#630 Elan Doree (SAT) Bosses (2/2): Black Knight playthrough.
A playthrough of the sub-boss Black Knight in the Sega Saturn port of Sega's Touryuu Densetsu Elan Doree.
In contrast to his final form, the Black Knight is significantly quicker. He doesn't hit as hard as the Kaiser Dragon, but his combos are easy to utilise and he combos into his special moves incredibly well. Given his speed and the priority of most of his moves, this makes him incredibly formidable as he can potentially an opponent with complete ease. The only real trouble I had in this playthrough was the Kaiser Dragon himself, as I had to get up close and personal in order to damage him. And, well, the Kaiser Dragon's Schtick is that he has a whole bunch of moves to defend himself around close ranged attacks, making for a pretty difficult boss fight on the whole, though certainly not impossible. Black Knight makes for a good and unique addition to the game therefore, and along with Kaiser Dragon might be the best two-form boss, on originality and variety alone.
That wraps up this obscure little game. Next up, we finally get to the Psychic Force series.
