I love Cad so much, such a cool concept executed well!
taliesin has a 20 wis irl, living for 1000s of years of course
@@noromantichero well yeah he is a vampire! its in the one shot
It takes a wise player to play a wise character that well, and holy shit, it just makes me love Tal even more
Taliesin is simply immortal.
"There's water water
everywhere
and all of it wants to kill me :("
- Nott the Brave
She’s not wrong
Sam was actually hinting Liam to pull out his water breathe spell.
Instead he cast Suggestion on Sam.
She’s right tho
Beauregard says: Water can drip and it can crash. Become like water my friend.
Calab using suggestion on nott seems like a slippery slope too me.
It would be a shame if someone had messed with calabs head into doing something he really didn't want to do, someone better go tell his parents... oh wait
Haha Jester, "HI STRANGER I'M THE RUBY OF THE SEA'S DAUGHTER AND HERE'S MY LIFE STORY"
10 seconds later makes up a fake name.
😆 so true
Jester doesn't do logic lol
Yasha is the Gandalf of Critical Role. She's never early or late, she arrives precisely when she means to.
Wonder if she's going to have a death and resurrection sequence
she's such a treasure
I love this comment
Thats so good XD
I wish she was replaced by a player who could attend most events and actually be a living part of the story.
The Widow’s Embrace was tattooed on the dead pirate they got Fjord’s armor from.
Boz I didn’t realize that, but I knew it sounded familiar. How long did it take you to figure that out?
Rainbow Glitch this was the second time I’ve watched through both campaigns so I remembered more or less after a few seconds of seeing it the second time
Good for you man, it’s awesome that you caught that! You must have really good attention to detail.
Hell, even Matt forgot about that! Good job!
Where did fjord find the armor again?
It was definitely the first time they were in zedash as it was one of the things he gave to pumat to transfer the enchantment to....
was this at the spider or before then?
"You brought the dog?"
"He wanted to come!"
Best moment this episode
I love how Caduceus is pretty much highlighting to the others that lying for no reason all the time isn't always the best method. All the situations made worse by the Neins lying he's just swooping in with blunt honesty and the situation gets 100% better for them lol
I'm spending the entire campaing yelling: "WHY. ARE. YOU. LYING?!!!" At least it kind of makes sense for the characters to jump to conclusions some times. Especially Caleb, Jester and Nott.
They’re not lying for no reason. Caduceus doesn’t know why they felt like lying is the way to go. His baggage or reasoning isn’t like his.
@jonnyso1 This was also a thing in campaign 1.
It's a D&D thing in general
Has Laura realized yet that she makes every combat more difficult with her decisions...? Let me "HELLISH REBUKE" my ally...after just healing them...
“STAY ON TASK, WIDOGAST!” is so freaking catchy.
Also, the line “You just described every environment that life can manifest” is UNDERRATED. BLESS CAD.
That battle was SO stressful.
Ashley slowing flipping Liam off
Funnily enough, I was drawing while listening to the episode, and I actaully didn't realize Sam wasn't the one reding the DnD Beyond ad until I looked up at the screen.
I was listening to the podcast while driving to work and thought "Oh...wow. Sam toned it down this time, weird." Nope...should have Known Sam would never Lol
OMG same, I was just listening in while browsing wiki... I was super surprised when I looked over and Sam wasn't the one talking
Same here! I listen at work and was very confused when Sam came in. I had to back it up to rewatch the announcements lol.
Same, but cooking
I started the video and went to read the few first comments as I always do just to semi-spoil myself about jokes and I read this comment and went "Wait what ?" then only realized it wasn't Sam
I love how Ashley's trying to play a secretive, mysterious character, and all her RL friends are like, "fuck that, tell me everything! No secrets!"
In person: we respect that she has to work elsewhere and support her through this
In character: but yasha, you leave.... like all the time..... what’s yur deeeeeeeal!?!?!?
I'm working through a huge backlog right now, but as someone who is only up to this point, that character choice feels... poor. It would have worked amazingly with the slow burn development the rest of the cast goes through, feeding little tidbits of information here and there. But, I mean... she's never fucking there. It doesn't work at all. She feels flat and uninteresting because the few times we see her, it's just "I can't tell you anything... and I'm gone, bye." She's a non-entity in every sense of the word. As someone who is more of a recurring guest character than a member of the cast, someone with less depth, but who is more open and interesting would have been a better choice.
If all this works super well later on, I wouldn't be surprised. She's clearly a good roleplayer and Matt would no doubt have shit planned for. But man, 34 episodes and like, fucking four full days of content later, and I know shit all about her and don't really care. That's not a great look.
@@CyanMedic with time, all will be revealed
Yasha is one of my top 2 favorite characters in the up to date story
@@CyanMedic part of it is work. Part of it her investing almost no time into the class. This does change, but the void you're experiencing is very much there. Matt will remark on the character soon and Ashley will get more time to dedicate to the show and all the things her friends say about her do come to light.
What's sad is the projecting from people like OP of this thread, dressing up what isn't there and crediting someone who is engaging at the most base level with a tapestry of nonsense.
@@CyanMedic it works great, she works hella outside of this so to be a mysterious character with many secrets helps the narrative for when she leaves often.
You can only work with what you got.
You know it's a DND party when "convince him to not harass my clients anymore, but please don't do anything drastic (I swear to the mother, don't kill him or anything)" is heard as "kill the man, kill him now".
When Sam said "I just want to point out that you're mother said he's annoying, so we blew him up and attacked him with tentacles" I lost it
@@SFBSpartan Ya, but by this point they had learned he was enslaving someone, so....fuck that guy!
I made that mistake as a DM with my first campaign. Local shop owner, Remus Vukić, was being harassed by a competitor. The party not only killed the competitor, they took his shop, stripped it clean and sold it for peanuts to Remus.
With absolute impunity thanks to a few very good rolls and a decent chunk of gold to the local law enforcement.
What Remus originally said: "guy's a jerk. He keeps scaring my customers"
I love how people draw group pictures with both Caduceus and Mollymauk. Even though Molly isn't around anymore, he'll always be a part of the Mighty Nein.
YES. Like Beau said, Caduceus is not a replacement of Mollymauk.
I'd love for caduces and molly to meet. Just to see what they'd say to each other
@@bumbledy_bee
“Nice hair.”
“Tea?”
“I can’t say no…”
Fjord, Beau, Jester, Nott, Caleb, Frumpkin, Yasha, Caduceus and Mollymauk.
That's nine.
@@alexandertiberius1098can't leave best girl (bird) kiri out
The only thing that kills me more than Fjord being weaker than Jester is the fact that Nott has the second highest intelligence in the group
And Caleb is the highest by 2 points
I actually like the idea of Nott being freakishly proficient but cowardly and insecure.
@KyleLee Bowers Momma gobber energy 👌
3rd
Fjord is also weaker than Caleb, I believe.
Ashley: "I would like to rage."
Travis: *excited Grog noises*
excited *ME* noises tbh lol
Lol, every time
Every time. I live for his reactions to Ashley saying those fatal words.
Every time without fail. Love that Grog energy
I like when he pitches in giving her tips that he knows for a class that she has unfortunately been unable to play much
34 Episodes in.
Things we know about Yasha:
1. Her name, is Yasha.
hey hey, we also know that she's probably from Xhorhas !
And she's like.. big and stuff
Not to mention that she likes flowers!
She's down with the storm god
She gets anxious when theres a lot of ppl. She doesnt like to be the center of attention. Shes a badass but shes also a big teddybear. Her and Molly were bestfriends and she was devastated when she found out he died.
Long story short, we know lots abt Yasha u just have to pay attention
My head cannon is that the Traveler's main form of influence is on travels and journeys. He could influence your destination, your chosen routes, the time of departures, and your rate of travels. This would be how he could help Jester. He would influence the travels of many potential allies so that they will coincidentally converge and meet each other. To help Jester, he coordinated the meeting of Nila, Keg, Shakaste. The chances of bumping into 3 allies in quick succession is astronomically small. It will also account for all of the crazy coincidences in finding Yasha.

Spoilers
He did kind of, I am pretty sure the the red haired green eyed person that helped them find where jester, fjord and yasha were at was artagon
The cast, seeing the battle map: “WOWWWW, LOOK AT THAT! THIS IS AMAZING!”
Me, waiting on the overhead camera: “I guess I can use my imagination.”
I really like when they focus on the map in the big layout. The side map is so tiny I just use it for reference. I can never tell if the map is really cool because of that...
Something no one does anymore.
@@VeteranVandal Yeah, exactly. If there is a map, I want to see that map in big detail. I know what the cast looks like, and it's still very easy to read body language and facial expressions when they are smaller on the side in the big layout.
@@zaeroses1096 this this this 100%
"OMG did you get my messages!"
Oh Jester, sweetie... Yasha is the personification of Left On Seen.
To be fair Yasha gets interacted with when Ashley isn't there to deal with and remember those things. She wasn't even told that it was Sending until Matt pointed it out later on. Also the fact that Yasha leaving being handled by Matt forced the cast to reveal certain things to Yasha twice. Technically she already met Caduceus for example.
I feel that this, even more than not getting to play often, is the worse side effect of Ashley's time commitment issues. The guests often get brought up to speed in character but Yasha, as with Pike before her, is often expected to know things that Ashley just wasn't there to know.
I think this hits something that's been rattling around in my head a bit. I adore Ashley, especially as Pike, but it's been hard to enjoy Yasha. I've heard (could be wrong) that she chose to be shy, distanced personality because she knew that Blindspot would be keeping her away. It sounds like a good plan, but too often it's felt like Yasha herself isn't sure why she's orbiting the M9. I'm excited for Blindspot to run it's course so Yasha can settle into the group like the rest of the personalities have. Aside - this ep has felt like the whole group's a bit fractured. could be my imagination, though.
@@Brion57042 when you say "fractured" what do you mean? Because of Ashley's absence in so many shows or other dynamics as well?
I'm asking because on a previous episode when the group kind of ganged up on Nott to pay 1000gp for a stranger (Gustav, Molly's old boss) to be released from jail, it did seem to me like they, especially Sam, was tense or down when they returned from break as they went into break immediately after that scene. I sincerely hope I'm wrong but I've often felt that Tal doesn't care for Sam because of the way he himself and his character at that time, Molly, treated Nott and at times Caleb. At the end of that scene Tal comments how he took the brunt of the payment without acknowledging Nott having just spent 1000gp to his own 400gp. (Which I felt was complete BS) and Beau having 75gp of Molly's money and giving it to Cad AFTER they'd put in money also annoyed the hell out of me. I felt all Molly's money should have gone to release Gustav. I was truly annoyed with Tal (I often am) and Beau in that scene. I struggle separating the fiction from non and I'm aware of that so in my heart I hope they all very much love each other and it really is just excellent role play. Although early on in the season , when Molly pushed Caleb into the wall and tries to act like he's a bad ass, Tal sat there and crossed his arms like he had just done that in real life, with an arrogant smile on his face for far too long in my opinion. I started not to care for Tal during that and it's been hard for me to look past it although I adore Cad and am trying to feel the same about Tal. I'm hoping his treatment of Nott /Sam improve as time progresses. Sorry this comment is so long. 🤍
@@OmANnIe All of that is just acting. It can get a bit confusing if you're not used to it since they will often act in character even when out of character. It's easiest to notice with Laura as she has an accent and it's easier to see now with Tal putting on that gravely voice. But if you look at campaign 1 they interact completely differently. It's also very easy to see when they fall out of character to laugh, it's as if their personality completely shifts for a second (that's them real selves). Also the whole gold thing, the reason they didn't say Nott spent the most money is that Nott had almost 2000 gold while Cad gave away most of his money. I think he gave away the all of his money if I calculated correctly. Essentially, if a poor person gives away 1 thousand dollars it's a lot, but if a billionaire gives away a million dollars it's nothing.
@Squant It seems like Ashley might process things a little slower (I'm the same way which is why I can't do improv) and so is not quite as much in her element in free-form roleplaying. I wouldn't hold that stuff against her, she's having fun regardless
1:54:45
“You brought the dog?”
“He wanted to come.”
Absolute gold
'ole Deucey 😌🍵
Jester: Nobody is supposed to know I'm here
Also Jester: *tells literally everyone who she is*
I've never met Matt in real life so I have no idea how he based the insecure dock guy off of me
Me too!!!
He based it on himself. After watching the DM bias the way he ignored Jester's duplicity right in his face and then consistently went after Cad very obviously trying to kill Taliesin's character again....made me think he was being insecure about the character interactions. I was really getting into this campaign until this episode. Matt needs to hire a third party to think and roll for the BBEGs since he can't control his bias, not the first time he has totally ignored duplicity.
John Mc wow
John Mc lol calm down
John Mc chip on your shoulder bud?
“I don’t know if I like you...”

Jester can be very disarming while talking to people. Never hiding her intentions, being open, friendly and engaging - that's a good combo.
@@rb4121 That wasn't Jester, it was Yasha then Caduceus
at this point beau and and caleb fighting like they do feels like a sibling type bond. oh god
edit: "all she does is eat fish and do push ups." bro....if that wasn't intentional....
OMG YOU'RE rIGHT
Liam and Marisha have a very close sibling energy to me every time they interact out of character.
@@thilypad557 for sure
You can see their friendship develop. First they had these outbursts, then for a long time they tried to make gestures in their own, awkward ways, and now they just casually bicker with each other like siblings. Shows how much they got closer to each other. Also that they're now much more comfortable in each other's company.
I love that he started answering her back, it was so fucked up how she would bully hom knowing he can't say anything back
I love Caleb narrating his spell casts, it's like listening to a recipe on the cooking channel
TIme, Space, Acid, Heat with Caleb Widowgast~
Okay but Time, Space, Acid, Heat w/Caleb Widowgast sounds like a stoners fanfic

DUDE YES!!!!
Can we talk about how Matt handed Orly’s stutter? Like that’s just excellent character and acting right there
Matt used to stutter as a child, so he would know what it's like!
One of my all-time favourite CR lines from C2 is "Well that just ain't gon' stand, now, is it, chérie? You gotta respect peoples' mmmmMMMM...mmmmmmMMMMMmmmmmmmmMommas."
@@lauras4638 Hearing that character after watching the Between the Sheets and knowing that made it all the more fucking brilliant. I mean Orli was a gem as a standalone, but knowing more about Matt made it all the better.

Liam: "This is so painful, I feel like I need to do a concentration check for my spell" 😂

Fjord: “What makes you think it’s magical” Caleb (the most magically inclined in the party): “uhhh, it’s glowing” amazing
Fun fact, Blink Dogs can perfectly understand Sylvan, so Caleb & Cadeuceus should be able to flawlessly communicate with Nugget
In one direction, yes. They won't get any answers.
Jumpstick 94 yeah but still he could learn faster
Even if it couldn't, Cadeuceus should STILL be able to talk to Nugget.

Technical Note: whoever/whatever does the Closed Captioning for Critical Role does/has done a great job.
I loved the "meta-gaming pigeon coos" at the end. That killed me!
I remember they were asking for volunteers to start doing it way back live. They did great tho. Mad props to those ppl
@@xEvilRaptorx It used to be done by volunteers, who are absolutely amazing people.
I think they've switched to a transcription service these days.
"[Groovy Critical Role theme]" at every intro always gets me, gotta love those captions
There was one caption in camp1 with talesin and his hyper realistic crow sounds. That one was my favorite.
It’s always nice to see a high wisdom character played by a high wisdom person.
I miss Molly. A lot. But Cad is incredibly well done. It fits him like a glove. He gets to be not just clever, but wise. And that is amazing with his chilled personality. The fact he made him in only a few days speaks even more to how talented Talesin is.
Right there with you. I REALLY miss Molly.... But Caduceus is the guy that I want by my side at the flea market.
Cad is hands down my favorite Critical Role character. 😌🍵
Fjord: "You brought... the dog???"
Caduceus, shrugging a little: "He wanted to come."

Then Nott repeated on another context.
funny shit
I love how Travis’s face is visibly red while Beau is in valley girl mode.
When NPC says he's busy working, and she responds, "Perfect, because I need help with something!"
You can see his ghost leave his body. I laughed so hard... Anyone who has worked Customer Service re-lived some repressed memories in that moment.
I'm not sure Travis' soul found his way back yet, every line it left him more
2:42:10 "What makes you think it's magical?" "Uhh, it's glowing..."
*Collective nodding and general agreement amongst the group*
I was so nervous for Taliesin there... You could see he had that same sense of hopelessness he had in Molly's last moments.
Time code?
Not only that but it's always hard to see how both Molly and mister Clay struggle to do anything useful in battle (at least Caduceus can heal and stuff, unlike Molly)
@@Alekranidos09 a lot of that depends on the rolls too. He gets really good skill check rolls but has had terrible luck in battle. It’s just the nature of the game. In the campaign I’m in My rolls have been a lot like Tal’s it really sucks to not be able to contribute in battle because every attack you throw misses.
He wasn’t ready to make a 3rd character
@@Alekranidos09 the stereotype of Molly being useless in battle is pretty unfounded really. Once he stopped casting vicious mockery he was a beast, he had the most kills of the mighty nein before his passing.
It's only appropriate that heavy metal plays when it's Yasha's turn.
Mhm
My mind always plays The Immigrant Song, although I don't know if Xhorhas is the land of the ice and snow.
I felt so bad for Talisen in this. You can see the fear in his eyes that he might lose yet another character during this campaign.
Im not a hater of any CR player. But Travis and Marisha were so oblivious to what was happening in that fight, it was messed up for everyone else since those two do a lot of damage.
@@shuheihisagi6689 Yeah totally. It was kinda rude and also not immersive considering their friends are about to die
@@shuheihisagi6689 Agreed. The focus should always be on the unconscious characters, and the atmosphere should get serious for the moments when that's happening. I get that it's a game and they're there to have fun, but it can't be fun for *Tal* when they're indifferent to his character's danger.
I agree. I appreciate that Travis and Marisha were having so much fun, but I just felt so bad for Taliesin this episode. Also cause I know what it's like to have your character bleed out and have the other players worry more about a cool spell that doesn't help you at all.
I was stressing for Tal so hard. When Molly died, I didn't think I'd be able to like Deucy but he won me over so fast and I would have been so mad if he had to go through that again

Orly is a perfect illustration of Matt's fantastic DMing ability. Fleshed out, multi-faceted, feels real. The tattoos, eyepatch, and bagpipes aren't important to the plot. He didn't have to have a Louisiana accent or a stutter. Didn't have to be a tortle. None of that matters to the story, but it makes for a more engaging and interesting character, which helps make for an engaging and interesting world. And Matt described him very well, too. The texture of the shell, the leatheriness of the skin, the carvings on the eyepatch, the claw scraping the table enough to shave a little wood off it. It's fantastic. It feels like I'm looking at an actual person.
Orly also reminds me of the guy who died at the beginning of Treasure Planet, and it feels like we're getting a look into his life before he crashed by the Benbow Inn.
Orly was actually a community designed Npc that was put into the story. He gets even better later on
Yeah, you can watch the community design here as a part of his fireside chat a while back.
ruclips.net/video/_QhqUCB4rPI/видео.html
And as a resident of Louisiana I liked hearing the accent and it made me pay a bit more attention to the story for a bit, Matt did such a good job with Orly
God, I had the same exact image in my head! I always love to see people giving that movie the respect it deserves 😤
Orly struck me as a gritty reboot of the Kapp'n from the Animal Crossing games...
46:53 It's just now occurring to me how sweet it is that Nott is so excited to see Yasha, and upset that she may not stay long. Seems like just yesterday she was scared shittless of her.
Nott recognizes that the party does much better in fights when Yasha is around making it much less likely that any of her now friends, and much more importantly Caleb, die. That and Yashas response to the flowers and sheltering Nott from the rain had a lot to do with changing Notts opinion of Yasha.
When marisha sang “bill nye the science guy” I instantly looked at Ashley because bill nye plays Patterson’s dad in blindspot 😂😂😂
69th like nice 👍
same
“Caleb...make a saving throw to vore the healing potion”
This show is HILARIOUS
Matt's improv are both amazing and facepalm inducing. The Hellish Rebuke hitting Caduceus was bs, removing the player from combat for no reason. I can't imagine the frustration if for the entire combat you character didn't do anything but death saving throws, because he was being focused and the one time he would have had a turn, the DM pulls a garbage improv, making you take 11 damage.
*frumpkin sits on notts head*
caleb: thats weird
*frumpkin sits on notts shoulder and rubs his tentacles on nott*
caleb: thats ok
I saw this comment before watching the episode and wondered why the cat had tentacles
@@xlr8442 if you've seen "Captain Marvel" then it would make perfect sense
I think a Flerkin has to high of a CR to be a familiar, I could be wrong though.
I read that as “rubs his testicles on nott”
@@yeayea5779 *oh thank god it wasn’t just me*
"Man we're like a strong couple of women!"
Makes me laugh every time
🎵Go strong woman go🎵
I just love the sibling dynamic between Beau, Fjord and Caleb.
I wish I was as excited about anything in life as Travis is watching his friends play D&D lol
Poor Taliesin man sitting there wondering if he's gonna lose another character....
painful to watch, felt that
It's breaking my heart ;-;
Yeaah :(
Yeah man, he seemed so hopeless. Thank god it turned out ok.
That’s not what wandering means, but alright.
Love how Clay’s whole deal is radical honesty - it’s so refreshing!
Especially when the m9 usually gets into trouble for lying when they had no reason too and just overthink things.
Why is it so pleasant whenever Caleb says *GLOBULES*?
I think it's the first "L" that does it. It's a satisfyingly sloppy sound.
I really love how Ashley probably chose to be a barbarian because Pike and Grog were besties; and how Travis just gets so excited for her ragey shit. Grog lives on through Yasha, I feel
Pretty sure she chose barbarian so she could sit out most conversations the way Grog usually did, at least initially. But she really doesn't seem quite as, uh, into it as the others.
@@BigMikeMcBastard Which is then a big issue when she's not never around at all for the majority f the campaign. Just makes you realise that even when she's thee it doesn't really make any difference. Any confers atom with Yasha is like getting blood from a stone.
@@Noobie2k7why are you spitting on Ashley for having an acting job abroad? Your hate isn't welcome here, neither by fans nor by the cast. These people have been friends for years, and Ashley does come back permanently at a certain point, so your point is moot whatever the way you look at it.
The joy each of them gets when their friends do stuff they used to do is so heartwarming. Whether it's rage for Travis or sneak attack for Liam we're not almost three dozen episodes in and it's still like a new joy to them every time.
Tortle: Studders
Everyone: We must protect him at all costs
caduceus's powers are big sippy sips, bug stick, and reading people to filth and back and that's just so valid of him
This is one of my favorite comments on a Critical Role episode of all time
So basically making AND spilling tea
BIG SIPPY SIPS is a whole mood.
get bug sticked lol
Yasha:I'm not sure if I like you...
Caduceus: I KNOW I like you :)
I love these two
I love that Yasha throws shade about the new member. Considering how close they were with Molly, I'd find it really weird if she didn't take any offense and felt like they were just replacing her dead best friend, so I love that Ashley went there
Sooooo much this!! I know there's a metagaming element to folding the new member into the party, but I would have liked it better if there had been a little reluctance to bringing Caduceus along originally. Or even a suggestion of inviting Keg to join them. Yasha instantly being put off by his presence was perfect.
YES! And it’s really really sad that Ashly was not there to even say good bye to Molly... She didn’t get a chance to revenge for him, and she didn’t get a chance to bid farewell.
@@christopherarmstrong8255 My group did this quite well in such a funny way considering our DM told the new player that we would be nice, so after helping us with an encounter we confronted them and the player froze up, but we were jumpy after just pissing off the city so we ended up grappling them dragging them back to camp and tying them up, at one point one of our party members pointed the new players gun at them.
I'd have honestly been happy if they just dropped Ashley and kept Kegg. They'd probably be around atleast the same amount of time and Kegg was more interesting.

Watching Talisen nearling pissing himself laughing while Tracy (Beau) is flirting with the guard is fucking hilarious
I just gotta say, ive been watching critical role since the beginning of C3 and keeping up with it and coming back to watch C2 at the same time, and I’ve become absolutely obsessed with it! It inspired me to gather some of my friends and start playing ourselves, and we just finished our first session today and dude it was so fun! I was DMing and I’m so happy with how it went, the characters they made go together so well and interact in the best ways, and I’m just so thankful for critical role for introducing me to this absolutely amazing game!
no matter what character, matt cant help but love his wife's flirting
@@NimmelTheGreat It certainly was.
@@NimmelTheGreat that's still flirting. The act doesn't have an alignment. Flirting to get your way is as old, if not older than prostitution. Your intentions do not come into the definition.
@@NimmelTheGreatJeez who hurt you.
@@NimmelTheGreat Yeah I understand. Have a good day :)
@@NimmelTheGreat sorry if im late, but in the next episode (35) at around 1:01:50 Marisha said "Where is Marpol, the guy that I flirted with".
Aw, man. I feel so bad for the poor fool that falls for Traci
Same here, I hope the guy gets good luck in the future as a sorry from fate :'(
I'm suddenly reminded of the words to Fergalicious
He's for sure going to show up at the Chateau looking for her in the next few episodes😂😂. Just to inconvenience them all with the consequences of their actions.😂
LIAM KNOWING THE CORRECT CONJUGATION FOR “FUCK ALL OF YOU” IN GERMAN BROUGHT ME IMMEASURABLE JOY
he doesn't
@@MrSeriousSnape :(
@@settratheimperishable4093 I'm sorry, but that's the truth
It would’ve been „fickt euch alle“, not „fick ihr alle“. Liam basically applied English grammar to german and it doesn’t quite work that way (I appreciate the effort tho XD)
Being from New Orleans and just getting to this point this is one of the best cajun accents I've seen. I agree with Travis this tortle must be protected at all costs.
Travis energy an excitement brings an otherworldly level of hype, i can’t wait to catch up to the lastest episode
I love Travis because that wonder at what Matt sometimes describes and does is all of us!
Travis is great because of his immersion in the game. As much as I love Fjord though, Grog will always be my number one because of Travis's perfect facial expressions when RPing Grog.
Man I’m liking Warlock abilities more and more, very cool flair.
That and Travis’ reactions make combat so fun.
Travis is still SOOOOO Grog at heart lol He has the most genuine reactions of anyone at the table IMHO. He always ohhhh's and ahhhhhh's at maps and when people do cool shit. His vibe is awesome.
@@trautsj I love the fact he is basically a really damn big 12 year old
He really needs to understand his abilities more.
Hexblade Curse is to a Hexblade what Rage is to a Barbarian, or Hunter's mark to Ranger.
It is critical to making the class useful. Having extra proficiency mod to BOTH attack and damage is huge. It's aggravating watching him never remember to use it
@@CERap22 I disagree. Hexblade's Curse is a once per short / long rest thing. It cannot be moved from target to target. It does not persist for hours on hours. The Warlock equivalent to Hunter's Mark is Hex, but it eats up a spell slot (of which a Warlock only has 2 until 11th level when they get a 3rd). I would personally be using Hex more, but Travis seems to be saving his slots for other kinds of spells like Hunger of Hadar (which he uses to great effect).
@@govirdrauka7116 I agree. Warlock has so many other cool spells that dedicating one of those valuable spell slots ALWAYS for Hex just seems boring. It definitely has it's use, don't get wrong. When there are multiple targets and you can move it around, definitely worth the spell slot. But using Hunger of Hadar was just so awesome. Summon Lesser/Greater Demon is always a cool aesthetic. Warlocks are so much more than Hex and Eldritch Blast.
I love that Taliesin is always in permanent Cad face. As soon as the game starts he’s in it!
Yes!
molly: *introducing yasha* shes..uh. my bodygaurd.
"i dont think i like you"
"oh, but i know i like you"

WELL....I'm gonna go cry
I hope they show it nicely in web series
3:16:34 the way travis gets hype for his fellow teammates during combat is just amazingly wholesome!
Think he lives for the combat. Grog was the personification of that I think, bet he continues to play melee based characters
I want someone in my life that looks at me the way Marisha looks at Matt when he's rolling out some new character's accent. 15:08
@KyleLee Bowers he comes back!?!
@@Jackie_Tikki_Tavi I could answer, but I don't want to spoil 😝 Keep watching!😁
@@princessblazena you're good now ^^
Marisha has a Gambit fetish😮
There’s so much going on here, some beautiful interactions between the cast. Marisha’s look at Liam when he’s asking about casting 2x spells at different levels. And just Ashley… who is clearly exhausted from travelling is trying so hard and is, as always, perfect.
"Sam : i will hold a crossbow bolt until someone is engaged to one of my friends."
"Fjord : Jester, will you marry me ?"
Nott : *ptoink !*
"Jester : Aaaaaaugh !"
"I'm stealthily so hard im playing the the McElroy's right now." Sam's comedic intellect never ceases to amaze me.
I didn't get that joke, even though I've listened to almost all of TAZ's campaigns. Help?
@@tiril6681 he's saying that he's so stealthy that he's not even in his own DnD game. But instead he's playing with the McElroys.
Taliesin sweating the entire fight got me in a big panic.
Matt incorrectly made him take Whelmed damage twice in one round (when the elemental attacked Jester then at the top of Cad's turn.) He shouldn't have lost consciousness because he shouldn't have taken damage when Jester got attacked
@@Dave_L913 that was probably just a mistake on Matt's part, which I get. My panic actually starts earlier than that though, when Caduceus first gets engulfed by the water elemental. Taliesin having that "not again" look on his face actually seems to happen every battle from this point onward.
@@Hypersaiyanike Unfortunately he's being a lil bitch every time his character is in danger.
@@DieKao That's kind of unfair. He just lost a character he loved, he doesn't want to lose another.
@@DieKao Its understandably frustrating to not be able to do anything for several rounds AND be at risk at losing yet another character within just a few weeks. Its part of the game, but understandable. That's super rude and unfair thing to say.
Whispering at 53:20
Yasha: "They just come in my dreams..."
Jester: "She comes in her dreams! Like you, Fjord."
Fjord: "STOP IT >:("
Seeing everyone cheer and geek out over a tiny fog machine is so wholesome.

Mmmoooolllllllllllyyyyyyyyy
I just love how close and comfortable they all are together where they lean on each other in high emotions or laughter.
Travis's delight at Matt's characters and storytelling and at his fellow players is very wholesome.
I didn’t know I needed Vally Girl Beau in my life till now 😂😂
Marrow Valley Girl
That was a roller coaster of emotions...the anxiety of it maybe not working, then the gradual high and excitement of her success, and the deep plumet down when the poor guy asked her out and memorized her name- how does Matt make me feel bad for an NPC whoes name I've already forgotten??
Average Girl that last bit where he was saying her name again made me feel so bad for the dude
@@victorian298 Same!! Before that he was just an NPC, but Matt pulled that card and I was all "Oh no- he's hot!" *insert distressed Squidward picture*
My brother is ahead of me watching through and he told me about Tracy and omg I love it and hope we see more Tracy
For some reason, when Nott gets angry and starts yelling I see a large pissed off green parrot in my head.
Me first hearing Matt describe the water fish creature: That´s not a Marid, he wouldn´t throw that at a six level party.
Me seeing it´s abilities: Yeah, that´s a Marid.
Haven’t seen the whole series yet, was that the Gentleman’s dad?
@@anondecepticon The marid? That is a genie monster from The monster manual.
Matt has a really bad habit of over tuning encounters. It's why he wracked up such a high body count in the first campaign.
Nah, they're just bad at combat. So many wasted turns and lack of focus fire. When they're not doing dumb shit and focusing on damage they usually breeze thru most encounters
@@jasongustafson2691 Matt's party is larger than most. Plus, last campaign they had a shit-ton of magical items left over from pathfinder.
I love how HYPED Travis was during the battle - for his *and* his teammates' attacks
Travis is so far in this campaign the MVP. He is a great player.
I was almost going to say that it is a criminal act having Ashley in the thumbnail and not having her in the episode but then she joined and everything is right with the world
I love how Taliesin gets so into his characters. He is such a good actor and you can really see how much he loves this game. Also helps that Cadeuces really speaks to me.
Mr. Clay is the zen I need right now.
Yasha: I don't like Clay.
Clay: I make dead tea.
Yasha: (That's pretty metal) Ok you're fine.
The group essentially peer pressuring Nott into the water is one of those things that, in universe, suddenly becomes a LOT harsher down the road.
Fjord: I'm gonna cut this defenseless, subdued man's hand off to get the bracelet.
Also Fjord: "Lawful Good from day one, baby."
I'm a bit late to this series but, this is an evil party, right? I mean, breaking into a government facility to murder a guy because he's creeping on Jester's mom seems definitely on the evil side of the spectrum - definitely not Lawful either.
@@genxmonk2669 on Talks Machina Travis always called Fjord lawful good, even at this point when uhhhhhh ya sure bud? It became a bit of a joke.
@@genxmonk2669 this sounds like a very poor understanding of evil and alignment overall.
This is a chaotic party. Most on the neutral spectrum. Evil parties don't go around going out of their way to help citizens or people. They just don't give much stock towards the law generally.
@@Exaltable Alignments all bullshit anyway and no one agrees on their meanings.
From what my DM told me, alignment doesn’t have much importance in 5e. I’ve only encountered a handful of times where my DM asked us what our alignment is for some magical items and spells.
And being Lawful doesn’t have to be in accordance to societal laws, I think. It can be morals and ideals you’ve made yourself. That’s my opinion tho.
I'm living for Beau and Caleb's increasing sibling-I-never-had energy as the group gets closer 😂
This is entirely roleplay. Nothing in this is real. But when she said "you can't afford it" I was physically wounded.
