NO HIT Spamton NEO (SnowGrave / TRUE Genocide) | Deltarune

looks like there was another spamton hiding in the bushes for me. This fight is pretty similar to the normal version but there are a few key differences, for one, you're alone, and two, he has more difficult patterns later on. you don't see much of those patterns here since I killed him relatively quick, so the fight was more or less pretty similar. the REAL challenge is doing the whole thing without X-Slash, you have to fight for almost twice as long and you're stuck with those stinky upgraded patterns for a long time. I'll get it done but I don't know how long it'll take.

Spamton is such a refreshing character. He's not fighting you because he's heroic, he's fighting you because your evil plans are interfering with _his_ evil plans.

[@Debater]

It's the classic scenario of two villains working together before one inevitably double-crosses the other. He helped the player with their slaughter so he could get into the mansion, Kris sealing the fountain was *not* part of the deal.

Spamton clearly knows more than he lets on. Why would he sell you the Thorn Ring, a ring made SPECIFICALLY so its easier for Noelle to use the IceShock (and later, SnowGrave) spell, only to try and stop you later on? I think one possible theory lies in what is basically his catchphrase: *Big Shot.* I think by making it easier for you, the player, to commit genocide by using Noelle as a proxy to do so by freezing everything (and killing Berdley with SnowGrave), he can eventually take over the castle. He can be known as the one who defeated not just Queen, but also the person who is supposedly freezing and killing all the others. He's looking for his own chance to be a *big shot* and you're that chance. Which is why he challenges you alone. He can defeat you, take the ring, and basically claim he brought an end to the evils. He didn't expect you to be tough on your own, nor did he expect Noelle to actually be listening at the end to use SnowGrave. He's so far gone he's willing to enable you to take as far as you can go with a Genocide route for his own 15 minutes of fame, but little does he know how his actions have drastically changed the story.

5:57 To me, the reason why Spamton sounds so utterly enraged is because he KNOWS what it feels like to have and lose friends, so even though he isn't interested in friendship anymore, he still has an understanding of how important someone's trust is. Which is why he gets so furious, he knows that "Kris"(It's basically The Player, but Spamton doesn't know that) has taken Noelle's trust and abused it to hell and back, utterly destroying her mentally and emotionally; and even after all that, "Kris" still has the audacity to call for help from the friendships they destroyed, which makes Spamton sick.

I just realized something about snow grave , this is the only route where spamton dosent ask you to find the empty disk for him. Now why would that be ? Well simple because in snow grave there's nothing stopping him from doing it himself, Noelle froze most of the enemies , in other words any opposition to spamton sneaking into the castle and becoming neo by himself has been removed. Allowing him to take over without any opposition as you removed it.

Yes, they somehow realized they're characters in a game, and no matter what they or us do, the ending never changes. An interesting fact is that during the last battle of the Weird Route, Spamton says this: "YOU THINK MAKING [Frozen Chicken] WITH YOUR [Side Chick] IT'S GONNA LET YOU DRINK UP THAT [Sweet, Sweet][Freedom Sauce]? WELL YOU'RE [$!$!] RIGHT!" I think Spamton is speaking directly to the player here. In order to feel free, we need to feel like our choices are capable of changing the course of the story, that's why we felt the urge to complete this route on the first place, but at the cost of totally messing up Noelle and Berdly, we neglected the way the game was supposed to be, we pushed the limits of it and threw away a happy ending just to feel free. I read a comment of someone saying that this route feels like an error, a glitch, like something that's not supposed to happen, and I believe they are on point on that.

And yes, we really made noelle a monster in this route, didn't we? We can even see how she dealed over 2k damage to spamton when kris was just deal 5 to 10 damage to him (with his towered defence)

[@Debater]

And here's the real kicker: Noelle could kill you. Noelle could very easily kill you any time she wants. If she ever turned her power on you, you'd be obliterated in an instant. Yet she won't.

[@Aleja_-bb7hi]

Just dropping this: After Bredly Last Fight, Noelle doesn't want to do ANYTHING of this. But, she will, not because she wants to be stronger, is because that damn ring (The ThornRing) is forcing her to do so. The rings has the side effect TRANCE, meaning that, well, Noelle, is being forced to do anything we want her to do, probably meaning that this alternate route will play a bigger rol in futures chapter (maybe even changing the ending, perhaps?...... oh, right, deltarune will just have "1....ending?...." right?)

[@Rhino1004]

I think the Trance passive is the effect that cuts TP use in half. Meanwhile, the real reason why Noelle listens to Genocide Kris no matter what is because... well, she's simply just a terrified little pushover. On Pacifist, she even says that she feels like Pacifist Kris is 'the only person she feels she can say "no" to.' She's just an emotionally-vulnerable fawn. Genocide route exploits that.

[@Aleja_-bb7hi]

@@Rhino1004 i get you, but no, the genocide route exploits Noelle UNTIL the berdly fight happens, after that, all the choices of Noelle are being controlled by us. Not because she can't say no to kris, is because she is forced to do it. as an example of this, after the first "phase" of Spamton Neo in the alternate route, when we call our friends, Kris calls both, Ralsei and Susie, but when we are calling Noelle, the game says YOU whispered Noelle for help. and, she doesn't even think twice and did the deal, killing Spamton in 1 hit. Yes, Noelle is traumatized, but this doesn't influence her actions. it was not Kris who called for help, it was YOU, as the player, who called for help, and is YOU, who put the ThornsRing with the trance effect to make her do Snowgrave. she is being controlled now, by the player, not kris, by Us

[@Rhino1004]

@@Aleja_-bb7hi The main hole with this theory is that Noelle actively resists trying to cast SnowGrave, even with ThornRing equipped. After the player breaks through that last piece of resistance and kills Berdley, that primarily suggests that she's been deeply traumatized into a dependent relationship, rather than "oh look, the ring is working on her now." Nah. Her submission is entirely because of the player abusing Noelle, from start to finish. Explaining everything as "magic did it!" is a lazy theory, anyways.

[@Aleja_-bb7hi]

@@Rhino1004 i get your point. altought i think the ring has some fault in noelle's Actions. to me, it seems that she was trying to resist this control over her, but, in the end, because of how we abuse of her, she ended having 0 control of her actions, and now, she is our "Peon". maybe the ring didn't fully make her to obey us, but i think it was the last step, at least. btw, ik that "magic did it" it's kinda lazy, but, it's deltarune. the fact that she is being forced to do it because of the ring may be true, or may be not. it's like the theory about gaster being the one behind Jevil and Spamton. it's lazy to not think anything more because, well, all the proofs we have points to gaster. but not because is "lazy", means that the theory may not be true. after all, some answers may be in front of our eyes, but we refuse to see it. my point is, yeah, is lazy, but not because is lazy means that it cannot be true

[@GDNashit]

I encountered this guy first before the pacifist one, in fact, i haven't played the pacifist one yet This one took me about an hour and in the last attack I survived with 4HP, is the pacifist fight that much easier?

[@lefthandedscout9923]

In the basement, you get to face him with your whole team. His damage stays the same. This means one mistake causing you to get hit maybe 3 times in the snowgrave run will get you killed instantly, while in regular it'll likely just hit 3 different people and force you to use a Clubs Sandwich. Oh yeah, and speaking of items...your choice of healing items is far better on regular - you can grab the teas for 120 heals or the Butler Wine for 100 heals, and you can use ReviveMints to get fallen characters back up at full health instantly. Compare that to Snowgrave, where the shops being shut means you could come in with one TopCake from Chapter 1, and otherwise your best healing items are the 80 HP CD Bagels. This means getting hit can lead to you losing tempo and getting stuck healing for several rounds in a row. Your available armors are also greatly diminished as well, though this means less as you only need to fill up 2 armor slots for Kris, and if you were careful and took the RoyalPin from Noelle before she left the team, that plus the Jevilstail from Chapter 1 makes your best armor items for the fight in terms of stats. Of course, the watch and the Pink Ribbon are also great, so you should consider those as well, but I'd say those existing makes the basement fight easier, as having them on only 1 party member will compromise your stats of 1 of your 3 characters while giving the full benefits to everyone in the team, while your equipment slots are a lot more precious when it's only you in the fight. You also get access to the special magics Supercharge and FluffBarrier, the former making your next 20 charge shots charge almost instantly, and the latter giving you 2 spinning barriers that can block 1 bullet each. The only saving grace is that Kris has increased attack power in this fight solo - but if you have the Ragger2 which makes Ralsei as strong as Kris as an attacker and Susie's autoaxe (or even the Devil's Knife from chapter 1) attacking will end up depleting Spamton's HP far faster with a full team, especially if you start taking into account having 3 people attacking generates TP far faster, letting you throw out many RudeBusters compared to the relatively low amount of Cross Slashes you'll get to use from natural TP generation for Kris solo. At least timing the swings for 1 character is easier than doing it for 3, I guess? Other than that, your HP might be a factor - Kris has to have 158 HP minimum for the Snowgrave version of the fight, but will probably be at 160. If you went full pacifist, your team will have 120, 140, 100 as their HP values for the basement version of the fight. However, I'm not counting this, because you can freely FIGHT through the whole game and get to 160 180 140 HP on your team and fight him with that setup in the basement.

[@GDNashit]

@@lefthandedscout9923 Nice! Seems like I had the lowest stats possible, 158 HP, shit armor (I was doing snowgrave blind run, yknow, for the story) No save file from Ch 1 and an average weapon The way I beat him was applying Geometry Dash logic and firstly mechanizing every one of his attacks in order to do a no-hit run of sorts so I could focus on gaining TP In my first turn I'd just use my TensionBit and onwards I'd use ONLY X-Slashes, if i didn't have enough TP for one I'd defend to have enough next turn Even this way I didn't guarantee victory since there were attacks later down the fight I hadn't mechanized Eventually I learned which attacks were coming before I ended my turn, there's a clear pattern if you attack every turn, so if I knew an attack that I couldn't survive was coming, I'd defend to take less damage Even then I wasted the least amount of turns doing anything that isn't an X-Slash, so by the end of the fight my inventory still had plenty of CD Bagels since I just used them at the last stretch to survive the attacks I didn't learn I came up with this on the spot and...

[@blank_home1229]

this makes me think that noelle will have a role in chapter 3 genocide. if we, as the SOUL controlling kris can whisper noelle's name and have them run towards us, it's very possible that we managed to get in her head, and can effectively turn them into a puppet. we know that her genocidal tendencies didnt dissapear when she left the dark world cause she tries using iceshock on the ice palace if you visit her in the snowgrave route at the hospital. combine that with us as the players talking to her (from us giving a response to her thinking to herself) you have a pretty good chance she'll make a return eventually. they wouldnt build all that up just for it to end, after all side note, susie and ralsei also get stronger when killing so it's possible they too could turn to liking it.

I was actually confused to see Spamton's desperation move at first, I had Kris equipped with a the Iron Shakle and was dealing high damage to him, so I ended up lowering him enough before he could ever get a chance to use it. I never fought Neo in a normal route and did the Snowgrave route first, didn't even know you could fight him with Ralsei and Susie.

[@angrycinnabon2956]

It's pretty easy to bypass his desperation move in a snowgrave run as it's only performed at a certain HP threshold (like 20% or lower I think) ; one that X-Slash or even a properly timed normal attack can get through. Not to mention that Spamton's defense is literally -27 in snowgrave.

[@Some_Fucker]

I still like how when you choose to call out the names it says kris called out for help but nobody came until You whispered Noelle’s name It wasn’t kris and I really like that

I love how this has some sounds of boss fights and other music in undertale and maybe some deltarune (ex: undyne in genocide I think, napstablook, jevil, probably more) and at some points has mechanics like mettatons fight

_Spamton should’ve upgraded his SP DEF instead of his regular DEF at the end_

[@aydenjacko5810]

Wait is this real? I have only done the pacifist version, but I thought you defeat him in the genocide version in the basement the same

[@sandsunderthetable.6625]

Yes it is

[@pottern2296]

There's 3 ways to fight him. 2 in the basement where you can cut his strings or dzpletes his hp. And 1 at the fontain if you did a "genocide" with Noelle

[@timothyt666]

It can be the same but the main thing is that once Noelle joins you you should go back to the trash zone and interact with spamton's door. this video is much better at explaining, kzbin.info/www/bejne/qHqpq5aoeddofNU

Snowgrave route

[@sarafontanini7051]

there are basically three routes in this game: spare all the enemies, fight the enemies or go through a more complicated series of decisiosn that leads to noelle murdering berdley and Queen being overthrown as Spamton takes over the cyber world

[@McYum.]

So, I read something about the snow grave route and it talks about how there are 6 children in the class (excluding Kris and Susie) and how there are 7 chapters in Deltarune. 1st chapter, nothing happens, 2nd chapter, snowgrave route basically kills Berdly, leaving 5 children, and 5 chapters remaining. We all know where the snowgrave route is going.

[@CHARLIE-vv9bq]

[@InfernalManThing]

Class genocide route

[@guillermoveraortiz4519]

Noelle was in the class too... *I feel like I know who is our next target*

[@unculturedswine7490]

Bro only Toby can make a joke character like Spamton into this whole different beast that was the bringer of justice in the genocide run. Okay so the bringer of justice part was a bit stupid, it's just a dude trying to make it so YOU don't mess up HIS reign. It's a 1:1 relationship honestly, both of you see the other as an obstacle.

[@SirMexicanYCP]

I would not exactly call him a bringer of justice. He also to some degree manipulated you into bringing destruction by granting you access to the Thorn ring. This, however, still is in character for Spamton, as he still is a big shot, and is relying on your killing spree in order to raise in power. Of course, his gambling did not pay off at the end as Noelle just turned him into frozen spam.

[@googlymoogleson1418]

I'm sick of these comments making Spamton out to be the "hero" of Snowgrave, he literally sold you the ring knowing full well you'd use it for evil, this isn't Sans again.

[@unculturedswine7490]

@@googlymoogleson1418 Yeah, I made this post before knowing a little more about Snowgrave and Spamton NEO as a whole, he doesn't see you as an enemy more so an obstacle of his own, like how he is to you. It's a balanced viewpoint imo, just different motives.

[@isimyok960]

You know, his main goal was try to prevent againist seal of fountain. He really doesn't care about what you did the other characters. He didn't tried to be hero.

[@midgarchannel436]

It's cool to have a genocide fight where you're not fighting someone who is trying to stop your bad actions, but instead fighting someone who is acting for their own self interests. Two villains fighting to see who gets what is left. Lol, I guess they're both fighting to be a Big Shot.
