[CC]👑We Three Kings👑 COMPLETE Christmas Warrior Cats MAP

I am so very happy to be here and presenting you all with We Three Kings, a Christmas Warrior Cats MAP!!

Happy Holidays and cheers to you all! I hope you all had/have a wonderful time with your family, friends, or even yourself these next few days- remember to be safe out there and remind your loved ones how truly loved and appreciated they are!

[Note: Premiere have chance to be delayed]

Saying that, thank you to my very patient and kind and thoughtful participants and backups from the We Three Kings server! I had an absolute blast with you all, my most active and bustling server yet- with over 60 artists in it! I was worried that i'd be alone having to keep a constant eye on every one of you, but you were all a pleasant delight to work and chat with, very easy to communicate with ♥ Again, thank you from the bottom of my heart, I really was asking a lot from yall- you fought through school, final exams, your family, holiday shopping, AND this MAP's deadline??? Words can't express how deeply grateful I am. I can't wait to work with y'all again in the next year!

And of course thank you to Orion for pitching this idea to me in the first place! He was a wonderful help to hosting and managing the server when he could ^w^

Thank you again so much for offering to do the thumbnail, you really went above and beyond adding the kits, their adult versions, AND the singing star cats!

And now our lovely participants! I urge you to go check them out, they really deserve a lot of love!

The line of king, god, sacrifice was scarily fitting

[biohazard]

I like to think it was Hollyleaf’s job to make sure that Jayfeather and Lionblaze were there and had the necessary experiences to fulfill their prophecy in the end, and when the prophecy was fulfilled and she was no longer needed, she went back to StarClan

[da]

1:30 The hesitate before stepping towards Hollykit was a cool feature

[CrystalLightEevee]

Squirrelflight: Oh, Leafpool! Your kits are evolving!
0:50 – Lionkit evolves to King
1:08 – Jaykit evolves to God
1:49 – Hollykit evolves to sacrifice
Starclan: That's your Warrior cats team! 2:10
Leafpool: oh Starclan, great! King and God, and... Wait... SACRIFICE???

[kikiox]

Oh wow, I can’t believe Hollyleaf’s special power was dying for our sins!

[alteredangel]

Nobody:

Starclan cats around Hollykit: *chanting* Sacrifice! Sacrifice! Sacrifice!

Jokes aside, loving the designs used here. Jaykit's big ears are perfect lol

[nightgaze]

OvenCat's and OFUKITTY's part has to be my favourite! The way how they line up the three with the song, as well as how they place the kits. Loinkit looking as if he's yowling out, Jaykit just sleeping peacefully, and then Hollykit looking as if she's trying to hide away.

[yakoi]

"King and God and sacrifice"

When I tell you I got chills-

[crowla]

This was so good! Really makes you feel bad for Hollyleaf. The song is a perfect fit, very epic

[gruslen]

God, the part with Hollykit receiving her "gift" gave me chills. What a strong script and the animators did a fantastic job bringing it to life.

[puffanimates]

The hesitation to even get near hollykit, glaring and silencing the singing cats, the way that even though crying wasn't part of the granting holly her powers/fate the starclan cat still weeps for her since they know how hard it'll be for her and how it'll end.

But I also love the small design/animation details too! How lionblaze roars like a lion, how Jay feather looks like an all seeing angel, and how Holly not only gets scared when the tears hit her back them despite being from ghosts, later also hides away in fear and sorrow.

Just beautiful and chilling all at the same time.

[saladglove]

I can't get over how perfect this map is. There are so many layers to jaykit/jayfeather being an angel... The designs are beautiful, and the animators did amazing! This is definitely one of my most favorite maps now! I genuinely feel like I could probably write an entire paper about how amazing this is :0

[blossomnessstudios]

I WILL ALWAYS BE UPSET THAT HOLLYLEAF WASN'T ONE OF THE THREE they didn't have to do her like that, she would've been the best diplomat and leader.

[literateartist]

HIMBOBLAZE WHERE-
all jokes aside this map is stunning!
Every participant outdid themselves and the concept, background, and designs were all gorgeous to watch. Props to everyone involved in this project, you guys really made something beautiful!

[kiteathan]

obsessed with this map, it has the energy of those old school christmas maps from 2015 or something but it's so much higher quality and i adore it, all the animators did so well

[_note_tabby_]

The designs are so pretty
HECK the whole map is pretty!
I cant stop watching
I love it

[Grimalkind]

Such a beautiful MAP! Thank you so much to Sad Machine for having me, and thank you to everyone else who participated! I hope everyone enjoys the end result!

(I apologize in advance for any Hollyleaf feels you might get after this! Just think about Himbo Lionblaze and it’ll all get better)

[ilikechocoilikechcoc]

''Wow, SqurrielFlight my kits become pokemons'' (I love that map so much)

[Pinkstarclan]

Oh, everyone NAILED the body language and movements in the acting. also oh my god "cold dark tomb" hollyleaf

[MANCHKIN]

THIS GAVE ME GOOSEBUMPS!!!! Sad yyou did an awesome job as organizator AS ALWAYS and THE PALETTES, CHARACTER DESIGNS AND EVERYTHING IS JUST MAGNIFICENT! And the song fits so well too AHH
