Can you really throw holy water that fast because when I play it on Virtual console it takes a long pause before I can use another one.

@JReed1985

That long pause is the normal speed, i.e. without any power-ups.

There are power-ups that grants you faster throwing:

Watch the video again, notice how besides the hearts and lives is blank at first, then where I pick up the 'Double Throw' (Shows as Roman numeral II), then 'Triple Throw' (Shows as Roman numeral III)

is it possible to play on

PC?

NES Emulator.

(This was played on a PC)

Yeah, being smart about fighting on a video game and having a no-hit run is totally "zero skills". You're an idiot.

Show us your video then you bloody fuck. Don't just talk.

Fucking bastard you.

I can do this level without getting hit or using subweapons (up until I get to the infamous hallway) but it's been a while since I've done it. I would try again, but I keep fucking up in Stage 12.

In this boss I just use the cross as subweapon.

[huntmen19]

the boss in this level just don't know what to do, he freezes as you throw the holy water at him.

What I usually do different: I like to go up the stairs on 2:17 and throw one holy water down on the knight, that's a lot easier to me.

Also on 2:58, I prefer to move left until the fish heads blink. I then jump the first fireball straight up, then the second one towards the heads, holy water, whip spam and there I go. I think it's easier to pull off than to destroy the fire.

Anyways, excellent video, really helps a lot!

I'm actually sort of proud of myself for figuring out most of this stage on my own. What I learned is to get the triple throw and how to get past the flea men at the very beginning. That corridor right before the boss is really basterdly.

Some people may say it's cheating to spam holy water - I don't. It's REALLY tough to keep it until you fight Death, especially since any four hits on this stage kill you.

That fleaman tactic at the beginning of the video is genius. I feel stupid now...
