Trapping Mario YouTubers in my NEW Troll Level

I invited 3 friends to play in a Custom Super Mario Odyssey level, but what they don't know is that's its a troll level with the exit hidden right at the beginning. This was a ton of fun to put together so I hope you enjoy and consider subscribing!
Thanks to @Smallant @cjya and @Alpharad for playing!

[@EzCope]

How does this only have 2 comments is the real question

[@loudnoises5372]

I mean to be fair, if Fir didn't yell at CJ to "GO GO GO GET THE MOON HURRY" he would have hesitated longer then those 2 seconds..

[@LoganverseS1]

Yes

[@MasonP12]

HEY SMALLANT

[@TheUnkGamer]

smant: "unless theres one behind the odyssey" fir: *breathing stops* smant: "no theres not" fir: *sigh of relief*

[@MagiRemmie]

The only reason Smant didn't notice is because the camera flipped out and didn't show him the proper view which makes it more hilarious.

[@SquirrellyOtter]

"You found the checkpoint" Never has so much despair been attached to that phrase

[@Drekromancer]

Honestly. You can see it in their eyes. They're still smiling bc they've finally got the answer to the puzzle. Then they respawn and take in their surroundings - and the smile immediately drops into a dead-eyed stare. Fucking beautiful.

[@Arexion5293]

Tomb Raider 1 on PS1 has a somewhat similar feeling. The ps1 version for some reason decided to make the save points work only once, so when you came into a room and saw two save spots floating around, you would feel absolute dread because you have no clue when you should use one of them.

[@Zack_Zander]

I’ve seen it a lot in Mario Maker maps, but my god this one is even more dreadful and I love it.

[@u53r12]

It's some Re:Zero kinda stuff

[@endarkculi]

So at what point, I wonder, does "troll level" cross the line into "psychological torture"? Because this one felt pretty dang close.

[@ArceusDX]

I feel like the 2 go hand in hand

[@sai_ai__8446]

There is no line, they're just the same

[@ArgoDevilian]

it's when Valefisk gets involved

[@NitroMelon]

Psychological trollture

[@atsukana1704]

This is not a troll level. Not like those you find in mario maker that are good (sorry fir but no you broke too many rules) This does cross into psychological torture

[@HamsterMaster8]

Having the level be playable both forwards and backwards is genuinely cool

[@Varandru]

You have an interesting definition of playable in this specific case...

[@soldier7012]

i love how they always try stuff that would actually make sense first even though they know it's not gonna work.

[@MisatoKatsuragi69]

Thats a streamer moment right there

[@bluestar2059]

See, they're trying to predict the double-bluff. If you go into a level expecting everything to be a troll, then the biggest troll is for something to be normal.

[@timedragon1]

If Smant saw it the first time he went around the Odyssey, that would have truly been a legendary moment in Mario Escape Room history.

[@XYZeNxghtmxre]

For all intents and purposes he could’ve. We’d just never know. Getting the solution in 5 minutes doesn’t make good content for your friend. So he’d either have to go through everything or get cut from the video. Maybe he gets a short solo segment at the end but it’s just not funny enough

[@zyrage]

@@XYZeNxghtmxreHe probably would have started a second run to get the Level as well

[@TheDigileet]

Just imagine CJ and Alpha losing their minds as Fir tells them that Ant has already finished

[@MagiRemmie]

@@zyrage Honestly Smant is the kind of guy that would play the level just to be the homie.

[@CascadeHope]

Out of all of the things that conspired in this level.. I love how Small Ant lost to CJ from trying out multiple hearts for 'science'

[@Drekromancer]

Oh, man. Even a single mistake or scientific inquiry would account for the difference. That's horrendous. 😂

[@iantaakalla8180]

Even worse, some of those tests were suspecting the exit was at the beginning of the level. If only he was more exploratory then

[@kingofthelandbaby]

I can’t wait until for the next escape room where every single one of the them tries the odyssey at the very beginning

[@DanelerH]

But doing so brings them to a “real” room with a checkpoint. They have to get through a series of rooms to get back to the start, unless they pull an Alpharad and just restart from Cap.

[@colinbaker5306]

I was half expecting that the timer room was actually secretly SMO Online, and Fir would just hit a button on the other side of the map at some point in their frustration for comedic timing to open the door

[@Drekromancer]

That would have been legendary

[@someguy6152]

15:07 Ant: "Wait, what if there's a secret door at the start" Fir: **Starts Sweating** Ant: "You got quiet" Fir: **Sweats Profusely** Fir: "I just don't want to give hints without being prompted"

[@doctorreed_]

going through cap kingdom instead of hell was actually genius, timer be damned

[@Drekromancer]

Agreed. I wish it had paid off by making him fast enough to win.

[@AWanderingSwordsman]

I knew that room had to just be a timer. The way Fir led them on I think stopped them from realizing. Great stuff.

[@apawhite]

Fir and Smallant continue to share a brainstem. If only Smant had trusted his gut about the exit! But the final scores are a fantastic result too.

[@andrewgreenberg1862]

I think maybe he wanted to check it, but went along with the level for content. I don't know, his intuition seemed too strong to search as minimally as he did.

[@rosysighting]

I just want to know what Alpha, Smant and cjya did to deserve this troll level

[@fiendfi7119]

alpha made the impossible escape room. the other two, idk.

[@emile_jeanne]

but only cj participated in that one so he got double punished@@fiendfi7119

[@yukikitsune7366]

[@LTMStarlight]

I feel like cyja is the only one who doesn’t deserve this torture lol, he is just the 3rd one that wouldn’t get genuinely mad lol.

[@FranTheNerd]

cj winning by 2 SECONDS that's insane. Love this content fir

[@zombiegroan3985]

That checkpoint foreshadowing tho.

[@neco9590]

Smallant performing the most elegant series of blueballing teases imaginable in this one

[@CasuallyShadow]

I love how these really just show how smart Alpharad is...That or he just thinks like a sadist just like Fir, one of the two, or both.

[@SugarSpice07]

One half one, one half the other. He's smart, but he's the same type of person, so he can use his smarts to put that to use.

[@_WiZ420]

alpharad suggesting the dev door fuckin killed me lmao

[@Riverbui]

When you hid the win condition in the odyssey pipe, my first thought was "smallant is absolutely the type of person to think to look at the odyssey during one of these challenges" And I was only half wrong.

[@Sandyyyyyy]

You know it’s a good day when Fir uploads

[@hammernose]

my heart broke when cj forgot about the prison at the very end. crazy video, i love this series so much

[@onenerdwithpocky9937]

I've come to the conclusion that Fir's love language is SMO troll levels

[@username5155]

How did Alpharad not realize he could just load a completed save and take the Odyssey to Cascade Kingdom?

[@pkmntrainermark8881]

I can't believe Smant went back to the Odyssey to look for an exit twice and missed it.

[@Erlewyn]

At some point, they should form an alliance to make a level specifically for you.

[@clarfonthey]

The design on this is actually golden. The gate at the beginning has so many layers.

[@CatusMagus]

I probably scared my neighbors with the laugh I let out when the _one_ checkpoint in the level was revealed. 😂

[@matthiashopkins7502]

even if jacob didnt win this, he definitely was the one who outsmarted the outsmarted

[@TheGeneReyva]

Fir. What went through your mind when SmAnt went behind the Odyssey? E: Wow... E2: Actually, I want to say it. I love these levels you make. Be they escape room or troll. Genuinely look forward to seeing more.

[@Silver_Sonic_23]

I can't believe that Alpharad just gave up and tried to cheat the system... and he still lost.

[@peperoni_pepino]

I mean, he does the first world in less than 25 minutes, so he decided to cheat after he had already lost -- and Fir likely let him know that. At that point, it didn't really matter anymore; he isn't a Odyssee speedrunner like the other two so going back with the trick jumps would likely just have been painful (to do and to watch).

[@kiminimuchu__]

I mean, it probably was faster than redoing Fir's level, he simply wasn't going to beat CJ and SmallAnt regardless.

[@vacantile]

Every Fir video these days is an absolute banger, literally becoming one of my favorite channels

[@AlexBelethe]

The instant they started doing nonsense thing in the goomba room, I knew it was gonna be a timer. Nothing they did was alike, and it reminded me too much of a psych experiment I'd seen on tv befor, where a group of people were trying to increase a score, that turned out to be controlled by the movement of a goldfish xD

[@toran9909]

smants last line is actually genius xD

[@benarim]

I laughed so hard! I do feel a bit sorry for them though, that must have been so frustrating.. But one of these days, you'll have trained them well with the troll levels. And then it's just going to be a perfectly normal custom level and they'll second guess themselves at every step I look forward to the next descent into madness!

[@orca3432]

My favorite part of these videos will always be the tight race between cj and smant since their play styles are so different yet effective in their own way. Smant can cut out failures and therefore save time with his intellect and guesswork, meanwhile cj keeps diving headfirst and learns later. It's always a toss up to which one is better and I love finding out at the end. (Tldr, I attribute this loss to smant hesitating before picking up the death heart instead of skipping it altogether, or picking it up right away like cj did)

[@toxications]

The formula to a good troll: "Make you focus at X, while Y interacts in a way you're not expecting." For example: the jump = X, the hidden block = Y. Or, a room with a lot of moving parts (that do nothing) = X, fireball that kills you because you're standing still = Y. This level had none of that. Just a lot of killing. You have a lot to learn.

[@turkeyman631]

I know a lot of work goes into making these escape rooms, but I love them so much. Dont think theres a series of videos on KZbin I'm more excited to click on, and that is including Hide and Seek.

[@armybeast09]

25:30 is so gold, you can see them slowly figure it out by their facial expression 🤣🤣

[@RockingSpaceDragon]

Damn fir, ant would have totally got it if you didn't straight up tell him it wasn't at the Oddessy lmao

[@kraykyle]

Okay but was anyone else thinking about what good emotional support that Altaria plushie behind Fir would've been for them? They really needed it.

[@Rockalanche]

Yes! I love the custom-level videos Fir. I instantly watch them every time.

[@Huntinthemmonsters]

Smallant quote of the day- I'm like a rat trying to find food

[@amateraceon5202]

“Well they all finally know where’s the exit, but why are there still six minutes left in the video?” “OH-“

[@JosepiThe13th]

CJ finally won one of these and that pop off was legendary 😂

[@JEnduro]

these custom levels have become some of my favorite things Fir has made, who knew how evil speedrunners could be

[@wezletbullock7424]

This was the best one so far. The fact that Alpharad and Smallant made a comment about the exit being at the beginning is amazing 🤣. And also including the only checkpoint at the very end after they realize that the exit was at the beginning 😂

[@tino_-td7ok]

Im really enjoying this series. The troll levels aswell as the actual escape rooms

[@Kaalv2]

Really fun troll levels and escape room you have made recently but I do think it is more fun to guess the solution during the video which the reveal at the start kinda stopped for me, but fire videos. Keep it up!

[@twisteddragonn]

I really love this type of videos Fir! Even Troll levels are really fun to watch and I think Smallant/Alpharad/Cjya are a great trio

I loved this, one of the most intense youtube videos I've ever seen and all of you are really entertaining But you shouldn't have told us where the goal is, it would have made it a lot funnier imo :D

[@Fir]

I went back and forth on telling you guys about it at the beginning. I don't think there was a right decision but I ultimately decided it was more fun for the viewer to be "in the know" instead of left in the dark like the player.

[@Thunder-Sky]

I feel so bad for Alpharad, he theorizes that it might be about coins, gets the coin ring, and it opens, but then he completely misses that and proceeds to stack 5 goombas

This was such a good troll level! Making them play through the whole thing backwards was such a funny idea!

[@samiamrg7]

20:00 “I don’t jnow how fish momentum works” is such a funny comment out of context.

[@pechaberryjuice]

Yeah!! (If you didn't watch to the very end, fir explains that the goomba room is just a timer) i heard about an actual psychological study that was conducted where people were put into a room with a printer that would print out a dollar every thirty seconds, but they weren't told that. They were just told that they had to figure out what causes the machine to print. (They were also being recorded and they knew that they were) so people would make up wild theories according to random things that they did in the room because they assumed that it was something that they were doing.
