Ring Man - Boss
About Ring Man's Pattern
Many new players find Ring Man frustrating. With a little practice, you can recognize a consistent pattern.
- Ring Man fires a boomerang along the ground. Jump over it. When it returns to Ring Man, it will fly up.
- Ring Man jumps high and fires a boomerang on an angle. Slide under it, then jump over Ring Man
- Ring Man will walk to your position. He may fire a boomerang as he walks.
- Repeat.
Your job is to avoid nearly all of these shots and pummel Ring Man.
Optimal Strat
Hold B entering the room to charge a Pharaoh shot. As soon as the fight begins, release the shot and begin charging another.
Slide right up to Ring Man's position and stop short. The overhead Pharaoh shot should bump into him. Avoid Ring Man as he walks forward, and shoot him with the latent charge. Immediately begin charging again. Jump the next low Ring, hit Ring with the full overhead Pharaoh charge. Fire the shot after iframes to finish Ring.
Refight Notes
You cannot enter the refight holding B for a charge. The opening charge is replaced by 2 uncharged Pharaoh shots.
