A notorious team known as the Leptons are the worst, yet its youngest member, an orphan named Ace, tries to remain optimistic about winning. Meanwhile, Gaz Digzy, a famous member of the Boom Boom Boys, has grown bored of her fame and decides to party hard resulting in her arrest, rehab, getting kicked off the team and earning a severe muffin-top. Crayzar has her join the Leptons and promises her to give her team back if she can win one game with them, much to her chagrin.
season 1 -
Ace is overjoyed at Gaz joining the Leptons as he is a fan of hers, but she berates and looks down on them for their poor skills. Babyball, the team's ball member, presents Gaz with the prospect of working together to leave the team. As the Leptons battle the Murderous Misfits, Gaz and Babyball intentionally harm their team angering and upsetting Ace who insults Gaz. Angered at being insulted, she, in turn, tosses Babyball so hard that he and Ace fuse and take out the opposing team, but accidentally score in the other goal. Nevertheless, the audience is enthralled by this development and Ace hugs an annoyed Gaz. After the successful fusion, dubbed Ballmaster, Buddy Marinara, the Leptons' manager, has Ace and Babyball challenge Xythryll, a mutated chinchilla that resides at an abandoned factory. Gaz once again belittles the two for not knowing how to fuse so they decide to go and meet Crayzar. Crayzar reveals that years ago, Ballmasters would battle during the Rad Wars. When the war ended, Crayzar collected the leftover balls and gave life to them as game balls believing that the time of the Ballmasters was over. He tells them that Ace and Babyball need to synchronize their personalities. They successfully do so, but accidentally release Xythryll angering the audience. Ace is addicted to playing the video game To Catch a Princess. During a playthrough, he meets Luna who offers to meet with Ace in real life at the Rad Wars Memorial Park. He takes Babyball along, as his avatar looks like the two combined, but Luna turns out to be the leader of the rival team the Ashigari Princesses who threaten the two into revealing their secret to becoming Ballmaster. Gaz herself gets addicted to the game and forgets Ace and Babyball until Leto informs her. The Leptons arrive and rescue Ace and Babyball who fuse and defeat Luna and her team. After celebrating their victory, Ace sadly "releases" Luna from his game. The Leptons are hit with a stink bomb that ruins their night. Gaz reveals that the bomb came from a fan of hers named Dieter who became so obsessed with her that the Boom Boom Boys tossed him into a power plant turning him into a stink being. After being hit with more stink bombs, Gaz hires Stinkfinger of the Murderous Misfits to help them acclimate to the stench. They eventually face off against the Pups, use their stink immunity to their advantage and take out Dieter who was watching. While the Leptons manage to make a point, the game gets cancelled due to too much stinkiness. Crayzar watches the outcome with intrigue and the Leptons all give each other a bath. On Holo-Card Day, the Leptons get new Holo-Cards including a hungover Gaz. When Ace reveals that he owns a rare Gaz Boom Boom Rookie Card, that notoriously looks like she is about to give a blowjob, Gaz reveals that she bought up all remaining cards and left them with her ex, criminal Jojo Cracko. Due to their worth, Gaz, Ace and Babyball all head to his estate and battle the security head, Yukioi, and several robots. Jojo is revealed to live in fear of Gaz, having put a restraining order on her, and gives the Holo-Cards back with Gaz actually complimenting Ace for once. However, Gaz learns on the news that her new card is just as embarrassing as the old one. While travelling through the desert, the Leptons stop to refuel and accidentally disturb a biker gang called the Middle Fingers. The group gets into a fight and Dee Dee displays violent behaviour that impresses their leader Bacchus LaBrute. When Leto denies that Dee Dee is his girlfriend, she angrily "dumps" him and decides to stay with the Middle Fingers. Leto admits that he feels empty without Dee Dee and the Leptons have him confront Bacchus, who challenges Leto to a bike race. Ace and Babyball fuse into a motorcycle, Leto races Bacchus and defeats him. When he tries to kill Leto, Dee Dee comes to his aid and rejoins the Leptons with Leto wanting to take things slow. After losing against the Choo Choo Chums, the Leptons quickly ditch Ace after he suggests volunteering at the animal shelter. Ace sneaks in some B.E.H.O. for the animals, but hides it in his mouth, accidentally eating it. He ends up liking it and gets hooked on binge eating B.E.H.O.'s nonstop especially after Gaz ditches him again. Ace quickly takes his frustrations out on the Choo Choo Chums and the Leptons learn about Ace's addiction. Ace begins transforming into a hideous monster and swallows his team. While inside, Gaz admits to Ace that they are his friends and promises to go to the animal shelter with him. Ace returns to normal and the Leptons, reluctantly, concede. Gaz decides to finally lose her beer belly, so Babyball makes a bet with her, if Gaz wins, he sews his mouth shut, but if he wins, Gaz must streak naked. Gaz has Flip train her so that she can reacquire her abs. During her training, Babyball gets a sponsorship with Offal Ale to throw off Gaz resulting in her making a side bet, she will go sober until game day and Babyball will be her servant for a month. Gaz cheats on her training and studies Flip's scrolls. While this seems to work at first, she loses her abs and decides to save face by streaking naked. The Leptons lose, but Gaz was sober so Babyball lost the side bet and ends up being her servant, losing the sponsorship in the process. The Leptons record a rap song for their final game against Gaz's former team, the Boom Boom Boys. Feeling humiliated, Gaz takes their recording and drowns her sorrows at a bar. She runs into her former teammates and leaves in frustration, dropping the recording in the process. When the Boom Boom Boys hear it, they decide to "help" her by playing it for them at their game. Gaz returns to the Leptons with the team preparing for defeat. However, when the Leptons hear their song, they think that Gaz was actually getting help from them and they suddenly gain a boost in confidence that makes them finally win their first game by one point. Crayzar offers Gaz a new team, but she asks for a beer instead.
season 2 -
Following their win, the Leptons enter a string of successes and earn numerous fan letters (some of which are dick pics). Ace, however, is sad because he does not have any close family to share his wins. To get him out of his depression, Gaz and Babyball create two robots who pretend to be his long-lost parents. The rest of the team reluctantly goes along with it as Ace happily spends the day with his "parents" who slowly grow concerned with his easily injurable body. The Robo parents take Ace to a maintenance closet and announce their plan to convert him. The rest of the Leptons hear his cries and rush to save him. Despite this, Ace does not want to kill his "parents" but is forced to do so as Ballmaster. He admits that the Leptons are his family now. Gaz suddenly grows a small joke spewing head from her belly called the Blab, which is apparently a sexually transmitted disease. She has to appear on Obah Wexley's show the next day and sees a doctor, who turns out to be Crayzar. He tells them that they need to feed the Blab a special root to get rid of it. Ace and Babyball fly off to get it and feed it in time for the show, but the root needs to digest. Gaz puts on a one-piece dress to hide the Blab who still talks. She uses Leto's sock to create a puppet dubbed "Little Gaz" and explains that she is trying to vent her negative emotions. While it seems that things are a disaster, Obah announces that Gaz's guest spot is a success. The Leptons celebrate, but Gaz refuses to disclose who she slept with as the Blab dies. Babyball solemnly wishes he could have a body and Crayzar grants his wish; giving him a large muscular body. This results in Babyball becoming nicer and jovial with everyone because he has a heart now. However, it quickly becomes apparent that this weakens his ability on the field; ironically causing Ace to become harsher and angrier with him. Gaz takes Babyball to a bar to toughen him up, but this fails spectacularly. During another game, the whole team is wiped out and Ace and Babyball fuse into Ballmaster with the latter "dangling...like a giant nutsack". Babyball beheads himself so that they can perform properly and win the game. Crayzar informs Babyball that he shares his heart with Ace who is his best friend. Babyball denies this, insults Ace and takes the team out to the bar with Crayzar comforting Ace. Gaz is at a dive bar and picks up a man named Bergdorf Sanguine who turns out to be a vampire. Later, she tries to suck Ace's blood for "the master", but is stopped by the rest of the Leptons. Bergdorf returns and takes Gaz away. Dee Dee reveals that she is a former vampire hunter, or rather pest exterminator when she was trying to pay off her student loans and she, Ace and Babyball head off to battle Bergdorf and his monster army, which they manage to do in spectacular fashion as Ballmaster. Gaz has been made Bergdorf's maid and is forced to clean up after him. Dee Dee and Ace manage to get through to Gaz who snaps out of her hypnosis and together they kill Bergdorf. Afterwards, Dee Dee angrily tells Gaz to stop picking up shadowy figures in dive bars while hammered and Gaz drunkenly agrees by asking more men out. The Leptons must do work with the Wish Program by getting visited by a boy named Rudy Drax, who suffers from a loss of appendages. He idolizes Flip, but he insensitively insults the boy, activating the sensitivity sensors in the stadium (and confusing Gaz and Babyball who wonder why they never activated them). Crazyar teleports Flip away for sensitivity training through virtual scenarios, but he turns out to be too much of jerk. Meanwhile, Rudy sees Flip's room and absorbs his appendages, before defeating the Leptons in anger. As Flip is placed in a final reality-altering scenario, he returns and finally apologizes for his behaviour, causing Rudy to implode. The Leptons are confused as Rudy was real and not a simulation. The virtual scenario tore a fabric in time and accidentally disintegrated Rudy, much to Crayzar and his team's horror. After winning another game, the Leptons all take hallucinogenic drugs, except for Ace who is too young. They all get the munchies, so Leto makes the team some grilled cheese sandwiches. To everyone's astonishment, the sandwiches are amazing and they suggest that he get on Crayzar's other show, Gourmet Gamers. Leto refuses as he is afraid of embarrassing himself. Nevertheless, Dee Dee tells Leto that he needs to toughen up and signs him on the show; leaving him completely out of his comfort zone. As his fellow chefs all get into a fight, Leto finds himself tossed through a series of humiliating tasks, much to everyone's amusement. Leto eventually gets the strength to finish through Dee Dee's support. His sandwich appears burnt and inedible, but Leto ends up winning when the judges are left speechless, thanks to the drugs. When Gaz and Dee Dee see Bob giving a flower to Lulu, they assume that the two of them are in love and decide to play matchmaker. They doll up Lulu and set her up on a date with Bob. The rest of the Leptons apparently had the same idea as they try to feed Bob advice. Things get out of hand as Gaz and Dee Dee try to shift to different venues so that the two of them can establish a romance. Upon seeing Gaz and Dee Dee working closely with one another, Leto begins to assume that the two are in a relationship. Eventually, Lulu gets tired of listening to Gaz and Dee Dee's advice, as well as their arguments, and decides to be herself resulting in gaining an audience and accidentally destroying a club. Later, Gaz and Dee Dee realize that Bob was just returning the flower to Lulu after she dropped it. They then decide to spy on Bob instead. The Leptons are approached by Milky van Montebag, a flashy manager who offers to pay them. He begins putting emphasis on Ace for his innocent appearance and soon Ace-mania begins taking the Consortium by storm. The rest of the Leptons become annoyed as Ace's newfound fame resulting in Gaz confronting him. She reveals that she was once part of a wealthy family and joined the Game to find excitement. Managers took advantage of her and she spiraled into drugs, resulting in her going to rehab and leading to what became of her today; a change she is actually proud of. Ace ignores her and the Leptons kidnap him and follow Milky to a sweat house full of workers made up of Lulu's species. The Leptons battle Milky and his robots and free the workers. However, Ace still has strong feelings for his fame, much to the annoyance of the team. The Leptons prepare to go up against Bad Omen, a demonic team in the big finals. Ace, still overly confidant and egotistical, declares that he can defeat the team on his own as Ballmaster which everyone agrees to as the rival team comes off as intimidating and scary. Gaz is none too proud of Ace's behaviour, but the team comes together on game day. Most of the Leptons are wiped out, but Ace and Babyball become Ballmaster and wipe out the other players, but he becomes angered at Gaz and begins fighting her. Crayzar mentally speaks to Gaz to take up her role as leader and she and Ace fight resulting in him severely injuring her. He comes to his senses and together they are able to defeat Bad Omen's leader Vorelord and win the Game 2-1. As the Leptons celebrate their newfound victory and glory, Crayzar is pleased with Gaz and Ballmaster. The Leptons are given the grand trophy by Crayzar who makes Ballmaster MVP, though Ace credits Gaz for being his inspiration. Gaz is confronted by her father Rupert T. Digzfield IV who wants her to return to the family business; having bought the Leptons when she joined and threatens to break the team-up. Six months later, Gaz is pampered by her family, though she takes the time to still watch the Leptons who are still winning games. Suddenly, the city is attacked by aliens and Crayzar reveals that the Game was not just to keep the peace, but also to train warriors who will defend the earth and the galaxy from invaders. Gaz leaves home, with her father getting killed by the aliens, and races back to the city where she happily rejoins the Leptons. The city is revealed to be a ship and Crazyar takes the Leptons and the other teams into space.
