The '''Troll Face War '''was a major war that took place over the course of 40 days on [[Canvas 41]]. It was the largest war on Pxls.space since the invasion of [[Pixeltugal]] on [[Canvas 29]]; no single conflict has reached its scale since. On one side was the [[League of Factions]], acting in defense of [[Pride Faction]], and on the other side was [[The Trollface Coalition]], consisting of users from [[Troll Face War#Trollfacer Side (The Trollface Coalition)|multiple Discord servers]], [[2ch]], and [[4chan on Pxls|4chan]]. The conflict started with a plan to cover Pride Faction's template with a troll face, which manifested in many serious attacks. Roughly 440 accounts were confirmed to have participated over the course of the entire war, including multiple alts. | |||
Throughout the conflict, the battles ratcheted up in intensity until a decline in tensions between October 24th and November 1st, at which point a very large attack force invaded the Pride template. The [[Operation Iris|resulting battle]] lasted 9 hours and resulted in the ultimate LOF victory over the troll facers. However, the subsequent [[Night Raid (Troll Face War)|night attack]] by Russian trollfacers surprised the League and the Pride forces, allowing the trollface to be rebuilt. Due to pressure from [[YOIB]], the LOF agreed to a peace deal; however, this deal was continuously violated by many members of the Trollface Coalition. They [[Lira conflict|griefed the relocated Pride template]] until the leaders of Pride announced a temporary break in Pxls projects. | |||
The trollfacers also refused to honor an agreement with YOIB to move their troll face so that Yoibers could construct a "World Gachi Day" template over the original face. As a result, YOIB and the LOF jointly launched [[Operation Crux|Operation Crux/Jabroni]] to cover the trollface which resulted in the area being taken on November 4th. The remaining trollfacers moved to create their second face. | |||
[[Trump 2020 Battles|Griefs against the Trump 2020 sign]], which was built by many of the trollfacers, and griefs against LOF possessions, continued until the most severe attack (a [[Cursed Clan raid (Troll Face War)|raid by trollfacers]] against [[Cursed Clan]]) occurred on November 22nd. Later that day, the League of Factions started an [[Gyarados Raid|invasion of the new trollface]], successfully covering it up with a rainbow version of the pokemon Gyarados. The trollfacers surrendered on November 22nd; however, there was a raid by some trollfacers on the main LOF logo shortly before the canvas reset the following day. When the canvas reset, the war was considered over. | |||
The conflict started with the Troll Face War continued through [[Canvas 42]], and arguably until [[Canvas 47]], due to the [[2ch Pride Raids]] and [[2ch–LOF Wars]], respectively. | |||
At the moment, a documentary is being made about the entire conflict. Current Progress is unknown. | |||

The troll facers flattened Pride resistance, and the LoF rushed into the conflict with not enough troops, leading to a defeat for the Pride-LoF side. This was the first time the trollface was fully completed. The defenders later reorganized and waged a 9-hour counterattack--resisted vigorously by both [[The Trollface Coalition]] and [[2ch]]--to retake the template.

The LoF accepted, and soon [[Operation Crux]] (known by YOIB as Operation Jabroni) began.

A group of trollfacers attacked [[Cursed Clan]] on November 22nd, eventually being repelled.

They had been given advance permission from YOIB to launch the incursion as the new trollface was situated in their territory. After the attack, a small LOF logo was built that overlapped the planned borders of some YOIB artworks, so it was modified as necessary.

The Troll Face War was a major war that took place over the course of 40 days on Canvas 41. It was the largest war on Pxls.space since the invasion of Pixeltugal on Canvas 29; no single conflict has reached its scale since. On one side was the League of Factions, acting in defense of Pride Faction, and on the other side was The Trollface Coalition, consisting of users from multiple Discord servers, 2ch, and 4chan. The conflict started with a plan to cover Pride Faction's template with a troll face, which manifested in many serious attacks. Roughly 440 accounts were confirmed to have participated over the course of the entire war, including multiple alts.
Throughout the conflict, the battles ratcheted up in intensity until a decline in tensions between October 24th and November 1st, at which point a very large attack force invaded the Pride template. The resulting battle lasted 9 hours and resulted in the ultimate LOF victory over the troll facers. However, the subsequent night attack by Russian trollfacers surprised the League and the Pride forces, allowing the trollface to be rebuilt. Due to pressure from YOIB, the LOF agreed to a peace deal; however, this deal was continuously violated by many members of the Trollface Coalition. They griefed the relocated Pride template until the leaders of Pride announced a temporary break in Pxls projects.
The trollfacers also refused to honor an agreement with YOIB to move their troll face so that Yoibers could construct a "World Gachi Day" template over the original face. As a result, YOIB and the LOF jointly launched Operation Crux/Jabroni to cover the trollface which resulted in the area being taken on November 4th. The remaining trollfacers moved to create their second face.
Griefs against the Trump 2020 sign, which was built by many of the trollfacers, and griefs against LOF possessions, continued until the most severe attack (a raid by trollfacers against Cursed Clan) occurred on November 22nd. Later that day, the League of Factions started an invasion of the new trollface, successfully covering it up with a rainbow version of the pokemon Gyarados. The trollfacers surrendered on November 22nd; however, there was a raid by some trollfacers on the main LOF logo shortly before the canvas reset the following day. When the canvas reset, the war was considered over.
The conflict started with the Troll Face War continued through Canvas 42, and arguably until Canvas 47, due to the 2ch Pride Raids and 2ch–LOF Wars, respectively.
At the moment, a documentary is being made about the entire conflict. Current Progress is unknown.

While many Pride and LoF members were sleeping, a group of trollfacers rebuilt the troll face to somewhat light resistance. Peace talks restarted, leading to a non-aggression agreement and allowing Pride to build its template somewhere else--over the Turkish lira. However, the treaty faced immediate problems as 2ch rejected it and a large section of the other trollfacers followed Pride to their new location, spearheading continual attacks. Finally, Pride Faction announced that due to stress and it being so close to the US presidential election, they would temporarily stop Pxls projects. The League of Factions pulled out shortly after the announcement, effectively ending this stage of the war.
YOIB-Trollfacer conflict- Nov. 3
The last nail in the coffin for the peace deal arrived between the days of November 3rd and 4th. YOIB started to cover the background near the finished trollface with their own art, intending to move the face somewhere else as had been agreed by the trollfacers. However, trollfacers went back on their word, refusing to let YOIB cover the trollface, but accepting a copy being built within YOIB territory.
Operation Crux/Jabroni - Nov. 4
This angered YOIB, who already included covering the trollface with their arts to their plans and ceded Luigi Panda territory; however, any actions to single-handedly make it deemed generally unsuccessful. YOIB began to reach out to other groups, including the League of Factions, to strike back and cover the trollface. The LoF accepted, and soon Operation Crux (known by YOIB as Operation Jabroni) began. After facing fairly light resistance compared to what they were used to, the joint attack steamrolled the trollface. What remained of the trollfacers began to redesign the copy built in YOIB territory.
Skirmishes - Nov. 4-22
Griefs continued against the Trump 2020 sign, which was built by many of the trollfacers. The LOF logo was also griefed. However, the most major raid took place on November 22nd.
Cursed Clan attack and Gyarados raid - Nov. 22
A group of trollfacers attacked Cursed Clan on November 22nd, eventually being repelled. Later in the day, the League of Factions launched an operation to place a Pride Faction template over the new trollface, which was successful after about 3 hours of fighting. They had been given advance permission from YOIB to launch the incursion as the new trollface was situated in their territory. After the attack, a small LOF logo was built that overlapped the planned borders of some YOIB artworks, so it was modified as necessary. Multiple pride flags were also built in the area, but YOIB, which is generally very opposed to creating flags, removed them.
Final griefs - Nov. 23
Some 2chers and other trollfacers made persistent attempts to rebuild the trollface on the day of the reset, but the LOF's guard groups were able to repel them from making any serious progress. Shortly before the reset itself, Pride Faction made a push to build its own pride flags in YOIB territory; at the same time, some troll facers griefed the main LOF logo with magenta. Once the canvas reset, the war was considered effectively over by all major parties involved.
Aftermath
On Canvas 42, 2ch and its supporters, including some of the remnants of the Trollface Coalition, started two major raids on Pride Faction's art. Both were repelled by the LOF.
Analysis
Groups involved
Trollfacer Side (The Trollface Coalition)
All Hail the Troll Empire
-- BennoVonArent/Senca the Younger/SENECAtheINFANT, leader of the Popvlares
- Pxls Peaceful Protest: The main raid server for the Discord volunteers. Approximately 115 members. Spawned several subgroups which are detailed below.
- Trollistan: A subgroup closely aligned with the main raid server that messed around on the site and served as extra troops for the Coalition. "We did it for the laughs"- ghast, leader of trollistan.
- Trollface Peaceful Protest: A distraction/trick server that was meant to lure in Pride members and defenders so they could be "boofed".
- Taco Bell Clan: Another subgroup; its exact purpose and size are generally unknown.
- Popvlares: A Discord server with around 360 users that formed a pillar of the attacking group. Described itself as "eternally supportive of the troll-empire."
- 2ch: A decent chunk of 2chers were recruited to join the raids late in the war, starting with the Fifth Battle of The Trollface and taking an active role from then on.
- 4chan: During at least two of the trollface battles, the attackers turned to 4chan as a measure of gaining reinforcements to stop a counterattack. Later, they directly recruited from 4chan in order to grow their numbers starting during Operation Iris. It is unknown exactly how many people came from 4chan to help the trollfacers; its likely that only a small amount of placers originated from the site. Despite this, the trollfacers are often correlated with 4chan.
