Mantis Lords – Hollow Knight

Pattern recognition and study are significantly beneficial here. The fight is such that you fight all three Mantis Lords in the encounter, starting with one Mantis Lord and then being double-teamed by the remaining two, as a rather severe upgrade of the previous “test” of an encounter. The Mantis Lords appear and disappear quickly during the fight so your attack opportunities are limited, initially seeming like you’re trying to focus simply on staying alive. Choose your attack openings well and don’t go for more hits than is necessary.
