Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_content_3'); })TubeClash is an animated original web series by German YouTube channel Darkviktory.The series' concept resembles that of Battle Royale, a group of seemingly random chosen persons being thrown into a strange and often hostie environment in which they must try to both survive and eliminate their rivals to come out as winner. In TubeClash however, the participants are avatars of popular german Youtubers, divided into two group, or rather two "Clashes", Clash A and B. Each team's goal is to eliminate the entirety of the rival Clash first, then fight amongst each other until only one remains. It should be noted that both the plot and characters of the series are more comical in tone than the premise might suggest. This is a deliberate choice of the designers, who favoured producing a parody with drama elements over an outright drama.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_content_2'); })The series' first episode aired on the 22th of August 2014. The first season consists of ten episodes of varying run times.This is mainly due to the unique nature of the series, mainly the participation of it's spectators. Rather than writing the entirety of the plot beforehand, the producers instead pick comments and suggestions which they consider benefitial to the overall story and implement them, causing them to write every new episode shortly after the previous one was uploaded.In addition, the series' fans get another way of influencing the plot by voting for certain Clashers, namely voting whether or not they want them to survive another episode. The two Clashers with the least amount of votes are in danger of being the one to die in the episode following the vote, a coin flip ultimately decides their respective fates.This is the series' primal unique feature and the main cause for it's large popularity amongst the german Youtube community.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_content_1'); })Darkviktory has stated that the series is slated to be a trilogy.

Trailers Always Spoil: The trailer/preview shows Julien in the Season 1 trailer and Melina in the Season 2 trailer, so both their surprising entrances in each season's first episodes are not all that surprising.

Darker and Edgier: Season 2 is this compared to Season 1, the implementation of blood being one reason. The deaths of the Clashers also get progressively more dark throughout the second season, as does the entire story. It also ends on the darkest note of any episode up to that point.

Never Trust a Trailer: The first season's trailer/preview contains scenes that never made it into the season, like Clash B taking down a gigantic Creeper together. The second season's trailer does this as well. Then again, they are not really trailers in the traditional sense, therefore they get a pass.

comment
The Scrappy: A rare case, where literally anyone can be this, depending on the viewer. Since all of the Clashers are real life Youtubers with their own channels and fanbase, it is entirely possible for a Clasher to be despised by fans simply because of their real life counterpart, regardless of their actual demeanor in the series. This is especially notable with Dagi Bee, who was despised by a large part of the viewers despite being absolutely likable and relatable In-Universe.

Death Is Cheap: None of the "eliminated" Clashers stay dead, either because they never died in the first place, as it is often the case in Season 1, or because the other Clashers find a way to revive them in the end, as seen at the end of Season 2.

Downer Ending: And how. Season 2 ends on a much darker note than any episode up to that point. After everyone comes back to life and they happily reunite, it is revealed that the massive influx of data from the previous year/season has caused the system to freeze, causing the entire environment to literally be engulfed by ice. The final sentences of Julien Bam via offscreen-narration say it all:

Big Bad: The Master, a classical villain resembling a crazed showmaster, who set up the whole thing and forces the Clashers to fight each other, all for entertainment's sake. Uses a voice distorter to disguise his identity. His appearance slighlty changes in Season 2, as does as his secret identity.
