SuperG64 (also known as simply just Super) is an American YouTuber and Super Mario 64 machinimist who joined YouTube in 2015 with 10,900 subscribers as of December of 2023. On Twitter, he sits at approximately 1,300 followers. He is known for recreating popular online trends and memes in Super Mario 64, as well as creating his own original Super Mario 64 Bloopers. He began creating Super Mario 64 Bloopers and livestreams in 2017. When he first joined YouTube, his dawned a color code featuring a light-blue cap/shirt, red overalls, and black shoes, resembling Ice Mario. Shortly after it was modified to include better shading, black gloves, dark blue shoes, and eventually red eyes in 2021.
Role in Super Mario 64 Machinima[]
Super is portrayed as having a serious tone but knows when to chill out and joke around. He’s often sarcastic and could accidentally be hurtful in his choice of words. Though, he still cares deeply for his friends and continues to fight with and for them. During combat he becomes way more lively compared to his normal rather timid self, and even a bit careless (he gets a real kick out of it). But this carelessness can easily lead to his downfall. He battles without concern for his safety and cares little if he is wounded or exhausted by a fight, allowing him to take massive risks and deal immense damage, making him an integral fighter to the team. He always keeps his Evoker on him. With it, he can summon his persona, Eyerok, to fight if needed on command. He uses it because he cannot fully control Eyerok as of yet, meaning it could be summoned and act on it's own.
The painting worlds surrounding Peach's Castle undergo a sinister transformation during the night, manifesting as distorted versions of their former selves. Since the events of "Meet the Super(s)," Super, along with his teammates Evil and Grace, utilizes the power of their Personas to confront unknown beings known as Shadows within these Dark Paintings. As of now, we do not know when these worlds originated or the group's goal.
Character Abilities[]
After awakening to his Persona, Eyerok, Super has unlocked a range of abilities that seemingly few others possess...
Super excels in Fire and Wind magic skills, with Fire being his specialty with the skill Blazing Hell. He can also use buffs such as Heat Riser to increase himself or another person's stats for a set amount of time. Other abilities include God's Hand, where in exchange for health, Eyerok can slam down on the enemy reminiscent of the iconic boss fight from Super Mario 64. Nocturnal Flash is another tactical ability, which consumes Super's stamina to disorient and daze opponents, leaving them vulnerable to his onslaught, inflicting greater damage. For ultimate devastation, Super can cast Megidolaon, an almighty skill that defies any attempt to reflect, absorb, or block it. The only option for foes is to flee, as it unleashes a catastrophic force that cannot be contained. In addition to his offensive skills, Super possesses passive skills that simply enhance his abilities. Fire Amp increases damage dealt with his fire-based attacks, intensifying their destructive potential, while Dizzy Boost increases the likelihood of inflicting dizziness upon his foes, rendering them more susceptible to subsequent assaults.
Without the aid of Eyerok, Super's focus narrows to fire-based attacks. He manifests these flames in the form of fireballs, akin to energy balls seen in many Green Screen Fights. He also wields his sword as a melee weapon, which he can add a fire affinity to temporarily for extra damage. Harnessing the power of the Grand Stars unlocks Super's Grand Star Form, an enhanced state that amplifies his power and agility even further. However, the utilization of this form exhausts him more quickly and requires a longer recovery period.
