Video Not Working? Fix It Now

A 25 minute discussion of how bosses operate in this game, how to learn this, predict this and then work around it. The video shows insight into the way my brain works whilst playing Salmon Run. After playing this game and mode since 2017, I've developed ways to assess and calculate strats against the enemies in the game. Though not conclusively right or wrong, I hope this can assist you if you're struggling with managing bosses and enemies in the game. Chapters: Intro: 00:00 PART ONE - Boss Aggro: 01:28 Steelheads: 03:12 Steeleels: 04:32 Maws: 05:30 Drizzlers: 06:58 Scrappers: 07:42 Slammin' Lids: 08:46 Flipper Floppers: 09:45 Stingers: 11:08 Flyfish: 11:54 Fish Sticks: 13:14 Big Shots: 13:44 Lessers (& Night Waves): 14:22 PART TWO - Boss cycles & management: 15:00 Discussion on how boss cycles affect the way you play the game. Explanation of how they force you to wait and how they use time. Discussion of how to prioritise bosses based on cycles. Specials. Grizzco weapons.
