CPU Championship Series (Web Animation) | comment |
The CPU Championship Series (or CPUCS, for short) is a web series by YouTuber Alpharad. The series has Alpha, alongside his friends JoSniffy and Turvis, commentate over Super Smash Bros. Ultimate tournaments; but as the name implies, these are not real-life tournaments, but ones where all the competitors are the game's Level 9 CPUs. Thanks to both the sometimes hilarious and sometimes badass scenarios that the computer players get into, we can assure you that it is much better than it sounds.Despite its humble beginnings as a continuation of Alpharad's previous Super Smash Bros. 4 CPU videos, thanks to a lot of fans who loved the group's commentary and had some creative explanations for some of the shenanigans that would occur in each video, the CPU Championship Series would soon create a separate name for itself by having Alpha and company canonize some of the fans' ideas while tossing in a fair amount of their own: thus creating something best described as an unscripted Machinima, wherein each tournament is an episode within a larger Story Arc featuring unique characters and lore that combines the fun of actual Super Smash Bros. tournaments with an anime-style Tournament Arc narrative. There's even a beach episode!The CPUCS just finished its fourth season, with the story being that two years have passed since the events of "The Vincent Saga", with villains both old and new starting to show up after a long absence. The most recent episode of the series was the non-canon "SUMMIT," released on September 17, 2019. While Alphard initially promised a fifth season of the series, Alpha and Jo would later reveal it was scrapped with them no longer having any desire to continue. Years later, Alpha would declare Season 4 to be non-canon, with Season 3 being the “true end�.You can find the playlist for the series here.

Sure, Let's Go with That | |
CPU Championship Series (Web Animation) / int_1086f287 | comment |
Sure, Let's Go with That: The bonus video "The Truth About Rosalina" reveals that the original plan for "TIMESKIP" was that Alpha and Jo would build Rosalina up as having dominated the tournament circuit over the past two years, only to claim she's washed up when she (inevitably) lost in the first round. Cue Alpha and Jo barely managing to keep up Kayfabe as Rosalina proceeds to win the tournament. Due to how the bracket wound up shaping up in "MAN VS MACHINE", Samus wound up going up against... Zero Suit Samus. The commentators were clearly confused about this happening, resulting in a last-minute retcon that Samus programed her suit to fight on its own. And then said suit winds up winning, much to Alpha's continued confusion. | |

Anyone Can Die | |
CPU Championship Series (Web Animation) / int_1237828f | comment |
Anyone Can Die: Subverted: Rosalina is seemingly killed at the end of the premiere by Blood Falcon, implying that this is set in force... but then Rosalina comes back in "PIZZA TIME"'s Thug Finals, with the revelation that Blood Falcon has no killing power in the Light Realm. This is taken up to eleven when Blood Falcon returns and kills one of the commentators, Jo. | |

CPU Championship Series (Web Animation) / int_1462f0d7 | comment |
"EVEREST" ends with Blood Falcon returning to challenge Naomi, but Tony steps in to defeat him... But he fails and is sent to the Dark Realm. But through sheer determination he comes back as the new Captain Falcon and teams up with Agent Naomi to defeat Blood Falcon and, unexpectedly, Dark Vincent, and sends them back to the Dark Realm. | |

Tempting Fate | |
CPU Championship Series (Web Animation) / int_15b2cab3 | comment |
Tempting Fate: Generally referred to as "Commentator's Curse" in-universe, where immediately after predicting one outcome, the opposite ends up happening. A non-"Commentator's Curse" example occurs when Alpharad laughs at the Captain Falcon vs Cloud matchup in "Plantational", only for both to have an absolutely wild match from start to finish, with Cloud even going on to win that tournament. | |

The Worf Effect | |
CPU Championship Series (Web Animation) / int_178ca149 | comment |
The Worf Effect: In record time. Rosalina is said and shown to have become an incredibly talented and strong fighter... only to lose her life to Blood Falcon in the end. What truly puts this trope in effect is the fact that Alpha and Jo did not expect she would win at all. "ROSALINA'S REVENGE" sees Rosalina once again make it all the way to finals, only for Naomi to take the win. Thug Finals of that episode sees Major go after Naomi, mad that she won the tournament... and then subsequently gets his ass handed to him. | |

All There in the Manual | |
CPU Championship Series (Web Animation) / int_17ce80aa | comment |
All There in the Manual: The LinusH111 saga is mostly encapsulated within the SubReddit. The official standings treats differently named alts of a character, such as Blue Incineroar and Panda Global|Incineroar, as separate when they enter a tournament. It helps for keeping track of each CPU's progress and when do they participate. Dark Ken's existence, in particular, was speculated by the fanbase but outright confirmed by the rankings page because of this. | |

CPU Championship Series (Web Animation) / int_36ed3e1e | comment |
Ascended Meme: The LinusH111 saga started with an innocent comment on the subreddit asking how to join the CPUCS. Despite the fact that the tourney is generally restricted to level 9 CPUs, the fanbase took the idea and ran away with it, flooding the sub with memes about him. This all culminated in Linus actually being added to a CPUCS video (admittedly as a one-off joke character), after which the fans promptly forgot about him. Matt's inclusion in "ENDGAME" is more or less this. | |

Toyconvict, who continues to break out of prison only to lose, only ever wins one match, gets permanently imprisoned after the events of "Prison Break", and tries to join forces with Dark Vince only to be knocked out on the first round of "ENDGAME" by Matt. Unlike Rosalina, Ken, and Dr. Mario, it helps that he isn't a sympathetic character, which makes his Butt-Monkey status all the more deserving. | |

Genre Roulette: With rulesets changing every season, you never know what to expect. Season 1 featured 4 Stocks, all stages with hazards off, and Final Smash meter on. Season 2 featured 5 Stocks, items, casual stages with hazards on, and Stage Morph on. Season 3 featured 3 Stocks, no items, and competitive stages with hazards off. "ENDGAME" was twice the size of a normal tournament with 32 competitors. It featured 5 Stocks and stages from the Dark Realm (i.e., custom stages from Stage Builder) with Final Smash meter on. Season 4 features 4 Stocks, all stages with hazards off, and Smash Ball on. | |

And then it's announced that Parsec|Captain Falcon and Blood Falcon were going to fight to the death. Blood Falcon winning changes the mood of the entire bracket, and even Vincent's victory over Dark Vincent in the next battle feels hollow. | |

However, at the same time, Blood Falcon was about to fall to his death off the stage, and Jo had the bright idea to jump down to him. | |

Due to how the bracket wound up shaping up in "MAN VS MACHINE", Samus wound up going up against... Zero Suit Samus. The commentators were clearly confused about this happening, resulting in a last-minute retcon that Samus programed her suit to fight on its own.

CPU Championship Series (Web Animation) / int_ac546cd4 | comment |
Worth It: Ridley rarely places well in tournaments, but makes up for it by pulling off impressive, crowd-pleasing stunts in nearly all of his matches. The commentators speculate that he doesn't particularly care whether he wins or loses, he only comes to the tournaments to do something cool and then go home so he can save a clip of it on Twitch. | |

Retcon: Discussed when the commentators talked about how the Beach Episode was originally non-canon, but due to its popularity with fans, they retroactively made it canon. Due to not expecting the Samus / Zero Suit Samus matchup in "MAN VS MACHINE", Alpha decides at the last minute that Samus' suit can operate on its own without Samus herself operating it. | |

Internal Homage | |
CPU Championship Series (Web Animation) / int_b545453b | comment |
Internal Homage: A rare unintentional example. In the finals of "ROSALINA'S REVENGE," Naomi defeats Rosalina by using her laser beam-based special attack to knock her off the top-right blastzone... the exact same way Dark Samus beat King K. Rool in the finals of the very first episode. Naomi is stated to have been a fan of the tournament, so it's possible she deliberately invoked it because she watched the earlier battles and knew it worked for Dark Samus. But given the nature of CPUs, it would be impossible to intentionally set this up. | |

Shout-Out: Literally the title of "Holding Out for a Hero" from the movie, Shrek 2. There are copious JoJo's Bizarre Adventure references sprinkled throughout the series. In "EVEREST," after Blood Falcon kills Tony, the words "But it refused" and a broken heart re-fusing are shown on-screen in what was probably a direct screencap of Undertale. The season 2 intros are set to "Cruel Angel's Thesis." | |

Captain Falcon was generally regarded as unmemorable, but began to shine in "Plantational", where he and Cloud had one hell of a wild match. When he returned during Season 3, he made it to finals of the second episode, got a sponsorship from Parsec in the following episode, and was chosen to go invade the Dark Realm in "Endgame". Sadly, he ended up getting Killed Off for Real after fighting Blood Falcon during Round 1 of Endgame. | |

CPU Championship Series (Web Animation) / int_dc579c91 | comment |
In record time. Rosalina is said and shown to have become an incredibly talented and strong fighter... only to lose her life to Blood Falcon in the end. What truly puts this trope in effect is the fact that Alpha and Jo did not expect she would win at all. | |

Audience Participation: Season 3's third episode included a Strawpoll link in which you could vote for which CPU will be brought along with Vincent, Audible|Link, and the champion of said episode, Blue Incineroar to fight the Dark Realm directly for the next tournament. A second poll was made on Alpharad's Twitter with the top choices in mind. The winners of this poll along with top choices of the fanbase were included in the tournament bracket's reveal. | |

Innocuously Important Episode | |
CPU Championship Series (Web Animation) / int_dee56696 | comment |
Innocuously Important Episode: The Beach Episode is a filler arc for the most part, but near its conclusion ends up with a minor arc of Blue Incineroar becoming prideful and vulnerable to the dark side after having taken many levels in badass in that episode and the previous one. Thug Finals revolves around PG|Incineroar coming back and punching some humility into his younger cousin. | |

Bizarro Episode: invoked The non-canon episode "SUMMIT", which features Jo and Vincent being alive again, newcomer Terry Bogard being sponsored by "the entirety of hip-hop" (only to then get dropped one round later), Major looking cool "like [he does] normally", the ruleset being 150hp Stamina Mode with random items and a 99:00 time limit, and a random invasion from the Dark Realm via "Squad Strike". | |

Evil Twin | |
CPU Championship Series (Web Animation) / int_f2dadf81 | comment |
Evil Twin: Dark Vincent is an alternate evil version of Vincent, who wields a gun and would ultimately overpower him and Link. Dark Ken is an alternate version of Ken (likely hired by Dark Vincent) who is more competent in the CPU tournaments than Ken himself and likely has a sinister purpose in the timeline as well. More characters from Dark Vincent's timeline are brought to the second Season 3 tournament, as well as in "ENDGAME." Blood Falcon is a different version of Captain Falcon, who is the first character to be able to kill fighters upon clearing out all of their stocks. Unlike the other evil twins, however, he doesn't side with the Dark Realm. | |

The Power of Friendship | |
CPU Championship Series (Web Animation) / int_faece9aa | comment |
The Power of Friendship: Thoroughly discussed and seen in action during the Beach Episode of all places. The power of "FDI" (Friendship Directional Influence) occasionally gets referenced later on in the series as well. Punished Convict comes from a timeline where he and Vincent became True Companions, and is noted to be a much more effective fighter than Toyconvict. It was theorized by the commentators that Kirby's close friendship with Dedede is what helped him defeat Blood Falcon and avenge Dedede. | |
