- ―Shoe Man, Make a Good Mega Man Level 3
Shoe Man is a Robot Master from Make a Good Mega Man Level 3, found at the end of The Invincible Robot Army! Featuring Shoe Man!. He is a shoe-themed robot with a body that is almost completely impervious to damage. In addition to his role as entry boss, after clearing the Wily Stadium Shoe Man appears as an NPC in Tier 1.
Battle[edit]
Shoe Man is fought atop a Light Platform suspended over furnace blocks, which the latter is always standing on. He is completely invincible, and reflects all weapons. Shoe Man primarily leaps around the room, while making openings in the Light Platform wherever he lands. Ocassionally, he will jump up and kick a pair of Track Shoes at Mega Man. After a few leaps, he'll jump to either side of the room and randomly use one of his techniques, never using the same one twice in a row:
- Jump straight up and kick a volley of six Track Shoes at Mega Man.
- Hold onto the wall, then fly on a straight line to the opposite wall. Upon reaching it, he jumps up to the ceiling, charges up, and slams down to the floor, causing the Light Platform to vanish very quickly for a moment.
- Run in place for a period before charging straight ahead, running up the wall, then running across the ceiling to Mega Man's position; after which he drops down.
After executing any of these techniques, he will strike a T-pose and do nothing for a few seconds. While posing, he can be hit with any attack, causing him to gradually trip and fall onto the furnace blocks. This will inflict a large chunk of damage to Shoe Man, and is the only way of harming him. The Bait Bobber will instantly knock him over while T-posing, while the Break Dash will always knock Shoe Man over regardless of his current action.
