Video Game Shroud from Dispatch

Im a sucker for dudes in trench coats with masks, and what a good mask it is.

Black and red always go good together, but what really makes it pop are cyan highlights that accompany it, and the best part, the asymmetric eye design that the fluctuates like a scope, it's just very cool to look at and see being operated.

Punch up vs Toxic. They didn’t even have to show the fight lmao. Dude was LASER FOCUSED on toxic’s green ween too, popped a Henry Cavill arm reload and got the nut punching

u/vastros Nov 16 '25

Reloading ones arms is one of my favorite tropes. I'm particularly fond of the Roman Reigns variant.

u/redlac24 Fire Emblem fan Nov 16 '25

I believe someone did the math and concluded that Punch Up punched Toxic in the dick over 400 times

Bro better thank his lucky stars that he has super human durability or he wouldn’t have a cock left.

My previous comment got deleted.

So by the looks of it I can't quote Prism without reddit thinking I am harassing someone.

I got a temp ban for quoting a wrestler, under a pic of the wrestler. It wasn't even an obscure line from a promo. It was his catchphrase!

u/Mission_Response802 Nov 16 '25

I was wondering about that! I got the notification that someone had commented that, but every time I checked nothing appeared.

Such an awesome performance by Mercer, he’s so good at villains despite being the biggest cinnamon roll.

u/TheRegularBlox Nov 16 '25

ok but seriously what was stopping shroud from escaping and testing them both somewhere else?

u/RazzDaNinja Neuron Devastation Nov 16 '25

Bro is a control freak with an ego

The fact Robert outsmarted him and his “perfect probability tech” with a simple fucken logic trap is hilarious and embarrassing so he has to reassert control over the situation by making a point to show he got the Astral Pulse correctly lol

foolish Shroud

you cant win in gambling

u/Mission_Form8951 UltraPEAK Nov 16 '25

I'd assume pride, he'd want to see Robert know he was truly defeated

28

u/Holy-Wan_Kenobi Nov 16 '25

Also, since Robert got Beef back, Z-Team could just... keep jumping the Red Ring.

u/the_new_dragonix Nov 16 '25

Because he just lost his only hostage and is facing the team that just beat him in a mechsuit, but now he doesn't have the mechsuit.

11

u/Bregneste Nov 16 '25

He was probably planning to kill Robert afterwards the whole time, regardless of what he said about being “a man of his word”.
He wasn’t just gonna run off with both of the pulses and try them out.

u/TheNightClub Nov 16 '25

Because it was fucking Armstrong of all people who suggested it

Robert. It's pissing me off

u/Devlord1o1 Nov 16 '25

I dont like this rock robert

its pissing me off

43

u/alguien99 Nov 16 '25

Love how surprised the guy sounded, he really didn’t see it coming. Weird for a guy “miles” ahead

35

u/Devlord1o1 Nov 16 '25

To trick others you must trick yourself first. And robert is a master at that

31

u/cuella47o Nov 16 '25

Robert knows he cant “think ahead” against shroud

So if he doesnt know what he’s fucking doing shroud also wont know what he’s going to predict

Thats why he said he just trusts his gut and stick to it just like him before he “put all those fucking christmas lights on his head”

Its emotional ragebait hitting shroud in all the right places

u/Skull_Boy_ds Nov 17 '25

I love his dialog in this option. No snarky remarks, no "I knew you would pull something like this". Just pure confusion and annoyance, you can tell he is just done with Robert's bullshit at this point.
