Shoutouts again to youtube.com/@jngo102 for making the boss! He posts Hollow Knight vids, go subscribe!

Team Cherry just sitting on a completed Silksong while nomming popcorn and watching the community plunge deeper and deeper into masochism.

"You can dodge it if you're skilled enough at the game, as you can see I managed it... one time" Truly the humblest of humble brags 😂 you love to see it

Seeing this mod just makes me want to ask the creator "Who hurt you?"

So who else is now waiting for the video in 12 Months explaining how some crazy speedrunner has beaten AnyRad 3.0 😂

The orb in Phase 2 should have custom dreamnail dialogue that just says the word "orb" 270 times

Something that I really like about modded bosses like this one is that the attacks are more unique than the base game, it’s not just “oh now the attacks are even faster than before”

6:26 “maybe if you told HuntHussle that steady body is bad he would get angry enough to be able to do this”

I can't believe that the final phase is just Markoth. What a way to end the fight

This boss battle makes the nameless king from Dark souls 3 look like the worm you'd put on the hook just to get radiance to show itself... this is absolutely insane and I love it Edit: bruh it took me ages to beat nameless king 😭 am I just the only one here that isn't built different in a good way??? Edit 2: lmao I don't even understand half of this tiny war in the replies

I give it a year and you’ll have three absolute gods beating this

I like how at this point it doesn't feel like an immensely powerful entity fighting you at their best. It now feels like a god who is toying with you. Giving you barely enough room to dodge each attack on purpose, taunting you with the fact that you cannot beat it.

The thing is, it would actually be interesting to see some of these mechanics in an actual winnable fight.

Phase 1: Beam Screen, Speed Swords and S P I K E Phase 2: Beam Star, S P I K E, Spirit Bomb WR and Portals Phase 3: When you can see, how fast can you flee? Phase 4: it's *BEYBLAAAAAAAAAAAADE-*

This is the definition of “Oh, this boss is near impossible, yet someone beat it. Let’s give them this!” (Someone is totally gonna beat this, I’m already predicting it).

The first phase has already been defeated and it’s so sick

Having to whack the ball back and forth to damage the boss is actually quite a cool mechanic. I would love to see it implemented in a boss meant to be beaten

I like how Radiance revolves around itself in the last phase. When I saw it for the first time, I smiled even despite the horror of this mod

He’s never “winning” the war. Unless silksong comes out, this will just be an endless stalemate as the community delves into insanity trying to beat this boss. Never say something is impossible, because unless a TAS is unable to beat it, the community eventually will.

Crazy that they already cleared 3 out of 4 phases (in one day!).

I really like the idea of Hunthustle beating this hitless with steady body out of pure spite.

It feels like he got a lawyer’s advice on what is *technically* possible

I actually think phase 2 is really fucking cool. It’s such a unique idea and the portals are so cool. I love everything about phase 2. It’s so cool.

I feel like this boss is all my fault and I am immensely proud of it. This is everything I hoped for when I started 2.0. Also the first phase I did radiant because of a glitch with the BV dash. I'll be uploading that soon. Climb and final was done. Rn plats is the big big big issue. That beam star is just... yeesh.

Wow wow Italy has been busy! Radiance 3.0 looks WILD and as always great showcase from Fire!

Can't wait for the TAS version to see if this fight is even possible at all

I know why he made final phase that easy. It's because when someone kill the boss (there is now first phase complete) he can just make stantard orbs, but faster and spikes around arena, so you can't attack radiance from up. And he can add the hardest attacks from all of any radiances and Any Radiance 4.0 is made

"this spirit orb could delete your hard drive" - fireb0rn calmly while trying to kill the literal god of god of gods

Team Cherry has to release Silksong soon, this is going too far

Some of these attacks could actually work really well in an actually balanced bossfight tho

The second phase's mechanics are actually really cool and if tuned back to a reasonable level could actually end up proving to be a really cool fight. Might need to split them up to make it fair though. Other than that, seeing just a TAS of the full thing would be a treat to watch. Love that Bob Fred created this.

I'm so angry right now. This is beyond sadism or masochism. This is literal insanity. I love this community.

I literally burst into laughter when fire talked about dodging the sword walk and when he said “and I am proud of that” because I beat normal radiance after to long or trying and the feeling he got dodging that one attack is how I felt beating true ending! God made my day

We need silksong already This is just insane at this point

The fact that 3 of the 4 phases have already been beaten is actually amazing

The beam ball should stay in the last phase. Wouldn't be hard to program it and it would bring the last phase much closer to the difficulty of the other phases.

I would love a realisticly beatable verion of this with the new mechanics

So you’re saying, hypothetically if my Carefree Melody activated 200 times in a row, I would have a chance?

It's great to see Any Radiance finally acting like a god and changing the rules.

The way he says "beamburst" is really satisfying for some reason

Whoever finishes this boss gonna be insane

Alright time for bets, which happens first! Someone beats this boss or Silksong comes out?

I will be beyond impressed if someone manages to do this. Just insane

Continued effects of the Silksong drought. We need to bet if it will be beaten before it comes out

This is the exact response to the question "Why we need Silksong"

One thing that might exist is a tell. The swords in first phase are always on the same level, so you can shadow-dodge one then dodge the other. Of course, this is a maybe since at low HP their level changes by 1. Also, at 6:05 Phase 2, Any Radiance teleported into the warp, and so ended up somewhere else. At 5:34, the five-pronged light also teleports through it. I'd assume the same could be done for any other projectile. 4:44 also showcases an interesting quirk to the portals. In that you can actually see where it leads.... Checking back at the projectile teleport, it is possible to guess where it will take you. Black portals are located low(correction down below, they likely lead to Radiance), exit points while image portals lead higher. If you look at 4:40 before Any Radiance obscures it with their light, you can see it's exit point is at a pillar. That isn't a refraction of the pillar it's in front of, but it's exit point as seen when Fireborn ends up going through it. Looking back at the projectile teleport, the portal shows a tower top obscured by clouds. In that regard, you need supreme environmental awareness to take advantage of them, but it can be done. You could even send the projectile through them intentionally... 4:50, and the first portal in the fight. Are the Black Portals a result of the Radiance being nearby their exit point? That time link shows that it's extremely faded during the second it can be seen, and then it turns black when the radiance teleports in front of it at 4:52. Ell, you can see the radiance's rings through the faded portals too. Rather than chasing the Radiance, your goal should be waiting for a chance to chuck the projectile through the portals. Not only does it free up movement space, you got a good shot at dealing damage. Ironically, the Climb is probably the hardest part of the fight. You have to get through both previous phases, which means your HP is low enough a mistake could cost you the entire fight. And those platforms appear way far from each other, or right next to each other. Neither is good given the light. Might be worth trying to get that thing down below the bottom of the second phase and then climb like your life depends on it. (Slugs might be most useful. Does it count to push the projectile? As they fall they can free up time if they do, though your soul is limited. Their multi-hit nature would be a bit silly if they do.) Wouldn't mind seeing some infinite hp testing to see if these theories are correct.

The any radiance situation has evolved into a full on arms race between the modder and the community

Community: Beats 2.0 The mod creator: and i took that personally

Gotta hit the beam burst into the boss? Finally a use for Heavy Blow

I am scared for what will happen once 4.0 will be made

There's so many fun mechanics here! They would be amazing for an actually balanced boss fight.

The Hollow Knight community continues to amaze and terrify me at the same time with all their mods

Next thing you know, Any Radiance 4.0 is just gonna instantly kill you once you enter the boss room.

Waiting forsome madlad to do this on radiant

I cant believe that you used falkkone's cover for the music, i love falkkone so much!

I love how the final phase at the top of the platforms is called the "Fidget Spinner" phase.

But can it beat Zote the Mighty??

imagine someone beating two of these at the same time hitless while screen is upside down usingly only toe fingers to control without using spells

Can't wait for the inevitable followup in a month or two that shows some mad lad defeating it.

can't wait for Any Radiance 4.0

Time for hollow knight players to descend into a new level of insanity

Seeing people attempt this really makes me think that when silksong comes out it’s gone be beaten in under 2 seconds…

My first observation is that the sword wall attack in the beginning is impossible to have enough time to even be able to fall down to the gap most of the time since it is in a random location. You could easily dodge it by dodging away from the second set of sword to buy yourself enough time to get a second shade cloak and dodge back through that second pass!

most creative ideas ive ever seen :)

I feel like he'll make 4.0 just because you can beat it with infinite health.

We all know Merg is gonna casually no-hit this right?

Fire: But Italy has won the war *5 Years later* Fire: *Releases new EP of God Gamers*

Seeing a TAS doing this, now that would be some crazy content to watch. ... you hear me, Jarlyk? ;)

It is funny how 3 of the 4 fases are already beaten😂

I feel like after some random sweaty guy beats AnyRad 3.0, AnyRad 4.0 is gonna be Radiance with hacks 💀

Would definitely love to see a TAS of this, hope he decides to make one.

"You know what everyone likes? Godhome Uumuu, lets add that to the fight!"

Lore accurate radiance

hollow knight community is really really insane, and i like it

So crazy you beat it without losing any hp :o

the time i spent on just regular radiance, this would be a bucket list boss battle for me

A boss not designed for human players. But maybe an AI could beat it.

you know it's an avengers level threat when fireb0rn says it's "very tough"

Seing this I remember that once upon a time silksong was announced for this years february and I think its about time when the god gamer says: "you can technically doge this."

I thought I saw it all during phase 1 but then the moving spike platforms and perma deathray starfish of doom took it to a whole new level. I'm crying.

This looks absolutely INSANE.

Fireb0rn WHAT HAVE YOU DONE YOU CREATED A MONSTER OF DESTRUCTION

Omg, I can’t wait to see if someone actually pulls it off.

Phase 2 is actually a really interesting concept for a boss. I would love to play a version of if it that isn't absolutely insane and player-hating.

I think Beam Burst is my favourite term now after having heard it so many times

This is how regular radiance boss fight feels to me

would really like to see a tas on this someday. pretty sure this is beyond human skill but gl to anyone who actually attempts it.

this is beyond crazy^^

Any Radiance 3.0 in the last phase: "I live in Spain, but the 'a' is silent."

The creation of this has to be a trauma response to the absence of silksong

The damaging radiance with the beam burst is a cool mechanic. Too bad it's complimented with an impossible arena

My man said :" you beat the impossible, now to make the remix."

"The beam wall is a little bit tougher"

The "oh *no*" I let out when I saw this video pop up-

Can't believe someone already beat phase 1 Hollow Knight community gotta be one of the biggest badasses there are

I was watching a video about a day or two ago that at the time there was an exploit that allowed you to C-Dash off the map(After many, many seconds of going in one direction) to disable the beams of light and I *think* disables the sword attack too. Significantly more manageable and the 1st phase went by quick, but 2nd phase still seems impossible.

the creator was DEFINITELY high when creating this

I like how in the last phase Radiance is just like "S P E E N"

Any radiance litterally send you a giant genkidama in his second phase

I can already see someone absolutely destroy radience and dodge everything like a god💀
