[[File:K64 Magman Sprite.png|left]] '''Magman''' is the fiery, glob-like boss of [[Neo Star]] in ''[[Kirby 64: The Crystal Shards]]''. It mainly uses lava-based attacks, and can also summon [[Magoo]] and [[Burnis]] to attack Kirby. The battle begins after [[Kirby]] [[Ribbon|and]] [[Adeleine|his]] [[King Dedede|friends]] [[Waddle Dee|make]] their way into the cavern Magman makes its home in.

'''Magman''' is the fiery, glob-like protector of the [[Neo Star]], fought at the end of the realm in ''[[Kirby 64: The Crystal Shards]]''. Magman has the ability to morph his surroundings to meet his ends, and uses this early in the battle to mixed success; the very same lava used to attack Kirby is ironically the substance vulnerable to Kirby's attacks.


==Strategy==
==Battle==
{{rewrite|Way too wordy and kind of inappropriate for this wiki. Should be replaced with a more general description of the battle.}}
===Phase 1===
Facing Magman is more of a dance than a battle, as the boss will constantly keep Kirby moving with its fast attacks and platform-moving strategy. Magman tends to create pillars of lava, sometimes driving them into Kirby's platform, pushing the platforms to the ceiling, and even creates them right next to Kirby, only to curl back into the lava below. During this display, little black lava balls called [[Magoo]] will appear from the lava's depths, the very beings used to injure Magman, at the site of his lava pillars; Kirby cannot physically fight Magman face-to-face this early in the battle. After draining the majority of his energy, Magman will proceed to appear at Kirby's level, and chase him to a solid lava platform to the right, where he will vary tactics: disappearing underground, blowing fire blasts, and summoning falling rocks is quite the common strategy seen on Magman's part. Here, [[Burnis]] replace the Magoo in terms of available projectiles, and after Kirby propels a certain amount of these fire birds into Magman's body, it will admit defeat.
At the start of the battle, Magman resides in the background and can only be damaged when it attacks Kirby with lava pillars. These pillars are used in a variety of ways to manipulate the platforms Kirby is standing on, such as thrusting them at Kirby, pushing the platforms to the ceiling, and creating them right next to Kirby, where they curl downwards to the floor. During these attacks, small enemies called [[Magoo]] will appear from the lava. They can be used to obtain the [[Burning|Burn]] [[Copy Ability]], or simply inhaled and spat back out to drain Magman's health.


Like with all enemies and bosses, if Kirby is in possession of a certain [[Copy Ability|copy ability]] (i.e. [[Fire]], [[Cutter]], etc.) or a combination of two, he will be able to use such powers to injure the boss, instead of sucking in and propelling the Burnis and Magoo enemies provided, as in this battle.
===Phase 2===
After the majority of its health is drained, Magman will proceed to appear in the foreground and chase Kirby to a solid lava platform on the right. This is the only part of the battle where Magman can be directly attacked. During this phase, the boss no longer uses lava pillars, but instead tries new attacks that include disappearing underground and summoning [[Burnis]], blowing fire blasts out of its mouth, and summoning falling rocks by smashing its head into the ceiling. Once Kirby defeats Magman, the latter will surrender a Crystal Shard that is used to advance to [[Shiver Star]].


==Trivia==
== Other appearances ==
*Magman is very similar to [[Sandman]], a more minor enemy in the game. Magman is much larger and made of much hotter stuff, though.
*In ''[[Kirby's Dream Buffet]]'', Magman makes an appearance on a [[Character Treat]], using its artwork from ''Kirby 64: The Crystal Shards''.

Magman is the fiery, glob-like boss of Neo Star in Kirby 64: The Crystal Shards. It mainly uses lava-based attacks, and can also summon Magoo and Burnis to attack Kirby. The battle begins after Kirby and his friends make their way into the cavern Magman makes its home in.

Battle[edit]

Phase 1[edit]

At the start of the battle, Magman resides in the background and can only be damaged when it attacks Kirby with lava pillars. These pillars are used in a variety of ways to manipulate the platforms Kirby is standing on, such as thrusting them at Kirby, pushing the platforms to the ceiling, and creating them right next to Kirby, where they curl downwards to the floor. During these attacks, small enemies called Magoo will appear from the lava. They can be used to obtain the Burn Copy Ability, or simply inhaled and spat back out to drain Magman's health.

Phase 2[edit]

After the majority of its health is drained, Magman will proceed to appear in the foreground and chase Kirby to a solid lava platform on the right. This is the only part of the battle where Magman can be directly attacked. During this phase, the boss no longer uses lava pillars, but instead tries new attacks that include disappearing underground and summoning Burnis, blowing fire blasts out of its mouth, and summoning falling rocks by smashing its head into the ceiling. Once Kirby defeats Magman, the latter will surrender a Crystal Shard that is used to advance to Shiver Star.
