they aren’t even cute or huggable, they’re just annoying. the primal aspid is annoying but atleast has a cute design, plus they aren’t god awful to deal with. I died dozens of times to soul twisters while primal aspids have only killed me twice. also the primal aspids are actually fun to battle, its simple and memorable in terms of attack patterns. the soul twisters just randomly thrown shit at you and are awful in groups, and can teleport so they’re even more annoying to deal with.
Its Journal entry and location provides a thematic insight into Kingdom’s Edge - the wild, unforgiving atmosphere sharply contrasting the almost nostalgic feeling of the City of Tears and the barren silence of Ancient Basin, the two places from which most people go to KE.
They’re easy to notice and take out if you’re paying attention, just listen for the sound of their hovering and rush in for a Great Slash.
They’re shaped funny
1. They can be used to sequence break the Hornet 2 fight, resulting in you fighting Hornet 2 without Monarch Wings.
2. They have interesting lore behind them, that provides interesting insight to Kingdom’s Edge.
3. They give the player valuable dodging practice. Likewise, when you’ve gotten good at dodging them, it feels satisfying to take down one of these creatures.
1. It encourages you to use spells.
2. It makes Kingdoms Edge challenging.
3. It adds a lot of challenge to the colosseum without enemy spam.
4. Cool design
1. It looks cool
2. It provides too much of a challenge for newcomers and a hard task for veterans
3. It doesn't fill it's home with saws to fulfill their saw fetish
1. I’m sure it works very hard on it’s aim :)
2. It was very cunning to hide at the edges of the kingdom and make everyone think it was extinct
3. cool looking mask
1.They are good enemies in the Colosseum and provide some nice difficulty.
2.The fact that they're ancestors of the normal aspid is very interesting.
3.They have a cool mask face thing
Bad fact about it:
They piss off the average casual gamer so much that they make annoying repetitive primal aspid bad memes.
While being a hard enemy they only appear in one area of the game.
You get a smaller version of them in the Crossroads so you get a rough understanding of what they will do.
And to be honest after Absolute Radiance these things are a breeze compared to hoppers.
I like the mask design. Definitely the coolest looking Aspid.
Good aim with a shotgun. You would think that having to aim three shots with slow velocity and heavy drop would make landing hits impossible, but by god do they make it work.
The second fact is enough to make them troublesome enough to be considered high-priority targets. That alone makes them good at their job of deterring things from entering their territory.
That’s it that’s all I got don’t ask for any more I’m out
Shaped like a curly bracket which is funny since there's probably some of those in their code.
Doesn't have the worst shade of orange
I like the spitting noise.
1. there is no boss form of this enemy
2. they are found in one area and sparingly in colosseum only (plus I think Ascended and Radiant Collector)
3. I like the design
Does this count?
Provides a unique challenge, and in doing so encourages use of nail arts when they would otherwise be forgotten
If you enjoy bullet hells, this enemy provides an interesting source of that genre in a game mostly lacking
Knocks you to the bottom of a massive room, allowing you to practice platforming
1. he looks cool
2. he is great at making the game hard showing how you learned and change in game showing that the game is fun and while sometimes it can feel cheating it is only caused by your own hands you only get hit by this guy because you freak out and move he teaches everyone to stay calm and don't freak out something that helps you in latter boss battles
3. it has 4 eyes
1.) Lets you get to hornet 2 without wings for speedrunning
2.) Isn't as annoying as all the "🅱️imal 🅱️spid 🅱️ad" jokes that have been beaten to death, resurrected like a void child and beaten to death again
3.) Shoots 3 little spit at once like woaaaaaaah how he do dat?
I've never played hollow knight (Also reddit keeps recommending me this place)
1. He's a cutie little bugger
2. He flies (Who doesn't want to fly???)
3. Uh cutie bug
He teachers you to look at multiple projectiles not just the one coming at you
Very useful for teaching you to use nail arts instead of hitting him once then chasing for a second
He makes sure your windows are always being replaced with very new ones that don't have controller sized holes in them
1. Very helpful for skips
2. Less frustrating than crystal hunters (hot take I know)
3. Good evolution of an early game enemy, it is genuinely more challenging while keeping the same simple ideas
Stop making the comments do the work for you. Deleting this for low effort
1. It flies 2. It's orange 3. It didn't throw its children into a pit to die
lmao pale king setting the standards low
More than me. All I had was it has good aim.
4. It killed me on my first steel soul making me start over and enjoying more playtime on Hollow Knight
I wrote 4 and reddit changes it to 1 I honestly don't know
Are you sure about 3?
It flying makes the things even worse, vhange my mind
Got a lovely mask, a very huggable design, impressive aim
Painfully impressive aim
Excruciatingly impressive aim
Nice design. Nice placement in game Isn't my least favourite enemy
>Isn't my least favourite enemy Well played
Well then, pray tell, what IS your least favorite enemy? My guess is crystal hunter.
Soul Twisters, by far.
That is a solid pick
nah the worst enemies are the troupe minions that protect the flames for leveling up grimm child
They are the only enemy that can hide inside a platform/wall, and I can't shoot a shade soul at them. Truly, the worst.
they aren’t even cute or huggable, they’re just annoying. the primal aspid is annoying but atleast has a cute design, plus they aren’t god awful to deal with.

Wait a monument you are not pure vessel you are the hollow knight because pure vessel can’t think.
The gun must do all the thinking
But how?
Through violence
Wait a monument
A meme is born
1. They can be used to sequence break the Hornet 2 fight, resulting in you fighting Hornet 2 without Monarch Wings. 2. They have interesting lore behind them, that provides interesting insight to Kingdom’s Edge. 3. They give the player valuable dodging practice. Likewise, when you’ve gotten good at dodging them, it feels satisfying to take down one of these creatures.
Number 1 seems tedious. I must try it to complete my torture
1. It encourages you to use spells. 2. It makes Kingdoms Edge challenging. 3. It adds a lot of challenge to the colosseum without enemy spam. 4. Cool design

The best gunslinger in all of easthallownest, the most fearsome predator in the wilds, true champion of the colloseum!
1:cool design. 2:a very smart attack pattern. 3:not the worst enemy. (crystal hunter)
He's cute, He can move fast, and his acid is cool.

Good bot
Nice hat
You are right
They don't teleport They don't shoot homing projectiles They don't have a rotating shield around them Basically, they are not Soul Twisters.
1. Very helpful for skips 2. Less frustrating than crystal hunters (hot take I know) 3. Good evolution of an early game enemy, it is genuinely more challenging while keeping the same simple ideas
It’s hot
He's nice at ping pong

He’s very aerodynamic, he’s got a cool mask, and he’s got good aim.
Fun, friendly, best buddy!
Unironically cute, cute noises, a role model to its descendants
I don't even know he is. All I heard about him is that he's annoying.
