Mark McConville (born: March 29, 2002 (2002-03-29)), better known online as LS Mark (also known as Splash Dash, formerly known as Immortal Resurrection), is a Northern Irish YouTuber known for his opinionated commentary about people, popular culture, and television. Mark was rather known for his videos on Butch Hartman, the animated story-time community, and Quinton Reviews.

Content

Mark started his channel at the age of 12 as "Immortal Resurrection" in 2014. His earliest accessible uploads were a series of gaming videos, where he played the mobile port of Sonic The Hedgehog 1 for the Sega Genesis/Mega Drive, which would later be unlisted somewhere around 2018. Mark then went on to doing drawing and pixel art tutorials, the channel was renamed "LS Mark" sometime around 2015, (He still uses his older channel name ImmortalResurrection in the link) Mark would produce his first "commentary" video when he uploaded his review for Sonic The Hedgehog. Mark continued making reviews and eventually began to make commentary on the Sonic games. Mark's old Sonic videos are now unlisted, but some users saved nearly all of the old LS Mark videos, In 2020, he made a second channel called "SplashDash" for making Sonic videos.

On March 26, 2018, Mark uploaded a video on Butch Hartman. It quickly spiked in popularity, currently sitting at almost 300,000 views. The video received a mixed reception. He quickly became a commentator, presumably due to this newfound viewership. However, due to too much negativity in the community, Mark decided to stop making commentary videos and privatized as well as unlisted his old videos and started reviewing animated media, movies, and video games. Mark's last commentary video was "Game Grumps is on its last legs". In February of 2021, he relisted his old commentary videos to show the progression of his channel.

Trilogy Videos

These videos on LS Mark's channel focus on movie franchises, usually only going for 2 to 4 movies. Mark has done many of these videos, starting with his video talking about his love for the Diary of a Wimpy Kid trilogy.

Ranking Videos

SplashDash

Mark's second YouTube channel was originally a shitpost channel called "LoSer Mark", but he later re-branded it to SplashDash where he makes videos discussing Sonic The Hedgehog. Mark originally started his SplashDash channel to be similar to Cybershell's videos who was absent for nearly 3 years at the time. Cybershell returned to the internet soon after Mark started his second channel probably in fear of Mark replacing his title as the "Sonic Lore Master". Cybershell and Mark became good friends with each other and they interact regularly and support each other's channels. Mark has a running joke on his main channel about SplashDash being his "friend's" channel, Several fans play along with this joke, although he stopped it after some fans noticed that SplashDash is actually also run by Mark himself.

Controversy

Feud with Just Stop, DaftPina and Ricepirate

On February 11th, 2023 Just Stop, also known as Braxton released "Clearing The Air". The video addresses his prior video about Mark and his wife Veronica’s relationship, going into detail about how she cheated on Mark as well as keeping him around while she was sleeping with other guys. Braxton claimed that Dovendraw, formerly known as DaftPina was the driving force behind the video and proceeded to cut him out of his life entirely. Many argued that Braxton had thrown all the blame on DaftPina and didn't own up to his mistakes. Doc on the Radio, who interviewed Braxton, showed inconsistencies between his live debate and the Video he ended up making.

DaftPina would release a now-deleted response video showing DMs citing a few clarifications. Braxton came to him about making the LS Mark video, and on numerous occasions told him he didn't have to make the video. He also stated that he wasn't the only one working on the script with Braxton, clarifying that MangaKamen amongst several others participated and that Braxton never mentions their names within his video. DaftPina also reacted to a now-deleted video by Veronica about the situation, where Veronica clarified that Ricepirate wanted a relationship with her. DaftPina had found out that Mark had been leaking his animated pilot as well as making fun of him behind his back. He did this with his friend SonnyTM in a Discord server alongside Veronica and SecretNarcissist. Sonny had previously worked with DaftPina on a cartoon pilot that has yet to be released, and later leaked parts of the pilot on his channel citing that he hated working on it, as he thought it was terrible.
