Welcome to SNK Boss Syndrome 3: Bullet Hell. A sequel of SNK Boss Syndrome 2: Igniz Electric Bugaloo and SNK Boss Syndrome: Goenitz go WOOSH. EDIT: I forgot about Goenitz. I deserve his lashes.

[@gfkgrgrkm]

this game needs to have a port, glad you used a grappler, I'm a grappler player myself😁

[@PikangsFutaba]

Well, more like a current gen. platform port, because you could get it back in the day on OG Xbox and Ps2 (the Ps2 version had some of the NeoGeo Battle Coliseum characters as unlockables like Tung Fu Rue, Hotaru, Geese, Mr. BIG and KOF NESTS Saga Kyo, along with the timed unlockables from the Arcade and the bosses... also, speaking of the Ps2 version, it's a shame Sony didn't bother to release the emulated Ps2 version of the game on Ps4/Ps5 at least, leaving that with the not much needed KOF Orochi Saga collection).

[@Jeffmetal42]

By far one of the most brutal KoF bosses.

[@terryforever84]

Not really, he is very easy only. Once he knock down, just roll to his back when he awake, he will do that purple skill. But u roll, timing right, will at his back, then just combo him. Repeat till he dead. That's why he is the easy boss 😂

[@xGunbladeKnightx]

Yeah right, easy is but to beat Igniz with Kula's sweep, Rugal 98 with Yuri's super knuckles and Goenitz with grabs, you don't need roll or do combos xDD

[@terryforever84]

@@xGunbladeKnightx sure. There is many way to beat them. But what if you didn't use Kula or those special characters that easy to win boss? Still some new trick to learn 😂😘👍

[@xGunbladeKnightx]

@@terryforever84 well, Rugal 98 with other characters you can jump back to get away from him and throw a kick or punch, he will probably make a G. Cutter, then you can go and hit him. Igniz has something similar to what you mentioned with Magaki, but jumping, he will do the antiair special move with his whip, then you hit him from behind, but you also have to have a lot of timing. And you can do a normal grab to Goenitz with any character after doing a normal jump to get close to him, maybe he will grab you before, but he doesn't do it many times.

Ohhhh Magaki is such a pain in the ass, I used to be able to beat him with Silver by timing the Flying kicks and LDM to go through the gaps. Never knew crossups with Clark were so effective against him. This kind of reminds me of how to cheese Zero in KoF2k.

Clark: You could not live with your own failure. And where did that bring you? To a grappler.

I hate Magaki. He pushes the SNK Boss Syndrome to the limit. I hate the invisible fart projectile he does, along with the pink shyt he fills the screen with. Even has a stupid ass super move on top of it. I beat him once after losing over 100 times and never have afterwards. Still, KOF XI is my fav KOF game. Great video as always, Justin.

Kof XI Mukai boss is insane I remember playing that boss on arcade running out of quarters. Then i was able to get the Playstation 2 version and it took me 20+ tries to beat him. Good for you you were able to beat him in shorter amount of tries.

[@abdielver69]

[@Catterjee]

You should try the boss for arcana heart 3 max. Good luck.

[@o_oro-q1k]

Underrated entry. I hope it gets a re-release with rollback someday. Also the first character is a "he".

[@BrklynBread]

I love these vids. It's the only time J Wong looks human. 🤣

[@tcchip]

Ah yes, Magaki is my most hated KOF boss ever. He's not necessarily the hardest (I still find 94 Rugal to be the worst), but he was deliberately designed to get on your nerves. On the other hand, Magaki also has the classiest theme of any KOF boss, and Shion is an amazing sub-boss that I hope will come back someday as a playable character. XI is definitely one of my favourites in the series.

[@StarDragonJP]

Yeah he definitely isn't the hardest, but probably is the most annoying

[@tcchip]

@@StarDragonJP he's basically a bullet hell boss from a shoot em up in a fighting game. 😂

[@Adantenshi]

i found Magaki way more difficult than 94 Rugal but it was mostly from me being able to time out Rugal

[@DevoteeofMamaRaikou]

As someone who has had to deal with Magaki, I can say for sure command grabs are his bane... if you can get close. Rolls are also an effective way to beat him albeit riskier.

[@TheRed971]

Justin you don't get to call him free when you're reduced to one character and had to fight him multiple times.

[@StarDragonJP]

Yeah I definitely like Shion, wish they would bring him back. Magaki is definitely one of the most bs SNK bosses ever.

I just noticed Justin was playing in arcade and not console setting for this boss, aka the mode where Magaki does way more damage with every move. Plus he didn't use any shift mechanics which are partway key into defeating Magaki to call in or out characters mid combo etc 👀

[@marcusverissimo5228]

"We're gonna beat this for the first time" Oh, Justin... You are in for a wild ride....

[@clsto7022]

7:26 you didn't even time him out this time but if you did, it would've been a huge achievement. It's almost impossible to get a timeout win against Magaki. Bosses in KOF XI have a ridiculous advantage when it comes to the timeout judgement system. If you look at the final successful fight, the judgement gauge (the rotating blue/red ring around the clock) never goes rotates left enough to go red. Every single hit the boss does sways the meter far to the right, while your own damage barely shifts it. Losing characters only worsens this problem.

[@clsto7022]

In fact, later on in the right, judgement is almost 100% to the right.

[@PikangsFutaba]

Yeah, getting a time over victory against the single fighters during an arcade mode run is a big achievement to be honest, the judgement system of the game in those fights is actually your worst enemy that you better think like you're fighting KI2/Gold Gargos or MVC3 Galactus on that regard (they always win when the time is over).
