* DiagnosedByTheAudience: Everyone, really, but Jace got the most speculation. He's shown signs of autism [[spoiler: (which his performer, Jan Rankowski, actually has)]], paranoid schizophrenia, narcissism, among other things. Tyce also had some hints at various traumas stemming from the death of his younger brother at the hands of an unjust police officer, or as Tyce himself would describe it, "Yeah my bro was basically a white Trayvon Martin, and I'm going to get the cops back bitch."* DracoInLeatherPants[=/=]MisaimedFandom: As Jan mentioned in the Final Livestream, despite his attempts to make him as reprehensible as possible, some people still ended up finding Jace hot.

That's a ZCE, also seems like troping real people.

** The reveal that Deagle Nation was a hoax was this for some, who were very disappointed that Jace and friends were not actually real people.
* WhatDoYouMeanItWasntMadeOnDrugs: Unlike most examples, Deagle Nation is not a MindScrew in the traditional sense of the term. However, Most of the performers seem to be on at least one substance at any given time. According to Jan Rankowski, though, he was never high when performing as Jace and he doesn't even use drugs in real life.

%%** The Fact Zone's bumper music, a public domain piece called [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=APpR9m2rk5E/ "Wallpaper"]]
** The monotonous yet addictive "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fbu4wVBvdck Marine-Trained Teen]]"
** "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oaQBrTROj2w Stop the Mosque at Ground Zero]]" sounds like a satirical song that might be heard on ''WesternAnimation/SouthPark'', but it's just ''so damn catchy''.

Cutlisting NF page since it only has two possibly valid examples.

Added DiffLines:

** Jace's absolute euphoria at his mom's death in ''[[VideoGame/TheSims3 The Sims 3]]'' during Weekly Livestream 10. He can barely contain himself, and it becomes somewhat disturbing.
** Jace lapsing into the persona of "Commander Stryker" during the Blazeing Zone Live stream. Though it's not without comedy, it's also a bit unsettling to watch what basically amounts to a man having a live mental breakdown.

* MemeticMutation: "Fucky you!" Or the longer version "Guck you duck you fucky you!" [[note]]Jace stammered badly while trying to say 'fuck you' and it has since been used to mock someone who appears to be having a temper tantrum on the internet.[[/note]]

* BrokenBase: TheReveal that Deagle Nation was just an elaborate hoax has made the fanbase very divisive. Some of them still enjoy the content and think that the fact that it's fake makes the whole thing even funnier, but others feel that Jan and crew [[DudeNotFunny went too far]] with it.

* DudeNotFunny:
** How some people reacted when they found out that the whole thing was an elaborate joke.
** The Wupocalypse arc, where Jace threatened and antagonized an innocent person, although in a typically absurd and inept manner.

Edit for accuracy. Jace ended the ruse when somebody discovered the link to his real identity, which was independent of Wupocalypse. He didn\'t get in any trouble for that, since Wu was trying to get a restraining order for a fictional character.


** The Wupocalypse arc - where Jace threatened and antagonized an innocent person - got him into serious trouble, so much that his actor, Jan, had to reveal that the series was a hoax.

* NoSuchThingAsBadPublicity: Despite Deagle Nation's purpose being troll bait, this was ultimately an [[AvertedTrope aversion]], as the Wupocalypse arc got Jan into serious trouble (see DudeNotFunny).

* ItWasHisSled: The reveal that Deagle Nation was all a hoax would be a major spoiler, except news of it spread like wildfire (this was during the Wupocalypse scandal, so journalists were quick to document this). It's now unlikely for newcomers to stumble across this series without soon discovering that Jace and friends are all just actors.

* StrawmanHasAPoint: Jace had these moments during his interview with Reuben Baron:
** When Reuben claimed Jace was breaking the law for [[PhonyVeteran lying about military service]], Jace brought up the Stolen Valor Act, which only covers those who lie to claim veterans' benefits. Jace claiming to be a marine/soldier/Navy SEAL, surprisingly, was legal.
** Jace also called out Reuben for his questionable journalism ethics: journalists should always maintain a neutral stance when documenting their subjects, which Reuben wasn't doing since he ''claimed to be a friend of Brianna Wu.'' This especially holds weight since one of the main driving points of Gamergate (which Jace claimed to be a part of) is ethics in video game journalism.

** From Jace's livestreams of ''TheSims3'', we have Soap the [[YourTomcatIsPregnant female]] "Parkour [[InsistentTerminology Wolf]]." She is supposed to be Jack Stryker's faithful companion, but instead she ruins his furniture and then bites him. When the house burns down due to [[strike: Jace's idiocy]] terrorists, Soap [[MakesJustAsMuchSenseInContext escapes the fire in a boat that she somehow got]] (likely due to a glitch caused by Jace's constant use of cheats).

* HilariousInHindsight: There's a ''[[TheSims3 Sims 3]]'' character that strongly resembles Jace, Hunter Cottoneye. He has a stubble and dark glasses, surrounds himself with military paraphernalia, and has a similar personality to Jace (in that he's [[ConspiracyTheorist neurotic]], [[{{Cloudcuckoolander}} insane]], and [[{{Jerkass}} mean-spirited]]). This Sim even makes a cameo in Jace's childhood re-enactment.
