"As an addendum, I think Smashtasm Brawl is the series I go back to the most. Smashtasm Melee's good and is the beginning of the story, but you can tell that the voice actors and pacing improve much more in Brawl.

Obviously the crown jewel is Starter Squad, but I like these comedic adventure machinima series from the 2000 to 2010s."

"Smashtasm Brawl fan-art. It's Super64 not Mario, our favorite mod. And that Ness.

This is my favorite fanfiction that asks the question 'what if Smash Bros. had good online', something still ahead of its time today. I said I'd make more fan-art of Shippiddge's machinimas."

Propaganda for each character below the cut. May contain spoilers!

Princess H

As the narrator highlights how Princess H is trying to lead Super64 into a trap, she yells at him to pipe down, as they haven't figured it out yet. Then after the narrator reintroduces her (moments after she says her name), she interrupts, saying she already introduced herself. The two then proceed to have a massive argument while Super64 just stands there awkwardly and then leaves.

Triangle

Triangle and Robert was one of those meta webcomics that were oh-so popular back in the day, and that i still love now. Anyway in a nutshell, Triangle has an actively antagonistic role with the creator of the comic.

Robert

See the submission for Triangle for the preamble, but basically Robert, in addition to a basically antagonistic relationship with the cartoonist, has a keen skill for cheating and working around the structure of the comic.

Katrielle Layton

She routinarily looks at camera three times in every episode when explaining the mystery. Here's an example:

Smashtasm

(2007 - 2012) One player's journey through the online universe of "Smashtasm". A Super Smash Bros machinima series.

Anyone remember Smashtasm by Shippidge? I used to be so into it as a middle schooler. It’s basically Smash Bros. Brawl as a MMO, with hackers.

I haven’t seen SMG4 but I imagine it’s kind of like this in appeal.

Dude I'm so sorry if you've been asked this... But I recognized your voice when I saw your overwatch videos and, uh, long story short, were you in smashtasm?

I sure was! I was Grant and Gront in Smashtasm and have fond memories of that show! The voice of Sombra and D.Va for my Overwatch comic dubs, @hnilmik, was also in that series as Princess H! The narrator for the show, @mactheactor is also in tumblr!

It's should just be a genre called

MMORPG where everything goes wrong ever.

please watch this it was the first machinima ever created in the US version of brawl

This week's Throwback Thuuuursday also doubles as a piece of TOME Trivia!  Some may recall these two oddball players voiced by omahdon in the "Hackers" short from kirbopher's Terrain of Magical Expertise series. They're actually a nod to the lovable, bumbling henchmen/grunts known as Grant and Gront (get it?) from the 2008 machinima series, Smashtasm! shippiddge's Smashtasm webseries is something we're still all very proud of our work on. It reimagines Smash Bros: Brawl as a massive online RPG world plagued by hackers, not unlike TOME -- except with a LOT more focus on zany comedy. My amount of Rockoon adlibbing pales in comparison to Edwyn's gloriously improvised tangents and comedic chemistry with... himself! All leading up to him getting his own spinoff episode. You'll hear me on board the series as the pompous, hammy narrator, as well as Kimlinh "hnilmik" Tran (Granda in TOME) once again playing a character prone to having rather creatively violent thoughts. I recommend episode 2 for starters, as it's where everything truly began to "click".
