Great strat for phase one. It is also worth mentioning that you can essentially skip phase 2 if you immediately nuke the robot head as he rushes toward you.
@@PuffzZzZz4973 it works in expert mode, you have to time it correctly by waiting for the head to go towards you and shooting it until the last second when you activate your super
I’m barely seeing this guide, but after 2 PAINFUL hours of fighting this bastard I beat it, and for once genuinely felt excited about beating a boss level
The slo-mo shots are super helpful. I've been stuck on the final phase for a while, and seeing the little back and forth movement you do is probably what'll save me
Phase 2 is not that hard to me. What gets me is the last phase. I'm having a hard time dodging all the projectiles while moving up or down to avoid the barriers. Super frustrating!!!
Deffinitly the hardest boss in the game. It's crazy how difficult he is. He just comes out of left field. So different from all the bosses. Just be patient and I recommend using the heart charm. Good luck.
Another tip is to use Djimmis wish (go in a circle three times and you wil get double hp until thr next time you beat a boss), it makes it so much easier and there is no other boss more worthy than this one to use it on. But one you use the wish, dont fight another boss as if you beat it, you'll lose the double hp Edit: Five minutes after this comment, I beat him
I used this advice on Grim and it went by way quicker only took me a day. But unfortunately I accidentally wasted my wish on baroness (worth it though, I was having a bunch of trouble with her)
For those who struggled what I advise is practice this boss in co op because it forces you to get good at dodging and I recommend using coffee charm Spamming him with super abilities was useful
The moving up and down to dodge crystals in the final stage REALLY helped me. Got him in 3 tries after that, thank you. Also, nuking him before the 2nd stage shortens that part significantly. For the 1st stage, I find it easier to knock down the antenna on his head first, then the center part and finally the bottom. At that point, I will be in a good position to shoot those pesky bombs as they come out. Something that really helps is to destroy a few of those annoying ships that come from before they cram the screen, but not all because you don’t want to destroy the bottom piece before the others. Good luck!
Interesting tactic, I find the "bomb lob" attack basically useless on this guy. Just used regular bullets killing antenna first, then bottom portion, then chest. Last phase is definitely the worst. Those plates in the way are literally unavoidable sometimes, and it lasts so long on expert.
tip: make sure to actually not focus on damage in the part where the heart is exposed, focus on dodging bubbles (if the hands are there) and make sure to shoot the bombs and dodge the bolts. Really helps in the long run.
Thanks for this! I’ll act as a test dummy for this and come back to you whenever I get done! It worked a bit but not wonders, I got farther than normal but overall didn’t really work, but that’s because I suck at literally everything I do, so I’m not mad, just disappointed in myself for not being able to execute the simplest of tasks like this, It’ll still be my go to strat for this boss because it’s brilliant but I suck at existing and I need to stop or I’ll lose my epic gamer status.
TYSM!!! this bossfight was so hard for me that i literally left the game for 2 months. now 2 months after i finally beat dr kahl's bot bossfight at 5th try!! :D
Thanks for this video I made within 20 min but with a sheer of luck, I found convenient after the first sequence when the heart is out to put myself in the lower middle back part and shoot the heart with the normal gun, then for the last part of you don’t get shards of the screen and stay in the mid back you will find a space to pass the diamonds without even getting small 😊
Thank you so much! Your advice was great. I had watched other play through a but none of them helped me at all. Your tutorial went into great detail and I hope you keep the awesome work
Oh my gosh thank you I just got the DLC and I wanted to beat the real game before starting the DLC and this helped so much, I was stuck on this boss for a while
Watching this video after having beaten the boss, I realized that I totally forgot you could use bombs using plane! I defeated the boss using only the standard gun...
To skip the second phase you can just use a super on the boss after you shoot them maybe like twice, it's a useful tip if you're bad at the game like myself or if it's just an annoying phase and you'd rather get the boss done with
i think the only thing that makes this boss hard is the first phase and the amount of health it takes to beat him and because one wrong move and its all over
@Relyea First off thank you for your vid it helped out a lot. I just beat the game and man mofo was hard but enjoyable lol. Spent a couple of hours trying to bear Dr.Khal then finally went to sleep. Woke up next morning and beat him on my 2nd try. Crazy thing is the highest rank I currently have is only 1 A+ against Dr.Khal so I think thats strange. Just spent like 3 hours on the Devil.... and thats my second highest with an A. Just wanted to share, thank you again take care.
Remember I asked you if this game was as hard as ppl say? Just beat it fully (with my bf for co-op)! It was pretty tough like you said. It's a very rewarding game tho! This particular boss wasn't as hard to me as others to my surprise. I thought Cala Maria and Wally Warbles were harder. Ps. Congrats on the new baby Relyea!
when his heart pops out if you stay in the bottom left corner and shoot the bombs when they come out, avoid the actually really easy projectiles and arms, and hit the head. But you can basically do it for free if you shoot from bottom corner and watch for bombs bcuz u can instantly kill them when they come out
The 3rd phase is basically Wally warbles when he is raging but there are walls that go towards you so if your good at Wally then you should be good on the last phase
I used a different strategy for phase 1 and 2 Phase 1: I start by shooting the antenna on top and right when it's about to activate, I go down and shoot the magnets as they spawn. I wait for the antenna to trigger to the bottom and go back to the top to shoot it and repeat the process. Once the antenna is destroyed i stay on the bottom part and destroy the magnet spawning thingy followed by destroying the heart. Phase 2: I shoot the bombs with my normal weapon and when the head is moving from left to right under me, I try to drop 1-2 bombs on it. Thus i don't lose any hp throughout the 2 phases. Tip: You can use heart ring as there are many options to parry
Great video! this game is SO FREAKING HARD. my sister and I are playing through this on our channel right now so videos like this are really helpful. I am not looking forward to this boss but your video helps a lot! keep up the good work and if you happen to stop by our channel make sure to say hey :)
@B R U V ! Hey, if ur actually interested TNTGamez was the channel with the gameplay. But I am an anime analyst now on my channel Casual Weeb.(the one with a CW for the channel art) So the gameplay channel doesn't have too many vids recently
How I did it: Equip Auto Super Fill Phase1: Use 2-3 cards on laser. Make sure you hit it when he doesnt shoot, cause he blocks it off. Phase2: When he shoots his head off do a little damage and use 5card Super. When you do it right you completely skip Phase 2. Phase 3: Get distance and full concentration mode. Spend Cards when he rests. Hope this helps😊
Basically Isle 3 for me: -Rumor was pretty easy once I got to the last phase for the 2nd time -Britney Beard wasn’t that bad, nothing really to say -Werner werman took a little bit, but I soon got it. -Phantom Express was really easy (idk why) -Sally Stageplay just took some getting used to because her attacks in the 2nd phase messed me up I’m stuck on Cala Maria and Dr, Kahl rn but I hope this tutorial helps! (I might update idk)
I didn’t sleep until 2 am yesterday because I told myself that I wouldn’t go to bed until I beat the Grimm. More precisely, I tried to fall asleep, but could not, then took out a gamepad and beat him. And today I have this...
Something that i figured out about the magnet ability if u go directly down to the bottom left all the screws will miss u and you will shoot any drones/nuke he sends out to u and if u keep holding the joystick/keys down u wont get pulles up
Thanks to your strategy the beginning is easier plus I just do the special at the head at the start to basically skip the second face, the las fase however is a giant pain in the ass hahahaha
When a robot is harder to beat than the devil himself
I know right!?
Ur profile pic explains this caption
YEESSSS
*devil being sad intensifies*
True
Most people claim the dragon’s the most difficult boss. They clearly haven’t fought this guy yet.
The dragon was much easier than the robot. At least I thought so too
I mean grim was hard but with the lobber he is super easy
SpringlockZ ikr when I got o him he was ez cuz lobber
Try playing WITH A KEYBOARD
I personally can’t
Great strat for phase one.
It is also worth mentioning that you can essentially skip phase 2 if you immediately nuke the robot head as he rushes toward you.
Wait, you can do that?!
No you can’t
@@staringintoyoursoul you can
It doesn’t work on expert thi
@@PuffzZzZz4973 it works in expert mode, you have to time it correctly by waiting for the head to go towards you and shooting it until the last second when you activate your super
Yeah. I personally think this is one of THE hardest bossfights in the game!
Great video relyea!
This one took me a solid hour. The first phase is super tough!
I think this is THE hardest boss in the game.
it IS the hardest bossfight in the game
Let's say... The hardest boss fight in my life

NICE! get it

So many universes just combined. What have you done!
Sonic is gonna get mighty pussef about it. No wonder Dr. Wiley gave us bullet hell on the last phase.
I’m barely seeing this guide, but after 2 PAINFUL hours of fighting this bastard I beat it, and for once genuinely felt excited about beating a boss level
ive been fighting him for 9 hours nonstop
Now this boss is worse than Grimm I SWEARRRR
It is a straight bullet hell
Grimm matchstick or NKG?
Grimm
By a MILE
The slo-mo shots are super helpful. I've been stuck on the final phase for a while, and seeing the little back and forth movement you do is probably what'll save me
Ty sooooo much! I was stuck on this boss for 4 days, but once I watched this, I got it on my first try!
No way! Glad I could help! It work me a couple hours
this boss is “fuck this game” fuel to the max
If you have your nuke face thing ready just use that when he’s about to eject his head before it gets off screen to almost skip the second phase.
its kinda a waste but it's good for speedruns
I just tried it and it actually worked. Thanks!
Phase 2 is not that hard to me. What gets me is the last phase. I'm having a hard time dodging all the projectiles while moving up or down to avoid the barriers. Super frustrating!!!
Cant wait to see how much my panic intervenes with using your helpful advice! He's the last one standing between me and King Dice.
I hope you get it! Good luck
Agh I had so much difficulty during nap playthrough of this boss. Thanks for the advice!
Deffinitly the hardest boss in the game. It's crazy how difficult he is. He just comes out of left field. So different from all the bosses. Just be patient and I recommend using the heart charm. Good luck.
You are very much welcome!
I’ve spent 6 hours on this boss and still haven’t beaten him.
It’s very tough to say the least. Take a break every now and again. Give yourself mind a chance to figure it out
Finally defeated this dumbass robot. 8hrs total!
6 hours? Haha, please.. ive spent a month on it and still have not managed.

Your first phase strat was PERRRRRRFECT!! Finally beat him! THANK YOU!! ❤️
Glad I was able to help!
I remember trying to beat this boss for hours, and when I finally managed to beat it I was so good at it I got an A+ 😂
Nice job

NOICE!!!
Lmao I just beat the boss and same for me got an A+, I need to take some rest.
After using your strat I finally beat this guy, thanks for the help man.
I watched this video and literally right after watching this I beat him. I was trying against this boss for a HOUR. THANK YOU SO MUCH
I also recommend using the heart ring charm on this fight it helped me a lot
Thank you for helping me beat the boss, Dr. Kahl's Robot felt like hell to me. Thank you.
The dragon gave me no trouble.....and this guy made me search for guides..... I've been stuck on this boss fight for more than 3 hours
hope you were able to get it!
@@RelyeaGaming after an additional 40min.... it's done...tysm

Hey Relyea, will you do a S-Rank guide for some bosses?
Possibly... these guides have not been doing very well so I will probably only do one pass through of Cuphead and not get too too deep

THANK YOU MY GUY THANK YOU
YOU DONT KNOW HOW LONG I SPENT ON THAT
TYSM it was my last boss to Inkwell Hell this video really helped me with first and second phase
Glad I could help!
This was so helpful, it actually worked. Thank you
For the heart phase I find using the primary gun in the lower portion of the screen and lowering slightly to take out the homing bombs is way easier
The last phase is so rng and long and hard to dodge and that is what makes this boss the hardest
thx for the advice Relyea! Helped me out a lot!

Words can’t even express how annoying the bombs that chase you are I literally always get cornered even with this strategy
It’s tough to say the least. This was the best I could come up with

-Rumor was pretty easy once I got to the last phase for the 2nd time
-Britney Beard wasn’t that bad, nothing really to say
-Werner werman took a little bit, but I soon got it.
-Phantom Express was really easy (idk why)
-Sally Stageplay just took some getting used to because her attacks in the 2nd phase messed me up

Wow! Thanks it took my three trys after i got the strategy down.
I didn’t sleep until 2 am yesterday because I told myself that I wouldn’t go to bed until I beat the Grimm. More precisely, I tried to fall asleep, but could not, then took out a gamepad and beat him.
And today I have this...
Fuck yes, it was insane
Well done!
Thx you helped me beat The bosses i was stuck on
Brqted Dr kahl's robot by using this guide and another guide
Super helpful betting it next try with the tactics
To be honest, I think this boss is way easier using regular darts rather than bombs.
Really?!? I found bombs easier early on because they deal more damage and is easier to destroy the tracking bombs
Thanks man this really helped
Something that i figured out about the magnet ability if u go directly down to the bottom left all the screws will miss u and you will shoot any drones/nuke he sends out to u and if u keep holding the joystick/keys down u wont get pulles up
the homing bombs are always what get me
Good God, you made that look easy...
