I WAS SO NERVOUS WHEN HE WAS STANDING IN THAT LAVA LIKE IT WAS NOTHING. I thought he was going to die there, but lava disappeared and mushrom bro clutched quelaag with a critical bitch slap to her spider head.
i knew what to expect going in from the time i got caught between 3 or 4 lava piles and was infinitely chained to death, so once i saw his predicament i thought it might be over but he pulled through like a real champ
Don't be surprised if quelaag won several times and he kept replaying the fight until the mushroom won. Don't be surprised if other fights were replayed until he got the outcome he wanted.
Imagining Mushroom as an Anime Protagonist. He punches so incredibly slow that the villain thinks it's a joke, doesn't take it seriously and stands in the way of the punch that literally takes 2 minutes to connect. Little does he know that punch has the force equivalent of a Moon crashing into the surface of his face.
I guess for Moonlight Butterfly if he could tank the first round of magic and got a hit in while it was landing for the AOE it would probably one shot it
Damn Quelaag really held her own for being an early boss. Centipede only won because of range and the lava lake. O&S won because 2v1. She legit did better than everyone else in the base game. Kinda surprised lol.
Queelag is actually a major step up from other bosses at this point, it's a bit ridiculous how much more health she has than other early/midgame bosses, adding to that her solid dps and the lava pools she can really be scary especially for AI's.
Really though, it's simply because AI controlled enemies tend to ignore or not be able to handle damage zones. You can see this even in later games where there are AI controlled companions/enemies and they just walk through spots that do tons of damage to them and just act like there's nothing wrong and die. I knew Quelaag would be one of the only bosses to stand a chance. Centipede would probably have lost if it was in an area that didn't insta-kill the shroom since it'd probably do a jumping attack at some point. O&S won simply because O went down first, if S went down first O would have more range, but focused on a smaller point. S won because all of his attacks pushed the shroom back, O would likely have missed his hits on the shroom allowing for the shroom to hit him. Nito almost won, and probably could more often than not, simply due to having all the adds. But absolutely, Quelaag is a pretty strong early boss.
This is already the heavily buffed Gravelord phantom. And we don't know for Manus, since some of Manus's spells are very good against things that can't dodge. He also couldn't do shit against Centipede Demon
I love to imagine that the mushrooms all pissed it's there. And when it kills something and nonchalantly walks back it's just saying: *"Wastin' mah time!*
Gotta love how Seath in the lore is like "I have found the key to immortality through uncountable years of research in arcane magic, and finally... I have finally mastered the power of my ancestors and became not only an immortal dragon, but the last and only one" And then a mushroom just goes like "wanna meet a friend of mine? His name's MY FIST RIGHT IN YOUR F*CKING MOUTH" and wins
Gwynn at his strongest wouldn’t dare face this mushroom. If it were up to the mushroom, the age of darkness wouldn’t ever begin, but the age of fungus would be eternal
Gwyn at his strongest would obliterate that mushroom. The Gwyn you fight at the end of the game is weak. He bequeathed most of his power to the Gods and sacrificed his life to link the First Flame. The Gwyn you face is a husk, a "hollow" who has lost all sentience and intelligence. He can't even throw his Sunlight Spears anymore, which were capable of one-shotting ancient dragons like Kalameet.
As someone who has only played DS2 and DS3, I am sad, yet relieved, to have never experienced to glory of mushroom punch first hand. (Still messed up that the only time you see them in sequels is a dead one in the poison swamp in DS3 :/)
It's a rite of passage for every DS1 player to notice a big version of the tiny mushroom people, try to kill it, and then get tricked by the long wind up into taking a fungus to the chin.
Mushroom: Oh you're approaching me? Instead of running away you decide to come closer? Bosses: We can't beat the shit out of you without coming closer. Mushrom: Oh-ho! Then come as close as you like!
My headcanon is that he’s trying to get his little mushroom kids back a la Liam Neeson in Taken. I want this video stitched into a movie trailer. “This summer, no more Mr. Fungi. They took his kids, he took revenge. This mycelium will send them to the mausoleum. Don’t miss this summer’s biggest blockbuster, starring Red Mushroom as Redcap.”
So many great moments in this video, the way it backs Sif up against the door, throwing lazy punches. It finishing Nito with 69 health left. The way it patiently waits at its start point in the abyss for the Four Kings to show up 😂
The way it was completely unfazed by a gigantic multi ton iron golem was really intimidating. Didn't even notice it until that shockwave alerted the mushroom that something was there.
I like the thought of all these bosses just running at red mushroom, and then our boy just goes "So you have chosen, Death" when the boss enters his agro range
Man the mushroom makes look so easy for each and every of the boss fights like the ones we used to struggle with in the very first play through. Swish cheese!
yess angry mushroom, centipede demon fought really well he was like "oh no, im not getting close to that sh1t". great video Some interesting enemies to pit against bosses: -Moonlight butterfly -Maneater mildred -Golden crystal golem -Havel -Skeletal wheel -Titanite Demon -Black phantom dark knight -Black phantom assasins -Black phantom capra -Black phantom stone golem -Black phantom chained prisoner vs angry mushroom -Mass of flesh -Izalith pyromancer
I wanted to do Titanite Demon vs Bosses, but his AI just doesn't want to work anywhere else. Moonlight butterfly causes a lot of lag. Some of those others will be interesting.
@@Pantagana maybe moving enemies to their arena could work(ranged ones for M.B) as for titanite Demon i'm just guessing but his ia is probably set to attack player only, try comparing a simple enemy IA with that of titanite demon and look for the script that causes the attack motion but make a backup before in case of corrupted IA; i am not familiar with dark soul script so i am not certain heh anyways thanks for the videos mate today the cereal tasted better.
Moonlight Butterfly is a GIANT shitshow for stuff like this. Most bosses' AI either breaks because of the arena/they can't reach Butterfly... or they jump off the bridge and sit there in a pit forever because LOL THE KILLPLANE DOESN'T WORK
Always remember first playthrough with a friend coming across one of these guys, “aww he seems nice - wait. It’s got blood on it’s hands!” *smash* , dead. So funny, still makes me smile.
I really believe Quelagg actually might have the most variance with the fights. Speed is what seems to be the thing that gives the bosses a chance and considering how much she jumps around and has ranged attacks, I bet she can win a couple of match ups. I feel like the demon firesage and Sif also has instances of where it can win as well because of their mobility and ranged attacks.
That's true, as Artorias has the most speed out of them all, not a lot of variance but a good amount, and our boy nearly punched his other arm into oblivion.
There is a reason why the abyss stayed in Oolacile, those mushrooms live right outside it and they do not take kindly to intruders.

It’s more about stamina management
Both Queelag and Nito seemed to have it in the bag, but they didn't respect their distance and tried to take on the absolute unit in melee combat. A fatal mistake indeed.
Smough and Artorias knew to respect that distance.
The Mushroom Parent is so damn powerful that it defeated the Four Kings by killing only Three Kings with nothing but its fists.

Let's all be honest, the mushrooms are the real ones who wiped out the ancient dragons.
Sorry, but Kalameet killed him easily.
@@lierveyblackway6092Sure, but that was just one. If there was two it would have all been over. A whole village of these godkilling Chungus’s would defeat anything.
Imagine mushroom casually walking around bed of chaos, only for floor underneath it to collapse and fall to it's death... Every damn time
"Can you feel your heart burning? Can you feel the struggle within? The fear within me is beyond any your soul can make, you cannot kill me in a way that matters." -Grave lord Mushroom parent

I love how when Ornstein stabs it in the back, the mushroom just turns like "Bro seriously?"

The Red Mushroom and the Red Chained Prisoner should duel.
Prisoner might clutch out because of his aggressive AI (or dps)
@@Red41554 Prisoner got shit on.
They did. Mushroom won. Very quickly.
Holy crap. I didn't know the prisoner could be red
@@jonnyblade3234 Gravelord Chained Prisoner is horrifying. Do anything wrong and you're instantly dead.
9:15 Nito: _I am Gravelord Nito, lord of death. Prepare to meet your God._
Mushroom: "I am Big Chungus, lord of the Fungus. You cannot kill me in any meaningful way."
Nito: _panicked screaming_
Do you feel your heart burning? Do you feel the struggle within?
Can you imagine how deadly this murshoom would be if it had speed matching its strenght !?
The freaking fight with Quelaag was so intense! How isn't anyone talking about it??? I gave up on the poor buddy and didn't expect the outcome!
I was really rooting for Spider-waifu (does whatever spider or waifu can)
I WAS SO NERVOUS WHEN HE WAS STANDING IN THAT LAVA LIKE IT WAS NOTHING. I thought he was going to die there, but lava disappeared and mushrom bro clutched quelaag with a critical bitch slap to her spider head.
i knew what to expect going in from the time i got caught between 3 or 4 lava piles and was infinitely chained to death, so once i saw his predicament i thought it might be over but he pulled through like a real champ
Intense is not the word that came to my mind, but sure
Don't be surprised if quelaag won several times and he kept replaying the fight until the mushroom won. Don't be surprised if other fights were replayed until he got the outcome he wanted.
I have no idea why I got this recommended years later but this is the best thing i’ve ever seen in soulsborne history.
Imagining Mushroom as an Anime Protagonist. He punches so incredibly slow that the villain thinks it's a joke, doesn't take it seriously and stands in the way of the punch that literally takes 2 minutes to connect.
Little does he know that punch has the force equivalent of a Moon crashing into the surface of his face.
One punch man but slow

Bosses Missing: Moonlight Butterfly, the other Asylum Demon, Bed of Chaos, Gwyndolin, Priscilla, ceaseless discharge
My 1st though when watching this was how hard he'd fair with Bed of Chaos and also I thought he'd struggle with Pinwheel.
I guess for Moonlight Butterfly if he could tank the first round of magic and got a hit in while it was landing for the AOE it would probably one shot it
Also Gwyndolin and Priscilla are missing
@@FeliZeppeli Gwyndolin is probably his perfekt antidote
No way he would get a hit in
Why no one remembers ceasless discharge, my poor boi is just a nice brother😭
really love how they designed the mushroom with its hat tilted like he's a tough in some old-timey tom & jerry cartoon
Damn Quelaag really held her own for being an early boss. Centipede only won because of range and the lava lake. O&S won because 2v1. She legit did better than everyone else in the base game. Kinda surprised lol.
Queelag is actually a major step up from other bosses at this point, it's a bit ridiculous how much more health she has than other early/midgame bosses, adding to that her solid dps and the lava pools she can really be scary especially for AI's.
Really though, it's simply because AI controlled enemies tend to ignore or not be able to handle damage zones. You can see this even in later games where there are AI controlled companions/enemies and they just walk through spots that do tons of damage to them and just act like there's nothing wrong and die. I knew Quelaag would be one of the only bosses to stand a chance. Centipede would probably have lost if it was in an area that didn't insta-kill the shroom since it'd probably do a jumping attack at some point. O&S won simply because O went down first, if S went down first O would have more range, but focused on a smaller point. S won because all of his attacks pushed the shroom back, O would likely have missed his hits on the shroom allowing for the shroom to hit him. Nito almost won, and probably could more often than not, simply due to having all the adds.
But absolutely, Quelaag is a pretty strong early boss.
Im not sure how to feel knowing a mushroom is extremely better at Dark Souls than me.
He ain't better he's just... stronger
he just chillin and punching omg. mushroom is strongest boss
He was just built different
@ I guess you didn't see what Kalameet did to it.
Zweihander is the only secret weakness of this unsung mushroon hero
I was so invested in this that I stopped everything I was doing just to watch mushroom boy's quest
Bro that centipede fight wasn’t even fair mushroom just stood there and ate those hits to the end 😢
Other fights: lava kills the opponent of centipede
Red Mushroom : dies trying to reach the lava
The second I saw him take 1200 damage in one swing I knew he was as good as toast
Centipede Demon was trying to stop him from getting in the lava lmao
@@yamcha9791 was too scared to feel the fungal fist of fury
Centipede demon: casually wrecks the loser without taking any damage and then just walks away
This manshroom just calmly walked through lava when fighting Queelag... He's got some fungballs for sure
And the Gargoyle fire breath too
0:01 Ho! So instead of running you are approaching me...
So basically if you gave him the same HP as Manus, he could beat everything except Kalameet.
This is already the heavily buffed Gravelord phantom. And we don't know for Manus, since some of Manus's spells are very good against things that can't dodge. He also couldn't do shit against Centipede Demon
He didn't get all of them and some of them were close calls
And the centipede, unless you have mushroom the lava ring
14:13 What was that?! I’ve never seen Sanctuary Guardian do that before! Style points for that triple back flip tho!
He does that if you use a shield, it can't be blocked
I've never seen that before either. I guess because I probably never try to use a shield against him. Damn that was cool though!
Very common move of his, though I hardly see it since I usually manage to 3 shot him
Those kinds of animations happen if your poise holds up against his attacks, it causes them to recoil.
@@MystralThunder In other words tanks shroom
This journey of a brave mushroom made my day, thank you ❤
I love his casual, calm and relaxed walk into the most deadly enemies in the game like its just a walk to a wallmart for milk 😂😂😂
Right? It's not menacing, it's not cocky, it's just going for a casual stroll.
Bro is that guy
mushroom vs guardian is essentially strength vs dex
Player:uses 15+ weapons with scaling
Mushroom:deez hands
I love to imagine that the mushrooms all pissed it's there. And when it kills something and nonchalantly walks back it's just saying: *"Wastin' mah time!*
I was thinking, what if Gwyn pissed off the Forest Covenant and the Mushroom People?
Stanley from the office vibes lmao
@@KyeEnzoden he will dead, mushrooms is gods of dark souls world
Gotta love how Seath in the lore is like "I have found the key to immortality through uncountable years of research in arcane magic, and finally... I have finally mastered the power of my ancestors and became not only an immortal dragon, but the last and only one"
And then a mushroom just goes like "wanna meet a friend of mine? His name's MY FIST RIGHT IN YOUR F*CKING MOUTH"
and wins
"Wow, after all that research and hard work you must be hungry... how's a knuckle sandwich sound"
Even better, he gets punched in the crotch.
Right in your cloaca
"WTF WAS THAT DAMAGE MY GUY?!"
~The bosses, probably
Lmao best crossover
It feels like we're traveling with the mushroom man Through his dark souls experience
Gwynn at his strongest wouldn’t dare face this mushroom. If it were up to the mushroom, the age of darkness wouldn’t ever begin, but the age of fungus would be eternal
Gwyn at his strongest would obliterate that mushroom. The Gwyn you fight at the end of the game is weak. He bequeathed most of his power to the Gods and sacrificed his life to link the First Flame. The Gwyn you face is a husk, a "hollow" who has lost all sentience and intelligence. He can't even throw his Sunlight Spears anymore, which were capable of one-shotting ancient dragons like Kalameet.

Gwyn: "B-but they all they said you were a fun guy...a fun...guy...o-oh..."
With four kings, I love how he kills the first king then turn to the camera
"You wanna see me do it again?"
The little splash noises he makes as he chunks an ungodly amount of health away from these behemoth bosses is peak entertainment
Watching him defeat gwyn made me realize that the red mushroom was the true final boss all along
I love how artorias just dances after defeating mushroom
*artorias: I have completed my mission and that is defeating the mushroom*
When that red shroom just one-slapped the asylum demon I just lost it. What a fun guy.
This mushroom just woke up and decided to choose violence against everyone.
1:04 He punched that gargoyle so hard that his friend felt it and came out with half-health lmao
This is One of the most amazing DS 1 Videos i ve ever seen. And Funny. I Love how he Slowly Boss Walks away after he beat the Bosses.
As someone who has only played DS2 and DS3, I am sad, yet relieved, to have never experienced to glory of mushroom punch first hand.
(Still messed up that the only time you see them in sequels is a dead one in the poison swamp in DS3 :/)
It's a rite of passage for every DS1 player to notice a big version of the tiny mushroom people, try to kill it, and then get tricked by the long wind up into taking a fungus to the chin.
Mushroom: Oh you're approaching me? Instead of running away you decide to come closer?
Bosses: We can't beat the shit out of you without coming closer.
Mushrom: Oh-ho! Then come as close as you like!
My thoughts exactly lol
Id invert that.
the mushroom is generally the one approaching and beating the shit out of bosses.
This mushroom has an intimidating aura the way he just walks up and takes hits without flinching.
Red Mushroom's only weakness is his own lack of motivation
My headcanon is that he’s trying to get his little mushroom kids back a la Liam Neeson in Taken.
I want this video stitched into a movie trailer.
“This summer, no more Mr. Fungi.
They took his kids, he took revenge. This mycelium will send them to the mausoleum. Don’t miss this summer’s biggest blockbuster, starring Red Mushroom as
Redcap.”
"He was just standing there... menacingly... well, until he just one hitted the shit outta me..."
-basically all the early game bosses
So many great moments in this video, the way it backs Sif up against the door, throwing lazy punches. It finishing Nito with 69 health left. The way it patiently waits at its start point in the abyss for the Four Kings to show up 😂
The way it was completely unfazed by a gigantic multi ton iron golem was really intimidating. Didn't even notice it until that shockwave alerted the mushroom that something was there.
I like the thought of all these bosses just running at red mushroom, and then our boy just goes "So you have chosen, Death" when the boss enters his agro range
The way he turns to Ornstein, goes up to him and slaps him into oblivion.
Man the mushroom makes look so easy for each and every of the boss fights like the ones we used to struggle with in the very first play through. Swish cheese!
Poise bois are unbeatable in ds1
Helps that he has almost 5k hp
*Swiss cheese
yess angry mushroom, centipede demon fought really well he was like "oh no, im not getting close to that sh1t". great video
Some interesting enemies to pit against bosses:
-Moonlight butterfly
-Maneater mildred
-Golden crystal golem
-Havel
-Skeletal wheel
-Titanite Demon
-Black phantom dark knight
-Black phantom assasins
-Black phantom capra
-Black phantom stone golem
-Black phantom chained prisoner vs angry mushroom
-Mass of flesh
-Izalith pyromancer
I wanted to do Titanite Demon vs Bosses, but his AI just doesn't want to work anywhere else. Moonlight butterfly causes a lot of lag. Some of those others will be interesting.
@@Pantagana maybe moving enemies to their arena could work(ranged ones for M.B) as for titanite Demon i'm just guessing but his ia is probably set to attack player only, try comparing a simple enemy IA with that of titanite demon and look for the script that causes the attack motion but make a backup before in case of corrupted IA; i am not familiar with dark soul script so i am not certain heh anyways thanks for the videos mate today the cereal tasted better.
And god king Andre
Moonlight Butterfly is a GIANT shitshow for stuff like this. Most bosses' AI either breaks because of the arena/they can't reach Butterfly... or they jump off the bridge and sit there in a pit forever because LOL THE KILLPLANE DOESN'T WORK
Always remember first playthrough with a friend coming across one of these guys, “aww he seems nice - wait. It’s got blood on it’s hands!” *smash* , dead. So funny, still makes me smile.
I really believe Quelagg actually might have the most variance with the fights. Speed is what seems to be the thing that gives the bosses a chance and considering how much she jumps around and has ranged attacks, I bet she can win a couple of match ups. I feel like the demon firesage and Sif also has instances of where it can win as well because of their mobility and ranged attacks.
That's true, as Artorias has the most speed out of them all, not a lot of variance but a good amount, and our boy nearly punched his other arm into oblivion.
Pinwheel's dodging ability deserves a honorable mention
This is just unreal- thank you for this content!
The swag walk at the end of each fight is what made it great.
