* BerserkButton: Yah-Shee reacts to Rarity the way Wizrd reacted to Michelangelo. Arrell reacts better compared to Boomstick, though.

* CompositeCharacter: In the Mane 6 Free-For-All, Pinkie gets this by adding [[SerialKiller Pinkamena]] as a SuperpoweredEvilSide for the pink pony, this leads to an even more brutal death for Twilight compared to their solo fight but doesn't help her against Fluttershy's Stare.


Added DiffLines:

* EatenAlive: How Pinkie dies in the Mane 6 Free-For-All, courtesy of Fluttershy pinning her in place with The Stare and sic'ing the animals of the forest the Mane 6 were fighting in on her, [[StrippedToTheBone reducing her to a skeleton]].


Added DiffLines:

* TheScrappy: Rarity is this for Yah-Shee, the latter ends up going on a rant about her during her analysis to the point that Arrell has to knock him out just to get him to stop, and no points for guessing who dies first in the Mane 6 Free-For-All as a result.

* AlternateEnding: The Cutie Mark Crusaders Free-for-All was originally going to end with [[spoiler: Scootaloo throwing Apple Bloom off the cliff]][[note]]In the actual battle, the roles were reversed[[/note]]. It was changed to something the author felt was more original, with [[spoiler: Scootaloo instead strangling Apple Bloom with her own hair ribbon]].
** An odd example with Nyx VS Fluffle Puff; one ending was released, with Nyx [[spoiler: hugging Fluffle Puff, who reacts by happily licking her, and then the two of them go off to have fun]]. While the author insists that this is what would actually happen, he ''is'' making a second ending with [[spoiler: the two of them actually battling]] so people don't complain.

# Mane Six Free-for-All (Twilight Sparkle, Applejack, Pinkie Pie, Rarity, Rainbow Dash, Fluttershy). [[labelnote:Result]]Fluttershy wins. Rarity died first due to being the least combat-oriented overall. Next was Applejack, who didn't have anything special except raw physical strength. Twilight died next for similar reasons to the previous fight, as well as having poor physical strength. Pinkie was easy to dispatch when pinned down, which Rainbow could successfully do. Fluttershy defeated Rainbow Dash by staying out of the battle until this point and utilizing her ability to command animals.[[/labelnote]]

* SlidingScaleOfVisualsVersusDialogue: Compared to ''{{Death Battle}}'', this one focuses more on dialogue. Obviously, since it's a written story rather than an animated show, but it also counts thanks to the fanfic taking more time to show the actual story rather than just being loads of fight scenes.

The two hosts are Yah-Shee and Arrell, whom the author has described as just being Wizard and Boomstick [[note]] the hosts of the original ''Death Battle''[[/note]] as ponies and with the author's own humor mixed in. Over time, the story has become less about just the battles, and been giving more focus to actual...well, story.

Added DiffLines:

Sometime after Battle 17 went up, the story was marked as "Complete", and an edit to the author's notes of the final battle stated the story was definitely done, and that any further updates "wouldn't be consistent enough to be worth changing the story status to Incomplete or even On Hiatus". As such, the story is naturally considered to be over.

* ShoutOut: ''Blackjack VS Littlepip'' is very similar to ''Deadpool VS Deathstroke'' from the original ''Death Battle''. Both are battles between similar characters, one of whom has inspiration from the other[[labelnote:*]]Deadpool was outright based off of Deathstroke, while Blackjack came about from being a spinoff of Littlepip's story with similar beginning characteristics[[/labelnote]]; both of them use a variety of weaponry, especially guns, in the battle; the battle takes place in a city[[labelnote:*]]though it's a destroyed and abandoned one for Blackjack and Littlepip[[/labelnote]] that they constantly run around; both have banter with one another during the battle; and both characters have a RedOniBlueOni dynamic (Deadpool and Blackjack are red, while Deathstroke and Littlepip are blue) even though the Blue Oni is the one that initiates conflict. [[spoiler: Also, the Blue Oni is the one that loses in both cases.]] It would qualify for a non-character {{Expy}} if not for the fact that [[WordOfGod the author has commented on this being entirely unintentional]].
