Your editing when Emily was explaining the pre-build challenges is exactly what I heard at the time! 😆😆 I LOVE the enclosure you and Maddie built! Very well thought out and executed!!
I only ever see you at the build offs, and no lie dude, the glow up is real. I almost didn't recognise you! Loved the dragongate idea, it's nice to see a more stylised modern enclosure that still feels actually suitable for an animal enclosure.
Loved the enclosure and seeing your take on being involved with the event (love the editing 😂). Your team’s enclosure was a huge stand out when the enclosures were revealed before the builders were revealed. Loved the entire thing and so happy you were part of the event!
Out of a very, very close field, I chose your enclosure. There was a lot of consideration. I reluctantly struck Garret's beautiful magnum opus off the list because it wasn't an actual *enclosure*. I considered Garden State Tortoise, but I was a little turned off by the fact they'd done the exact same thing they did before, even though the result was awesome. I had the same issue with Adam's enclosure; it looked very similar to his prior winning entry, gorgeous though it was. I was also very impressed by Dav Kaufman's 'Stranger Things' and the 'Princess Mononoke' enclosures, but I lean toward more naturalistic styles. In the end, what tipped the scale in your favor was the Dragon Gate and the story of carps striving to become dragons. So know that all your efforts with the piece were NOT in vain! 😄
Absolutely love the gyrados waterfall so much man phenomenal job pretty sure I voted for yours amazing enclosure! Think that dragon gate gyrados waterfall should be sold in the pet store
Tyler you built such a phenomenal enclosure this year. I voted blindly and was blown away today when I saw that it was you two who built it!! It's been a joy seeing you every year And seeing Barbie on your shoulders makes me want a Retic 😍
I can't get over the editing for the challenge instructions! Had to call my neurodivergent daughter in here to show her. Brilliant! Amazed at your build-off too - I see a lot more details in the levels in here than on the SD videos. Fabulous job getting your broken piece back together; looks great. Good luck in the contest!
I don't know anything about Pokemon but voted blind for yours for the same reasons you listed in this video. There is clear improvement every year you and Maddie have taken part - I had never voted for you before, until now.
Loved the pokemon lore behind your build!! I think I have heard it both as Chinese mythology and Japanese mythology. Either way, the mighty koi carp turns into a dragon 🐲❤
Tyler!! I won your enclosure!!!!! I'm so excited! My family loves Pokémon and our school mascot is a dragon which my kids are obsessed with!! I'm so excited! I have followed you for years and love your and Maddie's content. It's honestly a dream come true! Thank you!
I voted for yours before i knew who made it! I felt like something that made yours stand out was I could see it being functional in every aspect while having a unique theme. it has good basking and hiding opportunities. I loved the other enclosures too! I almost voted for the jungle one, but I liked the balance of being naturalistic with a theme. I'm currently building a halloween themed enclosure and i just made a background using a ton of fake pumpkins. It looks like a pumpkin patch XD
I loved your build!!!! I don’t know who made the one I voted for, but I really enjoyed yours!! You can really see how hard you worked on your enclosure
I borrowed my sons and my uncles phones so I could vote for all 3 of my favourites. Yours, Garrets and the princess Mononoke themed one (don't know who made that yet).
Hey Tyler! Quick question real quick. I am looking at adopting my first crested gecko and I want to know if I could house an adult one in a tank that is 12”x12”x18”? Would that be considered wayyyy too small for just 1 adult crested gecko?
Love that Emily said it was supposed to be an ubiased voting so it wouldnt become a popularity test and then you said "fuck that everyone should know which is mine".. very sportsman like...
It’s been such a blast making enclosures with you over the past 4 years 🥺 we’ve come so far together ❤
Stoooop, the challenge explanation editing killed me 😂 You two did so amazing, I'm still in love with your build!
Voted for your enclosure before knowing who had built it. Thank you Tyler and Maddie.
Your editing when Emily was explaining the pre-build challenges is exactly what I heard at the time! 😆😆 I LOVE the enclosure you and Maddie built! Very well thought out and executed!!
You guys 100% nailed it!! The enclosure is so pretty!! The editing with Emily explaining stuff is hilarious!!! 😂
I voted for your enclosure as my favorite before I knew who built what. Gyrados is one of my favorite Pokemon! Great idea with the dragon gate.
I only ever see you at the build offs, and no lie dude, the glow up is real. I almost didn't recognise you! Loved the dragongate idea, it's nice to see a more stylised modern enclosure that still feels actually suitable for an animal enclosure.
Hi Barbie! You guys sure are crushing it this year!!
Thank you!!

You really did a fantastic job and deserve the win. Pretty amazing to do better each year and win the whole thing. Really an amazing enclosure.
The Emily edits were perfection 🤣

Time for the Build Off Binge Watch!

And seeing Barbie on your shoulders makes me want a Retic 😍
I remember the first buildoff when you got sprayfoam in your hair. I started watching your videos after that. 😂😂😂😂

Your enclosure was very cool, and I love the tie in with pop culture connecting to myth!
I love your build off surprises always so inventive ❤
1st year you were such good entertainment we wanted you back the next year. we all remember the glue fountain!
I don't know anything about Pokemon but voted blind for yours for the same reasons you listed in this video. There is clear improvement every year you and Maddie have taken part - I had never voted for you before, until now.
Omg it was your build all along that instantly got my vote without even knowing. Nicely done Tyler

It's an absolute beautiful enclosure. I also loved Bob's enclosure.
I voted for yours before knowing it was yours and so happy I did because I have been routing for you for the past 4 years

@@tylerrugge of course!!

Yours was so cute!
Crazy, I voted for yours it was between yours and #2… but decided yours had some neat details.
I absolutely love this, got my vote ❤
I voted for your wonderful enclosure!
Voted for your enclosure before seeing any videos. You did such a fab job!!
I voted for you, although I never watched your channel. I thought it was the best compromise between aesthetics and function.
I borrowed my sons and my uncles phones so I could vote for all 3 of my favourites. Yours, Garrets and the princess Mononoke themed one (don't know who made that yet).
Both my boyfriend and I voted for you! I love pokemon and reptiles. It was perfect!
You win 🎉
Missing you. It's been so long since you've posted 😢
Fact got
Do you think there will be a year 5 of the buildoff?
Looooooove this one!n
I have a question i did a 35x18x35 terrarium (90x45x90cm) will it be too big for my crested gecko?
💚💚

it was yours, but it was close

It was blind voting for the first 24 hours and then we were allowed to reveal who’s was who’s after that 😉
I wish it was! We held the lead for the entire blind voting time period.
