Sonic Mania – How to Dodge the Phantom Egg’s Teleporting Hand Attack

sonic-mania

In Titanic Monarch Act 2, the Phantom Egg boss has an attack with two red holographic hands that teleport you to a different room if they catch you.

No matter how long I try avoiding his attack, it always seem to catch me. I've even tried letting the hands catch Tails instead, but that leaves a second hand that won't stop chasing me.

How do I dodge the Phantom Egg's teleporting hand attack? Is it even possible?

As far as I know, no it's not possible. I've tried a bunch of things, and I've never seen a video of it being done.

In fact, usually I jump directly into the hands because at least one of the mini-boss levels contains rings, and they're all pretty easy to avoid once you know their pattern.
