Up To Eleven is a defunct trope


* UpToEleven: What do you get when you cross Sonic '06, one of the glitchiest games ever made, with Rawrzaur, a guy who can't help but break any game he plays? Pure undiluted glitch-filled hilarity, that's what.

* BlessedWithSuck: To him, this is what his game-breaking abilities are. To his viewers, they are an endless source of hilarity.
** Although WordOfGod says that Anon/Valkama(whatever floats your boat) is more likely to break a game than Rawr is.

** In another case of ridiculous luck, he played the slots in Pokemon: Fire Red and got 10 jackpots over the course of 17 minutes by just mashing A and not even trying to time the slots properly. For those interested in seeing it happen, here's the video: [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-u1qswujXyk link]].

* KaizoTrap: During his Battletoads stream. After defeating the final boss, he was killed by her during the post-battle cutscene. His reaction is exactly what you would expect given the situation.
** It happened again multiple times in his stream of Kaizo Megaman X, where modifications to several boss rooms would result in this when he beat them if he wasn't standing in the exact right spot.
*** Inverted in Billy's Messed Up Mario World, where after clearing one particular level and walking into what appears to be one of these, several off-screen springs prevent him from actually dying.

* SociallyAwkwardHero: He often manages to do the most difficult things in games fairly easily, but far easier things tend to frequently trip him up.
** Case in point, One might think that vanilla Super Mario World would be a piece of cake for him after playing through so many much more difficult games (including a more difficult romhack of that very game), but... [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r7RJla1e8eE Yeah...]]

* SymbolSwearing: He has censored the words Boshy and Kappa in his Twitch stream chat, so any attempt to say them will only result in *** appearing instead.

* TheComputerIsACheatingBastard: Encountered during his VS playthrough of Horror Land in Mario Party 2, where a CPU Normal controlled Mario ends up winning thanks to a second star on his last turn in a hidden block on the space he lands on. Billy, one of the players in the game, holds a grudge against Mario, even after playing Mario Party 3 on the Desert board and WINNING
** In his LP of VideoGame/ShaqFu, he notes how virtually every opponent has a much larger movepool than the the character he was forced to use. So naturally, it should come as no surprise that when he discovered the AIBreaker above, he exploited the heck out of it.

* WalkingTechbane: There isn't a single game known to man that Rawrzaur can't find a way to break, be it intentionally or not.
** Apparently it runs in the family: During a stream of Super Smash Bros Brawl, he had his little sister play and she glitched through the stage. See the highlight for yourself [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NHln3VdaG38 here]].
*** And as displayed in [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iuP4pPh27n8 this video]], it seems that it's also capable of spreading to his friends as well.

* AIBreaker: Discovered and abused during his LP of VideoGame/ShaqFu, where in the second part he discovers how badly the AI responds to repeated use of the jump kick move. Considering the trouble he had just trying to defeat the very first opponent in part 1 while trying to fight legitimately, seeing him suddenly exploiting this one move to plow his way straight to the final boss within a single part was pretty hilarious.

* MemeticBadass: [[http://yugioh.wikia.com/wiki/Turtle_Bird Turtlebird]]. So much so that in the stream that spawned the meme, an unintentional edit war was waged on [[http://yugioh.wikia.com/wiki/Main_Page Yugioh wiki]] with numerous stream viewers editing the text on Turtlebird's page to claim "Turtlebird is god" and other such things.
** Tractor rat; He gets the job done no matter what, and not even death can stop him. According to the stream chat, he was taught the ways of being a badass by turtlebird himself.



* NeverLiveItDown: Despite his desire to expand his horizons and play a greater variety of games, he will always have a legacy for playing I Wanna Be The Guy fangames.
* OldShame: He once created his own fangame, known as I Wanna Be The X. He now readily admits that it was a piece of crap. Upon playing it again himself during one of his streams, he began to wonder what the heck he was thinking when he designed certain areas of the game.



* SoBadItsGood: His view on Sonic '06 and Bad Rats among other things.

* WhatCouldHaveBeen: In [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=29K9Mk78sHk this video]], there is mention of a Mario Party round that wasn't recorded. One can only imagine the hilarious antics that happened in said match given Rawr's track record with that game.

Lost Forever was being misused. That's not the meaning of the trope. It's for when content inside a videogame can be gotten by Save Scumming or starting over your game. It's more like Missing Episode.


* LostForever: Anyone who didn't watch his original LP of Dark Souls II as it was being uploaded will never get the chance now, as the LP was canceled early on and the parts that had already been uploaded were removed.
** Many of his past streams are now lost due to Twitch deleting past broadcasts.

* SNKBoss: Sett Ra from ShaqFu, who was not only able to take off about a quarter of Rawr's health with each hit and only took half as much damage as the rest of the opponents did, but also managed to overcome the AIBreaker that Rawr had used to bulldoze his way through every other fight in the game. To put it in perspective, everything up to that point combined only took him 20 minutes. The battle against Sett Ra alone took him an hour to beat.
