Fun fact: beefy enemies are only able to grab you if they get hit by an attack that would knock a regular enemy over. The grab ability also gets reset if they grab you, or if they play the idle animation. Funnily enough blue knight's magic doesn't actually flinch the beefies, which worked out well here lol
That’s actually insane, I wish I knew that before finishing the video. That makes it even crazier that I happened to start with ice knight and it just happened to work out that way. Is that common knowledge? I did so much research on the wiki for that boss fight I must have missed it being right in front of me somewhere
One thing I learnt after many challenge runs is the block button can actually block most boss attacks, for example, almost every attack from the catfish can be blocked
I see many people make the mistake of trying to avoid the catfish's attacks when trying to hit the cannonball, instead hold block at the front of the boat for no damage and a guaranteed hit
This made me want to do more insane necromancer no hit attempts and I managed to do it within 47 minutes of attempts with Blue Knight. I'd say that Blue Knight is probably the easiest character to do it with since you can set up a beefy juggle easier with freezing. I used a strategy which involves killing the Conehead on the first wave in a very specific way. This makes the Beefy Bear on the 2nd wave to move in a straight line after spawning. This gave me a better opportunity to have a good lightweight juggle in the 2nd wave. I manage to kill the Saracen, Alien, and Fencer in a lightweight juggle at the beginning. Once I finished my lightweight juggle, I freeze the Beefy Bear and use a sandwich for a beefy juggle. There is a chance that the Beefy Barbarian also stands next to me before I start the juggle (which happened in this run), leading to an easy kill on both lightweight beefies in one juggle. Once both lightweight beefies are dead, I can somewhat safely kill the Royal Guard with a beefy juggle. In this run, I accidentally get in a wrestle with the Brute which should've caused me to get hit, but since I did the propeller attack in the air and got into the wrestle on the ground before the propeller attack ended, it allowed me to dodge some attacks after the wrestle that would've hit me normally. In this run, I kill both the Royal Guard and Conehead with a beefy juggle at the same time which was lucky. After the heavyweights are dead, just play normally while staying cautious with the Brute if he is flinched. I use freezing to make it as safe as possible to start juggles. You want to make sure that the last enemy alive except for the Brute is an enemy that spawns earlier than the Brute. This is so that you can prepare for the Brute becoming a chaser easier. In this run, I manage to keep the Iceskimo alive last making it easy to predict when the Brute will become a chaser. Once the Brute is chasing, I freeze him with a projectile and do the infinite elemental infusion combo on him. You ideally don't want any other enemies alive during this since when they die, they can unexpectedly hit the Brute and unfreeze him, making you vulnerable to get hit. Once you kill everyone, you want to get the Necromancer in a lightweight juggle while he is falling if you can. You do not want to hit the Necromancer immediately after he starts falling, since he can block your attacks for a short duration after beginning his fall.
This is why you’re the king of this game, so much of that is over my head I’m glad the normal mode method I got going didn’t end up being this convoluted. Your method would definitely make an interesting video if you felt like making one explaining everything. Cool to see u comment, I binged ur channel while making this video ur stuff is so sick. Crazy how much you’ve found in this game
Him not blocking on the catfish and other bosses hurt to watch since I've played the bosses so many times :P And special recognition because this Is so true and annoying, especially in insane mode: 3:24 😂
Some tips for you.The bomb throwing enemies are not "random" as you say. Only one enemy per screen will be able to throw bombs, and this will change when they are killed. You can figure out who is throwing bombs by looking at the enemy who is moving slower than the rest of the enemies, and moves slightly diagonally up. I'd avoid juggling the enemies until you find out who the bomber is so you don't get knocked out of the combo by a bomb. Also, i'm pretty sure for the conehead boss you can just heavyweight juggle him (XXXrY or 3 light attack 1 magic heavy) using ice knight. This will also work for the level after the wedding. For the lava dragon level, you can use mediumweight juggles on the demons. (XXYY XYY XYY XY XY XY or 2 light, 2 heavy, 1 light, 2 heavy, 1 light, 2 heavy, 1 light, 1 heavy, 1 light, 1 heavy, 1 light, 1 heavy). For Necromancer, my only real suggestion is to go red knight for the lightning heavy magic. I'd recommend using the lightweight infinite combo to kill all of the lightweights in the first wave, and then move on to the fire demon. After both are dead you can kill the heavyweight. For the second wave I suggest killing the beefies first by getting them into a lightning stunlock. Use heavyweight combo on necromancer as usual, but be careful of his magic and keep in mind that they are the only enemy that can block. (Just remembered this, but for a heavyweight combo, instead of rY, you can just use a drill combo.)
You can cheese the bat boss by sitting in the corner with the shield and hitting him between licks. Also if you do this, he will never fly up during the fight or summon bats.
I am so happy to see people play this game after years This is one of my favorite video games of all time I miss the good old day to play it with my friends :(
Barbarian Boss: you can block his punches and his spikes when he blocks. Catfish: if your in front of the boat you can block his punches and do a quick attack, for his charge and his slams, just move. The Bat: you can block his licking attacks and air combo him to death. Volcano mini boss: farm up to 9 sandwiches from the sandwich door before taking on this boss and air smack him and when the sandwich ability is done is another one in the air. Dragon and sock puppet: you can stand at the high point before the sock puppet can hit you and use light magic to hit him or the bow if you have high enough points. Undead Cyclops: all his attacks can be blocked except his pogo attack.
Now do it on insane mode lmao Also blue knight has a true infinite stun lock with his sword magic. Just repeat light, light, light, heavy and everything you hit won't be able to get out of the combo if you do it right
@@DjYale btw, I do a lot of work on my own channel, and I can tell you right now that you have a ton of potential to do well on TH-cam. Best of luck to you man
i just bought the blue knight plushie you showed in a video as a joke. it looked so funny i had to buy it. oh i also bought the pack of four coming with all 4 starter knights. i just wanted to thank u for an entertaining video and a hilarious new plushie for me.
Damn, what a vid, congratulations on completing this stress inducing run! I also wanted to add a quick tip on a catfish boss fight, since i didn't see you do it: when the boss zooms across the lake - you can make it ram into kings ship, stunning it, might come in handy.
Hint 1: When Medusa is a hopeless stone statue, you can attack her while she is petrified herself and it will break her apart leaving behind a new weapon. Hint 2: After defeating the Dark Wizard, he drops his sword in pain which you can grab before the land breaks!
amazing, well put together video! I'm glad there's still content on Castle Crashers being made, I would love to see you try out Alien Hominid Invasion!!
I think you should have used the run and heavy combo more often for certain bosses because some of em like corn freeze king are alot easier to do and it gives alot of speed and hits multiple times
X X X Y Y combo to obliterate most bosses or just use Industrialist/Fencer X X X Y to infinitely freeze an enemy while using an ice character X X Y Y to do a light-weight juggle
Please do a video on Kingdom Come: Deliverance, it's my favorite game and I think you'll love it. It's also on sale right now it'll make some great content. Great video btw I'm subscribing!
@@DjYale Alright then Your complaining has made me consider upping the ante. Now do it with no glitches while using Green Knight (no stat upgrades either)
Yea the guy who did it before me used it a bunch but I couldn’t find a good use for it with my method, plus adding another input to keep track of woulda fried my brain
It’s always nice to come back to castle crashers it was a big thing in my childhood even alien hominid I can’t wait for alien hominid invasion release on nov 1 coming for steam , switch , ps5 , Xbox series x and more
IN THE CAT FISH YOU CAN JUST STAND AND SHEALD in front of the boat IT bolcks all of his atacks but his swiming attack and it makes the canon ball's hit
Fun thing is that in 2019 when I was 12 i beat Castle Crashers and now I'm trying to do it again and i have no idea how to beat necromancer, he's literally unplayable and impossible to defeat on the first attempt...
