How to Stop Sucking at Cuphead - Five Tricks you might not know

This video assumes you know the basics like... "Buy new weapons, change your controls until it feels comfortable, actually SHOOT the boss, etc." You're not a noob. We both know that.
I've looked at a few popular "Cuphead tips and tricks" videos on YouTube and I've tried to put stuff that wasn't already repeated too often.
Note that I'm not following a guide or stealing someone else's stuff. These were all tips that I learned on my own.

Thank you for specifying the RIGHT weapon instead of the best weapon! All of the videos and reddit posts I've seen tend to overlook the fact that if you're playing for the first time from scratch, you don't have access to the "best" weapons or charms early in the game.

One thing that I observed about Cuphead is that you watch the body cues from the bosses. They aren't necessarily telegraphing their moves. They set up for the attacks. You should prepare to dodge the moves. For example, Ribby (whichever wears the white outfit) leans backwards before throwing a quick barrage of fireballs. Goupie (whatever the bouncing character is) pulls his head back before attempting to headbutt you. He pulls out a boxing glove (after taking the growth pills) before trying to punch you.

Oh my. I would have never beaten the game without the weapon lock. It's really useful, especially since I used Peashooter and Spread my first time fighting basically every boss.

You're the only youtuber that helped me beat expert mode. Thank you so much I can die happy now π
-
choosing the right layout is absolutely key. that said, I don't think I have encountered a level where roundabout isn't a huge asset
-
6:21 I actually find chaser really good against the first phase, because it targets the eye balls and it destroys them before you even get hit, also in my opinion Ms chalice is good for it too

I just beat the game earlier today before having watched this video just now. All of these are extremely valuable tips and probably the most important advice for the game. I definitely increased my playtime by a lot by constantly restarting if I took a hit early, racked up over 100 hrs on my first playthrough so I still sucked but I got a lot better throughout. Some of the later bosses I found myself being pretty good with and not having as steep a learning curve with. It's a great game and a great feeling to have beaten it

On djimmy the great I got past the tomb stone wave bc I spammed pause giving me time to react. The problem is that there is a menu in the way but I still manage to dodge the attacks

mAN, U ACTUAL LEGEND, BRO, IM SO GLAD U COULD EXPLAIN EVERYTHING SO WELL IN DETAILL (especially the dashing section, eVERYONE NEEDED THAT)
-
Bonus tip: Use dash to go through narrow passage. For you see, when Cuphead dashes, his hitbox gets shorter. So you can dash in stead of ducking sometimes.

3:13 I have the the exact same problem with this. she has cost me so many runs because that happened so many times. Thanks for the help.

I love the way you present it. And love your comments

Also just so people know the weapon lock is good for Cagney carnation because when he goes across the whole screen I sometimes accidentally fall through shooting him by jumping and the weapon lock prevents that.

thanks for the tips!
