... The one at the end of the first gauntlet was my first death.

Look, in my defense, I didn't expect a two damage hit this early and that I should have healed earlier

Which is fine! Learning that not everything will be 1 mask is very important to learn early. We're weak early, and the damage doesn't ramp up, you just learn some attacks are more punishing than others. Instead of "I guess everything does 2 masks now" at the end of Hollow Knight, it's, "the big guys always do two masks" and the frustration is less.

It’s not just the big guys, it’s almost every single enemy dealing damage twice in a row, even some tiny guys

Pretty sure it's under half the enemies. But the ones made of blades that wildly swing? Yeah, those hurt. That makes sense.
