History LetsPlay / MarioPartyTV

* '''Mr. Doom''': The [[invoked]] DesignatedVillain and [[TokenEvilTeammate Token Evil Player]]. [[BornLucky Extremely lucky]], and has plenty of skill to fall back on when his luck isn't working out. As the main 'bad guy' of the series, he plays on most maps. He usually doesn't get salty, but when he does, ''watch out''. Mainly plays Boo (with Wario as his back up main) and Shy Guy in ''9''.

* '''Holms''': One of the saltiest players. [[MoralMyopia Luck is perfectly 'legit' for him]] and '[[ClusterFBomb bullshit]]' [[MoralMyopia for anyone else]]. Has a tendency to make… [[WhatAnIdiot questionable]] strategic decisions, such as pursuing the Coin Star at the expense of everything else, to the point where one has to wonder whether or not he's even playing to win. Originally used Mario, but later switched to Peach along with a large variety of other characters whenever they were available (namely Koopa Kid, Birdo, Hammer Bro, and Bowser Jr.). As of Season 2 of [=SuperSalt=], he has decided to return to using mainly Mario, along with Birdo and Bowser Jr. whenever they are available.

* EverythingsBetterWithPenguins: According to Steeler, the best thing about ''5'' is the Pushy Penguins mini-game. He's absolutely delighted that ''Super Mario Party'' has a game where ''they'' push the penguins.

* NiceHat: Mr. Doom's pictures for the Rankings show him wearing a Boo cap.

* CutenessProximity: Steeler cannot get over how cute Baby Luigi is in Mario Kart 8.

** In the trailer for ''LP Every Mario Party'', clips are shown from previous games to establish everyone's character: Steeler yells over a battle mini-game screwing him over, Mr. Doom receives a second star within the span of one turn, Clel rolls too high with a Sluggish Shroom, and Holms rage quits over the game screwing him over. The trailer also shows the infamous chance time where [[spoiler:Clel made Steeler swap his huge amount of coins with Mr. Doom]], Bowser stealing one of Steeler's stars, Clel falling off the edge of a bridge in a minigame, Mr. Doom rolling a big enough roll to guarantee his victory, and Steeler screaming after losing an 8-player mini game at the last second.

** Calling Peach and Toadette 'Team Tuna' when they're on the same team in 2 Vs. 2 games, even when it's not ''Mario Party 7''. Likewise, calling the tag team of Yoshi and DK 'Team Danimals' or Birdo and Toadette Team Pink. Not coincidentally, Steeler is usually the one saying it.

* TokenWhite: Of the core four, Steeler's the only white man. It's a [[DownplayedTrope downplayed example]] since he's a Mexican.

Steeler has announced that they will do another 'Let's Play Every Mario Party' series soon (later dubbed 'Mario Party [=SuperSalt=]'), which will include some of the games that had been left out, including ''Super Mario Party'' and ''Mario Party 10''. They started streaming the series on 27 August 2019 [[https://www.twitch.tv/el_steeler on Steeler's Twitch channel]]. Previous games can also be found on there, and they are being posted on Youtube on a delay.

* '''Clel''': Mainly plays as Yoshi, along with Rosalina and Dry Bones whenever they're available, and Kamek in ''9''. Chance Time is his favorite show. Relatively unsalty compared to the other three. Is excellent at ButtonMashing, but plagued with bad luck and a tendency to not know what he's doing.

* '''Mr. Doom''': The [[invoked]] DesignatedVillain and [[TokenEvilTeammate Token Evil Player]]. [[BornLucky Extremely lucky]]. As the main 'bad guy' of the series, he plays on most maps. Mainly plays Boo (with Wario as his back up main) and Shy Guy in ''9''.
* '''Holms''': One of the saltiest players. [[MoralMyopia Luck is perfectly 'legit' for him]] and '[[ClusterFBomb bullshit]]' [[MoralMyopia for anyone else]]. Originally used Mario, but later switched to Peach along with a large variety of other characters whenever they were available (namely Koopa Kid, Birdo, Hammer Bro, and Bowser Jr.). As of Season 2 of [=SuperSalt=], he has decided to return to using mainly Mario, along with Birdo and Bowser Jr. whenever they are available.
* '''Steeler''': Plays Donkey Kong and Toadette, who apparently have an OddFriendship on the side. Undisputed master of the Red Star. Even in the games without it. Also plays Toad in games where neither Donkey Kong nor Toadette are available, and Daisy in ''The Top 100'' (where none of the aforementioned characters are available).
* '''Clel''': Mainly plays as Yoshi, along with Rosalina and Dry Bones whenever they're available, and Kamek in ''9''. Chance Time is his favorite show.

In addition to taking map requests, the players have their own Let's Play projects of other games which are linked through to the main channel. They also did a project to LP Every Mario Party Board, playing one map on each of the main nine games and adding up all the stars and coins from each playthrough. [[spoiler: At 203 stars, Mr. Doom has won the series.]]

* BrokenWinLossStreak: Steeler has won one only '''one''' ''Mario Party 6'' match on the channel in the span of '''ten years''', only breaking his losing streak [[spoiler:in 2020 with his comeback win in the [=SuperSalt=] playthrough of Clockwork Castle.]] Steeler even emphatically referred to his previous losing streak right after [[spoiler:his Clockwork Castle victory.]]

* DysfunctionalFamily: Apparently, King Boo is the father of Mr. Doom's Boo. Pink Boo is either his girlfriend, wife or ex-wife, and all the little mini-Boos are their kids. This doesn't stop them from giving him crap; instead, they're constantly after him to pay child support instead of spending all his coins to support his Star habit.

** In the trailer for ''LP Every Mario Party'', clips are shown from previous games to establish everyone's character: Steeler yells over a battle mini-game screwing him over, Mr. Doom receives a second star within the span of one turn, Clel rolls too high with a Sluggish Shroom and Holms rage quits over the game screwing him over. The trailer also shows the infamous chance time where [[spoiler: Clel made Steeler swap his huge amount of coins with Mr. Doom]], Bowser stealing one of Steeler's stars, Clel falling off the edge of a bridge in a minigame, Mr. Doom rolling a big enough roll to guarantee his victory and Steeler screaming after losing an 8-player mini game at the last second.

* EverythingsBetterWithPenguins: According to Steeler, the best thing about ''5'' is the Pushy Penguins mini-game. He's absolutely delighted that Super Mario Party has a game where ''they'' push the penguins.

* InSpiteOfANail: In a 9-star handicap game on ''Mario Party 4''[='=]s Shy Guy's Jungle Jam, Steeler freaks out when [[spoiler:he is denied two stars on the very last turn due to Clel using a Mini-Mega Hammer on him (in its Mega form, the hammer denied Steeler access to both his Boo's Crystal Ball and the star that was standing right in front of him), expecting himself to lose soon. However, Steeler manages to sweep all three bonus stars, allowing him to overtake the win from Mr. Doom via a coin lead tiebreaker anyway.]]

** SixIsNine: This is also done when someone rolls three nines on ''6'''s Snowflake Lake.

** During the group's play-through of ''Mario Party 2'''s Space Land (found on Mr. Doom's Website/YouTube channel), Holms' gambit during a duel minigame against Steeler late in the game failed. Holms, who was not having his best game to begin with, then proceeded to take himself out by setting his controller to the Easy-level CPU.

** In ''3'''s Creepy Cavern, after a series of unfortunate events, [[spoiler:Steeler]] gets a big break via Chance Time… but while he's celebrating, [[spoiler:he accidentally hits the TV, ending the game]].

** Steeler starts off [[http://youtu.be/OTUBQom3aRE Sweet Dream]] extremely salty due to his dislike of ''5'''s luck-based nature. Thanks to star-spawning luck, use of items, a Chomp space, and a happening space that forces all the other players to donate coins, capsules, or stars to the person who lands on it, he ends up with seven stars to everyone else's ''zero'' around the board's halfway point. [[spoiler:Even without there being a single Chance Time, he ''still'' loses. ''To Clel''.]]

** In [=SuperSalt=]'s playthrough of Towering Treetop, Steeler eyes for his second ''Mario Party 6'' win in a decade, with 6 stars protected from Boo by two Boo-Away Orbs, winning 90 coins from a Battle Minigame (giving him a head up in the Minigame Star), and the constant Rounds of Miracles not putting him on the donor end if they even picked him at all. But the end of the game [[spoiler:saw him go from first-place contention to ''last'' place due to Chance Times at the end stripping him of '''five''' stars with no way to catch up. To rub salt in the wound, Steeler also lost the Minigame Star by '''40''' coins to Mr. Doom despite the Battle Minigame.]]

* CharacterTiers: [[invoked]] [[DiscussedTrope Discussed]] in regard to the character-exclusive items found in certain games. Steeler states that Toadette is top-tier thanks to her Triple Shroom Orb, and Clel starts playing Dry Bones instead of Yoshi in those particular games so he can use his Magic Orb. Holms also explicitly states the first time he picks Peach that he's only choosing her for her Flower Orb.

* DamnYouMuscleMemory: In their Group Nuzlocke Challenge of Fire Red and Leaf Green, Steeler finds himself frequently selecting the item bag whenever he goes to switch Pokemon, blaming this on their positions being switched.

** [[spoiler:Steeler]] pulls this off in Shy Guy's Perplex Express, as he finished the board in last place with only three stars compared to everyone else's five or six (and spent a good portion of the game with no stars, including ''losing'' the first one to Bowser)...and then sweeps all three bonus stars, giving him the win by coin tiebreaker.
** In the [=SuperSalt=] playthrough of Pirate Land, [[spoiler:Holms wins a board victory after spending a season and a half without a single official one.]]

* DrinkingGame: In some games Clel plays one where he takes a shot every time someone earns a star (stealing one through Boo or Chance Time doesn't count). Sometimes this concerns the others if there are a lot of stars being bought.

* EnemyMine: About halfway through the playthrough of Bowser's Gnarly Party, the other three players realize that Steeler has all three of the bonus stars, and team up against him in minigames. Steeler...[[FreakOut did not approve]].

** In the intro used for most games of the second season of ''LP Every Mario Party'', Steeler protests landing on a Bowser space, Clel accidentally goes the wrong way, Mr. Doom sees what game's coming up and asks Holms not to rage... and Holms immediately goes off.

* FailedASpotCheck: In [=SuperSalt's=] playthrough of Undersea Dream, Steeler lands on a Happening Space that is two spaces before a star. This space allows him to be thrown by a whale one space before the star... but there is also a chance that it will throw him one space ''after'' the star. The game spells out both possibilities very clearly and allows the player to reject the use of the whale. Steeler, failing to read the latter caveat, takes the whale and misses the Star. His jaw drops to the floor when the game decides to throw him after the star as if he didn't believe it was possible, despite the game telling him straight to his face the whale could do that.
* FiveSecondForeshadowing: Having started recording before determining who gets what starter in their Group Nuzlocke of Fire Red/Leaf Green, Steeler comments that the RandomNumberGod will probably determine that Holms ends up with Squirtle when he's the only one not interested in running him. Sure enough...

** In "LP Every Mario Party ~ Bowser Nightmare ([=MP5=])", [[spoiler:[[DarkHorseVictory Holms ended up winning]] due to Mr. Doom failing to hit him with a Bullet Bill [[DownToTheLastPlay on the last turn]] (Mr. Doom could only succeed in doing that by rolling a 9 or 10; he rolled a 7.). If that happened, Holms's Coin Star lead would have been lost and given to Mr. Doom, leaving Clel the winner since Clel would remain the sole player with four stars, the others all having three. Holms relied on sweeping all three bonus stars (Minigame Star, Coin Star, and Happening Star) to win.]]

** Also during the second season of ''LP Every Mario Party'', Captain Holms asks Bowser for lots of presents, putting lots of Bowser Spaces on the map. [[YankTheDogsChain This bites him later on]].

* InSpiteOfANail: In a 9-star handicap game on ''Mario Party 4'''s Shy Guy's Jungle Jam, Steeler freaks out when [[spoiler:he is denied two stars on the very last turn due to Clel using a Mini-Mega Hammer on him (in its Mega form, the hammer denied Steeler access to both his Boo's Crystal Ball and the star that was standing right in front of him), expecting himself to lose soon. However, Steeler manages to sweep all three bonus stars, allowing him to overtake the win from Mr. Doom via a coin lead tiebreaker anyway.]]

* KindheartedCatLover: During a Mario Party Superstars stream Steeler made sure to show off his two cats, Yellow and Green. Holms was less amused when Green's antics cost him a minigame.

* NWordPrivileges: The Shadow Stars/Ztars/Z-Stars/Dark Stars are nicknamed 'N-word Stars' by the group, and constantly referred to as such. {{Lampshaded}} during Boo's Haunted Bash prior to the LP Every Mario Party project, where they take pains to point out the guy making the most jokes of that nature is black, and again during the first playthrough of ''9''.

* NonindicativeName: They don't just play Mario Party - they have a few other Let's Plays like New Super Mario Bros. U and Mario Kart.

** Holms [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G991BLr-nzs finally achieved it on Shy Guy's Perplex Express]] - with stars and coins following suit.

** Holms tends to threaten this, leading to a {{Lampshading}} during their first 8-Player run on ''7'''s Neon Heights. By the end of that same episode, [[spoiler:''everyone but Team Dolphin'' resigns]].

** During their first run of ''Mario Party 9'', Holms threw his Wiimote so forcefully that the batteries flew out when the game force mini-Ztars on him for the second time. [[https://youtu.be/KawYXDmL8Ak?t=24m53s It has to be seen to be believed]]. This even acts as his EstablishingCharacterMoment for the first season of LP Every Mario Party.
--> '''Holms''': "[[LampshadeHanging I'm fed up with this damn game! You've gotta be kidding me!]]"
** After an instance in the second season of LP Every Mario Party where he abandoned the game over a Chance Time where he had actually been handed the lead ([[spoiler:and won the board in the end]]), Holms has vowed to never rage quit again.
* RealLifeWritesThePlot: The reason there was such a long delay between episodes (At least according to Mr. Doom on the Discord server) is that almost two whole seasons were wiped out because a hard drive crashed, and it took longer to get those episodes made up because it was harder to have everyone together to re-record it, due to real life commitments and circumstances. One imagines that this was what led to them deciding to stream [=SuperSalt=] so there was at least ''some'' sort of backup record.

** Steeler's mains Toadette and DK being [=BFF=]s.

** Calling Peach and Toadette 'Team Tuna' when they're on the same team in 2 Vs. 2 games, even when it's not Mario Party 7. Likewise, calling the tag team of Yoshi and DK 'Team Danimals' or Birdo and Toadette Team Pink. Not coincidentally, Steeler is usually the one saying it.

* SchmuckBait: When streaming a game on Undersea Dream for the [=SuperSalt=] series, the other three players are clearly trying to catch Steeler in a trap by repeatedly refusing to buy stars and spending a large chunk of the game looping around a single capsule vending machine to waste time. [[spoiler:This is so that Clel can have time to obtain three very rare Miracle Capsules, while Steeler, [[BatmanGambit who is supposed to collect all the stars]] they keep rejecting, [[AllForNothing would lose all his stars when the Miracle activates.]]]] Unfortunately for Steeler, he bites the bait [[spoiler:and ends up in last place by losing all six of his stars to the trap.]]

** Steeler, Clel and Holms have begun a group [[Webcomic/NuzlockeComics Nuzlocke Challenge]] of Fire Red and Leaf Green, following those rules.
* SeriesMascot: [[Franchise/{{Pokemon}} Serperior]], because it's Mr. Doom's favorite Pokemon.
* SeriousBusiness: In the Trailer for ''LP Every Mario Party'', Steeler's biggest strength is stated to be that he takes Mario Party seriously. (It's also listed as his greatest weakness.)

* TheyCallMeMisterTibbs: It's Mr. Doom, not Doom. He particularly likes to call ''2'''s Bowser out on this.

** Throughout the LPEMP series Mr. Doom has been accused of doing this so the others wouldn't get salty. Most of the time he claims that he's just experiencing bad luck. The bitch of the matter is a good portion of the time, if he ''is'' sandbagging, it doesn't work, as the game itself tends to favor him. (And the others are actually ''saltier'' because he's not trying.)
*** The only time thus far he ''explicitly'' admitted to sandbagging was their playthrough of Pyramid Park: he wanted to see if he could finish the board with zero stars (for some context, this is a board where everyone starts with five stars and the objective is to steal everyone else's stars). [[spoiler: He technically does, but still wins a bonus star for using the most orbs.]]

** In Grand Canal, where the Flutter Orbs come fast and furious, Steeler gets his hands on one... [[spoiler:only to find out he can't use it while Toadette's Triple Shroom is still in effect. And it doesn't expire until after the last turn of the game]].
** In ''3'''s Creepy Cavern, after a series of unfortunate events, [[spoiler:Steeler]] gets a big break via Chance Time... but while he's celebrating, [[spoiler:he accidentally hits the TV, ending the game]].
** This also ended up happeneing in 1's Luigi's Engine Room near the end of a minigame during the last five turns. [[spoiler:Steeler panics when the obstacle he is running from gets closer and hits the TV, ending the game.]]
** During the 8-Player match on Bowser's Enchanted Inferno, after a star gets bought, it moves ''right in front of Team Mollusk''... only for the team who just bought the star to land on a Happening Space that changes its location.
** When revisiting Toad Road for ''LP Every Mario Party'', landing on a Reverse Space leads to Holms collecting ''30 Ministars'' right near the end of the game... before ending up on a Bowser Space. Bowser proceeds to [[spoiler:take half his stars, bumping him down to third]].
** Steeler starts off [[http://youtu.be/OTUBQom3aRE Sweet Dream]] extremely salty due to his dislike of ''5'''s luck-based nature. Thanks to star-spawning luck, use of items, a Chomp space and a happening space that forces all the other players to donate coins, capsules or stars to the person who lands on it, he ends up with seven stars to everyone else's ''zero'' around the board's halfway point. [[spoiler:Even without there being a single Chance Time, he ''still'' loses. ''To Clel'']].

** [=SuperSalt's=] playthrough of DK's Treetop Temple had Steeler managing to get a Bowser Space [[HopeSpot to spawn a star right in front of him.]] Unfortunately for him, Clel lands on a DK Space immediately after and takes that star from him.[[note]]In Treetop Temple, Bowser Spaces move the star's location if landed on. On the other hand, DK Spaces teleport anybody landing on them to the star's location, allowing them to buy the star immediately if they have enough coins.[[/note]]
* YouCantGetYeFlask: A verbal variation: after several incidents where correctly guessing a certain fruit during Mic Minigames was treated as a mistake, the guys realized that [[spoiler: they were saying grape, not grape'''s''']].

-->''That's it everyone, we shall see you at the next board.''

* '''Holms''': One of the saltiest players. Luck is perfectly 'legit' for him and '[[ClusterFBomb bullshit]]' for anyone else. Originally used Mario, but later switched to Peach along with a large variety of other characters whenever they were available (namely Koopa Kid, Birdo, Hammer Bro, and Bowser Jr.). As of Season 2 of [=SuperSalt=], he has decided to return to using mainly Mario, along with Birdo and Bowser Jr. whenever they are available.

* AntiClimax: Occasionally when playing handheld ''Mario Party'' games, the match prematurely ends due to one of the players disconnecting.

* AntiClimax: Occasionally when playing ''Mario Party: Star Rush'', the match prematurely ends due to one of the players disconnecting.

* FailedASpotCheck: In SuperSalt's playthrough of Undersea Dream, Steeler lands on a Happening Space that is two spaces before a star. This space allows him to be thrown by a whale one space before the star... but there is also a chance that it will throw him one space ''after'' the star.
