Due to the nature of the medium and discussion of the ending, all spoilers for the WCSMP are unmarked. You Have Been Warned.
- Awesome Ego: Scott is prideful enough to have a self-admitted god complex at his worst, but he definitely has the abilities to back it up. It's telling that Bertha only allows him one life to beat the Obsidilith, as opposed to three like everyone else for their boss battles.
- Ensemble Dark Horse: Bertha; while they start off the series as a trader NPC, many fans have grown fond of them as their role expands into presiding over the preliminary dungeon trials and other professions. They become a Breakout Character in Week 5 as they too start posting their perspective of events to YouTube due to fan requests.
- Epileptic Trees: From the very start of the series, there have been countless speculations on the identity of the person Scott's been trying to bring back from the dead. Even after his name was revealed, there was still plenty of speculation to who was going to voice him.
- Fan Nickname: In its early days, several fans have taken to calling the series "the Girls and the Gays: the SMP", due to most (if not all) of the content creators involved being women and/or queer.
- Fridge Brilliance: How is Tiff able to eat that nightshade pie in the finale without being poisoned? She has had poison immunity as a Required Secondary Power ever since she gained her toxic mist ability.
- Friendly Fandoms: Due to creator overlap, many fans of WitchCraft are also fans of Empires SMP.
- Heartwarming Moments:
- Pris meeting her younger counterpart in a dream features Little Pris thinking her future self as cool; while present-Pris does try to sugarcoat things a little and is later established to have some past trauma herself, it's kind reassurance that her younger self would be proud of who's she become.
- Unlike the dungeon trials before them, Cleo and El are both good sports about it and keep their "rivalry" friendly and civil. After Cleo wins the boss battle, they even offer to teach El Hex Casting to help her become more powerful, with El declaring that they can be "awesome together". By El's 4th episode, not only has this promise come to pass, but she has been inducted as an official member of the Coven and wins the "loser battle" to do her friends proud.
- Scott and Milo's reunion at the end of the series.
- On Milo's end, he doesn't care what happened as long as they're at each other's side again, and on Scott's end, he literally gives up on his powers — and by extension, conditional immortality — for this reunion to happen in the first place.
- On a meta level, with cc!Scott's history of creating tragic characters (see the entirety of the Life SMP, Empires Season 1, and just about any 2020s Minecraft RP server he's been on), countless fans on social media are overjoyed that for once, an iteration of character-Scott actually gets an unambiguously happy ending that doesn't involve him ending up in the afterlife somehow (at that point, Empires Season 2 hadn't ended yet).
- Hilarious in Hindsight: In the context of the WCSMP; this video
of cc!Scott playing Among Us proves that he was hit by Apollo's dodgeball in the two and a half years between late 2020 and the run-time of the WCSMP, with this quotation in particular standing out:Scott: I love how this is like a cult following and I could just suggest something [and] they're like, "Sure." I am the Supreme Witch, and these are my Coven followers. - Moe: Little Pris from her present-day counterpart's dream, who thinks her future self having magical powers is really cool and doesn't understand how her future self would have trouble making friends because of this.
- Moment of Awesome:
- Pris discovers an Ancient City in her 2nd episode, and naturally, accidentally spawns a Warden right in front of her. While she doesn't survive the encounter, she manages to delay certain death by trapping the Warden in a bubble so that its sonic shriek attack bounces off its walls and rebounds on the Warden itself.
- In spite of Bertha's warnings that the Void Blossom boss is powerful and formidable, Cleo takes minimal damage in her fight against it… as in, a fight that is over in approximately 30 seconds.
- After summoning the god-tier boss Ayla, Scott proceeds to use the Fang Barrage spell to defeat her in 10 seconds. While having lost 15% of HP due to an earlier demonic contract and taking next to no damage.
- Shelby making it to second place in the Witch Trials is a cross-series Moment of Awesome considering her past, as her backstory in Empires SMP Season 2 was that she started out as an Unskilled, but Strong Inept Mage, and only goes to show how far she's come over the past decade.
- Nightmare Fuel:
- Shelby and Pris' Ancient City raid goes very, very wrong when Shelby mistakenly believes that every person can trigger a Shrieker 4 times before a Warden is summoned. In actuality, 4 Shriekers have to be triggered in total for a Warden summon… and naturally, Warden #1 is summoned mere blocks away from Pris. The two essentially had to stand still for a long while before it crawls back into the ground. Then Shelby tries to get one last chest… and inadvertently triggers a fifth Shrieker and summons Warden #2 right in front of her. At one point, it was quite literally staring her down before roaring and immediately killing her.
- When Pris and Joey decide to pull a Rivals Team Up against Scott and attempt to sneak into his house to Taglock him for curses… it goes very poorly. It turns out that Scott already knew of their plans due to invisibility espionage, has already taken the time to sabotage Pris' cursing equipment, and considering his own Nigh-Invulnerability and the fact that he beat multiple Withers earlier in his episode, he seems to almost treat the entire ordeal as a game and ends the confrontation having taken zero damage whatsoever.Scott: One down, one to go~!
- While searching to tame a Dire Wolf as a mount, Tiff stumbles across… a strange figure in the woods, which looks like it has a deer skull for a head. She immediately flees into the trees and cries for someone to sleep and make it day already.
- It's later revealed that it's Scott wearing a Leshon skull, who even directly name-drops the trope after transforming for the first time.
- Squick: The hot springs at Bertha's Resort are heated by Ghasts that Mertha is releasing out of her butthole. It's counted in-universe as well, considering Pris' reaction to learning about this is to immediately climb out of the water.
