* {{Catchphrase}}: "Howdy folks", "Take care (on that battlefield) and I'll catch you next time", "To the salt mines with him/her!"," Didn't see that one coming, did you, Rommel?", "If it's stupid and it works, it's not stupid", "Surprise buttsex! (Best kind of buttsex!)" (on one player getting behind another and unloading shells into/ramming their generally lesser armoured back) often followed by "It is much better to give than to receive" or some variation thereof, "Broadside on to a battleship? [[Memes/TheSimpsons That's a paddlin'.]]", "[[Memes/{{Pokemon}} A wild [x] appears!]]", "Once it leaves the tube, Mr Torpedo is not your, or anyone else's, friend", "Just a Gneisenau captain doing Gneisenau things", "TOG is not proud" and "Om nom nom nom nom" (usage reserved for the TOG II) and more.

* SelfDeprecation: One of Jingles most common forms of humor. He often describes his skills at playing the games he covers as being those of a "dirty, scrub-lord, noob". On his ''VideoGame/XCOM2'' playthrough, he cheerfully admits that he's gotten a number of "Flawless" Mission results, despite making every textbook mistake he possibly could through sheer dumb luck. And throughout his own replays, he will mention he knows someone in the comment section of his videos is going to reply to some of the things he's done with "Jingles, you noob!" Hence his idea of a "Jingles Moment".

* TheUnpronounceable: The reason why there are so many replay videos featuring "Dave" as the star. Providing a pronunciation guide or requesting to be called an alternative name when one submits the replay only just guarantees the player will be called "Dave".

** The replay episode "[[https://youtu.be/0WkQYkzGjYU?si=mBB4X5jD1Y_eZfNs&t=492 World of Tanks - Personal Best]]" has the 2nd replay of the video featuring "Dave" in the Tier X AMX 13 105 Light Tank on the Prokhorovka map. "Dave" of course goes to spot from the famous bush used for passive scouting only to immediately get spotted by the opposing team's Manticore and getting immediately targeted by half of the enemy team provoking this reaction from "Dave". Things end up going hilariously wrong for "Dave".
-->'''"Dave":''' ''(with 24HP remaining, and 7 enemy tanks starting to push up the road near the tiny bush he's hiding his tank in)'' "im a dead man. remember me."

Up To Eleven is no longer a trope


** In 2021, Jingles began a series of videos titled [[ShoutOut "A Game of Throws"]] for battles in which an entire team achieves an Epic Fail by throwing away decisive advantages and losing a battle that should be impossible to lose, or [[UpToEleven both teams are seemingly competing over who can screw up worse and throw the game]]. Thanks to [[Series/GameOfThrones the origin of the title]], he's produced two "seasons" of ''World of Warships'' episodes, along with individual ''World of Tanks'' and ''War Thunder'' editions.
