Season 4 is the fourth season of the Animation vs. Minecraft Shorts series. It is similar to Season 2 and the first seven episodes of Season 1, and chronologically takes place after Season 3. It debuted on May 27th, 2023, with the full video releasing on May 4th, 2025.

This season had episodes dedicated to each member of the Fighting Stick Figures, with four of them being "centered" around Yellow, Blue, Red, and Green respectively. One episode, however, focused on either two of them (Red and Green) and the final episode featured all of them together in a leading role, with The Second Coming as little more than a literal spectator.

The duration of this season is one hour, 16 minutes and 39 seconds, spanning six episodes.

Plot[]

Episode Thirty-One - Ultimate Minecart Race[]

At the finish line, Yellow creates a podium and corresponding trophies using the command block staff. He then flies through the race track in reverse on the said staff, until he reaches the edge of ALANSPC, where the starting line is. There, Red, Blue, Green, and The Second Coming prepare for the race as they add various items into their inventory. Yellow directs the sticks towards their minecarts, and the four of them hop in. Yellow pulls out a checkered flag and starts the race.

The minecarts go down a tunnel, and they each use a shovel to speed up and end up in a dripstone cave. The Second Coming stands up and starts placing minecarts ahead of him to create a long "trail" of them so he can directly run ahead, but after placing ten carts, Red and Green notice him and immediately try to steal his eleventh. Green throws his wooden shovel at TSC, who ducks, then responds by kicking a pair of his carts at Green, who also ducks. They both start grabbing over the minecart and accidentally throw it into the air, while Red, who was watching the whole time, grabs it. He lands ahead of them and places it while holding a twelfth, but Green literally jumps on top of him to steal it. Green manages to grab it, leaving Red stuck between the second and third carts in the trail, while TSC steps on Red as a bridge to get to Green, knocking it out of his hand. All three sticks grab for it...only for a random block of lit TNT to fall into the scuffle and detonate, knocking them all into the air, the extra minecarts into the water, and blowing a huge hole in the tracks. Blue sails past, in a mock "relaxed" pose. Behind Blue, TSC bends his back and angrily shakes his fist at Blue. Blue notices him and waves in mock friendliness, only to not notice the slope behind him, falling into the water. The others follow.

In the water, the stick figures try to go faster by swimming. Green takes out his trident and uses the riptide enchantment, enabling him to travel through the sea with haste and take the lead. Soon, he reaches a lush cave and propels himself out with the trident. Blue and Red follow behind, swinging on the vines above. Blue does so first, before being followed by Red, who partially fails at his swing, losing his cart at the edge of the beginning of the track and being forced to take out another. Meanwhile, The Second Coming, now in last, takes out TNT and lights it, before putting a shield to the rapidly detonating block and using its momentum to greatly propel himself forward, landing him in between Red and Green, in second.

Green, seeing The Second Coming, takes out his sword in a challenge to fight. TSC responds by lighting a firework and accelerating his cart towards Green. When he gets close enough, he jumps over Green, and they exchange blows with their swords. TSC lands ahead of Green and places a minecart, then lights another firework and moves ahead, only for Green to latch onto it with his fishing rod, slowing him down, then swinging under TSC and kicking him into the second cart, so the latter retaliates with another firework. Green pulls TSC's cart into the air in an attempt to unbalance him, but TSC throws his cart at Green, knocking him out of it. Green ends up taking TSC's old cart while TSC spawns a new one, now behind TSC. Green responds by grabbing TSC with his fishing rod...by the throat. TSC starts choking.

Meanwhile, from behind, Red and Blue increase their speed with their shovels and jump into the two minecarts that TSC and Green abandoned, abandoning their old ones. Green, meanwhile, throws TSC behind him, while Blue takes out his bow and shoots a couple of arrows at Green, which he deflects with his fishing rod. Red charges at Blue and enters his cart with a sword, which Blue deflects with his bow. Red tries to kick Blue, only for Blue to dodge and try to kick him back, which Red also dodges. The Second Coming, meanwhile, takes out a bunch of fireworks and rapidly throws them at Green, who jumps into the next cart (which TSC previously inhabited) to dodge them, eventually getting knocked out of it anyway. Red then abandons his sword and jumps onto the next cart (which Green previously inhabited), jumps onto the first cart, and tackles TSC as the latter activates a firework. Meanwhile, from below, Green takes out his fishing rod and kicks both TSC and Red out of the cart, the former taking out his sword to deflect a pair of arrows from Blue, then landing and spawning a new minecart. Green, meanwhile, throws his minecart at TSC, knocking the latter out of his minecart and hitting Blue in the head, also knocking him out of his minecart, before then using his fishing rod to grab the minecart that he just threw at TSC and use it again. TSC, meanwhile, loses his sword while Red equips a new one. At this moment, both of the sticks are left running instead of using minecarts. Red then lands in Blue's old cart and Blue in TSC's old cart. TSC then equips another sword, ready to continue their fight, only to be interrupted by Yellow flying on his staff, who informs them of an upcoming fork, the upper fork leading to a lush cave, while the lower one leads to an icy cave. Yellow then leaves, and the four sticks continue fighting. TSC throws his sword at Green's minecart and jumps at him, while Blue shoots arrows at Red, which he deflects with his sword, the last of which lands in Blue's minecart, making him flinch. Green then shoves TSC back into his cart. Green throws his fishing rod's bobber at TSC, which TSC deflects with his sword. He and Green stop fighting momentarily to take the upper fork, moving to the lush caves, while Red and Blue take the lower fork, moving to the icy caves.

In the lush cave. The Second Coming and Green stop fighting in favor of platforming, both carts jumping over three increasingly larger gaps, before Green ends up taking the lead on a massive fourth gap with drip leaves in between, the first of which Green jumps on, making it unavailable for TSC, who is forced to use lower ones that reduce his momentum instead. Green, gaining the advantage, moves on to the fifth gap, which is absolutely enormous with at least 30 drip leaves in between, several of which Green is forced to use after he loses all his minecart's momentum. However, TSC manages to regain the lead by swinging on the above vines instead, causing Green to panic.

Meanwhile, Red and Blue go down to the end of the icy cave, rowing on their minecarts once again to gain momentum. Red, now somehow behind Blue, places a rowboat on the icy trail next to him and starts rowing it, passing Blue, who thinks it's a good idea and copies Red. Red responds by taking out his shovel and digging out lots of snowballs to hit Blue behind him.

Meanwhile, TSC and Green reach the end of the massive gap and get back in their minecarts. They pass through a short tunnel before entering a massive network of broken tracks. Green, who is now behind TSC, takes out his fishing rod and swings towards nearby tracks, pulling himself forward and passing TSC, who responds by taking out a firework and boosting his cart once again. Green responds by pulling TSC out of his cart, so TSC flies upwards with a firework and leaves a little "present" (TNT) for Green, so Green jumps out of his cart. He then swings ahead of TSC once again, both equipping swords. TSC boosts himself toward Green once again and momentarily clashes diamond blades with Green before passing him, then both abandoning their carts. Green then swings ahead of TSC once again, so TSC flies up with a pair of fireworks and exchanges blows with Green again, both re-equipping their carts.

Meanwhile, Red continues shoveling snowballs at Blue. They reach the end of the ice river, both returning to minecarts. From behind Red, Blue takes out a crossbow loaded with a firework and shoots it at Red, knocking him out of his cart. Blue jumps over him in his cart and passes him. Red pushes himself off the ground slightly, and navigates to a spawn egg in his hotbar...

Blue, riding in his cart, looks back in surprise at Red riding on a horse. He tries to shoot them with a firework, but the horse jumps over the firework. He tries again, but Red jumps over the horse and the firework passes between them. On the third shot, Red grabs the firework, spins around, and throws it back at Blue, knocking him out of his cart. Blue loses his crossbow and is left running behind Red, significantly slower than his horse. Blue responds by taking out a blue Potion of Haste and drinking it, speeding up. But he's not even remotely fast enough, so he drinks another, then takes out another...

Red is riding on his horse when Blue starts to catch up from behind. Red stares at him in shock, as Blue drinks another potion and jumps over Red, leaving him in the dust. Red responds by feeding his horse a golden carrot, making the horse also speed up.

Back in the lush cave, The Second Coming and Green reach the end of the path and simply fall down from a great height, continuing to fight from there. They quickly both grab their respective minecarts, before TSC immediately streamlines his body to dive faster, which Green responds to by grabbing his fishing rod and pulling TSC upward, so TSC throws a minecart at Green, then putting it back in his inventory.

Right afterward, they are joined by Red, Blue, and the horse. Red takes out a lead and a spawn egg and throws it at Blue, spawning a chicken attached to a lead attached to Blue, significantly slowing down his descent, so he desperately tries to untie the lead. Red then does the same to Green, who blocks with his minecart, then to TSC, who dodges. He then tries again with Green, who dodges one and then gets hit by the next. He then does it to TSC as well, before kicking away TSC's minecart and returning to his horse, preparing another chicken-lead for himself.

Falling into a nether cave, Red uses the chicken-lead on himself at the very last second, then rides off. Green is next, bouncing himself up with a slime block. Three empty bottles then hit the ground and shatter, before Blue lands, throws another empty bottle on the ground and shattering it, before then taking off at incredibly high speed.

Red is riding on his horse with his chicken, with Green using slime blocks to bounce himself up and forward as well. After a pair of bounces, he throws several blocks at Red, knocking him off his horse. Meanwhile, The Second Coming flies in, using a firework to propel himself forward, having never actually untied the chicken from his body. Blue, meanwhile, bounces on several of Green's slime blocks as platforms, before reaching Green and throwing him into the ground, where the latter equips a fishing rod. Green then swings back up to Blue while TSC intervenes with a trio of lit blocks of TNT, while Green punches Blue away from him and into TSC, while Red throws a chicken lead at Green, slowing him down. Blue then takes out his bow, loaded with a firework, and shoots it at TSC three times, the third shot which hits TSC's chicken and kills it. Meanwhile, in retaliation for trapping him with a chicken, Green throws a trident at Red's horse, killing it and accidentally giving Red a huge boost, where he spawns a bee and leads it with a flower while Green uses his fishing rod to latch onto the bee, so Red retaliates with his other chicken (which he saved from the fall) and throws it at Green. Meanwhile, TSC and Blue trail from behind, TSC using a pair of fireworks to fly, and Blue simply using his superspeed. Blue launches himself away from TSC, causing TSC to accidentally release his fireworks while Blue loads a firework into his bow. Meanwhile, Red releases his bee to prevent Green from gaining momentum with it and replaces it with a new one. Blue, from above, shoots several fireworks at the rest of the sticks while TSC does a TNT jump without the shield, somehow setting his bottom on fire. Blue's fireworks end up killing Red's old bee while he lands on Red's back and Green latches onto the bee's back with his fishing rod. Blue jumps off Red while TSC, having lost all his momentum from his TNT jump, replaces it with fireworks and Green kicks Red off his bee.

At the end, Yellow with his staff celebrates and jumps up and down for his friends.

Back at the race, The Second Coming places another minecart and starts speeding up with a firework and Red gets back on his bee, chasing after Blue, who is still running. Green then latches on to TSC's cart and kicks him out of it, which Blue uses as a platform to get onto TSC, jump off of him as well, and then off of Green. Meanwhile, TSC uses his fireworks to boost himself up towards Red, before performing a TNT jump to boost himself forward just a little more. Red then throws a chicken lead at TSC while Green uses a fishing rod to throw Blue behind him. As all four sticks near the finish line, Blue uses fireworks to push TSC, Red, and Green back, accidentally pushing Red forward and killing both Red's bee and his chicken. All four sticks make one final push - TSC with his fireworks, Green with his fishing rod, Blue with a running leap, and Red just stumbling through in time with blind luck, having been pushed forward by Blue's fireworks earlier instead of backward.

The race ends up ending so closely that the finishing scene is replayed FOUR TIMES in order to see who won. The last time, the animation actually pauses for a split second to show that the race actually ended up a four-way tie.

All four sticks fall into the finishing chamber, where Yellow looks at them and examines the finish line to see who won, scratching his head in confusion. Green is the first to get up, jumping in excitement at his "win". The Second Coming is next, leaping in front of Green, believing that he won instead. Green shoves TSC behind him and insists that he won, so he and TSC briefly butt heads, before Red jumps in front of Yellow, insisting that he won, before Blue jumps in front of Red and insists that he won, showing Yellow his Potion of Haste and miming his superspeed. Red responds with his spawn eggs and leads, which Blue tries to one-up with a block of TNT, so TSC gets involved with a firework. All three sticks start arguing over whose "win" was the most impressive, except for Green, who just runs up to the First Place podium and steals the golden trophy. All three other sticks also race for it, accidentally setting off TSC's firework in the process, and start tussling over the trophy. Yellow scratches his head in confusion, before converting the standard podium into a four-way gold podium and giving all four sticks golden trophies. Yellow celebrates, but the rest of the sticks don't. In fact, they all end up redirecting their anger towards Yellow, thinking that his "solution" to their arguing was the worst possible one.

Episode Thirty-Two - The Chef[]

The Second Coming, Green, Yellow and Red sit at their table on Alan's PC hungry. While they express dissatisfaction at their vanilla Minecraft food, they hear Blue slurping down on a bowl of ramen, but refuses to share. Instead, Blue teaches them how to cook four bowls of ramen before serving. Green then takes out the recipe, asking where Blue got it, and Blue mentions that he got it from the Plains Village where he helped train the Villagers in the past.

They head to the Village, where they are led to the house of the Butcher. The Chef notices them, and shows off the Master Cookbook, but refuses to hand over to them until they complete the trading process. The stick figures attempt to bribe the chef with emeralds, and when that doesn't work, they try to steal the cookbook, but fail doing so before grudgingly accepting the task.

The first recipe is pancakes, with Blue documenting the process, and when they finish making them, they hand them over to the Chef, who gives them tomato seeds and unlocks the second trade.

The second trade is 5 pizzas for 3 oil buckets, and the process goes according to plan as well with the stick figures even add their own toppings before handing them over to the Chef, who gives them the oil and unlocks the third trade. While The Second Coming, Blue, Red and Yellow successfully cooked up the hamburger with fries and fried chicken, Green accidentally drops an unfinished doughnut into the fire. He tries to put it back into the oil, but he burns himself with the doughnut causing a fire to expand. After extinguishing the flames, the Stick Gang noticed that the last doughnut is ruined and might not accepted by the Chef. Before presenting the dishes, Blue attempts to conceal it between the other two.

The Chef approved of the dishes at first, but not before he noticed the burnt doughnut, thus calling off the trade. The Sticks beg for a second chance, but were denied after being kicked out of his house.

The upset Stick Gang dejectedly killed a pair of mobs outside.

The next day, the Chef leaves his house to find the stick figures sleeping on his doorstep. Taking pity on them after seeing their work stations, he reworks his third trade, giving the stick figures three maps, and creating a fourth trade, featuring lots of different foods. Their goal now is to go to three exotic places around the world and make four dishes from each.

Green and Red ride a horse to a Latin American village to gather ingredients tacos, tamales, salsa and crème caramel, Yellow and The Second Coming boat to an Asian village to prepare pad thai, sushi, steamed buns and bubble tea and Blue heads to a French restaurant alone to prepare boeuf bourguignon, a quiche, croissant and macarons. After getting the necessary ingredients, and with Blue documenting the process, they all bid farewell and return to the Plains Village.

There, the Sticks prepare all twelve dishes and the Chef arrives to judge. He tries them consecutively, marking each successfully-prepared dish. After he finally samples the macarons, he approves, fulfilling the final trade. He grants the Sticks the Master Cookbook, but it turns out to only be a book cover. The Chef explains that the real Master Cookbook were the recipes written down by Blue all along. Blue rips off the cover of his journal, and places the golden cover on it, satisfied.

The rest of the sticks, however, were very hungry, with a starving Green punching the Master Chef in the face for taking a unnecessary journey to get just a book cover. He, along with the other Sticks except for Blue, dig into the dishes they made.

Episode Thirty-Three - Lucky Block Staff[]

Yellow is holding his staff and removes the command block from it, passing it onto Red, who chooses to place a diamond block into the staff, hitting a brick wall with it. The next stick figure to use the staff was Green, who chooses to use netherite and destroys the entire brick wall, along with the taskbar as well. Blue's choice was an obsidian block which only moved several of the blocks. The Second Coming uses bedrock, knocking out a row in the wall and then moving the upper section of the wall, before Red uses the staff again, this time with wool, but the result would be placing wool blocks and doing no damage to the wall.

Yellow puts cobblestone in his staff and places cobblestone blocks around him, then Blue uses an oak log that created wood-based structures. The Second Coming uses the staff again, but this time using a crafting table. Green uses a furnace to cook raw food and smelt ores. Yellow uses an enchanting table and gave Blue's sword Sharpness V and many other enchantments. The Second Coming was about to place a lucky block into the staff, but feeling reluctant after remembering an incident from three years ago, and he decides to pass the staff onto Blue instead.

Blue uses a brewing stand that threw potions when used. Green uses a note block and created a music sheet while using it. The Second Coming uses an end portal frame, summoning a portal in front of him, he stuck his head through the portal and saw himself. Red's choice was a monster spawner that created hybrids of mobs, one of them being a creeper-bee hybrid called Beeper. It was about to explode, but Red gave it a cornflower, which stopped it. Blue uses a bone block, making it easier to grow the crops he has planted. Green uses a magma block, defeating a group of zombies with ease. Yellow uses a piston and uses it as a pogo stick. Blue uses a campfire and attempts to cook a marshmallow, but accidentally burned all of it. The Second Coming places an anvil and found it difficult to carry the heavy staff. Red uses a dispenser and places 64 arrows inside the dispenser, shooting a target block with many arrows. Green chooses to use TNT and summons four TNT blocks, destroying the taskbar with it. Beeper appears behind Green and almost explodes, but just like before, Red pacifies it by using a cornflower. Yellow uses a redstone block, sending constant redstone to two observer blocks, but accidentally sliced off the observer and piston blocks.

Last but not least, The Second Coming uses a block of lapis lazuli which gives him the power to fly, enchanting the taskbar. Yellow puts the command block back into the staff, and they all celebrate their discoveries. However, Red still seems distracted, wondering what the lucky block would do to the staff.

That night, Red plots to steal the staff from a sleeping Yellow. He sneakily takes it and replaces it with a bamboo stalk in a pot and sneaks out of their shared house. He replaces the command block with the lucky block and spawns another lucky block, this one containing spawn eggs. Excited, Red spawns five more lucky blocks, the first two containing a set of netherite armor on an armor stand and a cooked chicken on a sunflower stalk. The third one explodes, knocking Red back. Beeper returns and flies around, about to explode in Red's face until Red gives him a cornflower, which diffuses him. Red tosses the flower away, and Beeper flies after it like a dog playing fetch, allowing Red to return to his work. He thinks for a moment, possibly curious about how the lucky block staff works.

Inside the Lucky Dimension, one of the floating lucky blocks becomes electrocuted, as well as the lucky block within the staff. This causes a block of dirt under the staff to change into dozens of random blocks. The electrified block in the Lucky Dimension selects a melon and teleports it, causing the former dirt block to finally stop on a melon. This excites Red even more and he begins turning the taskbar into random blocks, one a piece of netherrack, another a slime block he bounces off of, and three blocks of the house into End stone, acacia wood, and a red mushroom block. In the Lucky Dimension, more and more blocks become electrocuted from the staff's power. Red, while having fun changing the taskbar into more random blocks, notices the lucky block in the staff is suddenly malfunctioning. He tries a few more times and bounces it off the slime block onto himself, making him woozy and causing the entire Lucky Dimension to tremble and the lucky block to spin through blocks like a roulette wheel.

Red soon recovers and notices the lucky block in the staff also began changing through blocks like a wheel. Confused, he tries it with a spider web and spawns exactly that. He tries it again with the lucky block and the web turns into a chicken that rockets into the air, knocking Red over, and then explodes. The staff stops on TNT, but before Red could try this block out, Beeper returns and threatens to explode. Panicked, Red drops the staff in order to attend to his new explosive friend.

Back in the Lucky Dimension, more and more blocks become electrocuted, and the camera focuses on the Orb producing random objects in its temple. An electrified block flies past the temple, which the Orb notices. The Orb then stops producing things to instead use an energetic pulse ability to slowly pull nearby blocks to it, continuing to use it repeatedly until the electrified block comes into range, and then forces the electrocuted block to select it, which warps it to ALANSPC. This allows it to take control of the lucky block in the staff, and control the staff as well.

Meanwhile, Red ties Beeper to a fence and lets him fly around a trio of flowers. With Beeper content and diffused for a while, Red returns to the staff and swings it a couple of times, but nothing happens. He shakes it and taps it, trying to get it to work, and finally begins slamming it against the ground. This causes a massive beam to come out of the top of the staff and makes a shock so powerful it causes a flowerpot in Green's room to fall off a note block. This wakes Green up and he notices the empty red bed in the room next to him.

When the light dies down, the Orb is suddenly on top of the staff and the entire taskbar is random blocks. Red realizes what he has done and tries to grab the staff back, but the now changing blocks surround it, collect themselves, and point it at Red, proving themselves to be sentient, or under the control of the Orb. Green runs outside, sees the random blocks in the house and realizes what happened. Red reaches for the staff, seemingly trying to talk the Orb down, but the blocks slither away and, while cornered, shoot lucky blocks at him. Red manages to avoid them, but with his back to an anvil, the Orb shoots another lucky block at him. Red braces for impact, but Green deflects it away with a shield at the last moment. The deflected lucky block explodes onto their house, waking Blue, The Second Coming and Yellow up, the latter of whom soon realizing he's holding a bamboo stalk with a pot instead of the staff. The Second Coming and Blue comes outside, not fully understanding what's going on, then an enderman with a pumpkin on its head spawns out, trying to takes the pumpkin off its head while screaming. The Orb still shoots lucky blocks, but now changes the floor into blocks, until the Orb shoots shulker's bullets on Red and Green making them both float. While Red just floats and Green just holds a block, The Second Coming takes out a shield but the Orb turns it into XP orbs, then Blue throws TNT and explodes the Orb, but the Orb can restore its blocks, until the Orb changes the TNT blocks into sand. Red and Green run out of levitation effects, The Second Coming catches Red, and they all takes out a shield, but the Orb turns each one into other items, with Blue's being turned water. Blue then uses a Swiftness X potion, and runs. He takes the water in the bucket, sets Red's position right into place, takes The Second Coming's crossbow and shoots a lucky block that's about to hit The Second Coming and lastly punches the staff and the Orb off the block mess.

The staff and Orb fall on the floor. Green tries to takes the lucky block off the staff but takes a lucky block out instead. The Orb then turns into the same mess as before and takes the form of a giant hammer, trying to smash the sticks, but a barrier line appears, blocking the Orb from doing so, which Yellow summoned with command block. Yellow traps the Orb in a barrier box, the Orb fighting around within, and Red goes to Yellow, thankful for the assist. Yellow, however, shoots him an angry look and pulls out the bamboo, causing Red to sheepishly admit he replaced the staff with it. The Orb then grows and activates absorption, absorbing everything including the sticks and Beeper into Lucky Dimension, leaving a lucky block on the floor.

In the Lucky Dimension, everything comes out at once, piling on top of the sticks. The Orb brings the staff over to its structure, which towers up to the sky. Everyone gives Red another look—Red no doubt feeling extremely remorseful—before racing over to deal with the Orb, leaving a melancholy Red behind. Beeper, sensing his owner's sorrow, gives Red a flower, which perks Red's spirits and he joins his friends. The Orb on the top throws out a golden staff to several spawned mobs, but below, The Stick Gang reaches the tower, and Blue tries mining it, but it restores itself quickly. All of them manage to get in by mining together with diamond tools, with Beeper joining them.

In there is a whole cave filled with mobs that want to attack the sticks, with a zombie pigman holding the staff the Orb gave it. They manage to kill them and get a new staff, which Red uses to spawn a huge ghast. They ride the ghast up, but on the top is a horde of mobs that jump down to attack. Red, the one holding the staff gives it to Green and he replaces the block in it with a note block. With Green's power and the others' energy, they kill the mobs quickly, with help from Green's musical notes, until when an iron golem shows up. Green shoots out a music string like cobwebs into the golem and shoots it, killing it and causing it to drop another staff, which Blue collects. Beeper flies around, making the ghast smile, and Blue replaces the block on the staff with piston to punch his enemies and spring himself around.

Green gives the staff to Yellow, then Green and the others kill the mobs. Yellow replaces the block in the staff with an enchanting table to enchants the sticks' weapons. Red's carrot gets enchanted with Flame which produces fire, and he fires a skeleton horse. The Second Coming's golden boots get enchanted with Channeling which produces a lightning bolt to whatever he kicks, and he kills vexes with his boots. Green holds a villager that gets enchanted with Knockback 99 which knocks things hard, and he knocks a blaze out through of the tower. Yellow enchants a dispenser Multishot, Piercing 99, and Knockback 99 which all produces a quick shot of projectiles inside of, with Yellow puts a bunch of projectiles in it and with all the enchantments the sticks fight. The Second Coming with his lightning bolts accidentally charges a creeper, about to made a big explosion, The Second Coming throws it into the wall which drops items, then Beeper went there searching for an item but it wasn't there. The Second Coming kills a zombie with a dripstone staff, giving him a staff, and Yellow kills a mob with two staffs, giving Green and Red a staff. Then Beeper flies to Red giving Red a block of TNT and he puts it in the staff.

Then, a Queen Bee appears spawning a horde of bees with its staff and commands them to attack. Blue puts a lapis lazuli in the staff making him float and the sticks fight. The bees were starting to sting the ghast making it frown and tear up, only The Second Coming to notice and spawn a bedrock helmet for it. The ghast then shoots fireballs at Queen Bee and kills her, making the bees fly towards in the beehive on the staff that Queen Bee was holding.

Red keeps the beehive, and then a shulker appears with a campfire staff, almost bursting the huge fire into Red but The Second Coming blocks it. Red on the floor jokingly brings a steve head staff up at Yellow and Blue, then Blue brings it down. Yellow with his staff freezes the shulker, then Blue with his staff grinds the ice blocks down and the shulker is gone. Suddenly, an axolotl with a lightning rod staff summons lightning bolts and attacks the sticks, but a lightning bolt strikes into the Steve head in the staff Red is holding, turning the head into a Herobrine head which makes Red float. He uses it to float and one-shot the axolotl giving them another staff which Blue collects. Suddenly, a bunch of mobs appears and the sticks fight, while Blue encounters a villager in a cauldron with a staff. The block changes into an anvil, but it is too heavy and the villager cannot lift it. Blue with the lightning rod staff strikes the villager away, and then a bunch of mobs appear. Blue with his brewing stand staff turns them into blocks, with a zombified piglin holding a sculk sensor staff distracts The Second Coming. He uses the sculk sensor staff which can sense sounds when there is a noise or danger near him, which saves him from a spider web that a polar bear shoots out with its staff. The polar bear jumps down and then shoots out cobwebs and sticks them to the sticks' staffs, but Green manages to uses a magma block and burns the polar bear, dropping down another staff, which Green collects. Yellow kills a wither skeleton which drops another staff and a wither skeleton skull and The Second Coming collects the staff. Suddenly, a cow with an end frame staff comes out of a portal and kicks the sticks into another portal which links into another portal falling down to Yellow. Then Green uses his cobweb staff to act like a grappling hook tries to get to the cow, but the cow keeps looping through portals. Green then grabs The Second Coming's bell staff which knocks the cow's staff away, and Green closes the portals together making the cow loop until the portals get too close, teleporting the cow to space. Then the sticks encounter a boat with an emerald staff which kicks. When the boat gets closer to The Second Coming, the sculk sensor again saves him and they were able to smash the boat over and over, defeating it and claiming its staff. They celebrate their success.

Suddenly, the ghast reaches a huge white lucky block revealing the sticks have reached the top. The temple has turned into a lucky block in a staff, the sticks manage to push the ghast down and they mine their way inside. Inside is the orb with a circling mess of blocks spawning staffs that collect different blocks, then the Orb creates a huge energy shock. The sticks fight the final boss. The Orb spawns an obsidian chunk, but The Second Coming bats it away with his bedrock staff. A wild battle soon begins, with the Orb using its staffs to attack the Stick Gang while they use the staffs they already have on their hands to deflect the Orb's attacks. Red and Blue use TNT and potion smoke to attack the Orb, but it protects itself with mushrooms and obsidian. Yellow tries to destroy the Orb's shield with the laser of his redstone block staff, but it's blocked by a wall, and Red manages to get the obsidian staff by throwing TNT at the shield thanks to Yellow severing it. Green uses his portals to deflect the Orb's wither head attack, and teleports The Second Coming to the other staffs to knock them away and weaken the Orb's defenses, but the Orb's shield rolls him away, and throws some blocks to the gang, but Blue turns the blocks into chests to encase some of the staffs. The Orb instantly gains the upper hand, and uses the piston staff to knock out The Second Coming, imprison him with Bedrock, and steal his staffs for itself, Blue tries to attack the Orb's staffs, but he is also imprisoned in Bedrock, Yellow attempts to attack via the redstone block staff's laser, but the Orb deflects it with a shield made of amethyst, Green is imprisoned as well after trying to attack and avoid the Orb. Red throws TNT and Herobrine heads to the Orb's shield through his staffs, but the Orb, using a cobweb staff, shoots cobweb at Red, rendering him nearly immobile, and when the Orb prepares to imprison him in bedrock, Yellow protects him via a barrier staff and uses barriers to protect himself from the Orb's attacks. When Yellow uses barriers to get to the Orb and his staff, the Orb swipes him away by the feet with two quartz blocks, and imprisons him in bedrock as well, Red cuts through the cobweb and, using his final attack, he uses his fishing rod to get the portal frame staff, the Orb unleashes various beams and fire charges, but Red opens portals to redirect them to the Orb's shield, and opens one final portal to throw the beehive through it before getting imprisoned in bedrock. When the beehive lands right next to the Orb and the staff, the Orb gets swarmed by Beeper and the bees. Beeper notices the Orb and looks at Red. When he nods at Beeper in approval, Beeper sacrifices itself and explodes in front of the Orb. Beeper's explosion causes the Orb and the blocks shield to fly away out of the fortress and neutralize the Orb's control, and the explosion's strength causes the Orb's fortress to slowly collapse. With the bedrock prisons of the Stick Gang being destroyed, Red finds the lucky block and Yellow finds his staff. They open the lucky block and the gang finally escapes the Lucky dimension via the block's portal before the block gets crushed by the falling debris.

Back at the computer, Red builds a grave for Beeper, mourning over its sacrifice and saluting his fallen pet before turning his attention to his friends, who are still angry at him for the wild journey he made them go through. A guilt-ridden Red decides to accept his punishment. Yellow lifts him with his staff and puts Red inside a barrier box with a bench inside it. Yellow closes the barrier box, putting Red in timeout for what he did and The Second Coming nods at Yellow for making Red learn his lesson for his actions, ending the episode.

Episode Thirty-Four - The Prank[]

Red invites The Second Coming to his house, then quickly tells TSC to sit, then gives him a bottle of juice. While TSC is drinking, Red rushes to the crafting table and crafts a cake, then places it onto a iron trapdoor and walks to the table while showing the cake to TSC. TSC is happy about the cake, so he finishes his juice, and grabs a piece of cake, while Red secretly puts a lever onto the table. Just after TSC takes a bite, Red activates the lever, causing the trapdoor to open and flings the cake towards TSC. TSC wasn′t able to dodge it in time and ended up with a cake to his face. Red, knowing his prank was a success, started to dance while TSC removes the cream from his face and looks at Red angrily.

Red then pranks Blue, and Yellow with schemes that both end with a cake to the face. However, when he tries to do the same to Green, he outsmarts him and prevents himself from being caked using his sword. Red is fustrated while Green pats him on the back and leaves.

What follows is a montage where Green effortlessly dodges all the cakes Red throws at him, some of these attempts backfiring onto Red.

  1. Green shows Blue something on his phone, then Red walks up to Green and throws another cake at him. Green ducks and the cake hits Blue.
  2. Red then makes a cake while Green passes by. Red asks Green to get him an egg from the chest (which is a "cake in the box"), Green brings the chest and opens it onto Red, making a cake hit him in the face.
  3. Green is fishing, while Red swims to the rod's bobber, sets a cake on it, and tugs it. Green reels it in, ducks it, and then swings it back towards Red.
  4. Green walks in the forest in the dark with a torch. He steps on a rope and was dragged up into the tree. Another rope sends an anvil down on the other side, then Red times when Green comes down and smacks Green with another cake, except it wasn't Green, but an armor stand with green wool as it's head. Red gets confused, then Green comes from the bushes and scares Red away, getting himself caked in the rear.
  5. Red sets a lever behind their couch. When Green passes by, Red immediately flicks the lever that drops a cake from the air, but Green freezes in place, allowing the cake to drop harmlessly onto the ground. Green then skips off, and Red punches the couch in anger.
  6. In their house, while Green is sleeping, Red walks slowly to Green holding another cake, and slams it on Green, but Green protects himself with barriers blocks surrounding him.
  7. Red uses Yellow's staff and puts a cake in it. As Green listens to music on his headphones, Red blasts out lots of cake onto him, but Green deflects them using a shield.
  8. Green mines two gold ores, but one of them exposes a hole for Red behind them. He throws another cake at Green, but Green blocks it by placing a cobblestone block in the way.
  9. Green stands in the desktop, while Red on the other side further away throws another cake at Green. But Green ducks, catches the thrown cake, then backflips and sends it towards Red.
  10. Red, while having a seat with Green, flicks the lever and activates the trapdoor with a cake (just like what he did to TSC). Expecting the cake to hit on Green, the cake hits Red instead.
  11. Red is seen defeated, punching the ground in anger, as another cake hit Green's armor stand after it got stuck in cobwebs in the floor.
  12. Red gets caked once again.
  13. Green pats Red condescendingly after another plan ended up with Red faceplanted on a cake.

Later, Red decides to directly throw cakes at Green, but he dodges those effortlessly before he and Red fall down a trap door. Green uses a fishing rod to stop himself from landing in a pile of cakes as Red lands on wool. Green continues to dodge the cakes pelted by Red and dispensers before getting Red to fall into his own trap, which is a chair surrounded by cakes. Later, Red explains his problem to Purple, telling him all of his failed plans and asking him how he can cake Green. Purple seems unable to help (using Red's thought plan to cake thought-Green and repeatedly failing), and as Red begins to sulk away sadly, Purple has an idea and comes up with a plan using aspects of Red's failed plans.

Red leads Green through a forest and prepares to take something out. Green thinks it is a cake and prepares himself, but it turns out to be an empty picnic basket. Green, confused, shakes the basket out, but finds nothing inside. Red then walks over to a chest. gets behind it, and opens it. Green braces for impact, using the basket for cover, but the chest turns out to be normal. Red takes out an apple, bread, a melon slice, and a sandwich and puts them into the basket. Green scratches his head, confused, and Red then walks over to a lever and offers Green to pull it. Green reaches out for it, but he, still suspicious of Red, steps away and tells Red to pull it himself. Red shrugs and pulls it, and out pops a bottle of water from a dispenser in the background. Red takes a sip and offers it to Green, but instead puts in his pocket and gives Green another water bottle from the dispenser. Red raises his arms and urges Green to continue. He does, and Red follows, secretly splashing a cow with a potion of awakening. The cow, now bipedal, follows stealthily in the background.

Red marches on, sipping from his bottle, and Green follows, hunched over and visibly nervous. Red steps on a pressure plate, causing a firework to launch from a dispenser below him. Green flinches and puts up a shield in self-defense, not seeing Red toss another potion onto a nearby chicken, causing it to become sentient as well. Red marches and skips on, while Green's anxiety hasn't wavered. He looks around as if he feels someone watching him. Red finds another chest and opens it. Green ducks, bracing for the worst, but with him distracted, Red splashes a sugarcane with a potion and grabs a blanket from the chest for their picnic. Red slings the blanket over his shoulder, and Green scurries after him, unaware of the sentient sugarcane following them.

The cow, chicken, and sugar cane spy on the strolling Red and paranoid Green as the Red pauses and urges Green to go on ahead while he folds the blanket. Green does as instructed, and Red drops another awakening potion on a wheat before hurrying off to join Green.

Upon finding a small clearing in the spruce forest, Red spreads out the picnic blanket, Green sets the basket down, and Red hands himself and Green various picnic foods and drinks, all the while the sentient plants and animals sneak around behind them. The two sticks indulge, albeit Green a lot more hesitantly, but upon sampling the sandwich, he finds it safe. Red gives him the green light and the two of them enjoy their picnic, the blocks and animals sneaking away into their position. With Green lulled into a false sense of security, Red sits on his knees, stretches out, takes a deep breath, and whistles.

Suddenly, the cow, chicken, sugarcane, and wheat leap onto the tree leaves around them. Using their combined wheat, sugar, milk, and eggs, they create a massive cake right above the picnic area. They raise it into the air and, with their combined forces, slam it into the ground. Green is barely able to avoid getting smashed by the giant cake by leaping out of the way. He breathes heavily, possibly traumatized, grabbing his heart, and stumbles away, but walks headfirst into a cake being held by Red. Green lets his arms hang, realizing he has been bested. Red turns and pats Green on the back, similar to how Green did to him, before walking away.

Episode Thirty-Five - Note Block Concert[]

Green walks into a concert with the audience of the Minecraft mobs. He holds a stick baton while a lectern appears, and he touches it several times with his stick. Then a note block also appears and it plays a note. The concert starts with Green singing. Then the curtain behind Green opens to reveal villagers wearing tuxedos with different musical instruments and Blue, Red, The Second Coming, and Yellow play music on more note blocks. Everyone makes a song with an incredible melody, then a note blocks set appears. Green continued to play piano music on said blocks. During the song a silverfish appears backstage. The silverfish crawls onto the stage and everyone looks in surprise. Green tries to coax it away and continue the performance, but it continues to crawl up the piano towards Green. As the song continues, the silverfish began jumping on the piano and making music, Green tries to stop it but it continues to stay on the piano. In frustration, Green continues to shoo the silverfish away and it finally leaves the piano in sadness, after which Green kicks the silverfish super hard. But the silverfish doesn't stop, and continues trying to play music for the audience, as it burrows underground and crawls to Green again. It begins tumbling from left to right on the piano with Green trying to catch it, in a rather musical melody.

After a while of the music being played from the chaos of the two of them, the lights turned back on, the orchestra resumes playing, and the audience applauds. Green briefly bows and then steals Yellow's drumstick for himself and continues trying to kill the silverfish, all while still in tune with the song. After a while of Green searching for the silverfish, it appears on the piano and Green finally catches it. Green sings the notes to the audience while holding the silverfish in his hands. Green then takes the note block staff out and uses it to conduct his performers, the orchestra. Shortly after, the silverfish frees itself from Green's hand and onto the piano again, the audience laughing at its antics. Green then comes across the silverfish again and uses his staff to try to shoot notes at it.

After the silverfish appears to have left the stage, Green continues his singing, until the silverfish reappears blowing into a goat horn making music. Green slowly approaches it and tries to hit it with his staff but it escapes. The silverfish then jumps onto the stage, steals Green's staff, and then starts using it, shooting and spitting out a bunch of notes. Green then starts trying to get his staff back, running and chasing the silverfish back and forth. Shortly after, suddenly hundreds of silverfish appear and they all crawl out like ants, through the seats and onto the stage. Everyone runs off the concert stage in panic, except for Green, who stands on his piano Note Blocks, as a bunch of silverfish crawl across the stage. After that, the silverfish holding the staff orders all the silverfish to attack Green. The silverfish begin to surround him, swarming the entire conductor and playing the other musical instruments to continue the music. The rest of the Stick Gang, however, watch from the side, and Red takes a picture with his cell phone. The silverfish also take the blocks used in this concert, creating chaos and also showing off their fondness for music.

In the chaos, on the other side, the sticks decide to create a band and play catchy music. The chaos stops, all the silverfish witness the band and dance along, even the audience enjoyed the music, despite Green urging them to stop. As the music continues, the silverfish unite to create an actual concert for real, while Green keeps trying to stop them from doing so. During a chase, a silverfish leapt on Green's back while another brought a cymbal. The one silverfish let go of Green, causing him to smash his face on the cymbal, falling on the ground. The music ends, and the crowd applauds. The Gang, minus Green, bows and congratulates each other, while Green sulks nearby, not willing to give up yet.

After the song ends, Green starts playing the song "Rush E," as four silverfish decide to play the piano. Green and the one silverfish both continue the song. The sticks in the back upgrade their band, and the next sequence is just a remix of "Rush E." Green and the silverfish shoot notes at each other, dancing against each other on the note blocks in the floor. Meanwhile, the silverfish in the back plot something to do and climb to the top of the concert. Green and the silverfish then start fighting each other, with Green using a diamond sword while the silverfish uses the staff. Then, the roof silverfish decide to drop note blocks on Green while everything goes with the music. Green manages to make his electric guitar thanks to one note block from the top and continues the music battle, while the silverfishes start building something out of stone on top. Later, Green finally takes the staff from his enemy and overblasts and totally destroys the stage with the staff. The two silverfish on top cut both chains holding the rocks they built on top and it falls down onto Green below, crushing him with a massive lookalike of a silverfish. The entire audience, plus Purple and King Orange, is absolutely shocked, but after a pause, the music resumes. The Gang, minus Green, continue playing and the audience applauds. The silverfish takes the staff, and while Green tries to get off, the silverfish places note blocks with their staff and plays them, at last. The sticks cheer at the silverfish, while Green crawls out of the rocks, before fainting and flopping onto the floor. The silverfish also gives a wink to the viewers and the screen goes into an iris out effect.

Episode Thirty-Six - Bedwars[]

Facilitated by the command block staff, the Fighting Stick Figures are playing a local game of Bedwars on ALANSPC, with Blue and Green on Team Cyan and Red and Yellow on Team Orange. Red is the first to reach the emerald generator and Team Cyan's island. He immediately attempts to break the bed, only to be thwarted by Green, who pushes him off the edge of the island to his death. Confused, Red is teleported back to the desktop, and respawns at his own island five seconds later, as he pets the Heroic Pig.

Chaotic fighting ensues in the match as both teams attempted to break each other's bed, but mostly to no avail. The deadlock is finally broken when Red destroys the Cyan bed during a battle on the island, and Blue is immediately killed by Yellow with a swift push. Blue is also teleported back to the desktop, only this time the text informs him that his bed has been destroyed and that he will no longer respawn.

As Red and Yellow close in on Green, the latter pulls out an ender pearl and teleports to the Orange island, and destroys the Orange bed before the two can stop him. In a display of skill, Green utilizes block placement and PvP skills to clutch the ensuing 1v2 and win the game for Cyan, much to Blue's ecstasy.

Back on the desktop, the stick figures discover a Twitch stream displaying an online match of Bedwars. Opening the Minecraft app, the four enter Hypixel, Minecraft's largest online community, and head straight into a Bedwars match with 4 teams of four. The sticks are placed in Team Red, and Blue excitedly instructs Yellow to purchase stone swords for everyone. The four encounter Team Green, consisting of players Lunsar, Sarlok_, Tince and Sprray, on the opposite island from them. However, the team were immediately pegged back upon reaching the middle emerald generator, as previous match-winner Green gets comboed and destroyed by Team Green players Sarlok_ and Lunsar. Red and Yellow were no better, and they too were subjected to the onslaught as their death messages appeared in the chatbox. Eager for revenge, Yellow returns to the emerald generator to collect resources, only to be met with a message informing the server that the Team Blue bed has been destroyed by Lunsar. Red and Green, already at the generator, can only watch on in horror as the Green players wipe out the Blue team; the Yellow team's demise followed shortly as they, too, are attacked and wiped by Team Green.

Realizing that they are the only remaining team, Yellow instructs the stick figures to regroup and attack the Green bed. Red, Green and Yellow reach the Green island and begin desperately hacking away at the Green bed, but are sent packing by the returning Green players, who repaired the bed with wool and prepared to face the three sticks, who have taken refuge at the top of the island. Green and Yellow are the first to jump downwards, only to again be slaughtered by the much more skilful Green players. It transpired, however, that the two are a mere distraction for Team Green, as Red followed suit, jumped down and broke the Green bed before the Team Green duo can return. Red, however, meets the same fate as his two teammates as he is also knocked off the edge by Team Green, respawning back at base.

Blue ramming with iron swords

With the momentum now on Team Green's side, the four players mount an attack on the Red island. Equipped with iron swords, the Fighting Stick Figures attempt to put up a fight, but are no match for the TNT dropped on the island, and the Red bed is destroyed in the chaos. Red charges forward, but is no match for Team Green as he is killed and eliminated from the match; Green and Yellow are also eliminated in the battle. With his team reduced to one final player, Blue is on the verge of giving up, throwing his sword towards the Green players in an act of desperation. Instead of hitting the ground, the sword strikes a Green player and deals damage. Realizing that he can use his animated powers even in the online match, Blue begins leaping around with his iron sword, repeatedly striking the powerless Green players in mid-air and single-handedly taking out the entire team, earning the stick figures their first victory, and resetting Team Green's incredible 98 win-streak to 0.

Following the win, the Fighting Stick Figures go on a rampage throughout Hypixel, terrorizing Bedwars lobbies and winning match after match, even causing ripples in the YouTube community as streamers and YouTubers alike encountered—and subsequently lost to—the four sticks. The montage ends with the stick figures closing in on a milestone, winning 99 games in a row and needing just one more triumph to reach the coveted 100 win-streak.

Team Green are once again the stick figures' opponents in the final match. In an act of vengeance, they boot up a cheat client, which enables Team Green to fly, obtain infinite items, move with hyper-velocity, bridge at superhuman speed and auto-hit any incoming foes without looking at them. The sticks immediately come to this revelation in their first encounter, as Green, who is launched up towards his opponents by the other three stick figures, gets annihilated by Team Green, who are auto-clicking at insane speeds and blatantly cheating. Red and Blue spread out towards the Team Blue and Team Yellow bases respectively, which have both surrendered to Team Green. The Green players wasted no time in flying towards their stick opponents and stopping them in their tracks, but are deceived and confounded by the two, who zoomed past their defenders through stealth tactics and blocking.

Back at the Red island, Green is seen abusing the villager in the shop for battle items by shaking him, as Yellow prepares to meet the Green attackers head-on. Despite their best efforts, however, the two were unable to prevent Team Green from breaking the Red bed. Thankfully, Blue successfully evades a Green defender with the aid of an iron golem, landing in the Green base and blowing up the bed defense with TNT for Red to break in, evening up the scoreline.

The two teams square up for a final encounter on the central island, as Lunsar instructs his team to attack in sync. The stick figures, with the aid of fireballs, blocks and another iron golem, initially fends off the quadruplet, with Red even managing to melt half the HP of a Green player with a deftly-executed TNT throw. Both teams consume golden apples to regenerate, but this proves useless to Green, who is attacked by an opponent and nearing certain death; Blue comes to his aid, and together with Red and the now-rejuvenated Green, the trio strike Team Green player Sprray and eliminate him from the game. Despite drawing first blood, Green is caught between Sprray's surviving teammates Sarlok_ and Tince, and is also dominated and wiped from the match. Yellow barely escapes his surrounding opponents only to be halted by an ambush at the top of the central tower; as he is about to lose his final heart from the onslaught of Green players, sudden death kicks in and spawns an ender dragon for both teams. This proves to be his saving grace, as with half-a-heart remaining Yellow is pushed away from his attackers towards the safety of Red and Blue. The Green players slay the Red Ender Dragon rapidly, but Red manages to use the Green dragon to his team's advantage, slamming it into Tince and killing him instantly. Yellow is knocked off from the Green Ender Dragon after a fireball from Sarlok_, becoming his 2,866th final kill. Enraged, Blue slays Sarlok_ with a bow, but Red is lost at the hands of Lunsar.

Blue and Lunsar begin the final showdown, as both players go down to half-a-heart. Just as Blue is about to strike Lunsar and win the game, a message appears in the chat announcing the arrival of Partypooper101, a server moderator, accidentally blocking Blue's wooden sword.

Blue and Lunsar awkwardly stare at the moderator before both, in anti-climactic fashion, are permanently banned off of Hypixel for cheating and suspicious activity. The four are dropped back onto ALANSPC, where The Second Coming and the Heroic Pig approach them; the latter half-heartedly throws a crown onto the stick pile.
