NOTE: Honest Game Trailers DMoS should be added here

Keep in mind:

  • Sign your entries.
  • One moment per work to a troper; if multiple entries for the same work are signed to the same troper, the more recent one(s) will be cut. For subpages that cover multiple works, it's permissible for one troper to have entries for more than one work.
  • Moments only, no "just everything he said", "the entire episode", or "this entire work," entries.
  • No contesting entries. This is subjective, the entry is their opinion.
  • No natter. As above, anything contesting an entry will be cut, and anything that's just contributing more can be made its own entry.
  • Explain why it's a Dethroning Moment of Suck.
  • No ALLCAPS, no bold, and no italics unless it's the title of a work. We are not yelling the DMoSs out loud.


  • Bengson 26: Going into Sacred Cow territory, Sohinki of Smosh Games has this moment in the "Game We Hate" episode of "Why We're Single". Here, while talking about the WWE Video Games, he says the only good thing about them is the "Create A Character" because you can "make characters as derpy as the fans of the games". You know, because there's no better way to get your opinion across than to call the fans of the games retarded.
  • Pkmon 11: For me, it would be their major Critical Research Failure in their "Video Game Quiz Fail" video. In it, one of the questions was "what were Ghost Type Pokemon weak to?" One person answers with "Psychic Type," and Joven actually says that is the correct answer! Ghost type Pokemon are only weak to other ghost type and dark type; Psychic Types are weak to Ghost Types, not the other way around. I guess they thought that because of the Pokemon Gastly, who is a ghost type that is also poison type, which is weak to Psychic Types, and I understand that Smosh Games has focused more on the first gen than the newer ones, but they should have still known that Gastly was part poison type, even genwunners should know that. The fact that they were asking this as a quiz question is especially baffling! They should have done more research on what the type effectiveness of ghost types are before asking the question on a quiz. I know Smosh Games can have some moments where it feels like they don't understand the game, but this moment in particular irked me the most, if you don't actually know what the type effectiveness of Ghost Pokemon are, don't make it a quiz question!
  • Riley1s Cool: Ye gads, Smosh. I can tell you their "Smash Rap" video firmly turned me off of their content. First off, Megaman is a Creator's Pet to the highest degree, being the main character. From the start I could tell it wasn't gonna go well, but it got worse as it went on. Effectively, Rock and and Samus start Battle Rapping. No problem, right? Except Megaman strictly uses misogynistic insults, and his verse amounts to calling one of the most famous Action Girl characters in gaming a whore. "You only got in the game because you give the best Down-B, players only pick you to stare at your tits, etcetera." (And yes, these are actual lines.) Then she has an awesome comeback, telling him off, and he tells her it isn't a beauty pageant and he beats her anyways. Then they bring Villager in, and he ends up being Nightmare Fuel at the expense of Animal Crossing. And then after Megaman blasts him away, who should show up but Mario himself! Except Mario's such a dick that it ends up where you can't care about either, even when Megaman delivers yet another Curb-Stomp Battle. I get that rap battles are mean, but derailing characters for them is not a good purpose, and being sexist to Samus is never okay.
