Talking about hades, “there is a hand full of LGBTQ characters”, yes it’s Greek mythology a very queer mythology, additionally not clearly stated but Artemis is often seen as AroAce both in hades and most depictions with some lines in game hinting towards it

I know we dont technically have a proper bossfight against him but ive always like how Hendrick was this badass knight chasing you throughout the entire first part of DQ XI and something you needed to avoid. And when he joins you in part 2 hes everything he was cracked up to be being one of the most powerful and well rounded characters in an already powerful cast.

Yes dragon of dojima i like switch style brawale style rush style beats style spacial kiryu dragon resurgence op

One thing I will say in defense of Severa is that the localization made her a lot meaner, turning a Tsundere into a spoiled brat. Fates actually fixed one of her issues by dialing back the meanness by a mile.

Yeessss Ganondorf is so damn good, glad Hyrule Warriors did him justice

Real good video.

Bro. You forgot about oddworld bad endings

I really liked how in FE: Awakening Walhart later becomes playable. He's an absolute beast of a unit, with only one real weakness being his low res and I guess middling speed. But, he has this unique Conquest skill that only he has. If you get S support with him as Female Robin, you can then pass down his awesome skill to Morgan and use heavy armor classes without the weakness. Through supports In that game in general, it was just great how they allowed bosses to become better understood and in a way redeem themselves despite their role in the story

Isnt king of fighthers popular in most of latin America tho? Also pizza tower sau maudraga or something

I don't know if it counts. But I'm that guy who played Yakuza Kiwami before 0. And playing like Majima, pffff. I remember having a blast using slugger style and trying out every kind of weapon in the game

I dunno about anyone else, but the section at the end of SSBU's World of Light where it lets you play as Master Hand is unadulterated euphoria

The Castlevania series deserves some attention in this regard

Pokémon SV gives us three such examples. "Guardian of Paradise" Miraidon/Koraidon, and Ogerpon. These things are HELLA powerful, and they remain maddenly powerful after you catch them. It's no wonder the othet thing these three have in common is that (massive spoilers) they've all killed before, Ogerpon killing the "Loyal Three" in revenge for attacking her human companion, and the Guardian having killed the respective professor. By the way did you know you can catch the Guardian before the school tournament? You can make Arven fight the monster that killed his parent. I REALLY wish there was special dialogue for this!

Hello Mr shelf

Queen Sigma from Vampire Survivors (Please play it). She’s not the final boss technically, but you unlock her after 100% the base game. It sounds hard, but you can also use a cheat code to unlock her early. Anyways she has the best stats in the game, a revive her base weapon is really good, hitting enemies multiple times a second and synergizes well with most of the game’s arcana (bonus modifiers you can choose during a run). She can also get 5-6 arcanas relatively early, when the rest of the cast gets 3-4 max. And in a game about what weapons and skills you get randomly, being able to reroll for a chance to get better stuff (or even remove things from the pool) is pretty op. There are times where my switch crashed because she kept killing too many enemies and they had to keep spawning. So yeah good game would recommend

The Noise?!?!?!

1:45 just something i wanna keep in mind

MOTIVATION MAN IS IN YEEEES

Noise has every right to be here, lmao

i think the most broken part about the noise isn't really his moveset - it's his transformations. nearly every single transformation has been changed JUST for the noise, and pretty much all of them make the transformation straight up more broken. both the knight and the rocket transformation bounces off walls, mort is now throwable and can reach pretty much everywhere, the shotgun becomes a gatling gun - everything is just off the rails. and it isn't just that it's good, it's fun too. it's to a point where certain transformations (such as cheese) can be considered superior to their former selves. noise doesn't just break the game, he REDEFINES it.

I hope Hakita makes a V2 DLC one day to Ultrakill, It'd be cool to see him on lists like this

Even the 1# fan of Kiryu,Ksou was not only in japanese dub but in english dub too as the fangirl of Kiryu.

I gonna say it,Epic Battle Fantasy 5 had better difficulty balance then this game.

I don't often say this but hitman was straight busted I actually welcome the nerf just for the sake of variety and trying other classes

Playing as Sephiroth in Smash is amazing. You really feel like your the boss in a boss battle when you play as him, which is very fitting of course

20:05 Not just one of the best, he is THE Meta Knight of the Marvel vs Capcom series.

No Kirby Star Allies Dream Friends? Unsubbed. (but seriously though those guys are amazing as far as playable bosses go, Magolor's expanded moveset in Return to DreamLand Deluxe specially once you fully power him up. His moveset was so powerful as-is that he was genuinely top tier in Kirby Fighters 2)

Midnight Club 3 Remix is the perfect arcade street racing. Many vehicles to choose (even choppers),the cities are amazing to drive (except Atlanta sometimes),many races with so much freedom to drive,the music is all bangers and one of the best customization in vehicles. P.d. The last of us is overrated (even is kinda mediocre).

Honorable mention to Prince Porky from Angry Birds Epic (and Angry Birds Epic All-Stars) and Metal Sonic the fighters (also Metal Sonic and Eggman are banned from community tournaments).

15:30 I've never seen that clip before, I gotta use that XD

VERGIL

literally legendary pokemons after you catch them. Mewtwo remains a favorite Gaius in Tales of Xillia 2 which they decided "instead of nerfing him and destroying his image we'll make him super OP but limit how much you get to play as him". Yes also Ganondorf in Hyryle Warriors, with Trident is my favorite Alan Richard/Renne Hayworth in Trails in the Sky the Third. Alan being a pretty cool boss fight in the first game, and an absolute speed demon when he join. Renne being a nuclear button with slightly more potential than Olivier but more risky because glass cannon stats. Vivian in Paper Mario is arguably even better than when she was a boss fight because she can actually hide you from dangerous attacks which she doesn't do for her sisters. Hornet in Hollow Knight is so strong they're holding out on releasing her game in fear!!! THAT STRONG!

I personally never had been able to have the privilege to play as a boss in a video game, (Mainly because I didn't have those types of games) but I still really enjoyed this video! Especially the Virgil section at the end. Maybe it's because I've never played a Devil May Cry game before, but I was so damn curious about him as soon as you started talking! But yeah I think I'm going to try a Devil May Cry game now, mainly because it looked so fun! Anyway that's where my appreciation ends and I'll see you later in whatever project you are working on next, goodbye for now! ^^

I love how noise is just there. Bro thinks he’s in the team lol

I was just wondering why Ganondorf is in the very middle of the tiers. Before I get into what I mean, allow me to first put out there that I have been playing for years, and I have watched MANY videos of the tournament masters. My brother and I found out, through years of play, literally EVERY advanced technique in the game, except the wavedash, which we stumbled upon, but wrote off as simply hilarious. I was surprised to find that all the wacky observations we have encountered and adapted are actually defined in the glossary in the sticky topic above! Three of the particularly surprising terms that I could not believe had been widely known and utilized were the Phantom Hit (I just thought I had a glitchy game) and that effect where recovering at the right time from attacks that sent you flying results in an upward boost if you jump out/air dodge/whatever early enough (I cannot remember what it was called in the sticky), and the waveland. Now, I have been using Ganondorf against my brother lately, and he cannot seem to beat me. We think we know why, and we think it puts Ganon at the top of the tiers. I will be brief. Ganondorf has his air forward. We call it 'The Punch.' It has that special hitbox like a sword, hence it goes right through anything except an attack with that same type of hitbox. It does 17% max, is relatively fast executing, has basically instant recovery on a barrier cancel, and is quite massive, killing at rather low percentages. If he misses, he can just do his A punch if the opponent tries to retaliate, or shield/roll. I am telling you, Ganondorf is a crazy meat mountain who crushes bones with many attacks doing 15+%, survives to insane damages thanks to his weight, and has ridiculous horizontal recovery (Double Jump, Ganondorf Kick Down B, ANOTHER Double Jump, ARE YOU SERIOUS, Up B). Next, check his roll. It goes like half screen. It makes him rather fast, nearly eliminating his speed problem on the ground, and a great character when it comes to the defensive game. It pretty much eliminates the need for his wavedash, which, with Ganondorf, who needs to do most of his attacking from hops, is pretty much useless already unless you are looking to smash attack. Wavesmashing, however, in my opinion, is also a bad idea, because, in the time and damage it takes you to actually land a smash, you could have just used The Punch and killed you opponent by then. Even though he has to fight mostly in the air, 3 of his 4 air attacks are pretty fast, and are quite massive. A major advantage he has is that nearly all his attacks move the opponent considerably, and can topple him from 0%, so his opponent gets little to no counterattack opportunity. The only explanation I can find for why he is low on the tiers is that no one has used him seriously. I think he really keeps up, if not tops, the top tier characters. I really do not like to simply shoot my mouth, and I am not one who thinks it right to shower a character in encomium, and never actually prove anything. Is there online for this somewhere, or is that simply wishful thinking? If not, please do not yell at me and stuff until you at least check out The Punch. Goes right through projectiles, goes right through attacks, goes right through faces. Please just give Ganondorf another shot and tell me what you thnk. Final Comment: People have a tendency to think that posts from newcomers to a board but veterans of its respective game are saying they are better than everyone else, regardles of what the post actually says. Please note that I did not say 'I am better than you' or 'Ganon is better than Fox.' I said, essentially: 'Ganon seems to be great. These are his strengths. He may top Fox. Check him out and see if you agree.' I will say, however, that I am a full master of Ganondorf. Please give Ganondorf a second look before responding so you know where I am coming from!

Need I mention Majima in Yakuza 0? Breaker style SPIN TO WIN BABYYYYYYY

I feel like the Championship Edition of Street Fighter II could also count for this list, because it lets you play as the previously boss-only Four Heavenly Kings that were balanced with eating quarters in mind. But there's something so satisfying about a character like the Noise completely changing how the game is played.

Bro why are you rocking the middle-aged SCP scientist look, anyway, Despite watching most of the video, i'm gonna go out on- well, The Noise! Spoilers for the campaign. His reasons for being so overpowered all rounding back to the whole thing being a movie makes it all the more hilarious how Noise is so willing to just... cheat his way throughout the Tower's many mechanics and bosses, i'm not gonna repeat what you said in your PT videos, but i will say this: Where as Peppino's gameplay is fun and satisfying due to just being able to steamroll through any enemies in your way, having more lenient tech and mechanics and a more low skill ceiling, Noise is fun due to how bouncy and wacky he is, and just how overall different and generally harder to control he is compared to Peppino, which makes sense.

Bowser from Bowser's Inside Story doesn't exactly feel super broken, but it really does sell how big and imposing he is. I love how, instead of doing silly jump attacks like the Bros. do, the guy really just settles for punching enemies straight in the face. And it always feels SO satisfying when you hit that perfect punch, and EVEN MORE SO in the end of the final boss of the game (if you know, you know).

HYRULE WARRIORS MENTIONED, VIDEO GOATED

13:25 YEEEEEEES

Fire emblem awakening if robin counts since he's grima. If not codename steam where again robin uses grima and he's so broken. Tales of xillia 2 gauis and muzet. So op. Crymaria from Valkyria Chronicles 4
