Listen to the Critical Role podcast: goo.gl/jVwPBr
Vox Machina struggles to survive after their battle with the Duergar King and Queen, our heroes broken and battered. Tiberius and Lady Kima turned to stone, and Vax’ildan and Scanlon badly wounded, the party flees the Duergar keep, not knowing where the Sorceress Queen Ulara has stolen off to with their Goliath companion. Realizing how far they’ve pushed themselves, they seek respite in the shadows and thankfully cure their stony friends with the blessings of the goddess, Sarenrae (tenuous though they may be). Relying on Vex’ahlia’s knowledge of the underdark and her knack for tracking her prey, the weary travelers press on into the deep. They come across yet another abomination in the dark, and battle the queer creature in a sea of bone and glass, Percy felling it with a thunderous crash from Bad News. Finally leaving the wretch behind them, they spy a fire twinkling in the distance...

It's hilarious how Laura goes from aggressively caring for her fictional pet bear to constantly forgetting about her fictional pet traumatized weasel
Let’s be real, she still forgot about Trinket until late C1 with the Pokéball
I mean bear vs weasel... bear easily outweighs weasel
Campaign 2 episode 106 (Ukatoah) is my favorite "forgot about her weasel" moment 🤣🤣🤣
Let's be fair, Sprinkle has survived things that Trinket would never have, just because everyone forgets about him. Pretty sure it's an unnatural being at this point, just to make it make sense.
when sprinkle gets an initiative and attacks, you see if she forgets
Trinket falls...
Vex:I would like to rage.
+Joshua Guanzon (In Grogs voice) xD
Joshua Guanzon I call click bait
That's how you multi class into a barbarian xD
Wait...by murdering bears??? 😨
That sounds horribly inefficient....
I love how worried Laura and Vex are for Trinket. You can hear it in her voice.
Classic D&D campaign.
A holy warrior of good who you were sent to rescue: "I don't like her."
A tentacled abomination of the underdark that you found in a cave: "WOOHOO! Yeah! Go Clarota!
Tyler Kemery But Clarota is kinda cute
I mean he is pretty funny for a horrid Eldritch monster whom literally sucks brains
Partner with Tentacles, if this is in Japan we ALL know where this is going.
to be fair: Holy Warrior's first action after she was rescued by the party: Grabs Pike's mace and splatters an already defeated guard with it
tentacled abomination's first action: Negotiating a temporary allianc with the party while making clear it is just that and nothing more.
... Which one would you trust more?
@@achimsinn7782 well i'd pardon the one who was tortured, sure Clarota didn't eat a lot and was an outcast but torture is trying to hurt someone the most and the longest
"Disadvantage because you're wearing heavy armor" will be carved on Pikes tombstone.
Matt's obvious pleasure in Vex figuring out she still has hunter's mark and can track the queen is the best thing ever
@@rishavchakravarty3577 Look we late to the party my guy, Lets just let it happen
Was just going to say the same thing yassss!
I just noticed the same thing and came to look and see if I was the only one that saw it lol
@@rishavchakravarty3577 my thoughts too, to point I went back and re-watched the end of Episode 7 to see. She did her attack then remembered she hadn't moved it to her, and never said she was going to even as her bonus action at the end. Then the queen teleported away, so I don't think the Queen had it on her. Though for purpose of story it worked nice, and it kind of, she forgot to use it before the attack, so maybe idea was that they all thought that she had then put it on after the attack, so let it slide?
@@rishavchakravarty3577 Oh, I am sure however they did it, he would have told them where she is, by either Hunters Mark or Keyleth using beast things, or Vex being in the underdark, whatever it is, they would have gotten there. I was just curious if she actually had done it. It is a nice touch really. I mean, fairly sure in the escape/damage/sleeping she should count as having lost concentration on the spell, but it makes it more fun for the game to let some things slide. "The Rule of Cool". Game I play in, DM often is willing to allow things for fun, our dual wielding fighter threw two hand axes at once, his argument being if he can fight with two swords equally, why can't he throw two axes. DM found idea fun so went with it. Plus, more fun to just run with these things anyway than totally stick to all rules all the time.
I like to imagine that Clarence dies a little bit inside every time they make a bad pun
*praise the sun* - It's even worse when he can sense the sincerity in their minds. He knows that they honestly think it's funny, and he does not agree.
What do you mean by a 'bad' pun? All puns are the best of the best of jokes. Clarence is a hater, and you know what we do with haters - We dab on them.
He made it clear at the start he *HATES* puns.
It's even worse: he can read their minds. Every even worse pun that they thought of buy decided was too stupid even for VM would be projected to him.
So that's why he kept missing
Matt Mercer: Gives an epic 5 minute long speech telling a tale of might, magic, woe, and justice as he expands on what is clearly an incredibly deep character steeped in lore.
Matt Mercer 30 seconds later: **goofy bear noises**
Get you man who can do both.
D&D in a nutshell
Also Matt Mercer: *doin a funky dance* Ohhh abyssal abominations
Ah yes, back when the game was still casual enough that Travis could blow off a game to see the Avengers movie.
And now laura walks out of awards shows to play....
@@HobbitPower1138 That was so fucking boss lol. I was actually watching the award show and CR at the same time waiting to see if she would win, and then she showed up on CR first!! I was like wtf?! lol
@@OmniValor could I get some context? Im new here
@@deathless12345678 in campaign 2 Laura Bailey (who plays Vex in this campaign) walked out of an award show that she had a chance of winning in order to be on Critical Role. she didn't end up winning an award, but it still shows how much their priorities have changed
@@GlebShvetsov i see thank you. If you have the award show name at hand i would love to know. I have become something of a fan boy in the last few weeks
I'm so sad that no one laughed at Scanlan's "This is a Grizzly situation" joke, it was a goddamn masterpiece.
Ikr? I definitely laughed out loud, but I think the mood was legit serious that no one really caught what he said.
also the "bear chest" remark.
I keep waiting for Clarota to get angry at the puns again. :D
I was like
SAM! You're Scanlan right now not Teddie! stop making bear puns lol
It was ok
I like how you can just tell what NPC Matt is acting as before he says anything with the ways he contorts his face and body language. Truly a glorious actor and DM.
He should become a voice actor
@@mr.e7541Yeah, he would be a really good voice actor.
Commoners: *have 4 HP*
Matt: "Kittens have 5 HP"
Therefore, most commoners would lose a fight with a kitten
Tbf commoners lose a fight against pretty much anything with stats. Even small animals
Have you ever fought a kitten? They scratch and bite even when they love you
Try giving a cat a pill
good dodge.
My friend is a doctor in an emergency hospital. According to him they needed to amputate a man's arm after a fight with a kitten. That is an extreme case, but still...
The look of disappointment on Matt’s face when they made the joke about Kima and Clarota was friggin priceless
HostileBrownie when was this I missed it 😅
@@tigerlilly5849 46:55 ^^
Andrea Biagioni haha tysm 💜
Almost sprayed my coffee on the screen when he said that
I ship it
Here's a little story for you. After watching Critical Role a few times I picked up the 5e phb, my first rpg in around 30 years, and dm'd a homebrew adventure for my 4 kids and wife, using Mercer's style. We only stopped after 5 hours. 5 hours of quality family time, during which I took them all from a shipwreck equipped only with rags to the brink of death multiple times in intense encounters. My 6 yr old paladin eventually found his courage, wearing ringmail and armed with a javelin, leaping forward at a direwolf to protect his family. My 12 yr old wizard found a spellbook covered in fur suspiciously like our pet dog, that clung to his head with 10 tiny pink arm/legs. A giant eagle almost killed the entire party using hit and fly tactics before they had found missile weapons, but my 8 yr old cast entangle to hold it down. My wife couldn't believe how amazing it was. Thank you Critical Role!
But giant eagles are good creatures
That was so good I'm crying by the way it doesn't matter if I'm a Giant Eagle is a friendly creature or not it can be turned into a hostile
@@TreVotheJoke ok but it would have more story to why it attacked
@@calindboard5114 truth and I am also board
@@TreVotheJoke the joke is it's my last name
DM: It's scared of her.
Pike, in a cute voice: Yeah! That's right!
I can just imagine Travis walking in and being like “what’s going on? What are we doing?” And everyone kinda being like “Well... we kinda lost you”
Kind of makes it a good thing he went out to a movie this episode doesn't it?
"..."
"Again"
He chose a movie over D&D... Tsk tsk.
i feel like his response would just be "well im not surprised"
@Corvus Well, sitting through an entire 3 hour session doing nothing the whole time, would be kind of boring...

You didn't have to do this, but you did it for other people. May god be with ye.
This needs all the likes
Commenting to boost
Need more people like you
Blessing of Flando upon ye!
Lol .love the dynamic of the group.
"Is it a girl?""No its a guy""Ok then, then I'm calling it a girl to make fun of it"
*pause...*
*entire party starts yelling at Scanlon* lol
TheWorldAccordingToSamuel it was trigglypuffs
Honestly, his logic convinced me. "I think that IT is a chauvinist!"
Think about it, you're using a bigot's biases against them. It works because they're a bad person. It's beautiful.
if this was said now cancelled but if roles reversed and called a girl a guy as an insult fine also chauvinist so can't hate
@@5pid597 Sure bud
@@AtlasNL It’s probably true. You can disagree about the value judgment without gaslighting the poor bloke.
I love the reaction whenever Matt says "how do you wanna do this?"
It's like some kind of Pavlovian Conditioning.
I mean its basically the DM saying "think of the coolest way you can kill this guy using what you attacked with"
My zemnian (german) Dm says this too and no one besides him and me saw cr so far, but we all party when he says it... (This is also how I got into Cr)
In episode 1 Liam looks at the camera and says "We live to hear Matt say 'how do you want to do this.'"
To be fair, Dms have been doing this (to some extent or another) since 97 when I started playing. That being said, it is an ABSOLUTE hype moment for any party that is invested in a fight.
As the show progresses and into s2 and probably s3 watch for the horns in battle music. Now that is Pavlovian reflex
“I CAN USE MY HUNTERS MARK”
Matt: about friggen time
I checked. She didn't have it on the queen. She forgot to do it twice. So Matt was deciding if he was going to be forgiving or not/ trying to remember if she did it.
I got a healthy feet ad in the middle of them healing Vax's foot I am *dying* with laughter here
That’s godlike
Pike is like, the ultimate soccer mom. "You can do it, honey! There's always next time! *hugs*"
1:57:50 - "Pike is just an inspirational poster today!"
Ashley: "I touch her... arm."
Sam: Looks disappointed as hell when he hears this.
The best thing about becoming a Critter this late is that I have immunity to week-long suspense checks
Aye, til you get caught up all the way to the third campaign.
Yeah butt he downside is you're probably still not caught up after all this time
Welp itl take me awhile pretty coool
Lol “and we’ll be taking a break for the next week” me: “oh no…. Anyways”
@@python1972 sorry for the 5 month reply delay but correct. As of now, I am on Campaign 2 Episode 31
The recap is from 15:47 to 17:25, at which point the game starts. It runs without break to 2:51:52.
[I've been doing this for every episode. If you find them useful, or think others might, please leave a comment so they stay near the top where they can be found. Thank you.]
There you are, had to scroll a bit this time
Back to the top. Thanks for doing this
Thanks for these; they're so useful.
:)
Thank you again
Remember the time when Scanlan made a man give up on breathing?
Good times
@@artsyebonyrose The only time in all my years of playing DnD that I have a seen a bard kill someone with that ability is here and TFS at the Table. Both....amazing stories and DM's (though Mercer is the best)
@@BinTtown honestly bards are underrated and underestimated as hell lmao
@@artsyebonyrose Yeah, I agree. But how often do you get to see them actually kill something with that power? Like never :P
@@BinTtown Killing someone with vicious mockery is every bard's true dream.
I swear that Matt Mercer just holding 3 books and doing fingerguns is the best part of the intro after Scanlan's.
Matt,Sam and travis's parts in the intro are so good. The others seem a little forced except maybe tiberius.
@@biot7175 what things?
@@jonahyogman6282 gay things. I am very gay for her 😍
@@crodthesorrysap4165 Liam, Laura and Taliesin seem pretty close to how I imagine their characters honestly. If I'm going to get picky (Warning!) the ones that don't have their proper weapons do bother me. Ashley's shot is dead sexy and I feel bad for Marisha as hers is ruined by her trouble wielding the staff. The Matt Mercer one was cool but it's already lost some impact for me and I think it's because its dependent on the surprise factor.
yes, the fingerguns are life lmao
I loved Matt's face when they were debating the size of the mending wheel, that motherly kind of look when he makes a face at Tiberius.
That pause and then, "....Tiberius."
Matt was smiling, but I believe he was thinking "Orion, are you fucking serious right now?" He's just too nice to actually say that.
Matt was definitely withholding annoyance, lol. What Tiberius was doing-- logistics aside-- was stealing a rp moment from Ashley. I've played with people like this... don't know when to let others have the spotlight.
@@ccRask They're the worst, we just kicked one of those out of the group, our DM had bought in a character from one player's past and he actually said 'I hate this character and I don't care about her backstory, so I'm going to everlund'. The DM ended up having to split the party purely because this didn't directly involve him.
@@adamwest1138 jfc.... kicking people is such a pain and heartache, even if it's for the better. I'm glad you got rid of them but sorry you had to have to do that. Wish people could just get it through their heads that not everything is about them/their character.
@@ccRask It was extra hard since he's a friend we've had for 20 years, but no one at the table was having fun with him there. Thankfully we're still friends, he just comes over for board games now. DnD is alot more enjoyable now
Scanlan: Are you stuck like this?
Tiberius the God: No, I can change back anytime I want but I really like how I look.
"This is a grizzly situation"
Scanlan is no doubt the greatest.
+Drew Peterson It was kinda overlooked but it was actually quite good XD
Sucks that it was an overlooked joke :(
"bear chest" gets a mention
I laughed so hard when I saw it, but no one else got it or they just ignored him, lol. I love the tweets for it though. :p
I just want to be that guy and point out that she did not transfer the hunters mark to the Queen because she forgot to do so before attacking in the previous battle. It is in fact on the dead king. Derp derp.
If only Scanlan beat the monster with his Savage Insults, I would have died of laughter. "How do you want to do this?" "I INSULT HIS MOTHER!"
ye... why scanlan affects with his words ppl that do not speak his language is ... a bit weird right?
Did you watch the last episode? He killed a guy by viciously mocking him to death.
Yo momma so ugly, her charisma's a zero!
creature: freaking dies.
He's just like: you ugly you ugly ur mama says u ugly
Martin Berisso With high enough Charisma (as well as certain vocal tones and gestures) compliments and insults _transcend language barriers_ .
Vax: Lady Keema, Clarota, may I suggest you take the first watch?
Scanlan: *gasps* What if they start f***ing?
I laughed so hard!!!🤣
Sam: "Yeah, well I'm so demeaning, I call it a girl"
Ashley & Laura: So you have chosen death
Hi I'm here over 3 years too late but I'm watching Critical Role for the first time and let me just say that "This is a grizzly situation" was SUCH an overlooked joke in the moment and both Scanlan and Sam need to be protected at all costs.
Lol yes he does
Couldn't agree more. Came from harmonsquest and this is waaaay better
Welcome to the fam!
Glad to see new people are still discovering this crazy and amazing show. Enjoy the ride!
Same here. Lol.
I'm realizing Ashley's immediate response to a poor role is to stuff her mouth full of food. I feel you, girl.
Percy: "Lady Kima, as I'm sure you know, grief speaks before sense-"
*clearly trying to get Keyleth to stop*
Keyleth: All I'm saying, Lady Kima, is..."
*immediate look of frustration/defeat from Taliesin*
51:28
Keylith's soapbox moment begins here. What an imbecil...
Wouldn't call her an imbecile. But that was a really awkward and pretty soapbox-y
Just watch Laura's face throughout Keyleth's soapbox rants. Absolutely hilarious and takes away a lot of the awkward tension.
Cringey Keyleth at it again. 😬
She has some moments like this in Campaign 2 as well. I think it's a Marisha thing, not a Keyleth thing.
2:18:00 "Can I throw lightning and not hit Tiberius?"
"No."
(chuckle of collateral damage calculation, should I do it anyway...)
honestly of all the people most in tune with there character Sam gets so into scanlan its fucking great. Everytime I see his shit eating grin I wanna go out for drinks and shit. dudes awesome
and shit where though? in another barracks? :P
Yep, that there's a Nopemonster. Native to the plane of Fuckthatshit.
I’m out
@@funeraloak7422 I see you may be interested in my car: the Out-y 5000.
Get in loser's we're going noping.
I have accepted “Nopemonster” as the canonical name of that *thing*
You are now entering the town of GetTheFuckOut, population absolutely fucking nobody because they all either left or died
So here I am in 2020 and I’ve noticed that Matt Mercer doesn’t say “kind of” anymore when he is describing things he can’t quite picture he’s just gotten even better. It has also made me realize I say “sort of” when dming as a habit from watching CR. Matt has gotten so much better at his craft
I noticed the same thing. Some of the sequences, such as when they were escaping the Druegar war-camp, were pretty sloppy. You don't see that these days. He's improved a lot.
'Sort/kind of', 'just', and 'like' are stalling transitions for descriptions. And considering they are not exactly used to being ON CAMERA or playing this nerd game (before it was widely accepted), I don't blame him at all.
@@diversezebra6754 I dont think they were attacking him then, they were just saying that he has gotten EVEN BETTER, getting more used to camera presence and bringing his world to life even more. He has always been amazing at it though
Nice, does he change "find purchase" too?
@@diversezebra6754 "nerd game" Yikes kid, the 80s called and wants it's ignorance back.
When Kaylin said "Nothing good is ever tentacle-y," it looked for a second that Matt was going to respond as Clarota.
I saw that! Someone else started talking and I think that’s the only reason he didn’t. I would’ve loved to hear what Clarota had to say lol
I was listening to this during work, and i got to that part, i expected him to, but also i expected someone to make it dirty.
lol Clarota: “dude I’m right here!”
That look on Matt's face when Laura remembered she could track the queen is priceless 😍
ITLLBGRAND bruh she didn’t hunters mark her if she had the queen would have died
@@MadScientistGuild She did hunters mark but it was after her first attack. She then forgot that she had done it on her second attack.
Except the spell Hunter's Mark doesnt give you some mystical sign in the sky or anything like that. What it does is give you advantage on tracking checks. So she cant just concentrate and point in a direction. She would somehow have to find tracks made by the queen and then follow them. The idea that she knows where she is by mystical feel is a complete misunderstanding of the spell. It also only lasts an hour, not 24 hours. I understand Matt going with the flow for dramatic effect, but thats wildly ignoring the the core rules. =)
@@dariensampson7913 I dont know what hunters mark she was using but its not the Hunters Mark from 5e, that for sure =)
MichaelNNY 8 hours with 3rd spell slot, 24 hours with 5th level spell slot.
when healing clarota, scanlan should sing "I bless the brain down in Clarota"
I bless the dice for vex ahlia!
Or a take on insane in the membrane
Lahvi's Delivery Service to the tune of insane in the membrane "All's okayyy with the mindflayyyyy"
*TOTO INTENSIFIES*
some verses about healing Clarota to the tune of The Knack's "My Sharona" 😄🎵🎻🎸
I wish Percy spoke up more, he sounds really level-headed and smart
Yeah we don't hear enough from Percival thus far and I'm hoping he ends up speaking a great deal more.
Silent ones are the most wisest
To any first time watchers, just remember one word. Briarwood. When that comes up later down the line you'll see why the title 'No-Mercy Percy' exists.
@@darkvizardking69 oh damn.
@@o00o45 damn indeed, Percy is why I want to build a gunslinger in a campaign that will let me.
"Now we know how many hit points it takes to kill a cat" *flashbacks to frumpkin being kicked by a guard*
Poor Frumpkin :(
That guard had some storys to tell
dude i never wanted to throw hands with an imaginary character more than i did that episode
Or, in this case, *flash FOWARD*
XD
That guard has a great strength mod if it was a five damage kick.
Man, when Travis is gone the group takes forever deciding what to do. They spent 20 minutes decided on whether to rest XD. It's nice when Grog just runs down a path rather than let the group deliberate about it.
Because he starts getting impatient since Grog can't usually contribute to the decision making. In the second campaign, though, Travis' character may as well be the de facto leader of the group.
I've always been of the opinion most, if not all (so long as the players are fine with it), campaigns benefit from an idiot character who can force the party's hand if they're indecisive.
@@notrod5341 My character, and another character, died (and failed all three death saves lol) after our impulsive/idiot character set off a trap. It was still fun, though. My new character attended my old character's funeral.
Grog is just my MOST favorite character in the campaign. Second coming in a tie are Scanlan and Tiberius. Third is Trinket.
Grog is just my MOST favorite character in the campaign. Second coming in a tie are Scanlan and Tiberius. Third is Trinket.
after re-watching this, I just now remembered the poor dwarf they left in the dungeon eating cheese. poor guy, never stood a chance against that lava.
MrElectricDreamMan they also left dwarfs in a prison tent at the durrigar war camp
They give 0 shits about the captive dwarves.
@@darkbunny9994 As a lover of dwarves, this is very upsetting.
They were in the Underdark and constantly in danger of dying themselves but it is a little concerning how they didn't even seem to remember all the prisoners they didn't try to save.
Actually they told the dwarves to sneak out after they left
51:24 "Dragging hooks across my flesh" -Kima
*Pike who grabbed hooks from the torture chamber*😳
I´m amazed at how Trinket is so loved by everyone... and they never remember him... god damn it, YOU HAVE A BEAR AT YOUR SIDE!!!!
Sprinkle?
"so loved by everyone" flash forward to Scanlan feeding it a poisoned hotdog. Lol
Honestly it’s a frequent thing with animal companions - the ranger in my group keeps forgetting her panther.
"Grief speaks before sense" - such wisdom
Just wait. The Eldritch Deity gets the chance to _really_ shine with his wisdom as the zen cow-dad.
"Omg what if they start fuckin?" I lost it
Molly Waters Same. I'm at work and probably looked like an idiot laughing to myself
RIGHT? So funny! Scanlan is the best.
thats scanlan for you. i swear id go gay for scanlan
Even better if you use it for vex and Percy
Sam: "Can I cast Lighting without hitting Tiberius?"
Matt: "No."
Sam: "OK, then I won't do that."
Orion, probably thinking: "Not haphazardly hitting your allies with your spells? What a weird thought!"
Because why would you want to hit your friends? Do that when mind controlled at the very least. It's why careful spell is a metamagic feature.
@@darkvizardking69 I'm sure Orion never _wanted_ to hit his party members and innocent NPCs, he just constantly _did_ out of carelessness, and then didn't care.
Especially when he had JUST cast a fireball to hit the duergar king, even though it hit his party members as well...
Ngl I did it by accident when I first started playing allll the time. I still do it occasionaly.
Matt: *Says something to the effect of "monster has teeth in its throat".*
Ashley: "Ex-squeeze me?"
Well of course Travis had to see The Avengers. He voices Thor in a lot of the animated series
Just voicing something doesn't mean they're fans of what they did work on. They haven't played all the games they've voiced in or watched all the anime they've been in. It's a job. Super heroes just happen to be awesome and Travis likes them. Even if he wasn't Thor or Hulk I'm sure he'd go see the movie.
Not to mention his character is actually awol, so he would be bored out of his mind waiting to play again
You don't think they knew he would be gone so Matt devised a way to remove him for the time being and at the same time progress the story?
The dude is actually Thor he hides it really fuckin well
Why are people calling Trinket useless? I hear he gives expert massages, so he can't be that useless. Yeah?
didnt he pull the one character out of the lava last episode?
I believe so, yes.
So not useless, just under utilized!
Matt actually mentions it in one of the interviews. Something along the lines of "she has a bear to protect her, but she never uses it." It was something about how devastated she would be if trinket died.
Shepard312 and he's adorable
Matt in 2015: I'll say a kitten has 5 hit points
Liam in 2018: weeps in Frumpkin
34:45 to see the moment that Matt became so proud that Laura finally used Hunter's Mark correctly
1:30:26 That is such a cool image. This platform of stone with a adventuring party on it. Floating above a desert of white bone, black obsidian and ancient, purple stone ruins. A single ball of light illuminating the surroundings of the party. And outside of their vision, there could be anything. It's utter darkness. Almost complete silence, in this vast, underground graveyard.
The moment Matt finished with the description I paused the video and googled because I was curious someone drew that
No results real bummer
Shame, it's really cool. Too bad i suck at drawing otherwise i'd do it.
28:00
Scanlan: *unaffected by Pike/Vex/Keyleth outrage*
Percy: you'll have to go paying for it alone
Scanlan: oh wait good point nvm
I love how Matt breaks when the party assumes that Clorato and Kima might get up to some naughty business while keeping watch.
Liam and Laura's sibling energy is giving me life.
1:50:10 DISADVANTAGE ON *YOU,* DISADVANTAGE ON YO' *COW,* DISADVANTAGE ON YO' *WHOLE FAMILY*
You know it's good when you can't say it without laughing
Underrated comment 😂
It occurs to me that they aren't collecting scalps for extra gold
true, but like Matt said in an earlier episode "The bag of holding is not a refrigerator"
So? They easily could have made scalp jerky and taken that back with them
@@alexv3357 brilliant.
Matt: ... *visible confusion* .... okay. Roll for... uh.. survival?
They wouldn’t do well in Baldur’s Gate 1 I guess
They also never brought back the promised ale to the guards right?
I like how they have such distrust in the paladin that has a reputation of being honorable and overall a good person who has the faith and backing of their friend Allura while they have a literal monster who they know is insane and they know strait up eats people brains in their camp that they don’t question or sequester about their reliability to the group.
Eehhh that same "goodly paladin of Bahamut" pinned a disarmed, defenceless duergar to a wall with a sword through the gut, used the pain of it (effectively torture) to force info out of him then twisted the blade to kill him in the most painful way possible. I wouldn't trust her either. At least Clarota is up front with his evil.
@@iank472 I hope you do understand that they found her naked, with hooks in her skin, and had been tortured for days, if not a week or more by the Duregar? Are you shaming her for that? Really?
@@slipstream5762 nope I'm not shaming her at all. I'm pointing out that a paladin of Bahamut who violently and painfully murders someone, regardless of circumstances, risks severing their connection to their Patron. Bahamut traditionally isn't the most flexible of Gods when it comes to morality. It's perfectly understandable why she did it but she is still a paladin of a Lawful Good God.
Well Clarota, despite his creepy nature, has been at least mostly cooperative and even friendly with the party. Keema on the other hand, despite the party saving her, pretty much immediately started making demands of the party while ignoring their requests of her, and was all around not too fun to actually hang out with. It's understandable why they'd like Clarota more.
I love how when Trinket takes that nap mid battle, Sam had the shittiest grin for like 10 seconds while Laura and Ashley are genuinely concerned.
Then "This is a, Grizzly, situation".
... And no response from everyone else.
Dude, it was perfect.
Honestly, Percy makes such little impact in both conversation and battle that I forget he's there half the time. It's nice to see him take center stage for once.
This. The rogues steamroll over everyone else. Its cool when the others get to step up. I like Percy. I want to see more of Percy
he definitely has his moments. a lot of times I agree, but he isn't useless by far.
Percy kicked so much ass last episode he just doesn't do a bunch of dumb shit
oh, his character gets better, don't you worry your sweet heads.
He's the stoic badass. He doesn't need to talk.
Pike and Scanlan's interactions are the best. I love that kind of pure soul x blatant perv dynamic. so entertaining!
you horny dog
Yeah.... pure..... (remembers when pike slits someones throat)
Matt, not even 30 seconds into the video: "We still sadly don't have Travis..."
Me, who just dealt with the whole last episode without Travis saying he would like to rage: ":0 :("
1:22:05 THE WAY MATT LOOKS AT MARISHA AND WINKS OMG MY HEART 😭😭
I also noticed it ❤!
As a married old guy myself, that was heartwarming haha
I came here after starting with C3 and watched till ep 30. The chemistry with all the group was already in place and couples were married. So, coming here to the very beginning of all this and seeing that wink was soooo beautiful 😊😊
no mercy percy starts here
"No mercy Percy". I like that!
RuzzyShuya I am watching the series for the first time. Is No Mercy Percy a thing? I hope so.
No Mercy Percy is VERY much a thing When he pulls out the Bad News, you know someones gonna die.
Just got it. *HELL YEA*
"In Draconia, those are snacks!" LMAO.
I love how all the girls are immediately lost to Kitten!Trinket. :D
Started watching a couple of weeks ago. Percy slaughtering that abyssal abomination with Bad News and rolling a natural 20 to boot has to be my favorite kill of the campaign so far.
Orion interrupting Ashley to try and use telekinesis to lift the platform trinket was on, then failing and getting obviously heated, only for Ashley to go next and finish what she was saying and it work immensely better than what he was trying to do is what I needed. But super bummed that he also took away from her leading them out with said move by…. placing a water sphere in front of where she was already guiding them with no issue…oof. It seems he’s gone for good reason.
he truly just wants to be the hero of every situation (god, i just got to that part, his reaction to it not working is fucking insufferable)
Keyleth: Murders dwarves, children, etc
Also Keyleth: How dare you congratulate us for killing the evil king!
Lusty Norsemen It was so weird and forced. You snapped a starving dwarf in half with your tiger mouth you sick frick.
It's like being pissed that someone congratulated you on killing Hitler. And it was so forced and came out of nowhere. I had to pause because I couldn't watch it in one go
I dont understand, what is it with Keyleths character that makes it so that she doesnt like the paladin? Is there some history or something, it feels so forced and out of nowhere. What is Keyleths alignment?
@@muteunmute5902 Keyleth ranges from neutral to hostile to the gods, and by extension everyone who serves them. I dont think there's a backstory reason, except that she's a druid.
It also feels like she's very upset about loosing Grog and not acting on it immediately, probably in fear that waiting would mean loosing him. But yes, it does feel weird and forced.
Marisha: Nothing tentacle-y is good
Liam: This is not a JRPG
Good thing too,just imagine a D&D Malboro...no one is safe
Trinket: *is dying*.
Scanlan: "We're in a bit of a GRIZZLY situation."
none of them appreciated that one
This weird tension every time Tiberius is on deck...
I know right there is just something bit of about him.
@@CheerioTraveler well it took me 19 more épisodes to figure out why
@@hancholito4478 why?
Sam: "What if [Clorota and Kima] start fucking?
Mike: *pinches the bridge of his nose*
omg these guys XD
When did this happen?
Around minute 47, before Keyleth and Lady Kima start arguing
*Matt
I assume you mean Matt?
Tentacle porn aaaaaaay
That kitten has almost as much health as your average first-level wizard.
And does about the same damage too
If the wizards constitution is low enough, the kitten could actually have MORE health
7 lives
"This bear bursts out from your chest"
Sounds like the best Alien parody ever.
I almost spit my drink reading this 😅
2:23:03, Taliesin just staring into the camera for a solid 20 seconds, I felt like he was bearing into my soul and could read my thoughts dear god
I guess he liked what he saw?
Kima: I am a woman of action
Tiberius: Ah, well it looks like we have something in common!
Me: TIBERIUS IS A WOMAN OF ACTION?!?
Yes of course
If it was scanlan i'd say it was since she's a woman of action, scanlan likes women in action...he likes action with women.
Hard to tell with dragonborn. Best not to make assumptions.
El Bruce well Tibs can get a half chub so safe to say hes a dude
I laughed too hard at this
Goddamn does Matt Mercer know how to cook up a home brew or what. This campaign is amazing. I would love to sit down with this guy for 2 or 7 hours and soak up everything he has to offer.
She being another dm that rly wants to dm like Matt
i dont even Play D&D i want to sit with him so he can tell me the lore of the planet he build. There must be so much lore prepred that we will never find out because the Player dont ask or roll bad on History/Religion checks.
The best part is that Exandria is now an official D&D setting
@@Fidgottio where can I get that setting? I mean, is there a source book other than Explorer's Guide to Wildemont?
Keyleth: I’m gonna wrap a vine around Kima’s waist not her neck
Matt: good distinction
Keyleth: I’m trying not to hurt her
Matt: yeah I know
Keyleth ain’t taking any chances this time 😂
The funniest moment is when you realize that DnD now officially (5 years later) still has cats listed as having 5HP
"In draconian, those are snacks" lmao
2:31:20
Scanlan- "This is a grizzly situation! :D"
Everyone else- *completely misses the fucking hilarious pun*
33:41 LOL! Just the image of a mindflayer doing the ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ pose made me crack up for a solid minute! XDDD
Vastly disapointed that when healing Vax's foot, Scanlon didn't think to ask what other body extremity he could sing to, to grow bigger. Opportunity missed. :/
I don't know why Pike's "That's okay, we all start somewhere" cracks me up so much. She's such a sweetheart.
What does Clarota want to do?
DANCE
save his people from an outside entity that has taken control of them and outcasted him
Then take control of the elder brain and make his people DANCE.
Very good.
@@KnotsOfWonders Only if it was a Disney-themed DnD campaign.
2:26:54 just like that, counting hit points with kittens has begun. Be ready everyone, this is only the beginning.
This episode was hard to get through, between the random Keyleth and Kima drama, and just Orion/Tiberius in general
I felt Laura's heartbreak when Trinket fell unconscious. No one should ever bear the loss of a good companion.
+James Robbins "Bear" the loss. :P
As Scanlin spoke it was a grizzly moment for the party. But I do think that trinket is a valued member of the party.
James Robbins Man, she took it so seriously it made even me feel bad.
Yeah, the whole scene nearly clawed my heart out. Felt like I was in the maw of despair.
+James Robbins no, bad, bad pun
1:58:21
Sam: I'm going to blind him with blindness
Taliesin: Try blinding him with science, that usually works
XD
Taliesin is quietly one of the funniest people on the show
The tiny wink/smile from Matt to Marisha at 1:22:04 gives me life
I just saw him do this and ran to the comments to see if anyone else noticed because same 😍
I rewinded to see if I saw it right, and then melted
Well spotted. I didn't see it originally. A wonderful moment to go back and see.
''You can certainly try'' is such a typical DM answer lmao
"Are you congratulating us for murder?" - Keyleth the child killer
True, but it feels a bit hypocritical - for someone who gets on other peoples case for killing so much, Keyleth consistently makes basically no effort to avoid accidentally killing people, and does it a lot.
I just started watching in Campaign 2, and I'm going through Campaign 1 now, and man... it just really feels like Marisha goes out of her way to pick fights no matter what character she's playing. She usually starts the same way each time, with an antagonistic question. I really can't figure her out in this show, in either campaign. Man, I hope it's all just for the characters and that Matt doesn't get earfuls of that at home.
She is young. Think of like this: she has this high image of herself, a benevolent image because her tribe demands it, as a druid, but her actions contradict herself not because she wants to, but because things turn out that way. She pushed someone into lava as she was in the middle of a fight, killed a child and a dwarf by mistakes. I like D&D cause you might want to be something, but your actions change what other people view your character.
But the hilarious thing about Keyleth is she tries so hard to be good, but the universe seems to want her to be in the other side.
It's. A. Game.
@@morganalefae3137 ^^^^
47:21 I LOVE Liam's "Rated M for mature." voice. It's perfect.
The fact nobody reacted to the "this is a grizzly situation" makes me so sad.
"Your bear chest!" Wow, what an underrated pun. I feel like I'm constantly backing up to laugh at Tal, and no one in the party notices the gold he's spouting. XD
