Use a cheesy tactic to beat the sumo boss in Shadow Warrior 2 by hiding behind a picture and using a ripper heart for Lo Wang's AI.

Walkthrough
  1. 1
    Locate the large picture in the area.
  2. 2
    Go through the picture to find several fortune cookies.
  3. 3
    Turn around and shoot the sumo boss from behind the picture; he cannot fight back as he cannot see you.
  4. 4
    To make this tactic more effective, use a ripper heart to let the other Lo Wang (your AI companion) assist. He has a rail gun that shoots five times the speed of yours and better aim.
  5. 5
    This should take only 1 or 2 ripper hearts to defeat the boss.
  6. 6
    Only use a ripper heart if you want to conserve your ammo for the battle with Zilla.
  7. 7
    After defeating the sumo boss, grab the SILVER KEY in the center of the room and any other necessary items.
  8. 8
    Head back outside and make your way down the path, then up the volcano through the clouds.
  9. 9
    Face SouthWest and continue until you reach the silver key door on the left side of your map.
  10. 10
    Use the SILVER KEY on the door and proceed through.
  11. 11
    You will slide down a ramp; take a right and continue until you reach the Serpent God's lair.
  12. 12
    Kill the Serpent God and return to where you slid down the ramp.
  13. 13
    Grab the yellow key in the middle and hit the switch next to the ramp to change it into stairs.
  14. 14
    Go back up the stairs and exit through the silver key door.
  15. 15
    Set your compass to North and proceed in that direction.
  16. 16
    The yellow key door will be visible in the distance.
  17. 17
    Use the yellow keycard on the door and go through.
  18. 18
    Hit the lever inside to create a hole in the lava on top of the volcano.
  19. 19
    Jump down the hole and kill the Guardians.
  20. 20
    Follow the path, killing guardians along the way, until you reach an area with four fortune cookies.
  21. 21
    Hit the switch to open the door ahead.
  22. 22
    Go through the door and down the ramp to face Zilla.

Zilla Boss Fight Details:

Zilla is a tough opponent. The tilting floor will make aiming difficult, which is Zilla's advantage. Your advantage is that he is slow but fast when using his weapons. You can strafe more easily than he can. He has a significant amount of energy, so it takes a while to defeat him. Try using a ripper heart to let the other Lo Wang assist with his version of the rail gun. Remember to create angles between you and Zilla.

Tips
  • Hiding behind the picture is effective because the boss cannot see you.
  • The AI companion Lo Wang has a faster rail gun and better aim, making him useful for this fight.
  • Using a ripper heart conserves your own ammo for the Zilla fight.
  • Strafing is an effective tactic against Zilla due to his slower movement.
