- Grog finds deck of many things and Laura Bailey breaks character. I can't believe Vex almost stops him from destroying the deck! It has consequences :)

Laura yelling "Travis!" Was so funny at the time because they were usually pretty good at not metagaming and staying in character. Great moment of personality haha.
That was the point she was giving her husband shit and not Grog haha
And then campaign 2 happened lol
@GusJenkinsElite 3 they break immersion alot but its fun. So far little metagaming season 3 ep 60
@@darvariusvanavar1049 They definitely hit their stride of "my character failing at a roll isn't the end of the world" in c3. Most of early c2 is tough to watch because Matt has to spend so much time on stupid shit they can't *let go*
@@GusJenkinsElite I love Laura... but ya it was annoying.
Travis said later on that at the time he didn't know what The Deck of Many things was. He legitimately thought it was just a pointless deck of cards.
Can tell that laura and liam knew what it was and laura just had to stop travis from throwing it away as Travis would think about what laura has to say.
Imagine if he had just pulled all of them out at once to look at them all.
I’d 100% do that and cause a fucking apocalyptic event in at least 3 planes on accident cause I’m fuckin dumb.
It couldn't have gone to a better character.
@@pixelqube3274 I think Taliesin knew as well.
@@Spark_Chaser I'd assume Taliesin knew!
Grog immediately throwing the deck of many things into lava would have been the most in-character moment of the campaign for sure.
Matt: Here is a Deck of Many Things
Travis: That sign can't stop me because I can't read!
Was sipping coffee when I read this. Pretty good 😂.
Laura: Fear. Uncertainty. Dread.
Travis: does the right thi-
Laura:Greed. Desire. And control.
No! Don't pull one! It could kill us all..... What are you DOING?! Don't get rid of it.
I love how he looks at her half as Travis half as grog
"As a dumb barbarian I wanna throw this in the lava, as a married man, I don't want to sleep in the couch..."
@@pamsp Pretty much, that sums it up 😂🎲
The day that everyone metagamed to prevent a tragedy.
_Draws card that destroys the universe._
"I'd like to make a persuasion check. Please?"
*What for?*
"I would like to convince the cosmos that is, in fact, *NOT* my card."
I could see Travis doing this word for word
If a player were to do this, along with other related puns, I would allow it with a very high DC
Can we all take a moment and appreciate this opportunity? He was THIS close to throwing the deck in the lava.
That means no deck of many things. No search for grog, thus no search for bob and no wedding cerimony oneshot.
Liev'Tell, Sir Bertam Bell, Scanlans wish... all gone.
The Bells Hells would never have met Bertram and their name would not have been that. That poor drunkard would never have been lord of the quadroads.
Grog and Scanlan would not have messed with the guards, looking for him...
All of that would never have been if vex, i'm sorry, LAURA had not stopped him.
Better than poetry !
I just love how excited Liam got. Being a veteran DnD player, he KNOWS the chaos that could be unleashed.
Wasn't the wedding episode happened because they put it as a Kickstarter goal?
@@Blue_Lunacy no, the wedding episode was because they used their engagement/wedding rings and the diamonds in them, to revive the people who died in the search for grog
@@peteralexandergraae2830 In-game, time wise, Search For Grog happened right after the denouement of C1E115. So it covered the day of and a few days after C1E115. Dalen's Closet happened about one year after C1.
This should be in Vox Machina Anime. As Liam said, Laura just popped out and questions Grog HAHAHAHAHHA
There's an enchanted mirror or statue in the horde that animates just to shout at him.
🗽”GROG NO.”
🧔♂️”wot? Its just cards.”
🧝”Grog, who are you talking to?”
The funniest part is that for the most part they’re always in character, and I think this is the first time I’ve ever actually seen her break *this* bad 😂😂
not an anime, but yeah XD
It would be hilarious if it just cuts to them in live action in the recording booth. Like "yes, this deck of cards is like the most powerful item in DnD, and he was gonna throw it in the lava. Sorry. Back to the show."
I love how Travis didnt even know what the cards were and immedialy went "yeet"
Travis not knowing what he found is golden
It's the fact that Laura broke character, but Travis responded in-character that really gets me
Schrodinger's Laura. Doesn't want the deck destroyed, doesn't want to pull any cards. 😂
I love how everyone has this face of fear and apprehension, but Sam. Sam's just excited
He’s all for the chaos 😂
How I want this scene to go in the cartoon:
Grog picks up the pack, opens it, and cards fall into his hand. “I dunno what this is, but there isn’t even enough cards to make one deck. What type of cards are these?”
As soon as he says one, a glow crosses over the cards. He picks up one card, he sees the face, and the magic sword appears in its place.
Vex: “Grog. What just happened?”
Grog: “nothing!” He says it too quickly, and as he tried to hide the sword the cards fall right between her feet.
I love Pat Rothfuss just listening to the drama 🤣
No wonder the Doors of Stones is taking so long to publish...
Omg, they all look so young, and now I remember that I was a bit younger too 😢
Love how grog found this don't think this find would have worked with another character 😅😅
This is literally the scene that got me into Critical Role and D&D. Travis Willingham as Grog is my favorite of all time.
I love the idea of Laura manifesting in front of Grog going "oh travis!" And Grog's just confused and goes "whooo?" *grog voice* lol
seeing a clip of this many years ago made me start watching critical role... I've just caught up to live
This scene is missing from the animated series... Grog finding the deck of many things and Laura manifesting out of thin air... totally should have been included
We're not there yet unless season 3 appeared out of somewhere?
Not even there yet man slow down
As far as the animated series of LoVM goes we are only up to around episode 55 of CR. So there’s quite some time yet before we get to the point of this particular point in the campaign. As far as S3 goes I think we might be getting S1 of MN before we get the continuation of LoVM. We have yet to have any information on S3
@@inkybunniegaming8612This is bullshit- if you don’t have the resources to get both projects going at the same time, you oughtta finish what you started. Wtf. I’m sure the new should would be amazing but who the fk wants to wait another 1-2 years for S3 of VM just to get a new show on? I’d rather them fishing the VM before moving on. 😭
@@Yenaldooshi138 that’s fair. It’s ultimately speculation. Either way LoVM is only up to the slaying of Umbrasyl. This clip is after slaying of Thordak…specifically C1E81
“I’m trying to find something useful!” He says as he’s about to yeet one of the most powerful in game items into the fucking lava because “Who the hell uses playing cards anyway.” 😂😂
I mean... powerful AND dangerous, even though Matt alleviated the deck and skewed it towards the players, it still held the Void :')
I love during the year break and a drunk he was Experimenting on pulls the most powerful card out of the deck and gets three wishes
Grog killed almost everyone, broke out of a pocket dimension, nearly died multiple times, was targeted almost the whole time, barely escaped plane shift, then died in the most spectacular 1 on 1 with a magic caster. Grog is the definition of a hero 😂
The deck of many things is my groups favorite magic item. We once all drew 5 cards all 5 of us. 3 survived and the outcome changed the whole game as they owned like 4 keeps and all sorts of crazy good stuff. Myself and another had to make new characters but it was worth it.
To clarify, we drew 25 cards of the 52 card deck.
Matt: So, here is a (alleviated) Deck of Many Things.
Grog: Deck of cards? Huh. Chuck it into lava.
Laura: NAOOOH!
Grog: ...Okay. So I keep it.
Vex: Uuuuuhn, okay. But pinkie swear you don't use it.
Much later, Laura: OH MY GOD WHY IS GROG HOLDING... STILL HOLDING THE DECK?!
Critters: You do realize that this man was _this close_ to not make this deck an issue, and you were the one that stopped it, don't you? :')
(/lh, with much love)
I love that Travis really didn't know about the Deck of Many Things until later on, so this was all so genuine 😂
"Travis, you could destroy the world...I'm so excited." ROFLMAO!
'What are you even doing?' 🎉 😂 ❤
I think this bit should be in the animated series LOL! Just Laura out of nowhere telling Grog no!
Travis, as a player, is the archetypal „what’s this big red button do?“ person. Add in Grog‘s persona and it would be almost totally illogical for him to put the cards away if his own volition 😂
The scene that launched two one-shots.
Travis eatting the stone and gagging it back up was to funny 😂
"Wait about 8 hours" lol
you know, i just now realized, how did Travis not figure out these cards were something special with the way laura was freaking out as matt said what he had found? the whole table was basically like 'oh my god! yes!' and travis still thought they were regular cards
No he didnt lol, he was just roleplaying as someone who didnt know
back in the day, decks of many things were in every campaign or con adventure. One DM introduced a Deck of Many Bad Things. . . .
She is so flip floppy... she didn't want him to destroy it but didn't want him to ise it lol.
Never pull from a deck of magic cards in D&D. Ive heard their are cards that can make u have a super powerful ability. AND one card that is common is u being trapped forever in crystal 🔮 or sent into a void of darkness. Basically, BAD ENDing stuff is common.
It balances out with really good stuff too. The problem is, it's 100% random. Draw Moon, get three Wish spells, think "Damn that was cool", draw again, get fucking Void, boom, gone.
Nah, don’t be a coward. Jokes ofc but the deck has its place. One shots can be made with the shenanigans of this.
They did that. It's call the search for Grog. Watch it!!!
Is that Patrick Rothfuss?!?!
Yes, he guested them a couple of times.
And that’s why Travis is the best!
I swear to the Traveler, if this scene is not in The Legend of Vox Machina with a tiny animated Laura Bailey popping up on Grogs shoulder, I'm gonna riot.
And this was the moment that he became addicted
Later: later talk
suddenly: patrick rolfus
Gonna have to watch your first campaign ❤ vox machina was amazing:')
Is that Patrick Rothfuss??? Which episode/campaign is this from?!
yes it is! episode 81 of campaign one
@@cornmaized thank you!
The OG campaign, ie.,The Best One.
Of course Matt put the deck of many things in a game 😂
Meanwhile "a look from Pike" does it all and Luara Bailey needs to manifest
My partner found that shit and she got some good draws. She pulled the one that dropped a shit ton of money, and then she pulled one that gives you a keep/fort to live in so long as you can clear out the shit living in it. I got ballsy and pulled one, and i got lucky and it was the one that increased stats. After that I was DONE & wanted nothing more to do with the Deck of Many Fucks!
dammit rothfuss, you better finish that book series
If this isnt animated in the series ill riot
Laura bitches to Travis about him wanting to throw the Deck of Many Things into the lava, but then says he shouldn't draw from it as bad things can happen. Make up your mind Laura!!!
Is that Patrick Rothfus??
Okay fine, I’ll finally watch Critical Roll.
Is that Patrick Rothfuss?
Yes, he has guested a few times.
Is that Patrick Rothfuss????
I want to see this animated.
That deck is the reason Dragons don't exist anymore in my campaign
Redhead is hella cute. 😳
That would be Marisha Ray, Matthew Mercer's wife. IE The DM
@@StraightKnots Not MY DM. 🤪
@@chriswilson7211 she can probably kick your arse though. She is the aggressive and he the gentle, in that relationship.
Personally I prefer Laura, but they are all extremely charismatic people. Felicia Day's idea of having them play on stream was pure genius.
Laura Bailey metagaming. What a shocker.
Only 13 cards? Id call that the deck of few things. XD.
Grand poobah!!
If everyone is so scared of the deck of many things and are metagaming their fear then they should meta game it and let Grog thow it away cause he doesn't know what it is!
Travis enjoys playing dumb so much it’s hilarious… have to admit playing a dumb barbarian with ridiculous strength is kinda fun even in computer D&D based games.
The irony is that they didn’t want him to destroy it but they also didn’t want him to use it 🤷♂️ so what was he supposed to do?🥴
Laura and Travis are married, pretty cool
The metagaming was strong with them that day.
Oh wow his voice is a bit more Engl-ish in this than on the animated series.
His voice makes me weak
Sadly this was the 1st thing i watched from Critical Role... "Wtf is this metagaming shit" was my reaction and I did not go back for almost 2 years. I am happy I came back to it. They are amazing! 🥰
Big red button
So, if pulling a card out of the deck causes the bad thing, why does grabbing the deck, which is pulling all of the cards at once from their place not do a nasty? It would be a heads up! And if some cards are bad and others descent, it make the deck either immediately alluring or terrifying. Or, does it require one actually SEE the card for it to activate? Wouldn't that make playing 52 card pick up with your enemy an apocalyptic event against the BBEG?
You have to announce beforehand how many cards you draw, otherwise they have no effect
PLEASE! METRIC UNITS!
That when they made the seating chart now, so travis wont get controled by luara
Wow the CR ladies are still getting hate? It's a game they play with their friends and got lucky they could expand into a company. They can break character and interact if they want - they're friends and it's hilarious. It shouldn't be taken so seriously. The guys are lucky. They never get called out if they metagame.
That is not true, Liam got a lot in VM.
Where do you see "hate" though? I saw none in the 50 or so comments I have looked at till now.
Edit, I found one comment further down.
@@PalleRasmussen You're right - I should not have used the absolute word "never". I will amend to "they are less likely to get called out if they metagame". I'm glad that they don't and I hope the audience will soon give the women the same grace.
@@PalleRasmussen And if you keep scrolling, you'll see some harsh comments directed toward Laura calling her controlling amongst other things. It just sucks to read unkind things when all they are trying to do is have fun and it disproportionately affects the women. To be clear, I get irritated when it is directed at any of the cast. I love all the nerdy ass voice actors.
@@laurac2556 well, to be fair, Laura is sometimes, perhaps not controlling, but she does have a large personality. Which is fine, for she is also effervescent and kind and sweet. And it is not okay to be harsh on her. I am just not as sure as you that her and Marisha gets treated worse than Liam, any longer, but perhaps. And perhaps my perspective and understanding is different because I am an aging white man in Denmark- where things are different- who does not care about anything in a person than their character.
Wanna know how I know Travis does drugs.... this
I swear to god some of you need to chill out. who actually cares that this action would have been in character for grog? are you seriously expecting us to believe that any of you would have sat back and watched one of your party destroy a potent magical artifact on the basis of is 'being in character'? immersion Is great until you are actively making the campaign and game harder for everyone else and there are absolutely situations that will get you yelled at by the rest of your friends regardless of if it was 'in character'.
This. Especially when Travis didn't know what he was dealing with
All of them Meta-gaming right there!
None of them make an "Arcana" or "intelligence" roll to know if they know anything about the "Deck of many things" to justify trying to stop Grog from doing anything.
Well tbf, she speaks to Travis, not Grog. And I feel like you should be allowed to talk over the table, especially when it's about one of the most powerful items in-game and he clearly doesn't know
@@inawinchester unfortunately people feel entitled to controlling their entertainment, so instead of taking this moment as it is and enjoying the humor, they bend out of shape and complain because “meta-gaming ruins the experience”. as if CR has a strict script to follow through. none of CRs metagaming moments would be problems if they weren’t streamed online
I don't get how this is metagaming. Someone who is obviously going to destroy some loot when no one else has had a chance to look at it is definitely in character. Especially Grog who isn't the smartest one in the bunch.
Yeah, Laura did use his real name as well as Liam but I see it as just on the spot reaction
Any serana fans in the comments?
ahhh yes, the classic metagaming players.
who the fuck is Travis
The most meta-gaming part in all of Critical Role.
And I still have to say, it was kinda fun.
But honestly people, don't Meta-Game. If you have someone on the table to doesn't know the Deck of Many things, just, relax, and enjoy the potential chaos.
Or ask for a arcana-check to "figure out" what it is.
This is funny and all, but it always kinda bugged me how hard they metagamed this section.
I think she was just shocked that he was about to destroy something so valuable. not everyone can stay in character all the time, especially when someone really does something stupidly unexpected
@jamesherb4384 but was it REALLY unexpected of grog lol
Patrick Rothfuss is in this? Nevermind, pass.
That was one thing that I didn’t like about campaign 1. Laura was always so pushy and controlling about loot. Broke character constantly for it.
Never understood Kelith hate though.
Kelith hate was because Marisha is an attention seeking, narcissist that cheats constantly and metagames.
Her character was a shy druid that cares about the earth and lived away from society all her life.
But suddenly she is completely fine taking centre stage constantly as she lies and kills people, sets multiple things on fire destroying the earth she supposedly loves.
Makes terrible decisions like permanently walling in guards so their trapped and will starve to death without a second thought.
Attacking and trying to banish and not help a paladin that spent almost a month been tortured and SA by dwarves. Siding with a mind flyer that she metagamed to know what mind flayers are and knew how evil they are!
To name just a few reasons for the hate.
Marisha is only there because of her relationship with Matt and she ruins almost every game she joins on the channel. Candela was another great example of that
Had some of the best role-players at the table, and she constantly broke character to get more attention on her, ruining multiple key story points and character development.
@@gartan8449 Jeesh, someone wasnt loved as a child.
@@wolfheardt4169 You might be right. Could be why she tries so hard to get attention.
Usually the simplest answer is the correct one after all.
@@gartan8449 I was talking about you, you psycho
@@gartan8449lol, okay, pal.
All you need to know to show you why not to play DND
Laura bailey was really controlling in campaign 1. Im glad she simmered down.
Probably one of the worst forms of meta gaming everrr. Ruined the whole episode tbh. Like I understand you all knew it but know only did they ruin the fun for Travis Laura unfairly took it from him. Sure she gave it back after the outrage lol. Doesn’t counts giving it back if someone one forced you to
Im sorry but i hate this scene because of Laura. She gets upset that he tries to throw the deck away and stops him. Then gets scared when he uses the carda she stopped him from getting rid of and then steals them. She interrupted his RP to stop him from destroying something he never wanted but she did. Im sorry but pick a lane woman.
Another example of Travis been one of the only people at the table that knows how to role-play and play the game the right way. Laura breaking character as she metagames yet again is so pathetic, and it's sad that Matt didn't tell her and the rest as they joined in to shut up.
Grog 1000% would have thrown them away and the only reason they didn't is due to cheating bs.
When the least intelligent character is the smartest in the room then the others should shut up and try and learn from them.
Matt's stories and Travis and Sam been such great players are the main reason this channel exists. It could have become the best dnd channel of all time if the other players didn't metagame, cheat, fudge dice rolls, make decisions their characters wouldn't to avoid taking damage, be unable to role-play and stay in character.
It could have been such a phenomenon. Instead it only appeals to a niche audience instead of the mainstream it could have reached.
Bruh calm down. Lol you're getting upset over make believe.
@@shortnsweet5325 Make believe?
These are real people...what are you talking about?
Are you ok?
Do you know where you are?
Or what day it is?
I'm genuinely worried about your well being and your sense of reality.
@@gartan8449 I'm honestly thinking the same thing about you. These are adults playing DnD the story is not reality. You're freaking out over a game you're not even apart of or personally effected by. If they had a problem they can handle it between themselves. They've been playing for years.
@@shortnsweet5325 You live an extremely sheltered life if you think that bringing up things about a video in the comment section like your meant to...is freaking out.
Wow. Your a perfect example of the niche market this channel has attracted instead of doing better and going mainstream.
People on the spectrum are very difficult to talk to, you just don't really understand things very well and it's exhausting been around people like you.
Why are you out here shitting on all of the players? You’re getting super upset and making assumptions about people you literally do not know in real life, like calling Marisha a narcissist who’s only there bc of Matt? She’s an accomplished voice actor with her own successful career. Stop projecting your own issues onto random internet strangers & maybe try some therapy lol
