Happy Thanksgiving! And if you don’t celebrate it, hope you’re having a very epic day 🤝
I don't know why taskmaster showed up
Taskmaster is not a Spider-Man villain and is more of an international mercenary, it doesn't make sense for Kraven to have killed him even if he appeared on his list. It's more likely that he wasn't even in the country. If anything it's more likely that he will be in the Wolverine game than being dead.
Kraven wasn’t just going after Spider-Man villains. He was trying to find people who he thought could take him down. It wasn’t exclusively only Spider-Man villains was going after
@@dohgaming8677 No I meant that because he isn't a Spider-Man villain it doesn't make sense for him to die in a Spider-Man story.
@@The_Phantasm they killed miss marvel in a spiderman central comic
@@dohgaming8677 Let's hope that Insomniac is smarter than Marvel editorial.
He could be in a dlc
I know Taskmaster was probably just on a job elsewhere by the time Kraven showed up but I think it’s really funny to imagine he knew Kraven was coming and just dipped
Mf really felt the presence of a half-naked partially suicidal buff dude and ran away
Nah he'd body kraven
@@GrifterTheBoyIdiotDunno. Kragen did damn good against Venom. Not taking a side but I don't think it'd be easy for either
@@GrifterTheBoyIdiotnah it would be a draw
I don’t think it would be easy to kill Taskmaster since he can copy and mimic every single fighting move just by watching and studying individuals who are skilled in hand to hand combat. Not only that, he can mimic movements of others too, Kraven fighting Taskmaster would be nice to see but having the character killed by Kraven….. yea- no… I don’t really see it like that
If they actually do that I may permanently drop this franchise😭. They already disrespected everyone else, at LEAST give a beast like Taskmaster some RESPECT. Bro had one of the best boss fights in the first game too
@@no.1spidey-fan182hey Kraven was badass, don’t shade him like that
Bro he killed off the og spiderman villains, he is badass but he was pretty annoying for that shit. He even killed shocker 💀
@@no.1spidey-fan182taskmaster is auch a boring character
@@theoutsiderjess4869 In your opinion sure💀
Easy explanation, he never got to taskmaster. Not everyone on the list he went after example prowler and wraith. Doesn’t mean he never would but they might have just been further down the list and he died before reaching them. His goal wasn’t to take them all out his goal was to find the one strong enough to kill him and he did.
Wraith woulda been an easy kill lol, prowler woulda been a lil more trouble, but still none at all to kraven.
I don’t think kraven could have killed him even if he wanted to, I mean he went toe to toe with the avengers which was mentioned in the second taskmaster boss battle in marvel’s spider man 1
I like to think that Roxxon hired Taskmaster to recruit Spider-Man to the corporation. It makes sense if you think about it, Roxxon has worked with criminals like Prowler and hired Rhino as an elite security unit in Spider-Man: Miles Morales and they were expanding into New York at the time as well. Idk maybe Roxxon figured out Spider-Man's identity going by the line that Taskmaster says "Guess some people choose to be poor" and was looking to recruit Peter to the NuForm project
I like the theory, but I still feel like we will figure out who was trying to recruit him in Spider-Man 3. It has to be followed up.
@@davidunderwood1773my theory is oscorp, It doesn’t make too much sense from Spider-Man 1 but it makes sense for the upcoming Spider-Man 3 as norman will obviously play a big role as green goblin, maybe he wanted to learn how to beat Spider-Man if Harry needed his blood for a cure (that being if the symbiote didn’t work) so if oscop was the company taskmaster was talking about green goblin might come after peter or miles to get their blood got a cure
@@JamesMaund538 I like that theory
@@davidunderwood1773 one of the only bits of evidence that I have to back it up is that the company would pay Peter 6 figures to work for them and oscorp, aim and Roxxon would be the only main companies able to do that, but considering we don’t get told what the job is it could as well be giving his blood for research
@@JamesMaund538maybe AIM and hydra or the other company evil the Spiderman 3 future
It could be for Stryker's task force. Maybe they assumed Spider-Man is a mutant and wanted to hire him. Would be cool if we see Taskmaster also go against Wolverine.
I actually really like this theory. Maybe Stryker thinks Spidey is a mutant. Cool theory!
Or Taskmaster got the notification that he was on the list and said "fuck this" and left
Taskmaster was lucky he never met symbiote Spidey or Venom💀
Just cuz he fought the avengers doesn't mean they wouldn't hire him, in fact it probably makes it MORE likely that they would hire him after that encounter. He doesn't care who he's working for as long as they pay well, and I'm sure Tony Stark has more than enough to cover Taskmaster's asking price
tbh im questioning if avengers even exist cuz no way symbiotes take over the city and they have like a week to hear about it and just ignore it. maybe their on another planet or smth but they havent said th eword avengers yet
@@Moshmushh they are on their wescoat base during the games
@@Moshmushh the avengers tower is literally in all 3 games 😂😂😂
@@mosalacommodore6993 yeah theres the tower i know but it might be a easter egg
Makes sense, Taskmaster trained SHIELD agents and rookie heroes in the comics during the 50 states initiative right after Civil War. He’d definitely take a paycheck from the Avengers
I think taskmaster is just out there somewhere probably working for aim cause aim probably wanted to mind control Peter to work for them
Nah, it was probably SHIELD.
@@ManOfX305nah the taskmaster is the mercenaru maybe AIM,hidra or other evil company
@@jesusraycrep Taskmaster isn’t evil- his morals align with whoever’s paying the highest.
A fight between Taskmaster and Kraven would be so damn cool. If anyone could put up a fight against this version of Kravinoff - it's someone, who can copy his moves.
No, yeah, I think SHIELD is the one who hired Taskmaster to spy on Spider-Man. If it was Norman Osborn, he would've asked Spider-Man in a heartbeat to come to his lab and do some testing on his blood for a cure for Harry. In fact, the two did interact a few times in Marvel's Spider-Man 2 (phone calls and close interactions during the time when Venom went loose). Norman is a desperate person when it comes to saving his son's life but it doesn't seem like he sees Spider-Man as the real answer to his son's predicament.
We're also not sure if the spider that bit Peter is related to Oscorp (except for the spider that bit Miles) but the point is, if Spider-Man and Norman met each other in person, Norman would've already begged to Spider-Man for help. AND here's one thing!
In the game (MSM2), as Miles, you can wear the Agent of SHIELD suit, which would imply that SHIELD is indeed canon in this universe. Which brings another question... Does this mean Miles was or is currently hired to spy on Peter? But that is another deeper rabbit hole.
The suits don't got nothing to do with canon because Spider-Man can wear a spider punk suit even though spider punk is Hobie brown, someone who's black.
I'm pretty sure they were just looking for another suit for Miles.
@@DondonII Well that Hobbie Brown suit is a funny situation considering there's in game dialogue for JJJ referencing it😂. And that's like the only suit he does it for
My guess is he was working for the camelon
Taskmaster is probably too overpowered for Kraven, he’s fought people like Black Widow in the comics, so I think he’ll probably appear in a dlc or the Wolverine game
I just wanna know where Walter hardy went… that storyline with him in the first game was so interesting. And Felicia still doesn’t even know about her father being alive
I honestly want him to stay alive
Happy Thanksgiving everyone and i really wanted Taskmaster to return.
My theory is Smyth international hired Task Master.
I'm going with the theory that they're teasing him for the next game. Like Scarecrow in the Arkham trilogy. While we don't get much of a tangible clue--like we do in Arkham City with Scarecrow's mask on top of straw--he is teased slightly because his appearance on Kraven's hitlist. I mean, they included Wraith in Spider-Man 2 and she was introduced in DLC! So, unless they are fools and set up a potentially major side-quest story only to drop it, I think Taskmaster is coming back in a big way! Those two Hush sidequests in Arkham 2 & 3 were gold and connected beautifully!
This isn’t even a theory but just saying I think would be cool, kind of like what you suggested with the idea of taskmaster appearing in multiple insomniac superhero games to confirm they’re all set in the same universe, what if it turns out the organization that hired taskmaster ends up being a threat that forces multiple superheroes to come together to stop them?
Like let’s say it turns out the group behind us is hydra and they create an avengers game where you play as multiple heroes new and old. I think that would be pretty cool
That would be DOPE💯🔥
I think taskmaster was definitely working for kraven, that's what could have led kraven to go after Spider-Man. The henchman could have been the one to task him to test characters in the game to see if they were a,"worthy," hunt.
Interested theory, I wish Kraven could come back, but I'd like to see his daughter, Anna.
Except that Taskmaster said that his employers were interested in recruiting Spider-Man, not hunting him down.
@@simonaspalovis1204 True, if he said hunting down, then that would imply Kraven, was eying on New York.
Just noted something.
In 2:44, on Downtown Queens (at the top of the map), you can see that there's a target with the picture of Doctor Octopus, then it glitches/switches to Electro and then switches to Wilson Fisk, who isn't in the game. Could be a glitch, but I don't know. Electro is dead and Ock is planned for a possible 3rd game, but what about Fisk?
Ah you’re right, my mistake. I think the point I make still stands though as Taskmaster is his own predominant icon on it!
They forgot about him. Considering how they used all the other characters I don't put that past them
i think maybe its something like changing and showing all targets at the raft since it could be dificult to fit
Fisk is no match for Kraven
I've always thought odd that Taskmaster and Sable had the same technology. I had the feeling that it indicated some sort of connection between the two.
Might show up in the wolverine game, taskmaster could've either been hired by stryker or by ross to go after logan or banner.
Considering the beetle is the first dlc, id wager task master highered him to get any remaining symbiote samples left in the city for his own uses.
An yes i know they believe they got it all already in game.
They didnt.
I’m also thinks Taskmaster will be in the DLC. And I’m willing to bet that the organization that hired him is A.I.M. We already know they exist because of their logo appeared on boxes in Otto’s lab.
I think Silver Sable makes the most sens, they can litteraly kill people if they must to, and breaking a lot of rules and Norman gives them a lot of money. Also between Kraven and Taskmaster fight, Taskmaster can copy every move in a few seconds so he propably be winning with Kraven in fight.
Another possibility is that Taskmaster could’ve been hired to find another hero to join there forces. It would make the most logical sense to send out someone who can stand there own in battle for a long time and has a history of spying on hero’s to just be constantly be sent out to find other hero’s such as wolverine.
Taskmaster definitely would’ve given Kraven the challenge he desired before he died.
yeah I think he definitely be impressed task master because of he’s ability of copying other heroes moves which would find him really worthy
I think Taskmaster should appear in Wolverine and basically do the same thing with Logan, just obviously a bit different from the Spider-Man games. He could even give Logan the same kind of offer about an organization, and Logan could reject it, with Taskmaster making a reference to Spider-Man by saying how all these guys don't even want money.
3:18 If it surprises you that he fought electro and won, it must mske you absolutely flabbergasted to know that in the recordings, he remarks that electro was the easiest to kill.
I think we may see him again in wolverine, seeing if Logan is also worthy to work for whoever is paying TM.
When TaskMaster got into the “rich company” thing I have an huge impression that TaskMaster is an Roxxon worker. Roxxon is was a huge Miles and they literally have some huge tech so does Taskmaster and Rhino just told to the security to get Tinkerer and Miles cause they’re both Roxxon enemies
Random little detail - another character on Kraven's list that doesn't show up in the game is Kingpin - his past actions are mentioned occasionally but nothing about where he is now
Keep it up on your work and this video and channel
I love this video and channel
Thanks you for your video and channel
Far fetched but. . .
What if taskmaster was scouting for Kraven.
To be fair kraven never went after yuri who is on the list so he wasn’t able to go for everyone
I feel like kraven hired taskmaster but betrayed him by hunting him I mean kraven might be a rich guy and think about it kraven might have hired him because kraven wanted to hunt spider man and needed someone who can do spider man’s skills and taskmaster can copy peter’s skills but maybe kraven was just stalling to figure out how to hunt both of them think about it
I Agree with your thoughts-Theories
It’s probably AIM but it would be cool if it was the Thunderbolts, after all we are getting a Wolverine game and both Deadpool and lady deathstrike were on that team and are close to Wolverine.
No way Kraven killed Taskmaster hes too skilled. Most likely Taskmaster isnt in NY he probably is on another job
To be honest, Taskmaster seems like the kind of person who would realise if someone was trying to find him, so he probs left NYC
i thought the same about him being in the wolverine game, and it could be a prequel to spider-man 2 between miles morales
Probably Kraven got his ass so beaten that he broke his philosophy of dying in battle and pretended that Taskmater wasn't in the city
I think task master was simply cutted due to lack of time, spider man cam out very quickly after first teaser so it would be wise to assume they cutted some of mission, my guess is that they planned mission where you play as kraven to show his abilities but they cutted the mission that would lead to this because it would be some kind of retrospection or a dream of peter
2:14 OK I have the craziest theory, but what if Kraven hired task-master in the first Spider-Man game to test Peter to see if he would be a worthy hunt?
fisk was there too on the map, with dock ock, and the others in the RAFT didnt hear about him tho
If kraven wanted a last hunt he should have hunted taskmaster he would have gave kraven the perfect death since thats what he wants.
It was me. I hired Taskmaster.
My theory is that Roxxon have hired Taskmaster before the happenings of the Miles game and they had lots of contacts with criminals like Black Cat and TombStone and they must’ve had a work of Roxxon and Taskmaster in the Peter game
The most likely answer is that he was just not in the country he is in international mercenary he’s probably busy, fighting the avengers or something because last game he did say that he has picked fights with the avengers.
Then don't have him on the list😂
@no.1spidey-fan282 New York was the last place he was seen so the hunters check there didn’t find him it’s simple.
It’s the only reasonable assumption that I could think of or maybe they just cut him out of the game because. They couldn’t fit him into the game they originally had rhino dead in Spider-Man 2, but they scrapped that could be the same for taskmaster.🤷🏾♂️
@@elviraweekes3906 Once again...don't put him on the list🤨. There's something called show not tell in storywriting because the veiwers can gain a lot just based on seeing something happen. This game was a let down in a lot of areas cause insomniac misused the concept.
They showed ALLLL these characters that could potentially impact the story...yet half of them die OFFscreen, the one's on screen are side mission that don't tie into the main plot at all(Wraith) or reformed OFFscreen like Tombstone and 2 of them that being Kingpin and Taskmaster don't even SHOW UP. Gonna use that same edcuse for Kingpin?...who's still in jail so he cant actually leave...Thi is big guantlet they hinted at with Kraven Hunting all these characters was just false advertising in the end ad 80 to 90% of them are misused. This entire Kraven hunting Metas storyline was handled better in the comics
I don’t know what to tell you they can’t make a good story with all of those characters so many plot lines, that would basically be amount of nothing in the very first game. The screen time for most of the villains were like one scene and a Boss-fight I do agree that they shouldn’t of added, all the villains if they’re not going to show all of them but this was all they can do. If they tried to take on that task then 90% of the plot lines would go unfinished so they had to make the choice, to sacrifice some of these characters to make the rest better. This is the same reason why I feel like they shouldn’t add Cindy Moon into the mix. How are they possibly going to fit potentially three spider people into the mix with Carnage and Green Goblin and Doc Ock.
I FIGURED IT OUT : Kraven did fight I'm but I'm not sure about the part where he died or not. BUT Kravens tech is similar to Kravens like the nets that Cravens henchmen can throw at you that will trap you and that you have to spam x occasionally to escape, or the disappearing thing he uses in the boss fight with peter. Regardless, I think they fought because of how similar some of his tech is.
When did we get that taskmaster cutscene and how do I get it? I have 291 hours in that game and I’ve never seen it
Taskmaster beats kraven, tbh if he wanted to kill spidey in the first game he probably would but he was hired to test him not kill him, also kraven is making himself very easy to copy for tm since he hunts in the open
Trust me. Kraven don’t want that smoke.
I still wonder who taskmaster was referring to in the first game when he said if Peter was worth recruiting
I swear if kraven killed Taskmaster I'm going to be so mad kraven killing the sinister 6 was already BS to me but Taskmaster there's no way Kraven could kill him
It's possible but it's most likely either he was doing a different mission or saw Kraven and was like no I ain't going after him he can go free from my wrath
Well, they killed off rhino. But we didn’t get any information on that. We had a glitch the game to find out anything about him they weren’t even going to tell us so you could be right maybe a fight did occur between him and kravin and he won or he did just leave New York before kravin could get to him
Nah, taskmaster would beat the hell out of kraven, they cant just make him murder every villain spiderman fought
Could also be Sword or something, maybe. But yeah, I think Oscorp or actually Roxxon would be most likely.
I doubt it'd be a stale mate because kraven was welcoming death and running towards it with open arms
Obviously the Avengers/Shied hired him. In the comics he has worked in a neutral capacity.
Just a theory of mine that would tie most of this together. I think that the hand has something to do with it. They are a rich organization that’s tied with Spider-Man, and daredevil. Also the hands hideout is seen in the Spider-Man 2 game so that’s a possibility
he’s a villain for captain america, black widow, spider man, and deadpool
so he would probably be in some other places during the events
Maybe they wanted spidey for the Thunderbolts
Also don’t forget taskmaster was in the start of The Avengers game for PlayStation.
Gotta be roxon
Let's not forget that Taskmaster was also in the Mile Morales game
No he wasn’t
Where
I haven't watched a video yet but before I watch the video I was wondering about that so on the monitor craven's monitor it shows all of Spider-Man's villains did he kill the ones that we didn't see were those going to be the DLC later on
i think he might be in the hand dlc with daredevil
I think it could be less of a story reason and more of a cut content/future DLC reason
Here is my theory, we saw taskmaster was in Brooklyn. And isn’t there a captain America black panther game coming out by insomniac? We’ll cap is from Brooklyn, what if Hydra hired Taskmaster to look for people who possibly could help make a super soldier serum or something idk, and one of those people was spider man cus of his blood, and that explains why he wasn’t in this game cus he will be in the cap game, and if Taskmaster is in Brooklyn with cap Kraven wouldn’t go close cus he knows he couldn’t stand a chance agains Cap. It kinda answers all the questions, just a idea.
What if Kraven was the one who paid taskmaster and lied about "recruiting" Spider-Man so Taskmaster would Set up Challenges to see if Spider-Man was worth hunting?
Doubt it. The dude can mimick the fighting abilities of any hero or villain. Plus when it comes to traps he’s pretty good at setting them up. Course I’m basing that off all the challenges he has set up for Spider-Man.
It's confirmed he fell off a building and died after saying "I have a photo reflective memory" in the first game
Mf got hired by the avengers
id like it more if taskmaster was hired by some evil organisation to replicate (clone saga??)/learn/study spiderman's powers instead of seeing if hes worth recruiting
like taskmaster working for the good guys really doesnt work well in my eyes. ig insomniac could pull it off but id like seeing evil taskmaster in these games more
I feel like it was Norman
I think Mandy craven higher craven, craven many wanted information on Spider-Man because spider I think was a target on the list plus both craven and test master have neon weapons kinda.
Kraven only killed vulture, scorpion, shocker, and electro
I always assumed it was The Thunderbolts who hired Taskmaster.
It also seems like Taskmaster really knows that Pete is Spider-Man considering he said "I guess some people deserve to be poor." Maybe I'm reaching though
Wait Taskmaster’s name is Tony???😂😂 I’ve never known that
I mean Kingpin and Doc Ock are very briefly shown and neither of them are in the game, at least for very long
Imagine if taskmaster works for Kraven
Not everyone on the list was in the game.
I personally think he will pull up in wolverine
Edit: Watched the video and yeah I agree with that last thing
Test-Moss-Tore
I think a possibly organisation could be Hydra I mean they have hired mercenaries before
They really had taskmaster do the same finisher that you have in the game 🤣 good attention to detail for the inclusion of taskmaster in this game. 😅
Here’s my theory: kraven hired him. He’s rich enough and kravens organization was secret enough that nobody knew about it. This is probably why.
I believe it is kingpin who hired taskmaster.
Wait is it Possible that Tony Masters’ blood on was on Sergei’s hands?
I hired Task Master
I fell like the organization was either .S.E.I.L.D or some other big hitter
Is there a possibility that the thunderbolts possibly hired taskmaster
Norman hired him to find out how Spider-Man got his powers?
