Because I compiled them more or less in ascending order of my art style because it’s more of the growth of my channel and my uploads than wanting it to be in chronological order
I LOVE Matt’s stance during the Intimidation of the woods, that is the most “Please try it” expression I have ever seen and I want it for a DM Screen center section thing.
32:10 - I love the feels you have as Kyleth and Villya are reunited after so long, especially since Kiki wasn't sure if her mom was alive or not, and for Matt to bring her back in Campaign 2 for the Mighty Nein to save her... brilliant!
Man, I love Calliope's cry of "CADUCEUS!!!" after what Caduceus did! Matt nailed that perfect to show her frustration at the fact she got played by Caduceus so well!
For those of you who don't actually know, "fluffernutters" are an actual thing. It's a common name used in the New England region of the USA for a peanut butter and fluff (basically molten marshmellow) sandwich. As a proud Mainer, my childhood lunch was never complete without a fluffernutter. PB&Fluff sandwich with humpty dumpty BBQ chips and an ice cold Moxie. Truly an excellent lunch, even as an adult.
In terms of Fjord headbutts a Crystal, sometimes I wonder if Travis knew what he was doing when he thought his plan was gonna work before Matt informed him of how Armor of Agathus works... XD
Good point. To be fair, in the moment and adrenaline of acting out stuff, perhaps he just forgot (cuz I space out like him a lot during sessions and I forget things that happened literally seconds ago)
@@SpywisMindPalaceAnimations So true, and I know from stuff I've seen from Campaign 1 that he would be like that a lot of times as Grog, even though Fjord's more of a thinker than Grog is.
I think maybe I know what he was thinking. Armour of Agathys deals cold damage whenever you take damage, so he cast it once to activate the first orb then rushed over to the second thinking "Okay so I need to deal damage to myself somehow to activate the armours effect" Totally neglecting to realize that the first orb ABSORBED the spell so he wasnt wearing the armour anymore.
Lol their hairstyles changed so much while drawing them that it was hard for me to keep them consistent. This was back when I was pumping these videos out every two weeks or so, lol.
Regarding Jester's hag trick, my DM would have made me roll initiative the moment a spell was cast. "They don't know what spell you are casting, and you both are there obviously in roles potentially antagonistic to each other, so she's watching you for signs of trouble". He has stated adamantly he will NEVER let us get a spell off outside of combat without giving everyone else a chance to notice it and possibly do something about it before it happens. I can't imagine how much less epic Jester's moment would be if CR had such a buzzkill DM as that. To be clear, Matt did it right. It is the DM's job to facilitate the game in a way that fun for everyone. I'm just lamenting my lack of options that I'm stuck with such a buzzkill DM.
See, I'm of the same opinion as a DM, I always tell my players, treat casting a spell like you're doing an anime power attack, like the spell is the Kamehameha, you say something (doesn't actually have to be the name of the attack), loudly and clearly, if it has somatic gestures, they are precise movement, that can be seen from a distance. That said regardless of the initiative rolls, the spell goes off first, and if they fail on something like a modify memory roll that could prevent the fight. I might have some characters who are particularly paranoid, get a chance to throw out counterspell if they have it, but only if they win their ahead of the caster in intative.
@@alexandercross9081 see though, that would render spells like modify memory basically useless. There are spells that clearly aren't combat spells or intended to initiate combat, should they succeed. Allowing the spell to go off first is a decent compromise, but my DM doesn't even do that, even though my spell is supposedly the thing that started combat. I think he's just a sore loser. He wants his baddies to get to attack us and when theres a scenario that might circumvent or trivialize that, he starts making shit up like "they were watching you, expecting trouble" or some BS. I hope the new refreshed rules codify something that helps deal with that situation.
I've seen the scene with the cupcake a few times, but not the whole series. Did they ever specify when she sprinkled the Dust of Deliciousness onto the cupcake? Because if it was a thing in the moment, wouldn't she have had to roll Sleight of Hand?
DM ruling. Laura caught Matt off guard in that moment when she specified it afterwards, and I’ve seen instances where Matt doesn’t have them roll for things because he’s interested in how this will play out. It’s one of those rule of cool moments that also balances out because Matt failed the save itself. TL;DR, Matt allowed it cuz it’s fun
Jester most likely had the dust on the cupcake already. She bought it dozens of episodes before this moment and was told that it only takes effect when eaten, so it's only natural that she would have flavored some food with it well in advance in case she intended to use it, regardless of whomever became its eventual victim.
You’ve found the secret Whovian rest point of the video (or panic point depending on your perspective) But yes, 100% a Dr. Who reference, glad that people are catching that 🥰
A combination of Clip Studio Paint and HitFilm Pro (I used to use After Effects but it was too expensive). Depending on which animation style in this compilation you’re talking about, cuz I also do a lot of anime-style animations in CSP exclusively 😅. But thank you!!

Pop Team Epic is still considered an anime, I believe, to be fair. && I’m currently working on a complete art redesign to sort of transition away from my old “Storytime Animation” art style with the white skin, so hopefully my next few videos will have that anime feel soon 🥰🥰🥰
None unless you count d10’s but that’s a different debate. Sam’s modifiers on his character sheet means that his roll becomes zero (as shown by the math in that section of this video)

Why not compile them in episode order?
Because I compiled them more or less in ascending order of my art style because it’s more of the growth of my channel and my uploads than wanting it to be in chronological order
I'm now realising that everyone says Laura started the whole dirt wizard thing, but Matt describes him as dirty when fjord is looking around.
Matt described it, Laura built on it, the cast ran with it, and thus our stinky Caleb headcanon was born. 😂
Technically Laura started the smelly thing. Liam and Matt knew he was dirty since the beginning.
Stinky Caleb is a mandela effect for most of the fandom@@SpywisMindPalaceAnimations
Jester fucking with that witch's head, and Matt's quiet panic as he realizes her plan are so great
Yeah, that was such a HUGE power play on Laura’s end and showing how sneaky Jester can be to do what she did to the hag
10:15 You’re artistic depiction of Jester saying this to Caleb makes me understand 100% why someone would fall for her, that is so adorable.
Thank you 😊
Caleb's voiceover monologue: That was how it all started, with that damned smile. That. Damned. Smile.
I feel like Travis rolling the natural 1s on the beanbag toss is the world balancing out his Nat 20s in "The Search for Grog"
I LOVE Matt’s stance during the Intimidation of the woods, that is the most “Please try it” expression I have ever seen and I want it for a DM Screen center section thing.
Hello there Reporter For Duty jrwi watcher here
It’s cool to se the art improvements
Thank you so much ❤️
The art in the beginning was cute.
The latter art is just perfected cuteness.
It went from scribbles to overachieving 🌸 I still tried to keep the consistent “anime Matt Mercer” look as best I could. 😂

Fjord rolling 3 Nat 1s in a row is a 1-in-8000 chance.

It's lovely to see all of these in 1 video and see your progress.
It’s been a wild journey. Can’t wait for Campaign 3
0:10 "This one makes you smarter"
Me: SOMEONE GET GROG!!!
Your sense of humor is great! Even the earlier ones are fun lol
Thanks!
The Jester and Henry Crabgrass one is just so adorable.
Thank you!!
I love seeing how much your art has improved!
Thank you! Can’t wait for Campaign 3!!
@@SpywisMindPalaceAnimations No problem! Me too!
This is AMAZING! ❤️ Your animations are so cool!! ❤️
Thank you so much! I really enjoyed making these and I look forward to making more for Campaign 3 🥰
The fjord flash back "consume" is amazing
Thank you! These are wonderful!
Thanks ❤️
Professor cad is my new favourite thing
😊
Thank you, for letting us relieve the campaign.

I saw that crack in space and time, Whovian!
These are great!
Thank you!!
These are all wonderful
Professor Caduceus just sounds like Talison
Love these so much! I look forward to seeing more of your content. Thanks!
Prepping to do some C3 stuff alongside my main focus of my original animations 🥰
The Keyleth & Vilya moment is soo cute!!
It was and I love how it brought many of the crew to tears to see Keyleth again

I can pronounce the J each time, accept when a w comes before it. How????????
Interesting 😅
Make the j into a y sound. Wyut is an approximation.
@@RowanGreycastle I always pronounced the Js as Is. Like you know. Jésus.

Passive perception vs her with advantage imo. Not worth rolling, just give it to the player at that point.
@@PoopaThug Makes sense. Thank you for the insight.
43:40 ....is that the tear in the wall from Doctor Who? Please tell me it is

@@SpywisMindPalaceAnimations 🎶 it's been a while 🎶 since I've watched Dr. Who but I'll never forget that crack.
45:28 not the wooloo!!
LOL, This was great!
New sub your art is amazing! How do you animate like that?
A combination of Clip Studio Paint and HitFilm Pro (I used to use After Effects but it was too expensive). Depending on which animation style in this compilation you’re talking about, cuz I also do a lot of anime-style animations in CSP exclusively 😅. But thank you!!
@@SpywisMindPalaceAnimations yw! do you do it on ipad/phone or computer?
im also here from tik tok lol
I use the iPad version of Clip Studio as it’s much more portable for me, but I do have a screen tablet in case I ever get to animate on streams.
The gigachad moment of all gigachad moments
Laura Fucking Bailey lol
Indeed
Drat, I haven't watched this far yet!
Great work, but maybe edit out the Thanks for watching between sketches.

@@SpywisMindPalaceAnimations I agree with you, thanks.

is it rude to say your art style seems like a fair bit more detailed version of Pop Team Epics style? If so then I am sorry

what dice has 0?
None unless you count d10’s but that’s a different debate.
Sam’s modifiers on his character sheet means that his roll becomes zero (as shown by the math in that section of this video)
3-3=0
Air Dice
D100s if you're incorrect.
