    open/close all folders 

    Season 1 
  • The Cliff 6:
    • The Ice and Fire magicians finally fight to the death, but not before blasting some impatient stickmen who were waiting for them for over a year.
    • A stickman carrying a BFG 9001 has his subtitle questioning if he's Compensating for Something, to which he replies that he admittedly has a small stick.
    • In a cheeky reference to You Tube guidelines changing to match COPPA regulations, a color magician changes the landscape to rainbow colors only for a "COPPA" magician to undo the changes, prompting the color magician to blow himself up in distress.
    • An explosion magician appears and uses his magic for the first time. Instead of exploding others, he blows himself up.
    • A force magician gets caught by a myth magician but before they fight they stop to watch a bystander slipping on ice in a way that makes him bounce on the spot for several seconds.
    • Two stickmen blinded by sunglasses run into each other and knock each others shades off. They decide to celebrate by leaving to try on more sunglasses.
    • A stickman who defeats others by telling jokes ends up being told one by a Gravity magician, to which they ask if they're a joke. One Blunt "Yes" later, and they're sent flying before crashing down on another stickman who was defending himself from the gravity magician with an Uno Reverse card.

    Season 2 
  • A group of stick figures try to form a bridge over a cliff but get killed by their materials via Seesaw Catapult, with one of them falling into what he thought was a really shiny bridge but was really a lightsaber.
  • The Cliff 7 Part 1:
    • A stick-woman with a deck of cards calls out to a crowd of 20 magicians. They get intimidated when she pulls a x2 bravery card, compliment her when the second card makes her smell three times better, decide to charge at her when she gains +50% swearing skills to stop her from demonetizing the video, before getting killed when she finally gets a win card that causes the soul container to fill significantly.
    • A size-changing magician makes the lightsaber from the last episode bigger as well as crush someone with their own sunglasses for trying to flirt with her. A size changer then shows up to pick both up for himself and feels really great about it.
    • Lolph orders the rest of the magicians to leave the Cliff alone with a "no buts" response, while a stickman behind Lolph falls to his death while thinking about his butt being acceptable compared to Lolph's butt.
  • Before Lolph and The One fight again, they're briefly cut off by the Chrono magician. She insists that The One is innocent and that Lolph shouldn't fight him, which he finds ridiculous enough to respond with "Right, and I'm Santa Claus."
    • The fact that The One doesn't try to kill the Chrono magician on the spot suggests that he's also shocked that anyone would sympathize with him directly.
  • When Rolph is revived, his reaction to seeing the Creator in person is treated as Faux Horrific due to him being human rather than a stick figure.

    Season 3 
  • While Lolph and Rolph go off on their vacation, the Creator appears from behind the mountains to personally announce Justice's ascension as an Overseer. The stick figures who witness this react in suprisingly varied ways, with one Faux Horrific looking in horror at the Creator's face, while another seemed hopeful that Justice can do better than "the other idiots," before being retorted by someone else that said idiots saved their lives.
  • In episode 25.5, the Creator calls Justice over to explain the new Stat-O-Vision system that describes the Stickworld. A Running Gag involving chairs occurs as they talk about the various forms of magic and how they affect stick figures:
    • They both get a chair to sit down, but Zeruel's chair gets broken and replaced with a small stool
    • Justice asks for a new chair after her unreasonably tall one falls over. Except the bottom legs are held up by a bunch of regular sized stick figures, some of whom get crushed by the weight.
    • Zeruel's stool breaks too, leaving him to sit on the floor for a while.
    • Zeruel gets a new chair and table for him and Justice to eat at, while Justice eats not only her food but the plate and cup.
    • Once Justice goes back, she starts to miss her blue chair, but is happy when it gets teleported behind her.
  • Lolph and Rolph travel through a forest and into a mansion to face the Skull Demon. The monster brags about how his unlimited mana would obliterate the two, only to be horrified when they used their Overseer powers to just send the attacks back at him and instantly kill him. To put salt in the wound, Lolph even calls the Skull Demon's bragging boring and asks to skip to the fight.
  • After X knocks the Scientist into his nanobots, Dave asks Dr. LOL if he's working with the Scientist, with Dr. LOL responding with the Wall of Blather below.
    Dr. LOL: ...You can SEE that I'M TRAPPED INSIDE THIS CAGE, RIGHT?!? You see these metal bars with too little space between them? They are what makes this cage a cage, and the fact that I am on THIS side of them while YOU are NOT means that I am trapped inside this cage while YOU are NOT. You DO realize that I am NOT here because I WANT to right?!? You stupid, stupid... imbecile! Let me out THIS INSTANT!!! I have THINGS to do! Like... rebuilding AND conquering a castle! If you seriously think that you can keep me in here, you are... Right. Let me out, NOW! Stupid, stupid, STUPID!!! That woman and child have been waiting for me to fix their castle for OVER a YEAR!!! LET! ME! OUT!!! NOW!!!
    Dave: I'm not sure, but... I think he wants us to let him out?
  • On their way to find the Overseers to warn them about the aliens, Mark and his friends are briefly stopped by a magician who claims that she'll crush them with a meteor. Said meteor is shown growing into a massive white fireball... before lightly bouncing off her head as a harmless pebble. They move past her without another word, clearly disappointed by the beginner meteor magician.
  • While Zeruel was busy defending himself from several legend magicians working for the earthbending magician, two of the legend magicians were distracting Albus by explaining how long the interrogation was going. Of course one of them couldn't help but crack a joke at his partner's expense.
    Albus: Maybe... just a quick peek, so I can see that everything is OK?
    Female legend: Sure! You're the boss, boss! But do please remember that you are too big to even fit down there.
    Albus: Oh right...
    Male legend: That's What She Said
    Female legend: [Punches the other legend] Will you STOP those NASTY jokes?!?
    Male legend: Owwwww... The fonts size of that joke was so small that no one heard it anyway...
    Albus: ...?

    Obstacle Courses 
  • After the stick figures get even with the Troll Master for trolling them, Pink declares that the other four are still more annoying than Troll Master since they smelt bad. Turns out he wasn't joking; they really haven't cleaned themselves in a while.
  • A poll was made with 89% of voters having the bright idea of pitting the stick figures against all four Serpents from Season 1. It goes as well as you would expect, and not even Pink was happy about it.
  • Obstacle course #12:
    • Pink initially tries to jump over Aqua, only for her to use her ability to get ahead and punch him back before yelling at him not to do it again, leaving him rather confused as to what she just did.
    • Then, Pink accidentally goes through a different hole that allowed him to bypass the laser-monster. Sky, whom he had been calling a cheater for using Teleport Spam, gets the opportunity to call him the cheater for once.
  • The main cast find a well leading to another dungeon, where the gimmick is that each power up alters their body in a random manner. Purple's head grew too big for him to hold up, causing it to fall on some spikes. Pink decides he wants to smash the others with a giant head, but ends up with the rest of his body growing to the point that he's killed by the spikes on the ceiling. Blue turns into an ball that bounces uncontrollably, while Green melts into a liquid snake that is killed by the boss. Black gets Extendable Limbs, which is the only transformation practically enough for him to win the dungeon.
  • Red and Yellow's side arc involves them doing some of the previous obstacle courses as a means of catching up to the other participants. As it turns out though, this usually leads to them racing to the end without taking their time to think. In some cases, both of them die and blame each other if they have to start over.
    • They reach the nineteenth course only to find Pink still asleep after 2 weeks. They're busy arguing about what to do with him when he sneaks around and kills them both, before running off to find the others himself.
    • They finally meet the rest of the cast in the 20th course, who get confused when Red pushes Yellow aside to be in front. They debate how the two are related to each other, before Ruby suggests something that they all agree with.
    Green: They're fighting each other?
    Purple: They must be mortal enemies?
    Blue: Or deadly rivals?
    Ruby: Or maybe they're just siblings?
  • The seventeenth obstacle course had the participants go through several columns with blocks moving up and down, which all seven survived, causing Pink to complain that it was too easy. Cue the Creator causing the hazards to move twice as fast, which only Purple, Brown and Cyan are fast enough to get through without getting crushed.
  • Blue's Extra Difficult Castle:
    • Red and Yellow get a room designed to force them to work together based on buttons that turn switch blocks on or off. Yellow decides he's not going to let Red get ahead of him, which led to the room blowing up when they press the buttons too many times.
    • A brief gag has Tiny shove a regular-sized key into a lock which blows up. Later he finds a giant key, and carefully brings it to its lock, causing it to also explode. This proves absurd enough that the others decide to ignore it.
    • A portion has Sky demonstrate the immunity to Anti-Magic that she acquired. Both Pink and Violet yell that this is cheating, which finally lets the others figure out that Pink was Violet's brother.
