needed to use . First thing I did that morning was turn it on and no joke I beat him first try 😭 Core memory fs.
watching this really made me question just how the hell I was able to finish origins when I was 7,I managed to die a lot against clayface and then I also managed to defeat deathstroke and bane
TN-1 bane was really hard for me. it made me super anxious first time I played arkham origins bc he would grab into vents, and after a certain amount of time, he would take you down in one hit. I never felt more terrified then doing the TN-1 bane fight
For me Death stroke (origins) fight was hard, no only because it was hard but because the first 5 tries i didn't understand what I had to do exactly, and then and it's not a joke, it was the night wing fight in Harley Quinn dlc, only because I couldn't charge maniac mode during the combat and because for some reason I always struggle with enemies with electric weapons, and the bane of origins wasn't that hard for me, it Only took me like 2 times
The “gimmick” (I think that’s the wrong term, there is a lot of intrinsic value in this fight) of the Deathstroke fight isn’t perfect countering or learning the counter system. It’s precision itself, especially in striking. Learning to not button mash. For instance, if you press the attack button even one more time than you need to, the game makes Deathstroke counter you. Same with parrying or anything else. Try it out, but record it. I love when a veteran tries something new.
The very first time I fought Freeze, I lost because I thought you kept having to use the disruptor to beat him. They gave you this gadget earlier in the game so I thought it was the simple solution to everything. Whenever I fought a boss in any video game, Zelda especially, the only solution to beating them is to use the item they’re weak to over and over again until they die. I started playing the Metal Gear Solid games earlier that year, and the bosses like the harrier jet and the metal gears themselves are only beaten by using the stinger missile against them. But Freeze completely shook that concept, because how was I supposed to know that using any item against him even once meant that was now useless.
Ill never forget how happy and proud i was when i defeated Hotel Bane in I am the night. And then lose my mind when i lost against Deadshot afterwards.
Actually, I would add another reason to leave the Catwoman/Two-Face fight as an Honorable Mention and that's because there's actually a RIDICULOUSLY cheesy way to beat it, if you're not too proud (which I NEVER am 😁). When Two-Face leaves the middle walkway and heads to the lookout by the entrance, you can lure pretty much all his goons to come looking for you on the opposite end the room, leaving him virtually unprotected. Once you've done that, sneak back over to the entrance and start attacking Two-Face. You can't stop him from calling for help, of course, but since it only takes three knockdowns to beat him, all you really need to do is just keep pounding away and you'll completely obliterate his health bar, triggering the victory cutscene before his crew can reach the other side of the room to gun you down. Like I said...ridiculously cheesy. ^_^
Arkham Origins really showed us the best borh Bane and Deathstroke could offer Too bad time wasn't as nice to Deathstroke as it was to Bane (boss fight wise)
I beat knight well over a dozen times, I’ve never thought to hack the cobra tanks. Then again I only just recently found out you could run slide into grates to open them quicker, so I’m a slow learner
Arkham City's Mr. Freeze may not be the hardest In the series, but for me, he will ALWAYS be the scariest. That blue bald mf got me terrified as a kid, even more than Killer Croc In Asylum.
Bro was speaking the truth about this being one of the hardest bosses if not the hardest boss for new players because I decided to use PS plus to pick up our origins. I got to this boss with barely any upgrades. The only reason after like 16 tries I beat this fight is because, I had a few upgrades in armor for close combat attacks and I had learned some of the timings. This was definitely a very big skill jump from everything I had faced before this boss fight but after 16 tries, I got everything on lock still nearly died though, but I was able to beat the fight 17:19

Deathstroke will forever be my redemption boss, I got the game when it first came out, made it up to deathstroke and after about 3 months of failed attempt after failed attempt, I put the game away and never took it out of the case, about 6 years later I decided to give it another shot and I beat it first try. This is also why I will never play I am the night mode
This video helped me defeat slade on my second try for my first-time playthrough of Origins. Thanks!
Bane as well!
Copperhead is pretty difficult on New Game Plus IF you don't employ the explosive gel strat. I died because I was focused on trying to counter her attacks, but due to the unusual way she moved I kept getting hit. Then I started spamming quickfire explosive gel, and she was really easy. I am on the Night is gonna be a cakewalk.
Copperhead is a lot easier if you spam concussion blasts, since those one-hit the fake Copperheads. It's still a hard fight because the blasts take ages to detonate, but still it's a good strat to keep in mind for I am the Night mode.
@@HOTD108_ yeah I was actually doing this boss last night actually lol. Gonna keep this in mind for I am the Night.
Just finished I am the night yesterday. It was pretty easy, with probably the hardest boss being Killer Croc lmao. (My A Button I think is jammed because I can never press the button fast enough), I still beat him though.
Damn, feeling proud now that I got the Deathstroke no hit achievement on accident during a normal playthrough
One thing that consistently makes Arkham bosses harder is the fact that some of them actively punish the player for playing the game wrong, when every other encounter gives the player a pass. Mr. Freeze punishes the player for not varying their takedowns, Deathstroke from Origins punishes the player for countering when the game doesn't tell you to, and Bane from Origins punishes you for spamming dodge.
They should have done this more often
@@Solid_Sayori bane punishes the player cause he has a thing for it
once hard boss fight which is super underrated is Poison Ivy on hard in Arkham Asylum
I genuinely ragequitted playing, and on replays I always either die or get super close while fighting her
I remember when I first fought slade it took me like an hour to understand it, now he's my favourite boss of all time in the batman series.
I know they weren't hard but for some reason I really struggled with the batmobile vs drill mission from Arkham knight. I died like 30 times to that boss for some reason.
What's good man, you doing alright
That's probably because the Batmobile sequences are so tedious that it's genuinely difficult to stay engaged, thus making the simplest things seem harder than they are.
My first time playing I died a bunch there too. I think it is because you don't actually do those types of things in the story very frequently. Your only practice would be the riddler races if you decided to do those. It was genuinely the most difficult part of the game my first playthrough though now I get through it without difficulty
The amount of times i died to that boss in ng+ is insane😂 don't feel bad it happens to everyone
fr man that fight and the cloudburst fight always give me trouble and ive been playing racing games for a decade now
AK is one of my favourite games of all time but i have to agree you cant put Slade in a copy and pasted story mission and make it easier while Riddler gets a challenging boss fight
Hell i even felt Slade's anger after the fight when he said 'if you were any type of man you would pull the car over and finish this' i would there to be an option
CMON ROCKSTEADY
The mentioning of the legendary "Rick The Door Technician" got me good keep the good content up by the way.
So my first I Am The Night run didnt end at Bane, i got past him with 25% health remaining which surprised me. No i had to restart it because the game glitched and took away all my gadgets so i wouldn't be able to complete the Bridge and Blackgate without the Remote Claw.
I dodged like none of Clayfaces attacks and still beat him.
13:37 Foreshadowing for later on the list.
You know what makes Bird even easier?
You can just glide kick and ground takedown him and he is finished.
Deathstroke is definitely one of the toughest for most players, for me not so much, though I struggled a lot when I fought him the first time, took me literal hours and bested him the next day, I went from there to being able to flawlessly able to beat him without taking damage. He was probably really hard for me because of the Cinematic counters, I kept pressing it to early and was never to able to understand how it worked until my second play through of the game.
From watching a freind play the series (it was his first time) he seemed to struggle the most on the carnival fight thing with joker, Mr hammer and the titan, i know its technically not a boss but the things i heard him say in pure rage at that fight (i didnt help by booting up a save and doing it first try mind you) could put that man in jail.
It's tough until you remember to unlock the special combo stun move. At that point you just cheese the titan thug and continue on to cheese mr Hammer before giving joker his ko assuming you didn't do it already on accident.
I had died in that fight on New Game + so many times the first time I played City.
But nowadays, I cheese it with Freeflow Explosive Gel + Multi-Ground Takedown.
Yeah man when I played city on that part that was the hardest city fight. For me too the fight that took me the longest out of every game though was the Asylum fight with 2 titans and the waves of goons that came titan joker was so bad and easy compared to that.
I finished playing arkham knight for the first time recently and when I was fighting deathstroke I legit treating it as if it was the cloudburst fight again so I did the very cheesy strategy of find a corner and shooting deathstroke's tank expecting it to go down like the cloudburst, it took me a good few shots in to realize "wait can i just shoot this guy like he was just a regular tank?" and was very amused by how the fight ended.
Deathstroke in Arkham Origins for me was the hardest boss. When I first played the game on Xbox 360 in 2013 he made me rage quit after tons of times dying and I never played the game since. 11 years later I got the game again on PS3 and once again I failed many attempts to defeat him resulting in me screaming and raging, but thankfully I read a guide on tactics to use for it which miraculously worked and I defeated him.
How I beat Freeze on Medium:
1) Immediately use the Disruptor
2) Immediately shoot the electromagnet
3) Lure him in a clockwise circle and silent takedown
4) Continue the circle and when Freeze is on the long stretch opposite the water, line launcher (never had difficulty with this and first used it on NG+)
5) Immediately hop into the nearby vent and do one final takedown.
This is an extremely easy and consistent method for me. The only way I screw up is if I accidently climb up something when I don't want to.
I think I struggled more with the cloud burst, but Bane and Deathstroke immediately destroyed me every retry on the first attempt, even when I took them 100% seriously, and there was a reason why they tell you all your options after a bit in the freeze fight
The first time I played the AO Bane final boss fight, I actually got spooked when my detective mode scrambled lol, I had to really LOCK IN
I was gonna riot when I saw Slade at 2nd hardest, but after hearing "Bane train", all the migraines that are hardwired to the memories came flooding back
Pretty good list, but the final Catwoman fight vs riddler in the DLC made me want to get ran through and then injected with banes venom
The Bane Train strategy has a use in another game: Witcher 3 Blood and Wine, specifically on DM-NG plus. Here's the situation, the final boss, while entirely optional, has multiple attacks that can kill Geralt in 1 hit, even with grandmaster gear and a Quen shield active. Specifically in phase 2 of 3, the boss sends a wave of bats directly on to your location, and the dodge window is frame perfect. No joke, the better option is to start running before he send out the bats.
Deadshot fight in Arkham Origins during, I Am the Knight difficulty. Beat the game then went after deadshot, he’s got a ton of health, non stop spawning goons every time you knock them out. Not to mention you can’t silently knock out anyone from behind. I died and the game restarted and just about broke the tv.
I love how honest you are in the sponsorship, from blatantly obvious reading from a script, to saying out loud that you also need to talk about something.
And to talk about bosses, well 1, I'm going to embarrass myself and say I actually had a hard time with Nightwing when I first played the Harley DLC, I can take him out easily now, but I was genuinely that bad when I first fought him. And 2, I have actually still not beaten Initiation Shiva, I was just as bad as I was when I fought Nightwing when I did that, and I can't fight her now because I don't have the DLC anymore because the PS3 that I had it broke, "Well just buy the DLC again" I am not going through all the hoops that Sony makes you to get stuff off the PS3 store now.
hey you're the guy from the live stream
@@imman217 ...What live stream? are you talking about one Clown's streams?
@@SirIsaacFortesque the one on April fools where he plays lego batman tbh i just wanted to say hi
@@SirIsaacFortesque and the star wars stream too
@@imman217 I see, it's no problem man, was just a little confused as I'm usually there for most of Clown's streams.
Great video! A lot of boss fights are hit or miss for me personally but I enjoy watching playthroughs of Arkham Boss Fights.
Idk is this counts as boss, but that final fight in Catwoman DLC with Riddler bots are the hardest fight i ever had in these series
Nightwing was too distracted by Harley Quinn's beauty to fight serious 8:20
I vaguely remember crying while fighting slade in origins before beating it
I was replaying origins and when I finished copper head she dissapeared after I was cured she vanished I had to to restart the fight
I think that the most hardest Bosses to beat was the TN-1 Bane fight from Arkham Origins mainly cause of the Horror like Music that plays throughout the Level,It almost felt like that you were in a Horror Movie.
Rick the door technician was one of the hardest boss fights in any game I’ve ever played.
I still haven’t beaten IATN solely because of the Bane Train. I cannot get past him (and I refuse to cheat it by exiting when my health is low)
For the Bane Train, yhitbox gets bigger when you dodge. Don't dodge. Just run out of the way.
@@samtinkle9076If you vault over enemies, you can't get hit until you land on the ground. If you just vault normally, then you can get hit.
But yeah, it's easier to run.
Tbh when I went through City trying to doing damageless on hard, the only reason I was able to beat Grundy is because there's checkpoints between phases. It would have been Hell getting hit at the end of phase 3 just to go all the way back to phase 1
You can always tell how easy/hard the developers thought their bosses were based on how much variety there was in the game over cut scenes.
Funnest part about bird is he makes venom in the comics
Ok, firstly, ouch my pride. I still have genuine trouble on the Origins Deathstroke boss even in NG+ and IATN,
Secondly; props for not including Electrocutioner. I thought for sure he or Hush would be number 1 for the easiest, and as someone who likes Electrocutioner from a story standpoint in Origins, I was fully prepared to roll my eyes and go "of course..."
I don't think Black Mask is armored in Arkham Origins, but on New Game + he has a cool shotgun that doesn't have any functionality in combat and results in him just standing awkwardly.
You know that you don't even have to neutralize the cobras if you show up with a full weapons generator or for me even without you can just go straight to him when he's alone and take him out without any threat because slade is stupid
When fighting freeze, you can make him come to you. After using the disruptor override and the line launcher, use those both again to lure freeze to you.
On my first playthrough of orgins i played it on hard mode and i wanted to do all the fights without getting hit once.
What if instead of just getting a cutscene at the end of Arkham knight we got a boss with scarecrow with Jason as a second person where you go in and out of the nightmare realm with Batman in the realm and Jason out of it. It would be soooooo much fun to play and it would be an introduction to play Jason.
The Bane Train is the bane of my existence.
4:31 You can blow up the bombs with the explosive gel?! WHAT?!!!
To add on the the black mask fight, if black mask shoots you, the bullets do no damage, I’m not kidding, I played the dlc on two different consoles so it’s clearly not a bug with my system
On the Deathstroke " boss " battle in Arkham Knight I used the CPU virus upgrade on a couple of cobra tanks and they attacked Deathstroke causing him to take all the damage all I had to do was fire a round from the batmobile's gun to finish him off making it easier than it already was
In my 12ys, Deathstroke was a nightmare. Now, with 18 years old, Deathstroke is really easy. The truly difficult one is Bane
In the situation of first playthrough didn't know about quick fire. I forgot you could slide even
Electrocutioner being as much of a Joke as he is makes sense in context. He's got a bad case of 'Big Fish, Small Pond.'
Most of the other assassins are either from Gotham(Croc, Deathshot, Firefly), have trained amongst the best in the world(Shiva, Deathstroke) or have studied up on Batman(Copperhead, Bane). Electrocutioner is an enforcer who's active in Eastern Europe, where there are basically no superheroes or supervillains active. He mostly deals with regular thugs and crooked cops. He's VERY good at that where he does that, hence his reputation, but in Gotham he's behind the curve. He also mainly relies on his Electro-Gloves(Batsuit can deal with most of that and easy enough to dodge), fear(useless against Batman or honestly most of his rogues gallery), and muscle(which is impressive against regular thugs, puny against people like Batman or Bane or Croc). He was way out of his league and never cut out for the job.
Honestly, I would be curious to see him fight, like, Year 1 Batman. Most versions of the Mytho's set Year 2 as when he really started to deal with Supervillains, the first batch of em like Joker and Ivy show up. Year 1 is mostly dealing with the mob familes like Thorne and Falcone and Batman isn't even usually confirmed to exist at that point. I could see Electrocutioner being used well as a sort of 'First Semi-Super Villain' for Batman to fight, have one of the mob families hire him to find out if The Bat is real and kill him. He could hold his own if Batman's only been doing his thing for like 3 months.
Granted, I did play Asylum and City first but I never struggled with the Deathstroke fight. It took a bit to get timing right but he simply didn’t do enough damage to be a threat. Don’t get me wrong, it’s still top 2 bosses in the series but I wish they beefed up the difficulty and put it later in the game so we could remember it for being harder
A trick I found for Freeze was to walk under a glass ceiling or near a ledge to lure him there with the footprints so he would be in position
The first time I played AO, I was nervous about fighting the bosses. I got a false sense of security kicking Electrocutioners teeth in, though I know it was a gimmick. Then you fight Deathstroke….it took me a while to beat him😂
During my latest Playthrough of Arkham Knight I tested to see if you could beat Deathstroke without battling any of the cobra tanks, and it was embarrassingly easy. I was expecting that all six would suddenly converge on my location to support their boss, but only one of them ever showed up and even then I was able to use street corners to evade it attacks for the most part.
I was never able to counter Deathstroke correctly. I had to create my own strategy, constantly Batclaw Slam him the last two thirds of the fight.
I remember the death stroke fight on Xbox 360.
And man 10 year old me went through it 😭
I stayed up till I was genuinely fatigued and was getting worse .
I fell asleep and no joke my dream that night was literally when it clicked I knew the strategy I needed to use .
First thing I did that morning was turn it on and no joke I beat him first try 😭
Core memory fs.
Say a prayer for my lungs after screaming during the Bane Origins fight.
watching this really made me question just how the hell I was able to finish origins when I was 7,I managed to die a lot against clayface and then I also managed to defeat deathstroke and bane
TN-1 bane was really hard for me. it made me super anxious first time I played arkham origins bc he would grab into vents, and after a certain amount of time, he would take you down in one hit. I never felt more terrified then doing the TN-1 bane fight
For me Death stroke (origins) fight was hard, no only because it was hard but because the first 5 tries i didn't understand what I had to do exactly, and then and it's not a joke, it was the night wing fight in Harley Quinn dlc, only because I couldn't charge maniac mode during the combat and because for some reason I always struggle with enemies with electric weapons, and the bane of origins wasn't that hard for me, it Only took me like 2 times
Bane's stealth section basically turns the game from action to horror
The “gimmick” (I think that’s the wrong term, there is a lot of intrinsic value in this fight) of the Deathstroke fight isn’t perfect countering or learning the counter system. It’s precision itself, especially in striking. Learning to not button mash. For instance, if you press the attack button even one more time than you need to, the game makes Deathstroke counter you. Same with parrying or anything else. Try it out, but record it. I love when a veteran tries something new.
That is one of funniest sponsor segments i have ever seen!😂😂😂
BABE WAKE UP A NEW CLOWNPUNCHER VIDEO DROPPED
The very first time I fought Freeze, I lost because I thought you kept having to use the disruptor to beat him. They gave you this gadget earlier in the game so I thought it was the simple solution to everything. Whenever I fought a boss in any video game, Zelda especially, the only solution to beating them is to use the item they’re weak to over and over again until they die. I started playing the Metal Gear Solid games earlier that year, and the bosses like the harrier jet and the metal gears themselves are only beaten by using the stinger missile against them. But Freeze completely shook that concept, because how was I supposed to know that using any item against him even once meant that was now useless.
the game literally tells you should vary your approach lol
I have died to deashot, and it was on my like 5th playthrough. I just rushed up and got shot. It was the first time that ever happened😅
I died twice to Deathstroke in Origins, so yeah I agree he's pretty strong for a new player like me.
Ill never forget how happy and proud i was when i defeated Hotel Bane in I am the night. And then lose my mind when i lost against Deadshot afterwards.
It never occurred to me that Freeze could be hit by line launcher. I thought it's too loud and slow.
June 2024, It's been ten years and five months since I started having nightmares about Bane Train
Actually, I would add another reason to leave the Catwoman/Two-Face fight as an Honorable Mention and that's because there's actually a RIDICULOUSLY cheesy way to beat it, if you're not too proud (which I NEVER am 😁). When Two-Face leaves the middle walkway and heads to the lookout by the entrance, you can lure pretty much all his goons to come looking for you on the opposite end the room, leaving him virtually unprotected. Once you've done that, sneak back over to the entrance and start attacking Two-Face. You can't stop him from calling for help, of course, but since it only takes three knockdowns to beat him, all you really need to do is just keep pounding away and you'll completely obliterate his health bar, triggering the victory cutscene before his crew can reach the other side of the room to gun you down.
Like I said...ridiculously cheesy. ^_^
what do you mean the electrocution is the hardest 27:59
Arkham Origins really showed us the best borh Bane and Deathstroke could offer
Too bad time wasn't as nice to Deathstroke as it was to Bane (boss fight wise)
For anyone struggling with origins Bane you can use the thugs as meat shields by doging on top of them.
At my top two the hardest fights in the Arkham series would be Bane from Arkham Origins the first time and the cloudburst
With bane, I just jump over enemies, always works with me whenever he tries to run me over.😂
Electrocutioner: Am I a joke to you?
I beat knight well over a dozen times, I’ve never thought to hack the cobra tanks.
Then again I only just recently found out you could run slide into grates to open them quicker, so I’m a slow learner
Arkham City's Mr. Freeze may not be the hardest In the series, but for me, he will ALWAYS be the scariest. That blue bald mf got me terrified as a kid, even more than Killer Croc In Asylum.
Bane used to be hard for me in origins but when I learned the running cheese it was easier.
Bro was speaking the truth about this being one of the hardest bosses if not the hardest boss for new players because I decided to use PS plus to pick up our origins. I got to this boss with barely any upgrades. The only reason after like 16 tries I beat this fight is because, I had a few upgrades in armor for close combat attacks and I had learned some of the timings. This was definitely a very big skill jump from everything I had faced before this boss fight but after 16 tries, I got everything on lock still nearly died though, but I was able to beat the fight 17:19
Currently watching this while doing the asylum trophies
