Killing and maiming each other isn’t off the table now. They’re treating this like an actual war

This is nonsense.

While there are some criticisms that I agree with, others I don't. Regarding sending Wolverine to fight Magneto (which is a move they keep making in the comics, obviously): up to this point, Magneto had always been holding back against the X-Men, and he clearly still was during this fight up until this point. He very visibly wasn't trying to kill Cyclops or Jubilee, who also weren't trying to kill him. But Wolverine saw an opportunity he might not have taken in their previous encounters (you know, before Magneto killed thousands... er, millions) to try to take him out once and for all... but he also knew that they needed Magneto alive to undo the damage. So, Wolverine probably went for a decisive but not entirely fatal strike. And that escalated things. As for sending Cable to fight Sinister, they didn't even have reason to believe Sinister would be there. He kind of showed up out of nowhere. They also didn't have reason to believe Sinister could mind control Cable even if he did show up. And as for why they didn't just send a team of two people or whatever: they knew Bastion was unlikely to be disabled, so he's still a dangerous opponent. Cable has knowledge on Bastion that makes him the most qualified to figure out how to shut him down. Besides, if sending Wolverine to fight Magneto is a duh moment, sending Cable, whose entire arm is metal, would have been even worse.

I tell you. This show might be one of the best animated shows ever.

This episode is truly remarkable, and the action is masterful! THAT ENDING WAS INSANE! While I do understand Charles's reasoning for giving Magneto the mansion, the man still neglected his students and pupils. Look where they are now: on the brink of war, he's lost two team members to Magneto (Rogue quite literally went rogue)and Magneto's line: "God's abandon those who believe in them" is such a powerful line. I love how Storm and Jean see each other as sisters, and their bond together is really wholesome. That line: “Make them mind your weather, sister. And them weather your mind" is such a good line! I find it interesting that Bastion still loves his mother despite what he did to her and turned her into a sentinel zombie, which makes me think he's not as emotionless and robotic as we were made to believe since he is part human. It's scary how powerful Bastion is, considering he's essentially a one-man Sentinel factory. Nah, the animation in this show is PHENOMENAL AND GIVES ME MAJOR ANIME VIBES, I LOVE IT!

Kurt constantly makes the point he doesn't have to see where he's going, he just needs to picture the landing in his mind. So while I'm not sure about the range, line-of-sight isn't an issue.

Regarding your criticisms most of them can be answered with- the characters don't know what the audience knows. Example: The X-men doesn't know about the Sinister connection (or did I miss it?). That's why the sent that team to fight Bastion...

Magneto EMP'd the planet to shutdown all electrical devices, thus stopping the Sentinels, and did so by manipulating the Earths magneticfield which could cause irreparable damage to the planet if not undone, but undoing it will allow the Prime Sentinels to reactivate. It's comicbook science sure.. but it's not that hard to understand.. Especially since they literally say most of that in straight dialogue.

My theory on Morph is he can simulate "physical" powers. So he can grow, become stronger (like the hulk) or faster (like quicksilver), simulate claws etc like Deathstrike but (and correct me if I'm wrong here) he can't simulate powers like Cyclops, Magneto, Storm, Prof X etc.

16:17 Non Snap players must be so confused. "What the hell are ongoing effects?"

I think a lot of people are missing the idea that both Magneto and Charles are both wrong in different ways. Magneto is correct in the sense of humanity not willing to be accept mutants fully and that Charles’ overall dream is too far away to accomplish. But him doing the EMP thing, while understandable to protect mutants, is undeniably hurting people. Just blindly saying “Magneto is right” and thinking everything he does is entirely justifiable isn’t correct imo. Charles is correct all people need to be protected and helped, but isn’t willing to accept that fundamentally, at least at this current point in the timeline, humanity isn’t going to be able to coexist with mutants, a place like Genosha or Astroid M is needed and needs to be the priority for mutant kind.

6:23 The problem with your thinking is: 1.) Mr. Sinister is still working with Bastion. The X Men know this is true, because Trask told them all just before Rogue killed him. The also saw all the work to make the Prime Sentinels at the NATO lab were they met with Trask. 2.) There are way to shield from an EMP, especially underground and inside a mountain. 3.) The make up of the teams work to need of the situation and the strengths of the characters. Beast and Forge are the tech guys Storm's powers are best on Earth Morph can be anything so is best for whatever surprises pop up. Cable is on a mission can careless about Magneto Jean is there to protect against mental attacks and to look after "her" kid The other time has more storyline must. Professor X Jubilee Nightcrawler Scott always goes with Professor X like a good boy Wolverine was always going to go just to make the hard call like only he can.

Morph can only mimic PHYSICAL abilities. Won't get mind powers for turning into Jean, won't get magnetic powers by turning into Magneto

Basically, Magneto launched a world-wide EMP with his powers (hence while all electronics including sentineld are now down). However, it also affected the planet’s Ozone layer & its slowly deteriorating(hence the doomsday scenario)

That’s a good wolverine impression 😆

The organization of the teams is purely logical (maybe except wolverine but that has an explanation too): Beast and Forge are in the Gold team because they are both Geniuses of technology, they could be needed to shut down any technology that Bastion has still functioning. Cable is in the Gold team because he is an expert fighting Sentinels, fighting Nimrod was HIS thing, besides they didn't knew that Sinister was with Bastion there, specially because Sinister is a coward, he would had fleed as soon as Magneto's Black Out happened but he stayed only to get control over Cable (he said it himself). Charles was in the Blue team because he thought he could convince Magneto without too much violence and he would have basically been useless against Bastion. Jean was send with the Gold team because they needed a Telepat in each team to keep contact if the things went south and Charles was already in the Blue team. Kurt would be really useful in both teams but they ultimately send him with Blue team because with Magneto having Rouge's and Roberto's help they would need someone to evade them before getting to Magneto (Besides both Rouge and Roberto knew about the original plan so they wouldn't expect Kurt to be in the Asteroid M) and sending Kurt to fight Rogue would also be helpful, after all he is probably the only one that could convince Rogue to come back to the X-Men side, he was on Genosha too so he is the only one in the team that understands her... And also is her Brother (The Jet was on Muir Island btw) Jubilee was in the Blue team not only because of Roberto but also because the Magneto mission was suppossed to be the less dangerous one (Magneto was not trying to kill them until Charles controlled him but Bastion was) and Jubilee is still the less experienced of the team (besides Roberto obviously). Wolverine is the most difficult to explain but even he has an explanation for it. Both Magneto and Charles have some kind of pact of honor or something like that promising to each other to never use their powers to subdue other Mutants (Magneto is specially strong in this belief) so if you notices the only time before Charles brokes that promise that he uses his powers against wolverine is to get him away but not to totally stop him (even in the old show he never controlled him, he only pushed him away), besides Wolverine is the most experienced fighter in all the X-Men and he has a lot of experience fighting against people trying to control him, so having Wolverine in the Blue team was more of a distraction to Magneto than anything, having to focus on Logan instead of in the rest. I don't think i have to explain why Ciclops, Storm and Morph were on each team, most of them are self explanatory (Storm and Ciclops) or have no explanation because is not needed, they just needed more people in that team (Morph)

My take on it is that either we get the episode we got, where teams are a bit short-sighted and and end up facilitating these one-sided fights, or they do different teams and some very convoluted things occur for the same fights to happen. As you’ve said, they probably planned the wolverine thing first, so I imagine the writers just decided that put him on the path just for simplicity’s sake. And at the end of the day, this is ostensibly meant to be a 90’s era cartoon, so a little bit of contrivance is sort of expected at this point. Especially when it allows cool stuff like this to happen!

He got Rogue and that’s all he needed. Sunspot was just a bonus.

It would have been cool if Nightcrawler was like “if only I could teleport us that far” and Cable was like “Professor, bodyslide by (whatever #)” and half the team was like “Professor!?”, and before anyone can say anything else, boom, the team all appears in Muir Island.

I absolutely cheered when Scott did the black leather joke. This show has its finger on the pulse of the audience and what they can do now that they didn’t want to do 20+ years ago. Love it.

Magneto suffers from that trope where villains make a lot of sense, but then do dispicable shit for no reason so viewers know they're evil. Magneto's whole ideology is simply too blunt. It's just genocide. And for a hallocaust survivor to want that is, well... Of course there will always be horrible individuals. Can he not see that the same is true for mutants? Some psycho could just go and disrupt the Earth's magnetosphere and kill EVRRYONE... These attacks, retaliations, revenge - all part of coexistence. Not like all mutants would live in harmony either. They're people, and people fight. Makes no sense. Charles or Magneto. Just 2 extreme ends of the philosophical spectrum arguing hypotheticals.

​@@bigl2328He’s going to destroy Earth

Jean has literally been shown in the comics recreating Echoes of memories just by standing in a room.

If they wanted to go *REALLY* dark, just send Morph & have him transform into Magneto’s mom.

Can someone please explain why Beast and/or Forge never used the mutant power suppression technology to make Rouge something she could put on (like a ring) so she could kiss Gambit and take off when she needed to fight sentinels?

Morph trying to get Magneto to stop by transforming into Leech only for Wolverine to kill him with bone claws and the x-men holding a funeral for magneto would be 🤯🤯🤯

Roberto just wanted to get it on with Rogue with 3 of them being the only survivors once Earth dies 😂 All jokes aside, Kurt literally should just teleport…takes helmet…then back to Earth and put the collar on Bastion…even doing the entire mission solo would’ve worked as it wouldn’t alert anyone…world peace baby ✌️

the nitpick about the hulk is weird why would they want him to turn into hulk all the time ? plus being hulk in certain situations could be dangerous

He just looks like the hulk/has approximated strength like the hulk. I doubt his strength is actually on par with an enraged hulk, and he's not out of control either.

Nightcrawler teleported 500ish miles in just a few minutes in messiah complex and 200 miles as his last jump before bastion impaled him

Nightcrawler of course can't traditionally teleport across oceans, especially with so many people at once, though he maybe he could do so with several jumps, like hopping from island to island in the Atlantic Ocean from New York to Muir Island.

Nando: I don't intent to react to every X-Men 97 episode Also Nando: ...

Sinister is manipulating his cells. He can regenerate, doesn’t have to eat, can expand his mind to crazy limits.

I saw it coming. That's the turn before the appearance of Onslaught. Cable is here too, watch for Apocalypse.

Nando never heard of an EMP

Magneto did a Electro Magnetic Pulse (EMP) attack on the entire planet.

Oh my GOD the onslaught marvel snap joke made me lose my mind!!! Absolutely love the game and your videos about it, they’re pretty helpful!

In Wolverine and the X-men there is a part where he crosses an ocean but he has to keep teleporting just above the sea over and over. He was pretty exhausted at the end though.

You are assuming they think Bastion is a weak mutant that cannot fight for himself and has zero plans against them, Magneto was going to get distracted by Jubilee, Nightcrawler and Scott, so he cannot he focusing on Wolverine, let alone that they were clearly not trying to kill each other until Xavier made the first step of attacking his mind.

When prof X wakes up and goes out the door i was like "how did he get up there? That's not wheelchair accessible!"

I just found your channel very recently around ep 2 I enjoy watching your reactions keep going crazy ❤️☝️

I've watched the episode a couple times so I'm going to do my best to justify the team comps for the teams, even though I agree they don't really make sense lol. So, the Bastion team is easier, let's start there. Forge and Storm are givens. Forge has a huge disadvantage against Magneto, and Storm's powers are much more effective on Earth. Morph I'm assuming went this way due to wanting to stop Sinister. Beast makes sense as they need someone to track Bastion's signal to find the guy. Jean and Cable probably make the least sense, but at the same time they both want revenge on Sinister. I feel like Jean and Scott were intentionally split up to prevent either one of them from doing something stupid if the other got hurt, but obviously Jean used her powers to do so anyways lol. Cyclops wouldn't have stopped the Professor from brain wiping Magneto if he didnt know Jean was in danger, so its really on her in a twisted way 😅. Okay, now the away team. Obviously the Professor is going and Scott is there to actually lead the team if things do go to shit. The professor is out of practice and Scott has been the defacto leader for almost the whole season. Nightcrawler and Jubilee are coming to oppose their friends who joined Magneto's side... Which just leaves Wolverine. Okay, obviously it's stupid, but you could honestly call Charles's whole plan stupid for thinking Magneto could still be reasoned with. Charles views this as just another of their cat and mouse games when in reality Magneto is going in with no remorse. If you're under the impression that Magneto is still going to be somewhat honorable and not just straight up kill everyone then Wolverine is a decent choice for the sole fact that he's the only member of the team that can be trusted to actually kill Magneto if it comes down to it. Everyone else has their reservations but Wolverine makes it clear in the episode what he thinks needs to be done. And, he does it. Also, a minor nitpick for the minor nitpick, I'm pretty sure they get the jet FROM Muir island, so they can't use it to fly TO Muir island, unless I missed something. So Nightcrawler's uncharacteristic teleporting length is at least required lol.

I think Jean and Scott need to be split up in order to have any semblance of communication between teams. Any comms they would normally have would have been short circuited in the EMP wave. So because of that, they're using Jean and Scott's psychic link to maintain coordination between teams. Morph is going for stealth and infiltration (the Sinister play he attempts as an example), and Cable probably for firepower. I don't think anyone really expected Sinister to show up.

I mean, they might have told Wolverine to go on the other team. But would he go? I think he'd go after Magneto regardless.

11:32 he said nitpicking without plugg his podcast!!

FYI: What Magento did. Magnetism affects the flow of electricity. The earth has a small, mostly stable magnetic field. We actually generate electricity by rotating wires in a magnetic field. If Magneto increased the strength of the Earth's magnetic field, our electric devices would short out. It would take days to calibrate private devices, months to get SOME mass produced electricity back, years to get mass produced electronic devices to the market, and then decades to get back to normal. And even if we adjusted the devices to the new setting there is little stopping Magento playing with dial from hour to hour until everything this side of Shiar tech is not fried. Usually, the more micro the tech, the more it is affected by magnetic fields. So that is why the prime sentinels are fried, but the old models were easier to adjust to the new setting.

I personally would not have divided the team. Bastion is a much more serious threat. But my hypothesis is that Magneto Protocals was sending the Avengers and Fantasic 4 to kill Magneto, and it would have looked bad if Magneto killed the Avengers. And the simple fact is Magneto doesn't have to provide a breathable atmosphere. His whole team can live in space. He can just space them then pick off Susan Storm and Thor. Magneto had the kid gloves on in that fight with the X Men

Season 2 HAS to have Kitty and Iceman

waiting eagerly for your finale video

The build up to Onslaught was so intense and the REVEAL was next level. Him taking out Juggernaut immediately made it feel so high stakes and then the way he takes over New York with patrolling Sentinels made such a fantastic story... if handled well I feel like it can be a banger of a story if they keep it mysteriois for the noncomic readers

16:40 Onslaught may not be the greatest character despite having a cool design and cool story. But considering how X-men 97 has a way taking elements from the comics and making it better, I do think they will do something really interesting if Onslaught is the direction they end up going.

The casual “Who doubles the effects of ‘ongoing’ cards near him” killed me since that’s also all I know about him

they couldn't use the jet instead of nightcrawler because magneto turned out the electricity, the only reason they had a jet was because the muir island one was protected by the shiar barrier

Im glad Nando's always here to say my exact comic-book-adaptation opinions back to me

“Doubles the ongoing effects of everyone around him” I see what you did there Marvel Snap fan

I think they've done clever twists/upgrades on the comic stories and so hopefully they'll do an upgrade on Onslaught as well.

Strong Guy just waiting by the phone waiting for someone to call him...

@@texcorps9432 it’s a joke because of his podcast name. Now you have made me explained the joke. And it’s “they’re”, not “their”. Now you made me nitpick your comment.

I find it hilarious that they sent the two useful omega-level mutants (Storm and Jean) to fight the assumed neutralized threat. But then sent the one useless omega-level mutant (Charles) to fight against another omega (Magneto) who is basically immune to Charles thanks to his helmet. If the plan was to remove Magneto’s helmet in order for Charles to mind control him, then Jean could have helped do that in 2 seconds. Plus her clone literally defeated him six episodes ago. If you’re going to send anyone after Magneto, you would send Jean - a proven success 😂 Not the mutant made of metal…

I've been saying since Genosha that the Sentinel Carrier had Onslaught-like qualities.

With how ahead the production of this show is I really hope we get season 2 next year.

i think Magneto was willing to rip the adamantium out of Wolverine the entire time, but it kinda felt like he would only do so if Wolverine crossed the line, which he did. that’s how i looked at the situation at least.

Great points. I think by sending ideal teams to logical missions, we could have seen more interesting battles

I was kinda in the same boat… why send the guy made of metal to fight the guy that can control metal?

9:40 That's so dark 😬 Everyone's method of dealing with Magneto is psychological warfare. 😂 Charles makes him relive the worst day of his life Nando, with Morph's abilities, would just go to him as his dead wife, dead daughter, and/or the child who died in his arms like 2 days ago.

I think this episode was the first time in the show where they used Morph's new pronouns: they/them. Rogue was talking about people on the team who've "died", and she specifically mentions the very first episode of X-Men TAS where they left them for dead. And she says something like, "Morph wasn't on the team for 30 minutes before we left *them* for dead". Not only do I think it’s cool that they finally used Morph's pronouns in the show, but apparently, canonically Morph had just joined the team immediately prior to the original show starting. And I think this might have been a meta reference to how Morph was an original character created for the show, who then "died" in the first episode, with Saturday cartoon episodes typically being 30 minutes including commercials

Definitely going to work Apocalypse in somehow

Really funny hearing you read Onslaught's card power from Snap almost word for word.

His Hulk was only that strong because Jean was boosting him.
