i have been informed of the reason why specific Fire monsters are on specific Magical islands, thank you all for letting me know :)

Just to give a little clarification the specific fire elementals that went to the magical islands are based off of the magical islands originally being planned to be fire Islands, like with psychics fire frontier. Edamami was planned to be the quad of fire frontier, along with yelmut being for light island, flum ox being for bone island, and krillby being for faerie island.

I gotta say, the Fire Expansion gave Light Island the glowup it needed and deserved. Drummidary and Yelmut sound HEAVENLY

With the mimic “watch out” I think it means that a fully grown mimic can canonically shapeshift into other monsters, as it says in adult mimic’s bio

I love how light island is supposed to be a gentle lullaby but they just add in the loudest monsters in the game

yelmut on light island scared me so bad, but it ended up sounding so good, i love what it and drummidary did to the song

To be honest I find the choice of monsters on the Psychic Island to be the most genious one if you count the Fire Frontier and the voting for the 4th element that was carried out at that time Edamimi represents Team Earth Bisonorus represents Team Air Bowhead kinda represents Team Cold because at the time most people voted for Team Cold only for Bowgart (also because Bowhead has the exact same elements as Deedge excluding fire)

I’m pretty sure I know the reason why certain monsters are on the islands they are, but this is merely an assumption: Initially, before Magical islands were magical, they were meant to be fire islands. Flum Ox would have been the quad of what Bone is now, Light would have had Yelmut, Krillby would have been in Faerie, and seemingly Edamimi would have been on Psychic.

The reason punkleton sounds normal on the continent and not like seasonal shanty is because bbb invited the original voice actor back to do it

4:13 I knew I wasn't the only only who thought Anxiety looked like Rare Wubbox

the background changing from night to day in the intro / outtro is such a cute detail

I don’t like the sound font for Candelavra’s voice in the main game, it sounds more like a strange synth noise instead of a heavenly vocal. If she used her same sound font from Dawn of Fire, she would sound much better on Haven.

Psychic island has DEFENITLY improved. Even though Edamimi dosent add much, the other ones go SO HARD

Fire Expansion is so genuinely wild to me as a week of content. In a single week, we got THIRTEEN new monster sounds, 8 Rares that migrated to a new island, and 3 new rares. All across 9 islands!! Plus, this is the first week where you can ascend Plixie without gambling or spending diamonds. It's genuinely such a huge update. I don't even remember the last time we got an update this big... if we ever even have. The launch of the game?? I'm pretty sure 1.0.0 had 23 monsters and 2 islands, which depending on how you count it is either barely more or barely less than this update's new content.

You should make a yearly video of updating your msm rankings. Because in like every week or two songs change a little or a lot. And plane out new songs come out.

Honestly, Light Island's Seasonal event should have been what the Island looked like from the start. If the Island is about Light and the monsters are multi-colored, the rainbow crystals and fireworks just fit it all better than the bland *black and yellow* . The only Seasonal skin worth buying outside of getting the boosts.

one of the quads on each of the magical islands has the elements that the island was originally meant to have when it was a fire island, when they switched the islands to the magical islands the fire quads were replaced, for example yellmut has fire, plant, cold and air (air replaced by light) but they are back now! (which is also the reason yellmut and flum ox are on oppisite islands)

Light Island has always been my favorite Magical island, and I’m glad to see it getting positive attention. I’ve always been a fan of Light Island despite is harsh criticisms. While others found it to be repetitive and annoying, I’ve always found peace and comfort. But now the inclusion of Yelmut and Drummidary, it not only kept those intact but it also added vigor to it, made it feel victorious. All I got left to say is that they did it, they gave Light Island the chance to really shine!

I loved all the new Fire Expansion additions, but Light Island was my favourite, and it might partially be because the devs took the risk with Yelmut and went OFF. Light Island was special to me, and now it's somewhere in my Top 5. BBB is amazing.

The reason yelmut is on Light Island is because the magicals were originally supposed to be fire islands and the quads wouldce been: Yelmut - Light Edamimi - Psychic Krillby - Faerie Flum Ox - Bone So they wanted to do a homage to it and the other monsters were just picked because woopie!

I assume that for next years DOF Spooktacle, we'll get Punkelton and the other seasonals on an Outer Island. It would be super weird if it just never grew up and went to an outer island ever. It would be a good way to extend the life of the game too.

Light island theme is like a mash between a lullaby and a parade. First half of the song is more lullaby but as the song progress you hear horns, drums,loud noises and fire works what you usually hear on parades and as the beat drops its like a lullaby again but with horns of a parade in it. This update was what light island needed in my opinion. Lack of drums/percussion here have tiawa and drummidary, repetitive? here lets make tiawa play near the beginning and make yelmut and drummidary play together first then later add tiawa back in the end of the climax, "Light island is boring and quiet" well here have Yelmut and Drummidary. Its like a little of everything that fans want for light island in these three Monster, Im so happy to see everyone loving Light island it really deserves it😁🎉

I'm really excited for Mimic to come to Fire Oasis (the only Fire Island without a Quint), probably during Perplexplore in May. It's also a great opportunity for Mimic to copy more than one Monster in the same song, giving it more of an identity unto itself than "Fwog 2". That's what's reasonably likely to happen. My INSANE theory is this: The Magical Islands each got 2 Fire Quads and 1 Fire Quint added, but Fire Haven and Fire Oasis will only have a Quint when all is said and done. Candelavra is great, but that lone addition was completely overshadowed by the 3 new Monsters on the Magical Islands. So, if the Natural Quint is being added in Perplexplore, I think it's a fantastic opportunity to mirror the Fire Expansion with a Natural Expansion! Entbrat, Riff, Shellbeat, and Quarrister will journey to Fire Haven and Fire Oasis, balancing them out against the Magical Islands. Deedge is left out of the party because the pattern established so far is 2 extra Quads to an Island, and Deedge has already gone on a journey to Shugabush Island. I know this is a bit crazy, but the Fire Expansion was unprecedented in both scope and execution, and with Perplexplore being 6 months apart from Feast-Ember, taking place on the only Fire Island that wasn't expanded, and bringing the Natural Quint to the game, I think it makes sense to do it again!

Hey man! Love your videos. Quick tip, when you're fading the scene in the beginning to black, the one where you're in your bedroom instead of having both your character and background fade out at the same time, make a black png and have that fade in over your scene. That makes fixes the problem of you becoming transparent as it fades away :)

9:48 Look Gertrude!!! There I am!!! Albeit I only appear for nine seconds, it feels great to be credited alongside MPG. 💛 Also THANK YOU FOR MENTIONING GNARLS’ OFF BEAT TRACK!!! I thought I was going bananas because everyone on Twitter was talking about how good it was. I’d take your version of Gnarls over the OG!! I made a community post about my thoughts on the new monsters if you wanna read that. Also Meebkin and Auglur are iconic!

I first found your channel via the first MSM tierlist video and have been a big fan ever since, keep up the hard for king 👑❤

Cool That You Came Back To Rank These Guys! Also I Agree With Everything On The Mimic + Punkleton Section.

12:04 it brings me from 90 percent excited to 120 percent

such an amazing video i've been wanting you to continue this ever since the ethereal workshop

WOOOO! Version 2! or however you want to word this

i had no idea who you were before this video but honestly the style of the video, the way the script is delivered AND the great justifications already make me wanna be a long time fan

I love your new ranking, especially the opinion on Light Island, one of my favorites, also nice monster, love it!

Idk why but I really like your reactions. Every time you appreciate a monster I personally like I smile a bit

I remember watching your pvz vids and loving them and then I realised you were ALSO a msm fan. Love this channel

YES! Please keep updating the tier list over time!

This video is amazing!! Great editing, great content!! Keep it up

I love this channel and every time i see a new video from you it makes me smile. thanks for that :3

love the video! and I think the reason why it's says "Watch Out!" in mimic's description is because on cave island it is absolutely massive.

Candelevera doesn’t even sound like a vocalist anymore. It’s not bad, but it could have been better. I didn’t have high expectations anyways. Light island moved from my C tier to A tier. I’m in love with Tiawa’s subtle and calming support. It makes the song feel a lot more personal and nostalgic to me. Yelmut also completely blew me away. It gave the song so much power I didn’t know it needed! Psychic island was greatly improved by Bowhead. It makes Gloptic’s verse worth listening to imo, but that Rooba verse… it’s so bad. Now it’s like Bowhead’s competing with Rooba. Bowhead’s build up is wasted, the melody sucks, it’s repetitive, it’s bland, Rooba doesn’t even sound PLEASANT, and Rootitoot is at his worst here! Bowhead could save this island, the song just needs a little revamp. Faerie island just moved to S. No doubt about it. The Froot fly, Tuskski, and Krillby combo is magical. Platty’s good and all, but damn i kind of wish it just let the 3 of them play. Krillby’s second verse is fantastic as well. Bone’s honestly worse for me. Gnarls is just too off putting and it kind of takes charge of its verse instead of supporting it yknow? Let pekidna thrump and toe-jammer do their jobs! I actually really enjoyed hearing Flum ox though. He’s so catchy and I love his deep voice.

Probably the best video ive seen in ages. Just the way you speak makes me happy

Your opinon is so good bro you earned yourself a sub

I have a theory about Punkleton not being on any Outer Islands. You know how the Seasonals went to their islands a year after their introduction, and then they got their Epics a year after that? I feel like it'll be something similar to that. First time around, they'll be added to the Continent. Next year, they'll go to an Outer Island. And a year after that, they get their Prismatics. It makes sense to me at least.

The meme transitions are so good

Completely off topic, but I love the addition of Angry Birds music in the background!! Also I WAS SO EXCITED ABOUT ETHEREAL WORKSHOP WHEN IT CAME OUT!! I agree with the shortness of it, I can’t wait for more monsters to come out!! I was also so happy about the fire expansion update!! It was a huge shock to me, but my favorite island update out of the ones that got updated in fire expansion is definitely Psychic!! 🐝🐝

THANK YOU for acknowledging how lackluster tuskskis design is literally no one else has even mentioned it😭

I respect your opinion. Genuinely a great update to the tierlist!

Amazing video keep up the good work

IMO, the island that benefitted most from the fire expansion was Faerie. It might just be my favourite island now, Tuskski and Krillby sound SO good!

I personally think Flum Ox fits perfectly where he is on Bone Island, making that part almost ethereal sounding.

i honestly didnt think faerie could get any better and this update proved me so wrong, also bowhead finally redeeming himself after his VERY brief sound on Amber was awesome to see: honestly the latest updates barely even feel real but I’m definitely glad they are lol

I like the concept of light island and after the update that came out a couple days ago it talk to my new favourite magical island 😊

Thank you for wishing me a happy birthday on November 1 I am a big fan. You are underrated

I just love bone island because it came out during quarantine, so it was really exciting to work on.

i can’t believe my favorite fire elemental (edamimi) went to my favorite magical island also BOWHEAD GETTING 3 TRACKS AND PLAYING THROUGHOUT A WHOLE SONG AND CANDELAVRA BEING HEARABLE WERE SUCH BUG SUPRISES

i’m curious to here a quick summary about your thoughts on wave 2 and 3 of ethereal workshop!

I don't want to be annoying but I feel like krillby wasn't talked enough mainly because how krillby dueted with hippity-hop and also how krillby does his little cute dance as hippityhop sings, its golden.

So happy I've found a youtuber that truly enjoys msm and doesn't just use it for content

Once again knocked it out of a park with this video!

I was waiting for this one! :D

when i heard of the fire expansion, i didnt like the idea, but it makes all the songs so much better (other than bone)

Soooooooooooooo, this was an amazing update. Most of the monsters sounded heavenly and were supposed to be on the magical islands from the start!

They left us hanging with Ethereal Workshop 😭 at least we've got major updates with the fire monsters. I'm so glad this update to the tier list is out!

12:44. Ever since it’s release, light Island has been one of my favorite islands and the update just makes it better.

i love your vids dude!

My favourite part of Ethereal Workshop is that a bunch of the monsters are designed by the fans!! Blarret, Auglur and Flasque were designed by fans that got the chance to work as interns for BBB and they feel so fresh (I think Nyehehe was also a fanmade monster?)

Ok ngl, Seeing another gold island lover is amazing, since people think the island is boring, they need to hear the last 20 secs

I personally think that flum ox fits that verse well enough, also I don't find gnarls off-synchness that bad

Honestly, I can’t listen to the full magical songs right now with the update, but from what I seen like I want pills improved a lot, plus they added my favourite fire monster( Yelmit ) Most of the magical islands hasn’t changed, but very London improve a little bit.

The Continent and Ethereal Workshop are getting updates! In the Festival of Yay Trailer we see three new monsters! On the Continent we see 2 Monsters never before seen on there, Tuskski and Yool! They both go in the verse with Glowl, Yelmut, Wynq, and Maw! And then, we go to Ethereal Workshop, where at the very end of the trailer, we see lightning strike, which in turn, shows a Shadow for a brand new workshop monster! We also get Rare Scargo, Rare Monculus, and Epic Bellowfish! Edit: Even more updates! We got the Baby Versions of Blabbit and Schmoochle, making the Continent sound… admittedly worse, but then we also got Bowhead, and it is honestly really cool, it’s also on Space Island too! We also got Flasque, Nitebear, Whaill, Piplash, Vhenshun, X’rt, and Pentumbra on Ethereal Workshop! And the big one, Magical Nexus, which was another island teased by Josh Harmon, as we got a teaser for not just Clackula, but also Bonkers, meaning this is an island for all Magical Monsters… except for the Sanctum Monsters… for some reason, but I’m sure we’ll get them eventually! …aaand we got Mimic in the First Game! Added to Fire Oasis in the Perplexplore 2024 Update, Mimic mimics Spurrit and Gobbleygourd, which is fitting, cuz both of them are silly just like Mimic! I love Mimic’s inclusion! Oh yeah, Wubbox also got on it’s final island, which just so happens to be the exact same island Mimic got on, and yeah, IT’S RUN ENDED WITH A BANG!!

I believe Flum Ox is on Bone since it was originally a Fire Island with its Elements. For example, that's why Whaddle's Amber Island is so similar to Banjaw. Anyways, I LOVE Flum Ox on Bone lol... The best addition to Bone imo. Despite that, I think it should have been on Psychic because of it meditating and everything. Speaking of Psychic... Honestly, I've never liked Psychic Island. It's repetitive, and incredibly boring. The Rootitoot verse actually sounds really bad to me, I can't believe it just used to repeat the same thing before the Dipsters. That verse is ASS. Now, Bowhead made the Toe Jammer verses a lot better... but I think it made Rootitoot's verse WORSE. There's no saving that verse, and there's no saving Psychic Island. I'm really glad you liked Light Island's additions, I love them, it was always a contender for my favorite Magical Island but Faerie usually took the spotlight for me. I think I can safely say Light is my favorite now, mostly due to Yelmut... Whizbang leading in to it's yelling just WORKS. It's amazing. Speaking of amazing, this video! Great content as always.

There's a perfectly logical explanation to why these fire nubs are on their islands. When you go on holiday, you want to go to strange and foren worlds. As such, this lot want to go to somewhere they've never really seen before with interesting inhabitants. Exept Candelavra. Wimp.

I love that they took the risk for light island and added my favorite monsters to it! Light was and Is my favorite island (not including dawn of fire)

The track you made of ethereal workshop was what I thought it was going to sound like

fire expansion! Also his editing: ANXIETY FROM *no no word*ING INSIDE OUT 2!?

I was already quite a fan of magical islands as a whole, but HOT DANG did the fire expansion bump them up! Especially on Light, which was my favorite to begin with. Yelmut and Drummidary go so hard. Have to agree with you on Candelavra though. Its voice and especially its chord progression are kinda off-putting for where it does play.

You have to be one of the best all-round youtubers (for me at least) It doesn't matter what you talk about, its always entertaining. I don't even play MSM anymore, good job.

I still wish PongPing was louder on Faerie, he sounds REALLY good

Aah I was hoping you would make this

Rare Spurrit and Rare Bona-Petite were already teased 2 weeks before in MSM’s Extra Life 2023 stream

Now it's time to do the lost landscapes islands! They sound so good! (My favorite is uh... The weird one... Where the monsters look... Different...)

I have a theory that because fire oasis was the only island not updated with the fire expansion that instead it’ll get an extra monster come perplexlore. And of the 6 islands, only 5 quads have been used… so mimic for oasis make that song even more playful why not

I’ve noticed that this update improved a lot of peoples opinions of light island and it’s no longer the ugly duckling of magic islands. I just with I had an ungodly amount of relics to improve my light island.

Dude this video was fire, my thighs are puddles, and I'm only 12 seconds in. Cleanup on isle, MY PANTS 🗣🗣🔥🔥

10:46 i feel like the only reason they added flum ox into bone island is that befire magicals were planned, flum ox was gonna be the quad for bone island until they scrapped it. Until now. (I think one of its verses in amber island is the verse that was supposed to play on bone island too).

I never knew yelmet out of all monsters would sound so good on light island

Not just was it based on past plans, they were all fully composed by dave kerr, and yelmut brings back the original sound he composed

I always thought anxiety looks like rare wub, thanks for speaking my mind

Blarret isn't vocal, it's an otamatone. I won't blame you for thinking that way though, they're such weird instruments that have so much personality.

Gnarls sounds too positive for bone island and even garls itself. I think bone was the best magical at the start, but as time went on its calm and solemn essence was lost by the additions, while the opposite happened to the other magical islands.

since the magical islands were originally fire islands, the original quads for these islands were: light - yelmut psychic - edamimi faerie - krillby bone - flum ox this is the reason for big blue bubble putting yelmut on light and flum ox on bone

13:03 WHERE DID YOU FIND THIS also great video, it came out as I was watching the original one lol

Faerie island went up from my favourite to my UNDEFATABLE favourite.

These videos are great

Yelmut fans are FEASTING today

Probably the best update we've had so far

Fairie Island sounds like Club Penguin now.

I knew gnarls sounded a little offbeat!

fire expansion looked like a joke to me at first but I love it haven didn't change much for me, shame they cut back how much buzzinga plays light (somehow) became even more beautiful and majestic psychics intro is so badass now, love it faerie became such a beautiful and amazing song, definitely moved up for me (also krillby hitting a schmoove) and bone is still great imo, not that impressive of a change but a welcome one. I love flum ox's inclusion, he and kayna work great together

To be honest, whenever I heard Yelmut on Light, it sounded just like I expected it to. Oh yea, do you finally remember... Uhhh, was it Pluckbill? No... Perry the Platypus? I don't know, the sitar one.

Honestly kind of sad how little views you got on this this video The quality was genuinely amazing compared to most KZfaqrs ❤
