Best three out of five.  Also, spam throwing beam swords.

Statuses were updated. The meta-knight is now thundercharged, everyone healed properly, it all worked out.
Oh wait I forgot to remove Bardnir's ass-vacuum. Editing...

Also, complain that a 6 doesn't mean you completely fail at your objective.  That's not how RTDs work.

The chaotic bloodmage weaves ultimate power and casts a spell to revert time and begin the cycle anew! Everything plays out exactly as it has for another cycle, but by the time the adventure returns to the point at which the chaotic bloodmage asks for ultimate power, the GM refuses and instead says, "yeah I'm real happy for you and your time-bending shenanigans, but I'm-a have to let you wait on that until I can figure out a way to turn this into a stable time loop and keep the adventure going." In the end, all that accomplished was a load of flavor text and four more trees.

Recharge magic....

Summon a patch of kudzu that grows aggressively.
[3] [5] [trees:6]
You attempt another mantra to recharge your magic, but it fails! Resolving to well use your remaining 10%, you channel your magic to its greatest extend and conjure a patch of kudzu! Six more trees fall from the skies, one landing directly on top of the kudzu, but the vines quickly grow to cover the tree entirely! The Kudzu, no longer threatened, is still growing fast enough for the growth to be visible, but it is not growing at an extremely alarming rate. It would seem that the vines grow aggressively, when they are being aggressive. Oh, GM, why must you pun me so?

Best three out of five.  Also, spam throwing beam swords.
The Meta-knight refuses your rematch!
"You've already invoked best two of three, and I've already won best two of three. That's it, we're done, I win, there's no more smash-offs between us. Now grow up and learn to accept defeat."

You are now pikachu.

Somehow, despite everything, it's still pikachu.

You attempt to murder Ash, but he survives, and runs too far away for you to chase him! Damn, that kid is fast.
[2]
You cannot create a pokemon army because there are no pokemon around to create an army of!
[6]
Angered by the excessive amount of twos, you unleash a legendary thunderbolt which destroys all the current world leaders in one fell swoop! Everyone is too terrified to fight back! The world is now ruled by an angry pikachu! Has the new final boss arisen?!?

Also, complain that a 6 doesn't mean you completely fail at your objective.  That's not how RTDs work.
You didn't fail completely. You actually did really freakin' well. You had the Meta-knight on the ropes and almost beat them, but the thing is that you were doing so good, in fact, that you got cocky and did something stupid, and that's all the Meta-knight needs to claim victory. Give an inch, they'll take a mile. That statement is as little a hyperbole as it'll ever be in this context.

Chaotic bloodmage: Health: 45% Magic: 10% Manna: 85%
Viznor the seer: Health: no reading. Magic: seemingly infinite. Manna: no reading. Injuries: Bruised fairly badly, mentally shaken.
Bardnir: Health: 107? Magic: 0? Manna: no reading. Status: dormant ass-vacuum.

Pikachu: Health: 100% Magic: none Manna PP: 90%

The number five: Health: 5 Magic: 5 Manna 5 Status: oldtree
The field has grown a copse of 40 old growth trees. There's also a whole lot of cut lumber sitting around.

That's not quite what I had in mind. I intended to send everyone back to the start of the adventure and play from there. oh well, maybe next time.
Chaotic bloodmage: Shrug it off and go back to enjoying tea, unless that pesky Pikachu tries to pull something.

This might be relevant to you, if you can stomach it then.

In-game, he says nothing, so, probably this action will result in you not saying anything (especially if it rolls a 6... Wait, would an overshot mean staying so close to canon that you remain silent, or actually saying some of those awful, corny lines? Paradox!) But if anything is said, expect it to be one of those quotes regarding the BFG 9,000

Complain that that's still not how it works so annoyingly that the meta knight goes away.
