Context BerserkButton / LetsPlay

Go To

1When a nice, normal character suddenly goes into a rage, you've hit his/her BerserkButton.
2
3* WebVideo/{{Jacksepticeye}} hates [[invoked]][[FanNickname Billy]] from ''VideoGame/HappyWheels'', to the point that "Screw you, Billy!" became one of his many [[CatchPhrase Catch Phrases]].
4** Don't ever dare to question his bossness.
5** He gets mad when people post irrelevant comments, especially to complain about him not playing more ''VideoGame/{{Undertale}}''.
6** The constant circular conversations with the Cleverbot AI, due to the general lack of context recognition and poor response matching.
7** He hates the "FUCKIN' SNOWPLOWS" on ''Turbo Dismount'', mainly because they always seem to mess up his flow.
8* Don't mention ''VideoGame/{{Vanish}}'' around WebVideo/{{Markiplier}}. Just don't.
9** Games with SomeDexterityRequired or bad controls are also this for him, especially ''VideoGame/SurgeonSimulator2013'', ''VideoGame/IAmBread'' and '''''especially''''' ''VideoGame/GettingOverItWithBennettFoddy''. The last caused him to rage so hard while playing it that it's almost painful to watch, with repeated on-camera meltdowns (and you can tell that it's legit rage, he's not just overacting like he occasionally does) and him actually ''throwing his computer chair across the room''.
10** Do not interrupt him when he's in the middle of his intro. This button is pressed in several ''Drunk Minecraft'' episodes.
11** Any intentionally-frustrating games or rage games will set him off without fail.
12* WebVideo/PewDiePie will go berserk at the mere sight or even ''mention'' of barrels, often leading to him SuddenlyShouting the B-word at the top of his voice. Originates from his playthrough of the ''VideoGame/AmnesiaTheDarkDescent'' custom story ''Abduction'', where he would often accidentally knock a stack of barrels over, creating a loud noise which both startled him and alerted nearby monsters to his location.
13* ''[=LowTierGod=]'': Where to begin?
14** Losing, natch. It's the quickest way to set him off in any game.
15** {{Shotoclone}} characters, particularly Ken and Akuma.
16** [[ChargeAttack Charge characters]] such as Guile and Blanka. Notably averted by [[VideoGame/StreetFighterIII Urien,]] who he is known to play.
17** [[GrappleMove Grappler]] characters such as Zangief.
18** [[ConfusionFu Characters with difficulty to block strategies and "50/50 mixups."]]
19** [[SpamAttack Spam tactics]], [[{{Hypocrite}} even though often uses such tactics himself]] (especially with Snake in ''VideoGame/SuperSmashBros'').
20** Players who use unpredictable and[=/=]or desperate "[[VerbalTic YOLO]]" tactics.
21** Fatalities.
22** Wake-up attacks (especially wake-up Shoryukens).
23** Pretty much every single character that beats him, even when [[MirrorMatch the character is the same]] [[https://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=lowtiergod+mirror+match that he's using]].
24** Luigi and Ness in ''VideoGame/SuperSmashBros'', moreso than any other character.
25** Teabagging, which almost always guarantees a rage-quit.
26** Other black people. He is a notorious BoomerangBigot.
27** Two-stock games in ''Smash''.
28** Being called out for any of the above, even in jest.
