@Luis Suazo He did a whole heck of a lot more than that. He built the huge TCG sign out front, complete with pyrotechnics set off while anyone walks the street into the pyramid, he got Scar to set up a refreshments booth, he made a ton of splash potions for the crowd to throw onto the players and GM, he provided different fireworks that could be set off by some golden pressure plates in the stands. I might be missing more but that’s a lot! Trust Cub to make anything grand.
@@ChauNyan The amount of time he puts in for us is nothing less than insane. Remember how just a few weeks ago Tango asked him for help on Decked Out, and like a few days later he returned with 64 Lodestones?
A whole bunch of Limited Lifers and Hermits: “Etho’s washed up!” Etho: *lives longer than all the Limited Lifers who called him out* Etho: *wins Total Chaos after placing top three last time* Etho: *wins TCG Tournament after placing second during the season* Etho: *prepares to defend his Decked Out championship from season seven*
Plus, it would give the Hermits something more to spend diamonds on(or any other currency, diamonds are apparently too easy to get with Doc on the premises). Kinda like land in the shopping district two seasons ago. They could make the card sales owned by the server itself, or used for community projects the next version of ruler(my vote goes for burgomeister). Maybe Beef can even let people create new cards for a flat payout if they pass a rules committee. And it would give more chances for interaction, instead of everyone just doing farms or mega-builds.
@Luis Suazo yes but that applies to S9. Just like when a game has different periods and every period everyone gets reset and a new update is released(in this case new cards)
I like how Jevin has said “Don’t worry Etho! I’m the only here who’ll support you.” like 20 times without Etho responding once. The same happened last episode I think. 😢😂
@@luissuazo3684 If they wanted best of three, they should've complained when it started. And the rest of us should've ignored them anyway, because the Hermits make the rules for their own tournaments.
@Luis Suazo I would have liked a best out of three personally, but I expect maybe the hermits didn't want to because it would mean more play time and video time/editing time for all the matches. I don't think it's dumb that a TCG match can end so quickly, but I would have liked for the volatility of early-game wins to be balanced out a bit. But it's all fun.
@@ferrer_creator9091 i think its just too difficult and time consuming to schedule all the hermits to be around for that many matches, scheduling seems to be the biggest thing that hinders larger events
Gotta say it’s awesome how happy you sound Etho! I noticed it on a recent SMP episode where you giggled to yourself the whole way through the episode and it was so nice to hear. And again, on this episode, hearing you so lose and comfortable is super nice. Hopefully whatever is going on behind camera is calming down and this can continue. We love you Etho!
The fact that Etho doesn’t make thumbnails is something I really like about his videos. It makes them seem more normal, and way less clickbait-y. Also, they are often really good anyways
Congratulations Etho! That windows notifications sound really got me and I really like the little book and quill notes you've been adding into your videos lately. super fun!
32:15 is the best moment ever lol. So rare to see etho so expressively salty hahaha. Makes me rmb the time he got like 7 time creepered blasted and rage quit
That 2 week break really got me itching to see you win TCG. Tbh I had no doubt in my mind you’d win, you’re so strategic and enjoy learning and delving deep and finding the best way to win! GG on TCG and can’t wait to see you dominate (die) in tangos dungeon
Those were the best. I love the gym one where he plays the game recorded then he explain his strategy with a voice over. That time he played vanguard or something too was very cool to watch even tho i dont even play that card game. Might not be vanguard i forgot what tcg that was
The Symbolism in Etho and Xb being the play testers for the first ever game, now facing off in the grand finals tournament is amazing. It’s like a Pokémon rival leading up to this moment. Etho lost the first battle, but he rose quickly and won the last one!
Oh man, that was a really exciting final against XB. I'm not gonna lie. I was a little worried about the high damage deck that XB brought, but you still came out on top. Congratulations Etho. I'm looking forward to season two games with the new TCG cards.
Yeah, it was close. Just a little more damage and Etho wouldn't have been able to make that play. On the other hand, that was after so many random hits hitting in a row, so it goes both ways. GGs to both of them.
I like how etho can tell exactly when xb messed up and call him for flying too close to the sun. That was really the turning point, if xb had swaped out to wels there he would had been in a way stronger position and might just win
@@ionmeth2031 Yeah, previously Etho made a point in just delaying and tanking damage so he could get the cards he wanted. t's so important for his strategy, since he has to be ahead for it to work. That's why he has so many armours in the deck, and it's also why his opponent can't afford to lose points.
What an absolute dynamite episode!!! Had me on the edge of my seat! Loved all the details and fun crowd aspects that were in play for the final. It made for such a fun event! And of course, congrats Etho! I was rooting for you the whole time!
That TCG game against Doc was a real nailbiter! Easily the best match in the history of Hermitcraft TCG! I'm glad you won the Champion title, as I was rooting on you for it! Also, that Windows Update sound *nearly* got me. Thank you for the episode!
I love how amazing Etho is at minigames. Even if he isn't quite the PVP beast he used to be, his game sense and problem solving skills are unmatched and it really shines with minigames. First Decked Out winner, first TCG winner, this man cannot be stopped! It feels like every time, while most Hermits are just messing around, Etho is learning every quirk, exploit, and strategy and using them to their max. Its so entertaining to watch how he learns, masters, and then absolutely obliterates everyone when these long term minigames come out!
@@AnotherDuck I know, its just how Etho naturally is. The intelligent content is why I stuck around for a decade. The fact that he's so humble about it too really makes his skill shine all that much more.

GG on winning the TCG Championships! I was cheering for XB because underdog but seeing your pov was awesome! Taking back your efficiency book like that! Wow! It was a tight match! It was just as close as Doc and Impulse’s match! I loved XB’s “trash talk” it was funny that you acknowledged it. It was fun to see the Hermits open up the new packs like kids at Christmas! What a fun game!

It would've been a different match for sure, but pretty sure etho wins regardless.” -thelatemercutio
@@miniciominiciominicio that's true and I think a rematch would be fair. But with these kinda things you gotta weigh the pros and cons. A rematch would be awkward and could result in more mistakes, it would also be anticlimactic in both scenarios where 1) etho wins again 2) xb wins this time. The finale was hyped up and 3 hermits released videos on it already. You'd need to gather a good crowd of hermits for the rematch as well. All in all, it might be best for them to just leave it as is (ofc they would know best in the end)
@@jeffbronson3696 It doesn’t matter that all of them released episodes. They (xB, Joe, Beef, Cub) found out about it yesterday live on stream. It seems as if they didn’t tell Etho even though they all played 90 minutes of TCG together (not on stream, anyway). Beef himself said he was going to take a look at it. But if it’s true that none of them told Etho about it and just let him post this episode is unfortunate, to say the least. I would prefer to think the best of the hermits so until confirmed otherwise, I’ll assume Etho IS aware and that he along with xB and Beef talked about it and they decided against a rematch. Or they’ll farm it for more content. I don’t think it would be anticlimactic at all, especially they did the championship rematch live. They could make it an event. :)
@@miniciominiciominicio yeah, I was honestly surprised Etho uploaded this. I thought we wouldn't get it for at least a week. You're right. I do hope the Hermits hashed this out beforehand. I also saw some clips from the stream and I found it curious they hadn't mentioned it to Etho. I felt like he had a right to at least know and form his own opinion. But they probably told him later.
Didn’t realize it but by the end of it my cheeks hurt from smiling and laughing all the way through this episode. I definitely needed this today so thank you haha
I love how the "family" dynamics have spilled over from Last Life to HermitCraft. I really do wanna see Etho get into some of the quasi-roleplay that sometimes occurs on Hermitcraft. Its nice to see him slowly but surely break out of his shell over the years and embrace the chaos.
@@Top_Hat_Walrus Indeed, but so far it seems like they have kept it ironic, which is both far less cringe and far more funny. I can't ever recall Etho being cringy, so I doubt things will go that way.
Was routing for you Etho! Such a good mach! So glad you won TCG! Second in total chaos! Wouldn't call that washed up. Once Tango finishes Decked Out, it will be awesome to see you play it.
This was the best group play ive seen in a long time on HC! So much goodness from so many angles. Knowing Zeds there on top of everything else... Awesome video!
This was such a fun episode, absolutely amazing plays from you Etho. I've got to say Beef definitely made a very good game, hoping to see more of it for sure.
Vintage beef makes an important math mistake here at 34:14 that changed the outcome of the game. He reduces scars health from 260 to 240. so scars only takes 20 dammage instead of the 40. this changes the game later as etho is able later able to win because scar survies another round on 20 health. Wich scar would not have had if beef had applied the dammage correct here 34:14
hey etho! do you think you’ll ever get together again with beef and pause and do more stuff together as team canada? for example the CTM maps - i still go back and binge watch the series’ ❤
@@paxielle he’s pretty busy with outside stuff like work and kids, barely even has time for streaming let alone coordinating with beef and etho to record a series 😔
They are still friends tho pretty sure. A few week back when etho stop uploading so frequently and when he came back pause tweeted in his tweet, "you are finally back, now people can stop asking me if you are alive" or something jokingly like that. So its still possible for them to collab again maybe
@@ionmeth2031 yeah Pause def wasn’t saying they stopped being friends, just that Team Canada collabs are unlikely at this point. But not impossible, you’re right! If only haha
VintageBeef's pre-game speech was awesome. Really makes you feel like you're in a professionally organized, well sponsored and beautifully presented showdown on the same level as the best olympic fighting games!... specially the "I'm still bitter about that" moment xD
You are just the best. Always the best. The sense of humor, the aesthetic tastes, your wisdom, everything. The tcg matches are amazing, as well as total chaos. It’s always your video that makes me laugh the most, Etho.
hey etho. i recently got into a near fatal car crash. i have so much anxiety and depression that come with the event but your videos and self are always able to calm my nerves and let me know things are okay. i’m 18 and lost a lot of my family but you have always been there for me through your videos. you are my family and i wish i was able to thank you in person but regardless, thank you so so much, just for being you. ❤️
This was so awesome to see. I love how invested all the Hermits are in TCG! I hope this season gets to run for a long time just because I love everything in it so much.
Etho, putting a curse of binding pumpkin on someone's head while they are afk is the funniest thing ever. Maybe you could even try and make them pay to drop an anvil on their head to be even more chaotic. I've watched your channel since I was 10 years old, I'm turning 20 this year, it's been a great time.
Shout out to Cub for always being in the middle of coordinating a lot of these activities on HermitCraft.
@Luis Suazo He did a whole heck of a lot more than that. He built the huge TCG sign out front, complete with pyrotechnics set off while anyone walks the street into the pyramid, he got Scar to set up a refreshments booth, he made a ton of splash potions for the crowd to throw onto the players and GM, he provided different fireworks that could be set off by some golden pressure plates in the stands. I might be missing more but that’s a lot! Trust Cub to make anything grand.
Cub is the glue of hermitcraft.

He did that editing in one of the Life series debut. It’s a fitting addition for the Etho style.
@@kyrroti Very fitting. He is just not going to use anything in a Minecraft video that's not in the game.
I hope they bring the current TCG cards over to the next season of hermit craft, beef worked so hard on this and it’s amazing.
yeah, with the custom items plugin it should be easy to do in future seasons without having to create maps. Makes it easier to update/change them too
Plus, it would give the Hermits something more to spend diamonds on(or any other currency, diamonds are apparently too easy to get with Doc on the premises). Kinda like land in the shopping district two seasons ago. They could make the card sales owned by the server itself, or used for community projects the next version of ruler(my vote goes for burgomeister). Maybe Beef can even let people create new cards for a flat payout if they pass a rules committee. And it would give more chances for interaction, instead of everyone just doing farms or mega-builds.
@@Lightning_Lance they can even just move the map files over, no need for custom items
@Luis Suazo yes but that applies to S9. Just like when a game has different periods and every period everyone gets reset and a new update is released(in this case new cards)
It's not likely for them to go into the next season any time soon, there is no worry.
From Pixelmon to Decked Out and now the TCG. Etho will optimise every game. Amazing
He's a great strategist.
Don't forget his hearthstone series
Basically a full episode of collabs. Couldn't ask for anything more

Scar is unexpectedly a very strong card.

I would prefer to think the best of the hermits so until confirmed otherwise, I’ll assume Etho IS aware and that he along with xB and Beef talked about it and they decided against a rematch. Or they’ll farm it for more content. I don’t think it would be anticlimactic at all, especially they did the championship rematch live. They could make it an event. :)
@@miniciominiciominicio yeah, I was honestly surprised Etho uploaded this. I thought we wouldn't get it for at least a week. You're right. I do hope the Hermits hashed this out beforehand. I also saw some clips from the stream and I found it curious they hadn't mentioned it to Etho. I felt like he had a right to at least know and form his own opinion. But they probably told him later.
Everything cool that happened on this server, Etho is a part of.
We all know that etho isn't washed up just needed a bit of a refresher
No my man so washed up
@@ghosty94027 nah
@@Brandon34300he is washed up, in traditional pvp. Deviate from the standard though, and Etho shines
Nah, he’s drowning
The way Etho says “Golden Apple” when he plays the card will live rent free in my head for a long time
Didn’t realize it but by the end of it my cheeks hurt from smiling and laughing all the way through this episode. I definitely needed this today so thank you haha
I love how the "family" dynamics have spilled over from Last Life to HermitCraft. I really do wanna see Etho get into some of the quasi-roleplay that sometimes occurs on Hermitcraft. Its nice to see him slowly but surely break out of his shell over the years and embrace the chaos.
There is a large cringe potential but it can be fun
@@Top_Hat_Walrus Indeed, but so far it seems like they have kept it ironic, which is both far less cringe and far more funny. I can't ever recall Etho being cringy, so I doubt things will go that way.
Sneaky Zed at 24:39 getting a sneaky picture of Etho.
Was routing for you Etho! Such a good mach! So glad you won TCG! Second in total chaos! Wouldn't call that washed up. Once Tango finishes Decked Out, it will be awesome to see you play it.
This was the best group play ive seen in a long time on HC! So much goodness from so many angles. Knowing Zeds there on top of everything else... Awesome video!
This was such a fun episode, absolutely amazing plays from you Etho. I've got to say Beef definitely made a very good game, hoping to see more of it for sure.
Great video, Etho!
The "Lava bucket, ho!"....ahh, memories. Going to make me revisit some old videos.
So excited for this episode!
Also everyone half singing along to cub's TCG jingle is pure joy 😂
Vintage beef makes an important math mistake here at 34:14 that changed the outcome of the game. He reduces scars health from 260 to 240. so scars only takes 20 dammage instead of the 40. this changes the game later as etho is able later able to win because scar survies another round on 20 health. Wich scar would not have had if beef had applied the dammage correct here 34:14
hey etho! do you think you’ll ever get together again with beef and pause and do more stuff together as team canada? for example the CTM maps - i still go back and binge watch the series’ ❤
Pause has said that he doesn’t think it will happen anymore during a livestream, but stranger things have happened
@@Curundil Wait why not?... That's a bit sad
@@paxielle he’s pretty busy with outside stuff like work and kids, barely even has time for streaming let alone coordinating with beef and etho to record a series 😔
They are still friends tho pretty sure.
A few week back when etho stop uploading so frequently and when he came back pause tweeted in his tweet, "you are finally back, now people can stop asking me if you are alive" or something jokingly like that.
So its still possible for them to collab again maybe
@@ionmeth2031 yeah Pause def wasn’t saying they stopped being friends, just that Team Canada collabs are unlikely at this point. But not impossible, you’re right! If only haha
VintageBeef's pre-game speech was awesome. Really makes you feel like you're in a professionally organized, well sponsored and beautifully presented showdown on the same level as the best olympic fighting games!... specially the "I'm still bitter about that" moment xD
You are just the best. Always the best. The sense of humor, the aesthetic tastes, your wisdom, everything. The tcg matches are amazing, as well as total chaos. It’s always your video that makes me laugh the most, Etho.
People cheering on Cleo was like a fight going in secondary school 😂😂
hey etho. i recently got into a near fatal car crash. i have so much anxiety and depression that come with the event but your videos and self are always able to calm my nerves and let me know things are okay. i’m 18 and lost a lot of my family but you have always been there for me through your videos. you are my family and i wish i was able to thank you in person but regardless, thank you so so much, just for being you. ❤️
I have never clicked a video faster in my life, so excited for another fantastic video!!!!!
So you got faster since the last video? ;)
@@AnotherDuck faster than Xisuma! XD
This was so awesome to see. I love how invested all the Hermits are in TCG! I hope this season gets to run for a long time just because I love everything in it so much.
Singing along to Cuba's tcg song put the biggest smile on my face
I can't imagine the silent HYPE going on in Etho's brain at 3:36
If you haven't watched the life series it must be so confusing to hear Scar calling Etho Dad 😂
3:55 I love the reference to our favorite pigman. "Lava Bucket Ho!"
The championship finals was nailbitting!! Thanks for the awesome content Etho!!!
The book overlay note about the Windows update…
I love you Etho
Etho is literally so powerful, it’s incredible
Your videos are one of the only ones that can actually make me laugh out loud, thank you for making my life a happier one.
Cant wait for etho to dominate decket out too
Higgs Boson Disproof ! 😂🤣 Great name for your wings Etho, great name 👍
Etho really making me pick between watching his video and spending time with mom for mother's day rn... but of course, the choice is simple
Watch with your mom
Wow we got a real filial kid here HAHAHAHHAA totally not sarcasm
I was waiting forever for this match. Very exciting. That wither fiasco was hilarious
Another Crown to Etho... The Hermitcraft Minigame King!!! Heres to hopfully MANY hours of Decked Out!
Hmmm... 34:07 Beef did the maths wrong, he did -20 hp instead of -40 hp. So scar should have died in the end because he only had 20 hp left.
wow that first game was brutal!
I’ve literally never been so excited for a UA-cam video in my life! Let’s go Etho!
oh man, i realy need this today, tanks a million .
by the way congrats
05:26 Okay, but BDubs actually giving Jevin the diamonds is hilariously respectable
Seeing all the hermits get their new cards was so wholesome.
Etho, putting a curse of binding pumpkin on someone's head while they are afk is the funniest thing ever. Maybe you could even try and make them pay to drop an anvil on their head to be even more chaotic. I've watched your channel since I was 10 years old, I'm turning 20 this year, it's been a great time.
I have found Zed! You can barely spot him on Etho's corner vision at about 24:39 / 24:40
I’m loving theses 1 hour videos!!
Congrats on the win!! I can’t wait to see how the ice boat course turns out!
The excitement in their voices on all the new cards they got heartwarming. It sounded like a bunch of little kids at Christmas.
this was so stressful and yet i never doubted him for a second
