The Root Pack Is The First Boss In The Game ‘Cuphead’, He has three phases, first being a potato which shoots out dirt balls and parryable worms, Second phase spawns a onion which if you shoot its tears fall out from the sky which are easy to dodge. The Third Phase is a carrot that spawns mini carrots from the sky and shoots laser beams through his third eye.
