This is literally the *best* piece of Lawl media from anyone I have ever seen so far! Well worth the wait! Super unexpected to come out *this* early too! And that freaking new logo and opening sequence is just, AWW! I love it so much! More reasons as to why Beatdown is my absolute favorite Lawl spinoff! I cannot wait to see what's in stored for Beatdown in the future! Rock on Shad!
You've far past outdone yourself dude. Genuinely the best piece of Lawl media out there and I've never been more impressed than I am now. You deserve all the praise you can get my guy, you've earned it ALSO BUTCH HARTMAN BOSS LETS GO
BRO I love the concept of when the match ends, a character says something to the other in dialogue form, your really outdid yourself, a virtual clap to you from me!
This Classic Mode video was SO GOOD HOLY SHIT. Pretty much everything I liked, from the biggest additions to the smallest details. The video could have just been a series of 1v1 matches culminating in one final round against Edd's rival (really good addition there, by the way!), but you really put all of your effort into making it as game-like as you could. The new visual effects, the realistic combos (Edd pushing Umbridge towards the edge while she was stunned made me laugh), the menus, the cave aesthetic, the ending featuring all of the opponents and where are they now and, holy shit, that Intro is so well done as well, and I love how it has silhouettes teasing future characters (and I recognised a lot of them hehehe). It's exactly the kind of cinematic I love to see before booting up a game! And of course, I cannot begin to praise the new additions to the lineup! Blockhead is one I am not particularly familiar with but his airheaded personality coupled with his flash artstyle makes him the perfect rival to Edd, and seeing Dio in action after so much build up in lore videos was incredibly hype (specially how you can see his portrait bleeding after being KO'd like in the Jojo fighting games, I loved that). And the new bosses, holy shit. Zanta was a really fitting choice and I liked the idea of him constantly jumping on and off the sleigh, but BUTCH HARTMAN WAS SO HILARIOUS TO SEE. Specially his attack where he turns Edd into one of his piss-lighting drawings (I hope we get to see all of his art of all of the characters, that'd be fantastic). For real dude, this video exceeded my expectations through the roof and it was so worth the wait. I am excited for that extra video you commented at the end!
Important time stamps 0:52 Edd vs Strong Bad 1:34 Edd vs Dan Backslide 2:07 Edd vs Mama Umbridge 2:58 Edd vs Markiplier 3:43 Edd vs The Thwomps 5:23 Edd vs The Butch 6:10 Edd vs Gary Oak 6:50 Edd vs Frisk 7:38 Edd & Tom vs John Egbert & Karkat Vantas 8:41 Edd vs Blockhead 10:08 Edd vs Dio 11:38 Edd vs Zanta Claws 15:29 Edd vs Eduardo In all seriousness, this might be the closest thing I've ever seen to real Super Smash Bros. Lawl gameplay. Can't wait for Mario Head's turn.
This is something I’ve wanted to do for a very long time. Not a Classic Mode for a Lawl Beatdown character specifically, but a Lawl video where the character it’s centered on has their series, their legacy, represented gloriously. It’s not %100 perfect, but holy crap the passion put into this project is clearly immense and outweighs said imperfections. Again, I really want to do a video project like this, but the fear of failure both in representing the source and presenting a low grade product keeps me back. I think people look up a lot to this Lawl, cause it genuinely feels the creator is putting their all into it. You gave this video the time it needed, and I’m certain you worked feverishly so everything played out as intended. The largest source of praise goes towards Edd himself. The way he maneuvers around the battlefield, and the many different eras of Eddsworld being well represented across his moveset are all greatly animated. Been watching Eddsworld a good deal lately, and it’s so gratifying to be able to spot where the attacks are taken from, or modified to make something more needed like the move with the cleavers. The move with the wind up punch looks like it was taken right out of not the episode it came from, but from the world itself. Audio cues such as when Tom is selected as your partner and the follow up Strife! were crazy well edited too. It’s not just Edd either who really looks like a lotta fun to play. From how charismatically weasly Dan Backslide moves around, to Mama Umbridge and how she dominates ground combat but kinda gimps in the air, to Markiplier with how stupidly well edited his sprites are to maintain consistency (also dat back throw, very spammable). It’s nuts how organically everyone plays out too. Like with Frisk using their attacks to move down the stairway, Gary getting KO’d by Pokemon as a fun knock to his ego, to The Cheat trying to be helpful by getting Edd’s gallon, ooooonly for that to backfire. Edd himself has a lot of close encounter losses at the end of each match, something I can really appreciate as it shows how much Lawl’s come in recreating that Smash Bros feel. Then there’s the revealed newcomers. … Honestly Blockhead is someone I wouldn’t initially feel that much hype for, but well crap man you nailed it on not only selling but representing this guy. There’s just a weird, smooth, slimy feel to the way he moves in his attacks, that gives me real early Newgrounds vibes, almost like… honestly a bit like how I’d imagine Salad Fingers would move in a Lawl as solidly animated as this one. Then there’s his Conscience. Listen you get a man who’s just done with life like Carl from ATHF as what seems like the character’s mechanic and I’mma instantly hooked. Then there’s Dio… This is someone I’ve wanted revealed in Beatdown for so long, and I’m so freaking happy he fights how Dio would in the anime, and not how Dio would in a fighting game. As in like, you didn’t just lift moves and sprites from the Capcom fighter : P (The losing reaction behind his knockout sprite was a topnotch touch). Aaaand admittedly it was a personal treat to see Edd knock the daylights outta him in a post Dio vs Alucard World. The rest of this offered so much Eddsworld tributing goodness too. With the Zanta battle, Eduardo rival battle, and Edd’s ending where he got exactly what he wanted all being such fun, loving nods to this series. Then there’s all the other smaller touches like the tunes playing for Edds end (which, yeah it sucks you couldn’t use Money, but honestly really like the mario cover. It’s cute, quirky and still fits the mood), and all the comics scrolling through the background. It doesn’t echo a personal nostalgia, but that nostalgic rush is still very clearly there. I and I’m sure so many people can agree, this Classic Mode, this video, is loved as both a product of its own, and as a product inspired by Eddsworld. From what that, FREAKING AWESOME, opening cutscene showed off it seems Beatdown is far from done. Hopefully we can all stay with you on the ride, as you can very hopefully continue doing what you love for this series. Thank you for not giving up, for not letting fear and doubt keep you back, and for letting Lawl Beatdown grow better and better as a Lawl series and as a series of its own. Also thank you for that hilarious fight with The Butch. The creativity and chaotic energy in that fight was an enormously fun, funny experience.
My god this is so well done! As an Eddsworld fan you get my seal of approval! I especially love the dialogue Edd has after winning matches and before the boss matches. They're just so in character I can just imagine hearing them in Edd's voice! I hope one day you'll do these for the other three!
This Classic Mode showcases everything great about Beatdown, from the interactions between characters to the spectacular animation! I do like how most of the characters fought in Edd's Classic Mode have the connection of well-known internet animations as their main rivalry, plus there was also the surprise of Blockhead being a new character on the roster. I also liked how the DIO fight played out, and the unexpected addition of Butch Hartman as a boss (complete with an Oaxis themed stage) was pretty creative with him using different aspects from the shows he created to help fight (ex: the Box Ghost from Danny Phantom). On top of that, the ending section of the video set to the SSB Ultimate intro music was beautifully made, and was the perfect way to cap off a milestone in Beatdown's saga. Congratulations for completing this great video, you've earned a well-deserved break after months of editing and preparing this!
This had me over the moon. The editing was tons better than ever before, the little touches such as the end battle quotes, character moments, the where are they now moment, all fantastic and really made the whole thing infinitely superior. The boss where a lovely surprise and had me amazed by the choices, and it was so cool finally getting a look at Dio after all this time. The Ultimate intro thing at the end had me grinning like the Cheshire cat, this project has gone so far and I am so happy that I have gotten to be here to experience it. From the bottom of my heart, thank you for doing this, I hope you have a lovely day, and keep up the fantastic work.
This has to be one of the most beautifully crafted Eddsworld fanmade content ever. Not gonna lie, Edd's ending was making me emotional before the funny twist.
God, this is just..beautiful, aaa ;; That ending bit was so worth the wait, I cant stop rewatching it Seeing all four of the starting characters be protags (with Frisk too!) just makes me really happy, its such a cool group dynamic and the teammup with Mark and Ed was so heartwarming ;w;
That was obscenely worth the wait. Animation is improved, I love your take on the Classic Mode formula, the bosses were fantastic, the fights were so smooth and fun to watch, the characters introduced were a joy to see, the blurbs at the end for the fighters were a joy to read through, I love your original sprites, and I'm happy that Matt was confirmed to have a Just A Bit Crazy move to round out the Eddsworld cast. I absolutely cannot wait to see what Beatdown has in store next, even those superlative videos.
Beautiful work ❤ The dedication to the bit is impressive, sheer level of detail but also consistency make for a genuinely believable video game. I'm glad I came across this!
Okay, that Butch Hartman Boss was legit the best part of this video. In all seriousness, this video was genuinely amazing. It looks so real, and this, coupled with BeatdownBound makes me kinda wish this was a real game lol. I love how Dio fights, or how you handled Frisk's Playstyles decision at the beginning of the fight. The Animation is amazing and THAT OPENING!!!!!!!!!!!!! This is a work of art and makes me crave more, but please take your time. Don't rush yourself. Overall, 10/10 I loved this lmao.
Absolutely astonishing work, dude! The Classic Mode itself was a heck of a journey for Edd (that Butch Hartman boss battle was a laugh) and that Beatdown opening you showed off was animated incredibly well! Keep up the amazing work as you've proven one of the best Lawl makers there is!
I have been waiting for so long for this but this is the best thing I watched. I can't wait for which video will be next. Also, Dio's idle looks so amazing you made.
It's been 3 years of hardworking that you've been working through.... and for once, this classic mode of yours are one of my favorite lawl videos of all time.
I'm blown away by the amount of animation and editing you had done, this was an extreme treat. Great job! Amazing! A round of applauds to how much you had done. 10 out of 10. Also, I can't believe we got a new character out of this entire classic mode! Just amazing. The amount of effort you took was outstanding! A masterpiece! Also, it's nice to see that there are unlockable characters in this game. I can imagine the unlock conditions for Eduardo: Beat Classic Mode with Edd at Normal Difficulty.
I found this video series a few days ago and it has not disappointed in the slightest, this is glorious and I cannot wait to continue to follow it in the future
I honestly haven't watched any Lawl videos in a while, so this coming out was quite a surprise! Especially when it's earlier than expected! Spoilers for those who haven't watched this video yet, though. - I just love Edd's classic mode in general... it's taken a good while for you to make this, and it turned out really great! - I love Edd's puns in some of his classic mode quotes! (He has a very linguistic edd-ucation!) - Seeing Butch Hartman as a miniboss made me freak the heck out. I might have freaked out more than Stephen Quire when I saw that. - Absolutely love Blockhead's inclusion to Lawl Beatdown as Edd's rival. Nice to see another character from another Flash animated Newgrounds series! I honestly love how he still smiles as he's getting damaged he's just like "Ok bye" when he's KO'ed - Even though I'm not too much into JoJo's Bizarre Adventure, Dio's introduction was pretty great! - I like Zanta Claus as a boss. I like how he jumps into his sleigh once in a while to attack Edd. - I really love your ability to copy the Eddsworld artstyle. It's really well done and really looks a lot like Edd's art. - I like that fight with Eduardo as an unlockable character. It's a pretty nice addition. - But what I like the most about this video is the Smash Bros intro at the end. It's just so beautiful and I love the amount of effort that you put into it. It's easily the best part of this video to me. - That sketch at the end is also very nice! You're a pretty amazing artist, and I kind of like it more than my art tbh. Overall, this was very well done! It's just so nice to see how much Beatdown has changed ever since its first moveset! The fact that every Lawl Beatdown video continues to get better just makes it my favorite Lawl spinoff ever.
17:14 - Taking a careful closer look at all the locations on the right (yes I read the Behind the Scenes Google Documents before re-watching what I'd consider your magnum opus), I identified the mansion (green), training colosseum (grey), DIO's hideout (dark yellow) and the haunted house from The Thwomps and Kiran's moveset (red). As far as the other locations on that map are concerned, I'm not sure whether that brown mountain is meant to be the Classic Mode cave or a different location that hasn't appeared in the lore yet? There are also those dark grey mountains covering two other possibly major locations that haven't appeared in the lore yet, such as that house(?) on the left that's covered in static and what I can definitely identify being the Green Sun from "Homestuck" on the right. Whatever other plans you have in store for the future, Shad, I really am looking forward to seeing them come into fruition.😉
Daaamn. You took Lawl's classic mode to the next level, man, cause in the original, it was more inspired by Street Fighter Alpha 3 and Mortal Kombat. Skapokon made her own thing to differ from it, but you sir solidified it. I have never seen this video so detailed about everything. I'm honestly unexpected for Butch to show up as a boss before Dio, who speaking of, finally appeared after being just a shadow in the pervious videos. I can't wait for more info about it's minigames and other stuff.
This was seriously cool! I really loved how fluent and realistic these battles were! I especially loved the battles where it felt that it could go either way! The effort you put into all of this is honestly beautiful! All the attack and movement animations made for this, all the new and well-made stages, and especially the Zanta Claws and Butch Hartman boss! also you scare me a lot shad Also that Blockhead reveal was amazing! I haven't seem much of it, to be honest, but it seems like a really fitting rival for Edd! On that note, those second-to-last battles were especially great! Even if it did contain a few moveset spoilers, it was still very enjoyable to watch! Also also, I look how much this looks like a genuine game! The menus, the option to skip cutscenes, fighting Eduardo as an Unlockable, and other nice touches that made it feel realistic! And the OP? Absolutely GORGEOUS! Those smooth movements and high-energy scenes were amazing, and I think it was worth every second you put into it! also those teasers in case you ever do this again that All in all, amazing work! Here's to a happy new year!
Ya know, when I was waiting for Edds Classic Mode, I always wondered how it was gonna be, I thought it would be superb, Stellar, or completely amazing, but Now that I’ve seen it for myself, it’s exceeded my expectations and is, better than all those words combined! The pacing Is Perfect, the battles are SUPER well animated, and the new Animation quality is incredible! The new camera movement definitely shows this! Edds interaction with the other characters and Victory quotes are EXACTLY what he would normally say! You voicing as Gary Oak is amazing and on Point, and the presentation of the Menu and Battle choosing is absolutely fantastic! Butch Hartman and Zanta Claws were amazing Suprise Bosses and translate very well into Boss battles! The attacks In Beatdown translate perfectly well into this Classic Mode, and all the small patches to characters that can be seen in the battles are great! ALL of Edds attacks are the best possible choices for Him! As for Blockhead, despite my unfamiliarity with his source still looks and sounds very fun and I’m super hyped for him! Speaking of Super Hyped, I can say the Same to Dio! I’ve been wondering if he would be in this Lawls Gameplay, and he was, and he DEFINITELY didn’t disappoint! The ending and Rival battle with Eduardo were absolutely great and felt like they’re actually part of the Eddsworld Status Quo! The world of Light ending cutscene cinematic was absolutely perfect, and the definition of High Quality! I think this is your Best work Shad, and arguably some of the best of the Lawl Community! Total Masterpiece, and Is one of the Best Videos I have seen from this community. This is an easy example for why the Lawl Community is Amazing. Great Job! This went above and beyond in terms of quality and I love it! I’m VERY excited for what to come for Beatdown! Easy 11/10.
Holy shit. The road was long, but goddamn if it wasn't worth it. This is the best video you've made so far. From the fights, to the bosses, to the game intro. And while I have no idea who Blockhead is, it does make me happy that Dio is a playable character. Here's to more videos like this in the future.
shadbad...this..this left me utterally speechless. every single frame is a masterpeice, i cn really tell just how much time went into this and it more than payed off, from the moving camera, to all the new normals shown off,and even saying how good thoes are doesn't do it justice (even small details like how ed yells "dash" when he dashes). dare i say it, THIS is you magnomopas right here! the near ending bits are what got me the most though with Edds rival being announced (even if i don't know who he is) and &#*@INF DIO ANNOUNCED AS PLAYABLE!! I couldn't be any happier to see him in as a jojo fan!! probably the the fighter i'm the 2nd most hyped for out of all the undone ones. (plus the two bosses, god danm thoes were just pure gold with Butch and Zanta who fits right in as a boss comared to a fighter!) but best of all....that intro...that was...that was just so beautiful..my jaw dropped at it. i loved every last second of it, nothing can repeliate the joy i felt watching this whole video, there's no need to thank us shadbad..thank YOU for not only inspiring so many lawlers,leaving an impact on this community,but most important of all, bringing us amazing work that has nothing but love and passion put into it. it's been an amazning 5 years. Here's to both a new year, and a BIG future for Lawl Beatdown!!
I think i have a new favorite Classic Mode. The wait was Indeed worth it, because not only do we get to see every battle from start to finish, there is so much content and so much detail put into everything. The animation is more smooth than ever, we get to see the alternative outcomes of the losing participants, every elevator has its own sign, we have a post ending battle with Edduardo, and even the dialogues still feel true to every character. And that new full intro.....is just so beautiful. I may copy paste what i said on previous Eddsworld movesets but i mean it when i Say it: Edd Gould would be proud. Kudos to You, sir.
The wait was worth it. i have a hard time expressing my thoughts so i’ll just list em down 1. i loved seeing how all the fights were animated and choreographed i guess you can say. i was really at the edge of my seat with some of the fights like Zanta and thats an accomplishment 2. the Butch Hartman miniboss was really funny! didnt expect that. when edd finally defeated him i thought to myself “is he gonna fall down the screen like in Mario?” and sure enough he did. amazing 3. soo excited seeing all the upcoming characters like DIO. that short charge up special with The World was pretty interesting and i hope to see more 4. You really nailed the videogame feel! i liked how you added a “press hold to skip cutscene” text during the classic mode intro that was really cool + choosing which character you can fight really makes me think of the different possibilities (if only this were a real game) and lil side note i liked how you used John and Karkat’s Pesterquest sprites i just think thats neat overall great video dude. keep doing what you love
Oh my goodness, this was so incredibly amazing. Where do I even start? The transitions between battles is great; I love how you pick a door to enter. The pre-battle and post-battle dialogue was wonderful and very charming. I love that we get to see actual “game”play happening! That part in the middle where you get to choose a minigame is brilliant-and I did NOT expect Butch Hartman as a boss. The final battle where he fought Blockhead, DIO, and Zanta was frickin’ great. And I was personally filled with absolute delight when you used Pump It for the fight against the Thwomps. Plus, that ending cinematic for the route. Loved it. Plus plus, Eduardo coming in by surprise after the end. Loved that too. Plus plus plus, that OPENING cinematic at the end of the video. Absolutely divine. Incredible video all around, and I’m super-excited for what’s to come.
i’ve seen the eddsworld movesets and i just got to this video and you’re telling me this isn’t an actual game i could play?? dudeee i spent almost an entire year thinking this was playable until i actually looked it up xD it’s such a creative series
Damn, this thing animated like a well oiled machine. Words cannot describe how welldone this was. This might actually be one of the greatest pieces of Lawl Media I've seen thus far. Watching this reminded me of why I love Lawl in the first place and why I still hold this community close to my heart. Seriously, the bosses, the animation, everything about this is so good. The sequence at the end was the just the cherry on top and makes me so excited for what's to come for this lawl.
Man, This is Awesome! The Fights, The Reveal For Some New Fighters, The Fights, Bosses, End Credits, Did I Mention the Fights Yet?, & The Cutscene At the End of it all! Absolutely Beautiful! This was Worth the Wait, Amazing Job On This. Congrats again on 5 Years & Looking Forward To Some of these “New” (Technically Only One is Revealed to be Classified, New Reveal But Still) Fighters! :D
Dude I’m proud to see we’re you came from a small lawl series to a full fledge game to this. This video made me gush on the amount of fan services that was brought in (especially with Butch Hartman) the credits almost getting emotional at one point, I’m proud to see how far your Channel has grown and I hope it grows even more! Edit: I saw the ending and a pure smile was put on my face
my favorite lawl video you've made so far, Shad. it was a long wait, but atleast it was all worth it. and hy, maybe now you should take time with your next moveset, because that's what makes a good lawl, time. so good luck with your future plans, man :3
I shall compress all my comments into one This is masterfully edited, amazing work, you've definitely earned all the compliment the other comments dropped In response to the section of the disclaimer about the potential with the lawl game in the future, it's technically already possible to make Lawl characters a reality via the Rivals of Aether steam workshop, and honestly I'm surprised I haven't seen many Lawl characters on there. Butch spending his entire battle giving a self indulgent speech is actually hilarious Woah a whole new character Woah, TWO whole new characters That opening at the end was absolutely breathtaking and I couldn't ask for anything better
The amount of effort put into this classic mode is amazing. This is very well made. It really shows how much you have improve with not only your Lawl animations, but your editing skills as well. Great work!
Holy crap! That was an amazing experience! I think I speak for all of us when I say that this was definitely and undoubtedly worth the wait. I had no idea who Blockhead was at the time of first watching this, but since then, I checked out his source material on TH-cam, and I'll say he is pretty funny. I look forward to seeing what you end up doing with him. And I'm DEFINITELY glad to see that DIO is gonna be playable too! Happy Dio Day, everybody! Also, that intro. Oh mama, that fricking intro! That was just as amazing as the Classic Mode itself! It was nice to see more surprise bosses added in like Cinder (even though I hate her) and Flowey. And let's not forget about the legendary Butch Hartman! :P And also, I have a feeling those silhouettes with Ruby were other characters from RWBY. I could've sworn the silhouette next to her was Yang. And I could be wrong, but I think the one next to her could be Blake with her short hair. (Although I prefer her with long hair) Couldn't tell if Weiss was among the silhouettes though. Honestly, I really hope it is. We can't have Ruby without the rest of her team. IMO, no one can replace Team RWBY. Besides, you managed to make amazing movesets of all 4 members of the Eddsworld crew, so I don't see why you can't do the same thing with all 4 members of Team RWBY as well. Also... fricking Loki's in this too?! 😮 Either way, I'm hyped as ever for more Beatdown goodness! Shad, God bless you!
Shad, this is one of the most awesomest things I ever watched! You definitely did fantastic and you definitely deserve a break for all your hard work! Great job! 😁👍
Shad that was the greatest Classic Mode for Edd ever hands down the best I've ever seen and the lore and everything was amazing too I even was surprised on everything from the fights and everything else you did I'm just so surprised on the bosses from Butch Hartman to Zanta Claws and DIO was amazing to I love the references to even the details you did and I love the new Beatdown Logo It's so awesome 💯 and Edd's rival being Blockhead was something too Shad I was surprised by that. I can't wait to see more amazing things coming to Beatdown and what's in store for the Lore of Beatdown +ShadBad88 Awesome Job on Classic Mode as well as everything else and I can't wait what's more to come in Lawl Beatdown 👊
god this was phenomenal the amount of detail with every aspect of this is frankly, completely bonkers the character interactions are, as usual, top notch and holy fuck that ending had me squealing for more reasons then one also the butch Hartman boss had me basically dying of laughter, like I had to pause for a second just so I didn't miss any details during the fight itself
Everybody talking about Ultimate: Darn, Shadbad88 is talanted with Smash Bros. (Pacing, Blockhead, The Butch, Dio being playable, SSBU styled intro) Me: Anybody forgot that Shadbad LITERALLY made a new logo?! That is aweshum! (Intentional Reference) A year is gone, but that year of waiting has brought us to this masterpiece. This makes me hopeful to see more of your movesets! (It makes me wonder if that fist would be a part of the hud though...) Anyway, I hope you'll be ok after that work. (Good thing you're taking the break though... That looked stressful.)
Secret battle cutscene: Tom: Can't believe Eduardo tried to ruin our lifetime Cola. Matt: Same. Good thing he didn't ruin my face. Edd: This is a life. ???: Aren't you quite the adventurer. Edd: That voice... It sounds like... Tord: You thought Eduardo worked alone?
This was amazing this is the most amazing Smash Bros. Lawl Classic I have ever seen Bravo man Bra Fn Vo a applaud you good sir can’t wait to see what you come up with next. 😉👍🏻 #Smashbroslawlbeatdown #Smashbroslawl #Lawlforever
Shad promote your self from bad to dad cause dam you delivered I loved every detail you put into this From the multiple options like this was a videogame To the multiple bosses To the menu To marks updates sprites To strong bads up B sprite being fixed To edd literally saying ‘dash’ every time he runs, just wow- This was all together edd-cellent and I’m sure if edd was here today he’d be proud That intro and new logo was splendid, that better be its own upload lol Don’t know who blockhead is but hey someone’s happy My favourite thing gotta be that camera work, I don’t how you do it but you make it fit perfectly, you gotta share ya talents 🥺 Whatever you do after this wether it’s a new moveset, another lawl lore game or hell even Reyns toast your appreciated for it From the intro I see we have more characters to come and we’re all for it Your animating and editing has ascended to godly levels that I would honestly love to see updates from old stuff you made like final smash for characters like strong bad and mark Honestly you did a amazing job And finally thanks for giving the world another spin, for both edd and smash
thanks youtube very cool for that spoiler preview gif when you hover over the thumbnail that besides this was really damn good but like damn the ending cinematic was great you didnt have to go the extra mile and yet you did
I really don't know what to say dude lmao. That was awesome and I think I need to watch it like three more times at least tonight. Also the sleuth in me is ecstatic to see all these new silhouettes and I hope to see other people making guesses to who all is here and what other blink and you miss it stuff you hid in here (especially that world of light sequence, just so much going on there alone lmfao) I'm open to discussion in the replies. What else.... uh did not expect the surprise appearance of Butch Hartman lmfao. That was very funny and also particularly well animated as a boss fight. I hope he works with DIO in the story mode I feel like as I watch this more I will just have more questions but I'll try not to ask too many cause I'm sure there's a lot of surprises you want to keep. Looking forward to the supplemental video in the near future! It may be bold to say but I think at this point you've surpassed the original lawl in terms of both scale and quality, and I feel pretty confident in that statement. I'm very invested and hope to see plenty more from you in 2022. Especially excited for that new empty slot.
I am having pretty shit luck with most of the silhouettes HOWEVER I can unmistakingly see that Loki is there, which if correct, is hype as FUCK. Again, if anyone wants to speculate with me, that'd be great lol. There's about 20 and I haven't much clue. (Which means theres like 55 fighters total on the roster right now, all of the revealed ones + dio + the heavily teased mr dink + paul as gary's echo. Might be 56, cause I feel like there's some hint's the batter's monster form might be an echo, judging by how he appeared with chara/frisk, darkiplier and ellen) There's someone with a wizard hat in the back who might be Taako, but that's just a guess based on how Shad has expressed a fondness for the Adventure Zone.
Is the person to the immediate left of Vriska's wing.... Popeye? Also the person/people on vriska's right confused me for a little bit due to the weird proportions, but I think it might actually be Neil Cicierega, holding a Potter Puppet Pal? It looks like someone holding a puppet anyways.
ok so i'll speculate with you here. 1. first off, i would agree that two of them is definently Loki and Mr Dink but the others..well yeah, it's tricky. however, they might not all be fighters. i was looking in the trophy section on the wiki, i think i found out 3/4 from the ruby rose section of it. thoes being Cinder Fall,Qrow Barwen,and general Ironwood. i MAYBE also see another jojo charcter? i say that given how there is a massive character behind him that could be a stand. (i'd say either Jotaro or Josuke though it looks a bit more like Josuke) 2. looking at the near end, i noticed the staticy sillouette of the Dimonds from Steven Universe though they might just be bosses (since i really don't know how they would work as fighters) 3. i don't fully get why the Monster version of Batter is in the part with the echos given how he's confirmed to be an Alt but i guess we'll just have to see.
@@ryderwilliams5691 I'm not sure the people with RWBY are those other RWBY characters (although i think the one right next to ruby could possibly be Yang, just because of the little tuft of hair that seems to match). Cinder Fall also seems to be one of the bosses of classic mode, based on the quick montage with trogdor, flowey and beck noir. And being an antagonist, I doubt she'd be working with Ruby anyways, as seen in the shot in the trailer. I also saw White Diamond near the end, along with Lord English from Homestuck. I assume those are gonna be bosses that pop up in a story mode or somthing like that. At what time and place do you think you saw the potential Jojo character? It's pretty tricky though. A lot of the silhouettes are very weird shapes to me. Especially with them all standing next to eachother, I dont always know where one starts and where one ends. Hopefully he'll upload the making of doc soon and maybe all the silhouettes will be there for easier guessing.
@@mabelpines2783 thank you for clarifying that since I'm not at all a RWBY fan, I just saw the trothies and thought they looked similar. Also I saw the JoJo rep at 18:23 in the very right corner
This is literally the *best* piece of Lawl media from anyone I have ever seen so far! Well worth the wait! Super unexpected to come out *this* early too! And that freaking new logo and opening sequence is just, AWW! I love it so much! More reasons as to why Beatdown is my absolute favorite Lawl spinoff! I cannot wait to see what's in stored for Beatdown in the future! Rock on Shad!
yea! now i wanna see someone make an actual fan game out of this
You've far past outdone yourself dude. Genuinely the best piece of Lawl media out there and I've never been more impressed than I am now. You deserve all the praise you can get my guy, you've earned it
ALSO BUTCH HARTMAN BOSS LETS GO
BRO I love the concept of when the match ends, a character says something to the other in dialogue form, your really outdid yourself, a virtual clap to you from me!
This Classic Mode video was SO GOOD HOLY SHIT. Pretty much everything I liked, from the biggest additions to the smallest details. The video could have just been a series of 1v1 matches culminating in one final round against Edd's rival (really good addition there, by the way!), but you really put all of your effort into making it as game-like as you could. The new visual effects, the realistic combos (Edd pushing Umbridge towards the edge while she was stunned made me laugh), the menus, the cave aesthetic, the ending featuring all of the opponents and where are they now and, holy shit, that Intro is so well done as well, and I love how it has silhouettes teasing future characters (and I recognised a lot of them hehehe). It's exactly the kind of cinematic I love to see before booting up a game!
And of course, I cannot begin to praise the new additions to the lineup! Blockhead is one I am not particularly familiar with but his airheaded personality coupled with his flash artstyle makes him the perfect rival to Edd, and seeing Dio in action after so much build up in lore videos was incredibly hype (specially how you can see his portrait bleeding after being KO'd like in the Jojo fighting games, I loved that). And the new bosses, holy shit. Zanta was a really fitting choice and I liked the idea of him constantly jumping on and off the sleigh, but BUTCH HARTMAN WAS SO HILARIOUS TO SEE. Specially his attack where he turns Edd into one of his piss-lighting drawings (I hope we get to see all of his art of all of the characters, that'd be fantastic).
For real dude, this video exceeded my expectations through the roof and it was so worth the wait. I am excited for that extra video you commented at the end!
You recognize the silhouettes eh?
Mind sharing? /hj xD
@@mabelpines2783 I think one of them was Yang Xiao Long from RWBY! 😁
@@TheBillliantOne which one? the one standing next to ruby?
@@mabelpines2783 Yeah. And I think the one standing next to her MIGHT have been Blake? IDK, but I hope all 4 members of Team RWBY make the cut.
you know you've done good when one of the oldest lawl creators is praising you

In all seriousness, this might be the closest thing I've ever seen to real Super Smash Bros. Lawl gameplay.
Can't wait for Mario Head's turn.
"Mario Head's turn"?
This is something I’ve wanted to do for a very long time. Not a Classic Mode for a Lawl Beatdown character specifically, but a Lawl video where the character it’s centered on has their series, their legacy, represented gloriously. It’s not %100 perfect, but holy crap the passion put into this project is clearly immense and outweighs said imperfections. Again, I really want to do a video project like this, but the fear of failure both in representing the source and presenting a low grade product keeps me back. I think people look up a lot to this Lawl, cause it genuinely feels the creator is putting their all into it. You gave this video the time it needed, and I’m certain you worked feverishly so everything played out as intended.
The largest source of praise goes towards Edd himself. The way he maneuvers around the battlefield, and the many different eras of Eddsworld being well represented across his moveset are all greatly animated. Been watching Eddsworld a good deal lately, and it’s so gratifying to be able to spot where the attacks are taken from, or modified to make something more needed like the move with the cleavers. The move with the wind up punch looks like it was taken right out of not the episode it came from, but from the world itself. Audio cues such as when Tom is selected as your partner and the follow up Strife! were crazy well edited too.
It’s not just Edd either who really looks like a lotta fun to play. From how charismatically weasly Dan Backslide moves around, to Mama Umbridge and how she dominates ground combat but kinda gimps in the air, to Markiplier with how stupidly well edited his sprites are to maintain consistency (also dat back throw, very spammable). It’s nuts how organically everyone plays out too. Like with Frisk using their attacks to move down the stairway, Gary getting KO’d by Pokemon as a fun knock to his ego, to The Cheat trying to be helpful by getting Edd’s gallon, ooooonly for that to backfire. Edd himself has a lot of close encounter losses at the end of each match, something I can really appreciate as it shows how much Lawl’s come in recreating that Smash Bros feel.
Then there’s the revealed newcomers. … Honestly Blockhead is someone I wouldn’t initially feel that much hype for, but well crap man you nailed it on not only selling but representing this guy. There’s just a weird, smooth, slimy feel to the way he moves in his attacks, that gives me real early Newgrounds vibes, almost like… honestly a bit like how I’d imagine Salad Fingers would move in a Lawl as solidly animated as this one. Then there’s his Conscience. Listen you get a man who’s just done with life like Carl from ATHF as what seems like the character’s mechanic and I’mma instantly hooked.
Then there’s Dio… This is someone I’ve wanted revealed in Beatdown for so long, and I’m so freaking happy he fights how Dio would in the anime, and not how Dio would in a fighting game. As in like, you didn’t just lift moves and sprites from the Capcom fighter : P (The losing reaction behind his knockout sprite was a topnotch touch). Aaaand admittedly it was a personal treat to see Edd knock the daylights outta him in a post Dio vs Alucard World.
The rest of this offered so much Eddsworld tributing goodness too. With the Zanta battle, Eduardo rival battle, and Edd’s ending where he got exactly what he wanted all being such fun, loving nods to this series. Then there’s all the other smaller touches like the tunes playing for Edds end (which, yeah it sucks you couldn’t use Money, but honestly really like the mario cover. It’s cute, quirky and still fits the mood), and all the comics scrolling through the background. It doesn’t echo a personal nostalgia, but that nostalgic rush is still very clearly there.
I and I’m sure so many people can agree, this Classic Mode, this video, is loved as both a product of its own, and as a product inspired by Eddsworld. From what that, FREAKING AWESOME, opening cutscene showed off it seems Beatdown is far from done. Hopefully we can all stay with you on the ride, as you can very hopefully continue doing what you love for this series. Thank you for not giving up, for not letting fear and doubt keep you back, and for letting Lawl Beatdown grow better and better as a Lawl series and as a series of its own.
Also thank you for that hilarious fight with The Butch. The creativity and chaotic energy in that fight was an enormously fun, funny experience.
My god this is so well done! As an Eddsworld fan you get my seal of approval! I especially love the dialogue Edd has after winning matches and before the boss matches. They're just so in character I can just imagine hearing them in Edd's voice! I hope one day you'll do these for the other three!
This Classic Mode showcases everything great about Beatdown, from the interactions between characters to the spectacular animation! I do like how most of the characters fought in Edd's Classic Mode have the connection of well-known internet animations as their main rivalry, plus there was also the surprise of Blockhead being a new character on the roster. I also liked how the DIO fight played out, and the unexpected addition of Butch Hartman as a boss (complete with an Oaxis themed stage) was pretty creative with him using different aspects from the shows he created to help fight (ex: the Box Ghost from Danny Phantom).
On top of that, the ending section of the video set to the SSB Ultimate intro music was beautifully made, and was the perfect way to cap off a milestone in Beatdown's saga.
Congratulations for completing this great video, you've earned a well-deserved break after months of editing and preparing this!
I don't know why, but it's so funny to see "Lunatic" while seeing a clip of Edd slowly smiling.
This had me over the moon. The editing was tons better than ever before, the little touches such as the end battle quotes, character moments, the where are they now moment, all fantastic and really made the whole thing infinitely superior. The boss where a lovely surprise and had me amazed by the choices, and it was so cool finally getting a look at Dio after all this time.
The Ultimate intro thing at the end had me grinning like the Cheshire cat, this project has gone so far and I am so happy that I have gotten to be here to experience it. From the bottom of my heart, thank you for doing this, I hope you have a lovely day, and keep up the fantastic work.
Love cool
This has to be one of the most beautifully crafted Eddsworld fanmade content ever.
Not gonna lie, Edd's ending was making me emotional before the funny twist.
God, this is just..beautiful, aaa ;; That ending bit was so worth the wait, I cant stop rewatching it
Seeing all four of the starting characters be protags (with Frisk too!) just makes me really happy, its such a cool group dynamic and the teammup with Mark and Ed was so heartwarming ;w;
Okay Ive watched this 15 times over now and I kinda want to watch Blockhead's source, he might be a new favorite of mine now
@@Hebleh I actually did after this. I recommend it.
From the boss fights, to the ending video. To the details in the credits, to everything in between, this is one of the best Lawl videos I've seen.
That was obscenely worth the wait.
Animation is improved, I love your take on the Classic Mode formula, the bosses were fantastic, the fights were so smooth and fun to watch, the characters introduced were a joy to see, the blurbs at the end for the fighters were a joy to read through, I love your original sprites, and I'm happy that Matt was confirmed to have a Just A Bit Crazy move to round out the Eddsworld cast. I absolutely cannot wait to see what Beatdown has in store next, even those superlative videos.
This is prolly the most impressive smash lawl video I've ever seen in years, good job bro
Beautiful work ❤ The dedication to the bit is impressive, sheer level of detail but also consistency make for a genuinely believable video game. I'm glad I came across this!
Okay, that Butch Hartman Boss was legit the best part of this video. In all seriousness, this video was genuinely amazing. It looks so real, and this, coupled with BeatdownBound makes me kinda wish this was a real game lol. I love how Dio fights, or how you handled Frisk's Playstyles decision at the beginning of the fight. The Animation is amazing and THAT OPENING!!!!!!!!!!!!! This is a work of art and makes me crave more, but please take your time. Don't rush yourself. Overall, 10/10 I loved this lmao.
That intro in the end almost made me cry of how good it is!
Absolutely astonishing work, dude!
The Classic Mode itself was a heck of a journey for Edd (that Butch Hartman boss battle was a laugh) and that Beatdown opening you showed off was animated incredibly well! Keep up the amazing work as you've proven one of the best Lawl makers there is!
I have been waiting for so long for this but this is the best thing I watched. I can't wait for which video will be next. Also, Dio's idle looks so amazing you made.
@@gabrielnader1099 DIO's an Assist Trophy in Nova, not playable.
@@gabrielnader1099 I mean in Nova, not Beatdown. He's playable in this, but in Nova, he isn't.
It's been 3 years of hardworking that you've been working through.... and for once, this classic mode of yours are one of my favorite lawl videos of all time.
I'm blown away by the amount of animation and editing you had done, this was an extreme treat.
Great job! Amazing! A round of applauds to how much you had done. 10 out of 10.
Also, I can't believe we got a new character out of this entire classic mode! Just amazing.
The amount of effort you took was outstanding! A masterpiece!
Also, it's nice to see that there are unlockable characters in this game. I can imagine the unlock conditions for Eduardo: Beat Classic Mode with Edd at Normal Difficulty.
I found this video series a few days ago and it has not disappointed in the slightest, this is glorious and I cannot wait to continue to follow it in the future
I honestly haven't watched any Lawl videos in a while, so this coming out was quite a surprise! Especially when it's earlier than expected! Spoilers for those who haven't watched this video yet, though.
- I just love Edd's classic mode in general... it's taken a good while for you to make this, and it turned out really great!
- I love Edd's puns in some of his classic mode quotes! (He has a very linguistic edd-ucation!)
- Seeing Butch Hartman as a miniboss made me freak the heck out. I might have freaked out more than Stephen Quire when I saw that.
- Absolutely love Blockhead's inclusion to Lawl Beatdown as Edd's rival. Nice to see another character from another Flash animated Newgrounds series! I honestly love how he still smiles as he's getting damaged he's just like "Ok bye" when he's KO'ed
- Even though I'm not too much into JoJo's Bizarre Adventure, Dio's introduction was pretty great!
- I like Zanta Claus as a boss. I like how he jumps into his sleigh once in a while to attack Edd.
- I really love your ability to copy the Eddsworld artstyle. It's really well done and really looks a lot like Edd's art.
- I like that fight with Eduardo as an unlockable character. It's a pretty nice addition.
- But what I like the most about this video is the Smash Bros intro at the end. It's just so beautiful and I love the amount of effort that you put into it. It's easily the best part of this video to me.
- That sketch at the end is also very nice! You're a pretty amazing artist, and I kind of like it more than my art tbh.
Overall, this was very well done! It's just so nice to see how much Beatdown has changed ever since its first moveset! The fact that every Lawl Beatdown video continues to get better just makes it my favorite Lawl spinoff ever.
17:14 - Taking a careful closer look at all the locations on the right (yes I read the Behind the Scenes Google Documents before re-watching what I'd consider your magnum opus), I identified the mansion (green), training colosseum (grey), DIO's hideout (dark yellow) and the haunted house from The Thwomps and Kiran's moveset (red).
As far as the other locations on that map are concerned, I'm not sure whether that brown mountain is meant to be the Classic Mode cave or a different location that hasn't appeared in the lore yet? There are also those dark grey mountains covering two other possibly major locations that haven't appeared in the lore yet, such as that house(?) on the left that's covered in static and what I can definitely identify being the Green Sun from "Homestuck" on the right.
Whatever other plans you have in store for the future, Shad, I really am looking forward to seeing them come into fruition.😉
Best Classic Mode....Evah
Shad,you have outdone yourself and previous Classic Modes,hoping for a bright future for Lawl Beatdown.
Daaamn. You took Lawl's classic mode to the next level, man, cause in the original, it was more inspired by Street Fighter Alpha 3 and Mortal Kombat. Skapokon made her own thing to differ from it, but you sir solidified it. I have never seen this video so detailed about everything. I'm honestly unexpected for Butch to show up as a boss before Dio, who speaking of, finally appeared after being just a shadow in the pervious videos. I can't wait for more info about it's minigames and other stuff.
Wow. That... was...
THE GREATEST THING I'VE EVER SEEN IN THE LAWL HISTORY EVER!!!
This was seriously cool! I really loved how fluent and realistic these battles were! I especially loved the battles where it felt that it could go either way!
The effort you put into all of this is honestly beautiful! All the attack and movement animations made for this, all the new and well-made stages, and especially the Zanta Claws and Butch Hartman boss! also you scare me a lot shad
Also that Blockhead reveal was amazing! I haven't seem much of it, to be honest, but it seems like a really fitting rival for Edd! On that note, those second-to-last battles were especially great! Even if it did contain a few moveset spoilers, it was still very enjoyable to watch!
Also also, I look how much this looks like a genuine game! The menus, the option to skip cutscenes, fighting Eduardo as an Unlockable, and other nice touches that made it feel realistic!
And the OP? Absolutely GORGEOUS! Those smooth movements and high-energy scenes were amazing, and I think it was worth every second you put into it! also those teasers in case you ever do this again that
All in all, amazing work! Here's to a happy new year!
Ya know, when I was waiting for Edds Classic Mode, I always wondered how it was gonna be, I thought it would be superb, Stellar, or completely amazing, but Now that I’ve seen it for myself, it’s exceeded my expectations and is, better than all those words combined! The pacing Is Perfect, the battles are SUPER well animated, and the new Animation quality is incredible! The new camera movement definitely shows this! Edds interaction with the other characters and Victory quotes are EXACTLY what he would normally say! You voicing as Gary Oak is amazing and on Point, and the presentation of the Menu and Battle choosing is absolutely fantastic! Butch Hartman and Zanta Claws were amazing Suprise Bosses and translate very well into Boss battles! The attacks In Beatdown translate perfectly well into this Classic Mode, and all the small patches to characters that can be seen in the battles are great! ALL of Edds attacks are the best possible choices for Him! As for Blockhead, despite my unfamiliarity with his source still looks and sounds very fun and I’m super hyped for him! Speaking of Super Hyped, I can say the Same to Dio! I’ve been wondering if he would be in this Lawls Gameplay, and he was, and he DEFINITELY didn’t disappoint! The ending and Rival battle with Eduardo were absolutely great and felt like they’re actually part of the Eddsworld Status Quo! The world of Light ending cutscene cinematic was absolutely perfect, and the definition of High Quality! I think this is your Best work Shad, and arguably some of the best of the Lawl Community! Total Masterpiece, and Is one of the Best Videos I have seen from this community. This is an easy example for why the Lawl Community is Amazing. Great Job! This went above and beyond in terms of quality and I love it! I’m VERY excited for what to come for Beatdown! Easy 11/10.
Holy shit. The road was long, but goddamn if it wasn't worth it. This is the best video you've made so far. From the fights, to the bosses, to the game intro. And while I have no idea who Blockhead is, it does make me happy that Dio is a playable character. Here's to more videos like this in the future.
shadbad...this..this left me utterally speechless. every single frame is a masterpeice, i cn really tell just how much time went into this and it more than payed off, from the moving camera, to all the new normals shown off,and even saying how good thoes are doesn't do it justice (even small details like how ed yells "dash" when he dashes). dare i say it, THIS is you magnomopas right here!
the near ending bits are what got me the most though with Edds rival being announced (even if i don't know who he is) and &#*@INF DIO ANNOUNCED AS PLAYABLE!! I couldn't be any happier to see him in as a jojo fan!! probably the the fighter i'm the 2nd most hyped for out of all the undone ones. (plus the two bosses, god danm thoes were just pure gold with Butch and Zanta who fits right in as a boss comared to a fighter!) but best of all....that intro...that was...that was just so beautiful..my jaw dropped at it. i loved every last second of it, nothing can repeliate the joy i felt watching this whole video, there's no need to thank us shadbad..thank YOU for not only inspiring so many lawlers,leaving an impact on this community,but most important of all, bringing us amazing work that has nothing but love and passion put into it. it's been an amazning 5 years.
Here's to both a new year, and a BIG future for Lawl Beatdown!!
In the wiki one character with moveset in the future is dio
God...this was absolutely beautiful...well done Shadbad88 you never cease to amaze. I'm exited for what is to come in the future.
I think i have a new favorite Classic Mode.
The wait was Indeed worth it, because not only do we get to see every battle from start to finish, there is so much content and so much detail put into everything. The animation is more smooth than ever, we get to see the alternative outcomes of the losing participants, every elevator has its own sign, we have a post ending battle with Edduardo, and even the dialogues still feel true to every character. And that new full intro.....is just so beautiful.
I may copy paste what i said on previous Eddsworld movesets but i mean it when i Say it: Edd Gould would be proud. Kudos to You, sir.
The wait was worth it. i have a hard time expressing my thoughts so i’ll just list em down
1. i loved seeing how all the fights were animated and choreographed i guess you can say. i was really at the edge of my seat with some of the fights like Zanta and thats an accomplishment
2. the Butch Hartman miniboss was really funny! didnt expect that. when edd finally defeated him i thought to myself “is he gonna fall down the screen like in Mario?” and sure enough he did. amazing
3. soo excited seeing all the upcoming characters like DIO. that short charge up special with The World was pretty interesting and i hope to see more
4. You really nailed the videogame feel! i liked how you added a “press hold to skip cutscene” text during the classic mode intro that was really cool + choosing which character you can fight really makes me think of the different possibilities (if only this were a real game)
and lil side note i liked how you used John and Karkat’s Pesterquest sprites i just think thats neat
overall great video dude. keep doing what you love
Oh my goodness, this was so incredibly amazing.
Where do I even start?
The transitions between battles is great; I love how you pick a door to enter.
The pre-battle and post-battle dialogue was wonderful and very charming.
I love that we get to see actual “game”play happening!
That part in the middle where you get to choose a minigame is brilliant-and I did NOT expect Butch Hartman as a boss.
The final battle where he fought Blockhead, DIO, and Zanta was frickin’ great.
And I was personally filled with absolute delight when you used Pump It for the fight against the Thwomps.
Plus, that ending cinematic for the route. Loved it.
Plus plus, Eduardo coming in by surprise after the end. Loved that too.
Plus plus plus, that OPENING cinematic at the end of the video. Absolutely divine.
Incredible video all around, and I’m super-excited for what’s to come.
i’ve seen the eddsworld movesets and i just got to this video and you’re telling me this isn’t an actual game i could play?? dudeee i spent almost an entire year thinking this was playable until i actually looked it up xD it’s such a creative series
Damn, this thing animated like a well oiled machine. Words cannot describe how welldone this was. This might actually be one of the greatest pieces of Lawl Media I've seen thus far. Watching this reminded me of why I love Lawl in the first place and why I still hold this community close to my heart. Seriously, the bosses, the animation, everything about this is so good. The sequence at the end was the just the cherry on top and makes me so excited for what's to come for this lawl.
Man, This is Awesome!
The Fights, The Reveal For Some New Fighters, The Fights, Bosses, End Credits, Did I Mention the Fights Yet?, & The Cutscene At the End of it all!
Absolutely Beautiful! This was Worth the Wait, Amazing Job On This. Congrats again on 5 Years & Looking Forward To Some of these “New” (Technically Only One is Revealed to be Classified, New Reveal But Still) Fighters! :D
Dude I’m proud to see we’re you came from a small lawl series to a full fledge game to this. This video made me gush on the amount of fan services that was brought in (especially with Butch Hartman) the credits almost getting emotional at one point, I’m proud to see how far your Channel has grown and I hope it grows even more! Edit: I saw the ending and a pure smile was put on my face
my favorite lawl video you've made so far, Shad. it was a long wait, but atleast it was all worth it. and hy, maybe now you should take time with your next moveset, because that's what makes a good lawl, time. so good luck with your future plans, man :3
I shall compress all my comments into one
This is masterfully edited, amazing work, you've definitely earned all the compliment the other comments dropped
In response to the section of the disclaimer about the potential with the lawl game in the future, it's technically already possible to make Lawl characters a reality via the Rivals of Aether steam workshop, and honestly I'm surprised I haven't seen many Lawl characters on there.
Butch spending his entire battle giving a self indulgent speech is actually hilarious
Woah a whole new character
Woah, TWO whole new characters
That opening at the end was absolutely breathtaking and I couldn't ask for anything better
There's also that Lawl Demic Guy who is making an actual Lawl game that'll also have mod support, but I haven't heard from him for a little while
The bit at the end with Lifelight nearly had me crying, it was so amazing.
This entire video was well worth the wait.
Edd: Can I call you Darla? :3
Dio: YOU DARE MORK ME?!?!?
10/10 best conversation ever
8:31 BLOCKHEAD?!?!?! THAT'S INSANE!! I WAS GOING TO PUT HIM IN MY LAWL ASWELL!!
incredible stuff! and that trailer at the end was godlike.
The amount of effort put into this classic mode is amazing. This is very well made. It really shows how much you have improve with not only your Lawl animations, but your editing skills as well. Great work!
Dude, this has a lot of potential coming from just an animated series. Hopefully we get more content like this in the future!
Holy crap! That was an amazing experience! I think I speak for all of us when I say that this was definitely and undoubtedly worth the wait.
I had no idea who Blockhead was at the time of first watching this, but since then, I checked out his source material on TH-cam, and I'll say he is pretty funny. I look forward to seeing what you end up doing with him. And I'm DEFINITELY glad to see that DIO is gonna be playable too! Happy Dio Day, everybody!
Also, that intro. Oh mama, that fricking intro! That was just as amazing as the Classic Mode itself! It was nice to see more surprise bosses added in like Cinder (even though I hate her) and Flowey. And let's not forget about the legendary Butch Hartman! :P
And also, I have a feeling those silhouettes with Ruby were other characters from RWBY. I could've sworn the silhouette next to her was Yang. And I could be wrong, but I think the one next to her could be Blake with her short hair. (Although I prefer her with long hair) Couldn't tell if Weiss was among the silhouettes though. Honestly, I really hope it is. We can't have Ruby without the rest of her team. IMO, no one can replace Team RWBY. Besides, you managed to make amazing movesets of all 4 members of the Eddsworld crew, so I don't see why you can't do the same thing with all 4 members of Team RWBY as well. Also... fricking Loki's in this too?! 😮
Either way, I'm hyped as ever for more Beatdown goodness!
Shad, God bless you!
This video reminded me why I love Lawl. Stellar work right here m8 👍
Butch Harrman as a boss...
*AMAZING!*
Shad, this is one of the most awesomest things I ever watched! You definitely did fantastic and you definitely deserve a break for all your hard work! Great job! 😁👍
Shad that was the greatest Classic Mode for Edd ever hands down the best I've ever seen and the lore and everything was amazing too I even was surprised on everything from the fights and everything else you did I'm just so surprised on the bosses from Butch Hartman to Zanta Claws and DIO was amazing to I love the references to even the details you did and I love the new Beatdown Logo It's so awesome 💯 and Edd's rival being Blockhead was something too Shad I was surprised by that. I can't wait to see more amazing things coming to Beatdown and what's in store for the Lore of Beatdown +ShadBad88 Awesome Job on Classic Mode as well as everything else and I can't wait what's more to come in Lawl Beatdown 👊
I know this not a real game but I think this would be a great fan game it has a wonderful cast of characters and would be so cool to play it
Love it! I wanna see more of this! Maybe with a different character next time? Your choice on who that character will be.
This was so awesome! I can't wait to see the amazing stuff you'll complete in the future! Keep up the good work! :D
god this was phenomenal
the amount of detail with every aspect of this is frankly, completely bonkers
the character interactions are, as usual, top notch
and holy fuck that ending had me squealing for more reasons then one
also the butch Hartman boss had me basically dying of laughter, like I had to pause for a second just so I didn't miss any details during the fight itself
beautiful, just beautiful everything, the classic mode, the intro, really nice
hot damn that was wonderful. the video was great, and it feels like a great journey is about to begin.
God i love this so much and hope you have a awsome year. Uw0
Everybody talking about Ultimate: Darn, Shadbad88 is talanted with Smash Bros. (Pacing, Blockhead, The Butch, Dio being playable, SSBU styled intro)
Me: Anybody forgot that Shadbad LITERALLY made a new logo?! That is aweshum! (Intentional Reference) A year is gone, but that year of waiting has brought us to this masterpiece. This makes me hopeful to see more of your movesets! (It makes me wonder if that fist would be a part of the hud though...)
Anyway, I hope you'll be ok after that work. (Good thing you're taking the break though... That looked stressful.)
OH MY GOD THAT WAS AMAZING! ALSO THE END THAT WAS SO COOL!!
Secret battle cutscene:
Tom: Can't believe Eduardo tried to ruin our lifetime Cola.
Matt: Same. Good thing he didn't ruin my face.
Edd: This is a life.
???: Aren't you quite the adventurer.
Edd: That voice... It sounds like...
Tord: You thought Eduardo worked alone?
This was amazing this is the most amazing Smash Bros. Lawl Classic I have ever seen Bravo man Bra Fn Vo a applaud you good sir can’t wait to see what you come up with next. 😉👍🏻 #Smashbroslawlbeatdown #Smashbroslawl #Lawlforever
This was amazing and definitely worth the wait!
5:55
Back to the Abyss with the Live action movies and Paramount+ Series
Shad promote your self from bad to dad cause dam you delivered
I loved every detail you put into this
From the multiple options like this was a videogame
To the multiple bosses
To the menu
To marks updates sprites
To strong bads up B sprite being fixed
To edd literally saying ‘dash’ every time he runs, just wow-
This was all together edd-cellent and I’m sure if edd was here today he’d be proud
That intro and new logo was splendid, that better be its own upload lol
Don’t know who blockhead is but hey someone’s happy
My favourite thing gotta be that camera work, I don’t how you do it but you make it fit perfectly, you gotta share ya talents 🥺
Whatever you do after this wether it’s a new moveset, another lawl lore game or hell even Reyns toast your appreciated for it
From the intro I see we have more characters to come and we’re all for it
Your animating and editing has ascended to godly levels that I would honestly love to see updates from old stuff you made like final smash for characters like strong bad and mark
Honestly you did a amazing job
And finally thanks for giving the world another spin, for both edd and smash
Edd is top tier in the meta.
This was worth the wait and then some
Tom just drowning in the end in all the gold is really funny.
This is so freakin cool!
5:05 The Boss Fight we never asked for yet were glad it existed
La mejor cosa que he visto desde que conoci a este canal como en animación y bueno en todo
TF2 Demoman Apears:
TF2 Demoman: What Did I Miss...
Edd: I Think You Need Cola...
TF2 Demoman: Nah...
Im just speechless, this is amazing
18:20 The animation on that silhouette in the back there was a little bit... Low-key (wink wink).
Looking forward to the inevitable betrayal there
@@mabelpines2783 I wonder if a certain God of Thunder will show up..? 😉
He's also one of the characters in the Empty Slot 2 currently so I feel like it's pretty obvious he's coming
Man. That was an experience.
The butch appearance made me shit myself.
This lawl keeps getting better and better...
and the best ive seen from it
2:59
Ah yes, the battle of 2 legendary youtubers
thanks youtube very cool for that spoiler preview gif when you hover over the thumbnail
that besides this was really damn good but like damn
the ending cinematic was great you didnt have to go the extra mile and yet you did
I totally forgot about this project, but im glad remembered it
I really don't know what to say dude lmao. That was awesome and I think I need to watch it like three more times at least tonight.
Also the sleuth in me is ecstatic to see all these new silhouettes and I hope to see other people making guesses to who all is here and what other blink and you miss it stuff you hid in here (especially that world of light sequence, just so much going on there alone lmfao) I'm open to discussion in the replies.
What else.... uh did not expect the surprise appearance of Butch Hartman lmfao. That was very funny and also particularly well animated as a boss fight. I hope he works with DIO in the story mode
I feel like as I watch this more I will just have more questions but I'll try not to ask too many cause I'm sure there's a lot of surprises you want to keep.
Looking forward to the supplemental video in the near future! It may be bold to say but I think at this point you've surpassed the original lawl in terms of both scale and quality, and I feel pretty confident in that statement. I'm very invested and hope to see plenty more from you in 2022. Especially excited for that new empty slot.
I am having pretty shit luck with most of the silhouettes HOWEVER I can unmistakingly see that Loki is there, which if correct, is hype as FUCK.
Again, if anyone wants to speculate with me, that'd be great lol. There's about 20 and I haven't much clue. (Which means theres like 55 fighters total on the roster right now, all of the revealed ones + dio + the heavily teased mr dink + paul as gary's echo. Might be 56, cause I feel like there's some hint's the batter's monster form might be an echo, judging by how he appeared with chara/frisk, darkiplier and ellen) There's someone with a wizard hat in the back who might be Taako, but that's just a guess based on how Shad has expressed a fondness for the Adventure Zone.
Is the person to the immediate left of Vriska's wing.... Popeye? Also the person/people on vriska's right confused me for a little bit due to the weird proportions, but I think it might actually be Neil Cicierega, holding a Potter Puppet Pal? It looks like someone holding a puppet anyways.
ok so i'll speculate with you here.
1. first off, i would agree that two of them is definently Loki and Mr Dink but the others..well yeah, it's tricky. however, they might not all be fighters. i was looking in the trophy section on the wiki, i think i found out 3/4 from the ruby rose section of it. thoes being Cinder Fall,Qrow Barwen,and general Ironwood. i MAYBE also see another jojo charcter? i say that given how there is a massive character behind him that could be a stand. (i'd say either Jotaro or Josuke though it looks a bit more like Josuke)
2. looking at the near end, i noticed the staticy sillouette of the Dimonds from Steven Universe though they might just be bosses (since i really don't know how they would work as fighters)
3. i don't fully get why the Monster version of Batter is in the part with the echos given how he's confirmed to be an Alt but i guess we'll just have to see.
@@ryderwilliams5691 I'm not sure the people with RWBY are those other RWBY characters (although i think the one right next to ruby could possibly be Yang, just because of the little tuft of hair that seems to match). Cinder Fall also seems to be one of the bosses of classic mode, based on the quick montage with trogdor, flowey and beck noir. And being an antagonist, I doubt she'd be working with Ruby anyways, as seen in the shot in the trailer.
I also saw White Diamond near the end, along with Lord English from Homestuck. I assume those are gonna be bosses that pop up in a story mode or somthing like that.
At what time and place do you think you saw the potential Jojo character?
It's pretty tricky though. A lot of the silhouettes are very weird shapes to me. Especially with them all standing next to eachother, I dont always know where one starts and where one ends. Hopefully he'll upload the making of doc soon and maybe all the silhouettes will be there for easier guessing.
@@mabelpines2783 thank you for clarifying that since I'm not at all a RWBY fan, I just saw the trothies and thought they looked similar. Also I saw the JoJo rep at 18:23 in the very right corner
This would make a good flash game tho
Really would, like it genuinely seems fun
say it loud with me bois "TOM IS DROWNING IN A POOL OF GOLD!!!!"
wow that world of light fight at the end there was really something
THAT WAS AWESOME!
This was amazing
AWESOME MAN🤩
Please let there be a subspace emissary of this!
...so if you're playing as a villain, do you fight Ozpin instead of DIO?
Man, I WISH this was real, I'd main Edd!
If Edd and the gang aren't In the next smash bros game, we riot
I miss this series so much!
Recognized the top left guy at 18:21
LOKI
You included mah main boi, Dan. Y E S!!!
THE BUTCH IS A FRICKING BOSS 😂
i need to know how you make this stuff
I'm pretty sure they use Videopad, if that helps
The silhouettes near the end other fighters?
I’m been a fan of this series ever since 2017 or 2018
I feel like such a dork for knowing what the Noog Tube is
