X you are an amazing leader, maybe not the kind where you are a hero or rebel leader, but you are the kind of one who sit down and listen and arrange things, you are so under appreciated
It feels good to see that you guys got him in. I am glad to see the group grow and the choice was on point as always. The group that you guys have is wholesome and complement each other so well.
You raiding me just as the next member was scheduled to be announced threw my audience in to a FRENZY. They were so sure I was in HC10 and gaslighting all January hahah - so happy for Skizz and Joel, can't wait to see what they make!!
It's only a matter of time when you're officially a Hermit. Oh the stories you will tell. Keep at it. You're a triple threat, the content creator variety.
Cleo, I loved the genuine warmth and happiness in your voice when you were caving and you said "I'm so glad you're here, Skizz" ❤ I've been really enjoying how happy everyone is to have Skizz there.
So we have Doc to thank for the Hermits starting to hangout more and collab in videos thank you Doc it is something we have all missed it is the best and funniest content 🤣
Oh dang you changed your name! I was kinda hoping you'd make a new channel where you named it biffa plays city skylines and that's where you upload all your indie game play through.
"The entire group wants you to join" - *cries* - so did the community. Welcome Skizz to Hermitcraft. I'm excited for your charm and humor to join the group.
I think that a big reason why the Hermitcraft community is so hyped about Skizz joining the server is because we can see ourselves in him. I would say that 99.8% of us are not as good of a builder as Scar or has a redstone brain like Tango. You are so relatable, Skizz, and now you have what every Hermitcraft fan would give our left leg for - a chance to learn directly from these awesome people. You are the viewers' ambassador on the server, and that position is so exciting and unique. Have you thought about doing something similar like the "Words of Affirmation" that you did on Limited Life, but with learning from the hermits? You could find out one speciality from each hermit and go ask them for a lesson. Like building a tree with Gem, positioning an armour stand with Cleo, learn about gradients with Bdubs or get Etho to show how his hopper clock works. It doesn't have to be anything big, just a small building detail or something. You would start to build up your mental Minecraft knowledge library and the viewers would learn right alongside with you.
This! There were at least four times during that stream where people gave not-so-subtle hints. lol they all gave us the answers right in front of our faces!
Also if you watch Beef and Tango and then do the math on Zitz Olympics the numbers don't add up Tango says 9 hermits but at the time there are only 8 known hermits there so Skizz had to be one Beef had to do a recount in his video so it was all but confirmed that Skizz was one at that time
Can we get Joel on the podcast now? I would love to hear his being asked to HC story. I LOVE that we got to watch Skizz get asked. Love the new members so much! Congrats Skizz!
He got asked because he's the most handsome, best looking, most impressive builder that exist on the world. Oh I'm channeling Joel. yes please get him on next!
Impulse is absolutely right, the best moments in Hermitcraft aren't the mega builds, but the interactions between Hermits. For example, in the launch week of decked out 2, the "hanging around with other Hermits while waiting in line" content was just as entertaining as the "playing decked out, the most insane thing made on Hermitcraft ever" content.
Honestly I think the fact they were using a bit of empty space in one of the most elaborate and convoluted Minecraft builds...ever... to hang out and play build charades really elevated the experience.
I gotta admit that before this season I genuinely thought Skizz was already a hermit for quite a while, and I just kept missing his vids. His inclusion just feels like "yes, this is correct"
Impulse, when you said, "this is great, but I would give anything for this to be Skizz instead of me," it felt my eyes begin to burn because I could feel the love you have for Skizz. The ability to have a true lasting friendship is one of the most precious things God ever gave to mankind.
Thank you Impulse for inviting Skizz on camera, didn't expect that but it was amazing to see that moment! So happy Skizz joined, can't wait to see what's next
when impulse said around 1:10:40 that he would give anything for skizz to be in his place and be the "more successful one" that genuinely made a couple tears drip down my face 🥺
Skizz, the ultimate proof that you belong on Hermitcraft, is that you absolutely nailed that skit you did with Beef! After watching that, I thought: I'm so glad Skizz is on Hermitcraft.
Rewatching this--- I remember watching Grian's first Season 6 episodes where he expressed his own worries that he would be playing on a server where people knew Survival Minecraft a million times more than he did. Hearing Skizz talking about just not wanting to "suck" kind of reminds me of that. Even if incrementally, you'll pick up ideas and techniques and quirks from other people. You're going to do great on Hermitcraft, Skizz. A lot of people are happy you're here for the shenanigans :>
Skizz, people’s love for you isn’t conditional, it’s not dependent on how great of a builder you are. People will watch you and enjoy your videos because you’re an amazing content creator. Don’t forget that! I know it can get hard to get wrapped up in being better, but just know you’re amazing as you are, and you weren’t invited to hermitcraft for no reason, you bring so much to the table.
People guessed skizz and joal because of the Life series. Like 80% of the people on that series are on hermitcraft, and of the ones that aren't, skizz and joal are the two that mesh the best with the existing hermits. I don't know if it was intentional, but the Life series ended up being a bit of a testing ground for new hermits. A place where old hermits can play alongside potential hermits and see how things turn out. Not just with each other, but also how the audiences would react to it.
Well, also just a fun crossover space as well. The rest of the non-hermits in the xlife series are in the off and on Empires smp, and there's even significant overlap between series. Skizz was, I think, the only non empires non hermit in the series, which really speaks to just how GOOD he is in those tight interaction heavy series
Interesting as the Life Series started out as hermits wanting a smaller series which was less effort than the Mega Builds on Hermitcraft to tide them over the space between seasons. And now Life Series has its own fan base ❤ which actually I watched the Life Series before Hermitcraft
Skizz really shouldn't think of his building skills as "totally awful." Think more like "totally relatable." Because he's better than I'll ever be, and he's 300x funnier about it.
Yes agreed. Watching all these God-tier builders is fun and all, but having someone there the average player can relate too makes it feel more welcoming somehow.
11:35 perhaps an odd addition to this entire segment, but I feel like this is why some fans asked for the Hermits to live together in one singular base for a season (or even part of a season); something along the lines of Hermittopia during the Empires Crossover. They wanted more of you guys hanging out with each other, talking about everything and nothing, and just play a fun game together, with us viewers as a fly on the wall. I don't speak for everyone, but to me, this is where Hermitcraft truly shines. Not to take anything away from how astonishing the builds are, or how mindboggling the redstone feats can be, but to me, the soul of Hermitcraft lies within the friendship, comraderie and plain old joy that can be felt between the Hermits. :)
I agree with this. I loved watching Tango's streams where he was watching the hermits play Decked Out because so much of it was just them hanging around waiting their turn and they were so funny and fun together.
This sounds really fun and great on paper, but in reality, you guy will only watch 1-2 popular Hermits and the remaining ones will be tanked in view count. So yeah…
@@dryadeknight2993 Given that myself and a good chunk now watch all the magic mountain crew- it's actually the opposite. Now I've gotta know what's going on when I can kinda see the other builds in the background
Impulse: "Idk how internet sleuths figured it out" Also Impulse, several months ago, while being interviewed by Xisumavoid and told to give only wrong answers, when asked who will be the next person to join Hermitcraft: "Skizzleman"
Back then, they hadn't known if skizz would join, the hermits didn't have the conversation about it at that point. Impulse addressed this on one of his recent streams. He was projecting what he wanted to happen, and then exclaimed "dang it" when he realized that, if that was an answer that followed the rules of the answers, it meant skizz *wouldn't* be joining
The coolest thing about all of this is how overjoyed Impulse is that his best buddy has joined Hermitcraft, it reminds me of a kid going to the theme park with his best friend.
15:45 @MCskizzleman Tango STILL tries to say he is not a builder! His starter base for season 10 has been mistaken for a Bdubs build by at least THREE HERMITS. His deepfrost citadel is one of the best solo Minecraft builds of all time! Tango was once a long time ago not so good at building, and now he is definitively one of the greatest. You have the potential to get there too in time. I imagine your time among hermits will bring out more and more artistic excellence that has lied dormant within you. Just give it time and enjoy the process and your current status. ❤
I always tell people to look at Jevin. The dude worked so hard on becoming a better builder. He said between S7 and S8 that he wanted to take the time to intentionally become a better builder. I saw him spend many nights streaming and just building in creative mode. Testing out things himself, picking chats brain for little tricks to using blocks in creative ways, etc. And he has become an incredible builder.
Same with Mumbo. I remember in Season 8 where Mumbo was insisting that he isn't a builder, and then he made that beautiful waterfall and mountainside village. He may not have started out as a builder, but he definitely learned, and learned well.
This is so true. Now we just need to get Tango to realize, he's not only a fantastic redstoner, but also on the level of BDubs when it comes to building!
That quote I think came when Tango was discussing building with someone, during Life series. Building a Life-base on the fly is quite different from building a HC-base, that has been preplanned and built in creative already.
This season does feel lighter somehow, in a good way. Everything is *fun* and there's more interaction between people. The videos I've seen are more interaction than building time lapses and I love it.
For what it’s worth… Skizz, in a world of “Heavy Hitters” like Hermicraft, you fill the space between that the big builds over shadow. Be the glue and fresh set of eyes to new viewers and players who can’t imagine building such grand designs. You have an opportunity to remind people growth comes with time and experience, something my nine year old needs to be told like a lot of kids who think things just magically happen on the internet. I see Hermitcraft as The Muppets, Empires was like Sesame Street and the Life Series is like Fraggle Rock. Crossovers seem familiar and like family is coming to visit. It is an excellent community that you all should be proud of.
Dude you're so right. Even I, in my twenties, need reminding that what the builders in hermitcraft do isn't automatic born-with talent. You don't have to be able to build. Everyone has their own skills.
This is 100% right. Everything, EVERYTHING you do in life is a process. You have to trust the process and do the work involved in the process. It takes a lot of effort to make it look effortless, and it takes even more to make it take less in the future.
"there are so many swear words i wanna say" HAHA. The tango popping in and "fixing" your problem bit is so damn funny! Skizz, your addition to hermitcraft is so much fun!
“I would give anything for this to be Skizz” you guys have such a beautiful friendship and the pair of you are such an inspiration to a lot of people. Congrats on Hermitcraft, Skizz
That comment made me tear up tbh. And, Skizz 100% deserves this. I think, the main reason why so many of us guessed right was partially us guessing what we really really hoped for (we wanted this so much!!!) and partially what made the most sense (as in who was the best fit and was deserving). So... Yup 👍👍👍🎉💕
To be Honest nobody expects skizz to build an awesome mega build or beautiful landscapes, the humor and personality alone is worth every second he is in the hermitcraft server.
I think you could even turn the whole “not good at building” thing into a segment. You could get together with Bdubs and Scar and I think it would be hilarious to have the good builders try to teach you.
Yessssss Learning w Skizz!!!! I want to learn too. The thing is like I can’t detail like bdubs. Whenever bdubs is building I’m like ?? He wants to use that block? Does that even look good? But then when he finishes its like beautiful and Im like wow I just dont have the instinct to see the bigger picture. I really struggle to trust the process and I just end up building w only like one block that I know I think is pretty. And ends up being like zero variation
@@rachelkim4457 That's so relatable. I remember the first things I ever built though - I never intended to even build anything, I strictly said to my friends NO, I can't do it, but when I actually just built and didn't think about what the other people would say about it, I ended up with something that everyone didn't expect and thought was awesome. AFTER that, I started thinking about it again, and I lost my creative ability for a while. We add so many mental gymnastics that screw us up, I think.
Came here to say the same thing! You've got the best builders in Minecraft at your fingertips, Skiz...use that opportunity! Minecraft Builder University. Be our representative, we need the tips too.
Skizz...if you pursue growing as a builder, do it only because you WANT to...do not do it because you feel you SHOULD. Part of our joy about you joining HC (not to say we'd be unhappy otherwise) is how you don't fit into any previous molds of hermits! You are your own thing! You don't think there should be such a dichotomy between the psychological and the builder aspect, but that dichotomy--that rawness--is exactly what I teuly believe will propel HC into a server that stays relevant and desirable to watch. You singlehandedly are a massive part of that, friend! So please, just have fun and be yourself unashamedly. Can't wait for more of season 10!!!
I think streaming is great for showing the hanging out and goofing off. Grian was blown away that Gem had like 4000 people list watching them chat and fish. And we were just happy as can be to do just that. It was fun and homey and chill. I was working and just watching you all hang out and fish on Cleo’s steam or on Gem’s was just relaxed and fun!! I am so happy to have Skizz join the server and have been loving his streams and videos.
I think the hermits really underestimate how much people want a third space, even online, where they can just be, and hangout with friends with similar interests.
"the entire group wants you to join" And boy should they! Skizz, you're amazing, and I'm so happy you're on Hermitcraft. This season is going to be a ton of fun!
I think Skizz should look at Zedaph about the lack of building skills problem. Don't get me wrong Zedaph is a good builder but definitely not as amazing as some of the others Hermits, however, his content is almost never about the builds, and his way of looking at minecraft (and hermitcraft) has created some of the best moments I've seen on Hermitcraft. I get the feeling that Zedaph looks at building as a set for his comedy movies and I love it so much My point is that although I think he should get better at building, it doesn't have to be (and, in this case and in my opinion, shouldn't be) the main focus.
1:10:29 it honestly made me tear up when Impulse said he would do anything for it to be Skizz. True definition of friendship. Everyone needs a friends like that..❤❤
We all knew because Skizz and Joel just had the right vibes. Between cross overs, decked out 2, and all the videos together (guess that build, phasmo,those types of things) Skizz and Joel just meshed really well and also had exactly the kind of skills and personalities that would enhance Hermitcraft. We are so excited to get to watch Skizz and Joel this season. I’ve never been more happy for a person I don’t know than I was getting the confirmation that Skizz was going to be on this season.
That moment where Cleo’s expresses how happy she is you’re now on Hermitcraft was so touching. Maybe you left it in for you more than anyone else but it did generate a sense of shared joy for me as a viewer. The best way to describe it is like, that feeling you get when your child has made great first impressions at kindergarten and now all the kids want to play with them. That sounds weird, but that’s what it’s like. Viewers who knew you before Hermitcraft love that you’re meshing so well with the rest of the hermits and having fun! 😊
I just got to that part and I teared up too. They have such a fantastic friendship. Like, how happy they are for each other and how much they want good things for the other person is how all friendships should be.
skizz is the jimmy of the hermitcraft server. you dont need to be able to build when you are capable of bringing that kind of personality into hermitcraft. this server showcases the epitome of the minecraft player and every hermit brings their own flavor into the mix, be it building, redstone, personality, whatever. skizz is just a good dude that i reckon folks want to watch no matter what he's up to. i certainly fall into that group. couldnt be more stoked for this addition. skizz is bound to add his own spice to every hermit's narrative and the value that adds to every viewer of each individual channel is incredible.
14:01 my favorite part of hermitcraft has always been the beginning of the season when all the hermits are hanging out. I love how his season has had a much more social feel.
33:30 - I heard the immediate chemistry between your delivery and VintageBeef's and immediately thought "Oh, boy. Those two are going to be Keralis and xB level shenanigans together and I'm down for it."
That opening almost made me cry. You and Joel already brought so much to the server. It's been a delight and seeing you finally there is just pure joy. :)
This intro… I was both laughing like a maniac and crying like a maniac at the same time…. This couldn’t have gone more wholesomely. The look on impulses face… i was shaking with laughter and tears I couldnt control myself. And then…. I scrolled down into the comments to cry with other people and I saw… EVERY SINGLE HERMIT IN THE COMMENTS? My little heart isn’t big enough for all this wholesomeness, man! The beam on impulses face as he invited his best bud on… it makes skizz being on hermitcraft even BETTER…. who knew skizz could get better?
The replay buffer is a god tier addition to OBS, I really really hope you guys convince the other hermits to start using it! For example, hearing Etho and Stress say “aw man I wasn’t recording but I got demise’d” was so sad.
Hearing you invite Skizz to Hermitcraft and his reaction just made me cry with joy! Literally tears running down my face, because I know how huge this is! Congrats, Skizz! We love having you on Hermitcraft, finally!! So well deserved!
Honestly, I figured it out when there was so much talk about Skizz getting a new PC and camera and talk about lighting and all that in the past couple podcasts. Then Skizz gets more and more involved with the Hermits in their side projects. Playing Plate Up with Tango, playing Phasmo and other things with Gem, Scar and Bdubs. That's how you get known by the other Hermits to be a genuine, positive, great person who will continue to fit in with everyone on the server. Congrats for real, Skizz as well as Impulse because he gets to play on the sever with his best friend finally.
I've been enjoying Skizz's Tango "Don't be That Guy" segments. I'm really glad to see your heart in hermitcraft, Skizz. My draw to watching them has always been their friendships, I'm glad Imp's bestie is in there now! I can also appreciate that it's a big step, because it calls for a larger commitment than how HC started to what they are now.
Impulse, you planning this genius plan to record Skizz's reaction was genius! I was so nervous watching that intro AND I KNOW THAT SKIZZ SAID YES lol so glad to have him on hermitcraft
Just putting this out there, 20 bazillion people, including myself, watched Tango either dig dirt or count to ten. If the audience loves you, it doesn't matter what you do. It's the joys, fails, and laughs along the way that's important. And when Tango finished decked out, it was almost as if we helped him get there, as if we accomplished something too. 😊
I would also like to share a short story with you, @MCSkizzleman . I used to think that I hated reading for nearly 2 decades of my life. I was also bad at english in school, even though english is my first language. In the 12th grade, I discovered that I loved older english books, such as La Morte D'Arthur, The Canterbury Tales, and the like. You aren't a bad builder, Skizz. You just haven't found the right book. 😉
“There are some curse words I want to say out of joy” 😂 I’m so glad Skizz joined!! I’m so excited to see his personality in the Hermitcraft realm and all of the interactions I KNOW are going to be comedic gold 🥰
11:39 I think it's because everyone is deciding to get back to the roots of minecraft instead of jumping into the grandiose structures. People are closer, people are interacting, everything is amazing now even more than it has been in previous seasons. I'm here for the ride
I've been wondering if they were ever going to attempt another season 4 again given all the talks about taking it easy on the builds and I'm here for it
it's interesting because it seems that Joe and Doc have enormous projects planned, and I have seen so little of them. small projects close by means more content, interactions, and fun. I hope that the mega things don't stop those two from being super involved.
Skizz you being a “bad” builder is a breath of fresh air. I look at these massive builds and go I will NEVER be able to do that. I am hoping to build my skills with you. I would love if you get tips from your fellow hermits you can pass them on in your videos. I want to learn right beside you🥰
I was introduced to Skizz during the Among Us streams via Tango, Grian, and Scar. At first i just figured Skizz was just "another streamer" and i didn't pay much attention to his personality. It wasnt until i decided to check out this podcast many months ago and soon realized that Skizz is an absolute gem of a human being. So much so that I've added his quote "Nothing has ever been done until the first time it has been done" to my email endings (credit going to him of course). The news of Skizz joining Season 10 literally got me so amped, now getting to experience his sense of humor and his exceptional words of wisdom to the hermits is gonna be phenomenal to watch. I'm so proud of him and can't wait to see his impact on the server, which I can already tell is gonna be massive. You truly deserve it. Congratulations Skizzleman!
When Grian first started he led storylines by being the pesky younger brother of the server. I see Skizz leading by being the thoughtful person that he is.
Skizz I'm also not a great builder, to make something pretty takes me several iterations. In the last server with my friends I built a giant house entirely of cobble and played it off as "The Cobble Kingdom" and just kept doing little things to it over many weeks until finally I textured the walls, terraformed the exterior, and wound up with a BEAUTIFUL structure even if all my friends were skeptical. It took me so long because of how many times I had to basically redo things, but it was such a positive learning experience. Don't be afraid to make something ugly! Just build! Then play with it until you find things you like and you'll develop your style eventually :)
Having watched Hermitcraft for years, near its beginning. Skizz should never worry about being a great builder. Go back and watch when some of the other Hermits in early seasons first joined and what they first built. They didn’t all start off being where they are now. Watching them all grow over the years and become even more amazing has been the journey. It’ll all come with time. Just have fun, that makes the best content, when the Hermits are enjoying themselves.
even joel himself wasn't a great builder as recently as early 2020, his first major survival build was 2021 in empires s1. He decided he wanted to be a good builder in early 2020 and became one of the best builders on Empires, along with creating arguably the best build on the server among other empires members who had been building for years before him. Practice makes perfect.
I think the reason everyone knew it was going to be Skizz and Joel is because we've all seen you guys play together so much. Since membership on Hermitcraft is based on you guys being a group of friends and who you mesh with well it was easy to see who those people would be.
25:00 that just proves to me how much of an amazing person Skizz is. Being willing to pay the lost wages because he asked them to stop at a certain time. I've done construction type work for a good majority of my life, and people like that are the best to work for! They're the best clients
Rocking totally awful is what every music teacher has always told me "if youre the best person in the room, youre in the wrong room" Also, X is an excellent excellent leader. Askigg for people to talk is up to the top on leadership things
The bit when Cleo said "I'm so glad you're here Skizz" REALLY stood out to me too. I've watched HC since S3 and this is the most excited I've been for a season and it's mostly cause Skizz is on!! Every time I see his name in chat in other Hermit's videos it warms my heart. Impulses' bit at the end was so sincere as well. Sizz, you're gonna grow so much, fumble here and there which inevitable, but it's all part of the journey and you'll own every moment. Everybody is excited you're on the server! Just keep being your silly but caring self and everything will keep falling into place.
Joel and Skizz just made sense!!! Between the life series and being friends with many of the hermits (and the fact that Joel was literally on Hermitcraft Season 9 for 2 separate events), they made the most sense ti be added, especially when you eliminate other contestants due to other factors. Plus, I think it was a lot of hopeful thinking and manifestation from the community, who really wanted to see you both join! ^-^ I’m so glad to see you on Hermitcraft, Skizz! I hope you have the best season
Hermitcraft Season 10 has the vibe of a sports team that won the championship last year. The core is solid - now adding support pieces for variety and longevity. Loving all the collaboration so far.
Regarding creative mode building, I think Gem was really smart to stream some of her time in creative Minecraft when she was experimenting with building styles. It doesn't have to be a 100% solo offline experience. I would totally watch Hermits in a small creative world just testing out ideas or teaching each other building tips that could be brought over to the main server. Stream would be fun for audience interaction, but it could also make a funny training montage.
11:00 I love that the Hermits came to that realization because it's the reason I watch all the videos. I've always love the times when they all were just goofing off together. The increase in VODs of all their streams has also been so fun.
For those who didn’t see Beef’s Ep Skizz works for Big Salmon so getting this much time off is a big deal Congrats Skizz this season is already my favorite
This season of Hermitcraft seems so special to me. The vibes are great, in general--people focusing on socializing and having fun rather than instantly building megabases and endbusting and doing massive projects immediately. Watching this group of friends just having fun, what you describe as the "roots" of Hermitcraft... I think it's what we need right now. One of the reasons I loved watching TFC was because of how he just did his thing. I love watching Doc do his thing too, his thing is just being wild and breaking the game. But it's what's fun to him. Dynamics like Stress and Iskall are enjoyable to watch because it is just friends having a goof. I think that's why so many people enjoy watching Grian and Scar and Mumbo; they're the trio that got me into Hermitcraft because seeing friends having fun and interacting with each other is what's important about a server. Skizz, you have the ability to increase that fun with anyone you're with. You have wonderful dynamics with so many people on Hermitcraft already, and you're creating new dynamics that are so enjoyable to watch already, like with the "Big Salmon" bit. I can't wait to watch you grow as a builder. You referenced "layers," and that reminds me of a lot of the older buildings/cities. Instead of things being completely torn down and replaced like they are now, they are changed overtime. New areas built on more and more. And when you look at ruins and the remains, you can see remnants of those that came before it. It's still a part of it. A lot of newer and younger Hermitcraft fans don't understand it's meant to be a group of friends just having fun. We can be too caught up in the extravagance of big builds and awe-inspiring projects and in-depth stories because that's what the algorithm has served to us. You represent that Hermitcraft is coming back to its roots. And fans of you have been saying so for a bit. I remember seeing a post maybe a year or so ago talking about how Hermitcraft needs you. This love for you isn't new. And we're all so excited to see you here and can't wait to watch your journey continue.
I just want to say that I actually really like the moments where tango pops in and corrects skizz on server etiquette. It's really a fun way to address it especially for new players coming in who might want to join servers, but don't understand these things, because a lot of servers are just quick to ban people rather than work with new players. I know I struggled with it a bit when I first started playing.
There are builders, terraformers, redstoners and storytellers on servers. You're a storyteller Skizz! You'll do fantastic! Jimmy also was known for being a bad builder, but he has grown so much during Empires and I'm totally confident you'll grow like that too! Just watch the difference between week 1 season 10 and week 1 of season 11 in the future and you'll already see Minecraft growth! But don't forget, we love you for your social skills and storytelling and that's something you already bring to the server in abundance ❤ Good luck and have fun Skizz!❤
The covering of the perimeter was such a fun plot point, but I never could have guessed it would have had such a big impact. This season is everything I’ve ever wanted so far. Of course I love seeing these big wonderful builds, but I missed the community that came with things like the shopping district in season 7. I’m so excited to see how this season progresses for everyone!
Thought i was gonna cry at the invitation recording since Impy teased it this week but the last five minutes where Impulse said he felt Skizz should be the one in the creator shoes instead had me welling up. So happy for you skizz. Can't wait to see the positivity and fun you will surely bring to Hermitcraft
Hermits have made the right decision to focus on the comeraderie and just playing together, which is what makes the content so enjoyable. The building is secondary, in my opinion, as a fan.
Such a cool moment for Imp and Skizz. Cant wait to play some MC with you Skizz!
Hey Jevin!
step ur game up bud, you are the one of the most boring ones, take some improv classes or something
Jev take him endbusting

Loved this so much! Welcome once again, Skizz!
Can't wait to see more between you and Skizz!
it's all part of BIG SALMON's plans
Skizz skit was pure gold. You have time for Life series? You'd be perfect for that.
I want more of this Big Salmon arc! It was hilarious!
Beef, you and Skizz are magic together! More please!
Oh man, the joy it brought me to see this all those months ago! Glad the whole community gets to see this now :-) Welcome to Hermitcraft Skizz!
You are all such good friends for each other. Wish i could find a group like ya'll to just chill and make content with.
Y'all broke Skizz. Lol
We need to get Skizz to 9million subs
X you are an amazing leader, maybe not the kind where you are a hero or rebel leader, but you are the kind of one who sit down and listen and arrange things, you are so under appreciated
It feels good to see that you guys got him in. I am glad to see the group grow and the choice was on point as always. The group that you guys have is wholesome and complement each other so well.
You raiding me just as the next member was scheduled to be announced threw my audience in to a FRENZY. They were so sure I was in HC10 and gaslighting all January hahah - so happy for Skizz and Joel, can't wait to see what they make!!
as part of the frenzy i can confirm i was tearing at the walls
Live laugh love martyn
@martyn can't wait for next season when you join
I don't think you're ever escaping speculation regardless. Martyn InTheLittleWood is a minecraft institution.
It's only a matter of time when you're officially a Hermit. Oh the stories you will tell. Keep at it. You're a triple threat, the content creator variety.
Skizz, so glad you're here, I got so choked up when I first saw this intro
Heartwarming af. So glad he's officially part of the group ❤️
🥹💚
Im having several tears running down my cheek right now😭
Cleo, I loved the genuine warmth and happiness in your voice when you were caving and you said "I'm so glad you're here, Skizz" ❤ I've been really enjoying how happy everyone is to have Skizz there.
Same!! Same same same!
congrats skizz!!
MISTICAT!?
Hehe catmystt
❤
The goat bringing Hermits together even on vacation
when we getting doc on the podcast?
So we have Doc to thank for the Hermits starting to hangout more and collab in videos thank you Doc it is something we have all missed it is the best and funniest content 🤣
The fact that it was because of the most grinding freak of all of them is just toooooo funny xD@@bunyan4.20
I'd pay for your ticket to be on this pod as a guest doc
That was just fantastic, touching indeed. Congrats Skizz, been enjoying your videos a lot 😁
Hi Biffa!
Oh dang you changed your name! I was kinda hoping you'd make a new channel where you named it biffa plays city skylines and that's where you upload all your indie game play through.
Come back, Tea Eaters collection, vol 3. We're all waiting for you.
BIFFA?
"The entire group wants you to join" - *cries* - so did the community. Welcome Skizz to Hermitcraft. I'm excited for your charm and humor to join the group.
I read this comment as I actively had tears in my eyes from all the love Skizz is getting
I think that a big reason why the Hermitcraft community is so hyped about Skizz joining the server is because we can see ourselves in him.
I would say that 99.8% of us are not as good of a builder as Scar or has a redstone brain like Tango.
You are so relatable, Skizz, and now you have what every Hermitcraft fan would give our left leg for - a chance to learn directly from these awesome people.
You are the viewers' ambassador on the server, and that position is so exciting and unique.
Have you thought about doing something similar like the "Words of Affirmation" that you did on Limited Life, but with learning from the hermits?
You could find out one speciality from each hermit and go ask them for a lesson. Like building a tree with Gem, positioning an armour stand with Cleo, learn about gradients with Bdubs or get Etho to show how his hopper clock works.
It doesn't have to be anything big, just a small building detail or something.
You would start to build up your mental Minecraft knowledge library and the viewers would learn right alongside with you.
This comment absolutely needs more upvotes!
yes yes yes yes yes!! i love this idea so much and i think the viewers could also learn so much from little lessons from each hermit!
Yes! That is a great idea!
Ask Xb on lessons to beat Keralis in all games 😂
This is a genius idea
Also, Doc kind of did a subtle confirmation during the Zedolympics, when he told Skizz "Don't worry Skizz, I'll show you how redstone works... soon."
This! There were at least four times during that stream where people gave not-so-subtle hints. lol they all gave us the answers right in front of our faces!
Also if you watch Beef and Tango and then do the math on Zitz Olympics the numbers don't add up Tango says 9 hermits but at the time there are only 8 known hermits there so Skizz had to be one Beef had to do a recount in his video so it was all but confirmed that Skizz was one at that time
I didn't catch that. And how very villain-like of doc,lol.
Can we get Joel on the podcast now? I would love to hear his being asked to HC story. I LOVE that we got to watch Skizz get asked. Love the new members so much! Congrats Skizz!
YES!
Yes please!
He got asked because he's the most handsome, best looking, most impressive builder that exist on the world. Oh I'm channeling Joel.
yes please get him on next!
@@korenn9381 he is also very tall. And modest.
@@korenn9381 and tall!
Impulse having the anxiety of a marriage proposal
It really was like he was proposing! Just adorable.
Impulse is absolutely right, the best moments in Hermitcraft aren't the mega builds, but the interactions between Hermits.
For example, in the launch week of decked out 2, the "hanging around with other Hermits while waiting in line" content was just as entertaining as the "playing decked out, the most insane thing made on Hermitcraft ever" content.
Honestly I think the fact they were using a bit of empty space in one of the most elaborate and convoluted Minecraft builds...ever... to hang out and play build charades really elevated the experience.
I loved the Ren Martyn demon bit during Decked Out 2.
The hanging out in line part is what gave us "Neck Kisses" from Joel and I will forever be thankful that that gem was given to us.
Oh this intro nearly made me cry. Skizz you deserve it man, your reaction to being invited proves that.
💯
Agreed!!!! I have wanted this for him for a long time!
Yes this me too
You're better then I am, I did shed tears! ❤️
I gotta admit that before this season I genuinely thought Skizz was already a hermit for quite a while, and I just kept missing his vids. His inclusion just feels like "yes, this is correct"
Impulse, when you said, "this is great, but I would give anything for this to be Skizz instead of me," it felt my eyes begin to burn because I could feel the love you have for Skizz. The ability to have a true lasting friendship is one of the most precious things God ever gave to mankind.
That literally brought a tear to my eye
same :')@@Cykotiq
Thank you Impulse for inviting Skizz on camera, didn't expect that but it was amazing to see that moment! So happy Skizz joined, can't wait to see what's next
Brilliant move, both for us and for Skizz and their posterity!
"Why are we recording this?" 😂😂
yo the witness
when impulse said around 1:10:40 that he would give anything for skizz to be in his place and be the "more successful one" that genuinely made a couple tears drip down my face 🥺
Same ahhh
Hermits need to stop making me cry how dare they haha
Skizz, the ultimate proof that you belong on Hermitcraft, is that you absolutely nailed that skit you did with Beef! After watching that, I thought: I'm so glad Skizz is on Hermitcraft.
wait which bit? Which ep is it in?
@@politoed06 Beef's latest episode (HC s10e02) near the end of the episode. The bit starts at 23:40
@@Chase19898 Thank you! Didnt realise he dropped a new one
He played that character perfectly😂!!
Agreed. I was like "Whoa skizz is so committed to this bit, this feels really unique"
The pure, unfiltered, JOY on Impulses face is too sweet T^T. I've rewatched/relistened to that intro an unholy amount of times.
A large part of the fandom deducing that skizz and joel were the two new hermits was mainly hopeful because we love both of them so much.
Yeah. There were my top picks for new members, and I got exactly what I wanted lol.
Yes! For about 5 years I've thought Joel would fit well in hermitcraft!
Rewatching this--- I remember watching Grian's first Season 6 episodes where he expressed his own worries that he would be playing on a server where people knew Survival Minecraft a million times more than he did. Hearing Skizz talking about just not wanting to "suck" kind of reminds me of that.
Even if incrementally, you'll pick up ideas and techniques and quirks from other people. You're going to do great on Hermitcraft, Skizz. A lot of people are happy you're here for the shenanigans :>
Skizz, people’s love for you isn’t conditional, it’s not dependent on how great of a builder you are. People will watch you and enjoy your videos because you’re an amazing content creator. Don’t forget that! I know it can get hard to get wrapped up in being better, but just know you’re amazing as you are, and you weren’t invited to hermitcraft for no reason, you bring so much to the table.
Build a dirt hut, use wooden tools, whatever, just be you, Skizz.
Nah, it's conditional. If he shaves off that epic beard, I'll leave. 😊
@@BlackSun6393 Even that would be a thing on its own :D in Germany we would say he's living like a real "Waldschrat" xD
I like how this was recorded when Skizz had ~95k subs and less than 10 days into Hermitcraft he's at 120k and growing. 🙂
It’s so great to see. I love Skizz, he’s such a pure soul and so so funny. I’m so hyped for him.
" why are we recording this... I want to say so many cuss words" 😂😂 congratulations Skizz. You're going to bring so much joy and fun to the server!
People guessed skizz and joal because of the Life series.
Like 80% of the people on that series are on hermitcraft, and of the ones that aren't, skizz and joal are the two that mesh the best with the existing hermits.
I don't know if it was intentional, but the Life series ended up being a bit of a testing ground for new hermits. A place where old hermits can play alongside potential hermits and see how things turn out. Not just with each other, but also how the audiences would react to it.
Well, also just a fun crossover space as well. The rest of the non-hermits in the xlife series are in the off and on Empires smp, and there's even significant overlap between series.
Skizz was, I think, the only non empires non hermit in the series, which really speaks to just how GOOD he is in those tight interaction heavy series
That's a very interesting thought about the Life Series. I can't believe I never thought about it like that lol
Interesting as the Life Series started out as hermits wanting a smaller series which was less effort than the Mega Builds on Hermitcraft to tide them over the space between seasons. And now Life Series has its own fan base ❤ which actually I watched the Life Series before Hermitcraft
martyn and bigb are not on empires or hermitcraft too @@amiablereaper
@@dania4407Honestly im 100% expecting martyn to be in Hermitcraft next season
Skizz really shouldn't think of his building skills as "totally awful."
Think more like "totally relatable."
Because he's better than I'll ever be, and he's 300x funnier about it.
YES the things I’ve seen him build feel really similar to what the average person will do in Minecraft which, among the hermits, feels really fresh!
Yes agreed. Watching all these God-tier builders is fun and all, but having someone there the average player can relate too makes it feel more welcoming somehow.
💯
His starter base on Hermitcraft is something I feel like 99% of players who don't call themselves builders would be happy with.
11:35 perhaps an odd addition to this entire segment, but I feel like this is why some fans asked for the Hermits to live together in one singular base for a season (or even part of a season); something along the lines of Hermittopia during the Empires Crossover. They wanted more of you guys hanging out with each other, talking about everything and nothing, and just play a fun game together, with us viewers as a fly on the wall. I don't speak for everyone, but to me, this is where Hermitcraft truly shines. Not to take anything away from how astonishing the builds are, or how mindboggling the redstone feats can be, but to me, the soul of Hermitcraft lies within the friendship, comraderie and plain old joy that can be felt between the Hermits. :)
I agree with this. I loved watching Tango's streams where he was watching the hermits play Decked Out because so much of it was just them hanging around waiting their turn and they were so funny and fun together.
No for real this is 100% what my little corner of fandom were wanting.
I also agree
This sounds really fun and great on paper, but in reality, you guy will only watch 1-2 popular Hermits and the remaining ones will be tanked in view count. So yeah…
@@dryadeknight2993 Given that myself and a good chunk now watch all the magic mountain crew- it's actually the opposite. Now I've gotta know what's going on when I can kinda see the other builds in the background
Impulse: "Idk how internet sleuths figured it out"
Also Impulse, several months ago, while being interviewed by Xisumavoid and told to give only wrong answers, when asked who will be the next person to join Hermitcraft: "Skizzleman"
"dang it!"
But also the bigger clues were his interaction with Hermits and closeness to Impulse and Tango.
Back then, they hadn't known if skizz would join, the hermits didn't have the conversation about it at that point.
Impulse addressed this on one of his recent streams. He was projecting what he wanted to happen, and then exclaimed "dang it" when he realized that, if that was an answer that followed the rules of the answers, it meant skizz *wouldn't* be joining
That was long before they asked skizz, it was more out of not wanting to jinx that EVER
The coolest thing about all of this is how overjoyed Impulse is that his best buddy has joined Hermitcraft, it reminds me of a kid going to the theme park with his best friend.
15:45 @MCskizzleman Tango STILL tries to say he is not a builder! His starter base for season 10 has been mistaken for a Bdubs build by at least THREE HERMITS. His deepfrost citadel is one of the best solo Minecraft builds of all time! Tango was once a long time ago not so good at building, and now he is definitively one of the greatest. You have the potential to get there too in time. I imagine your time among hermits will bring out more and more artistic excellence that has lied dormant within you. Just give it time and enjoy the process and your current status. ❤
I always tell people to look at Jevin. The dude worked so hard on becoming a better builder. He said between S7 and S8 that he wanted to take the time to intentionally become a better builder. I saw him spend many nights streaming and just building in creative mode. Testing out things himself, picking chats brain for little tricks to using blocks in creative ways, etc. And he has become an incredible builder.
Same with Mumbo. I remember in Season 8 where Mumbo was insisting that he isn't a builder, and then he made that beautiful waterfall and mountainside village. He may not have started out as a builder, but he definitely learned, and learned well.
This is so true. Now we just need to get Tango to realize, he's not only a fantastic redstoner, but also on the level of BDubs when it comes to building!
That quote I think came when Tango was discussing building with someone, during Life series. Building a Life-base on the fly is quite different from building a HC-base, that has been preplanned and built in creative already.
@@anderslarsen1321 yes I believe he said he wasn't a builder to Jimmy. However, I have heard him say it other times.
This season does feel lighter somehow, in a good way. Everything is *fun* and there's more interaction between people. The videos I've seen are more interaction than building time lapses and I love it.
true and I find myself WANTING to watch everyone now when for idk how many years I've always watched a selected few. This is such a fun season so far
For what it’s worth… Skizz, in a world of “Heavy Hitters” like Hermicraft, you fill the space between that the big builds over shadow. Be the glue and fresh set of eyes to new viewers and players who can’t imagine building such grand designs. You have an opportunity to remind people growth comes with time and experience, something my nine year old needs to be told like a lot of kids who think things just magically happen on the internet. I see Hermitcraft as The Muppets, Empires was like Sesame Street and the Life Series is like Fraggle Rock. Crossovers seem familiar and like family is coming to visit. It is an excellent community that you all should be proud of.
This is such a great comment and spot on! Skizz is a bridge for us both into the Hermit world through his eyes, and learn along with him!
This is exactly a thought I had
Dude you're so right. Even I, in my twenties, need reminding that what the builders in hermitcraft do isn't automatic born-with talent. You don't have to be able to build. Everyone has their own skills.
This is 100% right. Everything, EVERYTHING you do in life is a process. You have to trust the process and do the work involved in the process. It takes a lot of effort to make it look effortless, and it takes even more to make it take less in the future.
Eloquent and agree.
"there are so many swear words i wanna say" HAHA. The tango popping in and "fixing" your problem bit is so damn funny! Skizz, your addition to hermitcraft is so much fun!
It was hilarious when Tango's phone chimed through the mic and Skizz immediately got blamed for it.
“I would give anything for this to be Skizz” you guys have such a beautiful friendship and the pair of you are such an inspiration to a lot of people. Congrats on Hermitcraft, Skizz
That comment made me tear up tbh. And, Skizz 100% deserves this.
I think, the main reason why so many of us guessed right was partially us guessing what we really really hoped for (we wanted this so much!!!) and partially what made the most sense (as in who was the best fit and was deserving). So... Yup 👍👍👍🎉💕
13:00 that sums it up PERFECTLY, Impulse.
"We're a group of friends that just enjoy playing a video game together."
To be Honest nobody expects skizz to build an awesome mega build or beautiful landscapes, the humor and personality alone is worth every second he is in the hermitcraft server.
I do! He's capable with some learning, it'll be in his style, and he'll probably think it stinks. But I have faith he can get there if he wants.
That’s my favourite part of Skizz. He’s got a killer sense of humour.
I think you could even turn the whole “not good at building” thing into a segment. You could get together with Bdubs and Scar and I think it would be hilarious to have the good builders try to teach you.
I think this is a fantastic idea
From a content creation standpoint this has great retention as viewers would also want to learn
Yessssss Learning w Skizz!!!! I want to learn too. The thing is like I can’t detail like bdubs. Whenever bdubs is building I’m like ?? He wants to use that block? Does that even look good? But then when he finishes its like beautiful and Im like wow I just dont have the instinct to see the bigger picture. I really struggle to trust the process and I just end up building w only like one block that I know I think is pretty. And ends up being like zero variation
@@rachelkim4457 That's so relatable. I remember the first things I ever built though - I never intended to even build anything, I strictly said to my friends NO, I can't do it, but when I actually just built and didn't think about what the other people would say about it, I ended up with something that everyone didn't expect and thought was awesome. AFTER that, I started thinking about it again, and I lost my creative ability for a while. We add so many mental gymnastics that screw us up, I think.
Came here to say the same thing! You've got the best builders in Minecraft at your fingertips, Skiz...use that opportunity! Minecraft Builder University. Be our representative, we need the tips too.
Skizz...if you pursue growing as a builder, do it only because you WANT to...do not do it because you feel you SHOULD.
Part of our joy about you joining HC (not to say we'd be unhappy otherwise) is how you don't fit into any previous molds of hermits!
You are your own thing! You don't think there should be such a dichotomy between the psychological and the builder aspect, but that dichotomy--that rawness--is exactly what I teuly believe will propel HC into a server that stays relevant and desirable to watch. You singlehandedly are a massive part of that, friend!
So please, just have fun and be yourself unashamedly. Can't wait for more of season 10!!!
Exactly. We have lots (and lots!) of beautiful builders on Hermitcraft, but we only have one Skizz!
Impulse is a real one for catching it on camera when he asked skizz to join! I can’t exit to watch the rest of this I’ve been so curious
I think streaming is great for showing the hanging out and goofing off. Grian was blown away that Gem had like 4000 people list watching them chat and fish. And we were just happy as can be to do just that. It was fun and homey and chill. I was working and just watching you all hang out and fish on Cleo’s steam or on Gem’s was just relaxed and fun!! I am so happy to have Skizz join the server and have been loving his streams and videos.
I think the hermits really underestimate how much people want a third space, even online, where they can just be, and hangout with friends with similar interests.
i wasn’t even there for gems stream, but when i saw the vod i watched the whole thing for some reason!
"the entire group wants you to join"
And boy should they! Skizz, you're amazing, and I'm so happy you're on Hermitcraft. This season is going to be a ton of fun!
34:21 I know that moment specifically, Skizz did his woohoohoo Mario sound and Cleo had realized that it wasn't a sound board and that was just Skizz
I think Skizz should look at Zedaph about the lack of building skills problem. Don't get me wrong Zedaph is a good builder but definitely not as amazing as some of the others Hermits, however, his content is almost never about the builds, and his way of looking at minecraft (and hermitcraft) has created some of the best moments I've seen on Hermitcraft. I get the feeling that Zedaph looks at building as a set for his comedy movies and I love it so much
My point is that although I think he should get better at building, it doesn't have to be (and, in this case and in my opinion, shouldn't be) the main focus.
1:10:29 it honestly made me tear up when Impulse said he would do anything for it to be Skizz. True definition of friendship. Everyone needs a friends like that..❤❤
Same!
We all knew because Skizz and Joel just had the right vibes. Between cross overs, decked out 2, and all the videos together (guess that build, phasmo,those types of things) Skizz and Joel just meshed really well and also had exactly the kind of skills and personalities that would enhance Hermitcraft. We are so excited to get to watch Skizz and Joel this season. I’ve never been more happy for a person I don’t know than I was getting the confirmation that Skizz was going to be on this season.
That moment where Cleo’s expresses how happy she is you’re now on Hermitcraft was so touching. Maybe you left it in for you more than anyone else but it did generate a sense of shared joy for me as a viewer. The best way to describe it is like, that feeling you get when your child has made great first impressions at kindergarten and now all the kids want to play with them. That sounds weird, but that’s what it’s like. Viewers who knew you before Hermitcraft love that you’re meshing so well with the rest of the hermits and having fun! 😊
1:10:40 This almost made me cry, it’s so wholesome to see how much Impulse cares about Skizz.
I just got to that part and I teared up too. They have such a fantastic friendship. Like, how happy they are for each other and how much they want good things for the other person is how all friendships should be.
skizz is the jimmy of the hermitcraft server. you dont need to be able to build when you are capable of bringing that kind of personality into hermitcraft. this server showcases the epitome of the minecraft player and every hermit brings their own flavor into the mix, be it building, redstone, personality, whatever. skizz is just a good dude that i reckon folks want to watch no matter what he's up to. i certainly fall into that group. couldnt be more stoked for this addition. skizz is bound to add his own spice to every hermit's narrative and the value that adds to every viewer of each individual channel is incredible.
I love that they recorded Skizz being told he is invited.
14:01 my favorite part of hermitcraft has always been the beginning of the season when all the hermits are hanging out.
I love how his season has had a much more social feel.
skizz passed 100k AND IS ON HERMITCRAFT YAYYY
33:30 - I heard the immediate chemistry between your delivery and VintageBeef's and immediately thought "Oh, boy. Those two are going to be Keralis and xB level shenanigans together and I'm down for it."
That opening almost made me cry. You and Joel already brought so much to the server. It's been a delight and seeing you finally there is just pure joy. :)
This intro… I was both laughing like a maniac and crying like a maniac at the same time…. This couldn’t have gone more wholesomely. The look on impulses face… i was shaking with laughter and tears I couldnt control myself. And then…. I scrolled down into the comments to cry with other people and I saw… EVERY SINGLE HERMIT IN THE COMMENTS? My little heart isn’t big enough for all this wholesomeness, man! The beam on impulses face as he invited his best bud on… it makes skizz being on hermitcraft even BETTER…. who knew skizz could get better?
Lol the stress of keeping the news inside turned Skizz's hair more gray.
Or impulse changed the light in the room so it is more visible. 😂
More gray=More "handsome"(I was going to use a different word but thought perhaps it's not appropriate).
12:12 Honestly the prank war was my favorite part of Hermitcraft season 9 because it was hysterical to watch.
One of my favorite parts of Season 9 was the diamond pillar war.
CONGRATULATIONS SKIZZ ON FINALLY JOINING HERMITCRAFT!!!
The replay buffer is a god tier addition to OBS, I really really hope you guys convince the other hermits to start using it! For example, hearing Etho and Stress say “aw man I wasn’t recording but I got demise’d” was so sad.
Imp being nervous to ask is just so sweet.
Hearing you invite Skizz to Hermitcraft and his reaction just made me cry with joy! Literally tears running down my face, because I know how huge this is! Congrats, Skizz! We love having you on Hermitcraft, finally!! So well deserved!
Honestly, I figured it out when there was so much talk about Skizz getting a new PC and camera and talk about lighting and all that in the past couple podcasts. Then Skizz gets more and more involved with the Hermits in their side projects. Playing Plate Up with Tango, playing Phasmo and other things with Gem, Scar and Bdubs. That's how you get known by the other Hermits to be a genuine, positive, great person who will continue to fit in with everyone on the server. Congrats for real, Skizz as well as Impulse because he gets to play on the sever with his best friend finally.
Adding Skizz and Joel was ABSOLUTELY the tight descision. Skizz, you make a magnificent lawyer by the way
I've been enjoying Skizz's Tango "Don't be That Guy" segments. I'm really glad to see your heart in hermitcraft, Skizz. My draw to watching them has always been their friendships, I'm glad Imp's bestie is in there now!
I can also appreciate that it's a big step, because it calls for a larger commitment than how HC started to what they are now.
Impulse, you planning this genius plan to record Skizz's reaction was genius! I was so nervous watching that intro AND I KNOW THAT SKIZZ SAID YES lol
so glad to have him on hermitcraft
I'm so happy y'all recorded Impulse inviting Skizz to hermitcraft- it's SO FUN to see the reactions!!!
Just putting this out there, 20 bazillion people, including myself, watched Tango either dig dirt or count to ten. If the audience loves you, it doesn't matter what you do. It's the joys, fails, and laughs along the way that's important. And when Tango finished decked out, it was almost as if we helped him get there, as if we accomplished something too. 😊
I would also like to share a short story with you, @MCSkizzleman . I used to think that I hated reading for nearly 2 decades of my life. I was also bad at english in school, even though english is my first language. In the 12th grade, I discovered that I loved older english books, such as La Morte D'Arthur, The Canterbury Tales, and the like.
You aren't a bad builder, Skizz. You just haven't found the right book. 😉
I'm not an almost 40 year old whole grown ass man getting teared up over Skizz in the opening. Congrats dude
I'll admit that I am... though commenting on how old I am makes me feel it even more!
Same feeling friend.
I'm not crying you're crying! 🥹
“There are some curse words I want to say out of joy” 😂 I’m so glad Skizz joined!! I’m so excited to see his personality in the Hermitcraft realm and all of the interactions I KNOW are going to be comedic gold 🥰
11:39 I think it's because everyone is deciding to get back to the roots of minecraft instead of jumping into the grandiose structures. People are closer, people are interacting, everything is amazing now even more than it has been in previous seasons. I'm here for the ride
I've been wondering if they were ever going to attempt another season 4 again given all the talks about taking it easy on the builds and I'm here for it
it's interesting because it seems that Joe and Doc have enormous projects planned, and I have seen so little of them. small projects close by means more content, interactions, and fun. I hope that the mega things don't stop those two from being super involved.
Skizz you being a “bad” builder is a breath of fresh air. I look at these massive builds and go I will NEVER be able to do that. I am hoping to build my skills with you. I would love if you get tips from your fellow hermits you can pass them on in your videos. I want to learn right beside you🥰
I was introduced to Skizz during the Among Us streams via Tango, Grian, and Scar. At first i just figured Skizz was just "another streamer" and i didn't pay much attention to his personality. It wasnt until i decided to check out this podcast many months ago and soon realized that Skizz is an absolute gem of a human being. So much so that I've added his quote "Nothing has ever been done until the first time it has been done" to my email endings (credit going to him of course). The news of Skizz joining Season 10 literally got me so amped, now getting to experience his sense of humor and his exceptional words of wisdom to the hermits is gonna be phenomenal to watch. I'm so proud of him and can't wait to see his impact on the server, which I can already tell is gonna be massive. You truly deserve it. Congratulations Skizzleman!
When Grian first started he led storylines by being the pesky younger brother of the server. I see Skizz leading by being the thoughtful person that he is.
IMP AND SKIZZ ON HERMITCRAFT!!! THIS SEASON WILL BE SO AMAZING!!!!!
I didn't know you knew about hermicraft but, yay!
Skizz I'm also not a great builder, to make something pretty takes me several iterations. In the last server with my friends I built a giant house entirely of cobble and played it off as "The Cobble Kingdom" and just kept doing little things to it over many weeks until finally I textured the walls, terraformed the exterior, and wound up with a BEAUTIFUL structure even if all my friends were skeptical. It took me so long because of how many times I had to basically redo things, but it was such a positive learning experience. Don't be afraid to make something ugly! Just build! Then play with it until you find things you like and you'll develop your style eventually :)
I'm no builder, but I definitely wouldn't be thinking about my building, but how I can get all the great builders to do stuff
Having watched Hermitcraft for years, near its beginning. Skizz should never worry about being a great builder. Go back and watch when some of the other Hermits in early seasons first joined and what they first built. They didn’t all start off being where they are now. Watching them all grow over the years and become even more amazing has been the journey. It’ll all come with time. Just have fun, that makes the best content, when the Hermits are enjoying themselves.
even joel himself wasn't a great builder as recently as early 2020, his first major survival build was 2021 in empires s1. He decided he wanted to be a good builder in early 2020 and became one of the best builders on Empires, along with creating arguably the best build on the server among other empires members who had been building for years before him. Practice makes perfect.
I think the reason everyone knew it was going to be Skizz and Joel is because we've all seen you guys play together so much. Since membership on Hermitcraft is based on you guys being a group of friends and who you mesh with well it was easy to see who those people would be.
25:00 that just proves to me how much of an amazing person Skizz is. Being willing to pay the lost wages because he asked them to stop at a certain time. I've done construction type work for a good majority of my life, and people like that are the best to work for! They're the best clients
Yes! Skizz is the best!
Rocking totally awful is what every music teacher has always told me "if youre the best person in the room, youre in the wrong room"
Also, X is an excellent excellent leader. Askigg for people to talk is up to the top on leadership things
33:25 skizz and beef are so freaking iconic as the big salmon mobsters! Please give us more beef collabs!
The bit when Cleo said "I'm so glad you're here Skizz" REALLY stood out to me too. I've watched HC since S3 and this is the most excited I've been for a season and it's mostly cause Skizz is on!! Every time I see his name in chat in other Hermit's videos it warms my heart. Impulses' bit at the end was so sincere as well. Sizz, you're gonna grow so much, fumble here and there which inevitable, but it's all part of the journey and you'll own every moment. Everybody is excited you're on the server! Just keep being your silly but caring self and everything will keep falling into place.
Joel and Skizz just made sense!!! Between the life series and being friends with many of the hermits (and the fact that Joel was literally on Hermitcraft Season 9 for 2 separate events), they made the most sense ti be added, especially when you eliminate other contestants due to other factors. Plus, I think it was a lot of hopeful thinking and manifestation from the community, who really wanted to see you both join! ^-^
I’m so glad to see you on Hermitcraft, Skizz! I hope you have the best season
Hermitcraft Season 10 has the vibe of a sports team that won the championship last year. The core is solid - now adding support pieces for variety and longevity. Loving all the collaboration so far.
Regarding creative mode building, I think Gem was really smart to stream some of her time in creative Minecraft when she was experimenting with building styles. It doesn't have to be a 100% solo offline experience. I would totally watch Hermits in a small creative world just testing out ideas or teaching each other building tips that could be brought over to the main server. Stream would be fun for audience interaction, but it could also make a funny training montage.
Joe even streams some of his planning and editing stuff sometimes
@@Rhaifha Great shout!
11:00 I love that the Hermits came to that realization because it's the reason I watch all the videos. I've always love the times when they all were just goofing off together. The increase in VODs of all their streams has also been so fun.
For those who didn’t see Beef’s Ep Skizz works for Big Salmon so getting this much time off is a big deal
Congrats Skizz this season is already my favorite
This season of Hermitcraft seems so special to me. The vibes are great, in general--people focusing on socializing and having fun rather than instantly building megabases and endbusting and doing massive projects immediately. Watching this group of friends just having fun, what you describe as the "roots" of Hermitcraft... I think it's what we need right now. One of the reasons I loved watching TFC was because of how he just did his thing. I love watching Doc do his thing too, his thing is just being wild and breaking the game. But it's what's fun to him. Dynamics like Stress and Iskall are enjoyable to watch because it is just friends having a goof. I think that's why so many people enjoy watching Grian and Scar and Mumbo; they're the trio that got me into Hermitcraft because seeing friends having fun and interacting with each other is what's important about a server.
Skizz, you have the ability to increase that fun with anyone you're with. You have wonderful dynamics with so many people on Hermitcraft already, and you're creating new dynamics that are so enjoyable to watch already, like with the "Big Salmon" bit.
I can't wait to watch you grow as a builder. You referenced "layers," and that reminds me of a lot of the older buildings/cities. Instead of things being completely torn down and replaced like they are now, they are changed overtime. New areas built on more and more. And when you look at ruins and the remains, you can see remnants of those that came before it. It's still a part of it.
A lot of newer and younger Hermitcraft fans don't understand it's meant to be a group of friends just having fun. We can be too caught up in the extravagance of big builds and awe-inspiring projects and in-depth stories because that's what the algorithm has served to us.
You represent that Hermitcraft is coming back to its roots. And fans of you have been saying so for a bit. I remember seeing a post maybe a year or so ago talking about how Hermitcraft needs you. This love for you isn't new. And we're all so excited to see you here and can't wait to watch your journey continue.
That intro made me tear up. Nothing like seeing dreams come true!
I just want to say that I actually really like the moments where tango pops in and corrects skizz on server etiquette.
It's really a fun way to address it especially for new players coming in who might want to join servers, but don't understand these things, because a lot of servers are just quick to ban people rather than work with new players. I know I struggled with it a bit when I first started playing.
I LOVE THE OPENING CLIP SO MUCH!!! The complete surprise and tentativeness of Skizz makes my heart so happy. Proud of you!
There are builders, terraformers, redstoners and storytellers on servers. You're a storyteller Skizz! You'll do fantastic! Jimmy also was known for being a bad builder, but he has grown so much during Empires and I'm totally confident you'll grow like that too! Just watch the difference between week 1 season 10 and week 1 of season 11 in the future and you'll already see Minecraft growth! But don't forget, we love you for your social skills and storytelling and that's something you already bring to the server in abundance ❤ Good luck and have fun Skizz!❤
True about Jimmy, he really has improved a lot over the years. I'm sure Skizz will too!
The covering of the perimeter was such a fun plot point, but I never could have guessed it would have had such a big impact. This season is everything I’ve ever wanted so far. Of course I love seeing these big wonderful builds, but I missed the community that came with things like the shopping district in season 7. I’m so excited to see how this season progresses for everyone!
Seeing Skizz’s reaction is so heartwarming🥹 Now I want to see Joel’s reaction too.
Thought i was gonna cry at the invitation recording since Impy teased it this week but the last five minutes where Impulse said he felt Skizz should be the one in the creator shoes instead had me welling up. So happy for you skizz. Can't wait to see the positivity and fun you will surely bring to Hermitcraft
Why is this so good and important? It's two grown men showing emotion and love. More of this.
I love skizz's reaction to impulse just springing the question on him.
Hermits have made the right decision to focus on the comeraderie and just playing together, which is what makes the content so enjoyable.
The building is secondary, in my opinion, as a fan.
