To answer why Fryes eels are coming from Octostamp-Octostamp is essentially a whale fall in this game. The corpse of a massive sea creature being used as a habitst for others, in this case as a nest for Fryes eel swarm.
If you think inner agent 3 is irritating to fight ,then you consider yourself irritating to fight, inner agent 3 is what 8 remember about them during their fight (mentioned by Captain Cudlefish) : an unstopable, loaded with equipement, ultra smart and tough inkling, just like you were in the splatoon 1 campaign aka how much you were op back then. This fight is literaly fighting your own ocotling's PTSD (and your old self) and that is just a brillant idea for a secret boss.
@@guillermocervisalmeron2209 imagine if Inner Agent 3 just set up tons of sprinklers around the mape meaning you never had any of your own ink anywhere.
@@fchef8370 Giving Inner Agent 3 Splatoon 1 specials would make that bossfight even more difficult, because the Splatoon 1 specials were capital B BROKEN. Even more so considering the special spamming, but even worse than all that, the main downside is that hackers would now be able to use those specials online. And that would just suck. That's probably the main reason they didn't do it.
One thing that might make the Octo Shower even higher is the lore behind it being that it was designed to be so unstoppable however there was so much cramed into it that it was too heavy to float on it's own without help from Octocopters.
The octoshower has some similarity to a specific borderlands 2 boss… the BNK3R, greatest defense bot every built. The lore just adds to that similarity
Ik it's just a cartoony game, but if 3 tiny little propellers were enough, I find it hard to believe that they couldn't just stick something on top of it... Such as 3 tiny little propellers. Ig you could argue that you could just shoot down the propellers alone anyway though.
I still gotta say, I prefer the Splatoon 1 Octavio fight over Grizz. Grizz is an amazing climactic finish, but DJ Octavio teaches you so much more about how to play the game. You may not think about, but that boss ingrains threat management into your play, and if you put any thought into the game, you’ll find yourself prioritizing certain enemies in multiplayer without even realizing it.
Mr grizz was also wayy easier, octavio took me several hours, and i beat grizz in 2 attempts (including buildup), after not playing a splatoon game for over a year
I think all 3 final bosses do this in their own way. You also have to remember the added anxiety with Grizz's fuzzy ooze which act as an obstacle in a lot of places, especially when he rotates the Rocket. One touch counts as instant death.
@@TheGravityShifter I do see that, it may just be nostalgia showing through for Splat 1. But I do really like how they used all of the story mode mechanics in the boss - the stage was littered with ballon fish, Inkrails, invisible platforms, sponges, basically every gimmick the story mode had used in the past. Though I think everyone can agree Splatoon 2’s final boss was pretty disappointing in comparison
The age old tale of a youtuber not paying attention to anything that happens in the game theyre talking about, he even called the song "Fly Octo Fly" "Off the Hook".
In defense of Frye, Frye's boss battle doesn't really count as an octo stomp battle. The only thing he does is spin around and lay dead when you're supposed to ink frye. Essentially, they wanted to keep the tradition of octo stomp being in every game while also making his boss battle completely different by making the eels take the main role.
I feel like it'd be better if you took into account the fact that in the Splatoon 2 (Main Campaign) bosses, they make you use a specific weapon type to beat it the first time. Like the Roller boss was way harder with having to use a roller. Same with Octo-Shower with the Sniper Rifle. Like the weapons played a HUGE part in the difficulty and overall gameplay of the boss.
Yeah he mentioned how he feels like he’s doing something wrong in the ink shower fight. It’s because you are, the hero shot doesn’t have that type of range
An interesting note: Inner Agent 3 actually has the exact same range, rate of fire, and defenses as you do. Their dodge roll, aggression, and ability to easily get turf covered is what makes them difficult, as well as just how long the fight is, and how hard the phases get. There's no real advantage to Inner Agent 3 or to the player, because Inner Agent 3 IS the player!!
@@Zoroark_Master Not necessarily. It is possible, if difficult, to trick the CPU. However, they are programmed to turf all possible area, so if they see any blue ink, you'd better believe they're going to try and yoink it out. And if you make any noise at all with your Octoling, or make any splashes in the ink you create, you'd better hope you like the color orange, because it'll be delivered to you in an adorable Autobomb care package.
While that is technically true, the angle in which Inner Agent 3 aims gives them a tiny bit more range than you. Of course, you can do the same to even it out, but it isn't consistent and isn't worth it.
@@lunamaster123 I never noticed a problem during the fight; I just always assumed that if I could hit 3, then they could hit me. I have noticed, however, that they take a little bit longer to adjust to sudden movements than the player does, making the fight a battle of range against accuracy. That alone made this fight way more fun for me.
@@joshmurphy6609 I was merely commenting of IA3's effective range. The guy in the video said that he felt that he was outranged. That was the reason why. I think it was a good idea because it would have made the fight even easier for me. I originally tried to play for trades since your armor regenerates before the next phase starts.
I think one cool thing about the octavio fight in splatoon 3 is that the reason he's so easy is because he doesn't have the zapfish. It's a cool way to explain why he's way easier than his previous versions
I’m kinda surprised the Octo Samurai didn’t return in some fashion in 3 since the Splatana is a new weapon there and you could have had a Splatana dual with him.
I love how Frye was using an octostomp lookalike myself. It's a completely different style of battle, but it's just a cool reference to the trend of octostomp being a recurring foe. It's much better than reusing the original fight again like in 2 and octo.
I think Frye's boss fight should be a little higher on list. Frye is not an octostomp, she just uses its body and I think its pretty nice to have some connection to previous games. Plus its not like Frye's boss fight uses same mechanics as Octostomp. She attacks with eels and I think its nice: not so hard, but have some details in it, like eels with different eyes. Frye litterally spins this huge thing just by dancing while playing a flute! At least concept-wise its a lot better
Am I the only one that thought the big man fight was intended to be a bit of a joke because that fight was WAY easier for me than fyre and was still significantly easier than shiver
@@Apache730 I agree. Big man was my least favorite ( but not a bad) boss in the game because compared to the others I found it sorta easy. Still a good fight though
@@Apache730 Yeah I completely agree. I was extremely underwhelmed by his fight. He's probably my favorite deep cut member, but his fight is just boring to me.
Can't forget the Calamari Inkantation remix in the Mr. Grizz fight. It was so good in that Kaiju fight phase that I didn't care it took me two tries. And now that Mr. Grizz is done, it's implied that Lil' Judd takes over Grizz Co. now which is cute and hilarious. Japanese games seem to never be short on insane boss fights which makes me super excited for the large scale Expansion they have planned.
big tip for inner agent 3 for those who still want to beat it: Any cover will nullify the splashdown, even if it visually goes through, it wont do damage. You can circle around the cylinder for the final phase to easily avoid the splashdowns.
Honestly, Octosamurai is one of my favorite bosses, because unlike the others, you can attack him throughout the fight, and he will react accordingly. It makes for a much more player-oriented, dynamic fight
9:15 Correction: After getting the third thang, when CuttleFish does his drawing, you can make him redo it to change 3's gender, no matter which gender 8 is.
I’m pretty sure they’re trying to make Octostomp the Splatoon equivalent of Wispy Woods from Kirby, and I’m not complaining cause I love both Wispy and Octostomp
In Splatoon 2's Octo Expansion DLC, there is a secret final boss fight that awaits you. To unlock this final challenge, you must have completed all 80 of the station levels in the DLC, and completed the game with all of the collectible Mem Cakes that you can exchange for gear.
Something that not a lot of people point out, is that you fight every boss in splatoon 2’s main campaign with light blue or green, and then the boss takes that color in the octo expansion. Most boss fights you use light blue, but you use green for the octo shower. The octo shower in octo expansion uses the green variant of the sanitized ink though. Just shows how much they were planning ahead.
I do love the Frizz fight. Its especially entertaining to watch a kaiju salmon fight a kaiju grizzly. Almost like the salmon was getting revenge for thousands of years of grizzly spawn camping
fly octo fly is such a flawless track especially for the boss fight (COME ON THE “WOAH-OH-OHHH WOAH-OH-OH-OOOHH” IS THE TEST PASSED JINGLE THATS AWESOME) it keeps strong tense rhythm since you’re on a timer but still feels and sounds super badass also little detail I love is that Agent 8’s first time on the surface, is of course, their first turf war
sidenote, on the topic of music, while splatoon 2’s octavio fight is super mid, tidal rush is such an underappreciated track, fusing callie and marie’s solo songs shockingly well considering how different they are
one of my favourite details is that the octostomp V2 fight is in the same arena but more run-down, which is a cool detail that shows how bad the octarians took the defeat in splatoon 1
Splatoon is such a COLORFUL experience! An INKREDIBLE game! First time we're taking a SHOT at ranking this game! And i'm done SQUIDING with these puns!
The answer to the Mighty Octostomp's legs is that it's not a mammal, as they went mostly extinct. We're talking about octopi. he doesn't have any hair to begin with.
Man that can't be serious. Yes, Octavio is Octavio. But come on, the last two games he was extremely powerful due to his enormous energy from the great zapfish. And now that he doesn't have it, all he is is a beginning roadblock. It makes complete and total sense.
for fryes boss the octostomp makes sense because deep cut goes scavenging for tresure so frye most likely found octostomp and usess it for the boss fight
2:05 Ironically despite having the physic of a sumo wrestler it’s said in the concept art page that he’s really not good at it. 5:00 Also, I guess the ink vac just doesn’t exist.
the frye fight hardly uses the octostomp. the octostomps corpse is just being used to house frye’s eels and also its just a little refrence its much more fun and creative then a featureless cube also yeah the octostomp is dead and the octomaw is the first shark boss
Honestly I feel that big man should be much higher since as long as you're paying attention you can very easily and quickly take him out without him doing much to you. (Also a great way to farm power eggs)
You mean ranked *lower? (Seriously I cant tell if you mean he should have a higher number or if you really think he's top 2.) Cause I do agree he's super easy. Too easy imo for the last boss before the final sequence. Personally I'd switch him and Frye
the reason inner agent 3 appears to be able to shoot further than you is actually because the CPU aims above you instead of directly at you, the latter of which is of course what most players tend to do
I just realized that the final boss from Splatoon 3 is very similar to the final boss in Sonic Adventure 2. It's in space; we boost towards the boss to attack it; the boss's weak spot is a pink oozing boil; and Smallfry gets super charged up similar to Sonic and Shadow. Not to mention, we're fighting to save the entire planet!
In my opinion, Inner Agent 3 was my favorite boss, even though they were HARD AS ALL HELL, it was the most challenging boss fight ever and I enjoyed beating it... even though you only get a hairpin
Honestly, I remember the octowhirl because of how much it terrified me! I never wanted to fight it because of how scared I was 💀 Same thing happened for the sneaking levels in Splatoon 1 and I was actually able to do those ALSO WHY DID YOU SAY THE OCTOSTOMP WAS EASY That boss took me 10 months to defeat when I was like 7 because I wasn’t a god gamer yet but still
I enjoyed the video, but there is some misinformation in this. The reason that octo shower felt weird is because it’s intended to be beaten with charger, and agent 3’s gender doesn’t depend on your player character’s gender, but depends on how you decide it to be with cuttlefish.
Octoshower was weird because you were fighting with the standard gun instead of the charger that Sheldon makes you use on first impression; this goes for Octo Samurai and the other 2 bosses
Even tho I've never played the Splatoon games past 1, I love seeing the campaigns; the bosses all look super fun, especially DJ Octavio 1 and Commander Tartar
12:08 - Off the Hook is the band name, not the song. The songs that play during the Tartar/NILS statue fight are Fly Octo Fly for the majority and Ebb & Flow (Octo) for the last minute.
There can be some leeway for Splat3 DJ Octavio because it’s stated that he didn’t have the great zapfish’s power as in the previous games, he did. That’s just me though
The first game came out when I was 8 and I have barely played it since, all I could remember about the final boss is that my dad, who almost exclusively plays shooters, REALLY struggled to beat him so I never even bothered. Thank god I was able to defeat the 3rd games boss before my dad even started the hero mode story, it was so irritating but it surprisingly made me really emotional. I mean, I've been playing these games since they came out so for 7 years now and being able to finally beat a boss all on my own without any help felt really amazing, I'd watched my dad beat all the bosses and was really impressed by all of it. The only other time this game made me cry was Octo expansion, and that made me absolutely break down sobbing. All the music definitely elevates it a lot, I ADORE the music in this series, from the more minor bands in the regular game play to the concerts with the idols, it's absolutely my favourite part of these games. I can't wait for the DLC so I can see my beloved pearl.

Honestly I feel that big man should be much higher since as long as you're paying attention you can very easily and quickly take him out without him doing much to you. (Also a great way to farm power eggs)
You mean ranked *lower? (Seriously I cant tell if you mean he should have a higher number or if you really think he's top 2.) Cause I do agree he's super easy. Too easy imo for the last boss before the final sequence. Personally I'd switch him and Frye
It’s not just ease that Nathan takes into account, you know. It’s also what it does. A sunshine reference is very neat.
7:12 it’s more of a gutted out octo stomp… what did they do to deserve this
These game never gets old I love this series
Hol up, ain't you Nathaniel B?
Bruh, I feel like Inner Agent 3 is the true number 1 boss in Nintendo history because of how difficult, and badass it is.
the reason inner agent 3 appears to be able to shoot further than you is actually because the CPU aims above you instead of directly at you, the latter of which is of course what most players tend to do
Hol up.Aint u nathaniel B?
I just realized that the final boss from Splatoon 3 is very similar to the final boss in Sonic Adventure 2. It's in space; we boost towards the boss to attack it; the boss's weak spot is a pink oozing boil; and Smallfry gets super charged up similar to Sonic and Shadow. Not to mention, we're fighting to save the entire planet!
The final boss in Octo Expansion is so extremely Godlike I love it!
Ain't u Nathaniel B?
Octo Samurai: Congrats Octonozzle, you're not the worst boss in the series. Octowhirl is.
Octonozzle: Imput Text: Yay.
Aint you nathaniel B
Calamari Inkantation 3mix is probably the best remix of the song by far
In my opinion, Inner Agent 3 was my favorite boss, even though they were HARD AS ALL HELL, it was the most challenging boss fight ever and I enjoyed beating it... even though you only get a hairpin
3:58 if it was not like the toast was already burnt
4:05 but this is just a insult now.
Honestly, I remember the octowhirl because of how much it terrified me! I never wanted to fight it because of how scared I was 💀
Same thing happened for the sneaking levels in Splatoon 1 and I was actually able to do those
ALSO WHY DID YOU SAY THE OCTOSTOMP WAS EASY
That boss took me 10 months to defeat when I was like 7 because I wasn’t a god gamer yet but still
Ah dang it took me 10 minutes
It took me like 15 minutes when I was a literal 8 year old gamer
You forgot to mention how small fry turns into a giant normal salmon, and fights a larger stronger Mr grizz
I loved the mr grizz fight not only IT was pretty difficult also the music was a banger
I enjoyed the video, but there is some misinformation in this. The reason that octo shower felt weird is because it’s intended to be beaten with charger, and agent 3’s gender doesn’t depend on your player character’s gender, but depends on how you decide it to be with cuttlefish.
Fun fact: Big man’s ink has the deep cut logo on it.
Also, I love how he insults the bosses and is funnier than he was before
Octoshower was weird because you were fighting with the standard gun instead of the charger that Sheldon makes you use on first impression; this goes for Octo Samurai and the other 2 bosses
Yo hold up, ain’t you Nathanael b?
it makes sense how weak Octavio is in Splat 3. He doesn't have the Great Zapfish this time, that's why he was so strong
Great fan,🎖💫 thanks for your comment

Hold up ain’t u Nathaniel b
Even tho I've never played the Splatoon games past 1, I love seeing the campaigns; the bosses all look super fun, especially DJ Octavio 1 and Commander Tartar
Nathaniel B real ??
Fly Octo Fly/Ebb and Flow is in my opinion the best song that has come out of Splatoon so far.
Hold up, aint you the individual by the name of Nathaniel Bandy?
12:08 - Off the Hook is the band name, not the song. The songs that play during the Tartar/NILS statue fight are Fly Octo Fly for the majority and Ebb & Flow (Octo) for the last minute.

There can be some leeway for Splat3 DJ Octavio because it’s stated that he didn’t have the great zapfish’s power as in the previous games, he did. That’s just me though
Hold up, ain't you Nathaniel B?
hold up... aint you nathaniel b?
The first game came out when I was 8 and I have barely played it since, all I could remember about the final boss is that my dad, who almost exclusively plays shooters, REALLY struggled to beat him so I never even bothered. Thank god I was able to defeat the 3rd games boss before my dad even started the hero mode story, it was so irritating but it surprisingly made me really emotional. I mean, I've been playing these games since they came out so for 7 years now and being able to finally beat a boss all on my own without any help felt really amazing, I'd watched my dad beat all the bosses and was really impressed by all of it. The only other time this game made me cry was Octo expansion, and that made me absolutely break down sobbing. All the music definitely elevates it a lot, I ADORE the music in this series, from the more minor bands in the regular game play to the concerts with the idols, it's absolutely my favourite part of these games. I can't wait for the DLC so I can see my beloved pearl.
Spatoon bosses are pretty good. By the way have you considered making ranking every Wario game?
Yes, I'll be ranking most big Nintendo games eventually! It takes a long time to play them all as you can imagine
@@NathanielBandy ah yes also NATHANIEL BANDY REPLIED! OH YES YES by the way, is it okay if I make parodies of you’re Good and Bad videos?
@@NathanielBandy Hey is there something I need before Bandy's Universe?
@@NathanielBandy ain’t you nathanial b? Also have you ever called out the nathanial b comments, and if so how do you feel about them.
I just want to say thank you Nathaniel Bandy because I have really bad anxiety and all of your videos really help it. Thank You
