Intro

Guide contains spoilers, blah blah, listen to my opinions or close the guide. grrr.
Note that this guide is a WIP. I will likely add images someday. Eventually. uh...
I will also likely increase detail as time goes on.
Shoutout to the guide 'How To Unlock the Secret Boss Characters' for the branding image.






































War Machine

TIER: C
As first bosses go, it's not so bad.

Barbarian Boss

Tier: B
Man, this guys fun. Big, bad, he's the true picture of a boss!

Troll Mother

Tier: D
No. I hate this stupid furball.

Catfish

Tier: C+
It's a good boss... but how are we supposed to know about the cannonball thing?!

Bear Shaman

Tier: B
Meh. Normal enemy with extra oomph.

Pipistrello

Tier: C
Tongue-attack on insane is overboard. I was also done with the bathroom humor by this point.

Conehead Groom

Tier: B
This guy's spritework and idea were... not great, but his boss fight is great. Particularly the shotgun-minigun-cannon organ thing.

Troll Queen

Tier: B-
Had a lot of potential, but it only had one attack. You could make it through by literally just throwing the thieves at it.

Cyclops

Tier: B
Annoying how you couldn't block his knives, but otherwise fine.

Volcano

Tier: N/A
I refuse to call this a boss.

Dragon

Tier: B+
Yes. Dragon. Yes. Instant B. It's spritework and fight were good, so... B+!

Industrial Machine

Tier: A
YES. MAKE MORE OF THESE. I AM BEGGING YOU! I love having multiple nodes to damage.

Alien Ship

Tier: C
Eh. Just eh. Broke the theme of the game, but was fun to fight.

Mutated Corn

Tier: F
Boss is good, but i have a grudge.

Medusa

Tier: B
Good boss, had potential, but the fight was a little too easy.

Frost King

Tier: F
I'm going with the majority vote here. 10K HP on insane is a biiit overboard.

Painter

Tier: C
Good idea, but i hate this fight... extra animation on Fresh Mode was uh... quite the addition...

Undead Cyclops

Tier: B
Same as other Cyclops i guess.

Necromancer

Tier: S
This is the true final boss. He has it all. Cool magic? Check. Jamming theme music? Check. Harasses the players? Check. Perfect fight? Check.

Evil Wizard

Tier: F
I am breaking this down by phase.

Phase 1
No. Stupid shield. Too easy to sabotage your team.

Phase 2 & 4
This is juggling. Not a boss fight.

Phase 3
...dumb design, overpowered, impossible to dodge.

Phase 5
Literally impossible to hit.

Outro
