When the manual keeps giving you the most obvious advices throughout the whole game... And most of them are "to win, you have to get good". :hap:

When the Hoodoo puts a shield on you which blocks all your pitiful attacks... and then another Hoodoo shows up and puts a magic shield on the other Hoodoo just to rub salt in the wound. :noel:

Perhaps you could use your shield to kill the other hoodlum, then the shielded one!

I think at one point I've even managed to kill a Hoodlum protected by a Hoodoo somehow, and then the Hoodoo never returned... Poor guy just quitted his job. :mefiant:
Guess that one could go in the too good topic then. :noel:

I was able to get that to happen the most right before the snowboarding section in SBtC :)

I think the one I defeated this way was in the Hoodlum Headquarters.

When Rayman grabs you through the screen for a vibe check (which you've obviously failed).

Oh it must have been the Spineroo then! I know of several other places where this can occur, heh

There's a couple you can kill with the Shock Rocket in part 2. Are those the ones you're thinking of? Not to mention that Hoodoo-protected Hoodboom in LotLD who can commit suicide! :pascontent:

When Hoodbooms kill all the other hoodlums and then themselves, while you're trying to score, because they know you can't handle them!

It's in the room with the Shock Rocket indeed, but I remember getting them through normal combat, unless I didn't pay attention well-enough to what happened to the Hoodoo...
Also I didn't know it could do that :lol:

When the Hoodoo never shows up and softlock you in the game forever.

Imagine if Betilla gave you a rigged power-up there like she does in Redemption's Demise mode. :bad:

When Darktoon beats you... In his first fight. During the cutscene.
