The only thing that could have made it better is if molly got a nat 20 I mean he got a 19 which is pretty good but it would be even more funny if he had
He rolled 4 times, first one was an instant 1 Second was a 1 on the second throw Third was another instant 1 About a 1 in 4000. Still just as beautiful.
I like how their original plan was to hold fjord up so he could throw easier, then they abandoned that to just throw fjord without even telling him about the new plan
At 0:54 I see the grid and I KNOW it's just for perspective purpose and not necessarily to scale, but every fiber of my being is saying "That's four squares, that's 20 feet, that's too far." CURSE YOU, FIVE FOOT SQUARE! I AM TAINTED BY TACTICAL COMBAT RULES!
God Fjord is I think my favorite M9 character because in combat he pulls off wicked moves like (SPOILERS) charming the Laughing Hand, but out of combat he can't seem to do anything right. He's like a deus ex machina.
Crouching Moron Hidden Badass is the name of a trope that describes a character that is generally depicted as a fool or useless but has moments of immensely impressive displays of prowess.
That is kinda Scanlan's whole shtick in Campaign 1. He depicts himself as comic relief you are usually laughing at but actually has so many insanely badass and plot saving moments.
Really hope we get a second part now with Mollymauk, Jester, and Yasha cause that would be the greatest. This was really good, the timing was super well done and your art style is super sweet and simple :D
Thank god Travis got triple nat 1s during this and not during something crucial. I don't want to think about what would've happened if the triple 1s was during episode 40 or 69.
YO HOLD UP IS THAT TAAKO, MAGNUS, AND MERLE IN THE LAST SHOT (This was amazing, by the way. I love how you draw Yasha and the world space looks simply amazing)
Ooohhhhh I always missed the context because I usually have to do some light work when I watch I always thought they were helping some dude fill a fact with sandbags Or was that also a thing (where fjord had 3 Nat1 in row)
I think I did too, but then in retrospect how would a kid ever have done it at all? They kind of have to be smaller bags, especially since the basket is a foot across. Ah, the imagination. What a wild ride it can be.
@@JoshTheValiant Right, but remember they did hold the kid up at a much closer distance (probably like 4 or 5 feet away), and I don't think the bags were heavy either since it wasn't a strength check that was used for tossing them. Plus, the "heave" description Matt used for Fjord's second throw, which he pantomimed with using two hands lifting something from the bottom that seemed to have decent width, I think further implies the larger grain-sack idea. That's all just things that I think kinda codify that picture in my head though -- none of this is to argue for a "right" interpretation.

This is the EXACT moment Fjord stopped being the “cool and charismatic leader” to the the smol half orc with bruised ego...
This and Avantika.
Bruised face to don't forget the bruised face
The wonderful thing is that he can be both at the same time :)
"For dignity's sake."
If only he knew.
*dramatic irony intensifies*
i dont get it, pls help, I'm all caught up on the show
@@maxttozer5037 In that he walks away from this encounter with absolutely no dignity whatsoever.
@@maxttozer5037 he would have still have had his dignity if he never threw it in the first place.
I
And then Molly did it on his first try XDDD
The only thing that could have made it better is if molly got a nat 20 I mean he got a 19 which is pretty good but it would be even more funny if he had
The triple Nat 1. A thing of horrific beauty.
I'm glad it happened during a break scene, not a fight or something
If this had been Spells, Swords & Stealth... Fjord would be dead
a 1 in 8000 chance of happening
@@lars7747 He did have disadvantage on all 3 throws, so more like 1 in 1080, but still.
He rolled 4 times,
first one was an instant 1
Second was a 1 on the second throw
Third was another instant 1
About a 1 in 4000. Still just as beautiful.
I will forever remember this purely because of Mollymauk, just ever so happily, "I won a strawberry!" while Fjord is just...stewing
"ow, my pride" could basically be his catchphrase
For context: Travis rolled 3 Nat One's at the same time, hence Fjord fraking up so much
I like how their original plan was to hold fjord up so he could throw easier, then they abandoned that to just throw fjord without even telling him about the new plan
Oh, I was always imagining them as very large bags of sand, like how flour sacks from flour sack animations look .
Me too!!!
A child needs to lob them it's a child's game
@@blake7810 They'd probably have different sizes for different ages and races.
Children wouldn't be able to throw that.
"2 shit throws in a row, can't get any worse."
Little did Fjord know it could get much worse
Echoing what Travis said as Grog during the Vox Machina campaign, "Why would you even tempt that $#!7 ?" *laughs*
Finally someone brought Fjord's greatest moment to life!
Amazing work, please do keep at it!
Thank you!!
2:47 I see someone is a TAZ fan as well
Yes I noticed them as well!!
I saw them!😂
I was lookin for this comment!
Ha, great catch! Thanks for pointing it out!
It took me a moment. What a great cameo.
The best part of the scene was left out when Molly come up and get it first try
At 0:54 I see the grid and I KNOW it's just for perspective purpose and not necessarily to scale, but every fiber of my being is saying "That's four squares, that's 20 feet, that's too far."
CURSE YOU, FIVE FOOT SQUARE! I AM TAINTED BY TACTICAL COMBAT RULES!
Man, I remember when fjord had dignity, gooooood times
This is amazing btw👍
Dignity is overrated 😁
Oh really?
When was that? XD
Joshua O'Kelley I’m sure he had it at some point... most likely before he met the rest of the mighty nein

I remember watching this scene and mixing up "trebuchet" with "guillotine" and being like "....I dont think thats how trebuchets work"
To be honest, it would have made the French Revolution hilarious...
Really hope we get a second part now with Mollymauk, Jester, and Yasha cause that would be the greatest. This was really good, the timing was super well done and your art style is super sweet and simple :D
Ahhhh, I wish you included the part where Molly casually got it in.
Ohh it's Magnus, Taako, and Merle at 2:49 ! So happy to see them :D
2:52 Taako, Magnus and Merle on their vacation from saving the fucking world
Three natural ones. Three.
Thank god Travis got triple nat 1s during this and not during something crucial. I don't want to think about what would've happened if the triple 1s was during episode 40 or 69.
I love the decision to leave out the dice rolls. Works especially well in this one
2:52 is- is that Taako, Magnus and Merle??
i was DEARLY hoping someone animated this moment and im so glad you did!!! this is drawn so well!
Thank you!!
LOL I had forgotten about this event! I kind of wish they'd have a day like this again LOL
I love the subtle adventure zone characters in the back
How was this moment NOTT animated by anyone till now.
Because it relies heavily on meta (the fact that he rolled three 1s in a row).
@@Nionivek And...
@@Eddiember It is difficult to reflect that in an animation. How many animations rely almost ENTIRELY on the meta aspect of a scene?
Molly, a name I haven't heard in a loooong time....
;-;
This was lovely work. :D
Love the simplisty of the style, nothing get too cluttered.
I spy with my little eye... an Adventure Zone party~
Thats the best place to ever have 3 nat ones to be honest
:52 "Fer dignity's sake."
Famous last words
pretty sure the sandbags would be bigger than that. they should be like sack sized.
It’s a child’s game
While I do wish the audio announcing the nat 1's were included, this was amazing!
Please keep up the great work!
The legendary moment of 3 bat 1 in a row
Can't wait to see this moment in the animation :D
"For dignities sake."
ow m'pride
Oh shit you uploaded this right as I passed this episode, I love it.
Trebuchet hurling 300 critical failures up to 90 metres.
YO HOLD UP IS THAT TAAKO, MAGNUS, AND MERLE IN THE LAST SHOT
(This was amazing, by the way. I love how you draw Yasha and the world space looks simply amazing)
Poor, poor Fjord...
Fjord looks wonderfully confident at the start 🤣
"I got this"
I love this
i love that the TAZ crew is there watching
I did the math on the possibility of rolling three ones in a row. Lets just say it was VERY slim.
Less slim since he was rolling at disadvantage, but still pretty amazing when the dice gods decide to be hilarious.
The mother of the child: AH! KARMA!
It was so dificult for me to understand this scene and well this is amazing!! allos Yasha just like ok byeee Molly you are next!!!!
Oh my gosh it's been so long, I forgot about this bit! Lol poor Fjord xD
FINALLY
Adventure zone witnessed Fjord's faceplant?
having no idea what this scene is, based on the thumbnail, I though he was being catapulted(trebuchet'd?) into a guillotine.
Looks, it's those guys, from that one podcast, you know the one
Is that the adventure zone cast near the end looking at Fjord?? Lmao!! Great animatic
Poor Fjord
Hysterical
Absolutley amazing, i kinda miss the ol accent
Same here, Texan fjord lives on in my heart 😔 and thank you!!
Goodbye dignity.
Too bad he couldn’t do an eldritch toss.
2:49 Are those taako,merle and magnus? :D
Ehehehe, brilliant! :D
At 2:49 does the trio on the left look like Taako, Magnus and Merle (Tres Horny Boys) from The Adventure Zone to anyone else? Was that deliberate?
Looking through the comments I see that I am far from the first to notice this and it was indeed intentional.
2:50 I see you Magnus Taako and Merle XD
Do i see a certain woodcutter, an extreme teen bible preacher and culinary based wizard to the left at 2:49
DONT THINK I DIDNT SEE TAAKO MERLE AND MAGNUS THERE CAUSE I DID
2:52 TAAKO MERLE AND MAGNES
Is that magnus, takko and merul in the crowd?
Friendly reminder that Jester is stronger than Fjord
This is not a carnival game. It’s a thing of evil.
Why do I hear robin my head “and that’s an animated scorpion”
Ooohhhhh
I always missed the context because I usually have to do some light work when I watch
I always thought they were helping some dude fill a fact with sandbags
Or was that also a thing (where fjord had 3 Nat1 in row)
I always imagined the sacks as like, much larger grain sacks as opposed to little hackey-sack kinda things. Great animatic regardless tho
I think I did too, but then in retrospect how would a kid ever have done it at all? They kind of have to be smaller bags, especially since the basket is a foot across.
Ah, the imagination. What a wild ride it can be.

2:49 Hey I know those guys.
I deserve part 2 Pls! Hehehe
2:53 is that merle magnus and taako??
1:50 axeadental pocket sand
I havent watched them much, but is that the adventure zone crew in the crowd on some frames?
Is that Taako, Magnus, and Merle I see?
Fjorshadow
Three ones
Two shit throws can't get any worse
hahahahahahahahahahahahahaha
Yes it can and it will
I spy an adventure zone cameo
