How they absolutely ignored all of Batman's genius level intellect and insane athleticism is beyond me... dude would be an absolute killer on the basketball court and holds his own against super powered beings all the time.

That’s what I’m sayin

[@ddvsgd9508]

You know they had all the batman fans malding with their ignorance

[@Quinnsula5]

Also Batman/Bruce Wayne has beeen shown to ball and be a fan of the sport in some of the different iterations, I want him at my 2 as well not a full team player, he is a genius and would see good passing openings and all, but not all ways pass, though 3 works to.

[@rewstir6646]

i’ve been watching Hivemind for so long now and i cannot thank you guys enough for everything you make. your content has really helped me through many a hard time. my ED recovery and post SA trauma were made so much easier with the hour or two escape your videos continue to provide me. tysm, i really appreciate it. Dignan stole and ate all of my Lip Smackers. i have never been so chapped.

too true 💛

[@axeldurvaful]

Batman at PG would be sooo good, imagine the vision and passing from him

[@OctoberKjell]

The superhero draft was so incredibly painful to watch. Almost as painful as when Dignan stabbed me 37 times in the thigh with a rusty Bowie knife in 2013

[@turpthemusicguy]

it was, if only they knew captain marvel would solo

[@ingaspingas1]

So funny that Riley thought he had no chance in the superhero bracket but canonically both Green Lantern and Captain Marvel fold Diggy’s whole team. I also did not firebomb the Portland McDonalds in 1964.

[@turpthemusicguy]

[@original_shmirko_account]

Roddy and Megan have met because they were on the same XXL list. Glad I could clarify that for you guys😊

[@mindfvll]

love how riley looked at neros height and didnt realize it was nero from DMC

[@aimc00232]

you guys should do this video format with KOT4Q, idk if you guys know each other but any time he wears your merch, his comment section goes crazy asking for a collab

[@Donkeyrage]

Worth noting for Riley's Historical Figures team that Nero is generally considered to be the biblical antichrist. Talk about locker room tension.

them not working with batman or green lantern is crazy. batman has all the planning, sick training area for the crew, extra gadgets, and the level headed straightforwardness of the PG. green lantern can literally make anything come out of his ring. the giant 30ft hand? try dunking from the mid-line like this king 😤😤

[@cadelifts6762]

So kind of dignan for letting dignan go first!

[@shdynasty9397]

I feel like nobody really acknowledged Green Lantern’s ability in this sport. A defensive powerhouse able to block nearly any conceivable shot or grab any rebound and a true monster in the paint, not putting him at 5 is a mistake Riley will likely never recover from

they also ignored captain marvel she’s op

[@nat298]

absolutely no mention of the difficulties a torpedo might face on a basketball court with no water whatsoever to navigate through

[@forthefrogs]

the pokemon category was beyond perfect. love these boys :')

[@GirthyJeremy]

I think Squirtle would be a better 2 tbh, absolutely wet. Squirtz and Pikachu running the court would be merciless.

[@tgould2014]

Dignan’s superhero team clearly wins, but you are sleeping on the green lantern. Imagine the picks he could set! Literally a wall made by his ring

[@mxp4225]

no but seriously this is my favourite format by a long shot! pls keep going

[@birthgravy]

Bro Green Lantern would be a killer on the court. His ring projects any object that his mind can think of. Talk about literally setting screens.

[@hovenbanter]

I love how unconfident Riley is about his superhero team, meanwhile I'm watching thinking that Captain Marvel could kill literally every hero on either team... so I gotta give it to Riley on that one.

[@BuckleUpOG]

missed opportunity to say that Picasso is “great in the paint”

[@gwen6622]

in a game with roselia, ditto, geodude, etc, 3 foot tall Gurdurr is a goddamn giant lol. 3 feet tall is basically Yao Ming to a Bellsprout

[@alijahpelletier]

Riley, you need to finish your part for the history project and have it sent in by 8:30 tonight! thank you, roblox tomorrow at my place.

[@madroachin7388]

Riley's weapons team would win due to longevity Graydon's team will all become useless by halftime, giving Riley's trustworthy weapons the perfect opening to mount a comeback

[@hanksilman4016]

Funnily enough Riley's team for superheroes is way better than either of them realize for ball. Captain Marvel and Green Lantern alone are ridiculous, but Robin an all the Ninja Turtles are acrobats with basketball experience in their own media. Also because they didn't specify, could be John Jones Green Lantern, who also balls.

[@peeps5998]

it's very funny that they act like Gurdurr being 4ft tall is a deal breaker when that is FOUR TIMES the height of almost all of Riley's mons. Gurdurr is a champion in this setting.

[@FNScheddar]

Riley’s rapper team has too much chemistry to lose, Dignans Pokémon team, and super Hero teams clear Riley’s dog meat squads. Jesus Rises above the rim after crossing the whole team up. In a close game 5 and the series at 2 a piece Diggy and the Deadly Shooters take the game and the series. 3-2 great game. I was not responsible for what happened between Dignan and Shakira after the 2008 Olympic Winter Games! I was merely a witness.
