Trivia[]

  • Episode 3 of Blades in the Dark was the first Surprise Round show to air according to the weekly schedule and notification posted in the announcement channel of the Surprise Round discord server.
  • The VOD for episode 6 was briefly lost due to Twitch failing to archive a number of streams, causing them to disappear after 2 weeks. Luckily, a Surprise Round fan had downloaded a copy of the stream and was eventually able to transfer it to Lamp for re-upload.
