Poseidon throws giant storms and huge earthquakes, of course he's a distance fighter. He's also super buff and knows how to use his trident at close range, but there's no way anyone can get in close range with him
I mean, this creates even more of a distance between man and gods. Think about it: he's a ranged attacker, so normally he would attack from afar...but only for people he consider worthy enemies. Ody and crews definitely aren't someones who can fight a god even in a weakened state, imagine one in his domain. Poseidon beat the fucking hell out of Ody with his own hand because he's not a treath, he's just some random mortal hero who dared too much and didn't think it through. This add an incredible level of complexity and pure power. And I mean, the phrase "the pack of wolves is swimming with the shark" said basically the same think: they're dangerous for mortals, but for a god? They're nothing
@@hollowbook3088 It only got reversed in 600 Strike BECAUSE he hadn't expected Odysseus to close the distance as he had, nor USE HIS FUCKING STORM to effectively get rid of his advantages, the Gods CAN be beaten by Mortals but not easily.
Hermes purposely making her mad just to do a dance battle: Hermes winning her favour by manually throwing glitter and pocket confetti every time she is named:
Imagine being a teacher and you’re asking your students about hera and one of them starts talking about how she has a disco power where she can force people into dance battles and if they lose their stats decrease lmao
Wait, here’s an animatic idea Hermes uses his illusion power and creates backup dancers 😂 (This is also my head cannon of why other voices are heard in “wouldn’t you like”)
Ive seen an animatic that shows some of his words as images anc various memes flash on screen. With this knowledge ill be accepting that animatic as canon.
@@Tioko Yeah there is! The artist that did the mortal combat style animation is the one that is currently trying to create the game, as far as I'm aware, but it's mostly just a concept right now. I think it's pretty cool.
"Poseidon's strength is long'range combat. Someone like Hermes could get the jump on him." Someone like... his great-grandson with a windbag jetpack, mayhaps? Jorge, you sneaky genius.
@@boblecatHelios is actually older than Apollo and is the personification of the sun. He was the original sun god in Greek mythology, but was later merged/replaced with Apollo (which is why most people think Apollo is the (only) sun god). Helios was also a titan, meaning he was from the generation before the gods. If we’re talking about familial relations, Helios is technically Zeus’ cousin, making him Apollo’s first cousin once removed. Hope this little bit of info helps!
@@sonofcronos7831 Now that I think about it, you’re right. I don’t recall Apollo ever being known to drive the sun chariot in the myths. It’s only in modern retellings where he’s sometimes noted in driving the sun chariot (I’m thinking of Percy Jackson in particular) and usually it’s just that he has powers over the sun, or is sun powers adjacent.
Don't forget then in the mythology Apollo can not only heal, but also make people sick, like he did in Illiad. So it can be his debuff attack. And Dyonissus can make people mad and force them to attack their own allies.
And wasn't it Hera who induces the madness that overtook Heracles, when he perma-logged of his wife and infant? That was why he had 12 trials to atone, ya?
Poseidon's close-range land move is shape-shifting into a horse and kicking you. That can actually do a lot of damage. 🐎 Plus the horse form makes him a lot faster than his opponents, assuming they aren't cavalry. Or centaurs, which are also sorta cavalry. Then he can run out of range, and go back to long-distance fighting. 🐎
Why does this remind me of Tyson from Percy Jackson and his obsession with ponies. I think I understand that now. Tyson is a son of Poseidon, so he loves horses. Huh.
Athena: the full concentrated power of the sun??? In this part of Olympus?? In this time of day??? Apollo: ha yep Athena: can.. we see it in Epic? Apollo: ...no
I love how Jay just talks about the gods as if they’re Pokemon or if they were characters in a fighting game Also every time he sings their names is so funny to me idk why
"APOLLO" The way you said it. And "Why is my hair doing that?" *continue s talking* "WHY IS IT DOING THAT?!" *continues talking* i died in both of those parts
Who needs an animated or broadway version of Epic. This is clearly going to be turned into an 8-bit styled video game. (Like Into the Pit kinda graphics)
Ooh, yay, Jay info-dumping on EPIC lore! It’s so fun to watch! 🤩 It would also be really cool if Apollo could do combo attack, tag-team type moves with Artemis. Like, I’m picturing some solar eclipse motifs, maybe have a thing where they each fire an arrow and it fuses into one cooler arrow, something like that!
Which is why it surprised me that he didn't mention Hades (we don't see him but we go through his realm) but did mention Dionysus (who we never see or hear about at all)
I LOVE the idea of Hermes throwing sparkles at people XD I love Hermes, also, just Hermes being the Flash. Also the Gods being pokemon, Oh no, your Hermes is paralized!
@@NightinLark Apollo is the god of medicine, not Hermes. You are confusing him with Asclepius, also a god of medicine, son of Apollo. Because Asclepius and Hermes had similar wands that ended up being confused with time.
So, no spoilers, but i just saw the vengeance saga. The foreshadowing of what a specific gods' weakness might be and a specific fight earlier in the saga is INSANE.
I love how video-game inspired these powers are! There’s a powers, but then a drawback for each. Like if I were to choose these characters in an actual game, these would be thing I’d have to consider! I absolutely love this! And love how much thought you’ve put into all of this!
1:23 in the stage production I want Hermes flying all over the stage in roller skates, throwing glitter at the characters/audience. If that doesn’t happen I’m not buying tickets

Apollo: Uncle Helios this battle depends on you! [throwing Helios through a trajectory] Helios: NOOOOAPOLLOWE'VETALKEDTHROUGHTHISI'MNOTYOURPOKEMON-------
Ares: I actually have *two* Quick-Thoughts and Athena only has one. Athena: Name them. Ares: Umm... Quick-Thought but it makes you Scared and Quick-Thought but it makes you mad?
What I like about how Ares and Athena's quick thought differ is that Ares seems to act as either a buff or a debuff depending on who he uses it on. While Athena's tends to be honed to the point where she can make it fast enough to achieve lightspeed mental processing speed.
I'd like to think Hermes and Apollo have their own version. As God of sped and cunning, Hermes would be similar to Athena, Apollo as god of prophecy and reason might allow the person to play out different scenarios before taking action.
Jay describing dark quick thought made me imagine Ares as a Barbarian who goes "I would like to rage" or rather he makes others go "I would like to rage".
I am home alone with my sister next week, and you can bet I'm introducing her to Epic. I already keep nerding out about the danger motif and etc, so this should be fun
If you think about it the wind in ‘keep your friends close’ is actually giving advice to Odysseus because she says,” keep your friends close and your enemies closer” because Poseidon is a long range fighter and the only way Odysseus could even get close to defeating Poseidon is to be close😱😱😱and I just thought that it was cool!!!
3:54 GUYS THE BACKGROUND GETS A BLUE TINT WHEN HE TALKS ABOUT APOLLO HEALING OTHER GODS. Calling it now Apollo heals Athena after God Games, it's the same tint that was used in the live stream briefly when Telemachus accidently called out to her in Legendary and Mr. Jalapeno snuck her instrumental into the song
I always imagine the back up vocals in "Wouldn't You Like" being duplicates of Hermes that are just dancing, I'm so happy that you kinda confirmed that 😁
Hephaestus’s ability reminds me of the armor and weaponry he made for Achilles! In the EPIC universe, that must have been a sight to see. My guy literally wielded the power of the gods
Regarding Ares and Athena, I kinda imagined that in every moment or "frame" you can either think or act. People choose their own balance of thinking versus acting. Athena's quick-thought makes someone able to think infinitely between two actions, while Ares powers make people able to act infinitely between two thoughts. While Athena kinda freezes time for peaceful thinking, Ares sends you into a frenzy where you are stronger and faster but driven by the single thought you had before going into this "anti quick-thought", kinda like an overpowered bull. When they use their powers together, Athena adds thinking frames to the user, and Ares adds acting frames to the user, so the amount each adds determines wether it will be a quick-thought, an anti quick-thought or just normal speed time. The cool thing is that if each of them cooperated and timed their usages of their powers, they could basically make someone have infinite time to think of the perfect plan (using Athena's powers) and than giving him infinite time to execute it (using Ares powers) so they could do so much if they just got along XD
It makes a lot more sense.And also I love your music.I literally have it on my playlist and I play It on every day. Christmas And? I hope you have a wonderful day😊
The hair fix at the end!!❤❤❤❤ thank you for these insights. After listening to the break down on Posiden I was able to hear the blood spatter after the cyclops uses his club. Its brutal, visceral, and perfect.

Hephaestus’s ability reminds me of the armor and weaponry he made for Achilles! In the EPIC universe, that must have been a sight to see. My guy literally wielded the power of the gods
Regarding Ares and Athena, I kinda imagined that in every moment or "frame" you can either think or act. People choose their own balance of thinking versus acting. Athena's quick-thought makes someone able to think infinitely between two actions, while Ares powers make people able to act infinitely between two thoughts. While Athena kinda freezes time for peaceful thinking, Ares sends you into a frenzy where you are stronger and faster but driven by the single thought you had before going into this "anti quick-thought", kinda like an overpowered bull.
When they use their powers together, Athena adds thinking frames to the user, and Ares adds acting frames to the user, so the amount each adds determines wether it will be a quick-thought, an anti quick-thought or just normal speed time.
The cool thing is that if each of them cooperated and timed their usages of their powers, they could basically make someone have infinite time to think of the perfect plan (using Athena's powers) and than giving him infinite time to execute it (using Ares powers) so they could do so much if they just got along XD
It makes a lot more sense.And also I love your music.I literally have it on my playlist and I play It on every day.
Christmas And?
I hope you have a wonderful day😊
Apollo "Here comes the sun du du du du" when fighting his opponent.
I love how nearly everyone agrees that "dropping the sun" is just Apollo grabbing Helios and throw him at the enemy
Oh my gawd Apollo is robin from star rail!!!!! 4:11
Epic: the fighting game. Imagine you fight with your polites against the cyclops. Please Jorge, I need this game
at last, life is amazing and i will now greet it with open arms!
The hair fix at the end!!❤❤❤❤ thank you for these insights. After listening to the break down on Posiden I was able to hear the blood spatter after the cyclops uses his club. Its brutal, visceral, and perfect.
This is so creative! Love the work man.
Glad to know that Jorge is not only a Greek mythology nerd and a theater nerd, but ALSO a superhero nerd
I propose we crown him as our King
to think the pose bit was foreshadowing to vengeance saga lmaooo
When you discuss the thought process behind all the songs and themes it's clear how the 'musical that feels like a video game' actually takes shape and I love it
“..Oh, what is my hair doing? …So yeah- Just the first ones that come to min- *Why is it doing that?!* …Stop it.” Is so REAL- 😭
Helios: Pull the lever Apollo
*Apollo fully picks up Helios and YEETS him at Ares*
Helios: WRONG LEVERRRRrrrrr
