* SophomoreSlump: The second season is regarded as a step down from the first season due to the lack of cohesiveness in the storylines, particularly Finn's mission to find the Black Knight and [[spoiler:the storyline of Theodore being kidnapped by Klondike]]. It doesn't help that Vijay became the only main character who is only regulated in the background with no backstory or character-focus episode at all until the staff announced a special episode to remedy that.

* IKnewIt: [[spoiler:Viewers speculate that TILT is Finn's older brother and while others theorized Apple Link is Finn's brother. Then, both "Winner or Loser" and "Sweet Home" confirm that both theories are correct with a twist: TILT also disguises as Apple Link by using Burst's Ace of Hearts' Card so he can watch Finn.]]

** Ban and Theodore in "Once Upon A Time", not at all helped by the title making their past history together sound like they're talking about a fairy tale. [[spoiler:Ban's habit of being up in his face and even grab his face the day they met, their blossoming friendship with each other, and even Norman mentioning that their cards being the King and Queen of Diamonds probability means they're drawn to each other.]]

* EnsembleDarkhorse: Danny Wesley a.k.a. Sonic Move earned many fans because [[NiceGuy he's using his Card to help people]] unlike the other Players and even helping Finn and Chris when the civilians on the temple were in danger despite that those two are after him. Many viewers were dismayed that he got captured by High Card in the end and hoped to see him again.

[[spoiler:Ban's habit of being up in his face and even grab his face the day they met, their blossoming friendship with each other, and even Norman mentioning that their cards being the King and Queen of Diamonds probability means they're drawn to each other.]]
* {{Narm}}: "To Be Apart" ends with a major WhamShot of [[spoiler:Chris shooting Finn and leaving him for dead]]. The fact that this really dark scene is immediatelly followed up by the upbeat and jovial ED is jarringly hilarious, doubly so because the first shot of the ending animation is Chris singing happily while driving.

[[spoiler:Ban's habit of being up in his face and even grab his face the day they met, their blossoming friendship with each other, and even Norman mentioning that their cards being the King and Queen of Diamonds probability means they're drawn to each other.]]
** While the show normally tends to have the moments between Finn and Chris be seen as them just them being close buddies, the above episode blatantly sets them up as [[HistoryRepeats a present day equivalent to Ban and Theodore]].
** The sheer dedication Owen Alldays has towards Theodore at times comes off like a SubordinateExcuse. [[spoiler: Unfortunately, the Klondike family easily exploits this.]]
* {{Narm}}: "To Be Apart" ends with a major WhamShot of [[spoiler:Chris shooting Finn and leaving him for dead]]. The fact that this really dark scene is immediatelly immediately followed up by the upbeat and jovial ED is jarringly hilarious, doubly so because the first shot of the ending animation is Chris singing happily while driving.
