The Vicious Cycle of X

The Vicious Cycle of X is a recent trend in Team Fortress 2 and Gary’s Mod Machinima. The basic formula for these videos goes like this;

1) choose a stage from Team Fortress 2

2) Watch how each of the characters and classes interact, which class beats which most often.

3) When that gets boring just do the rest by taking as many random sequential pictures in Gary’s Mod as you have the patience for, making sure that you kill off all of the classes in any convoluted way you can think of.

4) Put the whole thing to the music from Rabbids Go Home Music, Bãtutã Din Moldova.
