Can ANY Boss Survive Bayle The Dread? - Elden Ring Shadow Of The Erdtree DLC

In this elden ring video I'm testing if any of the strongest bosses in elden ring can survive bayle the dread. To test this I brought him up to the arena of the dragonlord and scaled every other boss to ng+7 to actually give them a fair chance against this new dragon from the shadow of the erdtree DLC

[@BjornTheBear]

Indeed

[@PierceArner]

Bayle has by FAR been my favourite fight in SOTE thus far, so it's awesome to see him going toe-to-toe against everyone and showcasing that moveset more openly. I love how against the Dragonkin Soldier of Nokstella & Mohg, you can really get a sense of how Bayle is a dragon who practices Dragon Communion by feeding on his own kind, and you can start to see the same sorts of monstrous human qualities reflected in his draconic nature that makes his design really stand out from all of the other types of Dragons & Wyrms in Elden Ring. Especially against Placidusax (who he lost to, but which physically ravaged them both in both lore AND this perfect showcase of a battle that was like that), you can see how that pain and outrage is starting to take his Crimson Lightning and twist that huw to resemble something more akin to the burning hatred of the Frenzied Flame.

[@shyguyrocks1]

Elden Ring players calling a stalemate a loss for the second time. Granted I get why with Malenia and Radahn, but here we have no shady ultra special attack granted by some Goddess. It was an equal bout with mutual injuries.

[@PierceArner]

@@shyguyrocks1 On the Talisman of the Dread, _“whose challenge to the ancient Dragonlord ended in grievous mutual injury.”_ - Bayle challenged the Dragonlord, and though the battle ends in mutual injury, he didn't gain the title of Lord and was confined in exile to the Realm of Shadow with all of the other defeated, so *_he objectively lost._* Radahn & Malenia were both vying for the title of Elden Lord during The Shattering, and their conflict was described as, _“a battle without victor.”_ and Malenia has, _“never known defeat.”_ so theirs was ACTUALLY a stalemate, whereas Placidusax vs. Bayle was absolutely not. Whether Placidusax's injury and keeping his title as Dragonlord was ultimately a pyrrhic victory for him is worth exploring, but one of the Ancient Dragons literally sacrificed her body to aid in Bayle's destruction to emphasize the alignment there. The Dragon War would likely have resulted in a significantly different developments depending on when the conflict occurred, as would the Dragons' extant relationships with humans (Vyke & Lansseax as well as Godwyn & Fortissax) via the Dragon Cult holding power. Whereas the practice of Dragon Communion which Bayle himself engages in is considered taboo. Any way you slice it, Bayle lost and it's meaningfully impactful that he did.

[@diegocantu9853]

Bayles battle with Dragonkin was pretty cool, holding up with frost while the duel with Placi is the most epic rematch between dragons I’ve seen

[@geervanramasawmy2312]

Another stupendous video! At 0:45 I like to imagine that Godrick's story continues after the previous upgrade video. Having lost most of his powers, he follows the player to the Shadow realm after the player has defeated most of the bosses. From there, he grafts parts of the new bosses into himself and acquires new abilities- Dancing lion's elemental abilities, Rellana's magical skills, Bayle's fire lightning, Messmer's snake flames, etc. P.S Gideon never disappoints :)

Damn, thought Elden Beast was gonna win for a moment there.

[@BjornTheBear]

So did I

[@baconman1778]

Honestly, if it didn't get knocked down it would've beat Bayle. Elden Beast getting stance broken is nearly always a death sentence for it against bosses with hard hitting attacks..

[@frencerenniermendoza5047]

Elden beast did a choke job😅

[@EvoLando35]

THE WAY I WAS SCREAMING DURING THAT LAST FIGHT!!!! Oh man one of the best ones yet🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

[@BjornTheBear]

Glad you enjoyed

[@akechijubeimitsuhide]

Chadfrey not even phase transitioning was the coolest fucking thing Also: this is why Maliketh is terrifying.

[@mattzarock]

The literal embodiment of power and destruction right in front of your feet. Sir Gideon: "What a sad state of affairs."

Damn, he defeated even Rick, soldier of God.

[@dylanmahon2394]

I blew air out my nose with the clown horn and truck horn. Very nice touch

[@BjornTheBear]

Lol glad you enjoyed

[@jonasv5405]

just as i was reading this it happened, glorious 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

[@VenciiGames]

Damn son. Elden Beast was finally putting in some work and just got wrecked at the end.

[@Aleksandr_Skrjabin]

Late bosses absolutely destroying Bayle, Melania fighting for her life almost losing in her second phase as well,

[@caze4155]

Maliketh did a better dance and won haha

[@holokom3330]

Ay - Malenia Struggled hard to in programming though I feel ? She was extremly passive - and missed almost all of her attacks - Won anyway :D

[@hiramesensei3112]

late game bosses *at NG +7*

[@uzn8545]

​@@holokom3330well not if you take into account how bosses are just walking straight into Aeonia all the time

[@igorkonforovich3497]

They are all NG+7 and he is just NG.

[@merouln700]

Surprisingly a lot of very cool fights, some weaker bosses showed they could still pack a punch, loved seeing Astel somewhat clown on Bayle and Rykard and Laser Golem too. And I'm of course glad that Death Rite Bird got destroyed

[@MaleniaUU]

Dragonlord: I never mind doing the same thing AGAIN

[@ZoeBateman]

I think Placi vs Bayle in that arena might be one of only a few 100% lore accurate boss vs boss fights I've seen on this channel. Especially visually speaking, with Placi's ripped off heads stuck to Bayle's back, Bayle's missing leg, and all the other wounds both have that just match up perfectly to what each dragon's attacks might cause. Absolute cinema.

[@Cthululululu]

Just not the same without Igon screaming his lungs out.

[@dorianshepard2841]

Episode 124 of Maliketh being that guy And then Godfrey not even acting troubled, maintaining full courtesy

[@Jonkenstonk]

The Bayle and Placidusax rematch was amazing

[@DizTroy81]

That combo of moves Bayle did to Someone Yet Unseen starting around 23:55, to 24:12 was some apocalyptic scale a$$ kicking! That was epic AF! I kept replaying that lol

[@theocovello7750]

The fight between Placi and Bayle is about what I’d expect from a Ghidorah vs Destoroyah matchup. Toho better be taking notes

[@themightypizzadevourer6018]

GOATfrey definitely lives up to his title
