32:44 Duncan having a Zylus moment searching for "cheese"

[@orangesilver8]

Honestly there should be a cheese block in Minecraft. That one just should be there.

[@prodtfm]

@@orangesilver8not to mention how many mod packs duncan has probably played with cheese

[@Chameleonred5]

To be fair, cheese has been in several of the mods he's played.

[@nby333]

@@prodtfm Yeah but known Minecraft veteran Zylus must have also played many mods before with Charmander blocks.

[@swift0sword679]

I mean there is cheese blocks in the lastest april fools update

[@TheSurprisePizza]

I was hoping somebody would suggest "The Bristol Pusher". That's my favourite cryptid.

[@jasonfall1550]

I think the Swedish Squaredog should be a new cryptid

[@AceArata]

Underrated comment

[@Notski]

Malmö Squaredog*

[@Gravyon]

The Fresno Night Crawler might be the best build Rythian has done in this series. The square dog was pretty good too.

[@dudekazoo]

His hollow knight was really good.

[@nyx4833]

ok but Hellstrand's Hellhound would be an adorable plushie

[@ZenkaiAnkoku2]

I absolutely love his lil Hellhound

[@xRandomSarahx]

That's definitely something for the Yogs store!

[@quinnlee-newbury9003]

Lewis was thinking of the Yule Lads with the elves, which are actually trolls but the kid friendly-fication of them has resulted in them looking like lil elves

[@foreng3095]

All the Cox'n'Crendor enjoyers remember the Yule Lads.

[@HeinerGunnar]

Eh, nordic traditions didn't really have clear distinctions between trolls/elves/goblin/kobolds, they're all vaguely the same thing

Nah, they're little guys.

Rythian in these is such a riot. Love the little pochita hellhound potato dog, and i love the pencil elves

32:09 They didn't have to do Rythian dirty like that. He's still a lil guy

[@SpaceBiscuits]

Hellhound? No. Lil’ Guy? Yyeeeeesssssssssss!!

[@biostarkick7]

Combine that with the meme at 26:59, I think whoever edited this doesn't like Rythian.

[@ze_rubenator]

@@biostarkick7 It's just a bit of craic, mate.

[@bakariwolf3835]

Square dog is just too cute. Rythian gets this one for sure. Also Rythian's just fun in general.

[@jordinagel1184]

To be fair, Will Ferrell does sometimes strike me as a cryptid

[@Bardic_Knowledge]

I actually learned from an old coworker that there's a shot at the end of Elf wherein Will Farrell has his picture taken in a pose to evoke the famous Bigfoot pictures.

[@GameFanatic]

I ABSOLUTLY, genuinely laughed out loud at 28:42. Nilesy, hysterical.

[@ST-vt4nu]

Yeah genuinely one of the funniest jokes I've heard in a while

[@dondemitri3760]

i was in stitches lol

[@stone5against1]

Duncan's button never working anymore will never be not funny haha

[@IndelacioLetsPlay]

I would've guessed that the beast of bodmin moor was toothless. Also those pikaCHEW obviously was the name.

[@beardedbear9901]

Dang it, you beat me to the name! 😂

[@Trick.Sparrow]

Pikachupacabra?

[@panda93247]

This series NEEDS Rythian!!! He makes things so much more interesting!!!!

[@Efreeti]

Shoutout to the editors for the Certified Lil' Guy™ stamp! The cryptid pikachus should obviously be called pikaCHEWs

[@TheMaidenlessOne]

I love the square dog, but I cant believe no one noticed how close it was to pochita from chainsaw man, all he was missing was the chainsaw, and technically pochita is a hell hound. (sort of)

[@stone5against1]

I really liked the square dog, such an accurate depiction of that very popular cryptid!

[@Twitchi]

I think the form of Square Dog really captures the hellish nature of a large animal rampaging through a city

[@ferrisaggron160]

It looks a lot like Pochita from Chainsaw Man

[@n0.0ne48]

The square dog saving the best for last I liked its paws

[@Thromash]

Drop Bears don't count Ben, they're real. I'm Australian & we'd never lie about that.

[@Kenifee]

Lewis actually killed it this episode with the builds

[@philistineswine]

What's crazy is that at one point gorillas were considered cryptids by the Western world. Imagine exploring the Congo and coming across a troop of them

[@maxboot2115]

If you thought the little Icelandic elves were cool before, wait until you learn they're called the YULE LADS. No, seriously. That's their name.

[@CzechAvailabilitie]

And each one has a gimmick. One of them has a huge nose, one is a peeping tom, one likes to slam doors in the night, one of them steals and eats candles, one of them is very short etc. etc. They have names like Skyr Gobbler, Meat Hook, Stumpy. Etc.

[@Muongoing.97c]

@@CzechAvailabilitiespoon licker is my favourite

[@Mystic-Midnight]

@@CzechAvailabilitie This feels like something I would've seen in a Sam O'Nella Academy video in like 2018

[@GlidusFlowers]

And they’re not elves, they’re trolls. The elves are a way different thing

[@CzechAvailabilitie]

They used to be evil until some Icelandic sailors who had visited the Netherlands in the mid 20th century came home and said "Hey over there in the mystical east of Holland there's a saint who leaves gifts in shoes in December lets do that to our kids but use monsters from our own Folklore and have thirteen of them so it will be even better". Before the canonical 13 were established by a popular poem in the 1932 basically every fjord and valley had their own set of Yule Lads which varied in numbers with some Lads overlapping between places but many being totally unique to one location. Eventually they became basically just Coca Cola Santa Claus but mischievous and stupid. Also they own a giant cat that eats everyone who doesn't clothes for Christmas and their mother is a legendary child eating ogress first mentioned in The Poetic Edda in the 13th century.

[@MCBunkerwelt]

When Boba said that she was no "Todd Googler" my insides melted. Not only does she know all the old references, she still watches the new content and keeps up with it. She truly is amazing, isn't she?

[@shrimpisdelicious]

An Minecraft Build episode where the theme is “L’il Guys” would be pretty cute.

[@Poyni]

Ghidorah being called a hydra and then confused for sock puppets just hurt my soul

[@ehecatlruiz349]

but it's also kinda funny that when Nilesy built the "puppets" they came out looking super close to what Lewis had built, so I kinda understood boba's confussion XD

[@D0Gdidthemath]

Rythian just seems to know them as "the meme dragon"

[@nekhumonta]

The prompt was Hydra, not Ghidorah

[@redy.velvet]

​@@nekhumontathe prompt was based on a meme, and the dragon in the meme is Ghidorah

[@Poyni]

@@nekhumonta the meme they were referencing was of Ghidorah

[@zonedereve]

Lewis Derp hydra was the best build but Ben's Fresno night crawler was my favorite build. Actually spooky!!

[@VegetaLF7]

Fun fact, the 3 headed dragon/hydra meme that they're referencing is King Ghidorah from the Godzilla films, specifically making fun of the King of the Monsters film from a few years back in which Ghidorah's third head is kind of a dumbass in it.

[@DigitalxGamer]

Good ol' Kevin

[@eddmario]

And if I'm not mistaken... ...that dumbass head is the same one that controls MechaGodzilla in Godzilla vs King Kong

[@Grazden]

Holy hell, Nilesy' US map caused me physical damage.

[@rahcek]

I was scrolling comments early and disparagingly wondered how well you could recreate Scotland in Minecraft... and then I saw Nilesy's map and immediately took 4d10 psychic damage

for anyone wondering what zombie fires are :''So-called 'zombie fires' have been burning under the thick layers of snow across parts of Canada at an unprecedented rate. These flameless smoulders naturally die out before spring arrives, but a combination of factors have raised fears that they could become fully-fledged wildfires come the warmer months.''

[@Girzi]

Unironically, I love Rythians builds because they are so cute. and that hydra meme with them made my day XD

[@wizzzard999]

28:41 "They killd this elf!" I was on the floor for a good 5 minutes XD

[@Dxm2000andNinju]

"this guy's thighs are three elves thick" sounds weirdly like it could be a compliment for like... orcs or bugbear or something. "He's so muscular/hot"/a replacement for "could bench a house" and I love it ^^

[@fishpop]

Or it could be something from DeviantArt where a person has legs so fat they're wider than a house

[@llamawaffles5559]

2 Gartic Phone episodes this week? And Boba is in both?! Holy crap this made my week! Thanks whoever organized this (prolly Ben lol)

[@caldx5067]

[@balinlesavage]

Honestly tho. The square dog made me laugh hardest. Which means its my favorite

yay more boba

[@SavageFlumps]

Boba humor is best humor

[@ScalliePro]

I love Rythian's square animal build. They are amazing.

[@PanSpaceman]

You fools, the mini Pikas would be Pika-Chews! Also kinda sad Boba didn't stumble upon Tsuchinoko when she was a Todd Googler, I think she'd love that cryptid (and making it)

[@joripien]

being presented with a three-headed dragon and writing down 'sock puppets' has to be one of the worst guesses in this whole series

[@Kragnar1]

Lewis’ three headed hydra was the best build… followed by Rythian’s elves. That joke got a lot of mileage.

[@leaderofthenewbencrusades746]

If it's something Ben knows, then its immediately cool.

[@EvilNoodles]

I love you Duncan for including cornish folklore!!!

[@fishpop]

If i was prompted to do a Thunderbird i'd have done Thunderbird 2 to be funn.

[@Casterborous]

Speaking of cryptids and scary things: the reason the uncanny valley exists in human perception is because we evolved the ability to be able to detect something that looks like a human but isn't

[@luketfer]

Though it is suggested this was a way to identify 'sick' humans, ones suffering from a variety of illnesses both mental and physical, that might be dangerous to other early humans. So it's less 'there were things that mimic humans' and more 'Gerry over there is acting weird, doing strange things and frothing at the mouth we should avoid/kill him before he's a problem for the rest of the tribe'

[@Aura-Of-Syrinx]

one of my favorite US cryptids with the 'lore' around it is Mothman

[@DreamblitzX]

Rythians Hellhound looks like Pochita from chainsawman who uh, to be fair, is a dog from hell?

[@MartynWilkinson45]

Bit odd that they consider pheonix mythological, but thunderbird a cryptid. Surely either both are myths, or both are cryptids.

[@dsungaripterus2600]

I think the Thunderbird has been reinterpreted/appropriated as a cryptid, so it's both.

[@dracodevis]

The main difference is whether there are people who think they are real. Much like Bigfoot, there are plenty of people who think the thunderbird is real and just hard to find. There aren't many people out there arguing the phoenix is real.

[@saoirsedeltufo7436]

I guess maybe one is a more recent myth? But also definitely comes from a white European perspective...

[@KrigareAvHallarna]

Whitewashing an indigenous myth turns it into a cryptid! Presto-change-o!

[@KrigareAvHallarna]

@@saoirsedeltufo7436 I don't think it's more recent. I think it was more recently shared with white people. A lot of Native American mythologies are VERY old.

[@RipJaws1]

If you want to get grass with /fill you need to use the ID grass_block. "grass_block" is the ID for the dirt block with a layer of grass on top of it. "grass" is the ID for the decorative and intangible block that grows on top of "grass_block." When you use "grass" instead of "grass_block" it's only spawning the plant, the only reason the grass blocks are underneath the plant is because the map was just built on top of grass blocks. Basically, use /fill x1 y1 z1 x2 y2 z2 grass_block

[@SchutzmarkeGMBH]

24:35 "This guy's fucking thighs are three elves thick" Brand new sentence

[@Thoast_]

I do quite enjoy Rhythians patented 'square dog's they're pretty funny and sorta cute

I love that Ben's prompt is literally just King Ghidorah. Kevin best boik. I swear, Ben always has the best references.

[@sinewrites6581]

tbh when I first saw Rythian's build I almost laughed out loud. Def the best build!

[@GScottActing]

Boba going "I ain't no 'Todd-Googler'" really surprised me. Great to see that meme coming back :D

[@D0Gdidthemath]

I wonder what that sign at the beginning said

[@ByagoonaCOOL]

it said "stand on this", went frame by frame to see

[@D0Gdidthemath]

@@ByagoonaCOOL thanks!

[@redv.7686]

Hilariously, Boba is not far off about kangaroos being cryptids. If you see a kangaroo in the state of New Jersey (basically anywhere outside of Australia), it's considered a Jersey Devil because it is a kangaroo that doesn't belong there. EDIT: RYTHIAN'S SQUARE DOG IS THE BEST!!!!

[@redv.7686]

Also, to be the cryptozoology nerd, Nilesy is wrong in that "the Jersey Devil is similar to the Mothman". He could've just done the famous "goat with wings" and that would be enough for the Jersey Devil.

[@redv.7686]

Additionally, I would like to applaud for Duncan for putting in an actual cryptid.

29:00 Griblets?!? I was thinking Critters! They even eat someone's leg!

[@Valentine570]

I like how none of them even mentioned that phoenixes dont even have eggs. Rising from their ashes is like their whole thing. They aren’t even on fire most of the time because when they set fire they die and turn to ash which they then are reborn from.
