Who is that Troll Maker?

[@CarlSagan42]

Hi everyone! I'm going to be taking a break from streaming, YT, social media, and all of that stuff for a bit to focus on repairing some of the other parts of my life that have fallen by the wayside (like relationships). Especially since COVID, I noticed a lot of that stuff was really lacking in my life, and I really miss it. I'll hopefully still have videos to post every week or two, but it might slow down for a bit. If you'd like to read more about this, you can check out my twitter for updates: twitter.com/Carl_Sagan42/status/1448395628552196096 Basically I'll be back when I get a significant other 😂 Thank you for watching and supporting my videos, this has been an amazing adventure together

[@stathinfection]

Enjoy the break, take as much time as you need! ❤️

Time to go and watch the troll levels from mm1 again. Good luck Carl!

[@loganblinn1354]

Before watching, I thought this was going to be a series of troll levels where you have to guess who it was that made it, and now I want that video

[@FabianSwagger]

I too want this video

YEEESSSS

I want that video

[@frostburnwoof]

Would be awesome!

[@stevo1922]

i'm honestly amazed at how well that thwomp see-saw troll worked. I didn't think the first layer would get anyone. The idea there was that you would try to go bait out the thwomp and then run back, so you go below the semisolid a little bit and die. Then i added the kaizoblock to get people if they jumped back. But just standing on the seesaw and dying works too i guess lmao

[@TuomasStarck]

It was a beautiful troll

[@AnotherDuck]

The simplest trolls are the best.

[@Srcsqwrn]

It was amazing, and I loved it. lol

[@feroxino1051]

I am so fucking proud of myself for fucking recognizing it was you long before the scream

[@13Glitch]

12:16 Watching Carl analyze an entire troll section before literally running face first into a muncher is far funnier than it probably should be.

[@Mr407Derek]

He always gives it his best shot. Every single death.

[@solidzack]

19:38 is much more hilarious him just standing there paralyzed as he slowly sinks to the spikes

[@DubberRucks]

Especially when he tries to explain what's going to happen and still gets it wrong!

[@novabren7260]

"you're making trolls that are indistinguishable from Steveo and I don't know if that's the highest praise or the highest insult" *proceeds to die once more to the same troll*

[@AnotherDuck]

Clear case of, "Why not both?"

[@Mr407Derek]

Its not a CS video if he doesnt.

[@DubberRucks]

Sagan's playbook says that if you DON'T die to the same troll you once avoided you're doing it wrong!

[@psuedonym9999]

The "phew, made it!" isn't actually a reaction to being caught in a claw and escaping, it's just a thing that Luigi always says when you beat a NSMBU level with him.

[@cruetusnex]

Yeah, was hoping chat would tell him this... Lol

[@nickred652]

The see-saw troll at 20:13 must've been one of the funniest trolls so far, EVER! So simple yet so brilliant. Loved it!

[@NerissaVal]

they read him so goddamn hard there

[@solidzack]

@@NerissaVal it wasn't intended to work that way, the idea was that he would run away from the thwomp and the seesaw lowering slightly would be enough to make him run into the spikes. But him just standing there paralyzed Was even better

[@casperdewith]

27:00 The editor did this on purpose, don’t fall for the trap!

[@cruetusnex]

Can you explain?

[@CarlSagan42]

That lever-thwomp room was the best section of troll level I’ve seen for a long time. Absolutely died laughing

[@raymondheil4838]

I know! You’re expecting some crazy death from the thwomp, and you’re just too focused on him to see Luigi sinking into the spikes.

[@DrGandW]

It has all the qualities of a master troll It’s novel It’s a surprise that doesn’t fit into any expectation going in It misdirects your attention until it’s too late It’s trivial to get past once you know about it And the best part, the part that makes it masterful It ONLY kills you if you try to outsmart it

[@clarafedde8674]

Took two seconds to say, that's STEVE-OOOOOOO. Carl's face can't keep a secret

[@jurassic_yoshi2550]

It's because he likes to say that Stevo is out of ideas.

Unfortunately the game has a time limit and when it hits that the level ends no matter what. There is black hole methods to freeze the games though ;)

[@Shalakor]

@@riverwhy Does it end in a victory or time over death? Cause death after the flag is something Mario Maker is sorely lacking compared to rom hacks.

"That tongue can get all the way in" ~ CarlSagan42, 2021 Producing out-of-context material as always.

[@WillRennar]

Carl at start: "It's a mystery creator, I'm not telling you who it is, you have to guess." Me: I'm guessing at some point he's gonna scream *_STEEEEVOOOOOOO!!_* and then realize he gave it away.

[@Bworms1980]

Carl is amazingly skilled. He attempts to guess the next troll so that he can avoid it, and instead, perfectly guesses the moves that will get you trolled. He did that so many times in this episode.

[@frimi8593]

14:20 one day Carl’s gonna actually end stream there and when that happens I hope his editor just plays the outro with Dan’s song on loop for 20 full minutes

I loved the fact Mr. CPSteveO had the respect for you that he did consistently throughout the level, to disguise all his setups to look like other setups and expect you to figure out what should be the right thing to do based on the setups you *can* see

That New Soup easter egg is absolutely hilarious, and it shows that there must be *some* amount of awareness by the game devs of how popular Troll Levels and Glitch Showcases are, because that plays to the expectations that only come from those sub-communities. Shame that Nintendo forces them to take down levels that use glitches even if they're innocuous or open opportunities for cool idea.

[@Alienldr]

To be fair, you JUST got the checkpoint. I feel like resetting for a soft lock isn't bad until you are a little further after. Otherwise, it's basically saying a soft lock is bad at the checkpoint, but ok 3 tiles earlier. We need to add a gray area

[@AnotherDuck]

I think it's fine if you can't get to the soft lock from the checkpoint without backtracking.
