Rap Battles of the Feywild

[@jeroen92]

People talking about Sam here, but Matt did that whole 13 minute long scene in rhyme. Wow.

[@Warrigt]

Matt just 3-0ed the group. hope to see this on RYD

[@uninterruptedrhythm4104]

Occasionally Sam Riegel allows his inner bard to come out even if he doesn't play one anymore

[@StMargorach]

It's sad though, not having Scanlans songs and rhymes.

[@jasonsterlingentertainment478]

There'll always be new PCs but the first ones are to the bone.

[@jaypoirier8780]

Because Sam HIMSELF is a bard. Like yea, by nature, they’re all multi class bards, but he is pure bard.

[@KayKay-dq5gm]

Occasionally??

[@josephhenryreyes8205]

Hi, I'm from the future and he is playing a kinda bard again

[@allenkeith7160]

But don't forget, whenever you want... You're always welcome home. That was too sweet!

[@C0medySeniorz]

This is my favorite part honestly. I love little character flavor moments like this

[@WisakJ]

Matt was SO proud of Marisha for remembering the present from Morri. They would have fucked up real bad if they didnt.

[@seanayres5]

I love the different reactions each cast member has to the challenge: Travis - On point, comes out with beatboxing for FCG on command and instantly customises his gift too Marisha - Remembers the paste just in time, also finds a rhyme for "Vespin Chloras" of all things Sam - Sam's been training for this exact moment all of Campaign 1 Ashley - Cannot for the life of her remember to speak in rhyme or even what she is trying to offer as a gift Laura - Finally finds a thing in DnD she's bad at (besides being a cleric :P) Liam - Straight to the point, as always Taliesin - Nails the challenge right away, probably because he's part eldritch entity too so he's used to this sort of thing

[@ThatsPrettyFunnyMan]

Sam was made for this. And of course Matt can just rhyme on the fly.. like cmon, this man is just too good at anything. He's also given Travis some ammunition to tease Laura with I'd imagine.

[@clairegoulet927]

Ashley was so cringe to watch in this scene.

[@jackpraefortis5293]

I love the way Matt describes and plays creative monsters like this. He really brings them to life and captivates you with them.

[@Drekromancer]

Well said. I wish the campaign had given BH a reason to stay longer in the Feywild. Every single encounter he ran there was by far some of the most interesting stuff in this entire campaign. He really has a knack for replicating dreamlike, liminal states of consciousness - like his prophetic visions, and his fey that feel like they stepped right out of a fairytale.

[@Drekromancer]

Just look at the list of encounters for this trip to the Feywild, and try to find one that isn't goated. We had: -Road to Ligament Manor (with the screaming flowers) -Ligament Manor + Nana Morri -Road to the Fey Key -The Fey Key -Escaping the Key / Gloamglut Chase -Rhyming Gate

[@stingerjohnny9951]

Laura’s/Imogen’s embarrassment at the end is the funniest part for me. I imagine Chetney and Orym were staring at her the same was Travis and Orym were XD

[@bamcki991]

Yes! Chetney just laughing at her and Orym just being like "Yup. We're gonna die"

[@paybackntf4017]

Matt really put them on the spot, so they had to rhyme quick. While Ashton could drop it like it’s hot, Imogen made the poor fey gatekeeper sick.

[@alanardominim]

in Chetney's wise words: .... Nice🤣

[@roe099]

I find myself coming back to this video from time to time. Each time shocked when I scroll down that none of the comments rhyme.

[@cleverpotato814]

I see what you did there. You’re really quite clever….hopefully, in time, we all can rhyme better.

[@TheMightyBollard]

These comments should rhyme, I also agree. So I'll add my own, now here's one from me. To anyone who reads this: Come on, add some more! Make the comments rhyme like they should have done before!

[@theknight1573]

@@TheMightyBollard I dont know what to say, but I applaud your attempt. I better come with something, or leave you in contempt. I would not rhyme for riches, or some such. If I did it for glory, I wouldn't add to much. So for the best I have to offer, I will be giving you my prayer. I am naught but a choffer, but some would call me player.

[@DMofBriseras]

I've got nothing meaningful to add, but I love a good rhyme, and would feel sad and left out if I did not add mine!

[@taylorsmith9197]

This is easily one of my favorite DM moments ive ever seen from any actual play or in person. absolutely love it

[@avengemybreath3084]

[@Unenvarjo]

If they ever make Legend of Bell’s Hells or some such animation, I hope this scene will be incorporated

[@stingerjohnny9951]

He certainly was Fresh 😏

[@Ajehy]

His beats were Sacred Flame

[@reneehoenicke4765]

Sam Riegel has music in his heart, and he has decided that we have no choice but to listen as he lets it out 😂 Good thing he is AMAZING at creating said music

[@TheSaphireKatana]

I love this fucking dude! I really hopes doing well at his gate just chilling

[@jeefberky9101]

Love how Terrosh hears a magic beam tearing throw the forest and his reaction is "Huh, that's odd"

[@2centschange]

He's huge (he picked imogen up with one hand), and he's a fae in his own territory. Glumgut was an annoyance at best.

[@PopeCrispy]

One of my favorite moments from this campaign

[@helenamarie33]

Easily in my top favorites of C3 👏👏 too good. Matt is so talented.

[@overlordofmidgard5876]

Scenes like this is why I love Critical Role and D&D. This and Grog pulling 5 cards from the Deck

[@devinspencer1678]

This was an amazing bit! Perfectly displays a way to interact with your players beyond the typical puzzles or combat. I struggle to make good NPC encounters like this, but I love seeing them done well

I can't wait until I finish campian 2 to get to campian 3

[@Ken_neThT]

09:43 it's only this specific instance's weird way of rhyming that stuck with me. Maybe it's because everyone laughed? Regardless, I tried to make a rhyme a little better, I hope. Through this land we've ridden that I've not lied, My cloth shall keep you hidden as best as it might, I gift you this piece of linen and with your toll I shall abide

[@aliciacordero8399]

I feel like 2 lines is enough there, ngl. Throughout this land we've ridden, of that I have not lied. This cloth shall keep you hidden; thus I, your toll, abide.
