The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild player Dark Souls the crap out of a miniboss fight

The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild's combat system allows for a brutal ass-whooping if you know what you're doing. This guy gets it.

The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild is full of some pretty tough minibosses that'll give you a run for your money if you're not prepared.

For the majority of us, that means stocking up on a plethora of eilxirs, and not even considering taking them on until our HP gauge has been significantly bolstered with heart vessels. But Jimmyqballs doesn't give a fig about such things.

"This was my second time with the game," reads the video description, "and was still getting the hang of how combat works."

Well that explains why he was struggling so much. Seriously, Jimmy?

He strolls in with three hearts and one extra sliver of stamina, and beats the crap out of a Red Lynel. These sons-of-mothers will one shot you to the grave, and Jimmy parries and flurries his way to victory like it's nothing.

These commbat mechanics aren't a secret and in the first few hours of the game, a shrine will introduce you to them, but timing is key to executing them correctly.

Jimmyqballs also takes on the Silver Lynel in the Coliseum Ruins without taking any damage, and of course, he emerged victorious.

The fight was won with no eilxirs, no runes, no fancy weapons, and no clothes. Bravo, sir.

How are you getting on with Breath of the Wild? Have you mastered the art of parry and flurry? Chime in below.
