Can’t believe Skul was ambitious enough to crossover with Royal Rumble, honestly what a time to be alive. Edit: Taking heart of the aescetic while at 4 antique is a crime against humanity but we still love you Beelz Edit edit: The bug keeping you at more than half life doesn’t change a thing, taking the heart remains a mark upon your soul that shall endure throughout the ages.
To be fair, the unique version of Herc the jerk is called "The Ascetic", so that's either a hilarious coincidence or an intended thing. Either way, iconic 💅
I feel the problem with Heart of the Ascetic is genuinely a glitch from picking stuff up quickly. Either that or it genuinely is because the unique skull is called "The Ascetic" and as an easter egg they made it not deal damage
I already played a Herc run with the heart of the ascetic (and deceased heart, hilarious run) and I lost life regularly as intended. I can only imagine that the combination of heart+dark ability disease+ antique made the games code go "yeah whatever, you do you Beelzieboi" 😂
It's a glitch with picking up, dropping and re-picking an item, the same thing happens with the power skull hp axe, you lose the hp buff from it, same thing with heart, it's a dead item.
imagine you spend an enormous amount of time to achieve what you believe is the strongest form you can achieve, then get DOMINATED by a guy showing up and just grabbing you
I actually wouldn't mind seeing more "true hero" runs like this where you use two of the same skull at max to really showcase what the original creature/person could do
"Call the ambulance, but not for Grabby boi." Casually manhandles everyone and slams them without consent XD Funny chaotic run, 100% Beelz level quality 🤣never change man, never change.
Isn't the first form of the Herakles skull called "Ascetic"? It could possibly explain why the heart doesn't drain life, its *his* heart. EDIT: So I don't know exactly what happened but if it is the Herakles skull then the unique form doesn't have that property. This might need further testing.
I really want to see a run for each of the 5 new skuls where you get all the items made for them. Get to see them all in one place and how they synergize together.
Hercules is absolutely criminal with low cooldowns, and two of 'im is absolutely beautiful! It was nice seeing them mix in an upgraded Bone of Mana effect for that one, too! Definitely nice to see more Skul again, so I'm looking forward to what comes next! As always, though, best wishes to whoever's reading this, but make sure your bones are nice and moist at all times - it'd be quite terrible if they weren't (and this includes your teeth)!
gotta say, having this double same skull run is actually something I think will be really enjoyable another thing is for example, having all DLC Skulls and Their individual specific items locked and only the last 4 spaces for builds
The wheel face is back!!!!!! But honestly, I think my biggest issue with DM9/10 secret boss is that his damage is actually ridiculous. You can avoid him, but the literal one mistake can cost you so much health. One of speed form's attacks can do 93 damage, his power form's stun attack did literally 40+90 damage (no omens, using a power skull). I think the damage numbers are just incredibly out of whack. You could be breezing through DM10 with a good build, but one mistake against secret boss is just one life gone. It's dodgeable, for sure, but eventually one can make mistakes and get hit even once, and it just costs you so much. You literally have to play it perfectly in order to win, and it's only because at higher DM levels his damage is just too high, such that you can't afford to make mistakes. I love DM8-10 because the introduction of new enemies while changing enemy rooms was really cool, but the sheer damage numbers that enemies output just gets absurd. I at least got used to everyone doing dumb damage in DM10, but when the secret boss' basic combo does 40 total, that's just crazy. Don't get me wrong, I love the secret boss, but I think the best way to have fun is definitely gonna be DM8 or 9 against him, DM10 skyrockets his damage to simply too high to actually be enjoyable. I beat him like twice only on DM10 after watching you video on him, every other time I've died to one mistake and then destroys an entire life with a few hits.
One of the greatest things in the dlc is the witch upgrade in the end. It really makes you try different inscriptions and things like treasure are just insanely funny...
Good to see Heracles and his identical brother take on the hardest difficulty with ease. Been loving the super inscriptions outside of Brawl maybe breaking the Emperor fight
If we're doing themed runs, then you GOTTA do a Double King run now that we have two king skulls. Other options include (but are not limited to!): China Syndrome (Guan + Wukong) Live By the Blade (Spartacus + Sword skull) Die By the Blade (Spartacus + Samurai) Master and Commander (Guan + Soldier) HELL IN A CELL (Herc + Champ) Swedish Death Metal (Thor + Rockstar) You got a river of options!
Look closely at 34:30 Beelz has 357 max HP, the coddule take 500 dmg procs, and he gets 413 max. Thats 56 max hp increase not 80. Maybe heart of the asthetic buggs it, hence not losing max hp?
Bone, Treasure, Spoils, Masterwork, Artifact, Arms, Soar. We need to know! You know what i mean, You know what you need to do.... Leave every treasure chest on the ground.
Aaaall roight. The Ascetic with a lot of Life, I HAVE to try it. Two thoughts I've come up with. 1st: Against Dark Skul, do NOT clutter your screen with visual effects, you will lose sight of it and he will combo you. Trust me, I tried and died. Things like Lich's Deathtrap and Frosty's Ice Field or other will be an hindrance, if spammed. Go to the fight while having a plan: - get 1000% minimum on dmg - get chase or high movement speed (optional for some skulls) - get skills that have little area clutter - BE PATIENT. It is not a 100 meters, it is a marathon. 2nd: I think it is weird. When you fight Alexander after the Manatech God fight, you face an old and broken man with easy to telegraph attack and few hp. Well, if you let him alive for long enough you will discover that he has AN ENTIRE MOVESET of different attacks. Like webs of rays, pillars of darkness and half-screen wide explosions. Like, who is supposed to fight all of this after EVERYTHING else? I wonder if it is another secret fight you unlock by keeping him alive long enough, or maybe they gave it more attacks for when there is a Low damage High defense run. To be clear, I've cleared Diff 10 Dark Skul included. If you have done similar, please tell me more.
Pretty sure you dropped the heart before it drained your life to half, and that messed up the flags that say "keep draining life until you're at 50% life"
The game has become the absolute with the latest update! Now I’m waiting for skul online (or mods PLZZZ) to share the joy with someone (ofc I don’t have friends, anyway I’d be okay to complete the game with someone else) playing on a difficulty that scales depending on numbers of players in a session (like in monster Hunter) because double the fun!!! Cool vid btw. Cool Beelz. Everything’s cool.
Just seeing raw power from Hercules (The absolute) skull is a marvel to see every day, again i do hope they can give a choose your skull regardless of rarity after beating Alexander in the future
Maybe there's a Hidden interaction with Heart of the Ascetic and the Ascetic? Only guess I've got. But it would make sense if the heart is too powerful for other skulls, yet functions differently on Herc.
beelz any chance we can get a revenge leonitus/samurai run? think you will really enjoy upgraded revenge and you get to do your favorite things big parrys into BIG DAMAGE
Kinda curious what you could do on Base Skul with that Herc hand that stuns every 3 skill uses, stun inscriptions, and the curse that refreshes statuses.
I've been wanting to do a double buster run. Glad to see how beautiful it can be. It's like playing Marvel. Only you get to play the game and everyone else has to put down their controller.
The man wrestled and choked Nemean Lion to death (because the beast's hide was impervious to all kinds of weapon). He also overpowered the Amazoness Queen. Of course he's a wrestler ;)
I have no idea why the Heart of the Ascetic wasn't draining your life But my assumption is The damage reduction from 4 Antique makes the damage dealt by the Heart go low enough that it rounds down to 0, so the game doesn't register the HP drain.
What i think would be hype is being capable on looping runs so you can fight tankier and mightier enemies and taking more item slots for scaling juiceness
Sorry for the late comment, but which mods are you using to get the Herc skulls early? I really want to get those mods since I'd love to access all the uniques from the start
LegendaryStart is the one you want. Mr Bacanudo has made most of the mods I'm using including ones for Quintessence at the start and rerolling skills at the start. AwakeOnCastle lets you upgrade before starting a run.
I’m going to throw out a wild guess here and say that the damage resist from max antique is somehow negating the health drain from heart of the ascetic I tried paying attention to your health to see if it would start drain when you went below 70% but I don’t think it happened a single time since you took heart of the ascetic so there’s no evidence to prove or disprove the theory Also I really like Heracles bringing out the wheel because it’s a bit reminiscent of bringing a folding chair into the wring and I find it thematically pleasing
Seeing Skul turn into WWE is certainly a spectical to behold, you have become the creme of the crop. Though there are a few things I'm curious about not, mainly the super inscriptions of sin, masterpiece, and omen.
Random question, during hero’s last form when he’s about to die, a round thing with hp pops up. What does it do exactly? Not sure if i should destroy it or keep killing the boss.
It periodically pulses a big ring attack that hurts you. So either avoid the ring it shoots out (while still avoiding dads attacks), and kill him quickly. Or burst it down so you don't get overwhelmed. Depends on how close to dead the hero is.
I feel I'd be terrifying if "shadow skul"(?) Had a mechanic where he basically copies the players build to an extent like your using a speed skull well now he's using the speed skul moveset in his fight or even worse more literally copies your build using a exact copy of your items against him
Sounds like you need to make a whole video dedicated to finding odd bugs / quirks / interactions with the dark abilities . Starting with heart and disease
Can’t believe Skul was ambitious enough to crossover with Royal Rumble, honestly what a time to be alive.

Good confirmation that he's not just immune to it baseline. Must be the effects together
It's a glitch with picking up, dropping and re-picking an item, the same thing happens with the power skull hp axe, you lose the hp buff from it, same thing with heart, it's a dead item.
Skul players finally get to feel the enjoyment from landing a command grab in a fighting game
imagine you spend an enormous amount of time to achieve what you believe is the strongest form you can achieve, then get DOMINATED by a guy showing up and just grabbing you
Then don't imagine it....

@@crustybomb115 I tested this real quick and if it is the case it doesn't apply to the unique version of the skull.
But he took dmg when he first took it
@@LobsterEmbodiment thats the confusing part... wtf is going on???
26:23 Heart has a bug where when you drop it on the ground and pick it up again it stops draining hp Permanently

*Sees Hercules with the 2 hand equipment* me: are you ready for the main man brother.
Hiya beelz
Beelz last video: Learning boss pattern
Beelz this video: Unga Bunga it is!!!
Never thought I would see you enjoy a power skull this much.
Good to see you having so much fun. :)
53:05 Oh wow, Herc really _can_ manhandle ghosts!
No one ever expects The Big Grabby Boy and the Wheelz of Beelz.
The Hands. They grab, they throw, and they’re grabbing more.
He fears no man, no beast, no evil, brother..... the Herc is back to bring more hurt and he's slamming people left and right
One of the greatest things in the dlc is the witch upgrade in the end. It really makes you try different inscriptions and things like treasure are just insanely funny...
Skul uses Seismic Toss...It's Super Effective! xD
It flinched!
Good to see Heracles and his identical brother take on the hardest difficulty with ease. Been loving the super inscriptions outside of Brawl maybe breaking the Emperor fight
28:02 i had this happen to me on a tree run, except my game crashed and when I opened it back up it fixed itself
That intro is just pure 100% *PTSD* for the enemy
“Yes Heracles is my favorite new skull. How could you tell?”
If we're doing themed runs, then you GOTTA do a Double King run now that we have two king skulls. Other options include (but are not limited to!):
China Syndrome (Guan + Wukong)
Live By the Blade (Spartacus + Sword skull)
Die By the Blade (Spartacus + Samurai)

Swedish Death Metal (Thor + Rockstar)
You got a river of options!

Maybe heart of the asthetic buggs it, hence not losing max hp?
Ok nvm, that's just Infectious disease
That damn disease messed up so much math in this run I was convinced I'd gone mad.
You and me both!
Bone, Treasure, Spoils, Masterwork, Artifact, Arms, Soar. We need to know! You know what i mean, You know what you need to do....
Leave every treasure chest on the ground.
Here comes Hurcules from the top ropes
I think Herc's unique Invulnerability interrupted the HP drain from the Heart, and just stopped it from working entirely.
When I played with herc he was so fun. Definitely top 5 most fun skulls
"Have you seen this!!!?" or "OOooh you running from me!? you running from me!!!" XD!!
This entire video I had the space jam theme playing in the backgrounds and, well, it really fits.
Very much "Come here! LETS TALK!" energy.
Edit: The Dark Skul fight with slams was far too funny!
(1:04:04) bro sounds like Cleveland Brown.

This looks like so much fun. Still waiting on the console release. Glad your still having a blast my friend.
No hit run? Mmm, not a good idea.
Parry only run? Now we're talkin'
A beelz out of context would be hilarious 😂
0:41How did you get 2 identical skulls? Is it something obtained by beating the game on the highest difficulty level of Dark Mirror?
mods
I would rly like to know what you get for from "upgraded omen"
How you forgot about the -30% max health the entire run till the end had me rolling 😂
You right! I forgot😅

best skul from dlc
Hercules. The most braindead mind off unga bunga go brrrrrrrr. Skul in this entire game
Kinda curious what you could do on Base Skul with that Herc hand that stuns every 3 skill uses, stun inscriptions, and the curse that refreshes statuses.
Beelz, you could do a run with each of the new skuls with their own itens
I've been wanting to do a double buster run. Glad to see how beautiful it can be.
It's like playing Marvel. Only you get to play the game and everyone else has to put down their controller.
I like the idea that Heracles in the skul universe is a wrestler.
The man wrestled and choked Nemean Lion to death (because the beast's hide was impervious to all kinds of weapon). He also overpowered the Amazoness Queen.
Of course he's a wrestler ;)
@@spearsageAnd also a big earth dude. Yeah he was absolutely a wrestler!
Beelz: "There is no difficulty higher than 9" "difficulty 9 absolute hardest difficulty in the game"
Difficulty 10: "am I a joke to you?"
Step 1: Grab
Step 2: Grab?
Step 3: Grabe!?
Step 4: cry

Mom, dad, can I sleep with you? I'm afraid of Heracles and Heracles, the rumbling twins.
I have no idea why the Heart of the Ascetic wasn't draining your life
But my assumption is
The damage reduction from 4 Antique makes the damage dealt by the Heart go low enough that it rounds down to 0, so the game doesn't register the HP drain.
The Olive Tree Cudgel is his weapon he pulls out from under the ring. Cudgel just on stand-by.
Also chimera went to suplex city 36:09-36:24

Skul: Fight Club DLC
I just beat dark skul at difficulty 7. It was a powerful dash build with pike and I almost died. Apparently near constant s doesn't guarantee a win.
Now that you can evolve inscriptions, what would an evolved sun and moon inscription be, and would it change if it’s just sun and sun and vice versa
I haven't seen a beatdown like this since the crucifixion of Paul Hererra by Gary Goodridge.
I can’t even tell anymore if beelz just doesn’t realise something or he’s just trolling us
Carleon wasnt ready for these hands.
The obligatory: These hands are rated E for everyone!
Sounds like you need to make a whole video dedicated to finding odd bugs / quirks / interactions with the dark abilities . Starting with heart and disease

IS THAT THE BUG OF THE ASCETIC?!
Man what is this all slamy slamies 🤩🤩
Ghost problems?
Nah. Don't call the Ghostbusters.
Dial up my boy Herakles. He's from Jersey.
We need a new Skulls tier list!!! Pls Beelz
about the Heart of the Ascetic, maybe a bug because the mods or the curse (life reduction)
HA! I called it in one of Haxa's videos. The Heart of the Ascetic IS the Heart of Heracles!
Bro's neighbors have got to be like this dude is insane 😂😂😂
They recently built a new garage between their house and mine. They think they can stop me?!
@Beelz55 how do you not have a million subs? 😂 here have one from me
Because unique Herc is the Ascetic the game likes the Herc line and decided to give you +150
Seeing herc and last night playing as predator, predator needs eye frames bc his attacks are so vulnerable and have a big window.. it's a definite
... Love Space Jam, what a good movie o7
Since Heracles can grab people so good, doesn't he also have a maxed out dex build😂
Probably bug from the 30% less HP cursed upgrade
And then re-picked the HEART OF THE ASCETIC
Ok, so all of these slams seemed to have revealed Lunatic Beelz... or is this normal Beelz that we don't see as often on the TH-cams?
