Gamechamp plays the trolley dilemma:
"You see, by turning around and closing my eyes, I despawned all the people before the trolley hit them, so legally nobody died."

[keylimepython]

Being semantic, I don't think baby bowser is murdery: He is hauled away by kamek, continues to be a threat in later games, and grows up to be bowser, thus meaning he did not die here, so does not count as a death.

[TJ-Henry-Yoshi]

19:31 Normally I'm strongly against the splitting of a boolean variable such as life and death, but I'll make an exception just this once for Schrodinger's shy guy

[viohazard]

"This isn't a murder; it's just a successful attempted murder" is probably one of my favorite sentences of all time.

[shoujosiren]

technically bowser wasn't a kill because he's still alive to this very day

[Dabawaythepaincrng]

No known wrong warp in 3-7
"Fine, ill do it myself"

[henrygoggin]

19:23 "Nonetheless, despawning one of them is good enough. For the second one, commit cold-blooded murder by throwing an egg directly into its face. You might think a murder is a murder, but this one's actually only a _half_ murder. while the shy guy is sent into an inevitable death spiral, it despawns offscreen before it collides with anything. Since the shy guy is only _officially_ dead after collision, our crime is really better described as a successful _attempt_ at murder."

quality semantics right there

I like how being a pacifist in video games is just not killing things but in real life it’s actively being non-confrontational. Imagine if a real life pacifist threw someone down a pit but was like “eh, I didn’t SEE him die”

[h.p.wallnut]

“Yoshi tries to make up for his warcrimes: The Movie”

[awsumsas]

“I’m gonna play it safe and call this one murder.”

[JetblackJay]

Oh my god foreshadowing about smash bros

[papapineapple]

"...now politely and gently throw them down the pit" is a phrase I did not expect to hear nearly 4 minutes into a PACIFIST Yoshi's Island playthrough

[mrsteriotype]

It's hard being a pacifist in this game when you want to skin the thing you're trying to protect.

[StreetFighterFan]

Gamechamp: “Welcome back to VG Myths, the online internet video game TV show that will *never* do a Smash Brothers episode.”
Her fanbase, as of May 29, 2021: So that was a fucking lie

[captainblue]

"Gamechamp 3000, you have been charged with first degree murder. What is your defense?"
"Your honor, the millisecond the knife was thrown I quickly ran away from the scene, so I despawned the people before they died."

[mellow_mallow]

I don't know if Gamechamp will see this, but if they do:
I'm really happy you make these videos, your voice and your jokes bring me joy and comfort. They're perfect to watch when I'm having leg or back pain, and they're so well made, even the older ones which I find to be pretty rare on youtube. I wanna say thank you from the bottom of my heart for the amazing content. You're great!!!!

[baconisepic]

“will never do a smash bros episodes” brings up many questions that will never be answered

[jamuspham]

10:20 this shouldn’t count as a KO, he’s already a ghost and therefore he was dead before you even touched him

[nevertwice]

The dedication and semantics on Gamechamp is so strong that she discovered a wrong warp just to be a pacifist and for the content she creates for us. Thanks

[Optimusskyler]

Your honor, I didn't kill that Shy Guy, I just successfully attempted to murder it.

"Not guilty!"

I love this channel
