John Helldiver VS Cyber Stan
peak
Cyber Stanley has no chance
STAN IS NO MATCH FOR! DEMOCRACY!
Lmfao peak
Cybernetic Stanley stands no chance
All HELLDIVERS TO HELLPODS 🗣️🗣️🗣️
Reminder, Helldivers to hellpods.
Repeat, Helldivers to hellpods.
LET'S DO THIS
Don’t forget the hug before you dive!!!
"You heard the music. Time to dance."
@ajaxdonqueso9597True homies always hug before dive!
I’ll never get over the subtle team killing in these trailers.
I'd just wish there were more awesome clips, given that the community constantly comes up with some real Master Chief type stuff
It’s not subtle at all.Its right there plain as day.Subtle is a dumb ass word
@Govt-1911-A1you need some milk
@ConReese he needs some milk
It was better when it actually WAS subtle
I saw that LOTR reference, diving into the sewer grate.
"BRING THAT HELLDIVER DOWN" - Cyber Stan, shortly before being democratically warcrimed to death
"helmets deep"
LOTR inspired warbond when, i want a two handed sword secondary weapon
I was about to comment this!
@Asmo-die we need stronghold defense missions like Helms deep with a team of up to 8 or 10 divers against an army of bots pleeeeease!!!
@madsteve92 So it begins...
Friendly fire incidents in all the trailers since Helldivers 1... and it never gets old
Yup
If I recall, the Redacted, and the ODST warbonds didn't have friendly fire
The more things change, the more things never will!
They know how we play
@Denboozewell [REDACTED] are professionals and professionals have standards
0:55
Bro casually gave his teammate some grenade massages lol
beanbag rounds confirmed
Friendly back blowout
love how they're getting the full mileage out of the ODST crossover and throwing a helljumper in with the helldivers
Whats it referencing?
@murasakirenea9290Star Trek
@murasakirenea9290Halo 3: ODST
@murasakirenea929000:45
@ConWWW Star Trek crossover when?? The dagger is basically a phaser already.
SO BEGINS THE EPIC CLASH OF JOHN HELLDIVER VS. CYBER STAN
Begun
The cyborg war has
John Helldiver vs. Joel
ROUNDHOUSE KICK!
The clankers way won the battle but they haven’t won the war
We’ll come back stronger like never before. It’s not over my brothers, it just begun
1:00 ACTUAL Helm's Deep moment
Wait, are we the bad guys? Are we bearing the white hand of Superearth?
White, yellow, blue flying on all the worlds! LO
@minko595 nah, we are the rohirrim arriving with Gandalf the White at the first light of dawn to bring liberation to cyberstan.
"Ride for wrath, Ride for ruin, AND A RED DAWN"
@minko595 Yeah, pretty much.
Helldivers theme with guitar? Hell yeah.
Gives halo 2 vibes
Check out A Cup of Liber-tea by RichaadEB if you want a sick full version. They, together with Jonathan Young, make my favorite Helldivers metal music that I sometimes listen to in place of the HD2 soundtrack while playing because it’s so damn epic
@BmeBenji aways wanted to try that but never did. now seems like the perfect time, ministry of metal approved
@BmeBenjiIt sounds like it but WAS that the version used in this trailer?
@BmeBenjiI think it’s an octave or two too high lol, but it’s still rlly good!!
Despite us failing the objective. The cyborg are now a permanent addition to the warfront. so this update was more than just a major order. :)
0:52 Guy just casually aura farming in the middle of the battlefield
"Yes picolo, we see the fit
Yes Cyber Stan, we see the upgrade 🥀
"Hurry up and kill that hoe Jinichi"
"Who the fuck are you"
That's just Cyber Stan. You know he survived that silo with a perfectly timed warp.
0:25 Slipspace rupture detected. Slipspace rupture detected. Slipspace rupture detected.
Hahaha. But really though.
Nice to be on the other side of that for once.
Must be the whole damn Helldiver fleet!
IM LOOKING AT FIGHTER JETS ALL OVER i-95 HOW THE HELL DID THEY GET THROUGH??
ALLIED SUPER DESTROYER SIGNAL DETECTED.

0:46, I know it's been months but I still get so giddy seeing Halo Odsts in helldivers, especially the trailers
0:47 that poor ODST diver joining a wrong mission.
Nah.
He is exactly where he wants to be. For we are Helljumpers. We know how to go loud when Democracy requires it of us.
And we are not missing this fight.
At least that diver will go out what their good at... Their best.
Let’s dive into hell feet first helljumper 🫡
He knew what he signed up for. Why do you think we're called Hell Jumpers?
We know the music, time to dance...
At least out of all four of that squad, the ODST lived
loved the lord of the rings reference at 1:00
I think I missed it?
which one?
The Uruk-hai jumping inside Hellm’s deep drain wall. Loved it.
the sewerage torch guy?
Same! Cyborglas, bring him down!!!
The Vox Machines have vents underneath it and on the back to deal big damage which also opens a slot to put grenades into, they go down surprisingly easy.
As long as there's only like 1 or 2 of them. Which isn't typically the case, as the game loves to just drop 5-7 at a time.
1:00 THE HELM'S DEEP URUK-HAI SCENE FROM LOTR
LOL
Omg so true!
So fkin epic!!!
LEGOLAS TAKE HIM DOWNNNNN
Anyone got a clip?
Divers!
*Make them regret the Creek.*
HOORAH
HORAAA
HOORAH
HOORAAAH
HOAAAHH
Coming here after we lost Cyberstan i say that we could’ve won but i we kept getting our jaws kicked in and blow to dirt.but overall fun experience
We will be back...... someday
TO YOUR HELLPODS BOYS! WE’RE DISMANTLING THESE CLANKERS ONCE AND FOR ALL
I like how each helldiver in this video are from different warbonds and are seen only using weapons from these warbond. This is cool to me because it further implies each warbond is canonical a special helldivers unit.
Seriously, you're only realizing this now? Obviously, each Warbond is a specialized branch of the Helldivers.
Not nessecerly their weapons, at 0:42 you can see a Truth Enforcer with the Adjudicator.
@SirChambers-s1call we need is an Galaxy's Edge and a Clone Commando war bound then we're set
@SirChambers-s1c do you know what the word further means? dude is just saying he appreciates the attention to detail in the trailers christ alive
@lime_crisis literally it says "This is cool to me because it further implies each warbond is canonical a special helldivers unit." don't look for the cat's fifth leg
Yet again the game master's "nuh uh you lost" prevails again
Brother did we lose when the Illuminates invade Super Earth, did we fail the Oshaune campaign
who cares
0:25 LITERAL GOOSEBUMPS!😭
We're going Halo 2 on these clankers
The might of Democracy gives me goosebumps too 😌
@MrMoustaffaN00b Combo coming up!
the precious cyber stan is not safe . From the might of Democracy
@MrMoustaffa More like the Covenant fleet showing up to Reach
Sir, a second hellpod just hit the Cyber Tower! 1:11
No 💀 omg Thats funny but no😭💀
I hate that I actually laughed at that. So wrong but so funny. 👌
Comrade *
TURN ON THE TV THEY HIT THE CYBERGON!
01000100 01100101 01100001 01110010 00100000 01100011 01101100 01100001 01101110 01101011 01100101 01110010 00100000 01000111 01101111 01100100 00101110 00101110 00101110
Turns out they WERE safe from the Might of Democracy
Its genuinely amazing that AH actually let the players lose a plot relevant MO for once, it's unironically more exciting than everything unfolding as planned. Now this trailer doesn't come off as gloating but as morbid foreshadowing
@ExValeFor You say exciting, I say disappointing
@valrend7374 oh please, every MO that mattered even the slightest bit had been served to the players on a silver platter. There has been no tension if you had actually paid attention. This is the first time AH didn't decide to just give the players a victory just 'cuz (after Meridia, Oshaune, SE and the sham that was the DSS)
Now there's a semblance of teeth to when they put forward a MO that's supposed to matter
How many times do we have to teach you this lesson, old man?
One more time!
SantaClaus2026NewYear awesome
Gluttons for punishment 😎 Let’s give them what they asked for
Heyy your videos are awesome!!
Twice. Probably.
0:52 Man just casually strikes the pose of Isaac clarke from dead space 1
Even the helmet looks identical!
Bro stole issac’s drip and aura
...could it be that, that was the point perhaps??? We'll never know i guess
That one Cyborg looked like he was processing the best way of dismantling the helldiver
The fight is done, we lost the battle, but we live to fight another day.
it's amazing that 2 years later im still playing this game so much
I feel guilty. I only come back for the final battles 💔
@GFlight.916 same😅
Lvl.126 with about 440+ hours & a 9-5 job lol
@GFlight.916das why u should probably uninstall and stay wherever it is you’re at already.🙂↕️🙂↕️
@mike_g5924bro stop gatekeeping it’s very undemocratic of you and we need all forces to cyberstan
Moving homes is on Hold, Cyberstan must fall!
It's funny how this is literally just a reversed version of the Super Earth invasion. There's the limited reinforcements, there's the space battles, there's megacities, even the visuals are similar in trailers and such.
1:00 Helm’s Deep reference goes hard
Glad to have you with us in this fight, sir.
“I call it a Portable Hellbomb, rhymes with Grug.”
Bro take you bum ahh and give us the next part already.
The Mass Effect 3 fleet arrival, the Lord of the rings, nice references to be seen in a trailer
BRUH I KNEW I SAW THAT BEFORE, I thought i was going crazy
Dead Space with the one cyborg turning his head around too.
I really want Star Wars collaboration in this game still.
how i missed that scene
The addition of the guitar to the theme song is giving major Halo vibes and I’m loving it!
If You get hurt, hurt 'em back. You get killed... walk it off."
“I understood that reference”
Elite ball knowledge
this guy knows ball
**loads dual glocks* *
(dual wield option when Arrowhead? :P)
0:26 I already love it because of this animation of the Fleet arriving
"Once more into the fray, into the last good fight I'll ever know" ~ Malevelon Creek Veteran
Time to go in boys,FEET FIRST INTO HELL!!
ODST ARE WITH US 0:44
105th HELLJUMPERS DIVISION CALLING IN!!
The ODST’s and the Redacted Regiment will be conducting and handling all Cyberstan Commando Operations during the invasion.
YES BROTHER, SHOULDER TO SHOULDER WE SHALL ANNIHILATE THE METAL HEART OF TYRANNY
WE ARE GREEN AND VERY, VERY MEAN!
FEET FIRST INTO HELL, DIVERS!
OORAH!
The Automatons/Bots are finally getting the focus & recognition they deserve since the Bugs especially & Aliens get all the attention.
FOR THE REPUBLIC! I mean FOR SUPER EARTH!
"To the forward command center take me"
One bolt at a time they will perish

YES! MORE BUTTER ON MY LOBSTER! MORE JUICEY FAT ON MY STEAK! MORE BOUNTY IN MY HARVEST!
0:51 The cyborgs know Judo I repeat, the cyborgs know Judo.
Ahhhhh yes, I see that you know your judo well.
The traitorous machines rebranded it to cog-fu.
@MugiwaraSenchoa succulent Chinese meal
@MugiwaraSenchoyou beat me to it 😂😂😂
The Lord of the Rings reference at 1:01 😂
So it Begins
Are we.... the orc? Invading their home?
@adriantambunan6527careful there, that line of thinking sounds undemocratic. You should report to your democracy officer for possible thought crimes
@adriantambunan6527I don't know about their home as they stolen Cyberstan from us.
we failed.....
They kina look like the Strogg 0:14
Helldiver strogification incoming???
@CaptainPie176 Why do you think they were dragging off those corpses?
Holy shit. They really do!
We invade Stroggose AGAIN
I'm glad I'm not the only one. Do you think we'll fight The Makron?
We’re coming for you, Cyber Stan.
I love how they showed all the different types of armor and stratagems
The one helldiver on cyber Stan holding the line
John Helldiver softening them up for us 🔥
Thats John, what a fucking hero
@Chicken-j9k7ythe legends say he is only using the flag, no bullets needed
MOVE IT EVERYONE! ASSES IN HELLPODS NOW!
IF YOURE DIVING CYBERSTAN, FOLLOW THE MAJORITY, THE HIGHER CONCENTRATION WE ARE, THE MORE LIBERTY WE WILL PROVIDE.
The background art always looks so badass, I need all the variations.
1:01 BRING HIM DOWN, LEGOLAS!!!!
Dago han! Dago han, Legolas! Dago han!
“It still only counts as one!” 😆
It's the little things of watching people getting killed by friendly fire and being sky beamed in order to take out basic units
TIME TO KILL THE CYBORGS!
STANDBY FOR CYBERFALL!!!
Electric guitar cover of the helldivers theme. Moral: restored
*HOW MANY TIMES DO I HAVE TO KEEP SHITTING MY PANTS!!!! I'M RUNNING OUT OF THEM !!!!!*
You're running out of poop or pants?
Also
WHY ARE YOU RUNNING?!
@LonelyStardefender *YES*
This is why we got the brown armor! 😁
Just clean your pants!
Just do laundry man😂
FOR THE CREEK!
I love this old school video game energy, definitely hypes me up
"Welcome to New Stroggos. You're compliance is manditory..."
I'll give the cyborgs one single thing.
That roundhouse kick 0:51
Nah they give it to you lmao
I got punch by one but they where punching the wall... SO I PUNCH BACK HARDER
that was a spinning back hook kick, not a round house kick
The jumping knee as well.
@AznPr1desoh, I just saw a spinny kick and my first thought was Peter Griffin's "Road House."
“To conceal the source of money as by channeling it through an intermediary.”
What am I going to do with 20 subscriptions to Vibe?
@silkyjoe7 I don’t know if the app screwed up or I did, but this comment was meant for a different video. Perfect reply. 😂
It’s showtime gentlemen
ALL HELLDIVERS TO BATTLE STATION
Its like an avengers team up with all the different warbonds.
0:51 Roadhouse!
LETS GOOOOOO!!! FOR DEMOCRACY! FOR SUPER EARTH!! LFG HELLDIVERS!!!
This aged well.
Ahhh...
... a rich target environment!
Remember the creek..
Yeah For Malevelon!
Bob Dylan? I didn’t know you supported Super Earth.
Remember the reach
It's time to avenge the Creek.
Superfui Torrenti, Mortuorum memini, Mors Cyberstaniae
0:24 "Prepare for the single biggest FTL event in galactic history" was actual fire to read in the dispatch
Cyber Stan: "We meet again... Johnathan.."
John Helldiver: "Stanford...."
CS: "Your blood will fuel my children's bio components!"
JH: "NOT BEFORE I USE YOUR OIL TO BURN CYBERSTAN TO THE GROUND!"
CS: "JOOOOOOHAAAN!!"
JH: "STAAAAAAAN!!!"
*Slow-mo Yakuza Boss Intro* "Stanford, Patriarch of the Cyborg race"
Spongebob :D

Instead of us being the ones receiving the warning, it’s them. Oh how the tables have turned.
Its the whole godamn covenant fleet!
"Open the window Stan"
@unitalavanta Humanity is no longer on the defense. WE.....are the giants now!
GOD that metal cover of the main theme is so good
Remember Malevelon Creek! Finally we get our Revenge!
Yeah about that lol
@ExValeFori spilled alot of oil! Also i didnt struggle nearly as much as i did in on the Creek.
WHERE ARE THE MISSIONS ARROWHEAD????
every single one of these is always such a fucking banger. every single time.
HELLDIVERS KIA SENDING REPLACEMENT🗣🗣🗣
that was the best guitar work ive ever heard in my life holy fucking shit
I do appreciate that you can see many Warbonds throughout this trailer, especially at parts 0:45 & 1:03 of HD teams
Also servants of freedom dove into a building with a hellbomb
SES PRINCESS OF DEMOCRACY standing by!To Cyberstan!!!
SES Fist of Family Values, breaking out the belt and a handle of jack
SES ARBITER OF HONOUR in orbit of Ctberstan!
SES Emperors of mankind on station and ready to drop into cyberstan!
SES Founding Father of Super Earth ready to lock and load!
I'd like to take a moment to appreciate how hype the music in this video is. The beautiful sounds of democracy and freedom to annihilate tyranny to
1:01 Lord of the Rings.....Helms Deep
WE ARE THE BAD GUYS
@SenriamTraitor detected
Durbgu Nazg-shu, Durbgu Dash-shu!
I get that reference
I love they are showing off all the war bond armors it makes it feel like its all hands on deck for this battle
creek vet here
Citizens, Helldivers and SEAF
The air is heavy with smoke and oil and every second feels like it’s slipping through our grasp. There may not be another regroup. There may not be another push. The one we have been hoping for since the very beginning.
So, every inch matters.
Not because it’s convenient. Not because it’s symbolic.
But because if we give even one inch, there may be nothing left to give later.
They’re counting on us to falter. To decide it’s too costly, too hopeless, too late. They’re waiting for that one moment where we hesitate-where we decide one street, one trench, one ruined piece of ground isn’t worth it.
And that moment cannot come.
If this is the end, make it an end they choke on. We will take every inch and leave them nothing. We hold ground not for comfort but for meaning. For proof that when planets were falling, we didn’t fold.
Fight for everyone behind you.
Fight for your comrades beside you.
Fight for the everything you may never walk away from.
Because if these are our final moments, let them be moments where we stood our ground and refused to vanish quietly. Let history say that when everything was closing in, we made every inch cost everything.
This is where we stand.
This is where we fight.
This is where we decide who we are.
We march for victory!
Take every inch.
And don’t let go.
FOR SUPER EATH!
For democracy! For Liber-tea! For SUPER EARTH! HELLDIVERS TO HELLPODS!
Corny
@HussainDjembe I think you need to talk to your local democracy officer
@NiceGuy002 That isn’t very nice, guy.
@HussainDjembetraitor
Let the dismantling commence!

@0:50 roundhouse kick was clean though
That is a spinning hook kick.
That was a spinning hook kick, but yes, the kick was clean!
0:53 Isaac Clarke from Deadspace pose
Honestly it’s the illuminates chance to do big damage while we’re distracted with the cyborgs and automatons they could make make some big brain plays
To quote my great grandfather "fuck em"
Loved the Helms Deep reference!!!!!!!
This is pure violence
0:57 starship troopers nuke I love it
TIME TO BRING DOWN THE TOASTERS!
