A truly legendary character arc: from a man stricken with an obsession with glory and incessant need for the spotlight to a smart and resourceful player after having his entire game plan ripped apart by Galeem and Darkhon. He must learn to play lame and win the game.
Okay, seriously, though: Alpharad playing Steve out of respect for the cancer patient (who I hope is doing well and is recovering as quick as possible) is the heartwarming shit that keeps me watching these videos. Throughout all of the years this channel's been alive (fan since the beginning of the How To Play 101 series), every video just gives me more reason to continue being a fan and also continue to support the channel in any way I can. Even if you're the internet funnyman, I love the way that we can all watch your content, regardless of the video at hand, and it seems like we're all just listening to our best friend play the game. It gives a sense of realism and a feeling of relatability that you don't really get with a lot of content creators. I'm happy that Alpha can continue to do what he enjoys (whether it be making music, playing with friends or telling us stories as to how a homeless man stole his sandwich), and also giving his fans a feeling of comfort when they're watching the channel. I guess what I'm trying to say is: Thanks for being the person you are, Alpha, and don't stop putting smiles on other people's faces.
He also had like 20 at the end of it, though. Boss fights are meant to be hard, and it makes sense that you lose characters to them. Losing 3 isn't all that bad.
It's all about getting the video noticed. If it doesn't get a decent flow of people checking the video out, many RUclipsrs will change the title/thumbnail to be more appealing.
Here is my best spirit team which is better than it seems: Lucas with Primary: Paula (psi attack up) Support: Great autoheal This team is so good spirit type matchups don’t matter
Yes but in power rank like if you look at your spirit list, Paula is a higher power. It’s one of the highest and is extremely good with lucas. (My main) as you can tell I’ve done my research.
everyone is talking about the video, but can we bring attention to how legitimately heartwarming it is to see alpha play steve for a child with cancer? you made my day.
It's still not useless, even in 1v1 if you have a back shield you probably have other items, so things like bombs, boomerangs or assists could still be behind you
Playing Lucas is like catching a Pokémon who survives till the end of the series and dies last second, but before he does he clutches out one more finishing move my reminiscing about some last memories and friends and beats the bad guy and smiles as he dies
I really hope the guy in chat wasn't trolling about his cousin having cancer, because if so, we lost Steve to a troll. But if he wasn't trolling, then it was worth it.
WHEN THE NINE HAPPENED, AN AD IMMEDIATELY STARTED PLAYED SERISOLY THO I SAID, OUT LOUD "OH MY GOD THE NINE" milliseconds before the ad Omg You did that on purpose didn't you
And so, a legend was sang that day. Though small, Lightlocke Lucas acomplished one of the largest tasks anyone of his class could do; Killing Giga-Bowser.
Wow I just realised galeem is like gleam, because it's light. I always thought it was weird how darkon literally has dark in while galeem didn't seem to be to do with light, but no both are reflective of their role.
These intros are so good, the best anime previous episode summaries I've ever seen, step aside Dragon Ball! Yeah, Giga Bowser is still really strong, unless your name is Lucas, apparently, which shows how some characters are straight broken against certain opponents. Good job defeating Rathalos first try, that was nice! So many tense fights which is really good for the videos, but luckily this run is going so much better than the previous ones, fingers crossed!
Let's get some F's in the chat for Steve, Alex, Zombie and Enderman. Gone, and we couldn't see anything big with them. They will be remembered, and they will be avenged. F
Part 2 of Day 144 of asking Alpharad to notice; Alpha, I made a multiplayer only level. You and Jo must work together to beat it. I took your request from several videos ago on Alpharad Deluxe. It's not a whole world, but it's a fun level. The Course ID is: PL6-QG2-WHG. The name is: Wrong Way Jo :). I really hope you & Jo get to play it. I also hope you two enjoy. It took a couple of days to make it! Edit; This is like the 144th time I've posted this, I'll stop until you guys make a vid about it or respond in some manner. Anybody else is welcome to try this with their friends.
So I've been rewatching the CPUCS, and I realized how much I miss it, and how much fun it would be to bring it back now that we have Byleth, Min Min, and especially now that we have Minecraft Steve
