Comic #555: Spawncamping

Oh my gosh this one took ages to make. I started work on it on Wednesday, but between sourcing all of the various locations and drawing all of the ways in which Tyrone met his various untimely demises, I wasn’t able to finish it until today. But the end product is worth it! I think.

The question is: does Xane somehow know where and when Tyrone is going to spawn next, or is Tyrone’s luck really just that bad? I’m not sure which is funnier, which is why I decided to leave it open to interpretation…

  1. rest in peace Tyrone.

    Also, I was roleplaying with multiple characters.

    One of my characters got no attention apon getting out of a fusion (don’t ask) so he made like Aley and was all like “It’s so good to see you Newton! Oh, it’s good to see you too Newton!” and then two of my other characters said “Stop being an ale fairy, Newton!” in unison.

  2. Withered dragon head

    OH My gosh hi this is my first comment I have been reading the comics for 2 years.

  3. How does he keep losing the mini shark? You’d think that would keep him alive for at least a few more seconds.

  4. Cameron Stiles

    I do hate when that happens in games. Reminds me of some battles in Team Fortress 2 when the enemy sets up sentries right in front of the spawn doors and you can’t even get out or play the game at all. Although now that I think about it, it’s kinda weird that Tyrone keeps respawning in a bunch of completely different random locations around the world next to Xane rather than just at the town.

  5. Fors Coyt Anderson

    Hmm will Tyrone revere actually meet up with Maxx or just keep dying each time he respawns??? Guessing keep dying…

  6. So now we see a montage of Tyrone being deliberately killed by one certain Naiad assassin man, and after witnessing it, I can definitely see how personalities like Cyril’s began to surface. Maybe he died over and over from zombies with no way to defend himself before he found shelter. Don’t think he was spawn camped as hard as Tyrone. Poor guy, his 3 other non-Xane, non-Jesse deaths weren’t “as” intentional.

    Xane really seems to have a thing for sharks/fish.

    Another part of maybe relevant symbolism: Tyrone is wearing Jesse’s old hobo-cloak in panel 1 as a “sorry for killing you for April Fools'” get well gift. Xane, in the meantime, learned something from Cyril in the art of “holding weapons from the stabby ends”.

      1. He/she/they/it can be called anything. Males and females in LoM use he/she, respectively. Thanks for speakin’ up, but I just think Aley’s more likely to be a guy.

  7. Wait… If Aley tries to redeem themself from obliterating Tyrone in the past by healing him, this could evolve into how Tyrone finally joined the group.

    (At least until Xane… breathes)

  8. Don’t tell me that no here has spawn killed before and felt good about it. We have all done it, and if you think you haven’t you’re wrong.

    1. spawn camping can happen in any game with some sort of respawn thing in place. not just fortnite

    2. What does spawncamping even have to do with (The Forbidden Game) anyway? There’s no respawning… Regardless, spawncamping is when one team is trapped in a certain area of the map (usually a spawn room if the game features one), and it is extremely difficult or even outright impossible to escape, since they are constantly being killed mere seconds after spawning. The team that is getting spawncamped tends to be looking at a respawn screen for the majority of the game, while the spawncamping team gets tons of kills for their “skill”.

  9. *Tanks have been invented*
    *Conquers world*
    *Tyrone spawning under a tank and in a chain reaction destroying every tank*

    At least theres one scenario where his bad luck is good.

  10. I can’t help but respect the effort Xane puts into stabbing Tyrone when he materializes. I mean, how did he know that he was going to spawn there? Math? Luck? Guadance from an eldritch god? Who knows!

  11. And as for you’re ā€œkingdomā€ you can roll it up sideways and shove @*$)+::$:3… do things that would get me banned from this comet section.

  12. Ya see that’s kind of the problem, see my world is already at 36% corruption with no hallow, so I’d love to but being a Naiad is way to fun

  13. Also, the secrets of Naiad kind has far more memory that history itself couldn’t altar with our status of efficiency and effort

  14. Very professional!
    And why would you not want to be a Naiad? The corruption offers so much power, the enemies it spawns are both unique and adaptable, the treasures you find our powerful and valuable, all it takes is a good glimpse at the glory of the corruption and you too can be a Naiad.

  15. Heh don’t worry, I’m only called a “Naiad lunatic” cause I stab everything and everyone in my way…

  16. But why? The crimson has much better creatures than the corruption! They are brutal killing machines breed perfectly for combat! And the items and treasure within the crimson cave are made for the soul purpose of turning anything into a bloody gore pile!!! I would rather support the crimson much more than the corruption!

  17. Well, I would rather Maxx my way out eater of worlds and there’s no really fun way to kill the brain of Cthulhu šŸ™‚

  18. Skullparty76 the corruption is so much better than the crimson. The darkness of the chasms the creature’s it spawns the treasure you find not to mention the scourge of the corruptor is so much better than the silly vampire knives. The corruption has more to offer.

  19. And besides the crimson has no kind yet the corruption has the Naiads such as myself so tell me what would you even call yourself?

  20. And the crimson has no race it represents and name. The corruption has more range power with it’s spread.

  21. And no one cares for the crimson, it’s spread is weak, can the crimson make a demonic sword? No

  22. Our creatures are amazing, darkness is amazing, the powers are strong, we have a powerful enemies, what is there not to like?

    1. Ok wow. First of all, in your first comment you just repeated yourself and hardly stated any new evidence. Secondly, the only reason the crimson has no race to represent it is that the creator (aka Jese) has not made it so. In fact, the only reason you naiads even exist is because the creator placed it into his comic. If it weren’t for him the naiad would be no more than a thought in some random guys head. And as for you JEFF. A sword is only as good as the one using it. An ordinary crimson weapon such as the ā€œblood butcherā€ or ā€œmeatballā€ could easily defeat someone using a corrupt weapon if placed in the right hands. And… while it pains me to say it. While the corruption has vast demonic energy and creatures, the crimson only seems like dog crap in the eyes of the naiad because you don’t give it a chance. And before you ask, yes, I have given the corruption a chance and I don’t like it.

      (Omg is long) And the next thing I want to say is that all you naiad out there are just blue-haired propagandists seduced by the corruption who will forever live in darkness and not once shall you know the light. And lastly. Ehem, dear Jeff, xylan, and you naiad trooper. As long as Maxx lives there is no way you’ll corrupt the world. Notice that us crimson followers will not have to worry about an idiot sword swinger messing up our plans.

      And that is all I have for now, good day/night.

  23. Oh skullparty76, it’s cute seeing a guy who won’t give up. But face it, your weak crimson could never beat our corruption. I’ve already covered my world with 36% of it with no hallow to stop it. I’m going to cover my whole world with it and there is nothing you can do. So it would be best to stop before I stab your heart with the Terra Blade in which is in possession of me. P.s I’m a lunatic, Xane is a Maniac

    1. Oh Jeff, it’s cute seeing a guy who thinks he’s xanes equal. But face it, you will never be as or more powerful than Xane. As for your 36% corruption, I have already cover my world in 47% crimson with no hallow to stop it. I’m going to cover my whole world with it and there is nothing you can do.

      There, I’m talking just like you Jeff. You see how annoying you are?

  24. Skullparty76 I feel sorry for you because I have given your stupid crimson a chance before I became a Naiad and I’m proud to be a Naiad!

    1. Well thank you for giving it a chance! That’s sarcasm by the way. I feel sorry for you because I have given your stupid corruption a chance before I followed the crimson and I’m proud of it!

      Hopefully my mimicking shows you how annoying you both are.

  25. Crap you both, GO TO THE HOLLOW! They have balanced enemy’s, (not to gory, not to hard, well actually ALOT OF hard) but still, try da hollow you noobs.

  26. True true, the hallow is not the way to go. Out of honesty, the crimson is better than the hallow. But me and Xane are two different people, each with our own status and efficiency in effort. But at least we can agree the hallow is the planets disease, not the corruption/crimson

  27. Hey, at least the people in the hallow aren’t @#$&d up psychotic people who wanna destroy ALL LIFE ON THE PLANET! And also, the hollow is hard mode exclusive, at least people like me have the GUTS to face the hollow! P.S I got mauled by a unicorn the FIRST time I ever went to the hollow XD

  28. How is covering the world in corruption destroying all life on the planet? Have you forgotten that the corruption spawns it’s own life its merely the opposite of the life the silly hallow produces.

  29. Dear drabeveing, it is sad to see someone loyal to a biome with rainbow trees, and water that looks jello. No one other than yourself even cares for the hallow. Not to mention the dryad have done nothing to bring it back. Honestly the naiad have done much better work in accomplishing the goal of spreading the corruption. I will never, ever, EVER, be loyal to a biome who’s iconic enemy is a… unicorn.

    1. The fact that this is still a continuous conversation makes me wonder how humans lived long enough to invent tools.

  30. If anything, the crimson has more benefits than the hallow. And it’s true, the dryad have done nothing but go into hiding, not saving where they’re power comes from. It’s shameful to see what the dryad have to offer.

  31. The hollow is a nice place with FREE ALE FEIRYS! And, at least the dryad AREN’T power hungry pieces of &@#$!

  32. Well at least the corruption made it out of the demon seal. You guys just sit and let it happen knowing you don’t stand a chance against the corruption/crimson

  33. Just face it the puny never stood a chance against our corruption the Naiad will cover the world in darkness and no can stop us!

  34. That maybe true but her power is weakening every day as our power only gets stronger. The Naiad will wipe out the dryad kind and will be victorious!!!

  35. Hey don’t forget us crimson followers! We may be smaller than you naiad but we are still stronger than the hollow.

  36. I’ll.dwjdiwi

  37. But it doesn’t surprise me that he joined the dryad, they are all weak minded non-efficient scared to death, powerless pixie dust sucking Thorn in my side.

  38. I started on a project to increase corruption status by making a new world on top of my old world. It’s working so for if you wish to increase crimson

  39. Now I will cut the crimson some slack because yet it is a evil biome like the corruption but no matter what I will always be a Naiad.

  40. And to anyone reading this. Me and the naiad (Jeff and Xylan) agree on a few things, a few. However, this does not make us friends, and I think you can agree with me.

  41. Also (you may already know this) if you take pieces of the corruption and place them around the world it makes spreading much faster.

  42. Honestly I much prefer guns such as the gatligator or flamethrower. But melee combat works to.

  43. Your entrails shall be splattered across fields worth of land by the time we are done with you kid.

  44. *pumps shotgun with exploding bullets* *takes out legendary Excalibur and megashark* *loads murdeross star cannon* I’M READY!

  45. If you want to know look up ā€œvampire knivesā€, ā€œscourge of the corruptorā€, and ā€œtrue nights edgeā€.

  46. Bruh I’ve played terraria with you, I’M STRONGER THAN YOU! The only real threats to me are Jeff and Xylan boi.

  47. I’ve played with you online ONCE, and I regret it so badly now that I remember you from 3 months ago.

  48. Yes but scourge of the corruptor does not give you a health bonus for your killing spree.

  49. Jeff here is some advice. Never play online terraria with random people or this happens.

  50. Believe me, this kid has something coming. If I were him, I’d watch my back cause I can only talk to a dryad for so long before I start stabbing him/her. Drabe just joined because of conflict between the Crimson and the Corruption not knowing we don’t like the hallow and it’s creatures. If you ask me, if I could join him, I’d corrupt his world in 2.5 sec. Now being honest, I hate the crimson, but I can have some respect cause at least it can take over the weak hallow. But now he’s just saying random things that give us a reason to call him stupid. At least we know what we’re talking about.

  51. Drab is just saying random crap that he thinks will give him an edge but guess what? It won’t.

  52. Also I just realized we took an entire comment section where people can socialize and talk about the comic and turned it into something about ourselves.

    I feel kinda bad now (not really)

  53. Like Jeff said. We hate each other, period. The way things are going I don’t think we will ever actually get along. And I’m fine with that! I hate the corruption, the naiad, and anyone/anything that has something to do with them. But I swear I will join them if it means this kid shuts up.

  54. Drabevening you best shut up now before I send my Naiad army and skullparty76 sends his crimson army out to wipe you out and your puny hallow!!!

  55. Xylan like I said to Jeff, the corruption/crimson can’t take over the hollow, and the hollow itself can spread, fun fact in my first ever world I had a corrupted jungle so it was DANGEROUS when I tried to find yellow heart fruits XD

  56. And while I hate the naiad and all that they stand for, at least they are capable fighters who have the will to start a fight with people like you!

  57. Tisk tisk drabe, haven’t you realized that the hallow is only as strong as you make it? If corruption or crimson overtakes the hallow it can spread like placing grass on dirt. But what can I say? He’s only one dryad who thinks he can overcome everything

  58. Your friend Kiersten🌟

    Hi everyone! I just wanted to say that I’m back for the first time in what feels like forever. And man, did I miss this comic. I think I left way back then because Jesse said the comic would be on hiatus until fall in 2015(I think? It’s been a while…) and that seemed like an unfathomably long amount of time away. But I’m here now! It’s great to see that the comic is still going. I love the direction it’s going in.
