Panda King was the easiest for me since I could easily attack him and dodge everything he threw at me at the same time, while Clock-La was the hardest due to the missiles and rings distracting me from concentrating on preventing the laser from dealing massive damage.

[@ashterrifictales7317]

I was gonna say the exact same thing!!! 💯👏

[@walkman132]

I was surprised panda king wasn't last. Since the camera centers on him, you can hold forward left and spam jump and attack. You can literally beat him blindfolded.

[@KinamOfMyth]

Wanna really have fun with the Rajan fight? Knock out a minion, pick them up, throw them at Rajan, pick him up, throw him into the fence.

[@JamesonMusic808]

Kingdom hearts, AND sly cooper? My two childhood favorites all on one channel. Truly a Merry Christmas!!!

[@yourboysnowden6896]

Whenever I replay Sly 2 and the Clock-La fight happens. I say in my head “get up on the clock-la’s back!”

[@Panda_Bair]

I always thought Tsao was the hardest boss, but I recently learned u can just perma lock him by push attacking him and kill him in like 20 seconds haha

[@afonsotroia2698]

i discover that shit the last time i played the game as well and used it to kill mr m at the end as well

[@ironwraith852]

Merry Christmas, Albino. You’re truly the gift that keeps on giving.

[@DearSis]

I always assumed Bentley's legs were NOTICIBLY smaller in Sly 3 because of muscle atrophy.

[@callum9509]

The reason Panda king was easy is because he was originally planned to be the first boss. But due to the requirements of the pole jump, I think the rail grind and the invisibility ability to get the keys to get to him, he and Raleigh swapped places. Also the "Homing Chop" is called the "Booming Chop."

[@garrhettroebuck8402]

Man, that Grizz fight always gave me trouble. Also, Clockwerk was really tough as a kid but when you figure out you can spire jump on the blue diamonds that shoot out the ground lazers on the final phase it makes that section way easier.

[@howlingarmadillo]

10:15 I can confirm that is an armadillo thing. We just do that sometimes.

[@coopercane500]

Best Christmas gift this year. Hands down.

[@JamesonMusic808]

I’d say panda king, mz Ruby, Raleigh, and Tsao were the easiest and honestly most fun to play. Dr. M’s fight makes me want to throw my controller out the window. Also, solid Bentley impression at the end

[@cryguy0000]

Dr M and Tsao get significantly easier if you spam the level 1 push

[@myagi20000]

on PS2 Mz Ruby is easy but on Vita/PS3 shes somewhat harder

[@lance499]

@@myagi20000 i heard PS3 Mz Ruby is off-beat because the graphics got updated but not the music track

[@TheCikoni]

Great video! Honestly the order dosen't matter to much as most Sly bosses are easy but I can definitly agree with your top picks, love the Sly series heres hoping more is in the future for it! and hopefully a retcon of penelopes character while were at it

[@trueblueryu5713]

Always happy to see this series get some respect! Free Sly from Egypt!

[@charKT-7461]

Mz. Ruby's fight is the easiest in my opinion, because you can just button-mash and avoid having to time anything. Anyways, I have a bad habit of making fights unnecessarily difficult for myself, because I tend to forget important strategies or gimmicks. For example, I didn't know you could walk on the lasers in Dr. M's fight, to avoid the elemental balls, even though you literally just learned to do that in the ancestral gauntlet. And I also forgot you were able to slow down time in Mrs. Decibel's fight, so I beat it without slowing down time the first time I played

[@kni9ght]

Best present all day

[@nixuniverse5240]

Apparently the Mask (or at least the spirit controlling it) is the Guru’s brother who he had to seal away inside of the mask after they fought, and it was that fight that drove the Guru to pursue a life of pacifism. I could have some details mixed up but why none of that was in the games I don’t know. Maybe it was in the comics ?

[@NotSoCheezyYT]

The Guru doesn't even appear in the comics.

[@RonaldReagansTickleMonster]

The thing I like about sly cooper is the challenge. I've been playing it since 2004, and I'll go back and still face a bit of challenge trying to do some things/bosses here and there and I love it cause it makes the play throughs that much more fun.

[@michaelgarner4423]

What funnier is that sucker punch are the same people who made the infamous games and ghost of Tsushima and also the voice actress of Carmelita in the second game also voiced neyla/clockla

[@RealElTaco]

I never get the ms. Ruby fight thing cause i always nail it first try and Im playing on the remastered version. I could probably do it blindfolded too

[@xToxic22]

Thanks for the video on Christmas, Albino! Especially on one of my favorite childhood franchises!

[@XVI__YT]

Brooo I loved sly, I wanna play it again

[@retrogaming5743]

.... Dammit you're not wrong about Sir Raleigh but.... my Crash Bandicoot love is showing there

[@Llightningiscool]

The clock-la boss fight can be pretty difficult if you don't know what you are doing. I am surprised the panda king was ranked above her.

[@JAYDOG1337A]

If you use Triangle Circle (Push Attack) on Tsao then it trivializes his fight, like sometimes he doesn't even get the chance to use his powers.

[@charKT-7461]

You can also do a stealth takedown on him in some specific scenarios, which kills him instantly and it’s also hilarious

[@venomgaming7014]

Fun fact: as of now, le paradox is the last sly cooper boss in the series. Technically meaning le paradox is THE final boss.

[@mrwalrus1150]

Lefwey was the hardest fight ever when I was a kid I swear to god he beat my ass

[@hav0cfanat1c]

Yay I found you from the Bloodborne boss ranking! These are always my favorite.

[@e.m.m.i6054]

3:35 booming chop is actually what he says

[@AkiraDragonborne]

I heard Booming CHOP from the Panda King. Not homing. His whole fighting style, Flame Fu, was based off his fireworks fire and explosions.

[@FilthyFrankenjoyer]

This saga was my childhood and I didn't formatted into a furry. Hard to believe only 20% survived the temptation.

[@koenyboy500]

You better believe it! OwO

@@koenyboy500 I think the amount of players attracted to Carmelita is higher than expected, that's what I believe😂

Merry christmas happy holiday

[@SpiritusVulpis]

I think this is the only list I've actively disagreed with selections of placements (which is saying something considering I thoroughly enjoy Kingdom Hearts more than Sly and you've done a list on quite a few of the KH games)

[@slycoopervaultmaster1256]

Which ones do you disagree with?

[@SpiritusVulpis]

@@slycoopervaultmaster1256 Honestly not many, the only primary one that stuck out like a sore thumb that I can think of without having to re-watch the whole thing would be Muggshot since even as a kid (back when I literally had to get my older brother to finish certain missions for me I was that bad) I never failed Muggshot unless it was a genuine mistake because its just simple timing and he literally says in his KH2 and KH2 Data Bosses rankings that he has good timing so for Muggshot being a much more simplistic boss for a much more simplistic game is a bit strange to be so high on the list

[@slycoopervaultmaster1256]

@@SpiritusVulpis Mugshot can be pretty tricky at times, especially if you're not being alert. But yeah he's not that bad.

[@NinyaBOT]

What sucks about Penelope's retcon in Sly 4 is the fact that after it happened, they immediately just dropped her for the rest of the game, like, shes gone now pretty much and for really no reason, the Black Knight could have been its whole own character and really nothing would be different

[@AL-31]

If you stream these on PlayStation Plus Premium, the crocodile is the hardest and will make you want to smash your controller. Lag will randomly happen and you’ll fail and have to start over like 100 times

[@sethp26]

Mz.Ruby is the easiest. Legit did it blindfolded

[@thewilsonestwilson8533]

Well she does telegraph every single one of her attacks during the Rhythm sections with a specific sound for every button soooooo.

[@bazplayzyt6207]

Do you think you could do one for the infamous franchise?

[@afonsotroia2698]

the whole last sly 3 lvl as some hard as fuck missions tbh never played or watched sly 4 but of the 3 ps2 games its by far the hardest lvl

[@sonicinajarvauntedspeciali7245]

I know you did not just put Dr. M at #1 💀 Clockwerk takes the robotic cake as the hardest boss. The entire level in itself is a boss fight. Unless you're using emulator save states, or memorize where every obstacle's hitbox is, its incredibly tedious. Especially the first part where the van is fixed to only move forwards. Along with that, the camera controls are pretty janky so if you spend more than a few seconds focusing on anything else other than those damn road bombs, the camera cant move downwards fast enough at a good angle to clear the path and youre instantly dead

[@PirateKingBoros]

AYO A BOSS RANKING

[@KakarotOwns]

#23 is meant to be the easiest? I actually failed that quite a lot before doing it, i'm trash at Sly despite getting the platinum on the trilogy 😂

[@zephon6745]

I always hated Clock La because of her first stage.

[@mewow483]

if they ever remake these games or make a sly 5 they should make the bosses and enemies a lot harder

[@mrjellyfish6406]

I honestly would've put the Contessa much lower. I got hypnotized three times in a row and didn't get hit once during the whole fight. Also her basic attacks are super easy to dodge.

[@vinceargado9892]
