* E3 2018 revealed a new faction, the Wu Lin, warriors from China who are fighting to earn their place in the new Dynasty. You could say they are "[[VideoGame/DynastyWarriors Dynasty]] [[IncrediblyLamePun Warriors]]".

to:

* Many of the "Hero Fest" executions have a fairly comedic bent to them:
** Jiang Jun's ''Close Call'' execution begins with him knocking his opponent over and swinging his guandao, narrowly avoiding his victim's nether regions, causing both Jiang Jun and his victim to share a quick laugh before Jiang Jun stabs them to finish them off properly.
** Highlander's ''High Feigner'' execution is a pastiche of his prior ''High Sender'' execution where he prepares to caber toss his claymore, then ''feints his execution'' before ramming the thing right into his curious victim's stomach, who humorously gestures to Highlander as if asking ''"Why didn't you throw it?"'' as they fall over.
** Shugoki's first Hero Fest execution ''Wrecking Ball'' is fat jokes at his opponent's expense taken to the logical extreme. He swings his kanabo in such an unwieldly manner that he spins himself around and falls over, ''right on top of his victim'', killing them instantly. What really sells it is Shugoki awkwardly getting up and looking around hoping nobody saw what just happened.


Added DiffLines:

* Ledging other players is always an endless source of comedy, thanks in no small part to the screaming of the heroes as they plummet to their doom. Lawbringer deserves special mention because of how [[DullSurprise unenthusiastically]] he screams when he falls off a ledge.


Added DiffLines:

* Dying mid-air or splattering on the ground from a failed plunging attack will cause you to crater in the ''[[Franchise/DragonBall Yamcha]]'' ''[[MemeticMutation pose.]]''
* Certain characters, namely Nobushi and Shinobi feature jumping kicks as part of their moveset. What becomes funny is if they're killed mid-jump kick, causing them to unflatteringly flop to the ground if the killing blow wasn't a heavy attack.

** During Runa's mission to scout ahead of the main Viking force, she needs to find a route to her destination. She considers interrogating some Dawn Empire troops. After slaughtering a few of them, she advances on one poor [[{{Mooks}} Mook]] before the screen fades to black. When we come back, Stigandr has returned to find her standing over the unfortunate soldier's corpse.

*** This becomes even funnier after learning the entire story is a FramingDevice, and that Stigandr had to tell Ayu and Holden about how his friend tortured a guy for information, without actually being able to understand what he was saying.

** At the end of latter scene, you can almost imagine Ayu's reaction beneath that mask when [[spoiler:an elephant]] burst out of the gate instead of enemy soldiers. She actually turns around to watch it run off, in a subdued DoubleTake.
* After finding the corpse of [[spoiler:Kizan]] while looking for Ayu, the Orochi sarcastically asks if he knew where Ayu was.
** Later, the Orochi casually remarks about how many [[spoiler:dead Daimyo]] are lying around to Ayu, whose casual response can be rather funny given that she's [[ImStandingRightHere in front of]] [[spoiler:the soldiers who formerly served said Daimyo]].

* The Pirate's "Pirate's Sanction" execution begins with the Pirate simply trying to execute their victim on the spot with their pistol... only for it to jam to the Pirate's exasperation, at which point they simply PistolWhip their victim into submission so they can stab them.



* The new Year Five Executions just reek of this: both involve your opponent [[AintTooProudToBeg begging you to spare them]], then pulling out either a bagpipe or fiddle and starting to play it. Your character gets annoyed by the music and either knocks them over and [[FinishingStomp stomps on their opponent and the bagpipes]] or knocks the fiddle aside and [[InstrumentOfMurder uses the bow to saw through their opponent's neck]].

* While the four new executions released at the end of Year Four's first season are mostly respectful, the Viking execution involves the Viking hero sharing a rousing drink with his foe while jaunty tavern music plays. Then the Viking's opponent collapses [[RealityEnsues because of their gaping chest wound]], [[LettingTheAirOutOfTheBand the music dies away]], and the Viking shrugs and tosses away their drinking horn.
