Ideally this livestream idea will come to fruition next weekend. The presentation of it all might be a little messy but I think it'll still be a super fun time

Get ready for finally another (just for fun) #DEATHBATTLE Tournament of Champions!! 👊

The Rappter @therappter.bsky.social · 17d

I've now completely mapped out a fan made #DEATHBATTLE Tournament Of Champions that I hope to host live on the YouTube channel in a few weeks or so (twice as big as the official one 😆)

Now it's just a matter of finding the right bracket website that will format it how I want. Surprisingly hard lol

Legendary Final Fantasy Composer Nobuo Uematsu says he’s never used generative AI, and never will.

"I think it still feels more rewarding to go through the hardships of creating something myself."

Sorry for this update being late! I was kind of busy doing other stuff this week.

Anyway, here's Blade's skull added to the Fallen of Independent Death Battle!

@deathbattle.gg #DEATHBATTLE #DeathBattleCast #SaveDEATHBATTLE #SavedDEATHBATTLE #Art #FanArt

A version of Death Battle's "First Fallen" T-Shirt design, showcasing the skulls of all of Death Battle's Independent era episodes so far, with the latest addition being Blade.

Decided to base the design on Fik-Shun's portrayal of Blade instead of going all comic-accurate.

The original First Fallen design (by @fizzvstheworld.bsky.social) for context: https://static.wikitide.net/deathbattlewiki/4/41/DB_-_First_Fallen_Poster.png

I just showed Blade VS Buffy #DEATHBATTLE to my dad

I'm happy to say that he enjoyed it and was really impressed with the production value

I doubt he'll watch more episodes but I'm glad I got to introduce him to the show with this 😊

Update, got the Team Boomstick role back. Still kinda bummed I couldn't do last week's trivia though lol

The Rappter @therappter.bsky.social · 11d

Ok so apparently I lost my Team Boomstick role on the #DEATHBATTLE Discord somehow? I know for sure I picked it up after the roles were reset like a week ago

Oh well, that sucks 😐

So now I hear #DEATHBATTLE is doing their own trivia competition for Champions Island?

You bet I'll be there for that 😎

#DEATHBATTLE EPISODE 14: BLADE VS BUFFY THE VAMPIRE SLAYER

Will the 'vampire slayer' get to 'walk' another 'day' or is the dampir with a 'blade' just way too 'buff'ed ?

I'm really excited for #DEATHBATTLE to show everyone just how awesome Buffy the Vampire Slayer is (both character and series)

It doesn't surprise me that a chunk of the demographic isn't familiar with it, I only am because of my dad. But man, they're ABOUT to get familiar 🦇👊

Aside from hitting 10K subs at the end, running this #DEATHBATTLE trivia game live was an insanely fun time. Huge thanks to everyone who came to play, it means a lot to see y'all take an interest

Oh and seeing @jumpnjetz.bsky.social and @galaxyvideomax.bsky.social pop in and play was crazy cool 😂👊

Oh and another opinion to add onto this

If being a fan of a #DEATHBATTLE fighter means you're just trying to scale "your goat" to oblivion to justify them winning, you don't truly understand that character

Part of being a fan is recognizing their limitations too, not just what makes them powerful

The Rappter @therappter.bsky.social · Aug 10

Don't worry, it's probably not as bad as you think 😅 time to get controversial with some #DEATHBATTLE takes/opinions! I'm sure it'll go over just fine 👊
