I just 300%ed the game for the first time (congrats to me) here’s my tier list on how how hard each boss was on expert
First of all wanted to mention that the bosses are NOT organized within the tiers. Sally could have taken me longer than Ribby and Croaks although she’s lower on the tier.
I gotta say I’m not surprised I first tried those 5 bosses. Easy as hell.
I was SUPER proud of myself I beat king dice after only 1 stupid death. I used heart ring and I was like hm this isn’t working so I switched to divine relic and it was easy. Not surprised at the rest of the tier.
Third tier is CRAZY I did NOT expect Beppy to be as hard as he was and The Devil and Dr Kahl took me way less attempts than i anticipated (I S ranked Dr. Kahl without even trying to get the S rank). I also expected Esther to take a bit longer. Rest of the tier makes sense.
2nd tier is also mental. I expected Chef Saltbaker to take WAY longer and Howling Aces to take like 3 attempts max. Howling aces became one of my favorite bosses because of expert mode. Wally and Grim make sense. Grim was really fun but fuck Wally warbles.
Now the biggest surprise to me, CALA MARIA TOOK 21 ATTEMPTS DUDE. I was not expecting that at ALL. I always thought the boss is stupid because it literally takes away your ability to move, while 439 eels shoot 73 projectiles at you (each) (numbers not exaggerated) I thought she would be the boss that would end my run but out of nowhere I just got to the final phase with 5 hp and won. (Fun fact my friend suggested listening to stupid ass music to calm down and relax so I can lock in better, so I put thick of it by KSI and beat it the first try after that 💔)
I was having my doubts recently but it’s solidified for me now, Cuphead is the greatest game of all time!
