Matt Mercer Dances To Applause || Critical Role Dance Party

[@bcn1gh7h4wk]

-"Make a performance check..." _rolls......_ -"Natural twenty!!"

[@shebehere2452]

“With disadvantage.”

[@bigmike1ak]

Google Poodle reply: Matt - “in an embarrassing manner.” DM - “Okey-Dokey.”

[@googlepoodle5814]

bigmike1ak what do you mean? It was glorious

[@nataliemccrea8730]

I feel like Matt was like “yeah I guess I’ll dance to lady Gaga” but deep down he’s like “I’m about to own these bitches”

[@Elariesel]

Nope. Dude was hyped bout dancing to Gaga from the start. He wanted to join if someone picked this song, then he wanted to pick it himself but got talked into smth different and lastly he doubled down on Gaga despite being told this song's hard. Man of commitment and sheer fking will!

[@overoverthinker]

Don't you know that DM stands for Dance Master?

[@SeriatimHD]

In my ranks I am referred to as Disco Master after accidently put on groovy tunes to a battle encounter..

[@Cary0G]

I love how from the beginning Mercer was hyped for Gaga. Even before this clip, when he was picking a song earlier he wanted to do this song. And then at the beginning of this he's like 'Hey if you're gonna do that song I'm joining you.' and his little dance before the real dance started. Plus him mouthing all the lyrics. Man I love him.

[@geekasaurusrexy]

Yeah, totally. I mean, he totally slayed it, but there's something kinda sexy about those subtle little moves he did on his own. Damn, Marisha's a lucky woman.

Have you heard of an awesome show called Critical Role? He is one of my fave character there, voiced by Matthew Mercer :) CMIIW This clip was around Critical Role episode where Clarota join the party

[@cjhenderson61]

I've heard of the show, but the episodes are so long, so I would only watch the announcements and where they left off last time, and that's it, the only side characters I know are Lyra, Tiberius, Zahra, Kashaw, the Briarwoods, and I know that Scanlan left the team to be with his daughter and got replaced by Tarryon
