11 Video Game Boss Attacks That Were Utter BS

11. Kronika's Time-Bending - Mortal Kombat 11

Mortal Kombat bosses are infamous for their cheap tactics, and the final adversary of Mortal Kombat 11, Kronika, is no exception. This towering titan can summon asteroids, health-depleting forcefields, other kombatants, and even a T-Rex.

But what makes Kronika so powerful is the fact that she's a chronomancer, meaning that time itself is her plaything. If she strikes you with Time Energy, it will drain your health bar, freeze you in place, and move you right beside her, allowing her to unleash a devastating Special or combo. Blocking isn't helpful since she can shoot Time Energy around the arena, striking you from behind. She can also perform this move while you're in a middle of hitting her, cancelling your attack. She doesn't telegraph this move in any way so there's no hint it's coming until it's too late.

She can also shoot a Time Sphere that spits out Time Energy in all directions, which is nearly impossible to dodge. Goro, Shang Tsung, and Shao Kahn may be well-known for their unfair tactics but none of these bosses hold a candle to Kronika.
