*Mid-August 2017 introduced the game's Grunt leader, [[BoisterousWeakling Yapyap THE DESTROYER]]. Everything about him is one big hilarious joke on 343's part.
**For starers, he's pretty much ''the'' LethalJokeCharacter of RTS's. His schtick is that he has access to "Cannon Fodder" Grunt squads, whose only advantage is that they only cost Population. He also has the most invincibility options, such as his Grunt Goblin being able to make nearby Grunt units briefly invincible, as well as his "Please Don't Shoot Me" Leader Power which ''stops all combat'' for a short time.
**Every time you spend a Leader Point, the sound is accompanied by Yapyap doing an EvilLaugh
**Along with everyone else's terse announcements, many of his announcement lines have him go on random self-glamorizing tangents
