xqc and smallant yelling "GLASS" "LEMONS" is really the peak of my day
@@Sniearrs oh my goodness I was trying to be funny and embarrassed myself sorry!
I feel like Xqc and Smallant were one of the first to truly master the game mechanics. We absolutely need a S3 to see how far people like them can push the envelope.
@@dustychimp1171 Not in the same way. They all really had their own way of doing it. XQC's is probably the most interesting to watch because his chat size makes his strategy a lot more unique than just "have a lot of spies and guess" which is what the other 2 were doing
@@m_uz1244 The original comment says x and smant were the first to master the mechanics. Wubby used the same strategy as smant in his episodes final. Also in wubby’s episodes first rounds he literally did the same strategy as x because his chat was the biggest.
@@dustychimp1171 And I believe he saw XQC's failure and figured and his only strategy was to do what smallant does.
Smallant came out with the craziest shit I’ve ever seen. Dude is a freaking GAMER. That complete silence round was Chad as hell.
That was incredible.
@Hamza Siddiqui 1:26:50
It doesn’t really highlight it on this stream. But if you watch the vod he doesn’t say a word.
And if you watch wubby’s vod he freaks out. “I’m being told smallant is just not talking… that’s fine… wait no that completely fucks us he must have a secret stream fuck”
Didn't he just get lucky by being before x every time and paste his answer?
@@christiansargent6053 how? each person gets to go first once so xqc could just do the same
This is genuinely the most entertaining game show, we need season 3!
@@cottoncandylol7175 big agree though, make 4 seasons, winner of all seasons makes a Finale of the last time
@@natsuno. Good idea but the gameshow is just so flawed. Biggest audiences have too much advantage
@@cottoncandylol7175 thats the gimmick.... But you can't always trust your chat cuz they like to troll
There is literally no concept of cheating
You can to whatever the fuck you want and that's what makes it so good
@@cottoncandylol7175 well yeah, but that's why the show is called hivemind, use all the strategies you can
29:50 this gotta be my favorite part of this whole gameshow
xqc looking at his hairline saying “IM BALDING”
It came out of no where too, everyone's just discussing answers then xqc shouting "Im Balding!" shock humor at its finest
I think this is the peak of hivemind. The titan that is xQc, the master that is smallant, the fan favourite Connor, and a Minecraft rep in halo. They're all champions already, any could easily have been in the grand final.
I think the best part about this is the fact that smallant, before the questions against xqc, said that it would all come down to a coinflip. And so it was, when xcq had to decide between mario and pringles. He truly is a prophet
I mean have you seen the things he does in his streams? The guy is borderlining on becoming a psychic
It was fun watching other people’s chats claim SmallAnt was cheating.
What else do you expect from the holder of the fastest pencil sharpeners record
@@hansbloodsmith i mean, obviously sman wood have the sharpest mindset for for these kind of games
@@juseongpark4272 even so, you gotta admit he was really on point this episode
SmallAnt's idea of not voting anything is honestly so big brain. He makes others waste time trying to snipe from him, and focuses all his energy on yoinking...it's a curve ball that's really hard to beat
I appreciate that connor holds a SOLID dutch angle the ENTIRETY of the stream and brings a general uneasiness to not only his shot, but tension to the show in general. A true craftsman.
4:09 did small ant do what I think he did and have his chat vote agree knowing that this would easily go disagree so he could see what kind of influence he had? His reaction seems much more genuine than it would be for an obvious round like that .. like he was shocked to see they had that much of a pull when coordinated
Unless you knew that from his stream its insane you figured that out from this vid, but also 1000iq from smallant to find out how much he could affect the votes on an irrelevant round/topic
@@henrychurch7362 wait confirmed that’s what he did? I really didn’t see the stream.. that’s such a small ant move
@@bemo_10 its more than that guy literally makes 5000 iq plays, I've watched his lockout races and the like he's either a master manipulator or he's deadass got one of the biggest iqs in video gaming.
And that's what spurred the "Glass" answer to keep floating around. Once he understood the influence he had, he was able to reliably have the chat keep voting glass as a consistent safety net. The game had been rigged from the start ;)
29:50 i love XQC just half way in screams he's balding and continues to try and hide it
Watching Lud try to help Connor escape everyone calling him a minecrafter is so wholesome that it hurts.
Smallant absolutely crushed as I expected, he’s just way too good at everything he does
I like low energy XQC, he looks like he's having a good time.
When he's not being a toxic prick he's pretty funny. I just can't stand when he acts the way he did playing among us.
@@Statsmat I was unemployed throughout Covid and would watch them for entertainment I guess. I also used to enjoy the old deception games like Secret Hitler and Mafia so I guess that could be a part of it. It was also interesting to see other peoples thought process trying to come to the conclusion that "X" killed "Y" but I get that a lot of people don't understand it. I mean there are people who don't understand how someone can watch a person play video games in general yet they themselves watch sports or cooking shows. Same concept but about something they don't enjoy or understand.
@@denisjon6873 I'd rather watch a video of/on Hitler or Stalin though. On a more serious note, are you really defending him over me not liking the fact that he screams incoherent nonsense while other people are trying to talk and then acts like a baby pretending that he "knew who it was the whole time" after accusing the whole lobby. Also you brought both "Hitler" and "Stalin" into a comment section(in the same sentence mind you) where they are irrelevant.
@@thrownsofaraway9978 Opinions are nothing. I get it, you like your little Dream SMP and Toast playing Among Us, but the fact of the matter is... xQc has been the most watched streamer for the past 2 years. You can act as naive as you like, but this is always brought up as he is just a personality. So you are here having him living free in your mind from over a year ago.
Yes, my 2 most terrifying things are "mustard" and "glass"
Well when I was a kid my brother put mustard on my hand when I was sleeping and tickled my nose and it got in my eyes. I think mustard is something everyone should fear.
Smallant's round of silence was the most insane play I've ever fucking seen I noticed twenty seconds in and had to go back to make sure
Wubby won the game. Smallant won our hearts.
@@TheArrivalCyberse just cuz he touches kids doesn’t mean he’s creepy
Goodbye hivemind season 2. We will miss you
Man, I was rooting for smallant across that entire show, and he pulled out some mad plays, props to him
I watched this live from SmallAnt's stream, and I have to say that this was the best thing I've ever watched. Amazing show, hoping for another season!
At the end of the stream, SmallAnt credited his mods for being the reason why he was able to win.
I'm glad those 2 were in the finals, love both.
Beating xQc was massive.
SmallAnt, I think, is the best gamer on TH-cam.
@• Yeah I just assume people don't look at the comments before watching the video, reading comments without any video-context makes no sense to me.
@• Just use common sense, I was abt to read the comments midway through watching and stopped myself
@@weezy3701 as soon as I clicked on the video the top comment displayed by default on my phone said “smallant…” and didn’t matter how fast I changed my gaze, considering that was the top comment at the time of watching I knew the results before I started without meaning to read the comments. Not mad tho I still enjoyed xQc parts despite not being a fan of him.
Thank God it was two good sports who made it to the finals instead of that toxic ass manchild.
Ludwig and Charlie with the before-bed entertainment clutch :)
@@Psytheslasher how? this comment doesnt spoil the game at all, also how have people still not learnt to not read comments if you dont want spoilers...
@@ThomasonCG im not talking about this comment go read the others lol. I dont really care who won i just think its whack and a cop out to tell people to not read the comments on a show thats an hour and a half long.
smallant's strat of barely pulling a lead in round one and then using the size of xQc's chat during the team round to slingshot himself into the lead was genius
Now that's a true certified Brandon “Brandon” “Glizzy Hands” “Big A” “The Ghost” “Remember the Greenout?” “Sarah” "Master Glizzard" “Glizzlord” "Sir Glizzington" "Grustler" “Glizztopher” “The Gliz” “Mustard Boy” “Mr. Nvidia” “ASU Graduate” “Little Elf Boy” “Edward Scissorhands” “bunch of nicknames” “Blurper” “The Blev” “Patrick Ewing’s Nephew” “The Falco Slayer” “Little A” “Glizzy Gobbler” “I don’t have hot dog fingers” “[REDACTED]” “Golden Grahampa” “Reality Shifter” “1000 SR McCree” “The Conductor” “Little do you know” “Agent Sigma-19” “Glizzmaster69” “crinkydink” “Golden Glizzy Hunter” “Hexflex Clear Primer” “Big Hog” “Pizza Neck” “Macking Gummies” “Coke Addict” “Dog Shampoo” “trend setter” “only person capable of subbing to Twitch” “I don’t have glizzy hands” “Paris” “Weenie Fingies” “Sharker” “Boots” "small balls, big shaft" “Say it don’t spray it” “Not Single and Will Not Mingle” “WELL” “Loot Goblin” “Sugma Male” “S3K Superfan” "Glizzy 47" “Mustart Boy” “Boomer” “Atrioc” “Atroic” “Btrioc” “Atrio” “Basedtrioc” "G.H." “E-wing” “Ewing” Ewing Classic. That's quality.
Absolutely have Dougdoug on here for season 3. His chat works together like no other, and there are so many meme picks in his community he could go for as well
I’m going into this assuming Smant won cause I’ve never seen him lose
@@Sh1roNekoshi I was talking about smant almost winning but he technically won the first part
24:53 "Smallant trying to coerce X to do women" Just imagining them at a bar mulling it over and ant just says "Let's do women"
29:52 Smallant: *grinding gears to find answers*
xQc: "I'M BALDING!"
I watched this from felix's pov live and he was playing so scuffed. He didnt even know when rounds were starting 25% of the time.
@@Garrillagamer yea but I feel like whatever bot or person that smallant was using stuff like that should be banned. It should just be them and their chats
@@ojayc7443 there was no bots, smallant's mods were just heavily organized. I also disagree that using moderators should be banned since that would just come down to who has the largest chat. You can see that without that strat xQc would have won by a landslide.
@@ojayc7443 There was no bot, it was his mods just collecting data from the others. You can't ban the infiltration strategy because if they did xQc would've won, no contest.
SmallAnt would also never use a bot, he's way too competitive and has integrity, look up what he does on TH-cam, he's an absolute beast. *Probably* the best gamer on TH-cam, if he stuck to one game he'd be at the top 100%.
@@ojayc7443 Bots can't even help anyway because what people type in the chats are totally different to the answers they put in the prompt. The only thing that would be unfair bot-wise would be if they have one that auto-spams in the answer prompt, otherwise it would be no use considering xQc and others get people to spam baits
I like small ant and xqc as a team.They are both smart in completely different ways.
xQc: “CoD”
Ludwig: “I thought we just pulled out of that theme park”
Lmao
Love how connor comes in to host with no explanation give nhaha
Who would think, the man that was originally supposed to host the show won it in the end
@@sankhya_0461 They asked him if he wanted the position before the show started, but they told him to wait after he said yes, and they gave it to Ludwig instead.
@@snurdburglar6854 twitch came to him asked him to do it, after he said yes, they replied and said that he was “too expensive” before wubby even gave a price. They went on to pick two of the largest creators on the platform instead. TLDR wubby is a brand risk and got big timed
@@aleccooper9350 How is Wubby a brand risk but Cr1tikal isn't? Doesn't really makes sense to me.
woo! glad i stayed up this late lol
contestants were so stacked this season; can’t wait to see who they bring on for season 3 ^_^
Smallant imagined a thousand ways to kill Wubby when he said he would sacrifice Wooper
I cant believe Tekkin7 failed him...
such a fun episode and a great end to season 2 of this amazing gameshow! also, amazing work from everyone behind the scenes putting on a gameshow of such high quality!
I really hope there isn't a huge break between this and the next season! I absolutely love watching this gameshow it is one of the best parts of my week.
Poor Connor being sad, honestly he should've realised the situation he was in with the chat sizes and focused completely on "cheating". Smallant shows that it can be done. Connor was playing it like it was season 1, it's his loss
yeah man kept being sorry for himself and gave up after 5 minutes honestly deserves no sympathy. Completely deserved loss
X kept laughing at that minecraft dude the entire time. Anytime he talks, watch X's box, you'll see him just trying not to laugh.
Very excited for next weeks special Hivemind with Lud, Charlie, Miko and Big Guy competing!
I thought for sure that SmallAnt was gonna clutch this. I was on the edge of my seat the entire time. I love this gameshow
50:58 i love how conner is just petting his cat b/c he knows he wont win, its so sad but so wholesome
I look forward to hive mind every week. Thanks to y’all and the team for bringing such unique (to the platform), creative and entertaining content to twitch and TH-cam both. So fun to watch how creators that don’t usually collab bounce off of eachother and showcase their personalities. Cant wait for season 3!
Damn, that was as close of a final that I’ve ever seen. I have a newfound respect for X. Grudgingly. But I guess he’s actually pretty okay.
X is absolutely hilarious in this
Fr I usually don't watch cuz all I know is like super toxic xqc but he was funny in this
I don’t really watch much of his stuff but I LOVE seeing him on other people’s streams and videos. He’s so funny and a little more chilled out
I really love the TH-cam edits here, keep doing these for season 3!
“Smalant has pointcrow in a sweatshop” is an underrated joke
i loved the grand finale
so much tension so many plays
plus both competitors were so respectful and nice
SmallAnt is the smart kid in class that lets you see his paper
I hope we'll see this on youtube still in some way shape or form in the next season. Love what you're doing here!
this is genuinely the best game show I have seen in my life. I'm honestly so glad every wednesday that it's on. It would be awesome to have a third season
How is there not a single comment appreciating just how hard Wubby played this game. Good shit Smallant tho.
I think putting smallant with x in the teams round is dumb, they're obviously the "stronger" players, so it just doesn't even become a competicion with the lead they gain
But they choose the names randomly, I get what you’re saying how together they’re op but it’s not like that was planned
For season three, in round 2, you guys should have everyone team up at least once. Now, during round 2, players 1 and 2 can’t overtake one another, as can’t player 3 and 4. If the gap is too big, round 3 alone might be too difficult to close this gap.
Holy shit Wubby with the Chris Chan sacrificed his virginity that was shocking and hilarious I died
From Hive mind to Mogul Money to Chess Boxing, now this is a man who loves to go bigger and better
Huge inspiration
I love the memes, but nothing is more exciting to watch than people actually taking the game seriously. What an ending to the season. Couldn't ask for a better pair to compete :D
I got to watch this live and I’m very happy I did
I did too, but it was painful for me, probably cause I watched from Connor's perspective
So hype I hope they get Myth on an episode in season 3
Smallant is a speedrunner, imagine a better spamming chat, knew from the beginning, a winner, a champion
This had an amazing run on twitch, I enjoyed my stay
The transitions behind the scenes are improving, props to the guys running it behind the scenes. I see you. ❤
The production on this is insanely good.
I love xQc’s psychological war fair tactics by laughing and making the others doubt their decisions
The final qualifiers round was BBH attempting to get answers in, none of which he guessed. Connor was just there trying a wild card, meanwhile Smant was running calculations and X was reading off the English dictionary like-
smallant and huge charles in the same video is something i didn’t know i needed
@ Ludwig really has a lot of tactics, hosting a game to make it not boring , interviewing and interacting withbhis co host.I love the style.
Never thought I’d see Smallant and xQc in a video together lmao Canadians teaming up
25:00 "I think it's just Point Crow in a sweat shop" had me dead! LOL
Charlie appreciating small ant is the best thing i saw today
the switch up from how bad of a day I was having to having some laughs and feeling better watching this might actually be clinically insane
I loved the round where SmallAnt said LITERALLY NOTHING so that Wubby couldn't get a single steal lmao
Wubby is just cracked at this game. Smallant was a great contestant but he stood no chance against the Goblin himself.
His whole chat had like 10 streams open to give answers we wanted our boy to win lol
Ive never been more invested in a youtube video in my entire life
This game show needs to be on prime time TV! I was on the edge of my seat the whole time! More seasons!
That moment when i start yelling shrek at then they cut to xqc followed by smallant's steal. win!
15:52 Would have been hilarious if slime just walked into the room and let one rip.
Small ant anime game plans ahead of every event. This event, he had the plan of making everything glass related. Like, I’ve never seen someone try so hard to win while being chill about it.
SmallAnt has no mercy for his opponents. If he's in, he's in to win.
i broke one of my glass jars today and i was totally in favour of smallant saying glass every single round, that shits traumatic
I have never wanted to hear "Call of Duty" so much in my entire life
man, at the smoothie question, Ant was just staring into the abyss like it was going to give him the answers
17:30 I feel like I got the same chills that Ludwig got in this moment. Smant is unreal
Justice for Connor. His grand finals isn't counted in his point total on the leaderboard, and even if it was, he had two less questions and they were round 1 point values. Assuming we adjust the grand final values to match those of SmAnt, even two questions short Connor would be at 7030. Even playing fields, Connor would still be on top.
@@Sh1roNekoshi never too much math when it comes to the eater of pants himself
I think teams should be 1st and 4th with 2nd and 3rd to balance things out
Hivemind has become my weekly comfort show. Can’t wait for season 3!!!
I saw this live but I can't wait to see it with editing!
Smallant said it himself, he has the power of god and anime on his side
You'll get the title right eventually! I believe in you!!
You guys should get some sponsors and do this more. Its hard to find cool stuff like this on youtube.
I was scared it wasn't getting uploaded, love this show !
After the dollhouse stream, I can’t wait for jerma to be in hivemind season 3. Not because I think he would win, but because it would be absolutely hilarious to watch him try
No one:
SmallAnt: G L A S S
was watching from smallant's stream, so much fun :-D!!!!!
The goosebumps book analogy was amazing in round 4
I’ve never met a more calm minded, yet unbelievably competitive man than smallant. He will stubbornly fight while still being a good sport the whole time. What a champ
He was also doing it all for charity. He played such a good game just to have none of it go to himself and instead give it all to charity. More people need to be like him
@@luqdude Wow I didn't know that, that's awesome
He’s the most aggressively Canadian person I know of LMAO
The same cannot be said of XQC, when he lost he was so mad he ended stream then turned it back on again and went to do something else instead of sticking around like literally everyone else that was on the show.
@@Alex-ve1og he’s a busy man
