IMPORTANT: I made a mistake while editing crediting myself as the editor behind the Earth Dragon entry. The editor was actually ClassyEditing! My sincerest apologies for the egregious oversight. That was not my intention!
Interesting that most Earth bosses are either the first boss… or the easiest. But #1 seems to be a final boss. And at least one of the Honorable Mentions.
Man, my boy Cragalanche kinda got done dirty here. An explosive rock boss from Kid Icarus: Uprising serving under Viridi as one of the commanders for the Forces of Nature, he has a rock-solid set of attacks, from burrowing under the earth, firing rock projectiles, and literally shooting himself towards you.
Definitely someone you had to be on your toes for, and the classic KI:U dialogue adds that cherry on top to this pretty nice boss. Kinda wish he got an honorable mention at least, but oh well.
7:05 Primal Groudon! That's my favorite Pokemon!
Not sure how prevalent an idea in video games this is but how's about a Top Ten Sports Bosses countdown?
As in bosses with a heavy theme or emphasis on sports. The game doesn't have to involve sports itself, (not like Sports games come with bosses anyway really, Boxing games aside perhaps *looks at Ready 2 Rumble Round 2 and Punch-Out*, but still), but just that the boss in question is themed to a sport. Whether that be baseball, football, soccer, hockey, snowboarding, Golf, skateboarding; you name it, they play it.
man, Josh did us Dirty with these puns.
Just asking, he doesn't have any earth powers, but he is made of clay: does the Golem from Vampire: The Masquerade Redemption count as an earth boss?
I came to see if Hugo Kupka/Titan was in this list, and so I’m immensely glad that he ended up as #1 like he rightfully deserved. Definitely one of the best and most badass boss fights in a recent RPG, hands down.
There are four Clayfaces. The one most people are familiar with is Matt Hagen from BTAS. Heck, when talking about Basil Karlo, Joshscorcher uses some of Matt Hagen’s comic book origin! You think he knows that Basil Karlo didn’t submerge himself into radioactive stuff that turned him into Clayface unlike Matt Hagen.
Maybe one day Josh will start looking at some Hoyoverse game bosses, not that any of them are Earth related, but there's some amazing bosses in their games.
What's the game in the transition screens? And is that soundtrack part of the game?
MORE ROCK PUNS! YAY!
So who's the big yellow and brown person wirhe the huge shield in-between each number and how do they relate to the earth?
If you plan to do prehistoric or futuristic bosses at some point, then you definitely need the AI professors from Pokémon Scarlet and Violet on those lists. I was gonna say the aggressive Koraidon and Miraidon battles alone, but then I remembered that the battle is scripted to win. I'd find it cooler if it was possible to lose, but I still enjoy it.
please please tell me Titan from FF16 is Number 1 that fight was !@#$ing EPIC
Honorable mention
Augustine from infamous second son
We fight for Rock and Stone!
Yay for #2! Flint Marko has always been one of my favorite Spidey rogues.
Yes! My element! Thank you!
In the first Naruto Ultimate Ninja Storm game, the Shukaku fight absolutely delivers
14:30 note to kids: invest in flashlights…
No wonder i haven't heard much about ff16, it ain't even out yet where I live. Series kind dropped off my radar, haven't payed much attention to it because it was either 15 or the 7 remake getting all the press. Until today, i didn't even KNOW 16 was on its way out.
Funny to see both Clayface and Sandman on this list.
I didn't expect Bouldergeist to be on the list due to being on the thumbnail of the video.
I enjoy the clayface song that was funny and then I love the part where you tried to pronounce the cactus boss fight name from legend of Zelda Link between worlds and you said Ziggy stardust and then Markiplier "did I have a stroke!?"
Guess this answered my question on if Your’e gonna choose A Pokemon Trainer who specializes in Rock, Ground, OR BOTH🪨🌏😆
Why did you have to remind me of Dirge's CREEPY ASS EYES!!!!
the puns ar sub terran…. i love it
Fun fact about Clayface: Basil Karlo isn’t the Only Clayface there’s Matt Hagen, Preston Payne, Sondra Fuller, Cassius Payne, Todd Russell, Josh Williams, and Ethan Bennett
I would have picked Cragalanche Kid Icarus Uprising or Thardaus from Metroid Prime
I figured some Megaman boss had to show up. The original has several, such as Jewel “best shield in the series” Man, and technically Guts Man, since his attack is “I threw a rock at him! It was a big rock…”
Oddly enough, the guy named Ground Man isn’t earth themed; his weapon is blade-type (a drill).
Ok I was not expecting Desert Man lol I was expecting to see a certain hairbow wearing elemental critter voiced by Tidus but surprised to not see him mentioned AT ALL. Interesting list of characters my good man
Interesting how even the number two boss on this list had to have "but also this is why it's not the best ever". Is Earth just that weakly represented? 😅😅
And now for obligatory FFXIV mention:
BOWDOWNOVERDWELLER
BOWDOWNOVERDWELLER
BOWDOWNOVERDWELLER
TITAN!!
Nice list. Some suggestions I can come up with are Groudon (specifically from Mystery Dungeon 2), Sillydillo from Forgotten Land, Jiao from Tales of Xillia (or Dohalim from Arise)
Well, I guess this list has a heart of stone.
How come when mentioning mole knight, didn't bring up when faced them in Shovel Knight Dig (Albeit, they were more a water boss there)?
