What does stolas soul do?

[Aftermathrar]

@thegreatMSG Boosts INT by a huge amount and reduces STR, makes all of your soul attacks do a lot more.

how the hell did you do the killer clown soul card thingy?

[Aftermathrar]

In this video, I use Final Guard canceling, which is done by using a bullet soul, then tapping R to bring out Final Guard for a split second (which cancels the bullet soul animation). As long as you don't hold R too long, it won't have any lag and you can immediately throw another Killer Clown and repeat the process.

There are a few other ways to cancel bullet souls quickly, so check out my newer boss rush (video response to this), to see them and the difference they make.

haha i noticed !your using final guard then using your projectiles which makes it fast! you used the internet for that ya know!

[Aftermathrar]

Actually, I was the one that found the final guard cancel, but it's nowhere near as good as the other cancels in the game (werewolf/backdash).

For a run where I did use internet strategies, check out my 1:22.50 boss rush, which is now a video response to this.

@Aftermathrar

wow.. thanks! 

[knighttwentyk]

@AnesBosna the way I used to do it is Bullet soul canceled into a backdash into another soul. if your back is against the wall it fires souls like no tommorow.
