comment
Arenas is a Web Video series based on the Idverse, especially in Quake III: Arena, created by Tritin Multimedia, and directed by Joe Goss, in 2008. It follows the story of Doom, the character, although not in his classic Space Marine suit, as he's selected by the Vadrigar and taken to the Quake tournament.The characters appearing in this series are Doom, Ranger, Grunt, Mynx, Sarge, Visor, Gorre and Xaero.The episodes can be watched here.There were currently plans for a second season. Sadly, it won't happen because the project budget couldn't be achieved.

Take My Hand!: In "No Backing Down", before Sarge falls to the pit, Doom takes his hand. By virtue of the Demonic Possession, he later releases his hand, with Sarge falling to the pit.

Mythology Gag
 Arenas (Web Animation) / int_26ac510e
comment
Mythology Gag: Considering the Idverse as a whole, there're plenty of these: Some shots can be teleported and the jumppads can send the projectiles up, as a nod to Quake IV's multiplayer, which allows this. The final part of Sarge's flashback in "Last Stand" is a throwback to the intro cutscene of Quake III: Arena, where Sarge is decimating thousands of monsters with his chaingun. The aftermath of the match between Doom and Xaero in "REBELLION!" it's a throwback to the ending of the same game. The amulet Ranger gives to Doom in "The Amulet" has the shape of the Quake logo. At one point in "Chosen by the Vadrigar", Doom accesses a computer screen to see how many things came through the teleporter. Upon viewing the data for Phobos, the map screen that appears between levels in episode 1 of Doom shows up on the screen. The S2E1 reel "The Search for Bitterman" has a lot of nods to Enemy Territory: Quake Wars and Quake IV. Fans of the Id games may recognize many stages, aside of those which came with the game itself: "Chosen By The Vadrigar" takes place in a remixed version of the first map of Doom. "Doom's Deathmatch Birth" takes place in Temple of Retribution. (q3dm7) "No Backing Down" takes place in Proving Grounds. (q3tourney2) "Warriors of Slipgate" (both parts) takes place in The Longest Yard. (q3dm17) "Scrimmage" takes place in Wicked. (q3jdm8) "REBELLION!" takes place in The Camping Grounds. (q3dm6)

Gorre is meant to be this, acting as a Beef Gate between Xaero and Doom by simply having too much health and armor than is reasonable for any one fighter.

A Day in the Limelight: The introduction of both Ranger and Grunt, in "Warriors of Slipgate". There's no Doom in here. Also, the story of Sarge. In "Last Stand", Doom and Visor are talking about him in the resting area, while Sarge's regenerating. Cue flashback scenes about Sarge and Visor's previous fights in the Human-Strogg war. The S2E1 reel finally shows Bitterman.

SNK Boss: A rare non-videogame example played in-universe. Xaero can teleport while the other warriors can't, and has even more stamina and strength than any of the other warriors. Gorre is meant to be this, acting as a Beef Gate between Xaero and Doom by simply having too much health and armor than is reasonable for any one fighter.

Composite Character: Doom's pre-Arena story is depicted as a mixture of both Doom 3's visual aesthetic and backstory, with that design for the Doomguy, most demons, and the Soul Cube, and Doom 1's levels and main storyline. Visor is a mix of his III self and Gorre, with the latter serving as his Superpowered Evil Side.

When they can't defeat the Vadrigar, Doom goes again to said room and summons Gorre, who takes care of the Vadrigar. Cue the Sequel Hook.
