Didn't expect this to downward spiral out of control.

With how much sway they have over common perception I guess having one’s preferred character be validated as stronger means they won’t be a pariah.Didn’t know how crazy the discourse is,not in the DB server and lowkey thought people were being hyperbolic. Personally when I found out who won I was only annoyed for like a couple minutes before moving on with my day.
Death Battle results are just the opinions of some random dudes on the internet, it’s not that serious.
Is that Marisa Kirisame from Toho with a shotgun as your pfp?"Ruined the matchup" wow this is worse than I thought, I'm outta here (again)
Although I'm genuinely curious if things were always this bad here, or if I only noticed recently.
Yeah, I can’t be too hard on it despite my objections to the research and I want it to succeed massively. Everything about the episode was perfect minus the result, and that is what is driving me up a wall. In a better timeline, this would be my undisputed favorite episode in the entire show bar none, my own Goku VS Superman. But an incorrect/sloppily explained verdict and refusal of the crew to elaborate is what holds it back for me. Like a speck of shit on a bar of solid gold. And for that, I will never forgive them.jesus christ you people are fucking insane
I disagree with the result myself (I'll die before I admit Bill Cipher has infinite/immeasurable speed) but the episode itself was phenomenal across the board (easy 10/10) with there being what I consider to be a clear emphasis on making the ending written in such a way that Discord fans wouldn't immediately start a war over the result. It is absolutely not something worth reposting that blatantly faked screenshot over, especially when it's getting to the point where the DB crew is basically going "fuck it, you get nothing from us" (and I can't blame them, honestly) in regards to an episode that obviously had an absurd amount of love and effort poured into it.
Like I know I of all people am not in a position to claim that people are stepping out of line but like. Goddamn this is bad. Grow up.
Tell the crew that they did an amazing job and I am sorry that I can’t help but be a salty, butthurt, petty fanboy. But that’s just the way I am. My preferred character lost to what I perceive as faulty reasoning, so I can’t like it as much as I want to. Simple as.I def read that post and cringed.
And Speedy, sorry for all the shit you were put through. Nobody deserves that for just doing their job,
This remark aged wellSeems like this thread will be a very funny place if Bill wins
"Ruined the matchup" wow this is worse than I thought, I'm outta here (again)

The views are understandable and I'll try to explain the reason why I use the term "ruined":Didn’t know how crazy the discourse is,not in the DB server and lowkey thought people were being hyperbolic. Personally when I found out who won I was only annoyed for like a couple minutes before moving on with my day.

I’m sorry but I prefer Penny stillI'll take this brief moment to once again state that Princess Luna and Freddy Krueger having a fight in the dreamscape would be an exceptionally cool concept for a Death Battle.
And Speedy, sorry for all the shit you were put through. Nobody deserves that for just doing their job,even if you do have rancid takes and are a tyrannical moderator.
Ok I couldn't stay away.I'll take this brief moment to once again state that Princess Luna and Freddy Krueger having a fight in the dreamscape would be an exceptionally cool concept for a Death Battle.

So we like all agree that bill winning is stupid right? Like I'm a Gravity Falls fan whose only knowledge of mlp is like some Youtube videos back when I was popular and fan art but even I know that most of the Bill arguments are at best headcanons.
"I wonder why they aren't doing a QnA! It doesn't make any sense! It totally deserves unpaid work despite our aggression!""I actually hope the shitstorm gets comparable to that episode because maybe then we’ll get a QnA or cast. I wanna see Liam squirm
I saw it coming from a mile away tbh. I've seen this thread's attitude towards this matchup since before it was even in contention for the ballot, and I've seen the attitude leading up to it. After seeing the info laid out in G1^2 and the fact that I thought a Bill win was honestly pretty solid and very likely, and the ensuing reaction to said blog, I figured things would go bad, but 3 pages of vitriol in like a day is lol.This remark aged well
man not to be aggressive or anything, but... really take some time away from here, these comments are not nice.And Speedy, sorry for all the shit you were put through. Nobody deserves that for just doing their job,even if you do have rancid takes and are a tyrannical moderator.
P.S Want to quote a bit from another users writeup on Billcord(this P.S not me), as someone's review I read on Billcord with the ending, but it was a perfect closer to both of the characters that emphasises's the terror of Bill and the compassion and personal growth of Discord all the while issuing it in with his inexplicable penchant for deception and pooling the wool over someone’s eye in the most roundabout and convoluted way imaginable. A way that feels emotional, gratifying and powerful all wrapped up in a nice recursive conclusion.
I thought I was lightening the mood, something jovialman not to be aggressive or anything, but... really take some time away from here, these comments are not nice.
I wish I could lol. For me it's similar to people asking me to watch Game of Thrones when I know that the ending will make it not worth it. I lack the motivation to see it through.I just have one thing to say to everyone who dislikes the episode based on the results:
okay, I shouldn’t have undercut that sincere statement with an attempted jab, I should’ve read the room
Doesn’t Game of Throne like, not have an ending with the books?I wish I could lol. For me it's similar to people asking me to watch Game of Thrones when I know that the ending will make it not worth it. I lack the motivation to see it through.

You know, Discord would arguably have better version of this if we were going to be charitable and give Bill this. Like Bill's clairvoyance or cosmic sense or whatever, is less defined than Discord since he's just able to know anything.Useful or even combat-applicable Precognition (If Bill had any way to consistently see the future--much less in the middle of combat--then the entire series would look completely different. Frankly, the fact that people are arguing precog for a guy who couldn't see Gideon breaking his deal with him literally minutes after the fact is unbelievable.)
I thought it was pretty back and forth honestly.I hope there is a good Bill VS Discord animation which ends up with Discord W. Death Battle's verdict in this matchup is a total lie. Death Battle's animation in this matchup treats Discord as Bill's punchbag.
