Cosmic Break/YMMV

Everything About Fiction You Never Wanted to Know.


  • Crowning Moment of Funny - While most of the funniest moments are made by other players, there's the zero-star boss fights which become jokes. The list:
  • Demonic Spiders - Players sporting low-liability bots with ridiculous weapons such as Blast Bazookas and Gatling Bazookas. Can front load hundreds of damage when used by smart players, and when you kill them they're barely worth anything. And they have more where that came from.
    • Done quite literally with Tarantulic, a spider bot with Web Gun, which inflicts the very annoying slow status effect. It Gets Worse if you put Winberrl arms on him, leading to stun, slow, AND being pulled in.
    • Vanguard Fencer, a RT only bot, does incredible damage even fresh out of the Garapon, and tends to stun anything he gets in range of, leading to a swift death. Fortunately, he has absolutely no defense against ranged attacks.
  • Goddamned Bats - They live on Arcantus. Also come in the form of Pterodactyls with breaker rifles in their heads.
  • Good Bad Bugs - The origin of Lagkuns (lagging players spamming Jikun's Flash Step, allowing them to outright teleport and phase through objects) and Hoppers (the Short Hop skill replaces the dash with a small jump ; it is known for messing with the targeting system). Opinions are divised on whether they're valable tactics or just annoying ; however, the glitch allowing to spawn on top of the BRD area's giant sword is just plain awesome.
  • High Octane Nightmare Fuel - The short anime video that concludes Chapter 2 of the "Sacrifice" manga.
  • Les Yay - Ivis and Crim, who are more than heavily implied to be the official couple.
    • This loading screen from the Japanese version, involving a happy looking Crim, Lily Rain on top of said Crim, a turned on Jikun Hu, an... interested Jikun Long and... Lily's ass.
    • A lot of the pairs of moebots have some subtext... Eventually they just decided to give up on being subtle and add a character who was canonically a lesbian.
  • Memetic Badass - Herr Victor, Mighty Byne, and Dracken.
  • Memetic Mutation - The game occasionally references memes. Over 9000, MY BODY IS READY, etc.
    • Ascended memes really.
      • "For Lazflamme's underboob!" is becoming a popular battlecry as well. Also, "<insert Cosmic Break character/GM> is mai waifu".
      • The word "Manly" has recently become a meme as well, especially on the fan forums.
    • Boytitan, a notoriously bad player who always has a ridiculously high cost.
    • hola
  • Most Annoying Sound - Any radio command played over and over again, especially if someone's using CS-chan or New Heroine as their radio voice.
    • One clan in the English beta took this to the extreme by naming themselves after one of Zero Saber Girl's radio quotes. ("SUGOI SUGOI")
    • *bee-beep* IMA WA MURI NANO
  • Most Wonderful Sound - The sound when you land a hit on your opponent, or if you're being repaired under a support bot's healing field.
  • That One Attack - Every boss has one. Berzelius can slam into you, often killing you instantly unless you have something like 600 HP, where you will usually get half of that taken off instead. Then there's Fractulus, which fires a giant green laser that kills everyone who touches it. After that, there's Demonfox Haku, whose every attack either breaks some of your parts, inflicts a debuff, or kills you instantly. Even THEN you have not considered his Fantastic Nuke. THEN you realize that he has two different nukes. Lastly, there's Action Bomb C.S-chan who blows herself up and instantly kills everyone in range at low health.
  • That One Level - Temple Site. The map itself will kill more players than anything else. Don't be surprised if the participant number goes down when it comes up in the cue.
  • Tier-Induced Scrappy - In the betas, Ivis was this. Out of beta, her Tier-Induced Scrappy status has been significantly reduced... mainly because Aquila Girl is much, much worse. To an extent, Lily Rain EVE is also considered a Tier-Induced Scrappy herself, due to her shield ability, insane damage output, and good mobility (high FLY stat, as well as the Float Dash cartridge).
