Ranking Every Elemental Gate In Skylanders From Worst to Best

Today we spend a concerning amount of time ranking elemental gates.

[@kryptkrusher]

I'm pretty sure I haven't missed any gates out but feel free to call me a failure if you find any

7:01 the placement of the hat and the cash in that gate do kinde make sence. Because for golden queen it's all about the gold. And she doesn't give a heck about the hat in that gate. So she is' protecting' the gold with a tedious (for the player useless) block push puzzle. In the hope we wouldn't complete it. And the hat just nexr to it. Because it's worthless for her

[@kryptkrusher]

Wow yeah I never thought about that but that would make a lot of sense

[@taylorkreate]

I honestly loved the elemental gates, they gave you a reason to break up your play style and change characters every once in a while each level. I was kind of sad to see them go away in superchargers

[@allenelijah7063]

Well, they were kind of in there. They were the Supercharger Rift Portals or something like that, where you needed a Supercharger to put the portal back together to go through it. Then when you were inside, it was like an elemental zone i.e. in Cloud Kingdom, there was a Tech one with a platforming section across gears with lightning balls, obstructive clouds, and enemies. The problem with these gates I guess is that they don't require a Skylander of that element to unlock them; they only require a Supercharger, but they are still kind of Elemental Gates.

[@nebbybrush9988]

[@aeyenthelobster4858]

the water gate from aerial attack gives off a sort of eerie feeling, since you get a somewhat normal water island mixed in with an ominous green sky, I feel like it fits well with the theme of the mysterious ghost ship

[@szymonlewandowski9690]

Aerial attack is my favourite giants level. It was the most challenging level before you get to Kaos

[@ShatteredShqrd]

That is my favorite gate

[@cryptorborgjulien902]

I personally like the lore of the water gate that is given in the strategy guide. Apparently the ghost pirates took a fish called the "Stay-at-home fish" or something like that, which takes its home with it wherever it goes. It's an interesting little tidbit that is just one of many pieces of lore that only people who buy the strategy guides can view.

[@SkylanderGamerTV]

Well I got the next hour sorted out for me

[@SpiltMySquash]

[@TheFoxFromSplashMountain]

I love elemental gates. I mean, yes, they are just an excuse to encourage you to buy more figures, (even a TFB team member admitted this in a dev commentary), but they're fun and also encourage you to explore and collect stuff, adding replay value to the game.

[@ComingCleanGaming]

Wow, this is really ambitious! Great video as always, you seem to never run out of original ideas.

[@spiritmanderthecharmander5666]

54 minutes!? DANGGGG you've been working hard.

[@thunderstone6096]

This makes me realise I wasn't really missing much by having only two trap masters and being unable to access most of the gates

[@DragominThePainter]

Ah gates, the longing to see what's behind them, yet the loss of my allowance each and every time.

[@Zcrub]

Talking about that Molekin Mine gate, I managed to get through it easily simply using Prism Break's energy beam to destroy the crystals

[@kryptkrusher]

If only I knew...

[@cameronskellams5670]

Nah don't think u missed any good job for taking the time to analyse each and every one of the gates :)

48:31 am i the only one who is just like those are literly enderpearls from minecraft

[@kryptkrusher]

I did notice that

[@ry0kugyu]

fun fact: the undead battlefield gate made me tilt so much that i unplugged the control by yanking it (i use wired) and my xbox fell when i did that (as in it was dangling, only saved by cords) and i put it back up, checked the disc and it was scratched to bits. i kept going with the game, 3-staring crawling catacombs and cadaverous crypt, until it wouldnt load creepy citadel. so the undead gate was literally the reason i couldnt finish ssa

[@kryptkrusher]

Truly an evil gate.

[@bigshaqexegaming5748]

52:37: Whenever I play this gate I hear Gangsters Paradise. That is because my mom was listening to it in the other room when I first played it. Kinda funny.

Yeah that's a nice detail that I only picked up on when making this video.

[@agentblackbird9435]

11:45 I always interpreted the water that shoots you up as heated water, so you'd be launched by geysers. 12:22 Weapon Master says it was a sacred spring that people took rests in. Maybe that’s why it doesn’t have enemies for that reaosn

Aerial attack air gate gave me Goosebumps when first playing it, even now too especially if you time the music right to when you basically Super jump!, its soo epic

[@vilgotrehback3981]

Either I didnt pay Good enough atention, either i had a game that bugged or you forgot to mention that the life gate in ssa c2 is compleatly hidden and just randomly apears when you have a life skylander in the right spot. Did you mention that gate at all?

[@GNVS300]

The Air gate in Aerial Attack WOULD be one of my favourite gates, because it's the only one in Giants that is more than 10 seconds long, and I absolutely love the Air gate music, but... there's a glitch on the Wii version where you can get stuck in the clouds, forcing you to restart the level. Also it kind of sucks having two REALLY long elemental gates in the same level as you end up spending most of the level in them (plus I think there's only like two collectibles in the whole level NOT in the gates). I'm kind of biased against the Tech one in SVOS because I only found it on my fourth time playing the level but the first time I got stuck and had to restart because I didn't realise you could (and I think have to) walk around one of the clockwork walls (and I can't remember if you have any enemies there, which is kind of a deal-maker for me). I much prefer the big one in Molekin Mountain, because it feels less repetitive and I think it's the only gate in the game that is essentially part of the level progression (in other words, using this gate means you get to skip a part of the level as you go right through it rather than it being a dead end). I would have put the Undead gate in Rumbletown higher because of the Skystones game and because it's the only gate with two exits. I also would have raised the Earth gate in Bringing Order to Kaos as Crystal Golems are always fun to fight.
