I'm scared to look at that link. Is it shipping?

Nope.

Is it worse?

Depends on your definition of "worse". It's weird, but not bad. Just watch it.

So they both apparently wield legendary weapons. I suspect this will be very, very important.

Especially since neither one's shown up at the lab where they troll the kids.

This being Homestuck, I'm not sure whether that's post-scratch Rose or Vriska with a wig.

Whoever said about Tavros being a friend of animals. He apparently has a psychic ability himself (might be more like an empath than telepath), so yea, red team has a potentially very powerful member there.

Having no actual enemies in the game due to his power is a little more than "might". Read his scene in the game again.

I'm just stating that he does have that power, also, I'm in the proccess of rereading that arc. I also read what someone said about the game turning into more of a RTS a page back.

Obviously, using their Lusii as prototypes gave their enemies lots of advantages; but with the all-important Black Queen refusing to be frog-ified, all other effects of the prototypings are just minor complications.  So once again the question is raised - if this gang of superpowered killing machines couldn't best Skaia or Lord English (or whatever the actual final boss is), what chance do the kids have?  Even if the Trolls' failure may actually stem from following the kids' advice thanks to Weird Time Shit, that's just all the more reason to expect failure.

Extremely powerful psychic, especially telekinesis and eye-lasers.  Receives visions and prophecies, and may have discerned all kinds of stuff about Skaia and their opponents with Aradia.  God-tier computer hacker (supposedly), in a gameworld where fucking with the game is a key to success; good enough to backtrace White Text Guy and decompile Captcha codes.
He wrote a code that allows them to communicate with nigh-omnipotent a cue ball who lives on their moon. Through a typewriter. Nothing supposed about it.

I can't beleve it. Erdian has self-esteme issues. He's made out to be a smug, insufferable, royal; but then Hussie goes and does this to us. The worst part is that it works without seeming like a stapled add-on to his personality. Damn your subverting my expectations, Andrew Hussie. Damn you forever.

Not to mention the white queen. What's to guarantee black is the only side against them?

They will likely pose neither team much challenge at all. Unless one of the links in the prototyping chain includes something especially huge and monstrous, but really, what are the odds of that happening?

Now this is interesting. Is this implying he's played Sgrub before? I thought it was about their larping games but "prototyping" caught my eye, and I didn't remember that being a part of the larping stuff.

Eridan and a bunch of other people have prior knowledge about the game they're playing. Feferi, Kanaya, and Aradia all seem to know what's going on beforehand. If there are more I don't remember who they are. At the very least, Sollux and Terezi have had dreams about angels and monkeys, respectively, so something's going on there but they don't really know what's going on.

Aradia knows because she's dead, Kanaya knows because she has Jade-like dreams and has Rose's walkthrough, and Feferi and Eridan probably know through Gl'Golyb.
