From Homestar Runner Wiki
"I'm pretty sure they're gonna stick close to my vision."
"Whoa! They FINALLY listened to me!"
Ultimate Strong Bad is an evolved, futuristic, mutated version of Strong Bad imagined by Strong Bad for use in SBCG4AP. He carries a Big Knife, has extremely ripped muscles an a mutated The Cheat on a chain leash, and dons robot pants instead of Strong Bad's regular pants. Originally, Ultimate Strong Bad was just a drawing of Strong Bad for "concept art", and this paper is much more prominent in the Homestar Runner Body of Work.
Strong Bad imagined the concept way early into the development, as far back as SBCG4AP Advertisement, and submitted it to Telltale Games as "concept art", assuring everyone that "they would stick close to his vision." When Strong Bad got his Developer's Blog, he posted his outrage at Telltale Games for not using the art at all in the first four episodes. He finally loses it in Behind The Bad Chapter 3: The Last Straw and throws the concept art at one Telltale employee, who simply smiles and says "Oh, yeah." Sure enough, Ultimate Strong Bad finally got his debut in 8-Bit is Enough.
In 8-Bit is Enough, Strong Bad transforms into Ultimate Strong Bad near the end of the game, with the Trog-Sword becoming his Big Knife. He's very happy about the transformation, but his joy is cut short when ULTIMATE TROGDOR appears behind him. Ultimate Strong Bad must use his party members and his sword effectively to defeat the nightmarish Trogdor, who then causes the dungeon to collapse, with Ultimate Strong Bad and Homestar narrowly escaping with their lives.
Ultimate Strong Bad appears yet again in Trogdor's 3D-ungeon, where he appears on-screen to kill ULTIMATE TROGDOR if the player loses the game.
