| 3 | Adam Lutz (a.k.a., The Quarter Guy) is an American Website/YouTube Producer who makes {{Video Game}}s related [[TopTenList countdowns]], much similar to Creator/JoshScorcher or Creator/TheAutarch, but to keep things diverse, he does a mini series called 'Clash of Q', video game reviews, and post vlogs (called "My 25 Cents Worth") regularly of current events, updates on his projects, and Q&A. He even did a let's boss play for ''VideoGame/SuperCastlevaniaIV'' at one point, and took down six beasts in ''[[VideoGame/MonsterHunter3Tri Monster Hunter 3 Ultimate]]'' during Thanksgiving of 2013. The most recent ones is a series of streaming videos, in which he plays ''VideoGame/LeagueOfLegends'' with his friends, titled "League of LOL" |

| 5 | He posts his content upon his [[https://www.youtube.com/user/QuartrGuy YouTube channel]], updates regularly upon his [[http://twitter.com/QuartrGuy Twitter page]] and even has a [[http://thequarterguy.tumblr.com/ Tumblr page.]] |

| 128 | |
| 129 | !!Adam's Work Contains Elements Of |
| 130 | * ActingForTwo: At the beginning of the #1 segment of Top Ten Things I HATE In Video Games, he portrays two versions of himself talking to eachother. |
| 131 | * AbandonedCatchphrase: He abandoned his first signing in catchphrase[[note]]"Hey-o! Your friendly neighborhood Quarter Guy here!"[[/note]] for the ''My 25 Cents Worth'' videos since [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AlCIZ2LJxx0 the one that was released in March 14th 2017]], because he thought it was getting old. |
| 132 | ** "Aaaand Cue FacePalm!" was abandoned WAY earlier too... |
| 133 | * AdaptationalHeroism: [[Manga/JojosBizarreAdventure Dio Brando]] is usually an unabashedly really evil villain. In the hands of Quarter Guy, he becomes the guy who [[PayEvilUntoEvil drops steamrollers on other really evil/hateable characters]] for RunningGag. |
| 134 | * AllOfThem: The number one entry on "Top Ten Character Boss Themes" is every single boss theme from ''VideoGame/MetalGearRisingRevengeance'', with the title bar directly reading "ALL OF THEM" upon reveal. |
| 135 | * AuthorAppeal: A bit. For instance, in his "Top 30 favorite video game character", he makes it clear that the number 1 thing he likes in characters is CharacterDevelopment. |
| 136 | * BaitAndSwitch: In a segment of his Top Ten Most Wanted [=SSB4=] DLC Characters list, he starts off talking about VideoGame/{{Rayman}} and how he'll be great for Smash, [[spoiler: then segues to talking about [[VideoGame/CustomRobo Ray MK III]], the actual contender on the list.]] |
| 137 | * BerserkButton: Several. |
| 138 | ** Given that he's a huge fan of ''[[Franchise/MegaMan Mega Man]]'', the cancellation of ''Mega Man Legends 3'' is this by default. |
| 139 | ** ''[[VideoGame/MegaManX7 Mega Man X7.]]'' |
| 140 | *** By extension, three particular bosses from ''X7'': [[spoiler:Ride Boarski, Tornado Tonion and Flame Hyenard.]] |
| 141 | ** Anything to do with [[VideoGame/MegaManZero Dr. Weil]], [[spoiler:his most hated character in media.]] The mention of ''any'' character he especially hates could qualify, but this one ([[JustifiedTrope understandably]]) stands out the most. |
| 142 | ** Hazama/Yuuki Terumi. Almost every time he's mentioned, he either gets mad or Dio drops a steamroller on him. He made a cameo in Creator/TheGreenScorpion's countdown for video game cats because Terumi was mentioned, just to yell his name. Despite this, Quarter Guy did still place Terumi on his Top Ten Favorite Video Game Villains list. |
| 143 | * ByThePowerOfGrayskull: Parodied. By yelling "WONDER-EYES, RETRO!!", he can magically and instantly equip himself with a cosplay of a custom ''VideoGame/TheWonderful101'' costume. |
| 144 | * CasualCompetitiveConflict: [[InvokedTrope Invoked]]. QG is proud to say that he's a very casual gamer (and happily refers himself as 'filthy casual') and usually puts on notes that he'd rather people who would take account to competitive balances into opinions greatly (such as Tier Lists) to just not bother with his opinions. Ergo, he'd play games that are mostly gearing towards competitive plays (eg: ''VideoGame/BlazBlue'', ''VideoGame/LeagueOfLegends''), but does it casually, only doing characters he finds fun to play or geared towards his tastes. And that's also why he really sticks with ''VideoGame/ArcanaHeart''. |
| 145 | * CatchPhrase: Several. He begins every "My 25 Cents Worth" with the quote at the top, and every countdown with "it's game time!" At the end of the countdowns, he closes with "I'm the Quarter Guy, and until next time, the arcade is closed." |
| 146 | ** And he begins a [[VideoGame/LeagueOfLegends League of LOL]] game using Dunkmaster Darius by typing for All with: "Come on and SLAM! And welcome to the JAM!" |
| 147 | * ClusterFBomb: After the scene where [[spoiler:Redips transforms into Spider]] in ''VideoGame/MegaManXCommandMission'', the first words out of Adam's mouth are a rapid-fire "FUCK YOU!" |
| 148 | %%* Complete Monster: Adam explains in his Top 10 Video Game Villains video that any villain classified under this trope could become a "cliched mess" if done wrong and explains how [[VideoGame/MegaManBattleNetwork Dr. Regal]] avoids this trap. |
| 149 | * {{Determinator}}: He fought [[VideoGame/ArcanaHeart Parace L'Sia]] for over ''seven hours'' in a tribute to [[LetsPlay/TheOnlineWarrior Boss Rage]], only stopping because it was getting late and declaring that he'd resume the fight another day. [[http://www.twitch.tv/quartrguy/v/7358785 Behold.]] |
| 150 | * EnsembleCast: [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7YFcVRQ56EM Countdowns On Motorcycles]]. |
| 151 | ** Also, Top 50 Robot Masters featured 15 special guests who each contributed a segment. |
| 152 | * EpicFail: For the fan match of League of [=LOLs=], Adam picked Vladimir for Top Lane... and utterly fails, dominated by Wukong. So much that he made his own 'Vlad Fail Count' everytime he dies while laning. And his team ended up losing the match. [[note]]Well one might wonder if this happened because the opposing team banned his usual champs like Aatrox, Darius, Twisted Fate or Xin Zhao[[/note]] |
| 153 | * FourthWallMailSlot: His Q&A on "My 25 Cents Worth". |
| 154 | * GoMadFromTheRevelation: So the events of ''VideoGame/NoMoreHeroes2DesperateStruggle''... '''are based on a ''sidequest?!''''' This realization drove him bonkers on his Top 15 Most Hated Characters list. |
| 155 | --> (whimpering) ''Why, Suda, why...?!'' |
| 156 | ** He was also similarly driven mad with anything about Tornado Tonion. |
| 157 | ---> He's just an onion! ''He's just an onion!! '''HE'S JUST AN ONION!!!''''' (one technical difficulty later, QG is seen whimpering powerlessly) [[MadnessMantra He's just an onion... he's just an onion...]] |
| 158 | ** Hearing that VideoGame/BlazBlueCrossTagBattle has a ridiculously unfair DLC practice (locking half its roster as DLC), QG let out an unrestrained '''RAGE''' with [[Franchise/BlazBlue Black Onslaught]] playing. |
| 159 | * HurricaneOfPuns: Top Ten VG Cryokinetics. |
| 160 | * InterruptedSuicide: He does this to Flamicon when ''[[VideoGame/SonicRiders Sonic Free Riders]]'' shows up on the Top Twelve Friendship Killing Games. |
| 161 | --> '''Flamicon:''' (''sees a brief glimpse of Sonic Free Riders'') [[LittleNo No.]]\ |
| 162 | (''another pops up'')\ |
| 163 | '''Flamicon:''' (''loads up his Nerf Maverick'') ''No...''\ |
| 164 | (''and another'')\ |
| 165 | '''Flamicon:''' (''prepares to shoot himself'') '''[[BigNo NOOOOO-]]'''\ |
| 166 | (''Adam zaps the Maverick out of his hands'')\ |
| 167 | '''Flamicon:''' What did you do that for?!\ |
| 168 | '''Adam:''' I'm not letting you give up, man. We are getting through this.\ |
| 169 | '''Flamicon:''' (''groans'') Fine...\ |
| 170 | '''Adam:''' And perk up, buddy. ''[[ThisIsGonnaSuck We've entered Hell]].'' |
| 171 | * IveComeTooFar: QG and [=WiiDude83=] have a moment like this during their Top Ten Cheapest Fighting Game Bosses collab prior to the number 1 segment. |
| 172 | --> '''Adam''': I can't do this. I-I just can't.\ |
| 173 | '''[=WiiDude83=]''': Whadya mean, you CAN'T?\ |
| 174 | '''Adam''': I'm sorry, [=WiiDude83=], it's too painful-I-I'm already having flashbacks.\ |
| 175 | '''[=WiiDude83=]''': Come on. We've made it this far. We can't stop now.\ |
| 176 | '''Adam''': ''*sigh*'' Alright. |
| 177 | ** The two of them then proceed to rip into [[spoiler: [[SNKBoss Parace]] [[ThatOneBoss L'Sia]] from [[Videogame/ArcanaHeart Arcana Heart 3]].]] |
| 178 | * KubrickStare: Does this twice in Top Ten Disappointing Games. |
| 179 | * LamePunReaction: He usually makes puns at the end of most of his entries that sometimes qualify as this. He himself have admittedly made some bad ones, and lampshades this fact with a CatchPhrase. |
| 180 | --> '''Adam''': "''Annnnnnnd'' cue FacePalm!" |
| 181 | * LargeHam: Mainly during his negative Top Tens where he really rages when something greatly angers him. |
| 182 | ** Lampshaded by QG himself during his [[ColdOpen intro]] for Top Ten Monster Hunter 3 Ultimate Boss Monsters. |
| 183 | ---> '''Adam''': Did somebody order a '''LARGE HAM FOR THANKSGIVING?!''' |
| 184 | * MaliciousMisnaming |
| 185 | ** To show his dislike to the BigBad of ''VideoGame/NoMoreHeroes2DesperateStruggle'', Quarter Guy didn't refer to him as "Jasper Batt Jr." but instead ''"Bastard Twat Jr."'' |
| 186 | ** Also during his cameo in The Green Scorpion's Top 20 Sega Genesis Games list, Quarter Guy went on to refer [[VideoGame/MegamanZero Dr. Weil]] as "Dr. Satan Incarnate" |
| 187 | ** Referred to {{Website/Tumblr}}'s [[PoliticalCorrectnessIsEvil social justice warriors]] as social justice '''''wankers''''' in the first entry of Top 30 VG Characters. |
| 188 | * MeaningfulName: Adam admits to being a fan of old-school arcade games, inspiring his moniker. |
| 189 | ** His unscripted series, "My 25 Cents Worth", references his moniker. |
| 190 | * MotiveRant: Adam makes a rather amusing summary of [[VideoGame/TheWonderful101 Jergingha]]'s motivation for invading Earth. |
| 191 | -->'''Adam:''' In short: Jergingha- the head Jerk- brought his army of Jerks into the past... [[HumansAreBastards because the humans of the future were jerks]]. Wrap your head around that. |
| 192 | |
| 193 | * OhCrap: Not a video, but Adam's only response on Twitter to the return of the [[VideoGame/MonsterHunterWorld Rajang]] is a long, capslocked scream of rage and despair. |
| 194 | * OhMyGods: Sometimes, he likes to swap saying words like God or Jesus into an existing video game deity to avoid religious controversy. Such as [[VideoGame/KidIcarusUprising Palutena]] or [[Franchise/{{Pokemon}} Arceus]]. Example in his Top 10 Worst Mavericks video: "[[PunctuatedForEmphasis Sweet. Merciful. Palutena.]] ''This Maverick...!''" |
| 195 | * OOCIsSeriousBusiness: While Quarter Guy is known to crack jokes at times and generally a lighthearted guy, during the talk about his absolute favorite character, [[VideoGame/MegamanX Zero]], he pretty much shows how much he really really respects the guy by not making possible jokes that could have been made about him ('''[[{{Narm}} "WHATAMIFIGHTINGFOOOOORRRR!!?!?"]]''') or cursing at Dr. Weil. This is to show his utmost respect to the Maverick Hunter himself. |
| 196 | * OverusedRunningGag: He has openly acknowledged "cue facepalm" as this, having lampshaded the gag's fatigue twice. |
| 197 | * PsychoStrings: He used these in his Top Ten Worst Monster Hunter Monsters (featuring Regnilla) at the beginning of the Number 3 segment. |
| 198 | * PunctuatedForEmphasis: Does this before revealing the #1 worst Bowser battle in his double top 5. |
| 199 | --> '''Adam''': "And that fight comes from none other than [[spoiler:NEW! SUPER! MARIO! BROTHERS! 2!]]" |
| 200 | ** Also does this at the end of the segment. |
| 201 | ---> '''Adam''': "I! EXPECT! MORE! FROM! BOWSER!" |
| 202 | ** He also does this during his #2 segment from his Top Ten Things I HATE In Video Games. |
| 203 | ---> '''Adam''': "Seriously, EVERY! SINGLE! FREAKING! WORLD! HAS! AUTO! F***ING! SCROLLING!" |
| 204 | * RedOniBlueOni: Quarter Guy is often collaborating or partnering with fellow countdown maker Creator/TheGreenScorpion. When they do, and then you look at their works (especially their Vampire countdowns), this dynamic is formed: Quarter Guy is the Red Oni, driven with his personal feeling and emotion, hence why he picked Alucard, NOT Dracula, because he likes good-hearted heroes better (while Alucard also fits pretty good as one of the best vampires). Read GS' article to see his case as the Blue Oni. |
| 205 | * RunningGag: Often shows [[Manga/JoJosBizarreAdventure Dio Brando]] crushing characters he doesn't like with a steamroller. |
| 206 | ** Looped for maximum insanity at the end of his Top Fifteen Most HATED Video Game Characters list. |
| 207 | *** In his 'Top Fifteen Pokemon Gym Leaders' list, Ben (The Tree's Apprentice) started using his Running Gag, [[ItMakesSenseInContext when Dio, Adam's running gag, cuts it off]]. |
| 208 | ----> '''Ben''': "Wh- What was that?"\ |
| 209 | '''Adam''': "Running gag combo. [[LamePunReaction Would you like fries with that?]]" |
| 210 | ** "Cue facepalm" also qualifies as this, but it's become increasingly rare. |
| 211 | ** "The Dragonator" was this for his Top Ten Monster Hunter 3 Ultimate Boss Monsters. |
| 212 | ** In [[VideoGame/LeagueOfLegends League of LOL]], if he used Dunkmaster Darius and scored a kill with his ult, he'll insert Dunkmaster Darius' portrait at the center, and put the text and yell '''[[VideoGame/BarkleyShutUpAndJamGaiden "CHAOS DUNK!!!"]]'''. When using Lux, on the other hand, he instead uses '''[[Franchise/LyricalNanoha "STARLIGHT BREAKER!!!"]]''' |
| 213 | ** During his LP of ''VideoGame/MegaManXCommandMission'', he accentuates his boss-finisher Final Strikes with [[Manga/JojosBizarreAdventure "Ora!]] [[RapidFireFisticuffs ORAORAORAORAORAORAORA ORA!!"]] |
| 214 | * SanitySlippage: Invoked in Top 15 Worst Mavericks, where his increasing insanity and rage are crucial to the countdown's overarching humor. |
| 215 | * SayMyName: '''"[[VideoGame/BlazBlue TERUMIIIIII!!!!!]]"''' (cue the [[VideoGame/JojosBizarreAdventureHeritageForTheFuture Steamroller]] RunningGag) |
| 216 | * ScreamingAtSquick: He crawled backwards onto his couch during an episode of My 25 Cents' Worth when one of his viewers asked if he would read ''VideoGame/BlazBlue'' fanfiction at (the viewer's) advisory. |
| 217 | * SeriesMascot: Adam admits having a thing about them, thus he's easier to like them. Case in points: [[VideoGame/BlazBlue Ragna]], [[VideoGame/ArcanaHeart Heart]]. |
| 218 | * SigningOffCatchphrase: Starting in May 2019: "I'm the Quarter Guy, and until next time... the arcade is closed." |
| 219 | * SleazyPolitician: Adam hates these kind of characters (even to the point that [[VideoGame/ProfessorLayton Bill Hawks]] surpassed both Terumi and Relius as far as his hated characters go), and this is one reason he keeps up the good fight to ensure the likes of SOPA and PIPA won't come to pass. |
| 220 | * ShoutOut: Ziggzagged in Top Ten Underappreciated Gems. In his VideoGame/FistOfTheNorthStarKensRage segment, he says the game plays out like a VideoGame/DynastyWarriors game, then says that it some would take it as a button masher. This is a reference to [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tm8T6Ii_tm0#t=393 this little bit here]]. This quickly take a turn towards Main/TemptingFate when [[spoiler: [[Creator/JoshScorcher Josh]] stops the entire video at the near mention of that fact.]] |
| 221 | -->'''Josh''': ''*screen turns snowy then shows Josh giving a Main/DeathGlare, presumably towards Adam*''\ |
| 222 | '''Adam''': ''*raises arms*'' "I'm not one of those people!"\ |
| 223 | '''Josh''': "Good," ''*unsheathes saber*'' "Keep it that way."\ |
| 224 | '''Adam''': ''*{{loud gulp}}*'' "Yes, sir." |
| 225 | ** The aforementioned meltdown due to ''VideoGame/NoMoreHeroes2DesperateStruggle'' was actually based on Creator/JoshScorcher's meltdown on [[WesternAnimation/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagic Alicorn Twilight]]. [[OldShame He kinda thought it's not that well made]] and quickly made a 'My 25 Cents Worth' episode dedicated to apologize for his so-called 'half-assed' attempt. |
| 226 | ** The cancellation of Mega Man Legends 3 also prompts him to take cue on [[WebVideo/TheNostalgiaCritic Nostalgia Critic]]'s [[PrecisionFStrike EFF]] [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-DgFWOvgL90 YOU!!]] |
| 227 | ** Adding up [[Series/{{Dexter}} James Doakes' "Surprise, motherfucker!"]] to describe [[VideoGame/LeagueOfLegends Twisted Fate]]'s Ultimate's second use. |
| 228 | ** The discussion about Tornado Tonion saw use of the Nostalgia Critic's "Pumpkin?!" reaction clip. And TheStinger in his favorite Mavericks video, [[spoiler:he uses the "Boomer will... oh, um, we'll get ya another Boomer." on defeating Boomer Kuwager]] |
| 229 | ** [[WesternAnimation/SpiderMan1967 Quarter Guy, Quarter Guy... Friendly Neighborhood Quarter Guy...]] |
| 230 | ** In ''Top Boss Rage Videos'', he's once again interrupted... by fellow countdown maker Green Scorpion, and they proceed to play the [[Film/PulpFiction "ENGLISH, MOTHER***ER, DO YOU SPEAK IT"]] segment, with Adam taking the role of... Brett. |
| 231 | ** The entirety of his playthrough of both ''VideoGame/MegaManZX'' games have the parts named after various things related to ''Franchise/KamenRider''. |
| 232 | ** He quotes the memetic [[WesternAnimation/{{Encanto}} "We Don't Talk About Bruno"]] song in his Top Ten Worst Cases of First Game Syndrome List when revealing the Number 1 candidate: ''VideoGame/StreetFighterI''. |
| 233 | * SirSwearsALot: Is progressively moving towards this. But this is mostly seen in a negative countdown. |
| 234 | * SoBadItsGood: InUniverse. Actual opinion of his about the [[VideoGame/MegamanX4 "WHATAMIFIGHTINGFOOOOOOOORRRR!?!?!?"]] scene, even if it involved his absolute favorite, Zero, and his favorite installment of the X series, regardless of how others rank the game's voice acting as really bad (and as noted in his Top 10 Megaman games, he'll ''gladly'' join in poking fun on how 'bad' it is). |
| 235 | * {{Spoiler}}: As of ''Top Ten Worst Mega Man Zero Bosses'', QG tends to omit mention of entries later on his lists by use of [[Manga/JojosBizarreAdventure King Crimson]] skipping ahead. |
| 236 | * SugarWiki/SuperlativeDubbing: InUniverse. Also has some of this opinion flat out stated. While he does appreciate some Japanese voices, such as when it comes to ''Manga/JoJosBizarreAdventure'', he has some series that he prefers on dub, such as ''VideoGame/BlazBlue''. He constantly cites that he ''loves'' Creator/PatrickSeitz' performance as Ragna the Bloodedge better, in spite his Japanese voice being provided by Creator/TomokazuSugita (who actually did [[Manga/JojosBizarreAdventure Joseph Joestar]], who Adam also immensely enjoyed in Japanese) |
| 237 | * TakeThat: He nearly put the CEO of Konami as the worst boss in Castlevania due to the whole Konami debacle. He just backpedalled because it's against the rules: Entries must be bosses in Castlevania. |
| 238 | * TemptingFate: After being driven mad by Tornado Tonion, Quarter Guy claims that he's now cool and ready for just about anything. Next in line is ''Flame Hyenard'', upon which [[ScrewThisImOuttaHere he tries to]] {{ragequit}} [[ThisIsGonnaSuck the countdown, to no avail]]. |
| 239 | * TopTenList: This is the thing that made him popular to being with. |
| 240 | * WhosOnFirst: The ''Top Twenty Mario Kart Tracks'' list does a variant when it talks about Yoshi's Island. |
| 241 | -->'''WebVideo/BlackMageBenjamin''': So tell me again, what's the name of the guy who came in third place?\ |
| 242 | '''Adam''': What's the name of the guy who came in second place!\ |
| 243 | '''Benjamin''': I'm not asking you who came in second!\ |
| 244 | '''Adam''': Who came in first!\ |
| 245 | '''Benjamin''': I don't know!!\ |
| 246 | '''Adam''': '''THIRD PLACE!''' |
| 247 | * YouMonster: He considers [[VideoGame/MegamanZero Dr. Weil]] to be worse than [[{{Satan}} the devil himself]]. |
| 248 | ---- |
