Hank must’ve been fucking disturbed 💀

[@nightxday]

A few things showcasing the capabilities of the AAHW, especially ATP Soldats. 0:54 Soldat flips up to dodge, punches Hank. 1:27 Rare moment where an Engineer’s mask stops a bullet. 1:50 Soldat dodges blade twice; tries to get a hit but is blocked. 2:08 Soldat flips to dodge again; hovers mid-air while swinging blade, like Hank. So he’s not the only one who abuses physics. Tried to punch; blocked. 3:12 Soldat had a clean shot - but Hank deflected the rounds. 4:28 Soldat disarms Hank. AAHW needs to teach their agents to predict where Hank will dodge his way to. A lot of people had a clear shot on him but he always jumps and dashes everywhere, even jumping when he didn’t see the Engineer pointing a gun at his back - right before he shoots. AAHW is not incompetent. Their enemies are just more experienced.

[@reidj2226]

I also noticed slight difference in how each of Hanks deal with agents. Antipathy is generally more violent but he's shown to be struggling against Soldats specifically as while MC7 Hank less brutal but more careful, taking out soldats without even getting hit.

[@joshuakim5240]

@@reidj2226 It's a really neat detail as Antipathy Hank fights the Soldats aggression with his own aggression, which is in the Soldat's element so they're actually effective against him while MC7 Hank fights in ways that abuse the Soldat's low intelligence and short-fused temper that let's him dispatch them much more efficiently despite being less aggressive.

[@mileator]

It's taken me some time to recognize some of the nuances here. Krinkles has really learned two things. Threat, and Target prioritization. Which is fucking awesome. I watched his streams... I think it was last year... and during his Madness Day stream, there was a video, that had the engineers face masks actually be bullet proof. Krinkles liked the idea so much, he's began implementing it. Which is fucking amazing. What I find even more amazing though is that, that has bred, diversified enemies and Target prioritization. Soldats are now the only ones who can keep up with Hank. They're aggressive, they dodge his attacks, they flip, they engage in melee combat. There're a force to be reckoned with. Engineers are starting to show a lot more intelligence and battle sense. Which also plays well into their, now Bulletproof masks. They're allowed to analyze the battlefield with less risk of getting shot in the face for it. It provides them with time to think. That's pretty goddamn cool. This new direction to choreography has allowed the A.T.P.'s to express themselves. And that expression has also evolved Hank into someone who can prioritize his targets. Now he has to choose which one to fight, because when a soldat enters a room he understands that the soldat is the priority. They're the ones that pose the highest threat. This all in all this is a fantastic evolution. It's actually making the appreciate the soldats a little more. I always thought they were lame because they were just agents with an eyepiece. They weren't unique like engineers. Well... now, that's changed. Keep it up, Krinkles. This new direction of your fight choreography is the tits. ALSO: another thing i've noticed. It's Hank! He's still Hank. After all this time there's still a personality behind him. I spent a long time watching other people's animations and returning to a crinkles animation really just shows how strongly choreographed Hank's personality is. He still has a sick sense of humor. And I love that. The kind of person to kill dudes for style points. The guy who would chuck a phone mid conversation. Taunt a soldat for his eye piece. Shoot a clown in the face to make a nose in his faceplate. Kill 10 men for a hot drink that he stole, but was later stolen back from him. Hank looks up meat tenderizing techniques while torturing a person with a spatula, because he likes to sound it makes.

[@BananaTrooper3650]

"Hank looks up meat tenderizing techniques while torturing a person with a spatula, because he likes the sound it makes". Where and when did that happen? Also nice analysis.

[@mileator]

@@BananaTrooper3650 it's never actually happened. The point I was making is that, it's in Hank's personality to do that very specific thing. It's twisted. It's dark. It's funny. And to add even more flavor, Hank would probably be wearing either a apron or a chef hat as well. It's his sick sense of humor. Something that did happen is how happy and excited he was to kill after finding a giant blender.

Maybe those “types” we saw when 2BDAMNED was trying to locate Hank was different Hanks left behind every time he got revived. Instead of just shoving Hank right back into his body, it creates a copy of his “soul” every time and the previous version gets left in Hell. We saw MC2 Hank in the Dedmos adventures, it’s possible that it wasn’t a hallucination or trick, but actually part of Hell seeping into Deimos’ purgatory on accident. Basically, the Improbability Drive just kept creating copies of Hank, most likely thanks to Tricky.

[@gutstheberserkerr]

What I gathered from this is that every time Hank dies, a clone of him is sent to this other dimension (I think it’s called The Other Place) which explains why antipathy Hank and consternation Hank are both here - since each of them died. I also think that antipathy Hank was chosen since Doc needed the aggressiveness of him to make Hank a half-mag. “FINDING A HANK” on doc’s monitor supports this idea and that multiple clones of his dead self are present in The Other Place. Your talent is impeccable, Krinkels.

[@elizabethstein9698]

Agreed. I have a feeling a colony of dead Hanks exists somewhere in Purgatory. The "Antipathy" Hank goes rogue and ditches rest of the colony, as he, unlike the others, not content with living in Purgatory, and wants to be revived, hence why he fights our Hank. Unfortunately for him, he looses to our Hank.

[@jacore2618]

if that's so. I think we have 3 Trickys at this time period. if I have to guess which is what tricky here is what I think: the tricky we find in 9.5 part 1 is Redeemer Tricky. he seemed to be more focused on trying to figure out what's going on then actually attacking hank. The Tricky here has to be a different one as he generated out a different person. my guess for this one is that he is Avenger Tricky. I don't think its the tricky from Antipathy because he didn't really die but instead took a new form. and the huge skeleton thing is most likely Consternation Tricky. as the skeleton is similar to Ex-Hell Clown.

[@RubenMartinez-qb8yy]

7:02 My theory here is that this scene explains why Hank has a creature arm when he is revived in MC 9. This tentacle thing stabbed Hank at the wrong time right as 2bdamned was reviving him, so in turn they got fused together when Hank returned back to Nevada. This also explains how Hank’s Silhouette is a completely new sprite we haven’t seen before as if that WAS going to be what his appearance would be before the tentacle intervened.

Cool theory

[@secondpath5148]

This also means that Antipathy Hank, which I assume is the "canon" hank that died before being revived in episode 7, is confirmed as the hank currently alive in nevada- and Consternation Hank, who had his cranium fluted by Jebus's 500 magnum, is still trapped in "the other place" or hell.

Theory: -7:00-- So we see that the crustacean arm grabbing the MC6 styled Hank is what merged Hank with it as seen in MC9. It took the S-3LF of that Hank in the Other Place to revive him since he was dead when he was being Magnified. My idea is that when Tricky revived Hank in MC6, he used another method other than Enmeshment, so Hank's S-3LF in the Other Place stayed there. This can probably be supported by Doc's computer finding 4 Hanks (--3:57--), and What looks to be MC3 and MC4 Hank (--0:30--, --1:22--). When Doc opened up his computer to look for Hank, 4 different results popped up, so it could be that every time Hank was revived, the one who does so uses a method that isn't Enmeshment. And therefore, another one of Hank's S-3LFs is created on the spot when he's revived, and each time he dies, they end up in The Other Place. This is all really complicated right now but it's super fun to theorize on!- Revision (thanks to Ice Crawl 19 for some of this): 7:00 So we see that the crustacean arm grabbing the MC6 styled Hank is what merged Hank with it as seen in MC9. It took the S-3LF of that Hank in the Other Place to revive him since he was dead when he was being Magnified. Whenever Hank dies, and is revived, he regains a fractured version of his previous S-3LF, while that fragment of his S-3LF stays locked up in The Other Place. Antipathy Hank is the Hank with least amount of S-3LF, explaining why he's so brutal, he's practically not human anymore, as many say. Virtually no personality, just a robot programmed to do what he does best, "what comes natural" for him, killing (also explaining why he immediately goes after the other Hank). After he dies at the end of MC7, Hank completely loses his soul, explaining why when Deimos throws him in the Magnification Chamber to revive him, it has to fetch a S-3LF from The Others Place, since Hank's soul is completely and permanently fractured and locked up in The Other Place. This can probably be supported by Doc's computer finding 4 Hanks (3:57), and What looks to be MC3 Hank (0:30).

i never realised those two grunt fellas might be early hanks. the black markings were from the injuries of those episodes. but that thought seems to spawn more questions then answers, like how the hell are these two hanks down here when he supposidly never died in the first place? Those bandages might have revived him afterall

[@galenmarek4117]

Yeah, a lot of these theories are really fun, and I like this one a lot too. That's a good catch on the 4 Hanks too, though it still leaves the question as to how Hank was revived so many times between episodes if not through enmeshment. Could someone other than Doc have done it? Or could Doc know of a different method (which seems unlikely at face value without conjecture, given what we know through Arena and arguably Dedmos)

I love the simple but effective use of the spikes to symbolize who's.. well, for lack of a better term, "magic" is being used. The denser, grittier spikes for the retainer, the coarse cliff-like rocks we see around deimos and doc, auditor's extremely refined spikes that sound and look nearly made of metal. Its very cool in my opinion and a very good use of "show, not tell"

0:54 love how soldats are being portrayed as more powerful then normal Agents instead of just another fodder. Also the “Ouch, Hank we can not escape but we can stop you.” Makes me think that no matter how many times Hank kills them. They always come back. This is some form of hell after all. If that is true then the two agents and single engineer that drop down at 1:58 are the ones originally on the platform before Hank arrived.

[@demonslayer5122]

Agreed, while they still go down pretty quickly, they don't go down as quick as the grunts and agents.

[@Fulcrox]

For some reason Engineers we're more competent that Soldats this time

[@joshuakim5240]

@@Fulcrox That might be a reference to how Engineers and Soldats are the same rank but with different specializations. Soldats are better at direct fighting but are stupid and short-tempered while Engineers are better at more tactical combat but aren't as aggressive. Against MC6 Hank whose just a hyper-aggressive meat grinder of anger, Engineers are better suited to abuse that anger and fight smarter while Soldats just charge into that meat grinder.

[@worthlessclericbuild3866]

The thing I find interesting about 1:07 is it 1: definitively shows that the agents in this purgatory are not there out of choice and don’t want to be there. (Which yeah of course why would they). As well as implying that they’ve tried to escape before, after all how else would they know they can’t escape. 2. Really drives home how committed these guys are to trying to stop Hank. Gotta hand it to them for that despite being generously considered fodder. 3. Much like Hank, dying here doesn’t seem to mean much, as the soldat seems to be communicating to Hank.

[@atari4171]

nice observation, it really feels like the soldat is the one talking directly to hank. Maybe it could be considered the AAHW agents' will as a whole.

For number 2. yes, those guys are indeed very commited If you've played project nexus, it kind of just shows how they kind of have CULTIST behavior when it comes to hank

[@buzzlightyearpfp7641]

i just realized, antipathy hank never fought the soldats/engineers, which is why he's struggling a bit with them

[@bababooey5402]

Another thing: Antipathy is reckless and aggresive, making him easier to catch up. Consternation, conversely, is slow and methodical, so he plans enough to wipe an entire room and not get hit at all. Basically, Antipathy just go bang bang; Consternation thinks first, THEN bang bang.

[@Giorganic]

fun fact: Antipathy means settled aversion or act of dislike

[@lolrus5555]

@@bababooey5402 on top of this is the fact that the combat effectiveness is the other way around for both Hanks when it comes to the Retainer; as part 1 shows, Consternation Hank got utterly thrashed by it and was unable to even land a single blow on it. Conversely, while he does admittedly have Tricky bailing him out a time or two and that the Retainer is apparently 'too tired' to use its telekinesis on him, Antipathy Hank is actually able to hold his own against the hell warden reasonably well, to the point of figuring out how to do lasting damage on it (impale things into its body so it can't regenerate) and managing to predict and dodge those flash step attacks.
