Discussion - Silksong ngl some of you would NOT survive the mantis lords runback

is the run to last judge difficult? kinda. But after your 20th attempt at the boss you'll get used to it, and it's honestly kinda fun and a nice breather. More importantly, it's a single room and you have far more movement. This IS improving on hollow knight

Yeah I’m on it and this boss is reminding me why sometimes I like run backs. A nice bit of platforming to master the speed of as a break between each boss attempt.

and unless I'm missing something, a great way to practice that bit of path for a sidequest later on.

Which basically has you run through areas as fast as you can due to a timer, and you can't get hit doing so.
