** Not to mention the final Episode/Chapter of Revelation when [[spoiler: Wash tries, and fails, to face Meta by himself...cue the Reds and Tucker rushing in to...actually save the day!]]
* There are a few instances of this in ''{{Survival of the Fittest}}''. A notable example is that of Seth Mattlock rescuing Bryan Calvert and Tory Johnson from a player - pulling it off in the true spirit of the trope: just in the nick of time. Amusingly, this is because he ''waited'' before pulling off the save, although he was, admittedly, trying to get the best possible shot on the bad guy. [[spoiler:It also turns into an unintentional HeroicSacrifice.]]
** Also in v4, [[spoiler: counter-terrorist group STAR show up, take Danya's HQ hostage, and rescue a large number of the students from the island.]]
* A somewhat common climax for the ''Bunny Kill'' series is for the hero to be outmatched by the BigBad and get saved by another major character...[[HeroicSacrifice only for that character to get effortlessly one-shotted]] by the BigBad.

* Andrew Hazel, who saves [[spoiler:Alec]] from [[spoiler:Boris's firing squad]] in ''[[Literature/{{Sapphire}} Sapphire Episode III]]''.
* TeamFourStar's ''DragonballZAbridged''{{Lampshade|Hanging}}s this upon Goku's entrance [[spoiler:into the fight versus Nappa and Vegeta. "Hey guys, what'd I miss? Oh. Are they all..."]]
* When the main characters are cornered in ''ThereWillBeBrawl'', Captain Falcon comes out of the alley, gives a speech about only ''he'' gets to bruise Pit's face, and Falcon Punches Saki and Issac to dust.
* Almost every time a new character is introduced in ''DeadFantasy'', said character is intervening to aid someone else in a fight. In fact, very few fights have had a clear winner, since every time someone's on the verge of defeat, someone else has come to save them. So far, Rikku, Hitomi, Tifa, Rinoa, [[spoiler:Cloud]], and [[spoiler:Ryu Hayabusa]] have pulled BigDamnHeroes moments.
* In ''DarwinsSoldiers'', when terrorists are attacking the control room, Shelton is saved by Cobalt Squad busting through a window.

** This trope pretty much makes up the beginning of the Anniversary battle, first by TheNostalgiaChick and then everyone coming in after her.
* In ''Yukari is Free,'' the [[VideoGame/TeamFortress2 RED Pyro]] gets quite an impressive one when he saves Fuuka from the BLU Spy.
* Since they were all about {{superhero}}ic action, most campaigns in the ''GlobalGuardiansPBEMUniverse'' featured this sort of scene all the freaking time.
* In the [[http://www.vimeo.com/4954944 second episode]] of ''WebOriginal/TheFantasticFavioBros'', [[EvilTwin LeTony]] tries to convince [[TheLancer Tony]] to take ecstasy as part of his goal of EverybodyMustGetStoned.

* Happens occasionally in MarvelsRPG, which comes with the {{Superhero}} setting. A recent example is Black Knight appearing from out of nowhere and cutting off the Hulk's arm to save Aura.
* [[spoiler: Ivan]] comes to Arthur's rescue in ''TheQuestForGeekdom'''s season 1 finale.
