History of Knights - Kirby Super Star Ultra Knight Boss Analysis

[@poyoSC]

So Galacta Knight was bundled with Meta Knight into one video - I suppose I can see why, he is basically the EX version of Meta Knight in this game. KSSU makes the fight much more simplified and predictable than KSS, but despite that the Knight bosses are still some of the most difficult bosses in the game. The one silver lining here is Galacta's weakness of the Crouch(TM). Next would be KRTDL's "secret" Galacta Knight fight in The True Arena (Metal General does not count as a Knight boss). It's a pretty interesting boss since it cleverly reuses Meta Knight's player animations to recreate a Knight fight, and serves as the basis for all future Knight bosses. He/It is also the first Knight boss to not reactively block, but instead occasionally does it (usually before an attack, but is guaranteed to do so after a Tornado attack).

I was actually kind of surprised to see both these knights in one cause I always read their fights as having different vibes, but you break down really clearly how they aren't lol. I think a lot of it is up the the music and introduction of each, which is interesting to see. Much like how KA Meta is kind of a mess but understanding the vibe of fighting a certain type of character does a lot to fill in the blanks.

I am always so thankful for KSSU adding Drop Stars to more of Meta Knight's attacks - clearing The Arena without a copy ability in the original KSS (barring the Heart of Nova fight) is damn near impossible because of this fucking masked blueberry. Also, I find it funny how when Galacta Knight jumps up to reach the ceiling, he makes an impact noise when he lands, despite never touching the floor.
