I actually love that Silver is so amazed by plants. The guy grew up in a post-apocalyptic hellscape where everything that could burn *did* burn

I mean, in Silver’s defense, if I grew up in a world of nothing but fire and brimstone, I’d be grateful and geeking out over plants too.

As my uncle always says, “The mind is the weapon. Everything else is a tool.”

The scary thing about Giygas is that the games never describe HOW he's attacking the party. It only tells us that either "The form of Giegue's attack was inexplicable!" or that "You cannot grasp the true form of Giygas' attack!" He is such a powerful psychic in the former that Ninten and co. can barely begin to process his power, and so much of a cosmic horror in the latter that Ness and crew can barely even begin to comprehend what exactly they are actually dealing with.

"And in the comics he's geeking out over plants, what a dork!" bruh you need the context behind that shit.

Want to say for the record that the reason Neku's powers are all called psychs is because literally everything he does is fuelled by his imagination. Those cans of soda aren't just something he's pulling out and drinking, he's basically spawning them out of thin air with the power of his mind.

Ok, Raz got the recognition he deserves, I'm satisfied. Good job, kiddo.

Good #1. He's so powerful that he can't even be contained in a physical vessal. Nearly all his power needs to be sealed away just to maintain some part of his ego. He doesn't use physhic powers, he literally is phychic power. Power without a body, ego or mind. And even sealed away and weakened his power extends and bends time and space.

You know it’s going to be a good psychic list when Psycho Mantis is number 10

I could NOT agree more about Silver the Hedgehog! Give this adorable dork the come back he deserves! I wanna play as him again in an upcoming game...Main character or even just a secondary character! Just do my boy justice, Sega!

“If your mind make someone’s head explode” Or if you’re a Jojo character

I have a few suggestions for a top 10: 1. Top 10 puppet masters 2. Top 10 pirates 3. Top 10 knights

You know what? I'll say it, I'm glad you mentioned facepalm hedgehog boy, cause you're 100% right, Silver's got potential and can still be saved from the hole he dug himself into by saying that it was no use. Just hope they remember to do it at some point.

Hope everyone with a body is Psyched up for this. Did not expect that number one

Either MewTwo or Alakazam is getting that Pokémon slot. I also have a feeling Silver is gonna find his way on the list. Edit: "Be on your guard". That would imply the next list is Shield Users.

"OF COURSE!" That always brings a smile in my face. Stay eternal, Raul Julia.

Finally, someone on the internet gave my boy Silver the credit he deserves!

By the by, spoilers for psychonauts 2 below… Razputin has even more potential than we thought, as the little dude has stupid powerful psychic power in his BLOODLINE, his aunt was literally one of the original psychonauts and a flat out TERROR to the nation of Grulovia. Dude not only beats down his aunt’s fight instinct pretty much by himself, but he’s done everything in all three games… in three days.

I love psychic powers! When I first saw his top 10 spellcaster video and he mentioned the no psychic rule I wanted him to do a psychic countdown! This has been years in the making if you ask me!

You know, I found a lot of people I didn't know, but I'm glad I could predict Silver and Mewtwo.

That Number 1 though. *God dayum!*

Lets not forget at the end of FEAR 2 where Alma has her way with the protag only to have twins in FEAR 3 that are basically clones of herself and the father

IT HEEEERE BOIIIIIS LEZZ GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!! (*also crosses fingers for Alma Wade on psychics*) *edit* LEZZZZ GOOOOOOOOOOO

Man, this Armory hasn't been open for over five years now. I cannot wait to gain myself a brand new power that was promised to me back when I first ordered the mystery box offer that the Armory had on their website. As the new countdown suggests, I might be getting my first taste of psychic abilities within a few hours. This should be fun! Yeah, number 1 really should have been incredibly clear from the beginning...

“The static shock reboot i always wanted” now that’s some good writing

Well I'll never be able to unhear the asari description now

32:37 Think tanks? Dammit, Comic! That was you again, wasn't it? I loved it.

The Mind is not wasted on these Psyonic Masters and here are my thoughts on each: 10: A classic Barely made the top ten, gotta feel sorry for old Mantis. 9: A reincarnation of a Psychic Goddess.... Neat. 8: An Iron Bending Mobs spawner with a Giant Metal Suit... Awesome. 7: Ah one of the two lovely Mass Effect Ladies, from shy scholar to Galaxy saving Info Broker. 6: Outside of That Game he's a big dork? I'd be willing to try that game. 5: Psychic Ghosts with a Crush on the PC....Great... 4: Psychic Alien Bug Lady that can shoot Space Lasers.... CURSE YOU CUTSCENE POWERS! 3: The Original number 150! Mewtwo! 2: OH HECK YEAH! RAZ! 1: .... Welp... Having Nightmares tonight.

36:46 It was at this moment Oscar knew... he f*cked up.

I have an idea for a set of lists. How about a villains month. Because there are many types of villains: the mastermind, the fallen hero, the psychopath, the dragon, the bully, evil incarnate, etc.

36:50 Well I guess I'm not sleeping tonight.

Silver may be a dork but he's my dork

Personal honorable mention: Ruvic from the evil within. Reason: You chase him in his brain while he's using it to bend his inner reality against you.

"It's no use!" I laughed so hard at that.

I love how all but like two (maybe three) of the characters on this list have some level of past trauma that motivates them. Psychics don't tend to lead happy lives, do they?

Yeah, Raz is on the list!

Someone missed an opportunity for a pun with the word espionage in the Psychonaughts segment.

1st: The lab joke makes its GLORIOUS return. 2nd: Mewtwo actually did get hit once in the movie, that being when Mew was knocked into the clouds by one of his Shadow Balls, only to return it to sender. Yet Mewtwo just shrugged it off like a light breeze.

I'm happy Silver made it on the list but also disappointed that Eveline from Resident Evil 7 didn't.

Just for your commentary on Silver, this vid gets a like! Finally, the poor boy gets some good recognition.

this might be the first time i've seen a KZfaq countdown where the person presenting actually knows who Giygas is. that alone was worth a like, a favorite, and were i not already, a subscribe.

I hope he does more element lists with umbramancers and photomancers.

Mewtwo finding new ways to be broken. Pegging fellow psychic Mew with a ghost type shadow ball that it would have been immune to in gen 1 if it even existed yet.

I agree with the number 1 spot. Fighting against that boss fight for the first time gave me chills.

You got your FEAR lore wrong, Oscar. Alma was put into an induced coma, gave birth to two children (your avatar in the first game and Paxton Fettel), and died at 26 when her life support was pulled. Still, she DEFINITELY qualifies.

Honorable Mentions: *Shiki Misaki - The World Ends With You -As much as I love Neku and TOTALLY AGREE he should've been a contender, my first choice for TWEWY was Shiki. If only for her ability to use psychokinesis on her stuffed cat, Mr. Mew, turning him into a living weapon. Plus, her ultimates have her creating multiple Mr. Mews or even creating a giant Mr. Mew. *Haru Okumura - Persona 5 -Yes, technically Haru DOES wield an axe and grenade launcher, buuuut Haru IS the party member with psychic attacks. *Kenshi - Mortal Kombat Series -A blind swordsman who uses telepathy to see as if he is Daredevil? Sign me up. Plus, he can use psychic powers to lift his sword and even other foes. Best seen in one of his fatalities where he uses telekinesis to smash his opponent against the screen a bunch of times before slicing them with his gravitating sword. *Crypto - Destroy All Humans Series -He DOES have his saucer and weapons, but he can also use his mind to lift objects, hypnotize people, or even make their heads explode and collect their brains!

Calling it right now: This weapons month will have a jack of all trades list. Jack of all trades are characters that use multiple different weapons and can't be categorized as using a single weapon as their main one.

Raz being number 2 makes me so happy. To me he is the definition on how to write a psychic character.

"Be on your guard?" Shield users?

I am so happy to see Weapons month come back once more and boy was this first countdown a mind trip! This is gonna be fun! These countdowns never cease to entertain me.

I always like your detailed explanations because that way I can always understand your reasonings for putting your list together.

3:20 to 3:30 how funny that you used footage of Futaba and Menat since their both voiced by the same person (both English and Japanese)

The only Silver the Hedgehog fan since day one: YES! THANK YOU!

Fun Fact about the Alma entry and apologies in advance for this paragraph worth of info... In the first F.E.A.R. game, we play as the Point Man, who is one of Alma's sons with the other son being the main antagonist, Paxton Fettel, however; Fettel went homicidal after Alma's awakening, allowing him to see the pain and horrors that Alma was inflicted thanks to her abusive father and the reason for this was because he linked with Alma before at a very young age, 10 years old to be precise! The hallucinations of Alma that we see when playing as the Point Man are Alma's way of trying to reach out to him because she knows Point Man is her son. The only reason why she attacks Point Man is because he doesn't recognize her as his mother, he only sees her as an eldritch monster that he thinks he needs to kill in order to end the nightmares.

For an honorable mention, I go for Akira from Live A Live, since he's about the sole psychic of the Near Future, able to read minds to learn the troubles of others, has powerful psychic abilities, the greatest of which is Judgment Day that has the potential to inflict multiple enemy units with a ton of status ailments and just about every debuff, and near the end of his story, he uses psychic powers to pilot a giant robot to take down a malevolent god that just happens to be one of several incarnations of the game's primary villain (though that's pretty spoilery, so probably shouldn't have said it but, eh).

Scorp you'd be happy to know that i've heard that there's a sequel to Psychonauts on its way

18:58 I’m getting Haru vibes...don’t give the guy an axe.

Weapons Month is what exposed me to your channel like almost a decade go. Super excited to see a new installment.

I appreciate the EVE theme that plays throughout the video. One of my favorites from NSR.

Any telekinetics in the room, raise my hand.

Neat list. I think an honorable mention could be the Pipotron from the Ape Escape series (Pumped & Primed most notably for Western fans). A mysterious trio of monkeys (Tron Red, Tron Blue & Tron Yellow) who were created solely to kidnap and steal a special disk Helga's father made under orders of a Mystery Man. When the disk wasn't there, they entered the Gadget Tech Tournament as as it turns out the disk was hidden in the trophy given to the winner. After they obtain the trophy (either by winning the tournament or stealing it from the winner) they smash the trophy and reveal the disk, but then are cast aside by the man once he gets the disk. After that they help the main cast fight their way through the Virus Tech Tournament (which includes facing off against a group of super clone versions of themselves) to the virus Grid Core & defeat him. After that they vanish. They have various psychic powers such as energy manipulation, psychic blasts, and various specials: Tron Gush (conjures dark flames from the ground that protrude forward & hurt any in the way), Darkness Scream (forces everyone to drop what they're doing for a few moments), Tron Cannon (launches a massive energy ball forward, hurting all it hits) and Darkness Stream (conjures a tornado around them that sucks in and hurts everyone nearby). There's also of course Specter, the main antagonist of the series who's a super intelligent monkey who also has psychic powers such as telekinesis and mind control.

The armory has opened once again. And what a crazy ride we're on!

24:04-24:17 Oh, just wait ‘til you get your hands on Persona 5 Strikers, Oscar. 😅

InB4: I dare you to blow my mind 13:47 Did...did you just pull a 'roll credits" on us? Entry 4/Jean Grey DB when?

Predictions: Mewtwo from _Pokémon_ Psycho Mantis from _Metal Gear Solid_ Giygas/Giegue from the _Mother/EarthBound_ series (as he's invincible against your PSI attacks) Rasputin aka Raz from _Psychonauts_ Less likely: Nova or maybe even Joule from _Azure Striker Gunvolt_ (technically, all Septima are extensions of psychic powers according to the lore; in Japan, Adepts are even called Psychics) Haru Okumura from _Persona 5_ (I mean, her element is Psy...) O.S.A. Soldiers from _System Shock 2_ (wide range of abilities to learn...some more useful than others)

"Be on your guard", eh? Top 10 Shieldmasters, perhaps? =3

The best part regarding Raz is that this came out a couple months before the long-anticipated sequel, which not only was worth the wait IMO, but also gives him a slew of new abilities as he tries to fix the kinks that the Psychonauts agency has among its chief staff.

28:23 Oh how I've been waiting for this to make a come back.

Silver geeking out over plants does actually make sense for him. Guy literally grew up in an infernal apocalypse, the mere idea of plants wood naturally have him green with envy towards people that live in what he'd consider the past.

I knew Alma would be on the list. What I didn't know was that Athena knew wing chun and is a reincarnated goddess.

Matilda taught me that psychic abilities can be strengthened by reading a lot of books. By that logic Silver's boost in power is due to him being imprisoned in a library since 2006.

Oh yeah a new weapons month starts soon doesn't it? Nice! I always loved your weapons month videos the most and I'm looking forward to this one and the others coming up in May.

Weapons Month time! My favorite time to be watching the Green Scorpion!

It was nice to see Sabrina and Lucian get a mention, though I'm more partial to Caitlin when it comes to the trainers.

"I'm gonna own you, Silver!" "Ok" This is why the Sonic fandom is so weird.

Glad to give number 2 their credit. Funny enough, one of the very first lists I ever watched from you was Top Ten Games You've Never Played... Yet and their game was on it! (Which I was happy to see.)

I've been anticipating this ever since weapons month 4, and let me tell you, it was well worth the wait.. I can't wait to see what the rest of Weapons Month brings!

So what if your style is overly analytical. It’s a personal style that sets your videos apart from other countdown artists. No one has the right to tell you your personal style is objectively wrong or mediocre in comparison to other KZfaqrs.

The backstories of Alma and Sarah remind me of Ava Starr/ Ghost from the MCU

I'm so happy Raz is here. Psychonauts is easily my favorite game of all time and the sequel is looking to be even better.

EXCELLENT countdown Oscar. Looking forward to what's next :)

I love video games lists. You earned a sub! I would've loved some honorable mentions or someone from Phantom Dust to make the list, but all the choices here are solid!

4:16 Who could have seen that coming? (a psychic might have)

Nice can't wait to see the next 4 lists!

I have a feeling he’ll have to redo this list when Scarlet Nexus comes out.

"most of the time it's not even a fight, she just wins" *Shows footage from her pulling an Anissa on protag kun*

Excited for Weapons month V 🙌 been here since before the first one.

THE HYPE IS ON!! Now I’ve got a new top ten to listen to while working

36:44 I just love that "*Record scratch* OH."

8:38 When you hear this part without paying too much attention to it, it sounds like he says put up her fucktive barriers 🤣

Kind disappointed that Neku and Joshua didn't make it. But hey I understand the reason.

Has no one told him about the potential new psychonauts game? I remember seeing a trailer for it.

It makes me very happy you've covered star craft, through perhaps the high Templar unit would have served your porpoise batter

Time for some mind tricks.

Weapons Month 5, huh? I really hope one or two Gunvolt characters get on the lists.

I keep forgetting one of the main villains in the FEAR games has my name.

*"I CAN SEE THE FUTURRRRRE!* "

hey Oscar can you do a top ten games based on Hispanic Culture with Josh

Oh my gosh!!!! Yes!!! Weapons Month is back!!!

If the Asari take the form of whatever species looks at them, then do their true forms resemble lovecraftian horrors or mannequin-like grey aliens with calamari for hair?
