Line 58:
* [[Eldritch Abomination]]
* [[Gone Horribly Wrong]]
{{quote| '''Major Failure''': Please God let it die. For all of our sakes. We're sorry.}}
* {{spoiler|[[Staying Alive]]}}
 
Line 80:
 
* [[Blessed with Suck]]
{{quote| '''Major Failure''': He can leap tall buildings in a single bound, but his bones break upon landing. He can shoot webs, but they're usually speckled with his own blood. Poor bastard.}}
* [[Kill It with Fire]]
* [[The Woobie]]: They're portrayed as hilariously pitiable, especially when the last surviving frog gets cancer. Winds up getting invoked in-universe when even the normally heartless Zoofights Inc takes pity on him and allows him to quit a hopeless fight with Swanmass instead of leaving him to die.
Line 119:
One of the most mysterious zoofighters ever, Owl Patrol began life as 80 human beings. Once survivors of the Vietnam War, these shellshocked veterans were subjected to horrific experiments as Zoofights Inc slowly turned them into owl-men. Even Zoofights was disturbed at what they created, and decided to release them in the hope that they'd never pop up again. 30 years later, they did. Investigating reports of missing people, Zoofights representatives ventured into a mysterious cave and discovered that 20 members of Owl Patrol still lived.
 
{{quote| '''Major Failure''': What we found, after four days of fruitless searching and our men being dragged screaming into tiny passages beneath the earth, was pure zoofights gold: 20 survivors of the Owl Patrol Project, still dressed in khaki rags, clutching rusted, jagged fragments of rifle parts and caked in three decades of blood, filth and horror. We had finally created the most insane organisms on the planet.}}
 
=== The Institution ===
Line 353:
* {{spoiler|[[Armchair Psychology]]: His loser's league upgrade gave him the ability to use this against enemies.}}
* [[Arson, Murder, and Jaywalking]]:
{{quote| 'The fury of forgotten water devils, the sorrow of a dying race, the sheer capacity to be a total dick of a macaw.'}}
* [[Giant Flyer]]: The Mess is 30 feet long and can fly.
* [[The Unfavorite]]: As mentioned on the main page, Major Failure is not a big fan of The Mess. Mainly down to the fact he hates drawing jaguars.
Line 428:
* [[Bigfoot, Sasquatch, and Yeti]]
* [[Drugs Are Bad]]: A very rare example of Zoofights playing this trope straight – Riot Yeti’s history of drug use gave him a bit of brain damage, and in his fight against Dakuvanga, his poor decision-making costs him the match.
{{quote| '''Major Failure''': Oh Riot Yeti you stupid motherfucker. }}
* [[Everything's Better with Monkeys]]
* [[Shell Shocked Senior]] / [[Zen Survivor]]
Line 496:
* [[All-American Face]]: As Wrasslopod.
* {{spoiler|[[Crack Defeat]]}}
{{quote| '''Major Failure''': {{spoiler|We warned the Americans, but did they [[Precision F-Strike|fucking]] listen?}}}}
* [[Eagle Land]]
 
Line 881:
* {{spoiler|[[Handguns]] / [[Revolvers Are Just Better]] Than Holograms}}
* {{spoiler|[[People Puppets]]:}}
{{quote| {{spoiler|When Krilldozer's construction team took him out for testing during the Manhattan riots (aftermath pictured [http://zoofights.squarespace.com/storage/zoofights6/r2f2/krilldozer.jpg here]), he managed to impale two entirely non-cybernetic hoodlums, and make them scuttle around making pincer motions with their hands while they begged for it all to stop. As such, it would seem his hacking abilities may no longer be limited to machines.}}}}
* [[Power Armor]]
* {{spoiler|[[Take Over the World]]}}, maybe:
{{quote| {{spoiler|Ironichide via The Major: "He had killed the rest of the Kray team out of 'what looked like spiteful thrills' and begun a cult of other animals who guarded his new home at the head of the river on the starboard face of the volcano. His only focus was now reading ''Heart of Darkness'' by Joseph Conrad. Still laughing."}}}}
* {{spoiler|[[Taking You with Me]]}}
* {{spoiler|[[Ungrateful Bastard]]: Monster Truck offered Hardcore Prawn a paw when he was dangling over a pit of lava. He paid him back by throwing him into said pit.}}
Line 923:
 
* {{spoiler|[[Back From the Dead]] / [[Came Back Wrong]] / [[Came Back Strong]](?):}}
{{quote| {{spoiler|Why, why, why did nobody stop to think before hauling the corpse of the most intact Hippo left after Round One into the quantum resurrection chamber and hitting the On Switch? The damnable machine fulfilled its purpose of disassembling the hippo at an atomic level and rebuilding it in a living state in the next room - but it also worked its grisly magic on the brute's entire stomach content. Tragically, this meant that the hippo, when reborn, was fused with the remains of eight crowd members and Sawz, the hapless pangolin who was devoured by it at the very start of their duel.}}}}
* [[Big Eater]] / [[Extreme Omnivore]]: Duh
* [[Body Horror]]: {{spoiler|[http://zoofights.squarespace.com/storage/zoofights6/ll-fight-2/hippangolin%20larger.jpg Hippangopotalin].}}
Line 938:
 
* [[Ax Crazy]]
{{quote| The Zoofights Foundation took him in when he was but a chimplet, held in a stainless steel boxcar and scheduled to be destroyed after being ejected from the most violent zoo in America for murdering all the elephants.}}
* [[Cool Shades]]
* {{spoiler|[[Curb Stomp Battle]] (see below): PEP-Simian was ''creamed'' during the voting period, half because Hare Metal had dark magical powers and half because everyone wanted to him fight Croaka-Cola in the Losers League.}}
Line 1,019:
* [[Shout-Out]]: Probably to ''[[My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic|My Little Pony Friendship Is Magic]]'' (but using only that for your vote will earn ''negative points'' {{spoiler|Modifying an ''actual'' My Little Pony is okay}})
** If she wasn't at first, she is now.
{{quote| [[The Sociopath|Friendship Is A Redundant Concept Only Held By The Weak.]]}}
** Averted in real-life: If only Major Failure had the time to ask [[Brian Blessed]] who would win, a giant electric eel with a cool shoe or a giant electrified horse.
 
Line 1,119:
* [[Not Even Bothering with the Accent]]: "Herb" tended to go off on H.H. Johnson-style intellectual rants, sometimes not even making a cursory effort to correct himself after he realizes what he’s saying.
* [[The Men in Black]]: In Zoofights 6:
{{quote| "I am Agent Johnson, a representative of, let us say, a covert branch of the United States Fish and Wildlife service, here with the full cooperation of the British government."}}
* [[Shout-Out]]: Maybe to [[The Question]], who's also detective without a face, and The Question's own expy [[Watchmen (comics)|Rorschach]], who has amoeba-like blobs on his mask.
* [[Voluntary Shapeshifting]]
