Go To

Larzuk will actually build the hot-air balloons and cannons in Act V.
The Barbarian's Leap/Leap Attack will become a running gag.
  • Especially when he's leaping through ceilings and iron bars in the Monestary Jail and through the sand in the Maggot Lair.
    • It's shaping up to be this in "Sunday, Bloody Sunday" when he crashes through the cathedral's stain glass window.
    • It's the end of act 3 and this is as confirmed as this type of guess can get.
Act II will jokingly end with a Jump Cut to all seven heroes laying dead and frozen in Tal Rasha's Tomb
  • It won't be the end of the series, of course, just a jab at how you'll be dead from Duriel the split second you enter the tomb to confront him. Maybe a more comedic version of them frozen in cubes with various expressions of Oh, Crap!.
    • Or it could just be a prelude to a moment of awesome: The Paladin saved himself with either a Holy Fire or Resist Ice aura, taps Duriel so he'll turn around, then the Paladin narrows his eyes and activates a Concentration aura and Duriel gets an Oh, Crap! expression.
    • The Stinger after the title card could have the heroes, naked, running to the town portals to get their gear back while Lysander catches a glimpse of them running by and perhaps gets Distracted by the Sexy, blowing himself up with one of the potions he was handling or brewing.
    • All of the above was jossed. Duriel is defeated with the help of an Enchantress.
Potential gags for Izual.
  • One idea involves Xul doing something else while his skeletons and golem surround Izual and beat him up.
  • Izual will do his speech, and as usual get ignored.
  • Alternatively, he will get mugged for the extra skill points
  • A long search through the plains of despair to find him, with appropriate gag(s).
  • Sorceress Static field may get used.
    • And turns out none of these, apart from Izual getting ignored.
Moreina, Jazreth, and Aidan (the Rogue, Sorceror, and Warrior in D1) live normal lives in the Diablol universe. Others are corrupted instead
  • As normal as you can live as an adventurer in demon and monster filled Sanctuary, anyway. The others who fill their Diablo 2 roles are:
    • Obviously, Duping Warrior becomes Diablo's new host. A strong body with strong equipment, and questionable morality, he makes the perfect corruptable and powerful host for the Lord of Terror.
    • The level 50 Apocalypse sorcerer becomes the summoner. Very powerful at killing things from a distance, but forgot how to defend himself.
    • The PVP rogue becomes blood raven. Running around and dodging things and being uncatchable is her known MO.
Potential Act V gags.
  • The Defiler enemies, with their Face Full of Alien Wing-Wong ability, will give other enemies a French kiss with appropriately horrified expressions from the heroes and demons alike.
    • Jossed. Though one does annoyingly float away from a Barbarian chasing after it with Whirlwind.
  • Demon Imps constantly teleporting away from melee characters or, even more annoying, walking up to them and then walking away when they take a swing.
    • Jossed. Their main threat was their barrage of fireballs that kills the Druid's Heart of the Wolverine and pops Cassia's Decoy.
  • A Demon Imp will teleport on top of a Crush Beast, only for the latter to start moving the wrong way.
  • Facing the Ancients will have a You Must Be This Tall to Ride joke, except it's the Level 20 minimum required to complete the quest.
  • On the subject of the Ancients, they'll be on the verge of beating the last one only for a Town Portal to open and reset the fight.
    • Confirmed. The Paladin opens a Town Portal to get more potions.
  • A player will grab an Experience Shrine buff only to immediately have a Succubus curse them and override the effect.
    • Jossed. Though a boss group does appear after opening an Evil Urn.
Potential Skill Gags.
  • Valkyrie: Cassia uses one to compliment her Desert Mercenary as they slowly walk after enemies that are fleeing.
    • The Valkyrie does appear, only as a distraction as Cassia runs away from Pandemonium Diablo.
  • Death Sentry: Xul tries to use Corpse Explosion against a slain enemy, only for what we assumed to be a Lightning Sentry from the Assassin turns out to be a Death Sentry that explodes it.
  • Shadow Master: A Kicksin is fighting an enemy to build up charges for finisher skills, only for her Shadow Master to use Mind Blast and make the enemy unable to be attacked. Alternatively, the Shadow Master may randomly zip off with Dragon Flight to attack an off-screen group of enemies.

How the series will segue from the downer Diablo Immoral episode to DiabLol III
  • The whole DiabLol III is a Dying Dream of the heroes after Immoral beats the crap out of them.
    • Jossed. The episode turns out to be a side-episode, thus not counted as actual main episode. The heroes are all fine and dandy in the actual 50th episode.

Potential "How To [Class]" Ideas
  • "How To Amazon"
    • A Strafezon equips a bow with knockback, resulting in a scene of enemies approaching only for her to cast Strafe and knock them all back.
    • An Amazon equipped with the "Peace" Runeword continuously resummoning the Valkyrie in different colors as she Strafes a group of enemies.
    • A Spearzon with a Desert Merc summons a Valkyrie for a triple-spear combo.
  • "How To Druid"
    • A Fury Werewolf build where he flails his paws about and smashes aside waves of enemies.
    • A Druid using Hurricane and just casually running circles around enemies until they die.
    • A Rabies Werewolf build where he bites one enemy and the gag is they start social distancing and masking, preferably with the Poison Immune skeletons in later difficulties.
  • "How To Necro"
    • The episode could start with a Necromancer successfully trading for a Tyreal's Might, thanks the other player and then proceeds to turn it into an Iron Golem.
  • "How to Pally"
    • Aside from Smitedins and Hammerdins, there could also be moments like the Paladin using Vigor to move about faster, using Conviction to "break" the immunities on Hell difficulty monsters, etc.
    • The Zealot build is represented, complete with the massive flaming Fanaticism aura.
