"STAR_" or "Ster" (real name Steven Serge) is a YouTuber and Twitch streamer. He is best known for his Team Fortress 2 videos, ranging from tips and tricks to casual live commentary to edited comedy videos, though he has since moved on from TF2. He also made videos featuring other games, including Tribes: Ascend, Grand Theft Auto IV, and more. He has several non-gaming related series as well, such as "Basically" where he takes a broad look at random media including movies, TV shows, and the odd video game, or "Story Time" where he doodles in Photoshop and tells casual stories from his life.STAR_ was a frequent collaborator with fellow TF2 YouTuber Jerma985, and the duo became well-known through videos such as the "Jerma is Mad" series. Their shared misadventures in various games were uploaded onto either his channel or Jerma's channel, resulting in twice the content starring the pair. They still occasionally stream together on Twitch today.For many years, STAR_ was also a fairly active competitive TF2 player, first for the 9v9 Highlander team named The Syndicate as a Heavy, then as a Sniper, Engineer, and Pyro at different points for Gangster Gang Gaming. They went on to win multiple Platinum games. He also played Scout for the 6v6 team Budsquad, and was backup for the Highlander team MURDERFORCE9000.note MURDERFORCE9000 is a reform of The Syndicate. From 2016 until 2020, he streamed Overwatch under Luminosity Gaming, and played for the US in the Overwatch World Cup 2016. Currently, he is working on The Myriad, a computer Role-Playing Game meant to streamline Tabletop RPG mechanics taking place in his own Constructed World, while also streaming Myriad development and test sessions as well as whatever else he feels like on Twitch.His main YouTube videos can be found on his main channel, and his alternate channel consists of random videos and Twitch highlights. His Twitch channel can be found here. | |

Cherry Tapping | |
| Star (Web Video) / int_10b6b5f7 | comment |
Cherry Tapping: STAR_ encounters numerous examples, the most common being "butterknifing," or attacking someone head-on with the Spy's butterfly knife. The most egregious example of this was in the 'Trade Ban Viaduct Demoman' video, where he stopped the commentary on his questionable ban on trade server to show and talked about 2 spies who had trapped an enemy sniper in the corner and were trying to butterknife him to death. | |

Victory Is Boring | |
| Star (Web Video) / int_1206dd74 | comment |
Victory Is Boring: In the 3rd heat of the 2013 TF2 Mix-up, STAR_ is supposedly in "try-hard mode", to make up for the goofing off he did in the previous heat that caused his team to lose their lead. After several matches where they hold their own against Team Cpt.Sparklez, STAR_ starts getting bored and begins slipping into "goofy mode" again. STAR_ then comes to his senses, saying "This was supposed to be the try-hard round!" His teammate Ridgedog then jokes about how STAR_ gets bored of winning. | |

Tempting Fate | |
| Star (Web Video) / int_15b2cab3 | comment |
Tempting Fate: In DoD of Defeat video, he said that every FPS game should have at least one map named after banana, the video after this, TFC Team Fortress Classic, has a jump map that is called Banana Land that STAR_ and Jerma enters. Most of its texture is just puke green grass, hurting the eyes of Jerma, STAR_ and probably the audience. In R.I.P Geetz 4, when Jerma called STAR_ out of for using the truck punchline in the beginning of their session, which was usually reserved for when they have no jokes left, STAR_ spawned in tons of boats and the caption read boat punchline. In Australium Sniper [Live], STAR_ played on a Skial server, noting that usually he avoids them but just wanted to play cp_Snakewater, as it had just been made an official map and wasn't widely spread on other servers yet. His team soon proves to be incompetent, and STAR_ proceeds to have an utterly terrible game before he snaps, goes Soldier, and promptly flattens the entire enemy team. In 'h1z1 the game', after the guy threatened to kill STAR_ for flipping him off, STAR_ thought he was bluffing because bullets are rare in this game. He then proceeded to get shot. In the same video, STAR_ saw a bear on the roof of a furniture store and assumed that the bear can't get down and hurt him. Cue the next clip, and suddenly a bear comes in and scared the living shit out of STAR_, complete with an over-the-top editing to show said spookiness. | |

Banned in China: Invoked in the 'Equally Randomized' video when STAR_ noticed that there was an unusual skull floating around everyone's Boston Basher, he predicted that it would not be allowed in China. He was making a reference to China's noticeable aversion to skeletons in media. | |

You Are Already Dead: In the 'Equally Randomized' video, after STAR_ died to Sharpened Volcano Fragment, he spectated his allies named Deadly Hornet, who is running away while burning at low health. STAR_ declared that he was dead to begin with. Same with the sudden death ending of that match, and yet both spies still ran away from each other, causing a stalemate. | |

Say My Name: REFLEX!!! DAVID F**KING BOWIE!! Invoked in Spooky Demo Arms where fans held up a placard saying 'STAR_, say my name' with the fans and friends creepily asked that to STAR_ repeatedly. STAR_ did eventually say someone's name, "TrukTruk", after Seanbud smacked him for using the sword, which doesn't induce a twitchy demo arm glitch like the rest of the demo arm gang. | |

By the Eyes of the Blind: In the 'GTA: Ghost World Insanity' video, STAR_, by some odd variations of glitches, managed to enter the ghost world version of the fast food restaurant and can't see anything within the kitchen. Jerma can see him, as well as several old ladies surrounding him for some reason and asked STAR_ to punch in thin air for him to know where they are. | |

Flat Joy: In the 'I main Budsquad 6v6' video, after STAR_ managed to get a pick on the enemy medic with a market gardener, no one even said anything since they were busy dealing with the rest of the opposing team. After STAR_ asked where is his respect, one of his mates just says "Great Job" monotonously. STAR_ even made it into a hitsound. Appreciate it. | |

Good Bad Bugs: Invoked in one of his video featured a demoman arm glitch, where if you crouch and tap the W or S key repeatedly as a demoman with a shield and a one handed melee weapon, his left arm would move back and forth. This is also what half of his GTA series of videos contains, alongside hilarious hacks and mods shenanigans.

Funny Background Event | |
| Star (Web Video) / int_26eb6287 | comment |
Funny Background Event: In the Scout Pan video, when STAR_ came out of the spawn at the last point, he witnessed 2 engineers trying to desap the teleporter from a persistent spy at the other side of the teleporter, STAR_ went away. Now pay close attention to the kill cam; almost immediately after he left, the 2 engies were telefragged by the same spy and the spy sapped everything. In 'Moron Medic', Jerma, playing kritz pocket medic to STAR_, deliberately walked off the edge of the cliff, dropping the kritz in the process. It took STAR_ several seconds to realize what happened. Toward the end of Jerma is Mad pt.2, three RED Spies all uncloak in front of STAR_ (also on RED). What's more, they all occupy the bottom of the scoreboard. In Jerma is Mad pt 3 video, a random Sniper goes up to a Heavy head on with a kukri. It goes as well as expected as the kill feed indicates. | |

Awesome, but Impractical: "Monoculus Mayhem": Using the Beggar's Bazooka on a x10 server, allowing it to shoot up to 30 rockets and, given a pair of Gunboats, rocket jump all around the map by rapidly overloading the barrel. Yes, it looks awesome. It also takes about 15 seconds to reload, and STAR_ struggles to kill anybody with it because of both the massive projectile deviation and the spontaneous nature of the Bazooka's misfires. He even manages to miss MONOCULUS! (a fairly large boss) from about ten feet away, the rockets going absolutely everywhere else. | |

Evolving Credits: His original title card is simply titled 'STAR' then disintegrates into blocks. Then at one point he decided to reverse it so that the blocks converge together into the title 'STAR_'. He changed it again in Whatmgonnaget video where he claimed that no one cares about the intro, and from then on the video's intro gets distorted in different ways. | |

Boring, but Practical | |
| Star (Web Video) / int_39b8d3d6 | comment |
Boring, but Practical: Among all the modified weapons STAR_ tried out in the 'Multiplied by ???' video, the default Scattergun works the best for him. When STAR_ discussed the top tier weapons in the 'Top Tier Scout' video, he recommended the default scattergun for building the most effective loadout, similar to how he recommends the stock rocket launcher for Soldier. In the 'Loadout (beta) Now With Hats!' video, STAR_ finds that the assault rifle in Loadout is the most effective out of all the weapons he created from the game's massive variety of weapon mods like homing missiles, multiple rockets and incendiary ammo. In "TF2: 21 vs 2", despite the massively overpowered powers and weapons STAR_ has given to himself and Jerma, the 21 sides won both of the matches. | |

The Cuckoo Lander Was Right: In Ask Nicely for Kritz, STAR_ decides to scream at the top of his lungs whenever he wants Jerma to activate his Kritz, all while Jerma is begging him to stop. The logic being that sometimes you can miss when somebody calls for the uber, so STAR_ decided to make it as unmistakeable as possible. Near the end of the video, however, Jerma mistakes his asking "can you use it?" as meaning that he wants Jerma to use the Kritz right then and activates it prematurely, leading to no kills and Jerma dying. | |

Noodle Incident | |
| Star (Web Video) / int_3c0a4666 | comment |
Noodle Incident: He tells a story about how he ended up in a mental hospital for the weekend in one of his "Story Time" videos. What joke does Jerma wanted to show STAR_ initially in the 'DoD of Defeat' video? We will never know. What about the thing Ma3laa does in 'Homing Crit Rockets' video that STAR_ left out? All we know about the Bone Zone mentioned in the 'Bone Zone Smash Bros' video is that it was an attraction at a zoo and has a plastic replica of a rhino with a plastic dick, beyond those details it was rather vague, like why does the Bone Zone have a bad reputation and what kind of school project Ma3laa has to justify bringing the kids there. In 'Basically-Sweet Genius', STAR_ was scared of reviewing the show because he thinks Ben Ron Israel might kill him...again. What happened at the first time, or was it the first time, and how was he alive? | |

Curb-Stomp Battle | |
| Star (Web Video) / int_3d699462 | comment |
Curb-Stomp Battle: Most of STAR_'s TF2 commentaries taking place in a pub server will have him achieving a respectable to high KDA, oftentimes picking off players who are lacking in situational awareness or just bad. Sometimes this happens even when he's using underpowered weapons or loadouts that he's not as experienced with. The final round of the 2013 TF2 Mixup involves Team STAR_ completely demolishing Team Yogscast 7-0 (not counting the two rounds where the latter used dev cheats), with one notable round where STAR_ killed 3 opponents by himself as Sniper as the last man standing. Based on STAR_'s commentary for the previous rounds, one gets the impression this is the first round that STAR_ began to try somewhat especially considering his team was unexperienced. | |

| Star (Web Video) / int_3ea462d7 | comment |
Take That, Audience!: In 'Basically-Scarlet Blade' video. Basically-Warframe boils down to STAR admitting he really enjoys the game and finds it fun, before discussing how people take his word on games that he purposely shows as being shitty and broken. STAR notes that he is condensing the time he played in the game down from 20 hours to 5 minutes, not showing all the good the game had to offer, and that people who take this as a legitimate demonstration of the game are naive. In his own words, "I'm totally an experienced and serious review channel". | |

Blatant Lies: In his Hightower Shovel Showdown video: Also, in the TF2 Servers video: In "TF2: The Duel" video, when Lange made a high-pitched grumble after STAR_ killed him, Lange said it was a 'war cry' to intimidate his foes. Subverted the very next clip when Lange jumped onto STAR_ and made a more manly version of the same grumble as he swung his caber at STAR_. In "Homing Crit Rockets" STAR_ claims "Schwicky Swag" is an anagram of Liberty Launcher. | |

Left It In: At one point "Jerma Is Mad pt 3", Jerma rants about STAR_ killing him again by headshot as soon as Jerma left spawn, yelling "Let's put cigarettes out on my dick!" In the very next clip, Jerma begs STAR_ to not include that line in the uploaded video. Obviously STAR_ listened to him. In the 'Upgraded Short Circuit' video, Ma3laa celebrated his MVP of the match status by uttering nonsense, then the clip cuts to black, with Ma3laa requesting that the part will not be in the video. STAR_ is a very good listener to his buddies. Subverted in 'Homing Crit Rocket' video, where Ma3laa asked if some unknown incident will go in the video. STAR_ left the question in, but edited out the incident itself. | |

Combat Pragmatist: When it comes to playing against Jerma, no trick is too dirty for STAR_ to try. Highlights include feigning diplomacy, lashing out when actually losing by way of killtaunt, spawn-camping, leaving the game to go on spectate to find invisible hiding Jerma (who himself was spawn-camping at the time), and constantly proposing duel-like engagements only to break the terms of the deal before he's even done talking. Jerma has learned to fight back along these lines, however, with a particularly brilliant bout of Obfuscating Stupidity. | |

By the time STAR_ got out, the sniper was killed and berated Jerma for that. | |

He later warned that if a player was named STAR_, that is not him because he always change up his name. | |

(referring to a BLU Scout capturing the control point.) Jerma still doesn't take the explanation, claiming STAR_'s tactics are like cheating. | |

Driven to Suicide | |
| Star (Web Video) / int_6d332aea | comment |
Driven to Suicide: In #Heatbringer video, STAR_ refused to heal a soldier who had only 8 health for shits and giggles, despite Ma3laa's suggestion to do so. The soldier appeared gradually more desperate as the setup timer counted down, and eventually killed himself. In the 'Bone Zone' video, STAR_ and another soldier spawned facing each other, making it a duel. The soldier yelled for help and then almost immediately jumped off the platform to his doom. | |

Deconstructive Parody | |
| Star (Web Video) / int_6dcbe9aa | comment |
Deconstructive Parody: 'Basically-Gorbo Grandman' deconstructs the idea of someone not having self control or free will. Gordo does the same thing everyday, but one day, he decides to spice things up a bit and explore the neighborhood. The end result is not being able to make friends and letting his house, along with himself, burn. It also deconstructs Narrators in stories by having Gorbo do everything STAR_ tells him to do. In the end, Gorbo can't decide what to do while his house burns down because someone's not telling him what to do. Which leads him to killing himself to escape it all. It's very similar to The Stanley Parable. What makes it a parody is that everything is Played for Laughs in a darkly humorous sort of way. | |

Just to add insult to injury, he also goes toe-to-toe with a Scout while carrying the Direct Hit. He empties his entire clip into the Scout, landing enough direct hits to send the Scout flying through the air at Mach 12. Despite that, the Scout somehow still lands and whacks STAR_ twice with a ham. As if that still wasn't enough, the Sniper from before comes back and delivers a Huntsman arrow directly to his face. STAR_ lost it. | |

Red Oni, Blue Oni | |
| Star (Web Video) / int_8411ab92 | comment |
Red Oni, Blue Oni: In terms of comedy duo with Jerma, STAR_ tends to be a blue oni (observational comedy, Deadpan Snarker) and Jerma tends to be red (more vocal, very upfront comedy). In terms of gameplay with Ma3laa, STAR_ is a blue to Ma3laa's red, with the former playing supportive and/or flanking classes in competitive environment like sniper, pyro and engineer in highlander and a scout and engineer in 6v6 while Ma3laa plays the more tanky classes like heavy in highlander and pocket soldier in 6v6. Even in pub servrs, this still applies when they play together, as STAR_ usually plays medic pocketing Ma3laa while Ma3laa plays demoman. Yet in terms of personality, STAR_ is a red to Ma3laa's blue, as the former is more frantic and the one calling the shots while Ma3laa was more laidback. | |

Ragtag Bunch of Misfits: STAR_'s Team for the TF2 Mixup for Charity. Though he himself is an excellent player, 3 of his teammates have never played the game before (Ridgedog, Trottimus, and alsmiffy), and the other one [kaz], while having played the game before, also is a low-level noob who is usually the first one dead. But they all get a lot of practice as the games go on and ultimately win in the finals. Hell, they don't just win the finals, they sweep 7 - 0 against Robin Walker, the game's head developer. It gets so lopsided that Robin's captain orders him to cheat just to "win" a round. | |

What happens when you give an entire server Valve Rocket Launchers? Answer: Weapons of Mass Destruction. It's not just rockets either.

Self-Imposed Challenge | |
| Star (Web Video) / int_8d4fcaa5 | comment |
Self-Imposed Challenge: In this video, STAR_ purposely equips the worst loadout he can think of: Rocket Jumper (Rockets do no damage, and at the time, doubled vulnerabilities to almost all damage), Gunboats (reduces self-damage from your own rockets), and Pain Train (10% weaker to bullets). Naturally, he doesn't do very well. He'd done "Discomfort Zone" videos where he uses weapons he dislikes or never uses. He's also made a video where he binds "S" to "explode", preventing him from ever moving backwards. In a later video, he takes W+M1 up to eleven by typing +forward and +attack into the console, forcing him to constantly attack and run forwards as Pyro, without using his keyboard at all. He gets the second-most amount of points on his team that round, and isn't far behind the one who's above him on the scoreboard. The entire point of 'Go! Go! Nippon!' video was to see if STAR_ can make an entertaining video out of playing a typical visual novel. YMMV if he succeeded or not. | |

Crazy Enough to Work: Double subverted in the '#HeatBringer' video. STAR_ sees the silhouette of the enemies at the spawn gate and figures he could just use the Kritzkrieg as soon as it opens and have his pocket Soldier Ma3laa kill them, only to be foiled by the enemy Medic who Ubered his pocket Heavy right out of the gate. In Sock'em Bopper Heavies, Jerma and STAR_ were about to camp a doorway with KGB-equipped heavies, until they notice there's 60 seconds left, and they haven't capped. So they decide to come in from behind and punch everyone to death instead. This time, it works. | |

Complacent Gaming Syndrome | |
| Star (Web Video) / int_931ef4f1 | comment |
Complacent Gaming Syndrome: Invoked and discussed in his Mann vs. Machine Metagame video. In the gameplay itself, this trope is averted since he is playing Spy in MvM, and very well at that. Invoked by STAR_ in the 'I Main Demoknight' video in that he did not get much practice on demoknighting on 6v6 scrims because teams do not want to fight against a team member who was breaking the meta. | |

Mighty Glacier: In the 'Delete This Idiot.mp4' video, STAR_ and TrukTruk had an idea of pushing forward with both of them being a brass beast heavy facing each other with their minigun revved so that they protect each other when they were slowly moving out. It did not work out too well. The very next clip, however, has the almost entire team as brass beast heavy revved forever, shredding down anyone in their line of sight. | |

Never My Fault: After a failed push to a last cap in the 'I main Demoknight 6v6' video, STAR_ figured that they failed to because one of his team mates is a sniper. Another one of his team mate called him out on that, to which STAR_ tried to justify it by saying that him as a demoknight and the sniper are both 'pick'(or assassin) classes and you can't have more than one pick classes in a 6s team. | |

Poke the Poodle: In the 'I Main Budsquad 6v6' video, STAR_ trolled his own medic by stealing a health pack, even when said medic is badly hurt and healing STAR_. Under normal, more serious circumstances, this would be more of Kick the Dog but in this case, the enemy team was nowhere to be found and the match was a half-serious scrim between friends and acquaintances who knew one another. | |

Crippling Overspecialization: STAR_ occasionally brings up that his profession of playing video games and doing commentary has left other areas of his worldly knowledge... lacking.

Eldritch Location: In the 'Australium Sniper' video, after he was done demonstrating what Australium weapons looks like with mat_phong 1 and 0 on cp_cloak, a test map, he mentioned that he finds it very spooky. Cue the next clip with his sniper running around helplessly with spooky filters and music as the camera zooms in on the Heavy's Thousand-Yard Stare. In 'TFC Team Fortress Classic' video, Jerma and STAR_ entered a map called 'Bananaland'. My God, puke green textures almost everywhere, nonsensical design and gameplay and in-server mic spams, couldn't get anymore eldritch than that. | |

This Is Gonna Suck: Paraphrased almost perfectly by STAR_ on his video as he played 'Go! Go! Nippon!' as he was playing about an hour. Again, YMMV whether the whole video sucks or not. When Jerma summarised STAR_'s plan of annoying him throughout his gameplay and make it into a video called 'The Diablo 3 Incident' video, Jerma simply said that the video's gonna suck. YMMV yet again if it's true or not. | |

Basically-Warframe boils down to STAR admitting he really enjoys the game and finds it fun, before discussing how people take his word on games that he purposely shows as being shitty and broken. STAR notes that he is condensing the time he played in the game down from 20 hours to 5 minutes, not showing all the good the game had to offer, and that people who take this as a legitimate demonstration of the game are naive. In his own words, "I'm totally an experienced and serious review channel". | |

In Dark Souls 2: Prepare To Buy Edition, it's jerma walking off cliffs.

And to a lesser extent, enemies walking off cliffs as well due to some faulty AI pathing. | |

One-Hit Kill | |
| Star (Web Video) / int_a414c3f0 | comment |
One-Hit Kill: In the 'Equally Randomized' video, when everyone got randomized into a scout with a Boston Basher, the Boston Basher was modified so that it took about half of your health immediately if you miss your swing, launched you to the air due to the high damage and if the bleed damage doesn't finish you, the landing will. On the other hand, if you did land the hit, it'd send the poor victim into the nearest wall with a 180-damage blow, so, basically, every swing was a One-Hit Kill, it'd just kill you if it missed. | |

Not to mention STAR_ rubbing this fact to Jerma's face by dropping it and picking up repeatedly to show its legendary status. | |

Oh, Crap! | |

Oh, Crap!: In Discomfort Zone: Soda Popper and Winger video, an enemy spy was holding on a high-five taunt during humiliation, when STAR_ and his team goes in to spawn to clean up, the spy was distraught. STAR_ then repeated, zoomed in and slowed that clip twice, both for showing the audience the face and as a stinger for his video. You can practically hear STAR_ saying this trope during the intro of the 'Aggressive Duck' video In the 'Depths Of Fear' video, STAR_ was making fun of the floaty walk animation the satyr guard possessed when it spotted him, STAR_ was startled and yelled "Oh shit!" Later in the video, he was practically scared shitless when he realized that neither spike trap nore a couple of barrel explosion can kill a satyr on their own. As he narrates in Having a Crate Time, he had one IRL when he had left with his brother to watch a meteor shower in a secluded area, and suddenly saw headlights shining on them in the middle of nowhere. Fortunately, it was just a police car, but he described the feeling thusly: In the 'Delete This Idiot.mp4' video, this was Seanbud's reaction when rocket jumped up to the roof only to find countless brass beast heavies gunning him down. | |

I Was Just Joking: During his stream of the Overwatch closed beta, STAR_ jokingly states that the game is terrible and says "better luck next time, Blizzard". Keep in mind that at the time he was mostly being watched by people who have never heard of him or his sense of humor and were only watching for the game itself, so following that little gag several thousand people abandoned the stream all at once. Acknowledged later, with one of the mods saying "Remember guys, he's serious about everything". | |

As it turns out, none of his weapon he's holding are Strange, stating that it makes no difference, and nobody cares. He also did a parody on a typical Call Of Duty skill montages on his Bonk Atomic Taunt Kills and a the last quarter of his Basically video on X-Com: The Bureau. In 'TF2: Surgeon Simulator 2013' video, after he see that the heavy's own lungs fit perfectly on his head, the next clip consisting of checking out a typical Steam Workshop comments section and mocked the people who simply called the item in question epic with no real comments to add to it and only begging Valve to add it in the game. With a sad puppy sliding up from the bottom right of the screen. Also, in the same video: | |

Too Dumb to Live: At the end of "Sniper Can WASD", STAR_ spots a scoped-in Sniper who clearly does not notice that he's on fire. As he disintegrates into a little pile of ash, the camera zooms in to a health pack just a few feet away. Several players in the Double Donk video, who keep walking right into the massive, spinning, noisy saws near the control point in Sawmill. The entire BLU Team in "TF2: Taunt Kill Bullies", on the receiving end of an Uberchain spree by STAR_ and Tagg. Many of them continue to play Heavy and shoot at the invulnerable duo, making them easy prey for the two stabbing Medics. Only one BLU has the clarity of mind to try to break the chain, first by stunning Tagg with a Huntsman taunt kill, then by airblasting them as a Pyro. | |

Hypocritical Humor | |
| Star (Web Video) / int_b707726f | comment |
Hypocritical Humor: In "Jerma is mad pt. 2": STAR_ also taunts every time he kills Jerma, even though he mocked this specifically in "Sniper Stomper". Subverted in "First Person - No Going Back". After a Medic who kills him jeers "You are also ugly!", STAR_ claims he would never call his victims ugly. He then tries and fails to kill an enemy Pyro, admitting he would have called him ugly once he killed him, but failed to complete the punchline. | |

Attention Deficit... Ooh, Shiny! | |
| Star (Web Video) / int_b7bc7d28 | comment |
Attention Deficit... Ooh, Shiny!: This quote: The reason why Ma3laa and, to a certain extent, STAR_ had slowed down their uploads for some time in 2011, as STAR_ explained in Answer Time: Competitive TF2, since competitive TF2 is fun and distracts them from making videos in public servers. In the #Heatbringer video: Highlighted in Sniper_Stomper. If STAR_ feels even the slightest bit bored and he has access to console commands at that moment, he will instinctively summon a bunch of large vehicles. In the GTA videos this was called the "truck punchline". | |

A few moments later, STAR_ killed a demoman with a crit flare and compliment Jerma for that good backstabs, then just proceeded to W+M1 half of the enemy team and killing all of them. | |

Tantrum Throwing: Of the three, it seems Ma3laa is the only one whose keyboard doesn't get the tar beaten out of it at some point. With one particularly brutal instance in the 'How to Sawmill Rollout' video, STAR_ smashed his keyboard so much because a mini-sentry killed him the second time, Windows popped up a Help and Support screen, which is about as close as you can get to a cry for help in this kind of situation. Subverted in the Diable 3 Incident video, where Ma3laa eventually gets tired of STAR and Jerma's nonsense and screams at them both to shut up. | |

It Makes Sense in Context: Many of his quotes: In-universe in the 'I Main Budsquad 6v6' video. STAR_ kept muttering that he was the 'new Powah' as a sniper, the prove it by sniping a scout in close range to cap the last point. STAR_ put it into perspective by showing an old clip on Twitch of a player named 'Powah' sniping a medic in close range, then the scout who was shooting him, goes afk in celebration for a while, then came back and momentarily kill the medic again. | |

So Unfunny, It's Funny: In the 'DoD of Defeat' video, Jerma done something funny to warrant STAR_ to come over and see. The problem was that STAR_ was on the other team, to which STAR_ provided a solution of killing the whole team except Jerma who was holding the shovel. After all the work STAR_ went through to see the joke, Jerma forgot how it goes and shoots all over the place with a machinegun in frustration. STAR_ said that it was not funny, while trying to stifle his laugh, then Jerma just killed him in confusion of what to do next. STAR_ finally begrudgingly admitted that it was funny. | |

Hard Work Hardly Works | |
| Star (Web Video) / int_cc427069 | comment |
Hard Work Hardly Works: In his video called TF2: Bone Zone Smash Bros, STAR_ at one points switches to Soldier (previously seen in another video to be an absolute war terror in STAR_'s hands) and has to fight a Sniper, one on one. With each and every rocket, he effortlessly juggles the Sniper - who promptly whacks him with the Bushwhacka exactly one time and instantly kills him. STAR_ is understandably outraged. Just to add insult to injury, he also goes toe-to-toe with a Scout while carrying the Direct Hit. He empties his entire clip into the Scout, landing enough direct hits to send the Scout flying through the air at Mach 12. Despite that, the Scout somehow still lands and whacks STAR_ twice with a ham. As if that still wasn't enough, the Sniper from before comes back and delivers a Huntsman arrow directly to his face. STAR_ lost it. | |

Roaring Rampage of Revenge: At first in his "TF2: Australium Sniper" video, STAR_ spent thirteen minutes alternating between raging over 2 engineers camping on last point and trying to accomplish as much as he can as a sniper until the engies inexplicably disappeared, just as the enemy team pushed to the point. STAR_ straight-up flipped out, switched to soldier (claiming it's technically within the video theme of austrialium weapons) and dominated the enemy team. And as if that's not enough, one of the video's last clips shows STAR_'s killstreak in the corner to be SIXTEEN. Then switched back to sniper. | |

As revealed in his Discomfort Zone videos, he doesn't even like using them himself purely because it makes him feel bad for other people. Lampshaded with this quote, said after seven minutes of owning most of BLU Team with just one life in the 'Full Speed Distraction' video; he turns one corner too many and... Mini-sentries are banned on his public server. | |

Screw This, I'm Outta Here: When Jerma kritzed the scout in the 'Moron Medic' video, STAR_ stared at them, at loss of words, then turned around and walked away. Subverted the next clip. Jerma used this trope in the 'Diablo 3 Incident' video when he realized he was walking backwards and have made little progress with STAR_, a near naked useless witch doctor millstone, around. In the 'I Main Budsquad 6v6' video, after Powah made an amazing play, he threw down his headset and went afk to celebrate it. In 'Garbage Guardians', when STAR_ sees that Jerma was playing as a pirate pyro, STAR_ backed up a bit then just ran away from the pursuing Jerma, claiming that they'd have done played the game and wanting Jerma to go away. | |

| Star (Web Video) / int_da72023b | comment |
Back to School: STAR_ dropped out of high school, wanting to become a professional artist, which apparently does not require a high school diploma. He gets his high school diploma later. | |

Mondegreen Gag: A minor one in the Double Donk video, when he go crazy with his choppas(an AK-47 reskin of the SMG), he briefly sang the chorus of "Where Da Hood At" by DMX but sang it as "Where mah hood, where mah hood, where mah hood". In his video of his gameplay of Tactical Intervention 1.6: STAR_ intentionally invoked the trope in 'Basically-Sweet Genius': And in another clip in the same video: | |

| Star (Web Video) / int_dcb9c541 | comment |
Ship Tease: It's more of a tease towards Jerma rather than the fan's hilarious STAR_xJerma ships but, nonetheless, in the 'The Diablo 3 Incident' video, STAR_ typed to remind Jerma of their 'honeymoon' and have been sweet talking him to play Diablo 3 again. | |

Broken Record | |
| Star (Web Video) / int_e085feeb | comment |
Broken Record: In the 'Equally Randomized' video, STAR_ still has the 'Great Job' hitsound (appreciate it), from the 'I Main Budsquad 6v6' video. Combine that, with the crusader's crossbow's modified to have bleed damage and it produced this trope with STAR_ just playing along and saying 'Good Job' along with the hitsound. | |

Literal-Minded: Exploited in 'STAR_ #1 TF2 coach NA'. STAR_ was asked to coach a player, he accepted, but noticed that the map he was loading into was an idle map. STAR_ just rolled with it and teach the player how to idle. In 'TF2: I Main Demoknight 6v6' video, after STAR_ managed to get a medic kill as a demoknight, Lange said that the play is going into his folder. Cue the clip itself shrunk and being tucked away into a folder. In 'Basically-Sweet Genius', one of the contestant claimed he is going to bring his A-game against the young cats, cue the next clip showing a (presumably young) cat in a suit with a birthday cake. | |

Made of Explodium: Seems to be for the vehicles in Basically: Ravaged video, where a simple collision with other vehicles or rocks can caused the quad to explode. In the 'Depths Of Fear' video, apparently you only need to stab a barrel with a dingy dagger to light the barrel on fire and explode. Made of Iron: In the 'Depths Of fear' video, the satyr can take a spike trap up it's butt or a full frontal explosion from the barrel and it would still be chasing after STAR_. | |

Arson Murder And Jay Walking: In the 'Bone Zone' video, when Ma3laa brings kids to the "Bone Zone" in the zoo for a school project, 4 kids ended up playing with a plastic rhino's dick, there were Bone Zone fights between the kids where they threw dirt at each other or straight up punched each other in the face, and finally an old lady complained to Ma3laa to control 'his' kids. | |

Manipulative Editing | |
| Star (Web Video) / int_e409de66 | comment |
Manipulative Editing: STAR_ theorized in "Basically: Sweet Genius" that the gargoyles in charge of editing Sweet Genius were trying to hide that Ron Ben-Israel is a demonic overlord, but have a tendency to slip up. Same goes for one of the contestants, Amos Hayon, in that the gargoyles tried to focus on his Star of David necklace to show that he is from the geographical location of Israel rather than being a clone of Ron. In one of the alternate realities in "TF2: What Really Happened?," STAR_ edits Jerma to make it sound like he concedes his "duel" with him. | |

We Need a Distraction | |
| Star (Web Video) / int_e43b42ea | comment |
We Need a Distraction: In "Annoying Spies" and "You Shouldn't Be Here", the unconventional strategy of two undisguised Spies standing out in the open headshotting people had the side effect of attracting a lot of enemy attention. Even while the point somewhere else on the map was being contested, several enemies would waste time searching their backlines for what amounted to two nuisances. | |

O.O.C. Is Serious Business | |
| Star (Web Video) / int_e83f211c | comment |
O.O.C. Is Serious Business: In the Basically video of Scarlet Blade, STAR_ actually loosely based around basic review format, with sections on character decoration, gameplay and the story, unlike his other Basically videos where he just messed around and talked about the game in general, and in all of those sections, he finds that Scarlet Blade failed in all of them. Then he concludes the video by stating, without exaggerations, that Scarlet Blade is the worst game he ever played and not in a traditional technical and gameplay sense like Superman64, the game works but he'd rather be glitching than witnessing the game in all its misogynistic form. Ma3laa gets to be the one going into this in the Diable 3 Incident video. Both Jerma and STAR_ had their chats connected with his, and, while usually quite a chill guy, he was definitely not enjoying their shenanigans. | |

Jerkass: In Sock'em Bopper Hevies video, it was a Demoman called 'Obamacare'. For starters, he called STAR_ 'noob heavy' after killing him, apparently ignoring the fact that STAR_ was just playing around with a KGB. Several clips later, Jerma was wrecking the RED team with a Buffalo Steak Sandvich-KGB combo, only to have his streak stopped by a sentry gun, and Obamacare still called him a noob. Then there are numerous testaments to his jerkassery on Youtube comments and Reddit thread... | |

STAR_ and Jerma left with exactly a thousand health. Unfortunately, the enemy Heavies also had the same idea, and since all of them only had a shotgun and Eviction Notice to fight with, it meant battles could go on for quite a while. | |

Running Gag | |
| Star (Web Video) / int_f9f2c33 | comment |
Running Gag: Intially, his deep Mako voice's purpose was to fill in the dead air in the editing process, started in when he was concentrating in TF2: First Person No Going Back video. Then it somewhat evolves into full on gag What Game Is This. From the 'Jerma Is Mad' trilogy. Y'know, don't... say... sw-swears... From the same series, "counting cards".Explanation Jerma and STAR_ chat through Skype, meaning STAR_ can hear what Jerma is saying to the enemy team despite not being on an "alltalk server". From 'Basically: Sega's All Star Racing' videoOh no! In Dark Souls 2: Prepare To Buy Edition, it's jerma walking off cliffs. It would have gone into Overly-Long Gag if it weren't for the fact that ALL of the falls were unintentional and weren't meant to be jokes for the video, much to STAR_'s increasing irritation. And to a lesser extent, enemies walking off cliffs as well due to some faulty AI pathing. | |
