Yup, this is how I cheesed most of the “don’t get hit” challenges. Since only Kirby has to be untouched, Bandanna Dee can go to town

There’s always one overpowered guard in every Kirby game. Most of the time it’s stone

Shield Logic in Kirby kills me The Ice Guard,which is probably the strongest material out of all the other things,is easier to break than the others A freaking wooden silhouette and a bush can take on Magolor,Sectonia and all the other Bosses' Hyper Beam Attacks and they just don't do damage at all This Shield can resist against Giant boulders and Lava balls but can't resist against a Snake

Huh, now that boss fight requirement that was "Win without guarding" makes more sense now. The more you know...

The ice copy ability's ice shield works in the same way in all it's forms.

Meta Knight's meteorite attack penetrates the shield because when you're hit by it, it triggers the squish animation most likely being solid ground rather than a projectile.

ironically, kirby's greatest weakness is getting eaten.

For Meta Knight’s rock attack, you can see that Kirby gets squished, like in the Power Plant.

I think this also works with the ice copy ability

4:53 Now Kirby may not be able to walk on poison, but this STUPID snake can!

Chaos elfilis: attacks in a manner similar to a SAM turret Kirby with Gigant Sword's shield: Don't care. Don't care. Still don't care.

Dude the shield is so overpowered... That's Insane.

I know this could just be a coincidence but knowing HAL's attention to detail, the attacks that hurt kirby all making sense logic wise amazes me, like only being crushed by objects that won't break around you like machines hence why boulders that can move or break won't hurt, and why kirby gets damaged when eaten or grabbed etc because as soon as kirby is lifted or moved he'd lose his stance since clearly weilding the shield requires you to stand guard with it being so huge and heavy. Obviously the exceptions are fleurina and morpho knight but like you said, it's not the fire that hurts kirby from morpho's attack, so it's logical to assume the tornado needs to be powerful enough to lift kirby into the air to again make him lose his stance and guard as we clearly can see even with every normal enemy's attacks that while invincible, kirby can be moved proportional to the weight or strength of the enemy, so stands to reason that the more powerful twisters will only lift kirby. The lava and poison is why I feel like this was thought out much more because like you said against the poison toad kirby doesn't get hit, meaning poison doesn't affect the shield, only his feet, and also explains why dedede's attacks won't hurt until lava is formed under kirby despite the attacks coming from above. As for forgo meta knight? My guess is that he wasn't fully thought out since he was a one time appearing boss added maybe at the end only? But a better theory is maybe the helmet vs the shield. For example, the meteors in the lava levels and the one's elfilis summons from space don't scratch kirby. Why? Fire has nothing to do with it as we've seen. Maybe because the boulders and meteors are falling at an angle, meaning some component of the force is put onto the shield leaving only some for the helmet to absorb the impact. In his guard form, the helmet can be seen being invincible, but to a _degree_ since again, the back of kirby is _sometimes_ protected but with stronger attacks like meta knight's, there is a limit. The helmet will swallow any impact from a minor boulder from above in that sturdy guard move and since kirby can be pushed easily around it. But since forgo MK's meteorites are falling from directly above much larger than any boulder we've seen fall vertically on kirby instead of at an angle, we can assume the shield isn't at all involved with defending him from MK's meteors, meaning the shield takes all the impact. Not only that, but the metoerites unlike the boulders shatter around kirby, meaning mass is distributed around kirby instead of just pushing him out of the way, again like the machines creating a situation where kirby cannot be pushed out of the way with the force with no where to move, but is forced to absorb every bit of it. That just leaves chaos elfilis who I assume due to being large moving with that force leaves kirby in a situation where he can't be pushed out of the way but that's a weaker assumption as we've seen larger objects push kirby, although with much less force and power as chaos elfilis so maybe it makes sense? Or maybe that creates an upwind affect with so much heat that the area is scorched and light is distorted as you'd see in deserts meaning kirby again was pushed up by wind?

fun fact you can normally block the giant spear from chaos elfilis's big sister

3:35 Missed opportunity: "they don't stand a *ghost* of a chance"

Ice works like this too! (And blizzard Ice damages enemies as well)

the reason the giant rocks attack hurts kirby is because it crushes him, just like the giant metal crushers.

it's surprising chaos elfilis's tornadoes won't break through (you didn't mention them so i'm assuming they do nothing), because they're inherited directly from morpho knight, and those did work~

Chaos Elfillis: I fear no man but that shield. It scares me

This can be cut into an amazing infomercial for *Gigant Shield* ®️.

4:33 WHY IS THAT KABU JUMPING ALL AROIND?!

wow that weapon upgrade waddle dee was able to make a shield that protected kirby form lighting he rlly made something extremely powerful

the black hole attack from chaos elfilis is a reference to marx's black hole attack.

Nin10do I just found a little bug.you need a crash ability and a vending machine. Then, activate the crash. Then, before it runs out inhale the vending machine and then,you won't lose the crash ability

2:18 "parry this you fucking casual" "try me"

I literally never shielded or blocked once throughout my entire playthrough.

2 questions. Q1: Are all of the experiments shown in the video with the ability powered up, or not? Q2: If not, I wonder if you power up Gigant Sword to the maximum power level, could it possibly change the ending list at 15:05?

"its fair game" proceeds to tell us why he is invincible to sillydillo

I'm not surprised Morpho's tornadoes can hit Kirby. In Star Allies, Morpho EX's tornadoes could mitigate Stone, something very few attacks could do.

So you mean to tell me... the only things that can break Kirby's shield... is a psychic bomb, a black hole... and VORE?! the more you know.

Fun fact: the giant Chaos Elfilis that appears in the background nd swings a giant spear at you is actually really weak. The spear does not need to be jumped or dodged over, you can just use the regular block and it will deal no damage! Yep, you dont even need the gigant shield. Just do that small block move that regular kirby has and the giant spear will do nothing to you!

I found 6 things you may have missed in Kirby and the Forgotten Land 1- When Kirby uses the Deep Sleep ability, his pillow lights up, but can only be seen when it’s dark. Try the lightbulb section of Moonlight Canyon. 2- The clock tower of Northeast Frost Street is stuck at 4;27 and you receive 92 star coins for making it there. That’s because Kirby’s Dream Land released April 27, 1992. 3- Phantom Dedede and Phantom Forgo Dedede have slightly different colors. Don’t look at there gotcha figures- look closely at there animations when they are defeated. 4- When Phantom Forgo Dedede jumps to the ledge in the background, you can hit him with sword projectiles, stuff you inhaled, and even with ranger abilities. (The cursor won’t lock onto him, but if you aim for him, you will hit him.) 5- When you use Crash+⭐️ on Forgo Dedede, it will end his first phase automatically, but the gong for when the music tracks transitions fires early, while you use the attack. EDIT: use attack boosts along with Crash+⭐️ to guarantee it works. 6- At Waddle Dee town, if you hit Meta Knight, Dedede, or the Waddle Dees holding food, they won’t react no matter how hard you hit them. They will simply shake a little and continue their animations.

The unique moves and properties of all the copy abilities are pretty cool alright, it's just too bad that if you actually want to fully complete levels, then you're almost always using the copy abilities the game wants you to, not the ones you want to. That aspect of the design really undermines the point of having so many ability choices in the first place if you ask me.

Only 3 things can really hurt the shield… 1. The Power of Forgo 2. The Power of the Knights 3. The Law of Physics (command grabs and liquid don’t count)

Wow! I never knew the shield is that good!

I noticed this and tested it on Tropic Wood. Nothing he could do could hurt me and the best part was that the spikes on the shield do a tiny bit of damage to the enemy. This honestly makes me want to see a shield only challenge run of Kirby and the Forgotten Land. It would truly be a test of patience and skill because the Tropic Woods fight took me ten plus minutes to beat.

This ability is stupidly op

the shield is like the stone ability from other kirby games

It can resist everything, but the giant snake enemies, alligator enemies, poison that Kirby walks across, being crushed and squashed, Gorimondo's command grab, Sillydillo's cage attack, Meta Knight's rush attack, where he charges at Kirby, and clash both their swords together, Forgo Dedede's lava pillars and suction, Chaos Elfilis's suction and fire ball attack, and many other things.

4:51 the snake: i will eat you kirby

They really did not think through that shield.

Of course grab attacks get through. Have you ever played a fighting game? Block beats punch, garb beats block, and punch beats grab.

Here’s a thing that you might have not known but the snow balls from the purple 🐧 if there small you can eat them and get the ice ability

My opinion on the most overpowered copy ability has changed

So I’m practically invincible with a small shield with tiny spikes on it

Literal god: 😊😊😊 Blue snake: 💀

ice guard is amazing too

4:01 that has already been proved in planet robobot

With phantom meta knights lava rock attack CRUSHES kirby and that's why kirby gets hurt with that attack

I tried to cheese the chaos elfilis fight with fully the upgraded blizzard ability/shield. All it did was waste all my powerups because shielding wastes time -_- which is also when I discovered that the suction attack gets through the shield. I was finally able to do it with my favorite ability, crystal needle though!

i think the ice has the best shield. i pretty much beat the game with ice. as the shield is nutty. every single attack it would just block

The the second stage of chaos selfless that’s the pain dimension from when you fight MARX that’s what happens when you get sucked into the black hole that marks creates

The Gigant-Sword guard ability is absolutely busted, but the only problem with it is how slow the sword is at finishing attacks. So, if you get too many hits in and can't cancel them, you can end up taking lots of hits.

I remmeber i had a very succesful true arena run in robobot. I got to haltman and had the mirror ability. And i wondered, hmm can i block this giant laser? I couldn't. My ability flew away and the run was ruined.

You can swat away(keep it from hitting you if you if you swing away) the giant meteor with the extended Morpho Knight Sword from the final boss as well.

Man Kirby is invincible

this is why i use gigant sword more than other sword stuff

The ice shield is very over-powered

Kirby: Pooooyoooo! ( I'M POYOING INVENSIBLE )

My man really played on Spring Breeze

There’s actually a fourth evolution for the the sword and the hammer

This is a nice Nin10doland theory

the falling rocks do not have lava efects its the sqwash that penetrates the shield!

Yaa That two points for the only two reptiles that can breakthrough Kirby shield also can I just say that why there's really mainly mammals in the beast pack?

Tbf, things that dont hit a sheild cannot be blocked by a sheild. Therefore, attacks from below don't count as its the same as if there was no sheild.

This shield is proportional to real gigant edge

When you use a fully charged twin hammer swing but Kirby is still holding up his shield.

shield is basically in lore kirby resistance

This Shield Blocks way too much.

3:35 They didn't have *a ghost of a chance*... sorry I had too.

wow nice job on the video this is very interesting as most of the attacks don’t get through which is similar to the stone ability but since you can’t move away afterwards most of the enemies wait ontop of you so you have to take damage i’ve noticed while using stone which is why i like archer more because you can move and avoid damage with that so it’s just better than stone also you did a video on the sheild but i noticed the disappearing dodge move with the morpho knight sword is also pretty strong i’d love for you to do an experiment video with that ability to i think it’d be pretty interesting but anyways awesome video keep up the good work my friend

This would be cool to see but with ice’s block instead

The ice block can block everything to and it also damages in final form

So, essentially if it doesn’t have a command grab, suction or lava/poison effect or it’s Forgo Leon’s shield, Kirby’s shield can and will block it.

That shild is something else man!

2:40 Lol 😂

I don't know I'd u have done a video abt this yet but if u get blizzard ice and press guard then he becomes this ice ball and I actually tested it since kirby is covered all around he doesn't take any damage

Shame Parasol, Mirror and Bell were never that good hopefully in the future.

Cirby has the sheild maple from bofuri uses lol

THATS JUST A THEORY A KIRBY THEORY :D

I'm now going to use Kirby's Gigant Shield from now on because it's strong!

Kirby and the forgotten land more like: kirby and the magical shield

just like other games, Grab attack can get enemy while enemy blocking.

Did you know if you inhale the bombs you get the bomb ability

same results as ice, right?

Huh, how very interesting.

I watch too many videos about switch games and I don't have one. I'm think I'm not okay.

omg wait can someone please tell me the name of the music in the very beginning of the videos?? i know for a fact i’ve heard it before outside of his channel, but i cant remember where

How does a gigantic turtle that can eat Kirby get blocked by the sword but a snake a normal snake can eat Kirby

I think Kirby gets damaged by meta knights rocks because it counts as crushing kirby

I literally used that shield to damageless Clawroline and King Dedede first try.

well mama turtle biter dudes can atleast push a lot

So the shield is bascelly the ice forcefield

It would be a bit more challenging if they had a Health meter for the shield And windshield breaks you have to wait a few seconds to get it back again

the ice shield does exactly the same thing as the gigant sword ability.

I love your video

Try it with ice gaurd max lv

The sword line is very strong

Blizzard ice does the same thing but does damage at all sides

Blizzard Ice shield is op
