Notes:

  • For the first two cycles, you want to tap left before Dixie lands on the egg.
  • Always knock Krow towards the nest, as it's faster to knock him there than to have him fly there himself.
  • If your lucky on cycle 3, you won't get a fake so that you can damage boost yourself onto the nest.
  • Losing a Kong in this fight is the worst possible scenario! You need two Kongs for the next level and you will get the Diddy rap.
  • This fight is all luck, everyone hates it. Good luck.


  • On a more technical note, your RNG (or number of fakes that you will get) is predetermined on the frame that you enter the Krow fight on.
  • It also seems that by entering the fight on two independent files on the same visual frame from a hard reset does not lead to the same RNG (the same number of fakes on both files). Because of this factor, it will most likely be impossible to figure out a frame perfect setup to enter Krow on fakeless everytime.

Safe:
