I saw a movie where there was a pandemic unleashed by ticks that live on and around the mouths of alpacas. Global chaos ensues, the disease wipes out 99% of humanity and desperate survivors are forced to live in... ...a post-alpaca lip tick wasteland.

[@B0ssguy]

this was painful to read thank you

[@musicman7432]

😂

[@lbright4568]

that one ticked me off

[@WyattW_]

That was so confusing to read

[@pierrotkay]

Came for the video, stayed for the Pun...

[@salmonbamminfish2925]

At this point him not grabbing the safety coin would be more content than him grabbing it

[@MrManslayerX]

The meta will flip back around eventually, lol

[@makaramuss]

@@MrManslayerX it did opposite effect, now meta is last enterence is worst and hardest to avoid key death

[@nicka5040]

@@makaramuss What if the real meta is the trolls we died to along the way?

[@BennyP1985]

That’s why I can’t watch on Twitch anymore. That would have taken 20 minutes longer than it should have done ‘for the content/memes’. Was funny the first few times, now I get bored rewatching an entire level being played 8+ additional times for padding.

[@MistressNebula]

​@@Sletchman no hints on why they're dying tho. If you keep grabbing the safety coin you don't deserve to know how to win either

[@Srelathon]

I like how Abotun made an entire Super World just to tell Carl how to properly pronounce “Abotun” and Carl still pronounces it wrong

[@ChrisMMaster0]

How is ir pronounced again?

[@Srelathon]

@@ChrisMMaster0 The 'A' is soft, not hard. It's pronounced like the 'A' in 'as' or 'an.'

[@nickolson-harris9272]

See 25:36

[@LanceWillMakeIt]

@@Srelathon the A in as and an are two different ways of pronouncing A lol

[@voidify3]

@@Srelathon just use IPA lmao there’s no need for such silly descriptions linguists have already solved this problem. As and an are two words where the “a” can either be /æ/ (“cat” vowel) if the word is stressed or /ə/ (vowel in second syllable of “comma”) if unstressed

[@Malletdude31]

I was blown away when that pipe and conveyor just appeared, I knew about black hole and broken track making things appear, but not entire setpieces like that. But when it was revealed it was dark and hidden by the shadows, complete genius

[@magneticcat1157]

Carl chose to key death five times before the level made him key death once, who is the real troll here?

[@Sylocat]

Not gonna lie, the safety coins are the main reason why I've stopped watching these on Twitch and started just waiting for the youtube uploads instead.

[@RockZerr]

@@Sylocat how ironic. youtube comments always complains about him getting the safety coin while twitch chat encourages him (atleast according to carl). But for youtube its cut together into a short compilation while the twitch viewers have to watch carl play the same level 5 times.

[@whynotanyting]

​@@RockZerr tbf, If I'm watching Twitch, I leave it in the background while I do other things. If I'm watching a KZbin video, I give it a majority of my focus, so watching someone do the same thing over and over again gets repetitive.

[@JC-rb3zv]

Intentionally die to same thing again and again to create more contents/create more bits donation. Complete waste of time.

[@xipibug]

DGR at least start with the section that keydeath him, carl was keydeath for every troll in the section with most posibles keydeaths

[@stretchedmetaphor3238]

Love the "I'm with stupid" and arrow pointing to where the streamer usually is in the level description. Always funny to see trolls before the level starts.

[@alvianekka80]

One of my favorite "A word in this sentence is misspelled"

[@ivalkyrie01]

@@alvianekka80 OG 👌🏻

[@iamabucket13]

I love how troll creators have decided that, if their levels are going to be deleted, they might as well deserve it

[@thatoneguy9582]

27:06 honestly i feel like the funniest part of this level is that after the absolute gigabrain troll that is the appearing pipe, they immediately hit you with the lowest brain “lol pit hidden by night theme get fucked” troll

[@CiaphasKirby]

Even that one gave you an out if you were observant. Right next to the patch of darkness is an arrow pointing the wrong way compared to the others.

[@csucskos]

I remember watching Tanuki Dan play that map, than Geek and now Carl. That pipe gets me every time, how come I've never ever seen that troll? (I enjoy seeing the amazement how they realize that the whole map was designed for that single troll.)

[@nicka5040]

Did DGR play this? I've seen Geek's playthrough but could've sworn I saw someone else play this one. lol.

[@thegees]

yup

[@MagiSwag]

24:42 is the greatest Mario Maker troll of all time in my mind.

[@alomir235]

7 trolly pieces has a special place in my heart

[@jimmyh2137]

I agree, that hidden pipe is cosmic brain stuff. Has to be one of the most insane and unexpected trolls of all time

[@aloysiuskurnia7643]

This one is _that_ good that everyone thought that was a glitch

[@aloysiuskurnia7643]

Tho the best one for me is still the fake edge-of-screen from the pickle one :^) But still this one is one of the best

[@ЯношБан]

It is definitely a strong contender, and for one of the most beautiful trolls in the MM history as well. It is just gorgeous

[@duprica]

The dark level you didn't know was a dark level is the deadliest.

[@TheGuyWhoIsSitting]

“I could do these in a different order” Continues to do them in the same order. “It could be different this time!” Said the scientist.

[@Rijnswaand]

Well my guess is that the scientist only wanted to change a minimal amount of variables compared to the last iteration.

[@nathanpetrich7309]

We need to test the same action twice to reduce the possibility of random variables invalidating the results. You can't ever be completely certain of the possibility of random variance unless you look at how the system (level/troll) actually works behind the scenes (in the editor)

[@arabidllama]

The Credits level has the same kind of misdirection as the first level did - the cheering crowd is used to cover the bottom part of the screen every time it doesn't matter, so that the punchline at the end can land. Great level design

[@cyntheticconjurer]

I almost have to admire Carl's steadfast refusal to either use the safety coin for its intended purpose or to do one of the doors he already knows how to do as the last door.

[@Jukantos]

The 50% playback speed STEVO song is so cursed, yet to beautiful. Amazing level, fun edit, great work from one of the two great minds in the troll community ^^

[@pokeyclawz8727]

I want carl to choose not to get the safety coin just a single time against chat’s wishes lol

[@kay_sou]

The Tuta level is yet another entry into my favorite Troll Genre: "I didn't know that happened in Night Theme!"

[@GalaxySid]

What an ingenious setup for single big twist. Maybe the greatest troll of all time.

[@Jallorn]

My challenge to troll creators: make a level that convinces Carl to not take the safety coin- but where taking the safety coin first is required.

[@momaaleksov1282]

I'd wager it's already in the making

[@uberlord983]

I know there was a red coin level YEARS ago, where the bit was that going through all of the sections to collect the red coins would kill you at the end.

[@ApfelJohannisbeere]

The stevo sounds at the key-deaths along with the sign language were genius! Also Tuta's level was awesome too. Awesome fun stream as always!

[@DonYagamoth]

Spoilers: That's a brilliant use of the dark room gimmick, I love it

[@SomeRandomPuzzlePiece]

Sadly I noticed it was a dark level the second that the level started, I got it spoiled just by being observant

[@boxcar9407]

Editor touches to the repeated key deaths is incredible!

[@NotEntirelySure]

The ultimate meta troll is makers making the safety coin an option to annoy us viewers.

[@janko1]

Me when Carl collects the safety coin for the 84757558th time: 😐

[@Earthboundmike]

Yeaaaaa, it's amusing once but I mean... when you do it many times in the same level it's kinda pain

[@freekeefox]

Wow, you and your editor did a fantastic job. This is one of your best ones. I loved the "Stevo Remix"

[@theonebutcher677]

OH MY GOD.... The Whole Level was Dark... The Whole level... so the thing at the end was invisible... this is so genius.

[@woodenspider]

I feel bad for the live viewers that have to deal with Carl’s red coin tomfoolery.

[@B0ssguy]

it was fun

[@AmethystEnd]

Always love when a Stevo level gets uploaded because it means Dave busts out the STEVOOOOO theme song again. Oh and the levels are always good too or whatever, idk. Oh and Abotun or something was also involved maybe idk. (love you both lololol)

[@Penflex12321]

Love a Carl upload! That’s bro that’s just what this weekend needed

[@whalesarefish2733]

video 1 of rerequesting the level names in the description of the videos for archiving and ease of searching in the future. (I appreciate the acknowledgement on my earlier comment, however now that I know that you have seen it, I will use the comments to keep a count of your shame, and just a friendly reminder :)

[@thephoenician4749]

I love the STEVOOOO harmonies!!!! And the psychology of making the main world seem lit up when it's really dark themed!!! 15/10

[@Rellik165]

As soon as I saw the room with all the POW blocks, I started wondering "Is this a disguised dark room?" Then 24:42 happened. Congrats, troll makers, on the longest con I've seen in these levels yet. :3

[@jonathanc8845]

Nice touch. Setting off the spotlight on the dark room pipe makes it fade out instead of just leaving the spotlight

[@scrantondangler8068]

That level twist was quite an amazing troll and realization.

[@Maelys_ACNH]

Man, what an absolutely amazing level. It legit felt like every step forwards had just as funny a punchline as the previous one, gotta be one of the best out there

[@TheAdvertisement]

8:24 The chatter who said "Year of the guts" is a chad. 16:10 Carl really just had his ass saved by the level. 26:07 That pipe set up was legit genius. The entire level has been a dark level but you don't realize it cus the POWs were lighting it up. That open space with the pipe was the one section they didn't light up. 26:48 No one talking about Carl's glasses being pushing up omg. 45:25 HOLY CRAP HE CALLED IT

[@mixel8997]

I love how Mario Maker 2 gets progressively more janky. I remember the times when there was close to 0 bugs xD

[@geli95us]

Was that ever true? mm2 was super jank at release

[@JusteazyGames]

There were at least 3 bugs that I know of found on release day. Also if I wanted to be pedantic, all these bugs were in the game, even if we didn't find them yet. 😜

[@jamesflameson]

This jank has always been there. It just wasn't discovered back then.

[@anonymouscomments123]

that was an extremely brilliant troll without any glitches.... chef's kiss.

[@tenaijo]

24:50 is the peak of MM2

[@TheLostSorcerer]

I just had a thought, in 3D world theme, you could make it impossible to beat the level if you grabbed the safety coin by putting locked warp blocks at the end of each section that lead to death([anti]softlock if the creator wished to be evil). I wonder if there is a way to prevent the player from beating the level if the saftey coin is grabbed in the other game modes...

[@sharkeep4269]

You know it's good level when there is the STEVO Song several times, including slowed down reverb version

[@karlhnedkovsky5214]

24:28 The layers of trolling here, man! That's actually a darkness level being made to look like a regular one thanks to the glow of the pow blocks! The darkness doesn't reach the pipe, therefore concealing it to you, while also making it look like it pops out of nowhere, when you go near it!

[@MichaelBond]

Every time Carl gets the safety coin prematurely my brain contracts and reels in pain.

[@jfb-]

That invisible pipe made me laugh so hard

[@supersecret4899]

This is such an insanely amazing level! The trolls were so layered and incredibly clever they totally outdid themselves! Bravo!

[@1337-Nathaniel]

Every new screen, Carl: "I hate this." This is gonna b gud

[@CapnCrazy110]

Did they really go to all the effort of making an entire dark-mode level appear to not be dark, just for the sake of one troll at the end? Absolute legends. I am in awe.

[@McBehrer]

"there's no way that Thwomp gets me" _immediately gets got by the Thwomp_

[@AbruptAvalanche]

Hang on, at 45:57 Carl could’ve tail hit the kaizo block and activated the p-switch. In the next room there are brick blocks on the floor that would’ve turned to coins and let you explore. I wonder what’s down there? I mean, probably just death, but still…

[@thegees]

be the change you want to see

[@aigzo]

I almost fell off the treadmill laughing from the pow half block glitch… trolls are dangerous… and then had to stop because of Carl trolling himself into success with his bad pow throw. Gosh I was so laughing so hard in the gym 😂

[@jondo7680]

Carl: "They are too powerful!" Also Carl: "Is this a safety coin?"

[@seanwilkinson7431]

Don't worry; in MM3, people will figure out how to kill the hit boxes of Munchers and semisolids, too.

[@mrgarneau4895]

Troll creators know that Carl can not resist picking up the safety coin. Every one of the three sections featured multiple ways to die after getting the Red Coin, which would force a key death.

[@jessevanstraaten4111]

I can't believe Super Abotun World was 10 months ago already 😳

[@SpaceLobster21]

I love this level XD Saw DGR play it and couldn't wait to see your reactions

[@icyike99]

When the entire solution to every troll is to just go right to left because they know you always go from left to right…

[@nugboy420]

[@severussnape2917]

[@nugboy420]

Omg I cannot believe I have not seen you play this level yet Carl. So good

6:45 That was one of the best trolls I have ever seen, my god.

[@KefkeWren]

Carl is an absolute master...at snatching defeat from the jaws of victory.

[@RayRhino1]

I was kinda surprised u called the Level best of 2023 so far after playing the Banned Wagon, those were some of the very best also. Although the night gimmick that was not revealed till the end was absolutely brilliant. So there is a good argument ,Year of the GUTS is looking good...Geek called it

[@momaaleksov1282]

Their, they're, there. Even though the joke is audio only in the video, it was well understood!

[@Ezkanohra]

10:07 Missed chance by Stevotun to make an anti out of the clown car by blocking the player off with switch blocks

[@themightyripples6582]

This is the second time I've seen someone play the first stage "Pow do you do, fellow kids?". This is for sure my current fav troll level in SMM2 and up there for my fav levels in general!

[@klamsy7249]

What's more enjoyable than a night underwater level? You guessed it, it's an underwater level with frog suit.

[@nickkempf6281]

That short evil level...falling through the saws...would make a great vertical section

[@minerharry]

At around 15 minutes in I realized that 25:00 minute trill was going to happen and that Carl would never see it coming. This is my greatest moment

[@SomeRandomPuzzlePiece]

Sadly I saw it the second the level started, my first words were "why are they trying to hide the dark theme?" Also I'm not late to the video I'm scrolling through all the comments

[@ruggedlemmings9163]

My favorite thing about the first stage is the Mario Sunshine music playing the entire time. :D

[@yimmyrawr]

On that pipe troll you have to also consider the fact that they had to use the smb3 ending to have the black background like that, because night theme doesn't have a pure black background normally. Super Genius Troll!

[@sleepy_granny4698]

Ohhh I was wondering why the screen was black in the background Thats for pointing that out
