@sunshine purple No they're not repeats of a twitch broadcast, they're wholly unique episodes that happen live at the shows! So everyone in the audience is seeing the episode first hand while the rest of us watch on the live stream. Hope that helps!
If you put these in the description, you'll get "Chapters" on your video, which is an experimental youtube feature that some people have that will automatically mark those on the display bar for the video.
I will seriously NEVER get over the theft of the beacon! EVER. These characters are *WHAT LEVEL* and they basically swiped the Arch of the Covenant from right under the Empire's nose, flying by the seat of their pants, RIGHT AFTER the Kryn's failed Die Hard heist! Not knowing ANYTHING of what's going on, other than *oo, shiny,*
@Tosh Omni Well to be fair, I think everyone thought it was an extra-dimensional storage device, like a bag of holding. Which would destroy both the bag and the beacon and send them all to a random place in the astral sea.
I still remember when everybody thought that it was a nuke that would melt their faces off or something which it would have been with many DMs but Matt is too nice for that.
A good honorable mention would be liams clutch natural 20 to create a key for Avanticas cipher. He could only get that with a nat 20 and Matt was so smug. This roll led straight to her last scene.
@Ewo Ewo There's also the "But they were like people's canes and things." line from Nott very early in the campaign that broke literally *everyone* at the table! XD
I'm still in absolute awe at the whole beacon theft sequence and how it perfectly encapsulates The Mighty Nein as a group/modus operandi: they spend so long debating on what to do with the beacon, decide to let it go because they don't want any troubles and when the shiny cool thing shows up again they go "actually? fuck you we DO want it" and immediately pull off a perfectly coordinated, seamless and successful strategy without planning a SINGLE thing. Jester's looking for agents of chaos but really she's already got them all in one place
I will never get over them seeing this massive plot hook, going "nah," then once they see someone _else_ has it they go "wait no actually" and effortlessly heist it. What must the Empire have thought??
Rimuru Tempest and besides if they had taken the beacon when they first saw it chances are the guard would’ve caught them, so waiting until they were out of the sewers surrounded by a crowd and no planning ended up going in their favour wild as it was.
jux I feel like the more they try to plan, the more they fuck it up, like when have their plans ever worked? They really are in their element when they go all in without a plan and just let the chaos take over.
I remeber thinking when Allura showed up: Nothing shoots you to the top of the "People we can trust" list like being friends with Allura. In a time where the -M9- cast didnt know who they could trust, they desperately needed that. Even if it was Meta, it makes me happy to no end.
Okay. If C3 is any indication, Taliesin has been alive for so long and escaping death that his characters always have a big target behind their back lmao
Fjord throwing the falchion into the lava still--STILL--makes me gasp. I've seen it a bunch of times, maybe twenty, and it's been a while. Still makes me gasp.
Imagine just how different this campaign would've been if they decided to let the dodecahedron go. They wouldn't have joined the war the way they did Molly would be fine Cad would've possibly been a campaign 3 character They would've taken more jobs for the gentleman or joined the official militia of the empire More Pumat I could go on and on. That thing was campaign defining.
@Verfüncht To be fair, *SPOILER* the Oni is one of the (admittedly not so many) monsters that lives up to his CR. Matt could have killed someone even in the Iron Sheperds hideout, that thing is dangerous
Nah. Molly's death was the product of bad rolls and shitty planning (dnd's most dangerous combination), not a narrative domino effect. Honestly, it probably would've happened even if Taliesin had rolled well- they were outnumbered, unbalanced class-wise, and seriously underestimating their enemy. Also, pretty sure they wouldn't have worked with the Empire. The party seemed reluctant to do that even before the beacon.
Now that we have the Explorer's Guide to Wildemount, I've realized that the black sphere at the Zabrah spire was Dark Star, an 8th level Graviturgy spell!
@Will Morrison Also the literal first thing they did when they arrived in Xhorhas was fight an Echo Knight, before they even met the Bright Queen or before they arrived in Asarius. When they met the Muck Men holding a garrison and were attacked by Kryn, one of the assailants with Lythir, who caused the chain of events that led up to giving up the beacon, summoned two copies of himself when he attacked.
@Thaumaturgist True but it could be there were more drow on the scene then we know of. I think the Empire admitted there were 2 but there could have been more that teleported away or used the worms to flee that the nein didn't see. Granted they'd left the beacon behind but the assembly could have warded it to prevent it from leaving by magical means or the solo guy was meant to carry the beacon while a larger group acted as a diversion drawing the assembly's attention. Only Mercer really knows the truth behind the attack
@J C But why send a lower level spellcaster on such an important mission? A direct attack on a nation is no small thing. Sending two level 7 characters might not be the best idea. But you're right, though I think we're thinking about it too deeply. Ichy killed one of them, while TM9 subdued the other. And they've completely forgot about that moment. I don't think Matt named the attackers.
ENORMOUS SPOILERS FOR EPISODES 111-120 BELOW!!!! I frequently thought back to Molly’s death and thought about how interesting and mysterious his character was and how much backstory there was to uncover and was so torn between wishing he hadn’t died and liking that Caduceus existed, but I also kept thinking about the possibility of them running into him in a new life and what he might be up to, since we didn’t yet know that his resurrection was a one-time anomaly. Once he came back as Lucien, I realised how fortunate it actually was that Molly of all characters died, as his backstory, amplified by his return, turned out to be such a major piece of the plot (with which I just caught up and am desperately awaiting episode 121). I’m by no means saying that I’m happy about a player character death; merely that any other (except maybe Fjord because of Uk’otoa) would have been far worse as their story would be pretty much lost and have no significance for the rest of the campaign. This way, while we don’t have Molly, we still get to experience his backstory, except that we sort of do have Molly because the Nein are definitely going to try to get that part of him back, so it’s even more gloriously complicated. (also, then not realising that Raise Dead is a thing and that they wouldn’t have to burn a 1000gp diamond to revive DeRogna is infuriating; also that they seem to have decided that they cut off her head even though I can’t find the moment it happened so I hope they just confused it with the other corpse and correct that)
The WHIPLASH from twiggy killing a dragon! :D Immediately cutting to "Edith where's my son" knocked the wind out of me I need to lie down ALSO thank you for this this is perfect hiatus content
Good god I love how much Liam gets into character, physically acting like his character would. Scrating at his scars, turning away from the table when Trent flies by. Love it
Laura's stare at her father's reveal is priceless, and Travis' pokereface of a 5 year old, Marisha loving the drama, Liam putting two and two together. A perect scene.
"Look me in the eye, woman" Is probably my favourite moment. It is inscribed in my soul. Great selection a log of the scenes are the scenes I keep going back to...
I love so much that when Laura hits him with Modify Memory out of nowhere he kinda doesn't know what to do. He stumbles for a sec and Laura just kind of jumps right in to help him out! She gets right into character laughing and pretending the fake memories happened and he adjusts back in so quick! I just love it
@inciting a riotyep, the description says they were waiting for episode 100 to come out but it got delayed cuz of covid. Nott becoming Veth is around episode 90
Caduceus throwing platinum at Gelidon is funny until you remember he's old enough to remember when the Conclave razed Draconia and his family likely was heckled to give up offerings to Vorugal and/or Gelidon.
@hirokun He confirmed in a talks machina, that her title was a nod to the fact that her "mate to be" was killed, and he said that it was by Vox Machina, aka Vorugal. He said Marisha made a tid bit about her title being more like a bride scorned, and he was proud someone got his intent from the title. Chances are, when Vorugal died, Gideon probably wiped out a town or 2.
How’d leave out Yasha coming back to mighty Nein!? I mean, It’s literally one of the most iconic things. Or yasha just taking a deliberate beating to punish herself. Just... there was a distinct lack of Yasha in this and I am very sad about it.
AnnaHMariucci if I could screen cap right now... I’ll let you know that I’m making a Yasha moments vid. Keep an eye today or Sunday since it’s my last day of work and I can’t go anywhere now. (Also over an hour)
@Critter813 oh absolutely. I LOVE Dark Star. And even if he didn't have the full spell he already knew he wanted to have a spell of that style and power. Amazing
Oh I know. But that was 30 minutes long and I didn’t know which parts to cut so I just didn’t put it cause decision is hard. Didnt put a bunch of other things I wanted to put
Ooooooohhhhh I completely forgot about Taliesin/Caduceus’s deep discomfort with Jumanji Costco being undead, is that some brilliant accidental foreshadowing??
For those wondering, one of the Wildmother's ideals that her followers can/do follow, is that undead is twisting nature itself, and it unnatural and shouldnt exist (and should even be crusaded with, no matter the will of it) I have a druid that prays to the wildmother, and as such, believes undead need to be destroyed....Just so happens my DM decided that the campaign had a lot of undead with his civilizations.... Character feels a bit out there now haha But, hope that explains why Cad is most likely NOT OKAY with anything undead
Yeah it's interesting but it's more about the grave cleric's view on the cycle of life and death and nature and how an undead character upsets that cycle completely. In other news I think he's the first Hollow One we see.
Molly's death will never NOT be one of the saddest things ever. All the deaths are tear inducing and sad but the fact that Molly had won all of our hearts by then makes it one of THE saddest player deaths especially since they were all low enough level to not be able to simply resurrect him.
I played a cleric last year who also used the "you need me more than I need you" line on her god, like Travis did, and NOTHING in game has EVER felt better
It made me really sad at the time to see Nott's son so taken aback my her but I love seeing how far his emotional state has come now that he has both of his parents together :)
I love how there’s this powerful holy artifact that holds the secrets of reincarnation and was the basis for why the war started and M9 were like “Ooh, it’s glowy! Yoink!”
It didn't cross their mind to use Disguise Self into the likeness of The Gentleman when they first got clued in and they kept forgetting the following times. It helped to add more suspense to the issue though.
@someone from somewhere The only time they remembered was doing it to see how The Gentleman would react, but Gent had the motive to deny which made it frustrating but ulimately made it a really nice character moment for him, rather than a "Gotcha"
I still find it funny , that the whole Jester's dad thing, couldve been confirmed so much faster if someone just did an illusion spell of some sort to show his face to her mom xD
Great compilation! Sad that the heirloom sphere bit missed out where Nott took the damage to burn the dragon's reaction to allow Jester to escape though.
You've got so many amazing moments on here. I think the only moment I feel is missing is the moment when Nila finds her son and partner in the Sour Nest. I believe it's in episode 28.
God the beacon hand over to the Bright Queen is such an iconic moment, you can see Liam thinking it over in his head before deciding to do it. I think Travis kind of forgets that they would lose their bag of holding if they were sent to jail anyway so either way it's likely they would lose it. Such a cool moment.
Matt's description of the Kryn attack was so well done, I could see it clearly in my head. I got the same feeling listening to it as I did watching Bruce Wayne in the opening scene of BvS.
Oh sh!t I was hoping someone would do this! Thank you for your awesome service to the community. Is there any chance we could get a list of moments in the Description?
I specifically remember being on a home flight from an overseas trip and listening to the podcast when I heard Lorenzos death for the first time. THANK YOU for including that moment here so I could jump and dance around and be as happy as I was the first time I heard it without fear of kicking the chair of the person in front of me out of excitement 😂😂
Thank you so much for this. I can't describe how much I need this so much. CR has been one of the few things keeping me going the past few months and with everything awful and then not having the broadcast... having this compilation...I really don't have words. Thank You.
Smith Family you’re very welcome. I’ve only been home for a week and making these is helping me pass the time. There’s more after this to keep us all sane
It really would have been something if the Traveler decided to show up when she was with the witch. An archfey dealing with a fey witch would have been a very interesting encounter. Not to say Larua/Jester's plan wasn't fuggin phenomenal, but it still would have been something.

@Lock Skelington considering where we are currently in the story,may not have been the worst thing lol.
@Lock Skelington ...pocket beacon?
Mathew really knows how to weave a good story xD
@Tosh Omni Well to be fair, I think everyone thought it was an extra-dimensional storage device, like a bag of holding. Which would destroy both the bag and the beacon and send them all to a random place in the astral sea.
I still remember when everybody thought that it was a nuke that would melt their faces off or something which it would have been with many DMs but Matt is too nice for that.

@Ewo Ewo There's also the "But they were like people's canes and things." line from Nott very early in the campaign that broke literally *everyone* at the table! XD
Just started watching this, knowing this moment is left out makes me sad. Such a clutch moment literally changing the way the campaign played out.
Dont forget that even with nat20, it is only possible due to Caleb's 20 int +5 modifier
oh shit OP missed that
I'm still in absolute awe at the whole beacon theft sequence and how it perfectly encapsulates The Mighty Nein as a group/modus operandi: they spend so long debating on what to do with the beacon, decide to let it go because they don't want any troubles and when the shiny cool thing shows up again they go "actually? fuck you we DO want it" and immediately pull off a perfectly coordinated, seamless and successful strategy without planning a SINGLE thing.
Jester's looking for agents of chaos but really she's already got them all in one place
I will never get over them seeing this massive plot hook, going "nah," then once they see someone _else_ has it they go "wait no actually" and effortlessly heist it. What must the Empire have thought??
Watching 5 months after this was posted their latest fight against an astral sea monster is the textbook def. of what u described
jux I’ve always wondered what the other sets of his armour was
Rimuru Tempest and besides if they had taken the beacon when they first saw it chances are the guard would’ve caught them, so waiting until they were out of the sewers surrounded by a crowd and no planning ended up going in their favour wild as it was.
jux I feel like the more they try to plan, the more they fuck it up, like when have their plans ever worked? They really are in their element when they go all in without a plan and just let the chaos take over.
Also subtitled "Times Marisha Would Probably Climb the Furniture"
Laura tricking Isharnai is the moment Taliesin realized his immortality was threatened.
This is the best cr related comment I've ever seen
I remeber thinking when Allura showed up: Nothing shoots you to the top of the "People we can trust" list like being friends with Allura. In a time where the -M9- cast didnt know who they could trust, they desperately needed that. Even if it was Meta, it makes me happy to no end.
love the focus on caleb during the spire attack, never noticed that before even with rewatchings!!!
Thaumaturgist I think that may have been Ormid haas
I was just thinking that! You don’t really see these things until you rewatch old episodes
M
Thaumaturgist maybe it’s his mean voice, every other time we’ve heard that thong talk was when he was trying to be charming.
@Tarjah Ichy also had a different voice back then!
Me neither! I was like "Oh crap! He recognized Icky back then?! How did I miss his reaction?!"
The time when Cad got killed by the explosive arrow, I think was the first time I've seen Taliesin get so genuinely frustrated for a bit there
Okay. If C3 is any indication, Taliesin has been alive for so long and escaping death that his characters always have a big target behind their back lmao
he looked SO pissed off.
Fjord throwing the falchion into the lava still--STILL--makes me gasp. I've seen it a bunch of times, maybe twenty, and it's been a while. Still makes me gasp.
Jester: "What if The Gentleman is my dad?"
Cad after this discussion has been going for well over 10 minutes: "Wait, what?"
"Your mother knows the gentleman, thats so cool'
Imagine just how different this campaign would've been if they decided to let the dodecahedron go.
They wouldn't have joined the war the way they did
Molly would be fine
Cad would've possibly been a campaign 3 character
They would've taken more jobs for the gentleman or joined the official militia of the empire
More Pumat
I could go on and on. That thing was campaign defining.
@Verfüncht To be fair, *SPOILER* the Oni is one of the (admittedly not so many) monsters that lives up to his CR. Matt could have killed someone even in the Iron Sheperds hideout, that thing is dangerous
@Emerson Yeah, as soon as Lorenzo cast Cone of Cold, I was like: “Oh god, this is bad”
Would there be no peace talks because M9 didn’t bring back the beacon to the Dynasty?
Nah. Molly's death was the product of bad rolls and shitty planning (dnd's most dangerous combination), not a narrative domino effect. Honestly, it probably would've happened even if Taliesin had rolled well- they were outnumbered, unbalanced class-wise, and seriously underestimating their enemy.
Also, pretty sure they wouldn't have worked with the Empire. The party seemed reluctant to do that even before the beacon.
@al swearengen I've already addressed how randomness played into these things and would've made the alternative possibilities unpredictably different
Now that we have the Explorer's Guide to Wildemount, I've realized that the black sphere at the Zabrah spire was Dark Star, an 8th level Graviturgy spell!
@Thaumaturgist Trent Ikithon?
Damn, that's a rad name
@Will Morrison Also the literal first thing they did when they arrived in Xhorhas was fight an Echo Knight, before they even met the Bright Queen or before they arrived in Asarius. When they met the Muck Men holding a garrison and were attacked by Kryn, one of the assailants with Lythir, who caused the chain of events that led up to giving up the beacon, summoned two copies of himself when he attacked.

I don't think Matt named the attackers.
One moment I wish were on here is Caduceus scaring his sister with the bone flute. Not only hilarious, but also so emblematic of family dynamics.
Dani Gee No need to be sorry, just a moment I personally love! Thank you so much for putting this together!
Will Morrison sorry about that. Me being an only child did not think about that 🤣
hahaha *casually skips over molly’s death scene because i’m not dealing with that again*

Dani Gee but I don’t wanna
"I turn into an alley."
"...you can turn into an alley?"
*gestures transforming into an alley*
Honestly Tal has some of the dumbest/funniest lil one liners like this, I missed this one on the first watch, thanks for putting it in this edit 😊😊
It’s still hilarious to me that Jester’s parentage was revealed because of an off joke by Beau
The WHIPLASH from twiggy killing a dragon! :D Immediately cutting to "Edith where's my son" knocked the wind out of me I need to lie down

The only moments that were missed was everyone meeting Pumat for the first time.
*cries in Kiri*
@inciting a riotyep, the description says they were waiting for episode 100 to come out but it got delayed cuz of covid. Nott becoming Veth is around episode 90
@Conner Paul that happened 10 months ago?
That deserves its own video. It needs to be seen in its full form.
They missed Nott becoming Veth
This is great, really helpful this quarantine
20:06 omg I'd forgotten how excited Sam got hahaha he's so adorable XD
I had too! He and Laura both got so excited and it makes me very happy
Caduceus throwing platinum at Gelidon is funny until you remember he's old enough to remember when the Conclave razed Draconia and his family likely was heckled to give up offerings to Vorugal and/or Gelidon.
@hirokun He confirmed in a talks machina, that her title was a nod to the fact that her "mate to be" was killed, and he said that it was by Vox Machina, aka Vorugal. He said Marisha made a tid bit about her title being more like a bride scorned, and he was proud someone got his intent from the title.
Chances are, when Vorugal died, Gideon probably wiped out a town or 2.
@Hyunllx Did Matt ever confirm they were mates? I thought it was a joke
Nitewulf Considering it was a different continent , Cad didnt know about Gelidon and Cad’s sheltered life he probably didnt know but cool head cannon
Can I get a bit more background? I’m not up to date on season 1
- did you mean that cad is old enough or that Gelidon is old enough?
@Fox Hound1878 Yes, but Vorugal and Gelidon were mates. Very likely that she supported his rise from the north.
I still can't believe that Nott accidentally killed Cad
@Bianca T. I don’t think she’d have used up all of her other spell slots if she’d lost it.
Ben Tiller I’m playing a cleric in my own campaign and just got a pearl of power last session, and wow was I excited, such a clutch item.
Fjord got off lightly at the beach - if the Gorgon hadn't moved, it would have happened again - clip-share.net/video/Tmz4TS3Div8/video.html :D
At the time, I was like I CANNOT BELIEVE- but now I’m like, “yeah, sounds about right for the Mighty Nein...”
RogueHippie13 If Jester didn’t have the Pearl of Power, Taliesin would’ve had to create a third character.
How’d leave out Yasha coming back to mighty Nein!? I mean, It’s literally one of the most iconic things.
Or yasha just taking a deliberate beating to punish herself.
Just... there was a distinct lack of Yasha in this and I am very sad about it.
This tho
Dani Gee now I’m very happy haha thank you
AnnaHMariucci here you go clip-share.net/video/lvwnS90-hcw/video.html
AnnaHMariucci if I could screen cap right now...
I’ll let you know that I’m making a Yasha moments vid. Keep an eye today or Sunday since it’s my last day of work and I can’t go anywhere now.
(Also over an hour)
Just imagine how different the story would have been had they not given the beacon to the bright queen. It's so freaking amazing!
Marina Emmanouilidou imagine if they hadn’t taken the beacon at all, would’ve been so different
The crowd: *Chanting* “Fjord! Fjord! Fjord! Fjord!”
Travis: *Leans into the mic smirking* “19”
The crowd: *just goes fucking wild*
"I have so many flowers to give to her" and "I killed my whole family, I'll throw you under a bridge" didn't make the cut, a travesty
I forget the episode, but Caduceus using Command on that golem to tell it to turn OFF was pretty clutch.
I almost cried when Nott/Veth was talking to Luke. Jesus Christ my EMOTIONS
Wow, looking back at that attack on the tower, that is absolutely one of Matt's new spells. One of the black hole spells
@Critter813 oh absolutely. I LOVE Dark Star. And even if he didn't have the full spell he already knew he wanted to have a spell of that style and power. Amazing
Dark star and Im envious of how good of a writer he is for introducing it *that* early
The amount of work that must've gone into these supercuts...
Thanks for making my isolation much more bearable ❤️
David Rowan saaaaame this is helping me deal with no people and no crit role!
You missed the greatest part of the series where Jester and Nott vandalized the Platinum Dragon and got away with it by the skin of their teeth
Oh I know. But that was 30 minutes long and I didn’t know which parts to cut so I just didn’t put it cause decision is hard.
Didnt put a bunch of other things I wanted to put
Ooooooohhhhh I completely forgot about Taliesin/Caduceus’s deep discomfort with Jumanji Costco being undead, is that some brilliant accidental foreshadowing??
For those wondering, one of the Wildmother's ideals that her followers can/do follow, is that undead is twisting nature itself, and it unnatural and shouldnt exist (and should even be crusaded with, no matter the will of it)
I have a druid that prays to the wildmother, and as such, believes undead need to be destroyed....Just so happens my DM decided that the campaign had a lot of undead with his civilizations....
Character feels a bit out there now haha
But, hope that explains why Cad is most likely NOT OKAY with anything undead
Yeah it's interesting but it's more about the grave cleric's view on the cycle of life and death and nature and how an undead character upsets that cycle completely. In other news I think he's the first Hollow One we see.
I feel like it's more about who Caduceus is and his role in life. Can't make tea if the bags get out of the pot and walk away!
The moment Caleb returns the dodecahedron to the bright queen was so tense & great! What an awesome turn of events for the game & story
Molly's death will never NOT be one of the saddest things ever. All the deaths are tear inducing and sad but the fact that Molly had won all of our hearts by then makes it one of THE saddest player deaths especially since they were all low enough level to not be able to simply resurrect him.
You’re doing gods’ work, Dani.
I played a cleric last year who also used the "you need me more than I need you" line on her god, like Travis did, and NOTHING in game has EVER felt better
53:44 "Mommy, where were you", oh god Matt please don't do that to me. Right in the heartstrings.
Okay, first, I love this.
BUT you forgot one- Caleb killing the Laughing Hand...
Caleb had some of the most epic kills in the campaign.... Lorenzo, The laughing hand, Vokodo.
Bro Felix #TheCat tbh I fjorgot many things 🤣
I love seeing the growth of Sam's flask
Loved the zoom in on Caleb, I've not done a rewatch so my eyes were already keyed in on him, and you knew exactly what I was thinking.
One of my favorites was always Yasha’s first rage. Everyone’s excitement and the proudness and joy on Travis’ face is amazing
It made me really sad at the time to see Nott's son so taken aback my her but I love seeing how far his emotional state has come now that he has both of his parents together :)
1:29:32 Travis' excitement there is so infectious and funny!
I love how there’s this powerful holy artifact that holds the secrets of reincarnation and was the basis for why the war started and M9 were like “Ooh, it’s glowy! Yoink!”
Love Travis face when laura is doing the cupcake thing
YO MA WIFE IS FOCKING AWESOME
It didn't cross their mind to use Disguise Self into the likeness of The Gentleman when they first got clued in and they kept forgetting the following times. It helped to add more suspense to the issue though.
@someone from somewhere The only time they remembered was doing it to see how The Gentleman would react, but Gent had the motive to deny which made it frustrating but ulimately made it a really nice character moment for him, rather than a "Gotcha"
Jono Casuyon I remember Laura being really annoyed on talks when she realised that
I still find it funny , that the whole Jester's dad thing, couldve been confirmed so much faster if someone just did an illusion spell of some sort to show his face to her mom xD
27:11 will get me every. Single. Time.
Travis' face at the essek reveal is priceless
Great compilation! Sad that the heirloom sphere bit missed out where Nott took the damage to burn the dragon's reaction to allow Jester to escape though.
2:01:34 HOW DID MATT MAKE THAT NOISE
It looked like he maybe hit the table with his fist and just accentuated it with his voice
You've got so many amazing moments on here. I think the only moment I feel is missing is the moment when Nila finds her son and partner in the Sour Nest. I believe it's in episode 28.
Those 0-to-100 responses at 1:29:20 are just.. amazing
The second moment, with the tower, my first thought was, “FUCK, there’s a high level campaign over there, RUN!”
I will never be over the look of horror on Talisen's face during the entire cupcake sequence.
1:52 Just so we're all on the same page, that was the new Dark Star spell from the wildemount campaign guide right? RIGHT???
28:30 can we just appreciate this absolute unit for throwing this out there?
Marisha: But we have many gifts to bring!
Liam: ............jifs
Caleb really was the MVP of the Darktow/Avantika arc
Dude Caleb is the MVP this campaign wow so many epic moments
"YOUR DAD'S NAME IS BOB ?????"
(yes this is was I am chosing to remember from this great compilation)
God the beacon hand over to the Bright Queen is such an iconic moment, you can see Liam thinking it over in his head before deciding to do it. I think Travis kind of forgets that they would lose their bag of holding if they were sent to jail anyway so either way it's likely they would lose it. Such a cool moment.
hey you’re a saint! don’t stop being awesome please!!!
Laura Bailey is a modern day Raven Queen!! Ascended to Godhood
THESE ARE SO GREAT! I love this wow
theres a moment where Bo asks fjord about paying the crew and he jokingly says "The crew doesnt make it back alive" where is it?
Matt's description of the Kryn attack was so well done, I could see it clearly in my head.
I got the same feeling listening to it as I did watching Bruce Wayne in the opening scene of BvS.
Oh sh!t I was hoping someone would do this! Thank you for your awesome service to the community. Is there any chance we could get a list of moments in the Description?
Britannia Dix I’ll make another comment and have it pinned like I did with Scanlan songs.
(Or you can too if you have time)
@Dani Gee I do plan to watch this soon, so I will leave a list in reply, if that helps? And thank you again!
Yeah I was thinking about adding the list when i get the chance.
The Virus still has me working lol
I specifically remember being on a home flight from an overseas trip and listening to the podcast when I heard Lorenzos death for the first time. THANK YOU for including that moment here so I could jump and dance around and be as happy as I was the first time I heard it without fear of kicking the chair of the person in front of me out of excitement 😂😂
Thank you so much for this. I can't describe how much I need this so much. CR has been one of the few things keeping me going the past few months and with everything awful and then not having the broadcast... having this compilation...I really don't have words. Thank You.
Smith Family you’re very welcome. I’ve only been home for a week and making these is helping me pass the time.
There’s more after this to keep us all sane
Rewatching this after the end of the campaign, real nostalgia from the early moments.
The audience reaction to the Essek reveal is just…chef’s kiss.
i thought this was gonna be funny but now im crying in da club.
its okay its good tho
It really would have been something if the Traveler decided to show up when she was with the witch. An archfey dealing with a fey witch would have been a very interesting encounter. Not to say Larua/Jester's plan wasn't fuggin phenomenal, but it still would have been something.
1:35:20 is such a touching moment but it’s so funny to me because of that Talks episode where Sam is annoyed that the spell is named after Caleb.
I was SO hoping this would’ve included Nott & Beaus race up the tree, that was hilarious!!
The true Orphanmaker was Nott, all along.
The emotional whiplash in this video tho
1:29:18 the best husband and wife moment - also the fact they talk about d&d over the weekend is so cute 💕
"traveller, tell the wildmother that Caduceus needs help" always gets me
honestly "Eyes never shut" is some pretty baller last worlds
1:31:03
Nott forgot to look for traps.
Vex it was going to look for a trap but Percy Disturbed the corpse which caused the thing.
The amount of voices being made for these by people is incredible. Matt dressing up as McCree, I LOST IT. LOOOOST IT.
I still think that "The Tenants of Chairism" coming up at that time was the funniest thing
just occurred to me - the damn party could have had a baby manticore
Thanking you ahead of time for putting this together!!
avanticas trial will never not be so chilling!
I never noticed that Liam acted out Caleb's reaction to the mage that came down
Thank you Dani!!! Been rewatching this numerous times this past few weeks.
I can't wait for this Thursday!!!
50:22 sams performance here was INCREDIBLE. Had a good cry to that.
You have done God's work with this compilation lol, thank you xD
Anyone else notice the glob of spit that flies out of Matt's mouth at 1:21:56? I love how INCREDIBLY in character everyone is at that moment
Thank you :) just what I needed on a Thursday:)
I forgot how epic the Zauberspire collapse was!!!!! Thank you for this video :)
Thank you so much for putting this together!!
Oh you magnificent person. Thank you for this!
1:12:00 I love when Travis becomes Deep Voice Travis.
