** Act [[spoiler:48]]'s climactic battle against [[spoiler:Cielo's father, Ineur,]] is objectively one of the most difficult fights in the entire game to the extent where most players will end up cheesing him using Chester Chai.
* WhatCouldHaveBeen: Three words: [[{{Crossover}} The]] [[AscendedFanon Empire]] [[DarkerAndEdgier Arc.]] In the Empire Arc, Team Varia was to team up with an enigmatic new faction called the "Pocket Dimension". The arc would have chronicled both teams' attempts at retrieving one of the artifacts and helping the Pocket Dimension locate and/or [[TournamentArc kill off their former colleagues.]] Although it was eventually booted out of the canon after a lengthy period of DevelopmentHell and discontent from its own writer, the Empire Arc would've packed an intense plot and plenty of new, well-written characters in the span of over twenty acts.

* BaseBreakingCharacter: Quaza Keido. Originally conceived as a practical joke from the Empire Arc's creator [=DeadDang=], Quaza quickly underwent MemeticMutation within the game's community in an obnoxiously unplanned case of GoneHorriblyRight.[[note]]To sum it up: Quaza was created out of frustration towards Devil Beater's fanbase for obsessing over the game's secret characters. Quaza was initially made to be a secret character who didn't actually exist, but once rumors of his (fake) unlock method spread, dedicated fans of Devil Beater were going to insane lengths to unlock him. However, as the fandom's own obsession with unlocking Quaza became stronger and stronger, Quaza more or less became [[{{HeWhoFightsMonsters}} what he was originally created to parody.]][[/note]] As of Act [[spoiler:50,]] he's got an entire story arc dedicated to fleshing out the significance behind his last name.
* BrokenBase: The [[{{ArtistDisillusionment}} cancellation of the Empire Arc]] was considered by many to be the lowest point in Devil Beater's development history that caused the gradual decay of the game's once-thriving fanbase. After the arc's main writer [=DeadDang=] called off the entire collaboration between him and series creator drager980, many veterans of the Devil Beater fanbase joined [=DeadDang=] in his leave.

** To many players, the first and second [[BossRush D-Force fights]] aren't too difficult until D-Force Dong steps into the arena. Unlike any other character in the game--playable or not--Dong's attacks are reliant on ROBLOX's built-in physics engine. His attacks are specifically designed to disorient and fling the players around the map by dropping cubes on them.
** The fight against [[spoiler:Xenon Karambit]] in Act [[spoiler:40]] is considered by many to be one of the worst fights in the game. [[spoiler:Xenon]] has three phases during his fight, and his third phase is where most players draw the line. Most players usually end up cheesing the fight by pulling off a certain glitch using Cielo de la Asad, which defeats [[spoiler:Xenon]] by flinging him off the map.
