* GracefulLoser: At first, Boomstick is not this as he insists Raiden's infinite ammo should have played an important factor. As the post-fight analysis continues, he concedes and admits Excalibur's tech and potential strength was better.

I swapped out the Unreveal for The Cameo in relation to the new Warframe that was built, as upon closer inspection, the shadow very much resembled the design of Atlas Prime's.
** Meanwhile at the end of the fight, the newly finished Warframe's shadow comes into frame, with its shadow very likely indicating it's Atlas Prime.

* TheUnreveal: After Excalibur finishes the fight, the warframe he was defending finished construction and approaches him, but is never seen before the analysis begins. Given that this episode was done as a promotion for Tennocon 2022, it's implied the frame in question was Styanax, who was first revealed at the convention.

* {{Irony}}: Wiz, the scientific genius who built his own robotic arm among numerous other impossible devices, apparently uses an old and beaten-up computer for conducting research. It even has duct tape on it and an entire chunk missing, wires coming out of the hole.

* BreakingOldTrends: Wiz and Boomstick do more than just analysis here and go out of their way to actually intervene during the fight itself, if only briefly.
* ManOfKryptonite: Raiden's High-frequency weapons are both the most dangerous weapons in his arsenal and could easily kill Excalibur if the Warframe isn't careful. Thanks to the Lotus' analysis and observations, Excalibur manages to disable his weapons with Glaxion and give it a better chance.

->'''Wiz:''' Fine, if I ''had'' to pick, I'd go with the [[VideoGame/{{Warframe}} very first Warframe ever created, the death-dealing techno-organic ninja, Excalibur]]!\\
'''Boomstick:''' You mean he's a cyborg ninja? Like [[VideoGame/MetalGear Raiden from Metal Gear]]?
It's a late night at the Death Battle HQ, as Wiz is up doing some research, specifically playing through ''Warframe'', much to Boomstick's surprise as it's supposed to be their day off, as he had arrived through... Rather uncertain means. As they continue to converse, Wiz brings up his favorite Warframe, Excalibur, who Boomstick is quite quick to compare to Raiden.

* TheCameo: Both Jocelyn and DUMMI are seen on the television screen in the office, part of a music playlist video that's a parody of various "Lofi beats to study/relax to" videos.
* FormulaBreakingEpisode: The episode's formula falls more in line with [[Recap/DeathBattleS08E11MachoManVsKoolAidMan Macho Man Vs Kool-Aid Man]]'s formula, with Wiz and Boomstick having different segueways into the characters as well as how the episode begins with it being a day off at the office, and Wiz and Boomstick both taking sides, Wiz rooting for Excalibur and Boomstick rooting for Raiden. There's also the fact that Wiz and Boomstick interrupt the fight as its going on, but unlike in ''Macho Man Vs Kool-Aid Man'' where it's just for more trivia, the two directly try to influence the fight in their rooted-for character's favor for a brief moment.
