So we were watching Aquaman and there was something at the back of my mind just going hey Hey. Hey. HEY. HEY!!!! and now we watched Justice League and I figured it out at last.
Atlans' Trident, y'know, the MacGuffin. The most OP trident to ever exist in the DCEU?
It has like pretty much all the Minecraft Trident enchantments!!!
Channeling? Well we haven't seen the thing summon lightning yet i (think)...but who knows!
Trident coming back to hand when thrown? That's Loyalty.
Riptide? All Atlanteans have that inbuilt! That's how they swim that fast, that's the secret.
Impaling? Not exactly but it gets all aquatic life on your side which makes extra damage against aquatic mobs kinda useless anyways. Also it's ten times cooler and goddamn it, should be in Minecraft.
So basically this entire movie is just about leveling up enough to get enough XP to get access to the ultimate enchanted trident. I will defend this take.
Thanks for coming to my Ted talk.
