@6:34 Hades crossover but we get Skelly as a playable skull
Can you even imagine how many bodies Zag left on the mortal plane?😅
I'm sure his bones are pretty common to find.😂
@grey11aldering wasn't Zag stuck in the underworld the whole time? Now Achilles may have left heaps of bodies in his wake 🤣 but I'd love to have Skelly because his comedy would be great, so many text bubbles (or maybe the one skull with a VA?)
would be fun to see a HK skull being the knight a rare skull, becoming The hollow knight in unique and then becomes pure vessel or smth. hell, he can even be a base legendary speed skull that can be a magic damage kind of skull
I completely agree with this and want this in the game as soon as possible.
Wait, what about a Hornet skull which starts at unique and is called Protector, and the legendary is Sentinel
Also a Zote skull that is a legendary but also the worst skull in the game
@@eugeneimnotgonnatellyoumyl5513 no zote would be common but unable to be upgraded for no reason
knowing the lore the knight wouldn't really evolve into anything afawk so it'd probably be a legend skull
i could also see it playing exactly like in HK too with the pogo [tho it probably won't be broken or anything like as the nail was in Dead Cells (god that was funny)]
the skills would be nail arts and spells and dealing physical damage builds soul which you could then use to use the spell skil. which spells and nail arts you use would be dependent on what direction you're pressing/holding and the spells would make skul invincible as the animation is playing like how the slam spell in hk works. the spells would also become their void versions when skul's health is low too. tapping the spell skill button would cast the "fireball" hk spell and holding it with no direction would have you heal like in hk too. to counteract the healing your soul will continuosly drain out of battle like ghoul's flesh and king's cells. oh and both skills would not have cooldown, this is balanced with the fact that nail arts need concentration time and spells expend your soul meter. the soul spell skills would also deal a bit more base damage then the nail art skills
the idea here is that just like in hk you are fragile but as also just like in hk you can circumvent this with knowledge and skill of the game and using windows your enemies give you. the hybridity of the skul's phy and mag damage would also allow you three potential damage options with a balanced and safer dual damage option where you focus on both nail arts and spells, a more in the now phys build where you can get concentration items and damage increasers to spam nail arts for big damage and only using soul to heal, and a magic build where you play a game of patience to build up soul and then unload your spells on the enemy for again big damage.
anyways this has been my HK collab pitch skul devs please hire me
. . . 3min in and already . . . beelz are you actually sure there isn't some sort of curse or blessing cast on you that makes that item show up every video ? no like literally i am sure it will show up on magic runs now too
edit at 37:55 : it was at this moment i took emotional damage over you not taking relapse and of ALL the things you took short hand . . . i know it's not bad . . . BUT COME ON IT'S A STUN BUILD
Yes, been waiting for a Minotaur run, imo he's right up there with Ghoul for best power skull in the game. He just hits so hard, his swap is great, and the stun even without any support puts in work. If you get your items, he just destroys anything not stun immune. I would however like to see another itemization pass, because some things are still just so terrible, like freeze, and some builds you just fall into due to the sheer number of items that have their inscription.
We need another samurai and thor run
6:32 those are really interesting skull ideas that could be in the game since it would add more crossovers
The Return of MAH BOI! Minotaur is just so fun. Just a big bulky boi who is here FOR CRUSHING. Such a solid skull. Just a big powerhouse of a fella. Still probably one of my favorite skulls actually.
In relation to the run, one second of extra stun duration may not seem like much, but with the Legendary armor and the fact you get extra damage amp vs. stunned targets, that extra window for damage amp into the secondary hit from the armor can actually add up to quite a bit of extra burst. Not the most exciting buff, but it IS a potent effect. Your attacks were doing about 1.5k-3k damage on average during your stun windows, and then Armor would pop and just slap the hell outta dudes. Good times.
Also, if you wanted to do a Rockstar run while also still aiming for a new Enhanced Inscription to look at, maybe Fire Rockstar? Gotta get those Pyrotechnics! He doesn't do any innate fire, but a lot of what you do as Rockstar actually flows really well with what the Fire items want you to do (Use skills, spam attacks, and dash consistently.) so it could work out pretty well.
Update goes hard, was able to get the -new boss, not the slightly more hidden one- 2nd try, but only 2hp left. Been checking skul news every day since it came out on PC and am very glad us console folks have it!
I had been checking about every day for the update on Switch but no joke a couple of days ago all these rouge likes had an update to download(might not have been new I just kept checking games till one didn't have an update). Madshot, Double Dragon, Have A Nice Death, Death or Treat and Doomsday Hunters. I got into Doomsday Hunters as I had only done a couple of runs before. A pretty good isometric twin stick shooter rouge like, you might like it if you haven't tried it before. Just went to download the Skul update after watching this vid and Brotato also has update today.
Took some time, but after 121 deaths I successfully finished my first run... I wasn't that bad with DC :D
It may be redeeming, that is was only the second time reaching Joan and the first time reaching the Hero.
And which team made it possible? Well, I assume it is easy to guess :D can only be the survival dream team Shield and Ghoul :D Ghoul also part when I made it the first time to Joan.
What is funny is the fact that I initially avoided power skulls. I normally prefer nimble characters. And especially Ghoul with his growing presence was my antithesis :D Like you mentioned in a lot of videos. The survivability of those two is crazy. I ate so much damage in the hero fight, that with every other skull it would have been over :D
Now it is time to get some consistency into beating runs (or it was a one time wonder, who knows) and unlocking more stuff before venturing into hard mode
Beelz: "I need more money"
Also Beelz: *Takes skull room*
okay, so as a console player, thoughts on all the new skulls despite having only played two of them:
-Guan Yu: Honestly, kinda suffers from Monkey syndrome of wanting to run everything but can't because of the 9 slots you're given. cool character, but damn is he slow at times. Unrivaled Strike is a cool idea for a move, but I wish you didn't have to jump through so many hoops just to do it. Maybe if they changed it so that the casting speed gets faster the further into your basic attack combo you're in, it would feel a lot better. It would also make the enhanced version a lot more interesting as well.
-Ascetic: Arguably a better Genie. Genie to me, his whole shtick is that he's a bit of an evasion tank of sorts with all his skills giving some form of i-frames. Ascetic does a very similar thing while also dealing pretty good damage, has fast skills for a power skull, and as a whole feels very fun. A skill cooldown run with both him and Genie is something I shall try in the future.
-Haven't tried Sparty, Thor, or Arthur yet, but out of all of them, I'll probably bounce off Sparty the best. Hell, Sparty kinda seems like a reverse Guan Yu but also a little bit better
We need a new gunner skull to go along with mummy skull, cause the stun gun build made me think of a cool idea for one
Muh man! my dude! have I ever mentioned you are one of my favorite content creators? this last year has been rough for both of us and you have my condolences. I hope it brings some respite to know that I enjoy your content tremendously, and even if it doesn't I still wish you well. have a good one my guy.
I was SO happy to finally see the update and dlc drop for PS4! Overall it's a great send off for the story, but I still have some lingering questions about what was up with the previous Demon King. They never seem to explain why he killed the Hero's original party members after being saved.
By no means the most OP build ever. But full uptime balrog with revenge (and bone scream for good measure) has been my favorite build lately. Would recommend
I spent 6 straight hours doing Thor over and over before I finally got my DM10 clear including dark skul. Man is it tough. Slaves skills locking him for so long feels terrible but aside from that, all the new skulls and items are just incredible and for only 4 dollars!
I would love to see a 'start' with a sin item (probably the gold one?) And build something out of it :)
Nice use of swapping btw!
That ninja sneeze had me dyin
"my platform has definitely suffered" oh, so it's time to play Celeste again then XD
Yesterday I went to sleep at 1:30am cause I saw that the update was out... Got minotaur and shield and breezed through the whole thing, I couldn't wait anymore!!! I have to wait until next week to get the DLC cause I'm broke... But still 🔥🔥🔥
Beelz, my God, thanks for the blessing, i am living my best live thanks to you
My 2024 has sucked, I'm ready for 2025. I started the year off with covid, which was immediately followed up by a case of labyrinthitis (aka vertigo).
But its always a good day when a Skul video comes out, so its not all bad
The stun duration lasting 1 more second I think it's intended to help rack up more damage.
On its own, it gives you more time for amped damage from dizziness 4's amp.
But there's items that do fixed damage after the stun, depending on how much damage you did to the enemy.
More time = more opportunities to rack up damage.
Yes I am defending what is arguably one of the worst modified inscriptions of the game.
I have had a horrible year so far, I am choosing to see the glass half full when I can.
Let me have this.
Picked it up as soon as i could, first run with the absolute on an omen masterpiece build. Lost on the last possible phase against the emperor (dm5), then absolutely demolished with thor/archlich omen 2 (idol of the forgotten and lunar eclipse which was dropped)/ treasure 4 (enhanced sword) to absolutely NUKE the final boss. after that I went back to quickly unlock the others so i could attempt a king run which i dropped for an absolute/champion pure damage run on dm6, still havent unlocked dark skul but I'm gonna have a blast trying to gradually get to higher and higher dark mirror levels!
The slam jump actually deals pretty big damage IMAO, i usually focus on it when i play as Minotaur, although i haven't been playing skul for a while, or anything
I made a Hercules stun run. Nothing could resist me xD It was awesome ^^
u knocked alexanders fake hip right out in that last phase lmfao poor guy got the beating of his life
Yeeeeeeeeeeeeesss minotaur is back to smack beyoches with his long......hard....log😂😅. Hiya beelz
FINALLY...!!!! Skul content🤤🤤
Alexander got destrooooyeeeed!!!! More skul lesgoooo
I just tried out a DM 10 rare mummy run built around go getter and magic items. Cloud storm, invisible knife.. made it to dad but it might make for an interesting video beating dm10 with rare mummy .
Yo! sick video as always, I need some tips for hard mode dad. or maybe how to get there in the first place :
Im new to the game and have only gotten to around level 4 so im not sure how viable it actually is but i recently did an attack speed and low skill cooldown build for Samurai and that was pretty fun.
Thor and the Unknown King are hands down my favorite skulls
Good ol skull. Love it.
Minotaur is my all time favorite skul and will always be.
I feel they might add in more items as we are still missing some combos but if anything we’ll probably get more omen items
All this comments, lile "it's a stun build... Cmom Beelz" etc etc , and here i am enjoying 1+ hour with my friend. GG
Ps
Dude 1st stage always put you through hell, it's not like you weren't here in a hot minute 😮😁
I literally was downloading cobalt core and i saw the skull update start… theres also the update for peglin i gotta play more of, so many things going on in so many games and now the update drops on console… oh well, ill get to it at some point
Yes you even can oneshot Dark Skul. I did it on my Channel.
I’ve never like Minotaur but this run makes me want to try him
i got the game for christmas not too long ago, and recently downloaded the console update and bought the DLC, it's been fun.
still struggling on beating DM 5. but i did manage to at least beat the emperor and Dark Skul
also if it's not too much to ask, could we get a video going over the enchanted inscriptions and their effects?
I have arrivedddd, I'm excited for some moreeee skulll
I wonder if relapse would have made the stun armor keep procing for each time the stun effect ends and restarts.
Also! I’ve been watching Frieren Beyond Journey’s End and Hell’s Paradise.
remember when master fighter thieves longbow and gunpowder were like the essential for physical boys to deal with dad ? I miss those days a bit, now I rarely use master fighter bc I can't fit it with its inscriptions *sigh*
Edit : I forgot rear blast 😳
woooooo another skulls video with our big booiii minooooo
Beelz is back for more Skul 😊
I think it would be a cold day in hell when the almighty beelz does a mutant Minotaur build (Which is my favorite run I’ve done with him, bonus points for ent or bomber being the other skul)
It’s me! I asked for a Minotaur run! Nobody else, clearly only me, LET ME HAVE THIS
Not gonna lie, but that ninja thing before stage 1 on the final boss...got me
Since this is the build that won me my first victory, i know it's pretty busted myself
Good video as always anyway my friend
Thank you finaly anither skull vid
As a multi platform gamer, I have already completed the mythology pack on PC and damn was I impatiently waiting to do the EXACT SAME THING on switch and PS4. Why own it on so many consoles? I don't know, but I love this game
YES, STUN BUILD! I TOLD YOU! Stun Minotaur is a god, so much damage and fun bonking the entire game with a tree trunk
y'know, i wanna see you play a double shard of darkness run
I did have an idea to make freeze less of a pain I call it pneumonia
(Feel free to reply if you wanna hear more)
Been a while since we had some Skul the hero slayer, maybe we can have that promised Guan Yu and Spartacus runs that you said you would do another
Update has been Fun!
13:36 honk
I swear cudgel shows up every run
This run truly shows why you want to have some early treasure going, otherwise you can't even afford shops
Edit: what? No silent cries? This is not beelz, who are you?!
Edit2: to answer your questions Beelz, samurai can still EASILY one shot Joan at 10 and you can even one hit dark daddy but that last one is rng because if you get the 4 strike effect proc on the moon slash well... That happens
I wanna see a full cursed build on a gargoyle run
Managed to bring 4 Duel to the end finally, it’s… it’s not worth it. Even with the best Duel items and other things to help, it is just, bad.
Minotaur putting his big meaty paws on anything not stun immune will never not be fun😊
STUN TIME!
I would love to see Vlad the Impaler as a skull. Start off Common (Vlad the human) and once he's legendary he becomes Dracula. Bleed synergy and healing. Mmm.
I am thinking drain effect on bleed. Make him a speedy boi. But...maybe make his basic attack magic? Not sure how to balance him
I mean, there WAS a scrapped concept for a legendary vampire skull in the game. I think Beelz did a couple videos covering him
coulda done stun clown one of the craziest stunner in the game
id like to see a dante and vergil skull
You know, some of these skulls (like Minotaur and Ascetic) are part of the same mythos.
What if you did a normal mode run where you rigged in two skulls from the same mythos and did a themed run?
have you ever thought about doing a guide for how to build characters? I tried looking for a resource the other day and I was struggling to find one
It is kinda rough how you can go into the community servers and struggle to find many resources for the game
While it isn't focused on Hard Mode I did make an overexplained run guide a while back that more or less covers about 90% of what new players might need to know as they get started.
czcams.com/video/daqx6bdTjxc/video.html
time for the gargoyle run!!
Be back to the vid later, must go get the dlc now.
Beelz Skul when? 🤌🏾
Edit: Beelz Skul passive is hax or "high chance" of getting legendaries
Ah, yes... The stun gun. I mean, run
its stunnning how much u rely on dashing
Hades would go crazy especially waiting for hades 2 🎉❤
Can you do a 90-item video with new items. Also can you include the Golden King items.
I want to see another monkey run maybe damage foucused?
We back🗣️ and waiting for samurai🔥
Can't rely on me for asking what's goin' on in the outside world, my ass remains writing my horrid depraved fiction and I guess occasionally streaming from inside my imp cave.
And yeah, this is kinda what I suspected for the niche inscription runs! That just running one of them and then a bunch of meta or just generally really good items beside it would not only be competitive but maybe even strong as hell. Now I'm curious if poison could do the same... Plus doesn't poison have two legendaries if you count the chimera item? Hmmmmmm... It's a shame there isn't a good dedicated poison skull like how bleed has sword.
It may just be me but can someone tally how many times archmage shows up this run? Also how many unique skulls showed up
30:53 - anyone noticed the black circle thing? is there something we could do about it or it is plain nothing?
You stand near it for about 30 seconds or so and it shows you where the location of one of the Pure Quartz is. You need to collect them all to open up the secret Dark Skul boss fight that I do near the end.
I thiiiiink this video is the one where I show you where to get each one of the Pure Quartz if you don't want to worry about finding them yourself

@@Beelz55 thank you so much my skull sifu!!😁
Do an Archerboy run Beelz please :< Love that skull long time no see you play him :
I did a vid for him 2 months ago when the update came out.
czcams.com/video/YLFe6spWMc0/video.html
@@Beelz55 Ooooh missed that one. Awesome!!!!
Samurai can't one shot anymore on DM10. Warrior definitely can. I one shot dark skul with a strike build warrior for 221k dmg. Filthiest build I've ever had by far.
I won't forgive you cause you ditched kirion
Is there an increased chance of getting the cudgel? Because istg i have seen it so much more compared to any of the other legendaries recently
BEEEELLZZZZZZZ
Is the version you are playing the basic version with add-ons or do you have any mods installed?
I've got mods installed as well. But it's also the most up to date patch.
Yeeessss!
I only managed to complete the base game with rookie mode on.
Any tips for the dark mirror😅
Patience and practice. You'll need to learn what each enemy does and the best way to avoid being hit by those attacks. I tend to focus on who I want to play and at least getting 2 skills on them before I worry about item rooms. Others do things differently though, I just prefer having a strong character first.
Defensive builds work wonders. Especially Ghoul and Shield.
I dare you to do a true roguelike skul run new save no upgrades from normal mode to dark mirror 10 a single death means that you restart the entire thing also no grinding for good rng you may only play each difficulty once if you die you have to get rid of all of your dark quartz also every single run has to be streamed in order to make sure that you aren't cheating also you are allowed to unlock every purchasable item if you do so you are not allowed to keep it
you know what it is FARSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS
BALLS
22:35 why do people choose to die on sister?
I explained it at 13:00. Basically the Cudgel has a bonus effect that only activates after you've lost 1 life. So I take the dark ability that grants me an extra life for the sole purpose of wasting it. This activates the cudgels most powerful effect for the whole run. I choose to deliberately die on a boss fight right before the end because they always drop large healing spheres afterwards.
Can somebody tell me what's the best build/skull or both to beat hard mode 10? I'm really struggling right now because I just got back To the game after a while and I still haven't beaten it
Ghoul or Shield. Get 2 Revenge for healing. Some Antique will help as well. If you go with Ghoul grab the Piety dark ability (veeeeeeery bottom left one that enhanced healing gained). Super Baby for more HP. Collection Desire if you have 4+ inscriptions to boost it. Stack a few damage items and go nuts.
Anything else on the build is adjusted based on what you get. Good curse abilities, defensive items like Knights Determination. Which quint you find etc.
I dare you to do a balrog run again 😏
Yipee!
Beellzzz, where is ur promise to play rock star? Been waiting
Let's go
With heracules I got my first win
...wait why don't you get secret quartz?
I don't need to anymore, the secret boss is always available after you summon him once.
