Critically failed her perception check for her soulmate, critically failed persuasion multiple times with almost everyone in the server, failed her saving throw for tilly.... Double life was sad asf for pearl.

Joel just has that “fuck it we ball” energy almost 24/7 and I love it

Joel as an animatic's central character almost never happens, but this shows why it really should

Joel got those glasses from his Bad Boys days, I'm just saying I love the D&D designs, and the middle part where it goes from, "I rolled a 1" to Pearl and Bdubs being stressed at the table while Jeol just has this smug smile, then in the next, Bdubs is bleeding out and screaming in classic Bdubs fashion and Pearl is desperately trying to help/calm him down

The dissapointed faces right as Joel cheeringly goes "LOOT THAT BODY" just makes me cackle so much omg

The fact that Joel went to loot Timmy's base this episode makes this even more perfect!

PFFT he did ?? (Havent watched the new eps but lmaoo)

This is decidedly the best animatic of this song. It has been declared. Everything. The expressions, the movement, the mounders irl vs their characters, the way each character is so decidedly THEM! Mumbo’s exasperation, Joel being Joel. It’s perfect. You’ve done it.

A few (many) things I love about this, in no particular order: - The last frame ("Bitch!") Joel's expression cracks me up every time - The frame on "me and my boys gonna mess ya up" their poses look so cool!! It really does look like they're gonna mess ya up - Jimmy is the child (..'s toy) - Pearl's and Bdubs' characters look really different from their actual selves, but Joel's character is just The Cooler Joel - The animation at 0:32 ("and they got to go"), it's super duper smooth - The extreme detail at 0:40 ("I can perceive you") - The pause at 0:51, cutting from cool-pose-Joel to super-bored-Joel - The absolute PERFECT timing at 1:04 , when it cuts to Joel pointing at Jimmy and yelling "Short!" - How absolutely minuscule his tiny little itty bitty body is at 1:17, even when looked at through a magnifying glass - Nat 20s from Joel are always accompanied by him wearing sunglasses all of a sudden - Pushing down his sunglasses at 1:37 ("right?"), looking incredibly smug - Everyone's exhausted faces as Joel loots dat body - The fuckign last frame. it's just so funny i can't help but mention it twice

I completely agree Here are some more When bdubs shot his own foot When Joel puts on the sunglasses The frame after it says "I rolled a one, I rolled a one" (where it says fuck in big black letters) is great bc Joel is just so ready to be mean to the child When Joel is pumping his fists And finally when mumbo says "dont-"

I know Joel can't react to this because he's technically a pg channel but GOD I hope he sees it on his own time, I truly think he'd love it

I love that fact that joel, as one of the more aggressive players (even though he fails a lot-) , would be a bard which from my little understand of DnD is like the most frugal , fruity, funky, and weak ranks .

@SparrowNR

True, since bard is much more Scar's brand than anyone's. Buuuut.... bard is also a VERY versatile class, with spellcasting ability, a default buff to every roll due to Jack-of-All-Trades, and enough Charisma to speedrun every social encounter. I can very much see Joel finding an OP build online and playing a bard just to see if he can wreck with it.

@SparrowNR

6 ай бұрын

Also, since you've implied you don't play? Don't assume people play to their personalities directly. Experienced players of tabletop games like D&D often seek playstyles that stretch and challenge us. I'm a super passive fuzzy bear IRL, but put a greataxe in my barbarian's hands, and I will gleefully WRECK. The idea that someone like Joel would use a twinked out bard build to take control in a way that isn't directly aggressive but is therefore MORE frustrating for the DM, since they can't reliably predict it? That is VERY Joel.

@thegamersclub9326

Frugal, fruity and funky, yes. But bards are full casters and get half proficiency in LITERALLY EVERYTHING as well as getting access to spells like *fireball* and *silvery barbs.* Also, they are great at support. Bards aren't weak. They are, though, a bit of a joke.

This fits Joel so well! Great idea! And great execution as well. Barbarian pearl and little goblin rouge bdubs are so cool. This is very cool!

Joel insulting someone then jumping into a flute solo sent me

Mounders as DnD players is genuinely genius and totally in character

Joel is the perfect bard, he’s so silly

I'm not calling Joel short, because he's obviously very tall, BUT I do want to say him wearing heels seems like a very nice touch. I've been watching this on loop. 👁👄👁

The fact that Joel did in fact loot Jimmy (raiding Baxter) just makes this all the more hilarious!

Joel definitely just picked up bard so we can have this spell vicious mockery to bully people

Omg a combination of two of my favourite things and it’s BEAUTIFUL I was like “it’s gonna be Joel right- yeah it’s Joel” “It’s gonna be Jimmy isn’t it- yep that’s Jimmy alright” 12/10

Of course, Joel actually *DID* go and raid Jimmy's chests as soon as he was dead. So this was on brand.

Hoping he at least sees this off stream >.

I have watched this so many times now, and have just noticed that during the "look how fucking short that guy is" section Jimmy's surrounded by Empires S2 members - fantastic call back to the sheriff *chefs kiss*

I love this so much! I especially love Pearl's barbarian player design, BDubs failingto hide behind a tree, and Mumbo's exasperated face made me lol.

this is the most in character thing i have ever seen for the mounders, together with great amazing art as always. and i swear, i swear tom cardy sounded like joel for a second... maybe i rolled a nat 1 on perception as well huh-

Going into this I fully expected Bdubs to be the child but the fact that he's the guy who tried to hide behind twig is so much better

Joel is such a vibe and this fits him perfectly, I've been coming back to this video several times because I love the designs and the ending always makes me think "yup he would totally do this"

I love your Pearl design!! And Mumbo as the DM is just amusing to me (i feel like irl he'd have no idea how to dm). Also Lizzie as the doctor is perfect, I love this animatic so much

My favorite interpretation of this that i just came up with at 9:30pm: Gem and The Scotts kidnapped Jimmy. Martyn lost Jimmy at a concert. The concert was for Gem and The Scotts. The band kidnapped Jimmy at their own concert and Martyn hires some of the most incompetent saviors he possibly could. I fuckin love this video

I’ve seen dozens of animatics for this song but this is the first one to make me laugh out loud. This might be the best thing I’ve ever seen. I will now immediately rewatch it five more times

You never fail to make diamond level animatics

love this so much not only for dnd versions of the mounders which slays so hard btw but for the fervent accuracy to all of them but especially Joel 😭😭😭😭 hes my favorite mc youtuber and this just feels like a love letter to his whole vibe in servers its perfect lmao

Absolutely perfect characterisation of Joel and I love Tom Cardy too.

Good god, this is not a crossover that I was expecting but that makes it SO much better!!

This is like having 2 groups of friends meet up for the first time, a real clashing of worlds. Never thought I'd see this song mixed with these characters, but here we are. Thank you for this, loved it!

i hereby declare this the most joel-coded video that ever existed (no but seriously ever detail is TOO ACCURATE) the mounders having a dnd group!!!! the child being jimmy!! I love this so much

I love this, especially Bdubs rogue design cause it fits him so perfectly

This song is so joel-coded its hilarious XD fantastic visuals, absolutley slaps

This is actually amazing well done, i personally loved joel being the main character and he probably swears the most out of every1 on the life series 🤦‍♀️

We love Joel being unhinged :]

this is so fitting. Joel would 10000% be the one calling ppl short and looting dead bodies

This animatic trend does not get old, every version is ✨

KZread has been sending me animatics of this song for a while now but I have to admit this is one of my favorites, it's just so well animated and the characterizations and expressions and little details of who's who are all just wonderful

Joel fits this so well lmao. I also love half-orc Pearl and scrunkly fantasy guy Bdubs

I actually squawked with laughter when I saw it was Joel haha! great job this was so well done

Absolutely amazing, its perfect

I’ve been having horrible day, suddenly I find an animatic of my current obsession and favorite audio? Thank you for the patch fix, world.

into the life series animatics playlists this goes with sheer contrast to all the angsty stuff in there

Oh my god I love this fandom so much

This mad me smile so much i loved it :D Also the Mounders being in a dnd campaign is my new favorite headcanon.

why does this fit so perfectly i love it

WHAT A COMBO XD, I love Tom Cardy and I love these life series Animadics!

This is such a good fit for The Mounders lolol also Joel is spot on

Bdubs being a goblin rogue is just perfection.

Joel as bard is too perfect to properly express

THIS IS SO AWESOME ITS SO IN CHARACTER

I'M LAUGHING SO MUCH THIS IS AMAZING- SOMEHOW THIS FITS THEM SO WELL

This is a masterpiece, absolutely godly art. Can't believe how quickly you finished it too goddamn.

mumbo as a dm is absolutely perfect

I love your design for Life series merch + fantasy Joel!! the hearts on the pants are such a fun touch

This is a fever dream and I love every second of it

I just realized that the concert where Martyn lost Jimmy was probably a 'Gem & the Scotts' concert. I want to say that it took me entirely too many watch-throughs to realize that, but I just can't get enough of this animation, so that would obviously be a lie. There is no such thing as watching this too many times.

Omg been WAITING to see our faves with this song... THANK YOU!! Joel HILARIOUS, BDubs cryin', JimmyBigDog "woof" as the kid = Awesome 😎

This is perfection. Absolute perfection. 10/10, 5 stars, would recommend to a friend, no notes, I have died laughing, goodbye~

First of all I am obsessed with every design in this (barbari-pearl and rouge bdubs feel like standouts) Second of all the movements are all so great (joel moonwalking is not something i expected to see but it is glorious) All in all this is phenominal great job.

"How many times have you watched this?" "yes."

How ironic that Joel of all people is mocking the short one, projecting personal experience huh 😂

Jimmy is so adorableeeee, it was so great seeing you progress through this on streams!!!
