That last battle was miraculous. The opponent had microbe, level 3 turtle, a 50/50 and two butterflies, basically an unbeatable team. NL's team was accidentally perfectly set up to beat it. Level 3 skunk turns the 50/50 into a 50/1, butterflies both copy the 1 hp, level 2 skunk turns the 9/16 turtle into a 9/5, exactly enough for the chili to knock it out on the first hit, but the 8/8 microbe stays standing against the 6/8 skunk so that when it faints in the next attack, it overrides all 3 melon armors and everything dies to the hedgehog trigger.
@@tommydashed4205 no, that would've been a draw without a spawner build (and you rarely see a skunk in one), or worse if the units did 20 damage or less, but here, the hedgehog killed them without attacking, nullifying their 50 damage
NL putting 1UPs on everything without ever realizing his Microbe is overriding all of it with weakness after watching it happen for several rounds is the peak SAP content I live for.
"I would love to hit a lvl 3 Skunk" -Has a Skunk on screen -Rerolls "I want to see some 1-ups" -Rerolls -Gets a 1-up -Rerolls I love you man, but damn, check your prescription, I think you need to change your glasses haha
The 3 1-ups getting overridden by the microbe was actually killing me. When he then worried about the turtle shield overriding the 1-up i just perished where i sat.
@@4purs im scared that he stopped playing SAP on stream so we won't be getting double uploads from now on. :/ Because it was always one upload from a video he records before stream and then the editor pulling videos from his stream vods for the second upload.
At the start I was like “finally, he’s no longer getting away with this.” And then at the end I was back to “He can’t keep getting away with this” Loving the pogged SAP runs NL
definitely a lot of laughing and crrying going on in this episode. the misplays were extreme, but NL also had some of the most entertaining teams i've ever seen in the game lol
I found NL during the chess boom last year. Needless to say, I was very late to the party but he is literally one of my favorite entertainers on twitch/youtube
if you're looking for a different flavor of NL, in the past he did some playthroughs of story games and a lot of fans (including me) recommend watching some of them even though they're a bit old. the fallout new vegas playthrough was legendary in terms of entertainment, but there's lots of good stuff that you can find if you're ever starved for content
NL a month ago: "HAHAHAH DODO ROOSTER DODO ROOSTER LOOK AT ME ALWAYS PLAYING THE SAME TEAM HAHAHAHAHA" NL now: "I can stop buying every single hedgehog whenever I want, I'm having fun and you're just a hater."
The beauty of this game is that you have all the time in the world - you can analyse different scenarios and weigh the probabilities. And still, Northernlion plays crazy fast and rolls over important stuff - what a mad lad...
I dont know why but i get a good laugh every time you go full Hog meta. There's just something so enjoyable and hilarious about a build that just triggers everything all at once and makes things so unpredictable how they will play out.
After so much sassing to backseaters in chat about buff items on caterpillars getting overridden by the metamophasis - *or* after so many bats taken to override enemy buffs - you'd think he'd realize the microbe was purging his 1ups 😂
The last minute chili on the skunk in the front was massive. It killed the turtle before the microbe so everything got melon before getting weak. Combined with the fact that the skunk hit the turtle before the butterflies because they were still caterpillars so they had less health, making the turtle the seconds highest hp unit. And then both butterflies turned into 50/1 because the worm got hit by the skunk and they copied its stats after it got hit. That is a perfect win.
"you overwrote your own chilli pepper man, what the heck are you doing?" Meanwhile game before NL proceeds to put a microbe in front of his entire team full of 1ups.... and NEVER realizes it unfortunately. 😁
man watching him grab chocolate and roll past that skunk broke me. I would be a little more forgiving of the egg man, if he had any more than LITERALLY 7 things to looks at at one time. 7 things, and he rolls past stuff all the time. big piece energy
It is insane that on a turn where NL puts 2 1UPs on Hedgehogs, while noting that the equipment doesn't matter due to Microbe, one of the hedgehogs gets sniped before microbe dies making the 1UP actually matter. Infinite IQ play.
Everyone else: Having fun running rooster, dodo, turkey, tiger, fly ad nauseum NL: "Get some original material. Do you even play the game to have fun?" NL: Runs hedgehogs ad nauseum NL: "I'm just having fun. Is it illegal to have fun?"
I literally ran a microbe-two hedgehog-turtle-flex unit build earlier today and messaged my friend excitedly about the potential in honing that in. I truly cannot believe this coincidence.
Just a thought, but I think a great addition for food would be lemons. Doesn't buff you're own pet but does two damage to an opposing pet that attacks it.
There are always like 2 moments where I feel smarter than NL in a SAP videos. 2 brief periods of time in an ocean of 5head, big brain, absolutely cracked strats.
The snipe at the very end is more insane than you think lol. The skunk brought the 50/50 worm to 50/1 so when the caterpillars transformed they turned into 50/1’s. Yep
7:24 Oh I guess he doesn't want to do turtle microbe anymore 7:28 What the flip you piece Also all the deliberation being spent on buying equipment when you have a microbe What an episode, Ill be back tomorrow
23:49 "We want a skunk to hit level 3. It is so important for us." So important that he doesn't see the skunk in the shop and rerolls away from it after buying the chocolate. >.< 24:55 "I'd like to see some 1-ups." 1 second later he rerolls away from a 1-up. ?.?
"we want a skunk to hit level three" - rolls past a skunk one microsecond later
One minute later, “I would like to see some 1ups” -immediately rolls past
I literally yelled out loud at that part haha
major you piece energy
pill me

I mean it is hilarious that it worked out so perfectly but when they all copied the 1hp from the worm it was over regardless.
SAP is a form of art
Poetry in motion
@@tommydashed4205 It actually would have been a draw the front unit would have got an extra atk and then everything else would have traded.
@@tommydashed4205 no, that would've been a draw without a spawner build (and you rarely see a skunk in one), or worse if the units did 20 damage or less, but here, the hedgehog killed them without attacking, nullifying their 50 damage
“We want a skunk to reach level 3”
*rolls past skunk*
And still wins
HE'S ALWAYS GETTING AWAY WITH IT
That part killed me. AS HE WAS SAYING IT TOO
Just a few short seconds later...
"I would like to see some 1ups"
*rolls past 1up*
23:53
I was screaming internally lmao
Buying 1ups for the whole squad when running a microbe at the front is top tier NL play
Our feeble minds can't comprehend such a five head strategy
The 1-Up incident is perhaps worse than the Pot Play...
Can't level the turtle either because we don't want to over ride the one up.
I never expect anything less 😂
@@Donovarkhallum I truly did not understand what he meant by that 😂😂 he's officially lost his marbles
NL putting 1UPs on everything without ever realizing his Microbe is overriding all of it with weakness after watching it happen for several rounds is the peak SAP content I live for.
"we actually don't want a lvl 2 turtle because it would override the 1-up"
It actually came in handy vs sniper squads
not only that. when he said this at 9:42 my brain punched itself in the groin.
When he bought a 1up for the turtle and said "Something in my heart is screaming that this will protect the dolphin" *I* screamed
I do love it when he finds out himself though, too bad he didn't realize
If he rolls past a mushroom one more time, while also saying that he's looking for mushrooms, I'm gonna become the Joker.
he will never become the joker

"I would love to hit a lvl 3 Skunk"
-Has a Skunk on screen
-Rerolls
"I want to see some 1-ups"
-Rerolls
-Gets a 1-up
-Rerolls
I love you man, but damn, check your prescription, I think you need to change your glasses haha
Proof that NL's banter is AI generated and is influenced by gameplay, not the other way around
I think chocolate causes tunnel vision.
23:50 was unreal, I wonder if we actively heated the earth with the combined screams at that time
The 3 1-ups getting overridden by the microbe was actually killing me. When he then worried about the turtle shield overriding the 1-up i just perished where i sat.
The Skunk blindness while talking about it is too much for my manlet brain.
The same for the 1UPs.
Given how often NL misses animals he actively looks for, I wouldn't be too surprised if he missed sloths at some point
23:51 kill me
He never has. It blows my freaking mind.
@@aicy5170 then he rolls past the one up after saying hes looking for one ups
I swear in one of the early videos he did.
@@iShArKyxJr clip or it didn't happen
the three one ups behind the microbe but it actually having a reason to exist because of other snipers is killing me man
24:57 I’m going to lose it
"Its so important skunk hits level 3" Instantly rolls the shop skunk. This man is uncontainable
He is actively containing his power by rolling pass the skunk
And then he literally bought a chocolate on the next roll
i NEED NL to do reaction to this episode. he has to see what the rest of us see
“I would like to see some 1-Ups.”
Immediately rolls past one. Bless this man.
this man is gonna single handedly gonna get hedgehog nerfed
It’s always the GOATs that force the game to change around them.
This episode is so cursed and blessed at the same time. Absolutely pogged out of my gourd
I don't think there has ever been a bigger hard counter than that last round.
Octopus play against that summon squad was zooted
You know you’re addicted to the NL SAP vids when you watch them with in the first thirty minutes
Ah good I'm fine cause I watched it after 38 minutes, phew 😅
Everyday for 10 days straight since the day u joined
For reals, sometimes I get upset when he doesn’t double upload on a day too lol
“I’m in this tweet and I don’t like it”

If I've learned anything from all of the years I've been subscribed to him, is that he will continue to get away with it.
I genuinely cannot believe Dolphin Microbe Hedgehog Hedgehog Hatching Chick won a single game what on earth
He gets so lucky it's not even reasonable
I’m a simple man. I see super auto pets I click.
Was anyone else crying laughing at NL having a great time, but also SCREAMING at NL because the microbe was just deleting every item him bought.
definitely a lot of laughing and crrying going on in this episode. the misplays were extreme, but NL also had some of the most entertaining teams i've ever seen in the game lol
That’s the Egg Experience, baby.
The modern tinted rock experience
Not sure if NL lost his mind or if he truly never had it in the first place

NL playing Detroit and DDLC are burned into my memory
@@shrimpchris6580 he played DDLC!?
@@handtomouth4690 Yeah definitely go look up the playlist, it's highly blursed content
When he rolled pass that skunk by buying chocolate, I physically jolted in disappointment!! Love it none the less!
NL a month ago: "HAHAHAH DODO ROOSTER DODO ROOSTER LOOK AT ME ALWAYS PLAYING THE SAME TEAM HAHAHAHAHA"
NL now: "I can stop buying every single hedgehog whenever I want, I'm having fun and you're just a hater."
NL outbrains himself at 23:50, he want's lvl 3 skunk but appereantly not enough to not skip past a skunk :D
23:48 "We want a skunk to hit level 3, it's so important to us"

"we don't want to level up a turtle believe it or not because it will override our 1up" -top 10 northernlion plays
It’s so important for us that the skunk hits level 3. Immediately proceeds to skip over a skunk.
Can't believe it took this long for nl to become obsessed with hedgehogs when they have literally been this fun and good since day one
Most underrated play is the chili at the end. Kills the turtle so it gives out melon before the microbe goes off which then erases the melon.
but with 2 hedgehogs the melon armor wouldn't matter either way.
The last minute chili on the skunk in the front was massive. It killed the turtle before the microbe so everything got melon before getting weak. Combined with the fact that the skunk hit the turtle before the butterflies because they were still caterpillars so they had less health, making the turtle the seconds highest hp unit.

I actually gasped and facepalmed when he chocolated the skunk and rolled past one simultaneously
"you overwrote your own chilli pepper man, what the heck are you doing?" Meanwhile game before NL proceeds to put a microbe in front of his entire team full of 1ups.... and NEVER realizes it unfortunately. 😁
He said It te moment he bought the first 8:10
NL-Level 3 skunk is very imporant
Also NL- Accidentally rolls past skunk
Forget the t-rex we wanna see a 1-up
*rolls past a 1-up immediately after that*
Drinking the SAP straight from the tap
"I would like to see some 1-ups"
*rolls shop
*1-up in shop
*rolls shop again
Never change
You gotta love seeing him force this to work. It’s not an easy squad to shove together and make a win so I gotta respect it
The rate at which the madman rolls past things he specifically asks for IN THE MOMENT HE DOES SO.... i cant take it anymore
The next time you go crazy with hedgehogs you should try using a Gorilla. Guaranteed coconut armor is insane.
"We want a skunk to hit lvl 3, it's so important to us". Rolls past one as he says it 🙃
Him rolling past the skunk while talking how important it is killed me
“A tier 3 skunk is massively important” rolls past skunk. “Looking for 1ups” rolls past 1up
That last game couldn't have gone any more perfectly 😁 just low enough on the turtle to cleave it down, and the caterpillars copying the 1 health 😂
man watching him grab chocolate and roll past that skunk broke me. I would be a little more forgiving of the egg man, if he had any more than LITERALLY 7 things to looks at at one time. 7 things, and he rolls past stuff all the time. big piece energy
Got a 10 win using hedgehog strats in the midgame. I can't believe I ever doubted hedgehog, it's actually crazy for tier 2-4 meta.
"I would like to see some 1ups" *rolls past 1up currently in shop*
It is insane that on a turn where NL puts 2 1UPs on Hedgehogs, while noting that the equipment doesn't matter due to Microbe, one of the hedgehogs gets sniped before microbe dies making the 1UP actually matter. Infinite IQ play.

NL defines the meta
That level 3 skunk removed 147 hp off of the opponents team with his ability alone
I literally ran a microbe-two hedgehog-turtle-flex unit build earlier today and messaged my friend excitedly about the potential in honing that in. I truly cannot believe this coincidence.
"It's so important for skunk to hit level 3."
*Immediately rolls away a skunk*
How NL thinks we view the Hedgehog builds: "sigh, gee. Another boring hedgehod build"
How we actually view the hedgehog builds: " Hedgehogs?! POGGGG!"
these hedgehogs builds are hillarious :D love it
my man, this hole this was pure clip farming to the highest degree, love it!
The shooter runs where im watching the battle end before the animals attack are hilarious
Just a thought, but I think a great addition for food would be lemons. Doesn't buff you're own pet but does two damage to an opposing pet that attacks it.
we already have 🌶
@@aicy5170 that's splash damage. It's similar but not the same. Splash doesn't work on the current pet you're attacking
NL hedgehog shenanigans are the best. Keep em coming
This isn’t just an era of SAP. This has gone a level deeper as we enter specific archetype eras. Welcome to the era of hedgehog supremacy
wow that skunk shooting that 50/50 worm to 50/1 was nuts at the end
I love how the last guy with a microbe followed by 3 50 50s with melon armor was completely countered by 2 hedgehogs.
NL’s favorite featured film is Wild Hogs confirmed
That last game was the stars aligning. Never punished.
The skunk blowout on the last turn was so hilarious, hahahahaha.
I'm loving this hedgehog bs. It's amazing.
"I would like to see some 1-ups"
Immediately rolls past a 1-up
That final round was a theatrical masterpiece.
"We want our skunk to be lvl 3" says he as he rolls the skunk away xD
bison skunk 2 hedghogs is the quintessential NL SAP build
"a level 3 skunk is the most important thing right now" as he rolls the shop with the skunk in it
Imagine being on turn 19 with those butterflies to get just ABSOLUTELY countered into oblivion.
“You overrode your own chili pepper wth are u doing?” Ten minutes prior he overrode his whole team of 1-ups
he.. he just kept putting equipment on units behind a microbe... he cant be stopped!!
This man wears glasses and will still roll past animals and food that he’s looking for
There are always like 2 moments where I feel smarter than NL in a SAP videos. 2 brief periods of time in an ocean of 5head, big brain, absolutely cracked strats.
Skunk Hedgehog every past video... Yay... Fun
30:07 - Wow. Your Skunk obliterated that worm and those Butterflies. Basically did 147 damage. Haha…
Those hedgehog builds are hilarious. I thought it could've used a bee to help the last surviving unit turn it into a win, but i dunno. Entertaining.
Why doesn’t he notice that the microbe is overriding any buffs he’s putting in his pets?
I’m genuinely concerned at this point.
He’s become blind by his intent for hedgehog
The devs added a little white star effect for animals you already have... like skunks. It really pops out at you. Very helpful...
Oh man, this video was such a fever dream. So many misplays, so much pog.
That meme build at the end is kinda funny it worked. I definitely want to try it 😹
The snipe at the very end is more insane than you think lol. The skunk brought the 50/50 worm to 50/1 so when the caterpillars transformed they turned into 50/1’s. Yep

7:28 What the flip you piece
Also all the deliberation being spent on buying equipment when you have a microbe
What an episode, Ill be back tomorrow
“I’d like to see some one ups”
Immediately rolls past a 1 up
”It’s so important that the skunk hits level 3”
He says while skipping a skunk
23:49 "We want a skunk to hit level 3. It is so important for us." So important that he doesn't see the skunk in the shop and rerolls away from it after buying the chocolate. >.<
24:55 "I'd like to see some 1-ups." 1 second later he rerolls away from a 1-up. ?.?
Thank you for all the hedgehog builds in the game people are copying you with.. easy wins
24:52 "I wanna see some 1-ups" *Rolls past 1-up*
I be pissing, I be crying, I be waiting to see my doctor
Last game "we need to level this skunk" immediately rolls past skunk."I'd like to see some 1-ups" immediately rolls past 1-up... oh it hurts.
8:32 the one up actually somehow working even with microbe on the team is truly a brain melter
I love that he didn't realize the microbe was erasing all of the one ups
