Hades' Misguidance is a web series by [[https://www.youtube.com/user/ZeldaUniverseTV Zelda Universe]] that takes the concept of Palutena's Guidance from the ''VideoGame/SuperSmashBros'' series and turns it on its head. Stemming from a joke in one of ZU's fan-made Palutena's Guidances for [[VideoGame/SuperSmashBrosForNintendo3DSAndWiiU Smash 4's]], DLC characters, Hades' Misguidance features Hades (voiced by Creator/TheAutarch), one of the several main {{villains}} from the VideoGame/KidIcarus series, riffing on various fighters from ''Super Smash Bros.'' (specifically, ''Smash 4'' since that's where the series began, though there are plans to expand into Smash Ultimate). Tagging along is the rest of Kid Icarus' main cast who engage Hades in some not-so-friendly banter.

!! Hades' Misguidance provides examples of the following {{trope}}s:
* ActorAllusion: While watching [[VideoGame/AnimalCrossingNewLeaf Isabelle's]] Smash reveal trailer, Viridi and Lucina say that her name sounds familiar, in reference to them being voiced by Isabelle Amponin.
* AffectionateNickname: Hades tends to call the audience several pet names, usually at the end of episodes, with the most common being "my lovelies".
** The Season 2 finale's end card segment starts with an OverlyLongGag of ''all'' the characters giving nicknames to their respective fans among the viewers:
-->'''Pit:''' What's up, my Pit Crew?
-->'''Dark Pit:''' How's it hangin', my Demon Angels?
-->'''Viridi:''' Wake on up, my Nature Freaks!
-->'''Magnus:''' 'Sup, Hard Knuckles!
-->'''Phosphora:''' What's up, what's ''uuuuup'', Lightning Bolts!
-->'''Palutena:''' Hello, my fellow gamers!
-->'''Arlon:''' Salutations to all my Serene Stars.
-->'''Pandora:''' What's happening, Pandora's Flames?
-->'''Pyrrhon:''' Hoo-Mamma-Doo and how do ya do to Pyrrhon's Rising Stars!
* BadDate: Invoked. In Season 2, Episode 3's couch gag, Chrom requests Hades' help in sabotaging Lucina and Pit's date. Palutena and Viridi pitch in too.
* BerserkButton: Viridi ''really'' doesn't like it when you spoil games.
* ButtMonkey: Pit, full stop. He is the most common target of mockery among the cast. Dark Pit also gets a bit of this, fitting given that he's a clone of Pit.
** Chrom also has a bad case of this whenever he shows up, something taken straight from Robin's Palutena's Guidance in Smash 4.
* CardCarryingVillain: Hades makes his villainy ''very'' clear and also quite clearly enjoys it.
* CouchGag: Every episode starts with a little skit beforehand.
* DeadpanSnarker: Half the cast is this, providing the show's main form of comedy.
* EnemyMine: Of a sort. The good guys and bad guys team up to riff on Smash's fighters.
* EverybodyHatesHades: They may have called a truce but everybody still hates Hades for [[JerkWithAHeartOfJerk obvious reasons.]]
* FanBoy: Just like in Smash's Palutena's Guidances, Pit is a huge fan boy for multiple Nintendo (and otherwise) characters. One notable one is that he is a ''huge'' fan of Ike.
* TheFriendNobodyLikes: Nobody likes Hades but unfortunately they're stuck with him.
** Pandora has it even worse. Not even Hades likes her. In fact, she spends most of her first and second appearance trapped in a bubble and they have a special alarm for her getting loose.
* FunWithSubtitles: The subtitles at the end of the opening for Episode 5 add in an extra line at the end.
-->'''Subtitles:''' (and that's why [[VideoGame/SonicAdventure2 SA2]] is the best Sonic game)
* GallowsHumor: A major source of comedy for the series. A few examples:
** In the very first episode, just as they're finishing up talking about [[VideoGame/FinalFantasyVII Cloud]], Hades mentions that he has a date with Aerith in the underworld.
** In Season 1, episode 6 Hades says that he finds the fact that Lucas' mother is dead hilarious.
* GuestStar: Occasionally, ''Kid Icarus'' characters besides the show's main cast will make appearances. Phosphora and Magnus even got entire segments dedicated to them. This also happens with characters from other series too. (mainly ''Franchise/FireEmblem'' since it has character portraits similar to ''Kid Icarus Uprising'' and there's a lot of ''Fire Emblem'' characters in ''Smash'').
* HollywoodToneDeaf: Zig-zagged. While Pit has an okay singing voice and is perfectly capable of singing the English theme of ''Anime/KirbyRightBackAtYa'', he absolutely cannot sing the [[VideoGame/DonkeyKong64 DK Rap]] which, unfortunately for everybody, he loves to sing.
* LargeHam: Pyrrhon. Almost all of his lines are shouted.
* LightningCanDoAnything: In Season 1, Episode 10 Palutena uses lightning to get a tv working so the cast can watch the Smash Ultimate direct. Somehow she avoids blowing the tv to bits
* MediumAwareness: All of the characters are at least somewhat aware that they are not only Video Game Characters but also in an online web series.
* TheNicknamer: Hades gives everyone malicious nicknames. For fun.
* NoFourthWall: Just like its parent game, the series wastes no time smashing the fourth wall to bits. According to Palutena, they start running out at around episode 9.
* ParentalSubstitute: Palutena is about the closest thing Pit has to a mother and even outright states that she sees Pit as a son. She also has shades of this with Dark Pit despite him playing for the other team (the Forces of Nature).
* ShipTease: Between Pit and Lucina. They actually go on a date at one point but it goes horribly thanks to the efforts of Chrom, Hades, Viridi, and Palutena.
* ShoutOut: Almost too many to count. But if you insist: here's a short, incomplete list.
** During Season 1, Episode 2's opening skit, the crew are getting a few things cleared up regarding such topics as Hades being alive despite dying in ''VideoGame/KidIcarusUprising''. Once they finish up, Pit asks if they're forgetting anything and Palutena replies [[VisualNovel/PhoenixWrightAceAttorney "Don't forget DL-6"]], much to Hades' annoyance.
** Season 1, Episode 5 opens with Dark Pit and Pit recreating the (in)famous "Faker" scene from ''VideoGame/SonicAdventure2'', complete with sentence interruptions.
** Whenever Donkey Kong is brought up, Pit immediately breaks into the [[VideoGame/DonkeyKong64 DK Rap]].
** Season 1, Episode 9 opens with the main cast singing a rendition of the English opening to ''Anime/KirbyRightBackAtYa''
** The final episode of Season 1 ends with Pit, Dark Pit, Viridi, Palutena, and Hades getting blasted by Galleem, so of course Viridi says the one line that's on everyone's mind:
-->'''Viridi:''' [[Film/AvengersInfinityWar Guys, I don't feel so good.]]
* SnarkToSnarkCombat: This happens a lot with the main two combatants being Hades and Viridi.
* TakeThat: While watching [[Franchise/{{Metroid}} Ridley's]] Smash Ultimate reveal trailer in Episode 10 of Season 1, Hades suggests that Samus "have a flashback and scare him away with bad voice acting," an obvious jab at VideoGame/MetroidOtherM.
* TitleConfusion: In-universe. Palutena ''still'' thinks that Super Smash Bros is called Super Bash Sisters.
* WorldOfHam: Following trend set by their [[VideoGame/KidIcarus game of origin]], every character gets at lest one hammy moment. Even characters from other games get in on the ham when they guest star.
