YMMV / VG Myths

Go To

  • Funny Moments:
    • In the Ape Escape Minimum Gadget Use run, she outlines a plan for the races against Jake, which require a lot of gadget usage in order to win.
    Gamechamp: At the exact moment the race begins, jump off and lose like an idiot.note 
    Dr. Nefarious: I am Diffy!
    • Towards the end of Ratchet & Clank: Size Matters, Gamechamp encounters a glitch that causes the sound effect for grinding on rails to play non-stop. In response, she has it in the background for the entire rest of the video. It continues to play for a few seconds after the Patreon names are read and the screen has faded to black.
    • Her reaction to the cats in Bowser's Fury is to devolve into Cuteness Proximity-filled babbling, with onscreen text giving dialogue to the cats, stating that they "mow", with Bowser not allowing cats and saying that he does not "mow". Afterward, Bowser Jr. is given a close-up where he asks for help.
    • From the Kingdom Hearts II Low-Level Run:
      • While fighting the boss at the end of the Port Royal revisit, she finds herself having to admit that summons are actually useful. "Except Chicken Little, he's a piece of sh-"
      • Later, she expresses her hatred of Winnie the Pooh, saying that he is probably friends with Chicken Little, adding on this blunt notice for him.
        Gamechamp: Like, honestly, Winnie the Pooh? Probably friends with Chicken Little, I'm glad his dad hates him-
      • For Data Luxord's Desperation Move, the player has to succeed at a more difficult variant of another minigame he uses or face a Forced Transformation into a defenseless die. Gamechamp describes the effects of failure by making a pun on the situation.
        Gamechamp: ... allowing Luxord to turn me into a die before promptly turning me into a die.
      • She describes Lingering Will as being so hard that he can deliver a One-Hit Kill just by "vaguely gesturing at the idea of punching you", and that the bullets from his BFG "don't just kill you, they invalidate the entire concept of your life!"
    • When fighting Toad Man, generally considered to be by far one of the easiest bosses in the series, in the Rockman 4 no-hit run…
    • In the Splatoon 3 run:
      • When talking about a trick that lets you ink the ground without shooting it, thus filling your special meter, she recommends drawing pictures to occupy yourself while using it, such as squids, smiley faces, and a crewmate from Among Us.
      • If a balloon that gives 100 Power Eggs in the second hub is missed, she demonstrates a trick to make time go faster: Loading up Mario’s Picross on another Switch and playing it.
    • In the Kirby Super Star Minimum Y Press run:
      • When the run gets to Gourmet Race, which lacks any enemies or much of a reason to attack...
        Gamechamp: Now that the baby easy chump games are over, it's time for game number three out of six. The main event. Can you beat Gourmet Race without the Y button? (Smash Cut to the results screen) Yes.
      • After The Great Cave Offensive, Gamechamp acknowledges that the run has been relatively easy so far.
        Gamechamp: "Gosh Gamerchamp", you yell into the comments section. "This challenge run has been incredibly easy, isn't the entire conceit of this channel your descent into hell?"
      • When facing Waddle Dee in The Arena, screaming plays instead of any actual commentary.
    • For the Kingdom Hearts: Re:Chain of Memories With A 1 Card Deck?" challenge:
      • When realizing that viewers are probably wondering if using Donald and Goofy's friendship cards is cheating, Gamechamp has them covered as the Plot-Mandated Friendship Failure between them and Sora is about to come up... And she has an interesting way of phrasing it, likely in preparation of the fourth Dark Riku fight being one of the hardest fights in the challenge run for her.
        Gamechamp: No worries, Sora's been thinking the same thing, so in the next cutscene he tells Donald and Goofy he's had enough of their [bleep]ing stupid friendship-[bleep] bull[bleep] and runs back to tell Riku that Namine is a [bleep]ing [bleep] [bleep] [bleep]ing [bleep]ing [bleep] mother of [bleep], and, quite frankly, silly.
    • While trying to beat the Jet Run Badge Challenge in "Can You Beat Super Mario Bros. Wonder Without Collecting Coins", Gamechamp discovers a game mechanic able to pause the characters' otherwise-unstoppable running; holding the emote button. A good few seconds is dedicated to her flabbergasted live reaction, followed immediately by her equally-confused voiceover.
  • Moment of Awesome: Beating Pokémon Blue without getting hit once, and without Save Scumming, and her Badass Boast in her ranking video.
    Gamechamp: It was a terrible, INCREDIBLY unhealthy decision… but not one I regret… because this is me. VG Myths aren't mysteries. VG Myths aren't challenges. VG Myths are you. And sometimes… that means they're me, too.
    • Beating Rockman 1 without taking damage in one whole clean playthrough is already achievement worthy. Beating Rockman 2, a longer game with more difficult bosses that doesn't have the game-breaking pause glitch, in one complete run? Even MORE awesome. What truly seals the deal though, is her Rockman 3 run. An even longer game with not as many game-breaking weapons, even harder bosses, and the infamous Doc Robot fights, which was seemingly impossible for her to complete damageless, and whose whole challenge was in limbo for three years? Seeing Gamechamp finally defeat Doc Quick (and by extension, Gamma) after 3 years and 361 attempts is something she definitely deserved for all that effort.
    • Beating Super Smash Brothers Ultimate without using spirits. Or skills. On hard mode. A challenge she herself admits took 8 months (and 2 root canals).
