Severely Underleveled, But Destroying TTYD's Final Boss Anyway (No Superguards) 

i did the same thing... tricky tricky devs, fixing that oversight on us

I think it was to control the guaranteed bingo

same, its genuinely surprising to me how the bingo of all things gets incorporated in a strategy

@@bekfstman9841 Considering we're talking about peril strats? Was a pretty swift conclusion.

Nah... careful, there can only be one Paper Mario goat and I don't know if he'd take too kindly if anyone else but him is called that.....

@@Koopatrol Who would that be?

@@ElTaitronAnimThe one thing Koop fears most… It starts with a “K” and ends with an “appy”…

Idc about goat status or whatever lol. Someone else can have it.

He even used it twice

He wouldn't do something as (seemingly) stupid as eating the crystal stars just for a slight chance something would happen. Noise would though! Although, he would definitely kill everyone he encounters along the way out.

It's definitely not anything, but it is a weird design choice because of that. The middle of the warp room in Origami King had a warp pipe to Origami Castle... but there's already a pipe that leads from the start to end of the Palace of Shadow. It appears after you beat the game. My best guess is that if there was supposed to be a pipe there, it would probably have lead to the courtyard (basically the middle point of the Palace.) I guess they eventually decided it wasn't necessary cuz of the green pipe already there.

@@ninjastronautguymagenta There’s also a video where someone found the hole where Bowser fell on Grodus. It’s the little room after Gloomtail’s arena. They must’ve used a cheat, because the hallway that leads there turns into stairs after you solve all the puzzles in the Riddle Tower, taking away your access to that room.

@@fridaynightfunkinfan5627 I've seen that, and yeah, they def used cheats to find it, which is why the vid was super interesting.

@@ninjastronautguymagenta The question is, how’d Bowser get there? Sure he can jump high, but can he really jump to THAT height?

@@fridaynightfunkinfan5627 idk man.

That's why I'd recommend not using it on bosses, especially since the remake buffed Sleep. Immobilizing statuses are just very cheesy in general. That's just the nature of them.

I didn't even used sleep stomp and it was still very easy

Yeag

Correct! The battle ends with the token 1 Star Point in the GCN version of the game, but not in the remake. Interestingly, Bonetail still gives 1 Star Point in the remake, meaning it was a conscious decision to not give that Star Point in the remake . If I had to guess, I would say that they didn't want a level up to defuse the tense situation?

I got the star point double spell when I beat the Shadow Queen. Fun times😂

@@AngbangCorpsame lol

​​@@EyeBallin42They did make a compensation for Bonetail though, and I don't believe it was in the original. Here's some space for spoilers if anyone cares. She now gives 999 coins along with the 1 star point. A welcome feature when considering another new part of the remake involving the Pit (space for spoilers again...) You can pay 300 coins to go straight to floor 50 after beating the Pit once! If you know beyond that, you know.

That's what I'm wondering, I was gonna do "no level" challenge by just not using more than 3 BP since I figured I'd gain too many levels for low level to be interesting

He is level 25, but invested only in BP and is just using as many badges as level 3 Mario could. (Excluding Peekaboo which is for viewers' convenience).

Koop isn't actually level 3, as you can see by the Badges screen at 0:24 - they've just left most of their BP unused to simulate being level 3 (Using 9 BP, as that's how much you'd have at level 3 with both level-ups going into BP). You can also see that the stage is a higher rank in the fights than what you would have at level 3.

​@@ThermalVoid I guess this is what happens when you just skip to the fight lol

There's an npc you can go to that can rearrange your HP FP and BP for a price one level at a time. However I wouldn't be surprised if Koop is good enough to get this far with only level 3 stats lol

The bingo in the final battle is guaranteed

Mario's base stats are shown in the thumbnail. 10 HP, 5 FP, 9 BP, with 3 of the BP towards HP Plus. The game would show it as 15 HP, 5 FP, 9 BP in the menu, but that would make the base stats look like Level 4 when it's really Level 3.

@@Koopatrol Yeah totally fair not trying to critize. Just not what I expected.

I'm pretty sure that's only to make the video more interesting, not because he can't superguard. I've followed this guy for years and he's insanely skilled at this game.

@@kelvindavis172 yeah he knows hes just kidding around

@@moonlightostrich3690 Oh, my bad! I really suck at detecting sarcasm. 😅

The point is that he's playing as if he only had level 3 stats (10 HP, 5 FP, 9 BP). It's a hypothetical low-level/challenge strategy.
