Can’t get enough Critical Role after finishing Season 1 of The Mighty Nein or getting all caught up on Campaign 4? Don’t worry, we’ve got you covered.
In the latest episode of Mashable’s Say More interview series, Mashable Entertainment Reporter Belen Edwards tasks Critical Role cast members Laura Bailey, Taliesin Jaffe, Ashley Johnson, Matthew Mercer, Liam O’Brien, Marisha Ray, Sam Riegel, and Travis Willingham with a daunting mission. They must draft teams of player characters from their first three Dungeons & Dragons campaigns to square off in the ultimate Critical Role battle royale. That means usual allies and even romantic pairings like Keyleth (Ray) and Vax (O’Brien) could be going up against each other in a no-holds-barred fight to the finish.
For this edition of Choose Your Squad, the rules are simple: Once you choose a character, they’re off the board for good. Try not to choose your own characters unless you absolutely have to, and most importantly, try to have a good time. Just kidding — crush your opponents in any way you see fit!
Which PC will be the first pick in the Critical Role draft, and are they the same PC O’Brien believes to be the obvious choice? Most importantly, is there any world in which Bertrand Bell (Willingham) doesn’t get picked last? (Sorry, Bertrand.)
Watch the video above to find out, and let us know which Critical Role squad you think would take the win.
The Mighty Nein Season 1 is now streaming on Prime Video.
