How to S-Rank King Dice | Cuphead

[@auroracorps5533]

The hardest boss in this entire fight for me is hitting the rotating dice correctly in between bosses...

[@JustoAllDay]

Amen!

[@caslaBBalsac]

It's a LITTLE easier if you consider that, since it can't damage you, you can just keep jumping and stay airborne over it until you get your number. Small window, so it only helps so much, but it does help.

[@Obsrange5176]

@@caslaBBalsac tip: Pause the game as soon as you see the dots you want to land on. Let's say I want to go forward by two, I pause the game as soon as the 2 comes into view, then resume then jump then parry. It works almost everytime for me and made the fight so much easier knowing I had easy control over the dice. Keep in mind make it a long jump after resuming not a short jump. Hope this helps

I do have to agree with you on Mr. Chimes. His level is such a pain in the ass!

[@JustoAllDay]

Right? I usually just reset if I get him!

[@SlebenGates]

I think it is worth mentioning that for the final King Dice phase if you don't feel comfortable with Dashing in the 5 card interval you can just Normal Jump and use an EX, that will grant you a moment suspended in the air so you can just fall and Parry the next card. (Of course I recommend not to Equip Specials for this round) And the only thing missing in this tutorial (I think) is to emphasize on "GET BETTER WITH THE DICE ROLLING" Regards!

[@wandertrico9043]

Dodging King Dice's cards was hardest for me. I liked to use the invincible super so I don't have to worry about that. You can also completely avoid parrying his cards by going to the far end of the screen. example... at 7:42 King dice puts down his left hand and cards come out. If you go to the far right of the screen before he puts down his left hand, you're completely safe. He alternates between hands, so it's mostly predictable. But sometimes he mixes it up and switches hands, and that's when I use the invincible super.

[@JustoAllDay]

Very interesting! I always wondered the best way to get into that safe spot!

Hi just wanted to say king dice s rank was the last thing I had to do before I 200% cuphead and this really helped. It took me 3 hours to beat this guy but it was worth it. Thanks so much :D

[@laziness_in_a_nutshell3767]

This video makes me feel good about my skill in cuphead cuz I got an S-rank on King Dice accidentally while trying to get the "Beating the devil at his own game" achievement 😂

[@bumble_bbgun]

There’s a cheat to King Dice’s Fight. If you use your ex just slightly before he dances his hand and lets out his cards. He will be stuck in the glove dancing animation with no cards coming out which will allow you to beat him easily. It was the only way I was able to S Rank him.

[@misticaldreams]

THANK YOU SO MUCH MAN for providing requirements at the beginning. I was struggling so much doing a no hit and had over a dozen tries to just get behind his arm AND YES FINALLY DID NO HIT-- A-? what. how. why. what did i do wrong. and now i learned that i don't have to make no hit which was SO MUCH RELIEVE bcs i sucked at the card attack. but i did it!! S rank now and no hit then, so i'm still satisfied with the result

You can actually duck to avoid getting hit by the skulls! (Expert mode only.)

[@Amerceus]

What's really weird for me is that I accidentally S-Ranked king dice on expert mode. I used the twin hearts charm and the bosses that I chose where Tipsy Troop, Skeletal Horse and 8-Ball. I reached the main fight with 4 health left and I got hit once but I made it through and got an s rank.

[@eclipse_antx7937]

In king dice you can simply go behind his hand and switch every time when he uses the cards

[@kfields4980]

Back at late August, when I was playing the game, I actually fought King Dice, and it actually didn't take long for me to take him down.

[@dylanrains5838]

If you're like me and you cannot parry off the cards to save your life, you can hide behind his hand if you stay to the far left or right of the screen. Sometimes it's 50/50 whether he alternates sides, but it usually works. To speed things up, I also usually don't use my super on the last miniboss so I can save it for him.

[@1x.1001]

He said that when you get to king dice and you have 3 hearts you might as well give up but when I beat him for the first time I got the rolling sixes achievement

Oh and, I recommend having a Super at the beginning of Phear Lap, I haven't beaten King Dice, but on Regular it makes him so much easier, might help S-ranking too, but hey, what do I know? P.S: If you want to get a 1, parry the dice while it's still inside his hands, worked every time for me

I know this is old but some tips that I learn from other people (keep in mind that I haven't S Ranked Dice but still) If you die and King Dice's hand is on the left, when you get to him again see if his hand'll be on the right (same goes if it's right and like 90% of the time it'll work you can prove me wrong) Also count to 7 and went you count to seven stay behind the left or right hand (if you mess up that's fine)

[@jammypammer1986]

This is just me but for king dice i go to the very end of one side because there is a 50% chance his hand goes on your side and your safe in the little gap between the wall and his hand, then i go to the other side and rinse and repeat. Sometimes he just does the same side twice but he only ever does it once or twice when I'm fighting him

[@bren4409]

So I may have ended up S-Ranking King Dice "by accident." And what I mean by that is that I was just trying to beat him on Expert for the "Beat the Devil at his own game" achievement, and in the process, pulled off an S-Rank when I wasn't even trying to.

[@Potatoes-nr2ln]

4:35 "this magic jumgos will fucking abliterate your balls"😭😭😭😭💀💀💀💀

[@Realityoftenhurts]

Mr Chimes is actually extremely easy. You can't pause when the cards are visible. So what I do is i grab my phone, take a picture and flip the cards accordingly. This way I won't get it wrong, and he won't move fast. Whenever he hits a wall, go in the direction of the wall he's about to hit, because its like a dvd logo. It bounces around like that. The worst part of this boss is his health. Probably has more health than king dice himself. But his "attacks" are very easy to avoid. Whenever he does an attack just shrink and move away to the opposite direction of him. And boom. Avoided.

[@ctmrvids2169]

No joke, king dice took me six whole months to finally beat it, once I got start over 8 times in a row lol.

[@TdwtK]

I use Roundabout and Spread with Smoke Bomb and Super 1. I usually go for the spaces with hearts on them, but I usually never go on Mr. Chimes, but I almost got a run but I went overtime. And if you're having trouble with King Dice, you can camp behind his arms, but usually this wastes time.

My suggestion is charge and chaser with smoke bomb, the plots are 2,6/4,8. I suggest one spare extra heart at the end with the super 2.

[@rrtkddigimon0]

Here is a thing... For me, the horse race had trees on the foreground, which ranged from a line to 60% of the screen. So even though his attacks feel as telegraphed as Mangosteen... You have to keep track of several moving objects at the same time, there are point when you need to know where a whole bunch of stuff was headed without actually seeing it, and you probably need to move WHILE you can't see yourself, trying to dodge a whole mountain of shit. And yet I prefer him over that fucking rabbit. Because the attack that covers the screen except for the ONE heart that you can parry, to me, is like cancer of aids. He's not worse than the "monkey see monkey doom," but to me he's a really close one.

[@egon3705]
