** The ''Splatoon'' advertisement [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Hu1i1SkO-H0 parody]].

*** It comes to a head in the second-last segment of Tear's campaign playthrough, where Prâk appears as the captain of the Ered Glamhoth garrison, maskless and SuddenlyVoiced. However, due to the battle taking place in a unique location that cannot be revisited, Tear is able to [[KilledOffForReal finally kill him for good]].

* SuddenlyVoiced: Prâk "Bane" Jaws, Tear's most memorable ArchEnemy from ''Middle Earth: Shadow of Mordor'', who previously only grunted, giggled and screamed, suddenly gained the ability to speak (and lost his mask as well) during the [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nr4JrRMAPw8&t=5m50s Lord of Mordor]] story mission.

** [[VideoGame/MiddleEarthShadowOfMordor Prâk "Bane" Jaws]] communicates only in [[GigglingVillain giggles]] and [[ScreamingWarrior deranged howls]], [[spoiler: until his final appearance, where he is SuddenlyVoiced]].

-->'''Tear:''' ''(after Bumbo steals some coins) -Why do I ever take you? All you do is take the piss!?!

** "Channel Highlights" was a very old series which only featured two episodes, but was reincarnated years later as a "Best off".

* {{Machinima}}: Tear used have a Machinima series running a few years ago called BANGBANG.

* DarthWiki/MostAnnoyingSound: InUniverse, during an ''Isaac'' mod run, he comments on how he's come to despise Mom's laughter whenever one of [[WallMaster her hands]] shows up.
-->'''Tear:''' I'm just so sick and tired of hearing that cackle. It's the equivalent of ''LiveActionTV/TheBigBangTheory'' LaughTrack, it fucking '''grates my soul'''!

''Brett Tear'', also known as [[https://www.youtube.com/user/TearofGrace Tear of Grace]] is a British Website/YouTube gamer who specializes in heavily edited video game [[LetsPlay playthroughs]] and montages. He started his channel back in 2011 and has since evolved from doing simple ''VideoGame/{{Halo Reach}}'', ''VideoGame/{{Halo 4}}'' and ''VideoGame/{{Minecraft}}'' {{troll}}ing videos to increasingly more edited playthroughs and montages of games such as ''VideoGame/GrandTheftAutoV'', ''VideoGame/DarkSouls2'', ''VideoGame/MiddleEarthShadowOfMordor'', ''VideoGame/DarkSouls'', ''VideoGame/{{Bloodborne}}'', ''VideoGame/TheBindingOfIsaac'' (both ''Rebirth'' and ''Afterbirth''), ''VideoGame/DarkSouls3'', ''VideoGame/SuperMarioMaker'', and more.

Tear also supports various other smaller {{YouTube}}rs who he enjoys watching and frequently promotes them at the end of his videos.

** He first started to add background music in February 2013 with a video titled "How to: Win Youtube & Get all the Monies".

** After June 2016, due to the amount of time it took him to edit his video (which results in frequent upload schedule problems), Tear hired three other editors to help him out: "[=NipsOfGrace=]" (Jack Linford), "[=DaveOfGrace=]" (David Clarke) and "[=HolesOfGrace=]" (Luke Holesworth) (in 2017, after the YouTube add revenue problem, Tear had to let Jack Linford go).

* TheCameo: Tear's channel logo made a cameo appearance in the WebAnimation/EddsWorld episode [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6ux0ERfzDSU The End (Part 1)]], in a scene where a character was looking at a YouTube video. His channel description read: [[VideoGame/TheBindingOfIsaac The Binding of Indie]], [[CatchPhrase Send Help]].

* {{He Who Must Not Be Seen}}/{{The Faceless}}: He used to be one for more than four years of his YouTube career during which he never showed his face, but had occasionally given clues to how he looked like in real life, stating that he had a shaved head, a beard and wore glasses. He also usually modeled his in-game characters after him. On March the 30th, 2016, Tear had officially revealed his face on Twitter, and then also edited the photo into one of his videos.

* NoDialogueEpisode: Tear made two ''Halo: Reach'' trolling videos early on during his YouTube career which contained no dialogue whatsoever, only captions.

-->'''Tear''': It's a Nekker! You're about to be facing the God damn Geralt guillotine...are there more of these Nekkers, aren't there? If I mispronounce that just a little bit, it's the end of my YouTube career, just so you know.

* OohMeAccentsSlipping: Tear started his YouTube career with a video where he put on a FakeAmerican accent, however it was very obvious that he had problems holding it.

-->'''Tear''': It's not a circle, that's my ignorance of shapes, you see I never made it out of school, you see me being a YouTube boy, it's making the God damn clickbait and the hibbidy hibbidy God damn [[PungeonMaster pun]] jokes. [[WritersCannotDoMath I don't know what math is]], you know it's a miracle I pay my bills, I just throw into my credit card system and hopefully the direct debit gets paid and then the lights stay on...[[DontExplainTheJoke the joke is that I'm stupid]], clearly for thinking that fucking [[OverlyLongGag long winded bullshit]] would get a laugh at the end!

!!'''{{Tear of Grace}}''' provides examples of the following tropes:

* TryingToCatchMeFightingDirty:
** While he doesn't normally enjoy doing this, he has occasionally played ''Dark Souls 2'' [[PlayerVersusPlayer PvP]] with builds that he considers overpowered and unbalanced, mostly when it involved a build revolving around a particular [[{{Cosplay}} singleplayer character]].
** In ''Dark Souls 3'' [[PlayerVersusPlayer PvP]] he also [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E14qOA8Rx5E played around]] with a [[{{Cosplay}} Darkwraith build]] with the Dark Sword, one of the cheapest weapons in the game...[[CheatersNeverProsper and he still managed to lose]].
** In ''Overwatch'' he [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RHbV8ikXz20 played around]] with Mei and frequently used her [[StoneWall Cryo-Freeze ability]], while [[HypocriticalHumor calling it cheap]] when other people used it on him.

* MeanCharacterNiceActor: During his first Q&A video, it was revealed that he only plays as a {{troll}} in games when he's recording.

* ''Besiege''

* ''Dream''

* ''Fingered''

* ''Oblitus''

* ''Raft''

** In ''Besiege'', Tear also used to play around with creations which were sent by his viewers.

** In ''[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gFdMVlfHk_U Besiege]]'', Tear builds a vehicle resembling a "[[VisualInnuendo cock and balls]]". Later on he remarks:

** For [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YBOWsYyv_1U 2015]], Tear released a video titled "[[SchmuckBait THE BINDING OF ISAAC AFTERBIRTH BONANZA]]", which had no intro and a thumbnail which consisted of just one big smiling Isaac face. A few seconds into the video, Tear reveales that this is actually a "Best of".

* AprilFoolsDay: For [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YBOWsYyv_1U 2015]], Tear released a video titled "[[SchmuckBait THE BINDING OF ISAAC AFTERBIRTH BONANZA]]", which had no intro and a thumbnail which consisted of just one big smiling Isaac face. A few seconds into the video, Tear reveales that this is actually a "Best of".

** Then there's Ûkrom the Machine, formerly Ûkrom Blood-Storm. The Nemesis brought over with the Nemesis forge, he was thought to have been defeated in the Arena, but came back to haunt Tear in [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3dQFZ4l9l48&t=59s Episode 15]]. [[spoiler: The Machine eventually goes down during the final fight of Act 3.]]

* BadassArmy: Tear's Uruk army during the last campaign missions of ''Middle Earth: Shadow of Mordor'', which included warchiefs such as Krûk Blood-Axe, Feldûsh Giggles, Grisha the Coward and Thrak the Relentless.

** "[[AtrociousAlias Rash of the Black Gate]]", an Uruk captain from ''Middle Earth: Shadow of Mordor''. Tear thought that his name sounded more like a skin condition than a captain, and it was like being called "Boil of Mount Doom".

** Then there's Ûkrom the Machine, formerly Ûkrom Blood-Storm. The Nemesis brought over with the Nemesis forge, he was thought to have been defeated in the Arena, but came back to haunt Tear in [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3dQFZ4l9l48&t=59s Episode 15]].

-->And...oh there's a fucking eagle! [he then proceeds to shot at it and miss]
