    Hello, fellow Marvel fans! I hope you are enjoying The Falcon and the Winter Soldier.

    Disney+ / Marvel

    Happy Episode 3 day!

    Now, you may or may not have been keeping up with the ads for the series — but I'm willing to bet you missed a little Easter egg in a recent ad that I only noticed courtesy of a TikTok from @perfect.dodge.

    As @perfect.dodge points out, in an Xbox ad for the series, Anthony Mackie (aka Falcon and the TRUE Captain America) plays video games with an employee. Pretty standard stuff for a commercial.

    employee says Sam probably does awesome stuff like this all the time, then asks if he's been in a car chase — Sam says he flies

    But THEN, the employee identifies his gaming handle to Sam. And...guess what it is? NOOBMASTER69!!

    employee says his gamer tag is Noobmaster69 — when Sam shoots him a look, he explains that his cousin made it

    Is it just me, or does he look like a Thor cosplayer??

    That's right — the very same Noobmaster69 that was bothering Korg in Avengers: Endgame.

    Korg says that the kid on the TV called him a dickhead again, and Thor says "Noobmaster" dramatically

    Which, of course, caused Thor to exchange some choice words with him.

    Thor says it's him again, the God of Thunder, and then threatens noobmaster, saying he'll come down to the basement he hides in and rip off his arms and shove them up his butt

    This actually isn't the first time we've seen Noobmaster in the flesh. As @perfect.dodge points out, he actually appeared in Captain America: The Winter Soldier as an Apple employee! His IRL name is Aaron.

    Here's hoping Noobmaster makes another appearance in the MCU and faces off, once and for all, with Thor.

    Thor 5: Noobmaster? Could we use another Guardian??
