Strategy

Kingdom Hearts III

Marshmallow is one of the bosses of Arendelle, fought mid-way through the world. His main attacks are two forms of a fist swipe. If he performs a one-two combo with his hands, both swipes can be blocked, but the second will trigger Risk Dodge. If he performs a double-fist clap, block and immediately counter. He can also jump to create a shockwave, which will trigger Risk Dodge. His third attack is breathing a gust of ice, which will freeze Sora if not blocked. It can be blocked, however, and if blocked, Sora should follow with a counterattack after the combo ends.

Fire attacks will temporarily stun him. Littered on the battlefield are three bendable trees; occasionally, Goofy will prompt Sora to use the Tree Whip Team Attack, where as Marshmallow gets closer to them, they must fling one of the trees at him. Each usage of Tree Whip reduces the number of bendable trees by one. Eventually, he will cover himself in spikes and enter Armor Mode. His attacks are much more aggressive in this state. Luckily, all his attacks can be blocked. It is recommended to block all his slashes, wait for him to pause, and quickly use Counter Slash to deal damage. Then immediately block his next series of slashes, and repeat until the armor is destroyed.

It is recommended to use Keyblades that have blocking abilities even during Formchanges. The Favorite Deputy is most recommended because it can deal high melee damage with its Hyper Hammer and Drill Punch Formchanges, while also having blocking abilities. Likewise, the Hero's Origin is also a good choice due to Counter Shield dealing high damage with reprisals. With the right tactics Marshmallow will fall with ease.

Tree Whip (ツリーウィップ
Tsurī Wippu
?)
Physical 4.0 Can be used when prompted by Goofy if one of the three bendable trees on the field is still available. Goofy will call Sora over to a bent tree that Marshmallow will jump in front of and slowly advance towards. They will hold onto the tree until the button is let go, and if it's let go at the right time, they will hit Marshmallow with the tree, knocking him out of his armored state and stunning him for 5 seconds. If X is not pressed within 2 seconds of the ATTACK! prompt appearing, Marshmallow will strike the tree and the attack will fail.
Using Tree Whip reduces the number of bendable trees by one.
