7Hadriex started out as a video game [[VideoReviewShow reviewer]], but soon began dabbling in the dark art of making [[{{Trailers}} commercials]], generally for games that never had trailers of their own. Mostly he deals in indi and fan-made games, or obscure games from his childhood.

9Recently he's started to branch out into LetsPlays.

14!!Tropes Hadriex has been caught using:
15
16%% * AcceptableBreaksFromReality: Parodied. [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MxLgFbNPB9s "I never really feel secure in battle until all my characters have volitile compounds stored in fragile glass bottles strapped all over their bodies."]]
17%% * AudienceParticipation: [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SAB2RPJLU5Q Watch 5-minute first impressions of 3 games and then vote on which one he does a full Let's Play of.]]
18%% ** This has become a regular feature of his channel.
19%% * BatmanCanBreatheInSpace: [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z5pmxOXixf4 And so can Hadriex apparently]]
20%% * BigNo: [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yF0olK9idsk At the end of his SimFarm review, when he realizes he's been wasting all his time.]]
21%% * ComplainingAboutShowsYouDontWatch:
22%% ** Hadriex calls his evil friend out on this a few times.
23%% ** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MxLgFbNPB9s "You never really played this game did you?" "Of course not, if would have melted my cerebellum."]]
24* EvenEvilHasStandards: Apparently Hadriex believes this. After relating something the lead villain of Noitu Love had done he drops this gem. [[http://youtu.be/NfBQSQWYKH4?t=18m30s "I expect higher moral standards from a man with a name like Damnation."]]
25* EverythingsBetterWithBunnies: He has a pet bunny named Odin-ear. [[MeaningfulName Because he was born with only one ear.]] He also has a goat at the end of [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yF0olK9idsk his Sim Farm review]].
26%% * EvilLaugh: The guy in the black lab coat has been known to indulge in these from time to time.
27* TheFaceless: The being that wears the black lab coat. All we know for sure it's that it's human-shaped and has a male voice.
28* GoshDarnItToHeck: His first LetsPlay was ''VideoGame/NoituLove 2''. The villains are called 'Grinning Darns'. He can't read about them with a straight face.
29%% * SugarWiki/GushingAboutShowsYouLike: In-universe. The reason he started making videos.
30* IgnorantAboutFire: In "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TQ6jisr1Nlk&index=1&list=PLSQLREUw9vwlh8bzgvZCt_WS8615trN5H&t=1m21sA Link Between Videos - Zelda Breath of the Wild]]", Hadriex has [[VideoGame/TheLegendOfZeldaBreathOfTheWild Link]] set the grass alight and casually comments, "Survival is ''easy!''", seemingly not giving a damn about the danger.
31%% * ItIsOldThereforeItSucks: The one in the black lab coat seems to [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nZ470zHEhDI have this idea.]] Hadriex himself seems to revel in retro titles.
32%% * LethalLavaLand: [[http://youtu.be/djYXaA-GOAE?t=5m45s "Any fool can brew up a batch of flying lava in thier bathtub... Now self-combusting marshmellows... THAT takes GENIUS!"]]
33%% * LetsMockTheMonsters: A favorite trope, used to greatest effect [[http://youtu.be/z5pmxOXixf4?t=2m54s in this segment]]. It should be noted that BlackForestGames actually linked to that video during thier Kickstarted for Giana Sisters: Twisted Dreams
34* LetsPlay:
35** In ''VideoGame/MasterOfMagic'' as [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9brjomS95VA&list=PLSQLREUw9vwkSvEp4tPvu9XTKLM3vK2Z5&index=1 The Worst Wizard Ever]] wherein he attempts to play the game with the worst conceivable build on it's hardest setting.
36** His longest running series is that of ''VideoGame/DistortedTravesty 3'' which is also unusual in that it was actually a beta test of the game. The developer watched [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HCogNx-Bi_g this very LP]] before the game was released and made countless alterations to the game based on it.
37%% * MickeyMousing: Very common in his trailers.
38%% * NoOshaCompliance: From time to time he gets a good jab in, but [[http://youtu.be/djYXaA-GOAE?t=11m21s this scene takes the cake.]]
39%% * ReactionShot: Many, but his most extreme is probably [[http://youtu.be/z5pmxOXixf4?t=1m49s this one]]
40%% * RealTrailerFakeMovie:
41%% ** [[https://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=tyrian+2000+hadriex "Today we're going to explore a little indie shmups I found lying in a cyber gutter..."]]
42%% ** The clip you see has a pile of poo flying though space shooting down flies with stink lines.
43%% * {{Trailers}} his favorite hobby is making these. He keeps them in [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tpAmDWwGk0A&list=PLSQLREUw9vwmE8HYXkE0uYgR6ur64hjIQ&index=19 a convenient playlist.]]
44%% * VideoReviewShow
