The Dethroning of Snowgrave is an ongoing conflict on Canvas 93. An alliance of four major factions, The Ember Empire, Neuro-sama's Swarm, osu!, and FURU Pxls, conducted a raid on Distance's "King of Snowgrave" artwork. The attack was organized by the Ember Empire's leader, Selio, and began on the evening of September 16. Volunteers from Flandre and the Rose Khanate came to the defense of the Snowgrave art shortly after.
Though somewhat slowed by the defenders, the raiders progressed at a steady pace on the first two days of the war. As fighting progressed, unaffiliated volunteers joined both sides of the conflict, but mainly the attackers. By the 18th, defense of Snowgrave had largely collapsed.
Critics of the Snowgrave art claim that it is oversized and looks ugly due to excessive fiddle abuse. These sentiments form the primary motivation for the raid. Pxls culture has long stigmatized fiddled art, which likely contributed to the raiders' support among the wider Pxls community.
Defenders of the art claim that the fiddle abuse is an intentional artistic choice, and thus the art's unpopularity is unwarranted. The Slim Fiddle faction, which specializes in fiddled art as an aesthetic, is not the first group on Pxls to utilize the concept. Lake Fairy Crew made a similar art piece only four canvases prior.
