2 nat 20s on disadvantage is actually insane, what a rollercoaster finish

Man, the nilbog got *robbed* due to that matchup, it would've gotten way further if it wasn't up against something immune to most of it's bullshit xD

It would have auto-won its second match as both the Half-ogre and the dragon can only attack once per turn.

The party nightmare challenge is: 4 giant toads being ridden by 4 scarecrows accompanied by 4 spector possessed animated armors. Good luck not dying. 😂😊

I would guess level 7. 5 levels for a fireball and the rest to not instantly die.

specter casually getting as meny nat 20s as fights

Can’t wait for Cr 30 tournament where a tarrasque fights Tiamat

Pretty sure is an automatic Tiamat Win, literally immune to all tarrasque attacks xD

Just finished the copper dragon vs animated armor fight, been rooting for the animated armor so hope to see them win

Maw demon should have used discharge against scarecrow to avoid resistance

Didn't expect to get so invested in this, and ending up chanting specter whenever they enter the arena, ready to mop the floor with their opponent. Can't wait to see the specter return as a wraith in the CR 5 tournament.

27/32 points! Wasnt expecting the Duergar to get 1 tapped, also thought the Maw Demon would perform better against the scarecrow and the Wrymling would perform better against the Animated Armor. That ending was insane, but the Specter made the epic comeback

The scarecrow is even more powerful, says frightened is also paralyzed, so no lion attacks.

@@BrandonRKim You'll never convince me that the Spectre isn't a shonen protagonist, the evidence is right there.

Interesting. I remember once seeing an online tool where you could simulate D&D combat between 2 groups. I'm sure running each battle at least 10 times would be a better way of doing it so one side doesn't just win by lucky rolls. 🤔

Very impressive!!!

Very cool as always, but just a couple of notes: The Choker cannot use the tentacle ON ANOTHER TARGET. So they can still keep choking the same creature with the first tentacle. Also, it has a kind of action surge ability 1/short rest. If you used it correctly, it would have destroyed the toad. Still, choker vs specter had no chance (immune to grapple + resistant to damage), so it doesn't really matter lol

@BrandonRKim

We’ve had a lot of discourse on the another target thing, and it seems to me to be still a bit confusing… but the choker was waiting to use their action surge for a knock out blow!!

@sovelisholimion2680

@@BrandonRKim why is it confusing? The same creature is the same target... And also it wouldn't be much of a choker if after grabbing you it stopped squeezing :(

These are fun! Do you have any thoughts about random (rolled) terrain influence for each battle in the form of a re-roll inspiration? For example, "cliff side" terrain could give inspo to all creatures with flying speed, "underdark cave" could give the inspo to all creatures with darkvision, "dark forest" to all creatures with a stealth skill or invisibility, "urban streets" could give inspo to shapechangers and charmers, etc etc. This could give potential extra chances for creatures that have their power distributed to more "utility" features. Obviously this would complicate the format a tad, but I'm curious to hear your thoughts about it! :)

SPECTER WINS! LETS GOOOOOOOOO!

Ptetty sure svarcrow wins most times but yhis waa entertaining

Cool videos and entertaining but kinda big shame how the monsters are just run as sacks of hp, ac and attacks. No other features are being used. No tactics or strategy only base attacks. Examples: Gazer flight wasn't used against an enemy without ranged abilities, kobold sorcerer didn't levitate out of reach and pelt with bolts, dragon didn't use flight and breaths to dominate, climbing and environmental tricks and other such features have not been used. The high damage and high durability monsters have too much of an advantage here. Adding more complicated strategies would of course make things more interesting but slso hard/longer/more complicated to run. Have fun eith the series 👍
