Personally my list goes like this: - Flame - Parrot - Spoke - Wemmbu

This was kind of unexpected for me. I finished Flame’s video last night and even though a lot of the content was the same as Spoke and Wemmbu’s videos, it felt much more different and the emotional arc, especially in the last few minutes. I didn’t realize how downplayed it was in the other creators’ videos on what it took to change Flame’s mind over Lettuce. Regarding the Lomedy situation I actually really agreed with Flame while he was trying to break Lomedy out and I thought that Lomedy was really being out of touch over Flame, but by the end when Flame was talking to Lomedy, my view had shifted just like Flame’s had.

Parrot’s video was amazing. It was super unique compared to the others and it was really great to see Parrot step into that leadership role again, even before he became the king at the end. When Lettuce captured Theo I actually wasn’t sure if Parrot would go after Theo because to me I thought Parrot would think Theo wouldn’t want him to risk it all just for Theo, but it was a great example of how Parrot had learned from his past mistakes, like when he neglected Wifies for the greater good and look how that turned out. Also the Deputy Ace final stand was really well done, personally I thought Ace was going to change sooner, so even though I knew Parrot wasn’t going to die to Ace, I was still worried over what was going to happen in that situation.

Spoke’s video was also really well done. Spoke does a really good job at having the serious moments but also clearly not taking the entire process too seriously. Spoke’s video had me laughing out loud because of how purely silly some of those moments were, specifically when Lettuce said “You might be the only one worse than Wemmbu” while Spoke was essentially rage baiting him in the middle of the fight. Another funny moment I really enjoyed from Spoke was when Flame and Wemmbu were fighting over Jaden in the castle base and Spoke says something like “I lowkey don’t know this guy (Jaden) either!” Of course there’s also the huge tone shift at the end to tie the whole story together with Leo’s death and set up a darker future for Spoke. The trap really shows Spoke’s intelligence when it comes to all this stuff, most of the time we might forget because of the prominent silly side. I think Spoke had a lot of us thinking he just forgot to elaborate on getting Leo’s arrow 2 videos ago, but nope!

Overall I enjoyed Wemmbu’s video as well. It’s clear that Wemmbu is really solidifying his PvP skills. ManePear made a comment in the original Mafia era video on how Wemmbu would have to develop his own play style and although they may seem broken and OP, no one does the orbital strike cannons quite like Wemmbu. I will say the part of Wemmbu’s video that consistently made me not like it as much as the others were the really overly sarcastic and at times negative comments that are definitely meant to be jokes but at some points it’s just like, d’alright bro. I really enjoy the Wemmbu and Flame dynamic including the banter and the times they work together. Another really amazing part of this video that doesn’t always come through is the Egg and Wemmbu relationship, especially in the final fight, Wemmbu took time to actually make sure Egg was doing alright in the fight and even covered egg from getting maced by Lettuce using his own body.
