I Ranked all 46 Bosses in Hollow Knight 

I've never worked so hard on one video before. My cringy edit program made this so hard to render omg😭If you enjoyed it, please consider sharing,liking or commenting it, I would greatly appreciate it and it helps me out a ton :) Hopefully you guys will like it 💜

The natural progression is to rank the 57 precepts

The soul master forcing you to cross the entire universe just to fight him again:

This was a master piece. "The fight only lasts ten seconds, but that doesn't mean I didn't enjoy those ten seconds."

miles: hates random attacks also miles: soul tyrant is no.2

You have redeemed yourself for the benches blunder

Pure Vessel legitimately made me doubt if I can actually beat them, as it really felt like my reflexes were too slow. Ultimately I did win after like 40+ tries, but fk me if it wasn't the hardest battle I've fought in a game. Also, that feeling you described of fighting Soul Tyrant's last phase without the "necessary" upgrades and on one mask left... That's relatable. Thank you for another video McNugget

your writing skills are absolutely outstanding for a creator of your size. despite the unpredictable jokes that never fail to surprise and entertain, the narrative is coherent and easy to follow. every word conveys love for this game (and hate for markoth). what couldve merely been the presentation of a simple list has become an interesting, thought out story in itself. I would not be surprised to see your name next to those "big hollow knight content creators" in just a few months. keep up the amazing work!

the hollow knight is probably my favourite boss fight of all time, i like pure vessel better in a raw gameplay perspective, but it's a masterclass in setting and storytelling

33:17 "you can't heal here" Shape of Unn users: "ima pretend I didn't hear that"

Dude this video is so smooth and exciting and feels like a breath of fresh air. Meaning it definitely took a part of your soul to create. Your sacrifice is appreciated.

You are the definition of an underrated RU-vidr. I absolutely love the editing style and jokes in your videos. Keep up the great work!

Thank you for taking Markoth and putting him in the deepest part of the well. He deserves it, we deserved more than random swords and that fkin void. Is the only boss that i dont have in radiance (+pure vessel, absolute radiance and nightmare grimm) but those doesnt counts because i have life outside videogames, naaah just kidding i have not, but OMG I don't want the little hair I have left to fall out

In case someone would like to see a specific boss critic here are the timestamps for each boss, I would hovewer strongly recommend watching the video in its entirety (meaning I did this for nothing but meh) #46 Markoth 1:44 #45 Nightmare King Grimm huh oops no, Winged Nosk 3:02 #44 Oblobbels 4:12 #43 No Eyes 4:57 #42 Marmu 5:47 #41 Vengefly King 6:09 #40 Gruz Mother 6:47 #39 Massive Moss Charger 7:06 #38 Flukemarm 7:50 #37 Soul Warrior 8:07 #36 Brooding Mawlek 8:32 #35 Eleder Hu 8:52 #34 Xero 9:20 #33 Gorb 9:45 #32 Galien 9:51 #31 Nosk 10:23 #30 Enraged Guardian 11:11 #29 God Tamer 11:47 #28 Traitor Lord 12:47 #27 Crystal Guardian 13:24 #26 Uumuu 13:56 #25 False Knight 14:38 #24 The Collector 15:16 #23 Troupe Master Grimm 15:44 #22 Broken Vessel 16:36 #21 Hive Knight 17:02 #20 The Hollow Knight 17:53 #19 The Radiance 18:55 #18 Gray Prince Zote 20:06 #17 Hornet Protector 20:56 #16 Dung Defender 21:36 #15 Great Nailsage Sly 22:18 #14 Paintmaster Sheo 23:04 #13 Watcher Knights 23:44 #12 White Defender 24:32 #11 Failed (W) Champion 25:18 Mile's objective TOP 10: #10 Lost Kin 26:41 #9 Hornet Sentinel 27:14 #8 Brothers Oro and Mato 27:58 #7 Mantis Lords 28:44 #6 Soul Master 29:30 #5 Absolute Radiance 30:41 #4 Sisters of Battle 32:33 #3 Nightmare King Grimm 33:46 #2 Soul Tyrant 35:15 #1 Zote the Mighty, gottem again, PURE VESSEL 36:58

THANK YOU for validating my love for soul master/tyrant, they’re seriously under-appreciated bosses.

The Markoth fight with the floor is REALLY EASY but without the floor it gets into the TOP 5 of the difficulty ranking, plus it gets less fun than before, his random pattern is annoying AF and the worst part is that I died at least as much time if not more time to the missing floor or by him suddenly changing direction and rushing his body against me than I died from his F***ING ATTACKS...

I was afraid when I saw NKG #45 so I was releaved when I saw Winged Nosk :D Amazing video mate, I love your editing style and your determination at keeping making huge videos well scripted like this one for your size as a content creator ! Keep the great work :)

About God Tamer, the fight remains relatively interesting with the rider dead, but if the rider existed without the beast her pattern would be identical to Toad Man's. I think the idea behind the fight is that the beast is the real boss, but the rider exists entirely to throw a wrench in the plan if you wanna rush down the beast since a ton of players will lose track of her, so a safer route would be to kill her first. As for lore-wise why the tamer goes down immediately once you kill the beast, I always assumed she had an attachment to the beast and thus breaks down in grief once you kill it.

Just like the pure vessel is the perfect boss I think this is the perfect hollow knight ranking video! I enjoyed every minute of it!!

Sisters of Battle is my TOP 1 without any doubt ! The fight is intense, neither too easy neither too difficult. The rythm is perfect, we can hit something almost all the time and must avoid something almost all the time. No RNG like Absolut Radiance. No weird hitbox like Pure Vessel. No loss of time like NKG when he becomes a fat ball. And ... that absolute perfect music !

Ever since completing PoP and discovering the fight, I've wished Pure Vessel was at the end (with a bench right before it of course). It would be such a perfect fit, and the Kingsmoulds feel so out of place at the end.

I’m rewatching this legendary video. So beautiful 🥹

Ooh, another MilesNugget video! As I binged all the others in 2 days, I bet this one will be awesome too!

Ngl, troupe master grimm is easily my favorite boss! It was one i lost quite a few times on in my first go around, but i was smiling and having fun through the whole fight! The music is amazing, the attacks are interesting and the right level of pressure when you first fight him!

Welldone on a fantastic video!! You are so freaking entertaining to listen to and watch your well crafted videos! Your humor is on point, and your editing is hilarious and super clever! Please keep posted, your helping the wait until silksong be so much more enjoyable!

this was such a great video. good job, really liked it and laughed a lot.

Heck yeahh !! banger video as alwayss

i always love finding small youtubers with actually good content and editing

You really outdone yourself man, this ranking video is amazing. MASSIVE W B)

Great video loved every single minute

You have such a fun energy, and I love your editing ❤

Nice video! I'm not a fan of soul tyrant personally but you put up a good case for it. I agree with you on the number 1 ranking. Liked and subbed

Your channel is extremely underrated and deserves more fame. I find your videos and humor really funny and practical because I how you put stuff in a casual perspective. I hope you absolutely pop off soon because you definitely deserve it. gl.

ive recently??? started watching your videos, and i gotta say i havent found myself AUDIBLY laughing at a youtube video in years i swear. your editing style and use of sound effects is immaculate, never change my guy

You're killing it bro... Loved the video... Awesome editing, great humor.. and I have to say .. I think your list was pretty spot on...

all the comments about you being underrated is true, your humor is 10/10, funny as hell video, continue with the great work

you didn't rank zote the mighty, now you must make "So apparently there are 47 bosses in hollow knight"

just commenting to help the algorithm! Loved the video

I loved hearing your opinions and the entire video was really smooth :)

Your editing is awesome. I feel like I’m watching a big and experienced youtuber!

NKG is my favorite boss ❤ once you memorize those patterns, you feel like such a beast fighting him. radiant mode didn’t stand a CHANCE 🔛🔝

Thanks for the video bro

I came in for a ranking but this so much better than expected... I love your humor and montage :)

Worth the wait before even watching

We waited for this video so long and it was worth it, thank for the quality. I really enjoyed this video and it’s so good, so I can rewatch this video later. What’s the outro song? I hope this video goes viral aswell! ^^ you can do the area ranking tier list, I’m hype for it

The moment we’ve all been waiting for ‼️

Gotta say, I'm a really big fan of your humor and editing and I mostly agree with most of the placements on this list, now waiting for the Ranking all types of grass video. Oh and I don't think anyone ever had to heal against Marmu, at least not his normal fight outside the Pantheons. Edit: Really creative #1 pick, never seen that one before on a list. Just kidding, love it too.

I just love that i can immidiately hear the dutch accent. Geweldige video!

You defeated Grimm first try and saying you're a casual player?! Man, wtf, I had to glitch myself through this fight (and some others) to finish it. Amazing video as always Nugget. Love your humor, editing and Pure hate for Marcoth. I hate this fight too, it's boring as bench in hall of gods. I can't rank them all, but I would definitely put Soul Master, Hive Knight low too. The areas they are in are tough, benches are 100 km away from fight and surrounded by 100 enemies. Soul Sanctum gives me nightmare flashbacks. My favorite is The Hollow Knight because it was the most emotional fight. Poor boi knight :( Great video, thank you. Pantheon 5 next?🙃

Great video as always

Great job on this video! I really like what you did with the soundeffects etc. and I agree with your ranking. I think the next ranking totally should be all the hunter's journal entries 😃🤣 P.S. Poor Uumuu deserves some love... 😢🤣

I died to bushy "on puropse" many times for him to feel better

Pure vessels is just amazing. He js my fav too. The music background and everything is amazing. I got radiant on all bosses but pure vessel is the only boss i played multiple time in radiant because its just that fun. Its just so much fun

This video was just perfect!

Love this vid!❤❤ Keep it up whit the good content!

I was shocked to see your sub count after watching, you’re way too good at making content to not gain significantly more popularity soon if you continue putting this much thought/effort into your work! Now I have to go binge watch everything on your channel lol, please keep up the good work!

I really liked that you didnt put the early fights at the bottom exclusively for being easy/simple. Editing and jokes were funny too. Great video, keep it up!

This video is fucking amazing. You deserve a sub.

Amazing video! I loved how you put difficulty on a secondary degree, and only gave points when the difficulty actually added to the fun. I agree a lot with this video, but I simply cannot agree with absolute radiance at number 5. I got through a big portion of the hall of gods, I got 8 bindings on the 4 initial pantheons, I got through all the bosses on the pantheon 5 at my first try (after some training obviously) and I was determined to get the last trophy in the game. I got wrecked by Absrad, went back to the drawing board and tried training with it in the hall. I gave up. Not that I couldn't train more, it took more than 50 tries on Pure vessel to finally beat consistently, I gave up about 5 attempts later on absrad. I couldn't. Not only because I already didn't like the radiance fight that much. Just thinking about grinding so much a boss that I didn't like, was hard as balls, and it would took me at least 45 minutes of grinding at the pantheon just to have a chance of facing it for real again. It's too much of a commitment. 10 minutes on a pantheon is already a bit tiring. But having the hardest boss on the game, that you can't train beforehand, on a challenge that requires you at least 40 minutes to reach is just unfair. I know you ranked it high because of your friend's love for the fight, and I don't know how much you have grinded trying to reach this beast, but I think it's too much. Being hard is not the only point. I think there is a point to be made about respecting the player's time, and this was a terrible violation. Went on a rant, but absolutly amazing video, loved it

Next, all musik and ambiances. XD. Your videos are great.

I actually found markoth easier than no eyes

Wonderful ranking. Pure Vessel was genuine perfection, so glad that fella won. Great video 💯

Amazing video

“Amazing acid spam. Oh I love that!” 😂

a tip for nkg, when he does the dash down onto you, instead of pogoing or anything, just attack him twice when he first hits the ground, then shodow dash through him

Great video, really love your editing.

funny and well edited video amazing job man

#0. Primal Aspid.

6:47 Actually in the pantheons gruz mother is a bit of a relief, because if you actually know how to not get hit by gruz mother it is just a lot of free soul

Funny video! loved the editing

Bro your channel is so good! 🔥 kept ip the great work!

Great video man

My man I ain't gonna lie, I did 2 steel soul runs and in both of them I was very close to dying to flukemarm, like 1 mask left close

This was hella entertaining to watch. Subbed :)

Banger once again 🎉

Fun fact. The mantis in the middle chair in the sisters of battle fight is the last one to go back in their chair when you beat the sisters of battle

Team Cherry could make Massive Moss Charger legitimately worrying to some people if they just took off recoil.

This is my 3rd time watching this video. Very good job 👍.

Fun video and I agree with a lot!

I fucking love the mantis fight. It was my first 'oh shit, let's go' moment with hollow knight. Just well timed dodges, healing and combat. A fight that will stick out for me for a while to come.

The reason Elder Hu is by far the worst boss in this game, is that half the fight you can't even hit him. He's not on screen, even when he's on screen he teleports constantly so you have keep chasing him, unlike, Markoth he's way more fair and he doesn't have any attacks that literally makes him impossible to hit. You always have the chance of getting hits in if your good enough.

Great video, you're literally my favorite Hollow Knight youtuber.

Holy shit someone who agrees with me on soul tyrant!??!!??

Daym do you give an heart to every single comment? pure dedication

Bro your hilarious I’m a instant fan you got my sub

Always good to meet another Massive Moss Charger enjoyer 👑😎

This just got recommended to me. Salt in the wound.

Me: time for bed RU-vid alghorithm: no u need to watch this 40 min boss ranking Worth it

The video of all time!1!!1!1!!🔥🔥🔥

I wish all the bosses were on par with mantis lords, especially the three sisters. It feels like a dance, the same as Grimm, and it's so unique.

He had me in the 1st half with nkg I legit thought he was gonna be 45th place

WoW man, you make the best hollow knight content on the platform!

Man is zoizo een Nederlander, wel leuke vid moet ik toegeven, hollow knight is gwn bijna perfect

It have been 84 years

Abs rad is completely skill imo, there’s always multiple ways to approach an attack and the only way you can get unlucky is due to glitches which is unfortunate but yeah I don’t really struggle with her

Massive moss charger the game! I laughed so hard at this joke!! My man, you are hilarious!!

Such a fun video, you got a sub bro 🤍

Markoth is ok, it’s the P5 floorless version that is definitely bottom of the barrel

Sick video!
