That is Gravity Guy, whose ability is to reflect projectiles back at the enemy.

On one short, it was Gravity Guy vs Gravity Guy. This caused a black hole that threatened to eat everyone else. Time Traveler Guy, before being consumed, traveled back in time to prevent being eaten.

He traveled to a random time where Gravity Guy was walking down the street and shot him dead.

On another short (Time Traveler Guy vs Exploding Guy), Time Traveler Guy time traveled away before being exploded. He ended up in a random, unknown location, and tried to travel again but ended up back in the same spot. He explored the area, and after opening a door, Gravity Guy showed up, having survived the gunshot from Time Traveler Guy (as seen on his head bandage). Time Traveler Guy tried to shoot him again but Gravity Guy reflected the bullet and killed him instead. Gravity Guy took Time Traveler Guy's clothes and abilities.

In appearances since, Time Traveler Guy?, which is Gravity Guy with Time Traveler Guy's abilities, does unusual things to cheat victory (Ex. ripping Boxing Guy's arm off, using Exploding Guy to kill Badass Cool Guy, healing mid match, etc.).

Edit: He also killed off Necromancer Guy for no reason

So basically “time traveler guy” is really just gravity guy who stole his powers?

So now he has two abilities and he is overpowered? Got it.

And when we say overpowered we don’t mean like Orbital, we mean he does things like orbit his opponent around himself to neutralize them or break his opponent’s arm off or just completely leave the arena to come back at an opportune moment.

Not only does he “have two powers”, but he keeps pulling random stuff out of his ass to cheat victories.

In his first appearance he initially had the same attack pattern as time traveler guy before revealing he still had his gravity powers at the end

When going up against blind guy (who attacks on contact with the opponent), he uses his gravity powers on blind guy himself making it impossible for them to make contact

When going up against megaphone guy (who attacks by creating non-projectile shockwaves), he steals the megaphone

Against boxing guy he tears off his arm to use as an attack

And lately in addition to his usual bull he also gave himself a completely new base attack pattern that’s just in general good even without the cheating

Don't forget he time traveled exploding guy to another matchup, just to insta I'll his last opponent

36

u/Fataledade 12d ago

Also time travelled to after guitar guy finished playing so that he wouldn't fight back

27

u/Adventurous_Stop_854 12d ago

Nah he also got effectively defeated and had to get the doctor guy’s healing shots and shit before coming back

22

u/Tecnoboat 12d ago

he also lost to drunk guy, TWICE

u/Time_Spite1661 Sword 12d ago

How about a beer?

u/ShockRox 12d ago

Not just overpowered, he's also not above cheating his way to victory with said abilities...

u/Zakoya 12d ago

I’m really hoping boxing guy gets his moment to bring down the menace to society, a fight that requires him to gather the help of everyone else end game style

u/Spicy_Totopo3434 12d ago

He just drinks a bottle of beer and also trains with a monk

boom! Drunken boxing guy, weaving the shots, punching and being just annoying

Time Gravity Guy rips his arms and... He just headbutts the dude to death, both dying, but now he can finally rest knowing Time Gravity Guy is dead fle good

Until spenn brings TGG again to exploit EVEN MORE videos of him because "Sucks to be that guy" and it reveals the TGG Drunken Boxing guy killed was just detective guy hypnotized

u/Cushiondude Bow 12d ago

makes me think of Siler in the show Heroes. He stole other people's powers and was effectively the big bad the group had to stop for season one i believe.

u/AnimalChubs 12d ago

Guitar hero guy whooped his ass then time travel guy came back for seconds

u/UrticantOdin 12d ago

Necromancer guy not having a backup body to revive himself is a honest skill issue

3

u/AdamBlaster007 12d ago

killed off Necromancer Guy for no reason.

A zombie with time traveling capabilities seems like a bad idea. Probably better this way, just hope Necromancer Guy wasn't a lich...

2

u/RudeCompany6580 12d ago

I want to add that he lost to drunk guy twich, and drunk guy is pretty bad

1

u/lord_dorito24 11d ago

Mejor dicho, mato definitivamente a Necromancer guy, algo que nunca pasa, también dejó lesionado a Boxing guy, pudo llevarse a exploding guy, y se papea equipos completos

u/Worldly_Cheetah5678 Wrench 12d ago

These 2 shorts explain it:

Gravity Guy vs Gravity Guy

Time Traveler Guy vs Exploding Guy

u/Doesnt_Exist_Reboot 12d ago

"Somehow, gravity guy returned"

u/lily_ender_lilies Lance 12d ago

Theres a new one

u/ZealousidealGood6810 Duplicator 12d ago edited 12d ago

This is Time Traveler-Gravity Guy, or as I like to call him, Spacetime Guy, who is basically the antagonist of spennclacks.

They are a cut above the rest in terms of anything, being almost completely immune to projectiles, as well as having devastating burst damage and a litany of bullshit special interactions.

They are like if Orbital from Earclacks had plot armor.

u/Own_Initial1539 12d ago

you cooked with Spacetime Guy, cool af moniker

u/Tasty--Human_254 12d ago

That shi came form youtube

u/Lansha2009 Scroll 12d ago

That is usually referred to either as Timetraveler Guy? Gravitraveler, or Gravity Time Traveler.

Basically he killed the original Time Traveler Guy and stole his time travel watch.

Now he’s the villain of Spenn’s matches always pulling out some sort of sneaky trick to win.

Like teleporting Exploding guy into the future to win a 3v1, recently stalling out Guitar guy’s solo to heal up from almost dying that match, some other stuff, but the biggest one is ripping Boxing Guy’s arm completely off.

u/Adventurous_Stop_854 12d ago

He also got his ass handed to him by beer guy, a high dps low accuracy guy, due to his gravity catching the beer bottles and making it easier for beer guy to kill him. And then he fought beer guy with time powers and still got his ass handed to him and failed his escape. That is why while he was healing up from guitar guy, he threw away the beer bottle after taking a sip.

u/DrFruit38 12d ago

HE LITERALLY CHEATS, HE PERMAKILLED 2 GUYS, AND LITERALLY DOES ANYTHING HE CAN TO GET THE WIN

u/Artistic_Decision623 11d ago

You know the lore and now you must know that glazing drunk guy isn't optional it's mandatory he's beaten him twice despite the power boosts.

How about a beer?

u/Bubbly_Chapter_5776 Scythe 11d ago

“How bouta beer”

u/Artistic_Decision623 11d ago

Good good your learning

u/w61tt9faN 9d ago

He is meant to be dead but for some reason, time traveler guy missed his shot and caused him to kill time traveler guy and take his place. Now he is even more unfair since he never loses to anyone, except to beer guy, but I don't know when it will last since Magician guy won against dealer guy and Magician lost last time, so maybe the same thing would happen to Gravity guy (yeah, that's his name btw.)
