- (2:23) The tribute says Gnomonkey has some of the hottest takes in Old School but that no player is more passionate about the game or cares more about its health and future; it says he 'draws the line' with Jagex and does not give an inch.

Inferno

Tombs of Amascut

- (0:55) The tribute says Gnomonkey helped players step into raids for the first time and eased their frustration with nerfs, and that during the release of Tombs of Amascut he found ways to make the fights bearable and broke mechanics down so everyday PvMers could do deep invocation levels.
