Knucklemaster

Knucklemaster is a gigantic Master that serves as the Skull Woods Boss in The Legend of Zelda: A Link Between Worlds. Knucklemaster appears to be a gigantic hand made of flesh with a single eye in its palm and coated in an iron gauntlet to protect itself. It is guarding the portrait of Seres who was sent into the dark forest by Yuga after he fused with Ganon.

Behavior
Knucklemaster's body is invulnerable to most attacks, so Link must find a way to attack its eye. Its main attack is clutching into a fist and ramming Link. This can only be avoided by jumping out of the way with the Tornado Rod or by turning into a painting. Link must perform one of those two actions to have Knucklemaster ram into the wall and be stunned for a while, which exposes its eye and makes it vulnerable to attacks. After recovering, it will attempt to squash Link repeatedly. This is not only dangerous on its own, but it also destroys the fragile parts of the floor, making it harder to maneuver. After sustaining enough damage, Knucklemaster will get faster and attempt to squash Link more often, but the strategy to defeat it remains the same. Link will be rewarded with a Heart Container and Seres will be freed from her painting after its defeat.
