ULTRAKILL ACT 2: Gabriel Boss Battle - VIOLENT - 6-2 

Shiiiiiit, my theme bangs

I like the thought process of >How did I lose twice to a machine >Am I gay? >I need to overthrow the government

Can you imagine if Gabriel was so mad he grabbed you while you loaded in and just threw you into the boss arena

"THATS- *PROJECTILE BOOST* THE BEST- *PROJECTILE BOOST* YOU'VE GOT!?" *PROJECTILE BOOST*

"IS THAT THE BEST YOU'VE GOT!?" Gabriel said, while his health is already cut in half.

"I will grind you down until the very sparks cry for mercy" metal as hell

Gabriel returning to heaven just to kill a corrupt council of angels just because he bled has gotta be the most metal and ultrakill like thing I've ever heard. Awesome!

Ultrakill players knowing exactly what to do while at the same time flinging their camera like a tennis racket

Hakita sure is a master at Curveballs - We square up face to face with Gabriel, Gianni gives a Masterclass on Voice Acting a character engulfed in rage, and after kicking his angelic ass again, instead of making him sink further into his rage, we make him _Reflect_ on his actions. Even I got hit good by this low sweep.

Gabriel playing an organ is fucking hilarious, he's like so dramatic about it.

You canonically beat Gabriel's ass so hard that he developed a humiliation fetish and had to reassess his very existence.

God I love Gabriel as a character. A self righteous, zealous Angel who couldn’t even *CONCEIVE* being beaten by something that doesn’t even have a pulse, turned into a self reflective, independent warrior because he actually starts to *wonder* why he keeps losing. Our actions and how we affect him spurred him to change and act for *HIMSELF* instead of a God that he doesn’t even know is listening or not. Gianni does a great job of bringing Gabriel to life too, *especially here.* His monologue as you enter the boss chamber is some of my favorite dialogue in ANY game as the desperation, anger, and determination in his voice makes the room shake. And as the fight goes on, you realize it’s a mirror of your first encounter with him. In the first Gabriel fight, he starts confident, cocky even, almost insulted by the fact that you’re challenging him. But as he realizes you’re a threat, he *loses it completely,* because how could a “mere object” take down an ANGEL?! Here, it’s the opposite. Gabriel starts furiously, blinded by rage as he lashes out at you and screaming defiantly in challenge. When you hit his second phase, his tone completely changes. *He starts enjoying the fight.* He’s laughing, his comments are less blind and emotional. It’s as if Gabriel has regained control of himself. And when you finally defeat him, he is shaken by it sure, but he also somewhat relishes the idea that he’ll have to *try* and kill you. He’s relieved to taste his own blood, and almost appreciative of your efforts against him as he leaves. The entire idea of an Angel losing faith is such a cool concept to me, but the fact that Gabriel elevates farther and actually becomes *his own person*, finding himself through his defeat to you and acting against those who used him as a tool for his entire life, DESPITE KNOWING IT’LL KILL HIM EVENTUALLY. That is what makes him such a unique character in my eyes. I apologize for the massive rant, I just really love Gabriel’s arc and can’t wait to see what act 3 does with it. The title “Godfist Suicide” gives me some idea, but we’ll see!

the voice acting is the highlight for me, you can tell he's just barely keeping himself composed through his sheer fucking rage.

I nearly beat him first try, got cocky, then he proceeded to utterly annihilate me for 30 minutes.

01:30 that voice crack sells the PURE RAGE Gabriel feels so fucking well. To the brink of insanity.

Remember when Hakita said that V1 isn't this story's protagonist? Yeah, i see it now

2:02 this was cinematic as fuck. Gabriel yelling “IS THAT THE BEST YOU GOT?!” While v1 just hammers his projectiles back at him

Godfist suicide is probably the name of some death metal album somewhere and i am here for it

Honestly despite everything he's done, I can't help but feel a bit bad for Gabriel. You can literally hear in the offbeat, fast notes of his theme, his practically rambling lines, and the way he fights that his sanity is falling apart. He's just about mcfucking had it.

BEATEN BY A FUCKING GO PRO... TWICE!!!

With what Gabriel did, I think there is a chance we fight alongside Gabriel against act 3’s boss. Probably won’t happen, but it’s just a theory.

Somehow the voice crack at 1:28 only makes him MORE BADASS, because it does such a good job at selling how absolute and overwhelming his HATRED for V1 truly is... An incredible character brought to life in an incredible manner by the one and only.

*dies from peak fiction*

First of all Gianni’s voice acting skills are just superb! The hate, the desperation, all consuming an angel into madness. Gabriel will become the definition of madness and bloodlust and my theory is that eventually we will help him but the his lust for blood and ours will collide eventually leading to us clashing in a battle filled with gore and blood as both tear apart each other until only one being stands. May the most cruel and brutal win.

"Face it, brother. *God is dead.* The fire is gone. You're chasing phantoms." imagine a whole cutscene/animation with voiceline of the storytelling

2:01 IS THAT TH- *parry* BEST YOU- *parry* 'VE GO- *parry*

I wish there is DLC where you play as Gabriel in slaying the council

I haven't seen a boss so good since the Soul of Cinder boss fight. Oh yeah, And also Slave Knight Gael's boss fight, Both are fun.

i like how they used a less enthusiastic take for the 2nd "may your woes be many and your days few". was a nice touch

the voice action its absolutely perfect. Gianni is a genius

*"YOU NEED MORE POWER!"* God dammit, Hakita!

God damn what a massive glowup gabriel had

the pure SPEED at which this video came out. you are DEDICATED

The gap between the first time Gabe returned to the Council and the second being not more than 24 hours speaks volume as how fast V1 exterminates through the layers of hell.

gianni's throat is in *S H A M B L E S*

i love how that wasn't a P rank because of time, even though that was 2 minutes

I absolutely dig how surprised he sounded when he said "relief?" because just about everyone, including Gabriel himself probably expected that another loss would make him turn fully feral.

"YOU'RE GETTING RUSH-E'D MACHINE!" Best line

tip for anyone who hasn’t read the patch notes fully: the whiplash now gives Hard Damage (limit on how much you can heal when you aren’t at full health) when you latch onto enemies, so keep that in mind and don’t spam it too often

Dude literally speedran nihilism wtf

....Bruh, he literally ultrakilled in heaven. Bet some thanos glove shows up to slay some biblically accurate angel. Still no holy diver.

Can we all just agree that the "HERE. AND NOW" into the soundtrack was badass

Gabriel getting a taste of what it feels like to be human, during act 1 he is prideful and believes that the idea of a machine could defeat him is impossible, then when he is beaten he is in total disbelief and is angry and during the act 2 he released all that rage at v1 and eventually becomes hysterical “what is this feeling?” so far Gabriel begins feeling what it’s like to be human to know that any moment death will claim one of them and it changes him, to once feel invincible only to be become vulnerable

Fighting Gabriel is like Fighting Jesus if he snorted 18 Kilograms of Cocaine and you told him you put his hamster in a blender

I like that Gabriel has made a full on, well rounded character arc with 2 encounters and a monologue

A S S

In fact, after many attempts in the battle with Gabriel, I felt the same relief as he did. Literally to shiver in the body.

Random idea but, if Gabe dies hours after slaying councilors, imagine he had the idea to take after V1, looking up to it and becoming a machine too (uploading his mind). V3/VG canon when?

I love the intensity of the transition to the boss fight itself

I agree I love ultrakilling

Gabriel's voice being drowned out by his own projectiles being deflected back at him is incredible.

The strained, ANGRY voicelines during the battle were so cool dude, oh my god YOU'RE GETTING RUSTY, MACHINE

"So, I lost to you for a second time, you cornered me.and about to kill ? Nah, I need to think about what just happened for a bit. See ya later."

It just hit me that the name Godfist Suicide might be hinting that we're getting the last arm next.

Gianni absolutely nailed these voicelines

the scenario part after the battle just... broke me, this game was only a dumb shooter at first but Hakita literally made it one of the doom like game with the best lore

i dread what P-2 will be if this is the final boss of the act

I suck at this game so I was pretty proud of myself for beating him in only four try’s using a combo of the rocket and the rail guns drill mode. Really stellar fight and Giannis performance really is the cherry on top.

fun but useless fact. you can actually fight Gabriel outside of his arena, beating him results in not being able to leave the level as the entry to the arena closes

Seriously, the only words that could pass me before he slammed his fist on the organ was “Uhh… Gabe?” Also, gotta love how you instantly get “Chaotic” for pissing him off with your mere existence.

2:02 "IS THAT-" Shotgun punch "THE BEST-" Shotgun punch "YOU'VE-" ... Shotgun punch "GOT?!!?!" Gabe losing his mind

“Godfist Suicide” IS SUCH A COOL FUCKING NAME AAUTHH I NEED MORE!!! ULTRAKILL!! I LOVE ULTRAKILL!!!!!

This stories protagonist seems alot more like Gabriel instead of v1 if you think about it. Gabriel is talking to a brick wall all this time, a machine that already has directives and can't even respond or understand what he is saying. He is the only one that actually goes through a character arc in the entire story. We mostly play as the catalyst that spark this change in personality.

Imagine being mad as hell at a box of gears and bolts... And failing miserably. If V1 had any emotions, it would probably be something like "lmao"

Woah ultrakilling

id fight him ingame rn but i'd wake up my family with my squeals of pure joy I LOVE GABRIEL SO MUCH HES SO SKRUNKLY

Gianny put his whole Voussy into Gabriel's rage.

Anyone else just watch the first 3 minutes over and over again, this is just such a good fight.

The fact his voice cracks make it even more perfect, gabriel became the cringe.

“Gabriel looked upon the embers with a perfect clarity” “I like men…”

Gabriel woke up...

I wanna play as gabriel in his last hours

The reason I love this fight so much, is because you can easily counter him. Unlike in 3-2, where he has barely any parryable attacks, this fight is easy to parry, and it's fun. Also a great boss theme, buildup, and arena.

I appreciate you going slowly, love the aesthetics on this game

There are 2 difficulty’s in this game: Normal, And *V I O L E N C E*

"IS THAT THE BEST YOU'VE GOT?!" proceeds to get shredded like a block of cheese

I love how Hakita made Gabriel from a whiny shitbrick to an absolute powerhouse whose willing to do anything for his people

loved the nod you gave him

"MY DAD GROUNDED ME, MACHINE." "AND HE WON'T READ ME *BIBLE STORIES TONIGHT!* "

Tip for all Gabriel fights:using the coin while sliding in circles is a pretty good way to deal damage If you struggle fighting him directly until he starts talking The second fight is a little bit harder to pull off since he has more attacks that could hit you but dashing and sliding in circles is the key to it

Thanks for taking it slow!

this helped me beat the boss thank you

IS THAT THE B- *BLAM* EST YOU- *BLAM* VE G- *BLAM* OT???

Gabriel: ill kill you this time V1: no Gabriel: well, if you cant beat em, join em.

I might be late, but damn - you got them moves.

I really hope Gabriel doesnt die. After so much he went, i really hope we can save him. Because in the end i do get a felling that he is a good person deep down

Okay… just a small but very cool theory… but what if you end up playing as Gabriel for the ending? Going against the will of God?

Man beat him so hard that made him rethink life 💀💀💀💀💀💀

I am not joking when I say I come back every other day to this

Thanks I needed to write down his dialouge for my fanfiction.

Dude at first i was underwhelmed by ACT:II and the ending blew me away and it was AWESOME

the way he says relish u fell that shit

God, you handled this fight beautifully! I had a hell of a rough time on Standard difficulty, so I can't imagine fighting him on Violent or above. You wrote a bible story in his blood.

I did not know that there were actual words in ultrakill, I thought it was just voiceacting in maxor's video and the actual game was wordless. this is awesome.

KinnoFabino at it again with his PERFECT voice acting!

Holy hell, that delivery. This guy HATES you and the voice Actor sells it like a fine wine!

That speech gives me shivers every time I hear it

BEAUTIFUL performance by matragrano here. im obsessed.

The buildup to this rematch is just as good if not better than Minos Prime and I love both fights just as equally

YOU'RE GETTING RUSTY, MACHINE! the pure anger I felt when Gabriel said this...
