Odyssey: "If you're looking for something more simple, SMB1 Bowser is your guy." Me: *sad Boom Boom noises*

Smash reference: smooth, nice and smooth

The fact Dry Bones Shells defeat Bowser instantly shows how well Dry Bones would fit in Smash, since he’s OP.

I love using Bowser's fire as a hazard. Also bossfights where you have to hit the axe/goal are severely underrated in my opinion.

1:21 he didn’t say dry bones for smash what cruel world do we live in

9:29 Putting Bowser in a Lakitu cloud works aswell, though it makes the meteors more chaotic Whether or not to use clouds or tracks depends on the difficulty you want the level to be (Clouds also use less course parts, if the limit would be an issue for your level)

One thing you forgot to mention is that if you set bob-ombs as a clear condition, Bowser will throw shells instead of bob-ombs in the clown car.

Bowser, the Enemy little Timmy adores....

Remember kids: *don't end up like Toad*

7:15 in an alternate universe Toad also sounds like a Lego Figure

Interesting facts about meowser that I discovered: if you have a Goomba mask on, most enemies including Meowser will not recognize you. However if Meowser falls from the top of the screen, he will actually shoot fire diagonally toward the ground.

The meteor things can be made by putting bowser in a cloud

4:30 always love to see an editor who goes the extra mile to put in a barely visible Kid Icarus face when the script says "pit"

For the meteor thing, you can put the bowsers in lakitu clouds and it'll work without autoscroll, and that also allows you to have bowsers later in the level that make difficulty ramp up

7:12, I don’t know whether it’s the tone he uses, or the lego Star Wars death noise, but this is hilarious every time I watch it.

One hitting bowser with the goomba shoe is OP

Bowser can be put on a cloud. HOWEVER, the direction his fireballs fall in, doesn't seem to be consistent. I prefer the autoscroll one. Much more reliable.

Switch Stop: could I be featured in your video? PLEEASE Odyssey Central: [shows 5:34] Switch Stop: WTF Jk, you 2 are great youtubers! Keep good content coming!

When I made a boss fight with Bowser, I did kind of make a fire flower spam. BUT there’s a catch. Bowser will occasionally take damage from a shell automatically. However, you can be hurt by it too. If you get hurt by Bowser and the Shell, it gets a bit hard, but since there’s fire flower spam, it’s a bit easier..

That bowser track thing to mimic meteors was actually really cool.

Someone give this dude more subs! He deserves it! Also fury bowser would be one HELL of A boss in mario maker 3!

Tip: Put Meowser over a twister with some ground over it to prevent him from moving into the background.

About Meowser,the best way to make the fight good is putting him on twisters(because he gonna be trapped) or putting cannons with bob-ombs and a small Meowser

For the meteors, you can put them in Lakitu Clouds instead of tracks, which allows you to not need autoscroll. If you want Bowser to remain off screen, you can put them too high to be reached by the player or have vertical scrollstop.

Love that you are still making these type videos, Even after the game’s peak popularity

Another really cool way to use Bowser in the NSMBU is to hide a big bowser above the original bowser so when you defeat the small bowser and when the p-blocks that dropped small bowser become solid, big bowser would drop in and chase Mario.

Bowser: this is it mario i'mma ki *mario steps on button* *bowser dies* Dry Bowser: man how does mario always win?

Meowser can be used in a lava elevator level and he works pretty well. Have a floor of boxes with Bill blasters on top so you can't break them. And at the bottom of the elevator have solid ground so bowser can stand on it and then you can fight him, one of my levels had a donut platform floor for the arena while giving the player fire flowers to kill him quickly since you're not standing standing on completely safe ground

That on off SMB3 Bowser idea was simple but smart. Also like that SMW idea with the p-blocks a lot.

I managed to use bowser’s (offscreen) fireballs as a randomised projectiles for a survival mini game and then used that same bowser for boss battle later in the level (creative and efficient)

6:47 You could use Morton in the other game styles. Also, if you want the fight to be MUCH harder, remove all the hard blocks so that then ON/OFF-switches are the only platform.

I’m making a level right now, and I just figured out that if you are riding yoshi it will add a drum beat to the background music, at least in castle theme, as I haven’t checked any of the other themes.

“Give me a minute.” *CROUCHING INTENSIFIES*

in normal gameplay, if bowser is in a koopa clown car, he will throw bob-ombs, however, if you make a clear condition to defeat all bob-ombs, he will throw shells, and you can do the same thing with bowser jr, but you need to make a clear condition to defeat all koopa troopas instead of bob-ombs

Important note: If you don't want your meteor stage to be an autoscroller, you can fittle around with putting Bowser in a Lakitu's cloud aswell! It works too, just the fireballs win't be centerd in the screen all that much.

Great video! Subed thanks for the ideas!

I love how different styles make different bowsers so in my super world I can have multiple bowser fights that differ a lot

Youre content always makes me happy. :)

Thanks! Those are some VERY COOL tips!!!

Please make a video about how to make a good looking Super World. Also, that was a great video, thanks for the ideas!

Thx for another video like this odyssey I love making bosses!

This just showed up in my search history even though I never clicked the video and saw it in my subscription box. Odd isn't it? Still I'm watching because I enjoy theses videos.

Finally I've been waiting for a video on bowser.

I love ur vids man, keep it up!

Thanks for always making my dat better!

one more thing on the fireball spam, putting a slow moving conveyor belt path between the pipe and the arena can help as it forces the player to actually wait a reasonable amount of time for their next fire flower.

little timmies really need this video link

My Bowser fight from one of my levels has a large red koopa coming out of a pipe and you need to use the SMB2 mushroom to throw the koopa shells but Bowser can sometimes jump to avoid the koopa shells

finally, another video of the best MM2 channel :)

one of the coolst boss fights ive made was for the last level of my super world. the setup recreates the bridge from the end of castle levels but with on/off switches surounded by the block of opposite color and a bridge of the same color. when you collapse the bridge it drops on to a second, then a third, repetaing the setup. with the third bridge destroyed bowser drops into lava and you get the key to exit,

I completely agree, levels or at least parts of levels containing Meowser need to be entirely designed around him and I'm glad you said it. Fireball spamming Meowser fights are awful, not only to they attempt to contain Meowser which we all know doesn't work, but then also fireball spamming which is, as you said, just unfun. I'm kind of getting back into Super Mario Maker 2 so these sort of videos continuing on are awesome to see, I really appreciate them. Also, did you get a new mic or something? Your voice quality seemed really good in this video, better than prior videos in my opinion. It's good to see though, this was a great video all around!

I’ve always found it crazy how small Bowser appears in Super Mario Maker in comparison to every other game, they probably didn’t want to make him extremely large when a Super Mushroom is used on him. 😁😁😁

You can "hold" meowser in place by placing him above a twister. I believe he still shoots fire, so you can make sets just using his fire as an obstacle to avoid, though I'm not sure if it works off screen.

Nice I love your channel

Wow that was really cool

1:27 also poison

If y’all want to try my best levels here ya go (code-Y1D-9MH-LLF “GroundBreaking”) (code-8SB-603-QFG “Koopa Castle”)

Here’s an idea I made in my course! You get Fire Flowers (stay with me here) and there’s a backwards conveyor belt and rising and lowering lava. Bowser (SMB1) is stuck on the right side of the screen, shooting fire balls. You have get a Fire Flower, get on the conveyor belt, and shoot fire balls at him while he’s jumping and also shooting fire balls If you get hit, you have to wait for the lava to lower to get another Fire Flower because one way walls are blocking you from just jumping to the Fire Flowers. (that took longer than it should of)

09:16 Lakitu Clouds: Exists Everyone making this setup: I’m going to pretend I didn’t see that

9:06 plot twist bowser is spitting out giant hairballs that catch on fire

4:30 I like how it shows pit on the left

In my level I made a survival level where he chases you on a snake block. While you are on a snake block he jums around and flies, shooting fireballs and makes for a great survival level. In 3D world I made this ofcourse. So I made two worse items and made a really good level with them....

1:21 - Don’t forget “Dry Bones for Smash!”

2:07 I agree

i made a level in mario maker 1 where you were in a mech (doesn't move) and bowser had a mech and you had a limited supply of fire flowers but one thing that added challenge was you didn't have much room to move which made it hard to dodge causing you fire flowers to quickly deplete (which is why i gave as much as i did) AND you had to aim your fireballs so they would bounce into bowser's mech which the hard to dodge thing easily took the the spam out of fireball spam because you couldn't get a good hit in and move (i could only manage about 1 or 2 fireballs before i had to dodge) oh and you couldn't camp near bowser's mech as i believe it had spikes to prevent that

Bowser is such a pain to use good but this video provides a lot useful information if you wanted to make a good bowser fight

1:49 if you have a clear con for bob-ombs he throws shells

Thanks dude

Hey you forgot a few things that damage bowser: the poison projectiles that yoshi shoots in the nighttime poison theme, the poison liquid from the nighttime poison theme, the void, and getting hit from below by Mario hitting a block that bowser is standing on (? Blocks, brick blocks, on/off blocks, etc).

THX for the tips, are they the same in Mario maker Wii u and nintendo 3ds ???

I did a ‘fireball spamming fight’ however, what I did is Mario comes out of a pipe and there is bowser at the bottom, a large SMW bowser, there is blocks heading upward with only 3 fire flowers spread around, however it isn’t that easy, there is 7 platforms each one has a koopling on it, Roy’s, Wendy’s and Iggyd have the flowers, you have to jump from platform to platform avoiding their attacks or killing them, alternatively with fireballs shooting at you, you can go through a difficult tight area to get a cape where you can ground pound him.

Here"s one way I used Bowser in one of my latest levels called Boss Rush Showcase of Arenas. For my final boss of that level, I have placed Bowser in a room that contains two lifts on rails to help avoid Bowser's flames. Bowser is blocked by one-way walls to prevent him from leaving the spot he was placed in. Bumpers were placed to allow fireballs from Fire Mario to hit Bowser if you have a fire flower going into the fight. However, to prevent easy fireball spam near the bumpers to kill bowser easily, I have put a winged Bowser Jr to throw hammers near the bumpers to prevent camping near the bumpers. The fight is intended to be a survival section for about a minute with a yellow pipe spawning spike balls that roll towards brick blocks. Five brick blocks are first destroyed by the spike balls which is then followed by five ? blocks containing lit bob-ombs that explode destroying the ? blocks below them. The last ? block will spawn a lit bob omb that destroys the hard blocks next to it. Above the hard blocks is a muncher which will fall onto a p-switch activating the p-blocks near Bowser and his son defeating them instantly. When Bowser is defeated by either 40 fireballs or the p-blocks spawning via a p-switch press by the muncher, a key will allow Mario to leave the room through the locked door. This fight was designed so that if a player managed to avoid taking damage during the previous four fights, then you will be rewarded with a way to kill Bowser faster thanks to the bumpers. If you lost the fire-flower or chose another powerup, then you will have to wait a bit before the muncher can press the p-switch below it triggering the spawning of the p-blocks. This fight's not very innovative, but I was going for practicality here. Here is the COURSE ID: MWR-K0K-SHG.

You can make a boss fight with Bowser by puting him on a track in a vertical level or have him chase Mario in a horizontal level

Cool video! Liked!

In smb3 you can make unexpected thwomp bowser by putting bowser in a cage with brick blocks as the floor and then if he ground pounds he’ll fall from the sky

with the bowser meteors, you can also put them in clouds for a horizontal plane

Love the video make more

I like how your name and favorite game is Odyssey, you have the most hours in smash, and make mostly Mario Maker 2 videos- Jk, love your vids + Dry Bones for smash

4:51 reminds me of mario galaxy's bowser battles.

It's actually surprisingly simple

Maybe there could be videos on tips on using Boom Boom, Pom Pom, and each of the Koopalings.

One idea for fireball bowser fights is putting some fire flowers on tracks for a limited fire flower supply

You can contain meowser using a Twister inside the floor and Placing a block on top of his head it's not perfect since depending where meowser Is,he Will Just jump out of the Twister for some reason but it's really good.For example i managed to keep him stuck and let him shoot Fire balls to recreate the Bowser in a car boss fight from 3d world

I have a great idea for a better version of the Fire ball-spamming Bowser fight... So, how about instead of having infinite Fire Flowers, have a limit. Like let say 3. Then, make the room have like three small block pillars, a lot of donut blocks, and flimsy platforms at the bottom to give an extra chance of survival. Add like a couple of regular lifts to be able to jump over a big, winged Bowser. Have unreachable Blasta Mechakoopas for an extra challenge and a couple of Zappa Mechakoopas at the very top to discourage staying at the higher winged regular lifts. For extra hits against Bowser, have only one Red Yoshi for the player.

I haven't played Mario Maker in sometime,I gotta play it again

I made a fun fire flow per spam boss fight you have to time a spike ball to hit a on off block to drop and another fire (I have bobmobs to make it not permanently on flower) but if you don’t lose it it’s not that fun

Fun fact:in your ranked semi solid video you said on the castle semi solid has to much windows,but you can cover them up with the platform semi solid for the castle

Thank you for this. My levels must be garbage cause am not getting much hearts. Gonna try some of your tips. Cheers again mate

Meowser can be used in a snake block level, that's what I'm doing rn

like the meteors in W8-8 in Nsmb DS best mario game btw or my favorite

Last time a I saw you you were at 2k subs

3:11 Mario be sayin' "Oh SHI-"

If you place twisters under meowser he will stay put and not go in the background, and only use fireballs

You forgot to put the spike ball in the samage board! Good video nevertheless

For the bowser meteors, you could just use a cloud? Then you don’t need auto scroll, and it’ll automatically follow the player

A tip from me: If you want a cool SMB3 Bowser fight, I recommend having 2 phases. First phase: You gotta get bowser to smash the floor until he falls down Second phase: You have to keep fireballing bowser until he dies and you get the key to the exit. Just a reminder: I didn't actually test this, so if it doesn't work, feel free to blame me.

3:56 another solution: just spawn block bowser with a dotted line block and before the fight, have the player hit an on/off switch to make bowser spawn in the boss room.

People who started on the game: Oh? Is there Bowser? That’s cool. *proceeds to make a Bowser fireball spamming level*

I made a Mario Kart 8 Deluxe tournament called dry bones for smash!
