There's no turning back
We're on your side just for that you love
So the judge, and the folk
It's on the road that's when you see the road
Time's down, it's got nothing left
But it's a throw in the towel, but that's your formation
And throw it down, it's the final swing
As the last go out the crown baby is to say
I'll be getting to see you
Hello everyone, and welcome to Perlis Pass here on GDPP.
This is a special Thursday edition as we remove to a Friday MLK day and make sure that everyone
could celebrate accordingly.
Today, if you can't tell, it's Pokemon Day.
That's right.
It's Triple P. It's Pokemon on Perlis Pass.
And also always, we focus on challenging and adventurous speed runs here, so it's not just
any Pokemon runs, it's Pokemon on hard mode, super hard mode, and post DLC hard mode.
So if we look at the schedule of what we're doing today, we are first doing Pokemon Legends,
ZA, Rogue, Mega Rush, with Price Source.
That is kind of the post game DLC.
I'll let them talk about that a little bit more.
Then we're going to do Pokemon puzzle link, PPL.
There's a lot of key letters in Pikachu is the unofficial mascot.
And this show, so Pokemon puzzle league is one piece stadium super hard because you know it's super hard. What else are we going to do?
And then Pokemon trading card game hard mode with or night. I'm super excited for all three of these.
But we have a lot of content on fuck-cloth fix and KDQ in general. So if you're interested in what's coming up,
we do have a course art of specials over the weekends.
Make sure you go to gdq.jg slash office and check out the full schedule there.
We're not the Monday show, but there is still a lot of good content coming up throughout the week.
And the weekend, so make sure you get ahead of that.
But without further ado, let's go ahead and bring in Chris Sorris, who is doing Pokemon Legend
Z.A. Rogue Mega Rush on the Switch to Unciberized for this. How are you doing today?
I am doing, I am kind of tired because you know, I am essentially one day in the future as
is that it's now currently one minute as a night, but I am, but you know what, I am happy to be here,
and I'm happy to showcase this amazing, it's pretty fun, neat little category that's just been added to the leaderboards as of a few days ago.
So hello everyone, I'm Carcassaurus, I do a lot of Pokemon stuff on mainly on the switch,
that might change soon, but we'll get to that later, but as of right now, the point has a few explanations to go through which is what is Rogue Mega Rush.
Rogue Mega Rush is a mode in this game, where at the very end, where what you don't
all the Rogue Megas, you effectively get the option to fight all the Rogue Megas in one
go without only having three heels. You can take any team of six with you that you like
service, or be the team of six that we'll be taking. And I think before we even go and
start this run, I would like to explain just a little bit why we're picking the six
Pokemon that we have with us into this essential challenge.
Essentially, you need to focus on our team and
understand them in cores instead of like individual Pokemon.
So to understand that, we're going to go through our first Pokemon,
which is the annihilate, which is,
essentially going to be our main Pokemon for our most of the DLC.
If you've seen casuals and other people talk about,
how do you deal with road beggars in the DLC?
Uh, you essentially want to use this, essentially talk about this and yes, the spirit
does use this as well with the moveset of, uh, work up screech focus and rage fist, main goal
is get all the bots that we can decrease the opponent defense smash.
Uh, to make this even more damaging, we also have access to pump kaboo, which is move trickle
treat allows us to essentially add the ghost typing to our opponents Pokemon, and allows
us to do double damage as for those who don't know in the super effective type shot, ghost
is super effective against ghosts, so we get to do more damage. The other core of this team
is the core of the Frost Core, which is the components of Trevenant, Lucario, and Excalibur.
Travenant is similar to Omkibu in the case of instead of using
an excuse me, instead of using trick or treat to add the ghost typing you
use forest curse to add the grass typing. If you've seen the AGDQ runoff
ranked F which you hope you have and you should go watch. You've seen this in
the Rogue Dragonite fight where they added the grass typing on Omkibu so that
characters can do more and more damage. But instead of using
are,
hair across with that using back scalable with its ice tightness.
Believe me, when we see the amount of damage we're going to be doing with back scalables
ice moves, you're going to be like, wait, what?
So keep that in mind.
And then finally we have our fighting core, which consists of a cario,
who's mainly here to deal some damage, decrease the defense,
and build up mega meter, and then going into surfetched,
which is essentially going to be our big fighting die for exactly two fights.
But you know, that's essentially the main just outside a little bit more as we go into the fights
Anyway, before we do that, there is one tradition that I did before I start anyone which is this NPC
And essentially this NPC just gives us a random drip so this is gonna be tonight's drip of the day
And
This is what we're gonna be looking like throughout the interest of this entire run. I think it's like this fashion because
I didn't realize it would do your hair, too.
No, it doesn't do your hair, but that's the one thing that doesn't do.
But just that I have a hairstyle on this profile,
but she's just partially blown and partially black,
which you can do in this game.
Without further ado, I think that's all the explanations I need to do.
Are we ready to go on the timer?
Yep, whenever you're ready, just give us a 3-2-1,
and we'll go off your count.
All right, and that's the case. We'll be going in three two one
Good luck at fun. I'm excited
So we're gonna start with the first box which is gonna be a world mega absolute if you played
If you see ranket, we'll be shooting remember seeing this to fight as a cario and we're gonna stop when we cario
We're not actually gonna use like the entirety of the fight with a cario
First thing you're going to do, if you're just going to screech the absole to use this
defense, if any immediately switch into surfers, we're going to get a little bit of a
brick break.
It's fine if it misses, it's not ideal if it misses, but it's fine, then we're going
to go in with a little bit of all that's actually in the bad, we got about RNG with
the flinch on S-flash, which is fine, and just effortfully with a little bit longer to set
up another source dancer, then just go ahead and look at those combat, then the head and
the quick way to deal with you just over have damage and I'm gonna use another plus move with
mediums fold to essentially, oh that's also not ideal, okay so, figure a little bit about RNG
to start off with this fight which is unlucky but sometimes it happens, you know, it only
is the focus of you and other damage, if you're with this whole of the build magnified but sadly
is not, but that's fine.
So not the greatest start.
All right, so how many are in this rush?
Let's keep track track, Jack,
where I want another coming.
20 seconds, so 20 seconds more than that.
One thing you made is that before I start before,
I ended the fight.
I actually switched which Pokemon I would kind of send out
beforehand, so then the moment that the next fight starts,
I can then just immediately go up the top when I want to use this case because you go guys.
It will add the trick or treat and we're going to get ourselves another case of that RNG.
Slowboard has two moves that it can go up or we really like to see it's waterfall attack.
But now as side beam was sadly we are getting all of the rough RNG or at the very beginning of this game which is fine.
We'll just have to deal with it.
But yeah, essentially we want to build up stacks of damage and we want to specifically see waterfalls is that because waterfalls
is a multi-ket movement, as we already know,
it will more damage that the more stacks of damage
that annihilate takes, the more damage the rage fist can do.
We are really getting unlucky with our 50-50 conflops.
So, we're just going to have to just slowly shift
this thing down until, in eventually, guys.
We're going to have an unfortunate, how
these two pounds, these first two bites go like, yeah, these first two bites all like
the biggest recent points on the run typically. But then after that, it'll go smoothly
I promise.
Thinking of a bite that actually goes smooth, we've seen the first call with the fighting
call of Rognega Absolute, we've seen the Goats call with Rognega slow growth. Now it's time for
the grass slash frost call with Rognega camera. What we're going to do with camera is we're
then add the grasslight thing to camera to then go into the aquarium then then decrease the
fence of the camera up and now because it's typing it's now with the ice thanks to
it's a it's a it's a cool off fire ground and grass type in so now we can go with one
ice cooker ash into an ice tank just to build from the mega meter we're gonna use another
of an icicle spear, then learning to go ahead and another icicle spear, it is now taken down.
And that's kind of like the three modes of this run.
So now what I'm going to actually see what happens when the annihilate strat actually goes correctly,
Because thankfully in this fight, it is a lot more better than the Rogue Megaslowers than like 50-50
Coinflip RNG I have to deal with.
So, because of the bullet speed, so all I have to do is position myself away from the
3-0 enough, so that then goes for bullet speeds, make sure that my annihilates it all
the damage go ahead from the new unit of the World Cup and then watch how much damage
this race fist actually does to the stocket.
Almost the one I care, in fact there's only you, you can't actually want a tail any of the
rogue magas, except one if we get lucky, and that's this one, and really funny if we do,
we just see it start, HK just get completely annihilated, really funny.
Now we were talking before we started that we do have a GDQ for love, e-mote, so a chat whenever
you see us punch something to death like that. I want to see some gloves in the chat and if you
don't have the GDQ glove, one you could saw that get it, but also if you have anything related,
untreated, apri-related, you know, feel free to spam some emails when we do that.
So like I said, we're gonna be setting up. And now we're gonna go get a little bit of punch and
Aww, so close!
That's fine, you're one more space into one more rage fist, just then does the job.
If we were talking numbers, like we see the health forever,
we're talking numbers how much health do you think that would have been that little slipper?
Ahhhh!
Like, they do have like an enormous amount of HP, like they have like 20 extra normal amount of HP, so I'll probably say like...
About 20?
Okay, I'm gonna still, it's not very much.
So here we're actually gonna be using the Ice Core instead of going on the fighting core
because there's a bit faster than using an ILAB.
So, after we've done a little bit of damage and some of the,
with the screech, we're gonna set up our team focus and then you can sort it in,
we're gonna have to hold the whole fire of these hits,
all of these Hats for this game, man, which they do.
They're gonna make sure they do another one.
And you might be noticing that I'm using sometimes using a move, just for the sake of just for the sake of it,
and I think that I'm actually in need to. So, I'll explain during this 5-1-7-8 run and I need to heal.
By the way, yes, that's one of my 3 heals gone, but that's fine, that's fine.
Essentially, I need to make sure to be negative and doing fast move, otherwise I'm only doing 30% of the damage that I normally suppose.
to be, whereas Postman's deal, or 100%.
So here, very finicky fight have to be very careful to
compuse Focus Energy and make sure my Nile is
because here, even you've worked up just before it goes away,
just to make sure again, extra hit off of that fan
support, down the middle quickly, screech, and then go
into a rage fist.
And hopefully, if I get the right damage range,
it should be a two-hit punch.
No, I'm lucky.
Sometimes I would have to be green smaller.
But that's like a three or four HP sliver, right there.
Yeah.
Unfortunately, Pokemon only does between 85 to 100% of the maximum damage.
So even though I did get enough hits to heal the 2AKL,
I just didn't hit the range to get the 2AKL,
which is unfortunate.
Anyway,
Now your Amphro says there's a number fight where I actually have to be very quick, so I have to make sure that I get the trick or treat off, but then position myself in a way that once all these dragon forces come in all of them hit my anilephs, so I get all the damage text, but frankly, thank you to didn't really matter if this time because we Amphro chose to go for a second one.
you make sure that I buy an island as unfortunate. I want to make sure that my island didn't get hit by that.
Um, waking up with another attack is being reduced and serviced being into a KO. This is now
into a KO, which is unfortunate but, thankfully it's like, no, not much of a big deal.
And it goes down.
Now the reiterate this is like the hardest post game content there is right and yeah
you're taking these down in like 30 seconds. Yeah like the first 20 or so take like a minute
you might roughly a minute on average and then the last you take double the time because
they have multiple phases. So here, well back first one can be a bit finicky depending
on how many stacks I can get quickly because sadly for me, the barrel couldn't have a
multi hit menu so it's the case of I need a barrel could pick me as much as I can. I
I really just found a bunch of power punches.
Okay, it gets like the longer power punch,
if my block is like to do.
We just find the now, we just go for the screach,
and then just go for one more reach first.
And it's not out.
Now, I see you running around and picking up the boards on the ground.
What is that doing for you?
So you might notice on the bottom right hand corner, I think it's over hand corner.
There's like a mega meter and you need to fill up all that mega meter for us to do possible.
It's possible is the thing I mentioned earlier that we are required to use.
So that we actually do the actual damage and not we're only doing.
Only 30% of the damage will normally do.
So using moves build up mega meter but also picking up those goals build up a lot of mega meter as well.
So, hey, with more while, you want to make sure that we do things very carefully, and
then you're not necessarily very carefully.
But we need to make sure that we deal enough damage to skip the phase of more while, because
if we don't, we'll be in actually like leaving in a minute.
But thankfully, we'll be, eventually after more while goes in rage, more time build up an attack
and go up the screen and we'll be as it's a hiddicle and then it also so we need to make sure that we knocked it out before.
It was that sometimes we'll be doing precise damage onto the boat onto the boat.
You'll see that more of a layer of negative will do precise damage to ensure we avoid specific things.
Anyway, time for the what I call the time loss boss fight because boss
class similar to like other boss fights it doesn't like doing a lot of
decino attacks sometimes so we have to see what attacks it gives us and we
need to make sure that we build up to four stacks before we start actually
doing damage. So that's two I see when the game is good that's three so now
Now, I just need one more stack from this first class
before we can then start your damage.
Please don't go through all the ways.
Good, and that's a two-a-k-o.
And now, we just now before last one move,
and we can just find a right fist, and it's up.
This way I can be quite annoying sometimes.
Not, not, not, not, not the hot, yeah. So, we're hard at five, we're not here yet. The
hotest fight is only enough for a second to last fight in the game, but what you can answer
is that when we get there? As it should be though, right? You always want it. Yeah, maybe not
the season. Similar to, yes, similar to, yeah, similar to that is actually problematic. Unfortunately,
I didn't position myself properly to get all those hits so now I'm going to have to manually build up this
the actual app of wait till Ocaria goes back down eventually which thankfully after three
bring in blast with us so we just need to weigh the one more dragon pose to stop
outing up and then we should be fine for now.
Wow, we're really getting those slivers yeah I didn't mess up the pipe a little bit I didn't
actually position myself enough but the annihilate will take all five hits from the dragon
to both immediately, that fight can go a so much faster than that, but it's fine.
Now this is what's right there, really, really stupid questions for Pokemon Noirs, but
is it possible to punch him while he's flying?
Yes. Not all moves in this game can hit him, but can hit the Altaria, but a Nileb's
rage fist is enough to dig enough to hit. So for Venusau, we would really like the Venusau
to use bullet seeds similar to how a vitribelle use bullet seed to essentially get multiple stacks up,
which is exactly what you see. Only the four is fine. I guess I'll just accept the three
there, yeah.
And then position ourselves around that in case of a thing.
Cause I know if I can just a little like to move in the middle.
And then it gets tilted.
Just like a good in stories to ignore in the other compromise.
Just kind of follow in your around like a pet.
Yeah, some of the
roads will either target you always.
Or target the Pokemon.
Always a kind of depends on.
But sometimes it's random, so Dragonite is a case where it's random if it targets you.
I know for the fact that Dragonite is both a tech-especially always target me, though,
but then afterwards it'll kinda just change.
So here, yeah, you think that Dragonite is just, you know, what we eat to ice here.
We just add a grass type which is also a week to ice, so we just made it now
about roughly a ton to eat to ice, so these ice hits are going too hurt.
Make sure I position my backscal of the properly so that it doesn't take any damage from
Dragonite.
And then, you just see how much damage although I did not get enough Mega Nefish.
I'm long as we just hit, yep, hit, pull.
This skip Dragonite's big attack way goes around Hyperbeam's the Empire place, so we don't
see that. I do not know how from last year this
round is. We're getting all kinds of
particle effects and abilities and obviously
pokemon's very colorful to begin with.
So it's just like very visually. I don't
know half of what's around. We're very
visually interesting. So here we're going to
be using a bit of a card to do some of the
initial damage. So when we're a little bit of
a sort of dance, a little bit of a drain
punch, and then we're going to make sure we
do enough damage to this parameter and
into the drop some bulbs for us, which typically one drain punch, one close combat, and one more drain punch will get us back.
And then we'll use a switch to the decreases defense one over 30 seconds, and then we're essentially just going to be
utilizing the bird to your old on damage.
And then, unfortunately, media soldiers have, like, just a little downside we have to go a little bit,
but that's fine because we can.
Anytime a Pokemon is in rage, we can't actually damage it, but we should spine.
Just another slipper, again, I'm getting a lucky that it's fine, just one more quick and
fun.
That might be the smallest slipper we've seen.
I was like literally one or two pixels.
And lastly, it is probably the community's favorite mega.
I don't think there's any distribution of this mega.
You either do love it or you hate it.
I mean, this reminds me of suicide squad.
So I love it.
Not that I love suicide squad or anything,
but definitely remind me of that.
We're here, we're going to focus on energy and always get hit by this object.
There's an object.
If we are lucky, like before, we get to see waterpost, which is like a really good boot.
Unfortunately, we don't have, we actually get that orangey, because you just got the flinch, which means our uh-oh.
Okay, we have to be...
Okay, we're going for a backup fun, I guess.
That is not to post the happen.
You're not to post the happen, I like that, but that is fine.
You can fix this.
You can pick this. Actually, that was multiple to happen. Oh, okay, this is just going great.
It's fine. Everything is going fine. We're just going to use a good amount of time here, but it's fine.
but it's fine.
Yes, so unfortunately on my naïly thigh,
it's not supposed to happen, but it's fine.
But just gonna have to slowly chip first down.
This is why we have a 40 minute estimate.
But also I personally kind of like when these things happen
because this is the joy of doing it live
and a marathon setting is sometimes you see just how far. So, some of these things are
and just how if things aren't, you know, don't go perfectly or you get better on doing something.
Like, what it would look like to a normal person and the hell of hard the game actually is at a base level.
And so, sometimes the things go wrong, like, it's actually really kind of in lightning and useful to see.
Alright, we're gonna need to move in here.
This backscalper, okay, oh boy.
We're just gonna have to take this wall.
Yeah, this is not how this fight is supposed to go out of all.
I'm not able to suppose to do a damage,
but unfortunately, we got a 10, 20% chance to flinch.
It is my favorite, it's a festive to happen.
Alright.
Well thankfully, I know both actually this thing
I'll get me and not backscalibus, so my backscalibus is to say cool a little bit.
Of course, your defense is rose.
And of course, that's fine, that's fine.
You're almost there, just...
And it's been you.
You just need to do a little bit more.
It's fine-free accidently died here because I can always just go to, um, actually you should be fine here.
Oh, unless it goes back, please.
You're like so close to dying, please you die.
You're ready for a few minutes here.
Okay, okay, all right, cool, all right, well that was a love love and chat for that improvization.
Mr. Keep it going there. Oh, that was completely awful. That is not supposed to happen.
But anyway, we're now at your new DLC and, uh, oh, if I'm helpful again, that's pretty
It's a fight twice, it's a big absolutely.
Oh wow.
Wow, we're all four dragon ball on this.
Anyway, so hopefully that these next few fights which I actually found which are actually
more dangerous than normal goes much, much better than what was what's the Army happened.
So here is just better for us to go back to the outside instead of utilizing my late.
to listen to your damage, essentially hopefully I'm watching again a bit more unlucky
there with not all of my ice-fish-shod's hitting, but it's not ice-fish-case hitting, but it's fine.
It's a few more ice-fish-case hitting, and it is dead.
Very nice.
I could breath this okay, remember this is perilous past or reason if this was easy, you
wouldn't be here.
It's alright, it's true.
Alright, growing Megastar after this one is
can be annoying if depending on what star after choose to do
it's beginning to always do like this stream into a focus class
but then I'll fly somewhere and I can find out where to go
which is the kind of be more annoying part.
That is the wrong Pokemon.
I love something other than that one, that's fine.
elbow where the bird is over there. That's fine. The bird will always hug and eat first,
which is fine. I can just make sure that my backstabler doesn't take too much damage,
because I do actually keep my backstabler as healthy as I am, because I have me
one of the heels a little bit earlier than I would like to admit, but fine.
That's not good, all right, I guess we're going to be seeing star actors, they get
tacked, which I really didn't want to see, but that is fine, so we're just going to dodge
a bunch until it stops, and then just focus on you.
So it sounds like one more time than hopefully one more ice-coast air.
Should just take it down.
Now assuming I'm a filthy casual,
so this may come off as a stupid question,
but in most Pokemon games Pokemon cannot directly attack the train.
So we're seeing here a lot of times the Pokemon
are coming after you directly,
but I don't see a health bar or anything on screen for yourself.
So what does it mean when a Pokemon is attacking you versus your Pokemon?
So, we do actually have a health bar, our health bar is actually when you see it has one good one.
When you see the side of our screen to come back, that is actually our health bar decreasing and at the
exact red, we have exactly one HP left. And we cannot, but we do region health slowly. So that is
like the one and end that we have. That's two. I mean, one more hit on this touch of Gary and then
and then we can go forward to a kill.
Tabs of you can be a bit of an annoying fight
because it likes to jump around a lot.
So we're actually in a way until it decides to start an attack like so.
And then hopefully it doesn't want me.
Thank you for not following me.
And then we can do one more punch.
That's fine.
And then you'll just stay there.
So we need that this next punch is absolutely free.
And it is done.
I'm just talking about scrubbery jam on the screen.
Love regenerating health.
Alright, next up is possibly one of my favorite magas designed wine.
It's my gating health stick because if you know me outstretched has two forms,
male and female, allow us to introduce ourselves to,
and on binary me outstretched, which is both.
That is very cool, isn't it?
So, very quickly, we need to get ourselves a trick-between off.
off, as I use then switch into an ally. We need to make sure that we take a specific amount
of damage during the spike. I also realized that because an ally fented, my ult wanted
to max friendship, which might cause a little bit of a problem, but we'll be able to
you will back in a moment and we next to in the next two fights. But hopefully
doesn't deal much of a problem. Okay, we did to a KO this so you're going to teleport to the middle
and hopefully it's ray tracing enough to kill. It is okay. So we don't need to do
with this attack because there's not how it's supposed to be but it's fine.
Well, she will bring you out because we need to deal with much damage to this we can.
And I also don't need my, I also don't need my selfish thing anymore after this point.
So even if suffice dies, it's fine.
And then we just need to do this, do this, and then get it a little punch and it's fine.
I'm not for those of us county at home. Do you have an in a wet
number? We're on. Uh, I do. We all this is down road.
Thank you. Want to okay? We're in the 20s. We're almost there. And we now
start the legendary Northland. Was you really at the fight? Rogue mega
legionaries.
How do you do?
Heatron is, thankfully, not the biggest deal because it would just stand in the
position of the location and then just stand on moves, you'll always go for flash, haven't
always hit my anilep and we will be completely fine.
Like so, we'll give the number four little work up, pick up your orbs, and then get another
stack.
And then two more rage fish should absolutely decimate this.
If not just one more, not definitely one more.
Just cook the fine.
And there goes more making the trend.
Well, if I were just standing in between like two fired tornado shooting meteor
is that you know, like this is fine.
Don't worry about that.
Oh, it's going to get a bit worse.
But fine.
Oh, speaking of worse, this fight this fight is pretty
annoying, my election may be one of the lowest, but there is actually a rogue member there
or a fight, and it can be rough, or it's hope it's not too rough. So first we're going to make
sure that if I go to the top, say I'm going to go before, and then I would need to keep a track
of how many hits I get as well as how many crits I get because it's no longer in the consistent
Thanks to the mistake that I made on StarMe but this is going to be fine if you go for a
lecture web I believe you appreciate it, because now my on our life is taking like every
time it's on that thing and you're just taking an extra hit just like the really helpful
Please can I call get the little orb and give and it's dead and I realize I let the
the rough problem for the next fight, but that is fine as an easy switch.
Alright, that's 22, but I have to go.
But I have to go and we now start with two phasing that row of mega fights.
To a face one, we don't fight them as a mega and face two, we do.
So here, I play basically just so it stems first, then we can go up and that's up ahead of us.
Fine, here we go, we can go over to the spreege.
Let's go over the car right now, we just need to build up a mega meter as fast as we can.
Just by doing these.
And then I just need to do this.
And then we'll drain punch.
And then we actually get to, won't you actually follow?
Then before we charge, we can actually go and eat mega revolution.
It's the only fight we actually need mega revolution.
because every other fight slow,
but the main cool thing about mega revolution
in this fight in particular
is the fact that because of the two phase five,
we actually cheap the mega for the next phase of the fight.
So that's very one.
And if I do phase two correctly, which,
judging by my consistency in this,
it's not exactly perfect, but I get
If I do this part, my doctor would do absolutely no damage to me.
Also, not sure if I have the only opinion, but this will put a curvy boss.
Anyway, first of all, go ahead and go use a screech.
We'd then go ahead and use a course combat, which will then stumble back by.
Then I'm ready to mess up with my other spine.
Go back to the extra drainfront, but there's a cave to the new event.
One other course combat.
and then for a drink punch and then now it's just not going to
up.
It's just going to want to move but I find
8000 is going to be stunned.
Move and just deal.
All the damage to it.
And it's just not going to do anything to us.
I'm going to do a punch in here too.
So it's full punch quite straight.
All right.
Now it's time.
Well, grow it on. Time for all more legendaries that we have to fight and grow it on is one of them.
Of course we're going to go for a little bit of trickery. And then we're going to go for a safe
God so that our annihilate doesn't get burned, which is going to be very important that it doesn't get burned because burn has our tax.
Let me know in the comments.
So we're just going to deal this. We're going to just have left annihilate to the meat shield.
And score sheet time is really good to get because it's a military hit me so we can just get more stacks of our
All-varrage fest
All right, I'm very careful because I'm literally one quick place in time
There we go, and that is phase one to grow them
Can you the player get one shot or you're always gonna be taking down to red and then it's a second bit after that
Yeah, if you're always taking down your red and then it's won't get active.
So if I'm at red, it's like, okay, I need to wait until I heal just a little bit.
Just so I don't need to be die.
I think you wish I'd be very quick here.
Yeah, and now it's out, and runs, I do not take this far, but I'll take myself.
And then I'm going to use the same thing again.
Well, up, unfortunately, the only thing that doesn't
Sadly, Harry over is the finished first stack, so I have to rebuild it every single time.
So right now I'm at one.
Oh boy, okay.
I'm just...
Don't die.
Okay, I need to hit my Nile.
What scores he sounds is perfect.
And then now after this hit, you will get stunned, and I don't have to worry about being hit.
itself.
Or at least a little bit of time.
And I just chew more rage-fast advantage then, though.
That'll be then final ground on repeated with mostly no problems.
I'm trying to imagine this from the Pokemon's point of view.
You want me to do what now and they're front of the fire blasts gonna punch this guy in the face like a rather not
Yeah, so now it's gonna sit at taking a fire blasts in the face
I'm gonna take a served what a certain ice beans to the face. I do I am
I am recently every single time I go to a high school, may 10 to 10 chance to freeze, but hopefully we don't get a lucky if
Ah, it's a good level
I love my ally being closed on my not all the RNG happening to me all at once.
I love I love 10% chances. It's my favorite.
Now that's the second or third time we've had like a kind of a 20% chance. Plus all the
deliveries like maybe you should buy a lot or take it to the air. Thankfully it's not
going to much of an issue as I have this defense of it is not the best so we can just
take it down no problem.
Thankfully, this is going to be for me. This is going to be the last half hour
we need to use the monkey for the fight we can then go and use the backstab of it instead.
So once again, we're going to turn tired into a ghost type
and then we'll then switch into an eye-life.
And then when you're going to see what needs to go,
First of all, those were served, which is completely fine.
Obviously now being fine more now, it serves a much, much bigger.
So I'm going to ensure that I avoid the hits.
Also, for what you mentioned, the item that we have on our annihilate is the shellbell.
So any time it gets hit, it gets a percentage of health back.
But because we're doing so much more intended damage,
than the getting expected to, we'll just hit the cover and all of our HP back.
So it's not like we have to be too worried about the fact I am worried about this
but next slide.
All right.
Otherwise you need to go more punch and then get his down for the count.
Very nice.
All right, two more fights to go.
Two more fights.
The thing that made its own tailist and small gone, if anything goes, right, first thing first we're going to make this thing with eight times with the ice because we knew as much damage we can, then we're going to go for a little bit of a switch here, and then we're going to switch to up-scalber, we're going to make sure that backscalber does not take too much damage because backscalber does not have the can.
And I, we are keeping the heel for the final final fight which will absolutely mean to you.
But again, this fight can be a bit crazy. Can be a bit scary.
Up please.
There we go. That's phase one.
And now it's time for phase two and someone did mention there is no Delta stream.
That is where you are wrong.
I'm a grout on Pymil, Pymil, Pymil, and Megavill Fraser.
Do you have their abilities?
Well, they are not stunned.
They will have their abilities,
they would normally have in the main game.
So even though we are making it more weak,
the eyes, it is currently not eight times weak,
the eyes, but back down the floor,
thanks to the completely balanced mechanic
of the Delta stream.
So we're going to make sure that our defenses have been dropped.
I think the noise is going from media being which is completely fine because it means that it is not
targeting my next album, it's not targeting my next album, it means my next album is not going to
be by. And then we can go sort of cheeky little ice fan here into an icicle spirit, try to
build up, move in mega next gauge, eventals one out of ice fan with another, then stunned the
Requaser and then one more high school spirit not to have a Quaser in Portio.
At least the fight I was most scared of those low.
Reeses that.
Very, very nice.
And in my last deal we're then going to buy the only Don Mega technically in this world
Mega Rush, which is I don't know.
The 2.5 phase 1 is pretty simple. We actually, this is the only 5 we actually want to need
the backstaliber because we're just going to absolutely decimate this to the faith in
4.5 and 4 moves.
That's 5.
The 5 phase 1 phase 2 we're going to leave it with the tree and we're going to leave it with
the tree. And we're going to make sure it's now again similar to wake
quizer, a complete ice. We're then going to go behind it and get our back
stalver. We're going to make sure we do a cross-isolate space so that again
when the like I'll get started, which means we do anything which allows us
a fully set up of all sorts of dance and focus energy and then we'll then do a
enough damage to then knock out our two zygoth and up with there's a phase 3.
You only need three phase fight ends game.
This one we have to be pretty careful on how many of it depending on how one zygoth
you chose is. It normally likes to go for a move called 1000 blades which if I'm not careful
I thought we actually make sure my group wants to stop and I'm going to be able to switch out
with you honestly time loss but thankfully we don't have to worry about that anymore because
we got to have the rest type in end of the fence job. Now we just need to set up my backstab of
the problem and then one eye school spirit of the one-plus eye-stang and then another eye-school spirit
should then be enough to knock this out. And also time is coming up now.
GG's. And that is the World Mega Rush. Done in the IGT time of 25 minutes, 28 seconds
point-free eight. Awesome. Well, I know the R&G was not, you know, super, super fun, but I
think that you pivoted and improvised extremely well, and thank you so much for showcasing
that off. Like I said before, if it wasn't hard, it wouldn't be on the shelf so I'd
appreciate now's a great time if you want to tell all the wonderful people out there where they can learn more about you if you have a discord a stream shout out anything and everything
times yours yeah so I
have
funny I'm going pretty much every social media profile making find this you know high press as
source as a 90% chance of it's me
typically I do streams of Pokemon although I a little bit it is in a more
or European friendly kinds of them.
So if you're watching from,
if you're watching from America,
you know, if you don't mind watching streams early
in the morning, then you know,
you have at least your early morning entertainment,
cover for you, where I do make me more modern Pokemon stuff.
Like, like, you know, ZAA and stuff,
Although I have been extremely tempted to move to the 3DS era, so maybe there might be some of that coming over and if you enjoyed this, I will say that don't know me if this run is a lot,
don't know me a lot better, but stop, stop me happening. So we're just gonna have to accept it. And yeah, I think, I think that's pretty good.
Look my bed behind me because it's currently in 1945 so we'll pack this up.
Yeah, no, I especially appreciate any time international runners are able to join us.
The time zones are always a little difficult, so thank you so so much for staying up with us and hanging out with us.
We will let you get the bed and get some well-own rest because that run was incredible.
We will take a short break to get set up the Pokemon puzzle league super hard, which I'm excited for.
And while we're on break, if you are looking to get more involved with the GQ community,
you can join the official games on quick discord and add the hot fix role so you can stay
on the loop and up to date on upcoming shows events and more.
So you've experienced market discord in chat to learn more about that.
But we'll see you in just a few minutes.
Hello, everyone, and welcome back to Parallax.
past here on GPU topics, you could use back as well, so as always we are in middle of a showcase
of challenging and adventurous speedrun. But before we get into our next one,
picking up challenging adventures, I want to let everybody know that GPU topics is
hosting a special game done blindfolded showcase on February 21st, 22nd, and submissions are
actually open right now. So if you're interested in taking part in that, you can type
explanation mark GDB in chat for more details. Now as a quick aside, I was part of the Mario 64 relay
at AGDQ, we had some blindfolded runners there, and I got to see how they practiced and to use the
things, and it's just incredible to watch blindfolded runs. You know, done straight up live,
it's really interesting, so definitely check that out. And while we're talking about submissions,
you can also, if you want to do a normal submission, doesn't have to be blindfolded,
But if you can do a blindfolded, I will appreciate it.
If you want to appear on GDQ topics, we are always accepting submissions for new runs
and we are accepting submissions right now for the winter season.
But if you've got to run a new one showcase on the channel,
whether that is for Perilla's Path,
for a different GQ topic show,
we have a lot of different shows with a lot of different themes.
You can go over gdq.gg slash submit slash topics
or type exclamation marks submit and chat for more details.
Now, we are going to move into something that has a lot of peace in it.
So we're going to do Pokemon puzzle on Pairless Pass featuring Pikachu.
But this is going to be one player stadium super hard being done by a wizard person.
Was the person how are you doing today?
I would just deal with some 20, 25th degree.
Below zero weather here in Winnipeg.
with an up to the city's namesake of winter pegs, but as a matter of cozy environment, I'm ready to show off some
high-octane panel.
Do you think 25 billion here?
Yeah, it's about 25 below Fahrenheit up here.
I don't know.
You don't want to be outside for more than 10 minutes at a time if you absolutely.
Well, at least it's not how I know you have snow on Saturday.
That's wild, but we don't have to talk about the weather, that's okay.
Don't talk a little bit more about by yourselves,
the run, what we can expect to see, what makes it super hard.
I'm really excited, this is officially the first puzzle game
that we have ever had on the show.
So we're branching into New genres, a new territory here.
It was quite the pleasant surprise to hear back, almost instantly.
Hello everyone, I am a wizard person.
I'm going to be running Pokemon Puzzle League on the super hard category.
And we're going to show you just why this category is so challenging.
It's not going to feel that way to me, but to many of you, and especially the versions of you that were in grade school
in grade school, this game came out in 2000,
and you were stuck on war life for 22 minutes,
and couldn't get past it.
We are going to get vengeance on the half
of your younger selves as we absolutely smashed through
this difficulty.
And joining me, the health explain
the mechanics of this game and what makes it so challenging
is a card to the heart.
So updids, this is cards of the hearts.
I've been speedrunning this game since 2013,
and you may, he would may have seen me
speedrun this very category at summer games
on quick 2015.
And well, there's a reason that I am kind of considered
the unofficial grandpot of the Puzzle League
speedrun community.
And you confirmed or denied that?
Was it person?
Yeah, you and smart or are the grandparents
of this community, lots of institutional knowledge that you're carrying around.
Indeed, so we do expect this run to take somewhere between 20 and 30 minutes, but there is a
reason that this estimate is 40 minutes. And hopefully you won't see too much of that as we
head into the spring. Unless you have anything else to say before we get started,
you go and catch in.
Yeah, I'm going to,
I'm just going to dial in at the beginning of the run,
let cards explain things.
And then I'll ship in with my own banter along the way.
So yeah, we'll go have a get started in the 3, 2, 1,
panels.
Good luck at fun.
Thank you.
Good luck.
You certainly need some good luck in order to get through this
get through this run. But yes, this is Pokemon Puzzle League for the Nintendo 64 as
was a person be playing it on today. But it's also available on the Wii virtual console
and the Nintendo Switch online expansion pack. And all of those versions are valid for
submission on our speedrun, the your boards, which get fairly active, especially nowadays
reason we'll get into a little bit. But what you're seeing right now is a bit of a
different different type of game than what you might be used to seeing before.
This is a puzzle game. This is a match three puzzle game. So you can line up three
panels of the same color and design horizontally or vertically in order to make
them disappear. But as far as the speed run goes, we're not going to get very far
are making magic just three.
And even with doing more than just matching three
we were running into some problems already.
As we're seeing here, hopefully these,
these are 16 opponents that we're about to see
throughout this run will have too much of that.
So for this speed run,
we're focusing on making combos in chains.
Combos are what you get by matching more than three
of the same panel at the same time
that can be in a row, that can be in a row,
that can be intersecting horizontally
and vertically at the same time.
That can be all different panels.
There are lots of different ways to make combos.
And sometimes you will have to get creative
with making combos in order to get through this run.
Primarily though, we're going to be trying to make chains.
And you're going to see the chaining done
by wizard person here.
He's making a match and then letting the panels
above it fall into another ready-made mansion. A lot of it is made be made on the fly.
There's lots of guests checking. Going to this.
So here's what we're primarily trying to do in this run. This strategy is going to be more or less
less consistent throughout the 16 saves we see here. Very fortunate there for Gary the first
as we we sometimes call him to run out of time. We'll smell him again later. But we're going to be trying
to attack these opponents with our combos and chains in a very particular order. The combos,
the four-norrow matches you're seeing with a person make here are sending small
small thin garbage blocks to these opponents and the chains are sending big
thick garbage blocks that these opponents that that's a garbage box you cannot
interact with at all the way you away you
I was close.
Yeah, just talk, talk over me.
I rant at the same.
A lot.
You know the group?
Yeah.
Yes.
Yes.
For a reason we get into later, we've known this for quite some time.
But the way we're going to try to attack all these opponents is we're going to be trying
to make foreign or pro combos at the very start of our chains.
And in this game, if you leave your chain with a combo, then the garbage that you make from that combo actually
land on your opponents before the
thick garbage from the chain with land. So that so we're trying to attack with combos in a very particular
fashion and also in general we're trying to like chain until the opponent's fish is chaining and
in the doing it in expert fashion there
will result in what we call in the community a combo trap or at least that's a more
recent name I've been giving to it. These opponents when they have combo
garbage on a directly on top of their panels they have a habit of only looking
underneath the lowest garbage block on their field. So if they if they have a
a bunch of panels. If they have a bunch of panels, but a garbage is sitting in the one particular
spot, one side or another on their field, then they're going to only be able to see the panels
underneath that lowest block. And a lot of times these folks won't be able to see some things
that that a human player would necessarily be able to see. So we're kind of like manipulating
these opponents into thinking that they actually have no moves when, in fact, they normally
would.
Now, as someone who sells, like, no frame of reference for this game, it looks like we're
selecting Pokemon at the beginning of a battle, and I see the, obviously, electric symbols
here.
How do the Pokemon play into this and your role types or weaknesses or anything else
that we're trying to do?
It's curious.
This, this, this, this game used to this, this game used to be a, this game, this game was
part of a bigger series of games that started in Japan with paneled upon on the original
super Famicom back in 1995 and it was a ported to the, to North America in the next year
You're as Tetris attackers, so if you may have seen that in previous previous games done quick
iterations uh this this game in in particular used to be a prototype. Hello. Oh, the spiritual successor.
Yeah, sometimes the the stack of animals will do some that was weird things in the old garbage
garbage, garbage, dropping on top of them. So, so these
potents are quite fast, they will only get faster as the run
goes along. So, so we're trying to be particular about when we
send these garbage attacks onto these folks. So, where's the person
we try to to control the size of his chain that almost purely from a
a timing.
First of all, it's not really as much the size of the chain that you make, it's when you
send it that tends to be a bigger factor in when these opponents win or lose.
Like fortunately, fortunately, they're the timing of that attack was pretty good, so
Erica finally hit the dust there, but the timing is not always going to be obvious.
It even after years, and years, and years of playing and
sparing this game, like the two of us, we don't get the timing perfect every time.
And when that happens, the speed of these foes allows them to play for quite a long time.
It is not uncommon to have a single stage play out more than five minutes at a time.
And considering we're trying to adhere to somewhat strict estimate here,
here all days considered, we don't really have time to let these stages play out
in long time. So what you're seeing quite a bit here is,
was there a person going back to the game level select immediately after
after some time, as past in just going right back into the level. We call that a stage reset.
Sometimes we'll judge these kinds based on how many stage resets they get.
There's a thing we hope with the somewhat reckless abandon with which these opponents will match
panels that their stack will not be so nice and level to keep the combo
garbage blocks that we make from from a touching each other. If they're
touching each other, then they're touching the big garbage that we're
trying to keep them from clearing and it just waste a whole bunch of
time whenever that happens. By the way, you clear off garbage blocks that
get sent to you by just making any sort of match that touches.
That garbage block and then that's that garbage block and every other garbage block touching it will
We'll have the bottom line of that block transformed into regular panels
So you can use you can use garbage to counter attack
But and that could get very interesting when you get into higher levels of players actually a pretty active
PDP community for
Related more to the original
For version of this game, the original processor to this game in Tetris Attack.
It's called Panel Attack.
It's a developed Optimus.
Is that there?
More or less in the the same fashion as Tetris Attack.
And you could actually play against other people online,
which is certainly, certainly makes for some interesting Dragon Balls.
That's a very nice way for Sabrina here to go down.
That's not something that happens that often.
Now, of course, we're here because obviously we're playing on Super Hard.
We're here to the difficulty in the challenge of it.
So maybe could we talk a little bit about what the Super Hard
that's setting due compared to other difficulties or the block moving faster?
Is the AI better?
Is there what is it kind of doing trust?
There are a couple of things that the level choice does.
There are actually five levels to the one player stadium,
a mode that we're playing on it,
and depending on your overall skill level at this game,
you may have only ever seen three of them,
that being easy, normal, and hard,
and the difference between those levels is basically
the game engine that that the this mode plays at. If you are familiar with this game,
if you are familiar with the versus mode just playing playing against other humans, humans in this
game, you may see you may see you may be familiar with the versus levels. And the versus levels
effect various things about how the game operates like how long how long
panels take to fall after after a popping and how long like once you get
to the top of the screen. Once you're gradually rising panels reach the top
of the screen you have a little bit of a grace period to try and make some
other things happen before the game tries to force your panels through the
the top of the screen and make you lose it's you're playing on the this it does take
this it's just good in furiating to playing it's at at times the if you're
again here familiar with the versus levels the easy level of this mode plays
at a versus level of one the normal mode plays at level of two and the the hardest
levels. The hard, the very hard to the next secret level level before this and the super hard
level play at a level 4, which is kind of easy mode for these opponents to try and recover from.
That's a great, very interesting one. I'm playing somehow. Ran out of time trying to figure out
figure out how to solve that. But those kinds of timing out winds are good.
The much fewer and farther between now that we are into the second half of this run.
Tracy, you sketch it here tends to be a bit of a difficulty spike for us.
Now, we can't, you know, as we can't figure out exactly why that is, like, these opponents
will get faster and faster as they go, but we're not exactly certain of the thresholds
that these opponents are playing with, playing with, and this is hard enough to play
when you're executing properly, but, again, if you mess up or have some bad
luck timing these attacks so these opponents can last for like like five plus
minutes if you if you let them we're trying to be very we're trying to be very
particular about the timing with which we send these attacks and we're trying to
do some some of some fancy little things like like a lag change trying to
trying to build up our chains in a faster manner than the usual normal one two three pop
pop pop pop a rhythm that this game normally clears panels in and that's crazy we're
crazy this one's out of time.
Very, again, very uncommon in the second half.
It's not going to happen very well.
I will point out that with how a wizard person is approaching these panels.
uh, if, what, a couple of things, uh, if there's any sort of advice, I can give to anyone
picking this up, were the first time that it's always always always start with a combo,
always try and match more than three at a time and you can, you can, you can make some
good things happen just by, by making, making those, by making those combos, and of course,
Of course, when the opponent is cooperating, that is.
Oh, but Rocket's gonna dump stack themselves.
They're gonna pull out some blocks in an inefficient way as they
dump stack, not clear in the garbage in the process.
Run themselves out of moves for the crush kill.
Reals are calling a conch kill.
After all, galping conch in the community.
They're a big fan of it's crush kill.
So when had named them after him.
Indeed, indeed, indeed, hopefully we'll get to see
a few more of those, but at least those have no sense of self-control.
So, so as they can, if they could potentially make matches to where they
completely exhaust themselves of panels, they will do so.
And if you could keep up your comboing and chaining,
chaining until they do do just that, then then you can certainly
certainly have yourself a good time with these opponents.
But that kind of ability takes again years upon years
of training to build. And even even then we don't always get it right. But you know, so far, so far,
so far we're doing pretty good here. I think a couple of people in chat are asking about
lag change if you want to give a more in-depth explanation of those.
Right, right, so right. As I was I was trying to explain that you're seeing a particular
a rhythm to which these panels are game transformed. You match them and then they disappear
one at a time. You're seeing the normal rhythm that was a person was making these chains
to start the stage.
A lag chains are simply setting things up in a way to go faster than that intended rhythm.
And when these opponents get fast enough to the point where they can
they can potentially empty their entire stack of panels in like 20 seconds.
You kind of have to have some sort of ability to keep up with the rate at which they are popping things.
So we will sometimes try to make chains in a way that they will
that they will land at different points and actually increments the internal chain counter in different ways.
Fortunately, we're not having to do anything too fancy here so far. This is actually going kind of crazy so far.
There's not a ton of time lapse really quick as I just want to say like when we get to Gary,
Gary, that will be our final opportunity to actually
program Pokemon.
So if people want to spam in the chat, either
if you can shoot Bulbasaur or Squirtle, I will just
pick the last Pokemon that I see in chat for the final
stage where we help have that option.
Because this is going really fast and parts
just in such a good job with the commentary.
Yeah, yes, yes, it's a very fortunate that these opponents are cooperating so far,
but not to, oh, sure.
You always have to, yeah, yeah, yeah, Bruno, that makes sense.
That definitely makes sense.
Wow, yeah, we normally get opponents that are this cooperative.
They're usually able to get to whatever match they can make, but to the panels, the panels are randomly generated, by the way.
These panels have to be generated one at a time, and there's a long, last time, last time, remember, there's a long internal sequence that the game will reference to try and pick with the next panel.
should be, it can generate a unique string of like, maybe half a million panels, so, so, so, so we can't count on the, the same panels being used for every single stage, so, so whatever is happening here in this run right, right as a, we head into the final stage, we, you know, we're already, we're already at the final opponent, and it is mutual, and he's going to win.
Or maybe we're maybe we're or maybe we're gonna win. I don't know. I don't know, Chad. Are you are you team?
I'm gonna win or team. I'm going. Oh, come on.
Oh, that's a kill. That is unfortunate. So so now we're getting into a bit of a
predicament because the previous stages if they went wrong, you could just just pause,
pause the quick, the game and go back, go back to the level select and the, and the continue to
retry the stage. But we don't have that luxury here if, if you, if you, if you, say even quit,
if you say the quit on this level, the game will actually punish you as its normal
punishment for losing by taking you back to the previous stage. So we would have to play
Gary the second all over again if we were to quit this stage and try again. And it's
usually not a good idea to do that but you are looking at the one person who would
I'm considerate and fortunately we like to worry about it and time GGs. That was quick
That yeah, that was what that was actually amazing what I was how are you feeling during that?
Cause it seemed like you were actually really well. I was just zoned in
And the game was giving us plenty of presents and presents in the form of just good block
RNG and in the sense that they were just running themselves out of panels when they normally
find clears and just waste more of your time.
But I was dialed in.
I don't know if Card mentioned specifically, but like the most challenging aspect of this
is like not just doing the 15 chain or whatever because what there are lots of good players
I can do that but I'm also looking over the opponent's screen while I am chaining. So this
looking over her split second and then getting back to my chain seeing what the both that the
best time to drop that chain is. So like I was dialed in with with my focus and the good execution
and good luck is what it takes to get a really good time in this run.
For first-pressure that screen that screen watching looking your opponent might be the most
difficult to part of learning the higher levels of the speed run.
Now before we go too much further about this, allow me to blow your mind's mind's chat
about how fast this category is. This was a really good run that was a person just put
put up right now like like in the in the low 20 minute range is not
something we see too often in this category.
Like insane for marathon, frankly.
Yeah, the world record for this category by the way is 12 minutes 47 seconds.
And wizard person's personal best of this category is 15 minutes 7 seconds.
So as good as this was, it was the close to a personal best.
It was not close to a world record.
That's just how random this category is.
When these opponents do not behave,
they will not behave for a long time.
We fully expect these runs to take 20 to 30 minutes.
But again, if you get the wrong RNG,
and you're not on your game that day,
runs can definitely go towards 40 minutes.
So that is why we basically have to have a 40 minute
for this category every time we present it in front of a marathon audience. So yeah, yeah,
was a person well done. Well, thankfully we've seen it all today. We had terrible RNG in the
first run and now we're having fantastic RNG. So we're getting it all today. But if you want
to take a moment to give them any like final shout outs, let everyone know where they can find
you if you stream anything like that. Now's a great time. Yeah, I go on and off with this game
just because it's very grindy, it's very RNG, heavy, and I kind of
run myself out on it and I come back, but I haven't been getting back into it
more recently, so if you want to follow me at twitch.tv slash wizard person
underscore and you want to see a much salty or rage fuel version of me as I
react to the battle I get at this game. Feel free to come hang out. I'm very friendly
despite my iron tortoise game at times. Thanks to cards for hopping in and doing
some incredible commentary on this game. It was like bringing things down for
the chat and sharing his analytical expertise because he has spent like
like literally over a decade on this game.
Maybe, maybe too long, maybe too long.
We have to be depending on the, in here you ask.
But yeah, I'm also regularly speed running these games.
This game in this series of games over
on my personal Twitch channel,
Twitch.tv slash cards of the heart to,
I also stream on YouTube and rumble and kick
you're into those sorts of flavors of live streams. And before we go, I definitely want to
make sure everyone is aware where we are hosting a monthly speedrun tournaments for this game.
What game? I've been making sure over the last several years to host host to annual
annual tournaments for not only this game, but one puzzle, but also Tetris attack. If you
are a fan of this series, but need to take things a slower speed. We do play Tetris Attack
as well as Pokemon Puzzle League. And we've also running a monthly tournaments for the past couple
years to feed into those big tournaments that we have at the end of every season. In fact,
and in fact, right at this moment is very good time to jump into our Pokemon Puzzle League
Terrence because our very next monthly tournament coming up, but we've named them after the
individual stages, but then Pokemon Puzzle League. So it's the lieutenant surge open
that is coming up next on our schedule. It's a set for the weekend of February 7th, and if you are
watching live right now, you can actually come to our Discord server at the league of puzzle
speedrunners, just Google League of Pulse of Speedrunners, and Shibilla, find us and our
YouTube channel where we have posted archives of our speedrun tournaments, and you come to our
Discord server and qualify for that tournament right now. You have a Twitch stream, you have
you have a way to to play this game, you're more than welcome to join us in the see what you can
do. Fortunately, you don't have to play super hard because super hard, the super hard
our category is reserved nowadays for the very finals of our end of your tournaments.
So you won't have to deal with the randomness that this level brings right away.
Hopefully that will make things a bit more newbie friendly to those just getting used to
this game in the speedrun for the first time.
But if you can do a five-chase, you can run this game, even a couple four-chains, so
and we're very supportive. We love having new community members. You look at the thing out with toprunners,
like me and cards and FFR Pro and the saw six in the chat and Tetris attacker. So
And also the League of puzzle speed runners gives me very much like Scott Tho Grim, League of
the story in German, like it's very honest, cool sounding name. I love it. Thank you both so
much for showcasing this. This was incredible. And like I said, the first time we've had
a puzzle game on the show and not going to be the last because that run was incredible.
We are going to take a quick little break as we get set up for our last run of parallel
not of the evening because we sell the scenery route coming up. We're going to be doing Pokemon trading card game
on hard mode featuring for a night that's going to be awesome. So don't go anywhere. We'll be back in just a few minutes.
So, Thursday, now before we get into our last run of the show and the, maybe the second
last time you'll see this Pikachu, I do want to let you know that we are currently looking
at back to Black 26, which is February 5th to 8th as a four day speed run marathon featuring
Black speed runners and benefiting race forward.
So, you can use Exclamation Mark schedule and Twitch chat to check out the event or visit
the GQ.GG slash BAF to learn more, and of course, Black and Flash is a community that
uplifts and connects Black speed runners of all levels, hosted in special events throughout
the year, like Back to Black 20.6, to raise money for charities and celebrate Black voices
in the speed running scene.
So likewise, use X-March BAF into a chat to learn more.
Now we have one more run for you today in the world of Pokemon.
That is a Pokemon trading card game on a hard mode featuring the legendary Super Mario 64
relay runner tour night and their commentator
pine cone.
How do you do in today?
Way to go.
Way to go.
Way to go.
We are doing excellent.
Thank you so much for the wonderful introduction.
As eloquently mentioned, I am the greatest red
coin at TikTok clock star getter a fall
time.
The no don't fact check me.
Don't fact check me, crowd.
But yes, well, welcome.
I'm Tornite. This is a very special way to play Pokemon TCG. You may remember me from the
20 million different playthroughs of this game, Pokemon TCG on Hotfix in the past. However,
this one's going to be a little bit different. This is hard mode. Hard mode is to kind of
very simplified the premise of it. Imagine doing a card game speed run with zero cards starting out
as opposed to the 80-ish 90 total car that you're typically starting out with.
So you may need one to introduce yourself, wait, hold on, this is a really cool mod.
No, it actually is not. As you can see, this is done on the officially on the Nintendo switch
online version of Pokemon TTG, and it's actually possible to do so on most official copies
imports of the game. The way we do this is by doing a said corruption glitch that is a little
bit too inside baseball for even my way of explaining it. But for stuff that is for a lot of the stuff
on the technical side of things and a lot of the things that we're going to be showing off
for the entire game, I have with me the wonderful pine cone with me on commentary.
Hey, good evening. Yes. I'm really excited to be able to show off hard mode on hot
fix. This started as a pretty humble category extension many years back when someone was
messing around with glitches and it's kind of blossomed into its own deep variant of trading
card game speeder and so thank you to our for bringing me along and we'll explain how
this works as we go as opposed. Right. So before we make sure that I am on the proper
Okay, I am a measure. I'm in the proper safe state. This is important for a very specific reason
That may or may not play a role in in about a minute or so. So I'm going to count this down. However the actual
Set-up to
Actually being able to do I run in the first place will start actually before I even start counting down
At the start of the game we get a free booster pack and luckily that booster pack has a lot of great car
But we are looking for one specific card hit run chant.
That is going to be our age for pretty much most of the first half of the run.
And it requires a orange manipulation that starts from the very beginning of
the software setting the game on which I just did.
And I have about 17.06 seconds from that software reset.
So I'm going to count us down from three, two, one, go.
And hopefully, we'll get it going and you know, this mailbox, this email is the only cards
the toronite has access to in the run at this point, because we start with zero cards.
That's what makes it hard mode.
And so toronite's doing is using the using a timer at the beginning of the R&D to open
that mail pack within a five frame window to get a very strong basic Pokemon to build a deck around
him and Chan. This manipulation is what makes a marathon consistent hard mode run even possible.
Discovered a couple years back by yours truly here. And Torna, that's really taking it to another level.
So far, first two tries haven't quite worked out. We're looking at a couple of early frames
for both of those. It is obviously a very difficult thing to
time that also looks a little bit on the a couple frames early maybe five six
frames or not. Now I am actually timing this on an iPhone time. So I'm basically
eyeballing this. If I'm not able to get this in the first couple of
tried, that is okay. I have another safe state that has this already done.
They'll hopefully, yes we do have that we do have a backup safety for this, but
it. Are you getting closer? Or slightly farther away. It's like six frames. I'll give
this two more goes. If not, then that is okay. We can just start to run with out, we're
going to another safe date. That just pretty much has to hit on Chen and we can go on our
merry way.
What's going on here at the shot? It's a very cool thing to show off.
Goop up. That is.
Oh, you are four five frames late.
Okay, yeah, it is extremely, extremely difficult.
One thing we also are not, people might not consider
are thinking to do the account.
It's the fact that these switch also has input delay.
So it's not just eye-balling thing,
but also having to do mental math in my head
as far as being able to do it, that's unfortunate.
That's fine, we can just start here.
Hello, the safe state, yeah.
Yeah, there's about five or six frames of input lag
switch virtual console and the manipulation window is five frames which makes it even harder
to hit. Luckily we have the safety backup save so we'll just use our imagination and be like
yep that definitely have it. So what Toro is doing now is the other source of cards without a deck
is to is this guy on the right the Toro I just talked to who gives you free energy if you have
under under 10 energy cards remaining in your inventory.
So what Toro did there is talk to the guy to get free energy
and build the deck of entirely energy to talk to him again
in order to get free energy, 20 free energy of every type.
And every card matters when you're playing a hard mode speed run.
So being able to get those extra energy really helps.
And now we're going to the earliest fights of the game.
Toro and I just going to assemble the deck and then there it is.
This is how I'm already.
And then going to be battling some of the early game fights, Tornaitz route focuses
on the early game fights that give you certain kinds of booster packs or four kinds of booster
packs in this game.
And Colis-CM is the booster pack that has about 80% 90% of the good cards that we use in
the speed run in it.
And so Tornaitz is doing these early quick battles that are required to beat the game and
give you policy of booster packs in order to improve his deck as fast as he can. So far
he's done okay, luck on this battle. It looks like, oh, that primate was a great news.
I had a feeling the fastest is going to happen. Yeah, I'll pin the fastest thing to do when
a trading card game speedrun is to reset out of danger, because the way card game dual
Bulls work is the battle either ends when you kill or KO a fixed number of Pokemon or if your opponent has no Pokemon remaining after you KO one, it'll just end.
And so it's often worth resetting until your opponent starts with only one Pokemon or only two Pokemon. Like this is a one on one battle here. So this is favorable odds. So Toronets going to go for this one and hopefully just go on put anything on the bench.
bench. There's one thing on the bench, but it's also manageable. So we'll see how it goes here.
The one thing Chath pointed out because of the the menuine and the screen background. This is not
quite a flashing lights warning, but I am assuming most of the run will be quick menuine
things like this. So if anyone is sensitive to this type of input or visual stimulus, you know,
you'll feel free to do whatever it is you need to do, but I'm imagining the rest of the run
will be very very quick just like this. Yep, yeah the menu in the training program is
extremely fast and it can be you know for some people that are sensitive such things. It's
a bit you know can be a bit much. Unfortunately yeah we've been getting good news about
had we just lock against Jessica here. Yeah we've been getting Rick roll the left and right
hopefully now this means oh perfect. Ooh luckily yeah this was a turn one win. The opponent
has no time to even play other Pokemon, which is ideal. Hopefully we get that more often
in the run. That's a great start. Other than, you know, with such quick menuing and so
most going on, for anyone that hasn't, you know, had experience either in real life or through
the game of playing the trading guard part game. What are we kind of looking at here? How
do the mechanics of the game work? What are we trying to accomplish? That kind of thing.
Yeah, so yeah, the Trinkard Game, we're basically mimicking the like structure of a mainline
Pokemon game and that there are eight gyms and you can do battles against trainers except
instead you're playing the actual mechanics of the physical card game where you have a deck
of 60 cards that has energy cards to power up your Pokemon, basic Pokemon and evolution
cards that you play to either Pokemon and then what are called trainer cards, which are
like little assisting items that help you, similar like potions that poke balls of
a game, similar items.
And so we're doing kind of these facsimile real Pokemon battles by playing with cards, where
you play cards into play to summon Pokemon, and you draw them from your deck and all of
that. So all of this really quick menuing is playing these real life Pokemon trading card game
battles by the by more or less the official rules against computer control opponents. And
so we're trying to basically complete as many card games as quickly as we can as fast as we
can.
for sure that you did say more or less and that is true. The pinion I'll
certain battles go. We may potentially be using strats that in the real world
TZG they have since made actually illegal just because of all the
shudders and managans that can be done with some of the things we may end up
doing. So hopefully how much done? Okay that's fine. Yeah you're all right. So
So there is one major rule difference that we exploit each and every battle.
So in the current rules and for most of the history of the trading card game in real life,
if you draw your starting hand of seven cards and you don't have a basic Pokemon, you
take a mole again and you draw a new hand and your opponent is allowed the option to draw
an extra card, which is a huge advantage.
In this video game that you are allowed to draw a new hand if you don't start with a
basic Pokemon in your hand, but your opponent gets no benefit.
That rule is huge for us because it means we can build decks that only have one Pokemon
in the Minaret of Garanty that we're always going to play with that same one Pokemon.
And that's pretty much the rule change that makes hard mode possible.
This deck right now only has Hitman Chan as it's only Pokemon, and that's how we're
able to start with Hitman Chan every single time, a very powerful basic Pokemon with
high HP and high damage attack that exploits a common weakness allowing us to take advantage
of these early game fights.
And we're a little bit late here but can we give some love the fat Pikachu?
I miss fat Pikachu.
I know fat Pikachu's coming back for I think it's the 30 35 year anniversary, whatever
so Pokemon's doing some fat Pikachu stuff but like let's give some love to the fat Pikachu.
Yeah, and depending on how long it's going to end up going we might actually get to see
fat Pikachu in our deck for a brief second.
That is true. One of the options for the route.
A lot of the hard-mote route will depend on what Pokemon
tornado acquires through these booster packs, and fat Pikachu is a beloved option for
the water cam coming up. We'll also see a few trainers have fat Pikachu
Hopefully, I guess we're now out of, I guess we've now encountered most of them.
But the other beloved Pikachu, I guess flying Pikachu was a form of fat Pikachu as well,
who makes a couple of appearances in the run.
We've already had one trainer that would have had flying Pikachu, and then we'll see flying
Pikachu hopefully, or hopefully we won't see flying Pikachu.
it's a big drawback for the speed run, but we may see flying
P2 later at the science gym. Yeah, and the one thing that makes
hard mode, you know, part mode, it's a fact that even easy
bites because of the fact that we have nothing but one hit
one chin and no trainer occurs to, you know, support us for
off the entirety of the run. Ooh, electobus. Ooh, electobus is
there. That is. Unfortunately, that means that our deck won't
have that P2 in there. Because electobus is another powerful
70 HP, basically, Pokemon similar to Hitman Chan,
but electric type.
Yeah, I'm doing lightning in this game.
Yeah, in the hope.
And honestly, I actually would not have
a minded effect because earlier I drew into a...
Ooh, the way I want to, you know what?
Let's play this one now.
You're going first, you got a chance, yeah.
Um, the, I also got as a Blue Spectre Ward.
The, one specific right shoe.
There are two right shoes in this game.
One of them is the one that we want and is one that can do as much as 60 damage with thunder
and also have the potential to be immune to all damage and status effects with agility,
which by the way, that's one of my favorite tropes of Pokemon TCG.
It's just moves that aren't that good in the regular RPG.
Just get massively buffed for the purposes of the train card.
Yeah, that is true.
You'll see names of attacks that mean nothing to like competitive Pokemon battling or
mainland Pokemon speedrunning that are our lifeblood here.
I mean, you'll also see attack names that are simply made up and have no analog in the
video game as well.
Yeah, I may have you know that a 10-1-chan is attack only does 20 damage with one energy.
It's just called jab.
It's like the most simple punch in all a boxing.
That's been our main damage dealer for most of this runs so far.
Yeah, him and Chan's jab back when the base fossil original Pokemon card game that
a game in real life, if him and Chan's jab was one of the most powerful attacks just because
how much damage they can do with only one energy on turn one, which is exactly the kind
of thing we're looking for in a speed run where we want to win as fast as possible.
So, very honest, assuming a tech name has a lot of consequences in here.
Well, anyone was watching the Pokemon Legends ZA run earlier.
We did a whole lot of boxing there too,
so that definitely between the Pikachu and the punches,
which you know, another P word,
we definitely have our theme for the night.
By the way, shout outs to,
shout outs to all the runners from today's episode.
I was watching those runs very, very carefully,
and they were a lot of fun.
Oh, okay, oh, this is actually really fun.
So this Borgon has made, oh, you know,
you can version two.
It's going to do the unwaverting two, yeah.
Okay, yeah.
It did a very bizarre thing that you can only see
in this one's particular instance.
So Borgon normally is weak to fighting.
The version two naturally changes Borgon's resistance.
However, it has decided it is going to make itself
also resistant to fighting.
And so it became both resistant and weak to fighting at the same time.
And you may be wondering, it's a way harder that work.
Well, the program was actually ought to something about it.
And what they did is they basically, there's a little bit of a formula in play when this
happens.
What it does is it does, based damage times two for weakness minus 30 for resistance.
So 40 times two, Monday's 30, is a 50.
And who said you can't learn anything
and speed running?
Yeah, yeah, you do need to do some mental math.
Yeah, weakness and resistance
will be pretty important throughout the run.
For those not familiar with the card game,
it's similar, but not exactly the same as the video game.
Pokemon have up to one weakness and up to one resistance.
If a Pokemon has weakness to your defending Pokemon
as weakness to your attacker's type,
then it will take double damage while you're taxed.
Fighting is the most common weakness
in the trading card game, which is part of why
I'm in China so powerful.
Resistance is a flat minus 30 damage.
No matter how much damage you are doing,
a resistance,
since ironically,
fighting is also the most common resistance
in the Pokemon trading card game.
And so I guess psychic is up there too.
But these will both,
both of these mechanics have huge effects
on the debt construction choices
that we make throughout this speedrun. We'll be trying to exploit weakness anywhere we can.
That's a little artwork is fantastic, by the way. It's just like fully armed legs out.
Yeah, shut up. There was a lot of work in this game. The artwork, the music, it's just all
just absolutely fantastic.
Yeah, taking the excellent art from the real world card game and translating it into beautiful
pixel art on the monochrome or not monochrome, the color-game voice screen is quite impressive.
All right, so up next is a particularly challenging early game fight Amanda. Unlike the other
fights, Amanda only requires you to KO3 Pokemon, which is the only way the only good thing
about this fight. The bad news is that Amanda is one of the few trainers in the game that
has many Pokemon that cover each other's weaknesses with resistance.
Amanda has a lot of Cyther, which is a free retreat
Pokemon that resist fighting.
And that fighting resistance is bad news for us,
but also has some strong water types that resist fire,
which is Cyther's weakness.
And then finally, Amanda has a bunch of cards that add more
basics or full-foe basic Pokemon to the bench,
making this battle often drag out for a long time.
So what we do is we splash in a charmander
to take care of Scyther.
And in this case, we didn't counter anything else.
So we got very lucky.
That was actually a super fast demand,
but normally a very scary fight.
But, you know, looks on our side of that one.
Yeah, yeah.
At the outside probably, you know,
there's a little bit of early game shenanigans
that is with a lot of Pokemon TCG runs.
We actually kind of now settle in.
And this runs actually off to a pretty solid start.
We're going to make a mention on this, but a couple of
fights ago. I got, I breathed a massive sigh of relief because
we got our win condition for the end game. We did not, we
didn't get a betrayal, which is going to be our ace for
the entirety of the, no, not the entirety, but almost
the entirety of the end game. Yes. Yeah. So in a
conventional speed run of training card game, we can
count on the cards that are included in the Starter deck when designing our route.
We can be like, well, we're going to start off at least one done trio so we can use
done trio at the end of the game.
But here we don't have that luxury.
So we really need to be paying close attention to what Pokemon we get from these booster
packs from battling these early trainers in order to, and if we don't get what we need,
we need to improvise.
Fortunately, Toro has been getting a wide variety of useful Pokemon.
Cyther here, for example, is what these using against steam,
which is pretty much, oh, wow.
You blinked in your misset, that was a super fast,
but I didn't have any time to explain Jim leader mechanics.
So I can do that in one chance.
I don't have time to do that.
That is true, yeah, yeah.
But so that early fights were doing were to collect cards
and to unlock all of the Jim leader fights,
which we need to beat the eight Jim leaders
or they're called club masters, but we know they're Jim leaders.
And then once we beat them, we fight the equivalent of Vealief for
in this game, which are called Grandmasters.
Unlike these early game fights, which are only have up to four Pokemon
KO needed to win, the Generators require up to six.
And the Generators actually cheat.
They will rig their shuffle decks to guarantee they start with two basic
Pokemon, and they guarantee that they'll have two more basic Pokemon in the top five
cards of their deck as well. So, generally, your battles are significantly harder just on that.
In addition, the decks tend to be better constructed, and so that's where the real, like,
fast decision-making and skill comes in, especially since Tornite is going in with somewhat unknown
decks that have varying quantities of cards, and will need to maybe improvise how to handle certain
situations. Yeah, so right now Toranite is fighting the EA one more stray battle
Joseph with who unlocks another can leader and then gonna go to the water gym with
elective us 70 HP basic Pokemon as well. Let's you take early game attacks and then
can do up to 40 damage with only two energy which with all the lightning we
Pokemon in the next segment is huge.
Now we're seeing a lot of point flips,
which are obvious RNG points.
I would just as a matter of what coin we get,
because I'm seeing like plus 10 damage or something to it,
and then you's going so fast,
but can you explain the point flips
and how important it is to the run?
Sure.
Yeah, for these Pokemon Electabuzz heads,
for the 200-year attack,
heads will boost the base 30 damage up to 40,
Tails will keep it at 30 but do 10 damage back to electabuzz. You can see damage are
presented with the black dots and so you have to be careful that you hopefully
don't get too many tails and also in general you want to use attacks with
coinflips as little as you can with electabuzz it's unavoidable just but coinflips
take about a second and a half each and that really adds up over the run.
There will be times especially in the water gym where favorable coinflips may need to be forced
at which point we'll show off in real time some R&T manipulation.
We'll explain those R&G mechanics as they come up just because that would eat all of our time.
But going into here we have the pre-Gim leader battle against Joshua.
He has the second most basic Pokemon in his deck of anyone in the game and so this tends
to be a long drawn out fight, so far, while Josh has a lot of Pokemon, none of them are
especially threatening, so this is a relatively safe fight, but it looks like that getting
tails is concerned.
So one thing that Tornex just did there, where he soft reset the game and kind of went
back in time in the battle, Pokemon Train Card Game kind of has its own equivalent of
save states called continue dual, which is that if you turn off the game and come back to it,
it will return you to the battle at your last most recently completed decision point,
which is really handy if you haven't finished clicking through all the menus about the decision
you just made, such as if you didn't attack and you don't like it. So what Toro did is realize that
that he was going to flip tails and then went back in time
basically to play a defender trainer,
which prevents damage to self in order to mitigate the effects
of that tails.
Using these kind of like information gathering techniques
with continued dual will happen throughout the run.
And it's a great way to make otherwise risky
strategies a lot safer.
And I want to take that opportunity to kind of dispel
a long-standing, uh, back to our, one of those, like,
new is under the truck rumors. Um, no, if you don't get, if you hit the A
button on the coin flip, when the Pikachu face, it just about to start
hitting. No, it is not an automatic head. It is predetermined.
And I, I, so many people believe that I believe that when I also
kid, because I thought, because I've read that online. So I'm just
here to also dispelled that rumor that you cannot manipulate the
going to live in that regard, it'd be cool. Yeah, unfortunately, that's not the
game. That said, there are a lot more cool ways to manipulate the
coin flip that we'll be doing probably in this battle. This is one of the
more important battles for coin flips. So the way the RNG works, just as
short as I can make the explanation, the RNG constantly increments
every frame, like a lot of old games, until you start a battle, at which point
the RNG stops incrementing until something needs a random number, at which point the
RNG will be incremented. And relatively few things need random numbers in the trading
card game, which means that it's like only when a coin is flipped or a deck is shuffled,
very rarely when a CPU makes a certain decision, and that's about it. So if you use an attack
and it gets tails.
You can use that continued rule feature to go back in time
and then maybe play a card that shuffles your deck
or play a card that flips a coin.
And then now the coin flip that you get
when you use that attack will be different.
Or maybe different, you know, 50-50 chance again.
Right, you got another role of the dice so...
Oh, I believe.
Unbelievably unlikely.
That is extremely rare to see in this category.
Yep.
So the good news is you gave us time to explain the R&G.
So, you know, happy act of it.
Oh, we're flipping the page.
And we just, you know, I'm just going to reset that fight.
Just try again.
Yeah, that's.
So Mysterious Fossil is a trainer card that we have that is basically a fake Pokemon.
It is useful to serve as a buffer to like take attacks and stuff while we're setting up.
But you shouldn't attach energy cards to it.
Yeah.
And Toro basically just kind of fumbled through the menu there.
doing this fast, it's really easy to make mistakes.
So that's another benefit of the constant saving
and resetting that we do is that you can go back
if you make an input mistake.
Yeah, now that we turn a lot of other speakers.
Now I did be naughty, naughty, and just actually
these switch-on lines rewind feature to just
undo that mistake that way, but we're trying to do this
legitimately, so yeah, that's outright cheating.
you know this legitimate method within the roles.
Okay, ooh, that's going to be, ooh, that's going to be actually a very, very good potential
RNG point flipping installation in this.
Yeah, after after a couple of false starts there and some really bad luck, the only thing
standing between Toro and Victory is a tail's here.
Smoke screen is an attack that gives you a 50-50 chance of it failing since Toro knows he got
tails he can play a pokeball to use up the tails and then he gets a new coin flip
for the attack to lock in the win. That is a perfect example of coin flip R&G manipulation
that Tornite just did to win that battle.
All right now we got two medals. We are now going to encounter our rival Ronald for the first
time and we have this incredible stat to get through Ronald. It's genuinely one of the greatest
and the last rat, uh,
strats and speed running his
three of all time. I, I did
do not. It is that powerful
that it's a guaranteed
one thousand percent.
Uh, sure progression.
We go up against one.
He got this. He got a little bit
looking. He got smugg, you know,
smelly-related Gary Oak energy.
It's again one get a Pokemon.
I mean, of course, the rivals
going to act that way. So we got
We are going to, let's see, hopefully we don't get confused, we don't get confused, all right, perfect.
So now that we go and set up Magnumite, oh wait, hold on no, I know, I know, I know, I know,
you lost, oh my goodness, like, that's what I felt just, you know, oh, let an awful
mistake, you know, oh no, all right, so, you were a little, you know, I listen, I was
all done. We got another chance. I did say this is a shirt fired. It's a grant for progression.
I never said winning. Yes, that there is no reason to win a rival fight in Pokemon trading
card game. The only reward is a card that we won't use and it's a six prize fight that takes
too long. So the fastest way through it is to guarantee a loss using a Pokemon that can KO itself.
And Magnumite, there's one we have a lot of that has the cheap attack to do it.
Shout out to AJ for coming up with that strap for intentional losing in the past before we
figure that out. We're just throwing out weak Pokemon and hoping Ronald would decide to win,
which he doesn't always do. So we force the issue of Magnumite. It's very nice.
Wow, a lot of the stuff in this game. It's already got a lot of things in this game really can be
credited to AJ. We even have a threat that we may potentially see in the next couple of fights
literally call AJ's friend because he,
because AJ is that influential to be the progression
of this game's speedrunning history.
Now when it comes to levels of the Pokemon,
like right now it has a level eight diglet,
which is punching above its weight on a level 35 there.
Part of the levels play into this is there any sort of,
they don't need to do, okay.
They do know that level is essentially part of the name of the card for this game.
So it's essentially just like the Pokemon's name is Diglet Level 8.
But there's no experience, there's no leveling up.
There is evolution from playing the evolve form of a Pokemon on top of its basic Pokemon form.
But Diglet Level 8 is just what the cards call.
And depending, there's one specific fight that I'm not sure glad you actually mentioned
brought to the attention to the level.
There's one fight in this game that I always absolutely love pointing out the levels that's
grep and see because you would never in a million years have to, it would ever see this
in a regular TTG or a regular Pokemon RPG game but a not going to spoil it just because
you will it's one of those like if you play this game long enough you will know what matchup
I will be referring to. Right yeah I'm just gonna say for now dig a level eight is really
punching above his weight here hanging out with these 30s and 40s and just two hit KO in the
mall. But yeah, no. The big thing for this lightning club, Jim Leader Battle here, is that
diglet and is that ball form done trio resist lightning. And so all these lightning
Pokemon basically cannot touch diglet. So other than status, it's only a matter of time before
this, this Jim Leader is defeated. It's almost a free fight.
Yeah, so right now I think so we're kind of going to a little bit of a boss rush.
Yeah, a little bit of a boss rush a second because the next few fights are just going to
be nothing but bosses.
So the trio is going to play a massive role in this.
Normally I don't include him much in and this one, but because we only have one the trio,
I'm going to play this a tiny bit safer and adding him much in.
into the boat. Yeah and you'll need to have a
champion that's why I'm honest. Yeah I'm sure.
So for the we're not battling Ken the fire gym leader.
And despite fire not having any weakness or
resistance or anything with fighting, Ken's duck happens
to have a lot of colorless normal type Pokemon in this
case, which who are weak to fighting. So
diglet and the trail remain a strong option.
stronger than the water type to it or back
those two.
That jiggly puff art oracle is something else.
It's like the angriest singing.
I'm interested.
Yeah, I think there's three different jiggly puffs
in this game and they all have phenomenal artwork.
Oh, am I?
Okay, maintenance.
Okay, this is gonna reroll the RNG,
so that is perfect.
I was gonna take an L right there,
I hope we get a tails here because that maintenance does shuffle your deck.
There we go.
Nice.
So heads would have made Taurus as 20 damage attack to 10 more, which would have KO'd right
as Toro was about out to win the fight.
So being able to see if you can save it saves a lot more time versus just restarting.
Boy, that haven't been shown to sure came in handy for this one.
The vibes of the haven't been shown being in the deck gave you the lucky needed.
You know, yeah, you know, when you're right, you're right.
So we do have some people in Chad just now joining this part
way through the run.
Do we want to take an opportunity to explain hard mode again?
Oh, absolutely.
Bank of Flores, yours, as we're about to deal with,
maybe the most annoying fight annoying boss fight
pre-pokement, though.
Yes.
So hard mode is a category extension of the normal
any percent glitchless speed run for Pokemon trading card
game where a saved corruption glitch is used to so that you start the game with no cards.
Which makes it very hard to play a card game.
So how Torneight has been doing this instead of having the dependable 90 cards that we
know.
We start with Torneight has been gathering cards anywhere he can from winning battles from a
A mailbox from a guy giving him free energy cards and basically kind of ad-libbing
The decks that he will be using to complete the trading card game right here
It's part-boat because you literally are routing on the fly as you play it
It's a lot more like a road like that speedrun at that point
And Toro's one of the best to do it
Yeah, I think I might be right now. There's I could be right. It might be one of three people ever to have done a sub-hour
or PB and this category.
That is true. I mean, yeah, one of the best to do it in a niche Pokemon game is maybe more limited, but you know, there are almost dozens of us.
But yeah, it's fine to hear.
It's fine to hear describe as a roe Blake because people have been with us for a while.
for a while, I remember our older team, which was so just like Roguelike's in Metroidvania,
so any opportunity to get something described as a Roguelike is always welcome.
All right, cool. We got a fair new way out.
No, the random elements, the, I mean, there's not literal primitive,
but in the speed run, you might as well have it. And then, you know, having to adapt on the flight
of what you get is, you know, brings up memories of Lake Slay of Spire, Belotro,
whether Roguelike card games kind of things, you know.
All right, so we got our fifth medal or badge however you want to call it.
It's time to see if the intended Magnumite Strad that was always there from the very beginning and not
the accidentally click myself this drunk is going to work this time. I have a feeling that we're going to get for Ronald free.
It's a hunch. I know it's hard not, but I just have a hunch.
All you got to do is not click the lose button. We'll see what happens.
Oh, you know, no process.
All right, literally the only thing that can go wrong in this fight is if you attach the lightning energy first.
I find it on. Oh, I don't know. It's fun. Should I not hit this one?
Um, I don't know. It's use, you know, look inside your heart decide what the heart of the card
I don't think I'm supposed to click this one.
Yeah, I don't think I was supposed to click this one.
Yeah, I don't think I was supposed to click this one.
Oh no, you lost again.
Oh no.
All right.
Well, yes, the Ronald second Ronald fight is much like the first.
There's no reason to win it because the reward is very little.
And the time loss is very great.
There will be one more Ronald fight at the very end of the game.
And we do have to win that one.
Hopefully that time will remember to not hit self-destruct.
But I want to go do we actually have to win that one?
Do we?
Up to you.
I mean, you know, you're the runner here, runner's choice.
But yeah, Torne, I picked up a Mewtwo here, which is a card you
unlock, a promotional card you unlock for beating the psychic gym.
And this Mewtwo level 60 is able to do 40 damage on turn two,
much like elective us, and through a mechanic where it can attach energy to
itself via the discard pile. We'll see if we're able to actually do that part. But it is a strong
psychic type attacker. Because all of the normal types in the game resist psychic, there's limited
battles where we can use it despite it being really powerful, but Mitch, the fighting type
gym leaders of perfect case for it. Unbelievable. First go at it. I'm still happy. Oh, I've got the oak
two so the oak puts the disc the energy cards that were in torrentized hand into the discard
pile so that M2 can use its attack to attach those energy cards directly to it saving two turns.
Big time safe there.
Yeah, now this is this is literally the optimal. This is like about as good as start opening hand
you could possibly ask for in in in hardwood. I am very very happy. This is a fight that if you
If you get really bad backshuffling R&G, oh boy, you're going to be in this fight for a while
because Mitch has a lot of very powerful, I damage dealing Pokemon, but thankfully,
on you two is King, so.
Yep.
Yeah, and fighting Pokemon in this game can do damage really quickly, so if you two
doesn't get that quick set up, it can be taken down before you two has a chance to attack.
So having that turn one locked in set up on the first try was a huge stroke of luck
for Tornite, really making the best use of the cards that we were able to randomly get.
And next up is Science Club, which science is not a type.
It's not a type in the card game.
It's not a type in the video game.
They'll use pipes in the TTG in 1998.
They have to invent a gym.
They're doing two types.
So there are only six types in the Pokemon trading card game in 98,
like other than colorless.
And so Rock Gym was one of the types invented,
which is really another form of fighting in this card game.
And then science, as best as we can tell,
it's like an analog for like bug or poison sort of kind of.
But yeah, all the Pokemon in Rick's deck
are also each to Psychics.
So in addition to M2, a more reliable strategy for Rick
is to use Abra in Cadabra.
And that's because Cadabra does slightly more damage
and can evolve and the evolution process
can cure status moves that sometimes can be Abra.
All right, by the way, you were mentioning
levels earlier.
Notice the level that M2,
notice the level on this Abra.
Have you noted that it is actually that if you're
to do places in the card game,
You literally, this literally cannot happen.
Abra does not know any moves other than teleport
at this point in time in the franchise.
Yep, yeah, the magic of treating card games,
a tiny level 10 Abra can beat literally the most powerful
Pokemon in the game and just a couple of turns.
And with the armor, the armor is just like
sitting under the tree having a picnic too.
Like, this is not the DBI just.
I just punch me too in the face like whatever I want.
I'm not even gonna stand up for it.
Yeah, we love chill, low effort, Abera.
Cadabra is significantly more hardcore in the art here.
Very, very focused in the tournament.
And just like that, the Rick Battles also done.
Yeah, I actually shadowed the pine cone
for actually inspiring me to use this strategy.
Typically, I would just only go for Abera Cadabra.
However, seeing pine cone over the past year,
using a hybrid Cadabra YouTube strategy for this fight
and then I think we're about to do.
actually kind of makes this portion of the run a tiny bit more consistent, believe it or not.
At least in my personal experience, so that is one of the cool things about Pokemon TCG.
The game is never truly optimized, and I think that's to its benefit, because this game rewards a lot of creativity
and it rewards experimentation, doing a lot of things that kind of goes against the norm
in some regards and a lot of times you just right gold. I mean, it wasn't, I mean,
pine cone, another example is the fact that for years, we did not even take a look at the
Bulbasaur deck as a potential starter option. And I wasn't so pine cone, I think like
whatever, talk like 2021, 2021, yeah, yeah, yeah. You kind of took a look at this deck and
thought yours up. Wait a minute, there's a lot of really good stuff to take advantage of.
And it's now basically the premier starter choice for top runners.
Like if you look at like every single top runner who has entered the top 10 and the last like few years with the exception of Rod and Trankish down us a rock by the way.
All of them have used included myself. Have you used the Bolsa or deck?
Right, unfortunately for hard mode we don't get any decks.
So I can't make it, but in all all serious and so yeah, this is not a game with a fixed route
Certainly not for hard mode, but even in the more conventional speedrunning games like
Anything from the decisions of the order of the battles you make to the cards that go into your deck
Which always varies a little bit every time but certainly in hard mode. It varies a lot
to which Pokemon you use
There's a significant like runner preference and experimentation there and so it's it's
They're very cool game for trying out new things
and seeing what works.
For this last segment before the dome,
we have to be the grass gym.
And so we're going with, you got plenty of top wrap-ups there, right?
I only got all the top on four,
and then unfortunately,
hard going straight to get, I got no wrap-in-ash,
but I do get base set MacMar, which is-
Base set MacMar, I see it.
So that's a good backup.
So these are both Pokemon,
but of the ability to do 30 fire damage by turn two,
and with grasses, usual typical weakness to fire.
That is often enough.
But yeah, the exact fire types you use
are gonna depend on what cards you get,
both in hard mode and in regular runs.
So unfortunately, it's got both plenty of time
and magmar and good quantities with your two strong options.
Yeah, there's a realistic chance in this category.
Actually, and even very rarely in 80% glitchless,
You do not get a chance to draw a single pony top in a single magmar.
So you at least for me, I'm left scrambling on the very rare occasions
that it happens to think of a new deck on the fly.
And whether it's trying to go for, oh, why am I, why am I staying the game?
Not yet.
The it's either, you know, going with Charmander again,
if I also happen to get Charmander because there's also a chance
I don't get Charmander or ground live.
I just said the one thing about this game is that you have to be prepared to think on the fly.
So a lot of this game is a lot of it is mental and that is one of the really cool things about this is the fact that
it challenges you in ways that traditional speed games typically don't.
It's being able to route things out on the fly and kind of do a lot of like quick mass that you otherwise don't really
don't really have to think about in others being it.
Like, I, I, I, I, I speedrun stuff like
going to your Mario Golfs by row, like none of those things
to have me rethinking everything that I know on the fly.
Yeah, not just in deck building, but also with
especially with in battles.
There is constant decision making being made.
You're being thrown in situations you haven't seen before,
where you have, you know, micro seconds to make it
a sit in optimally.
Microsoft. There's different ways.
I mean, you have you have as long as you want. I suppose, but every second counts of a speedrun, right?
But in the case, so being able to deal with things like this status here,
House Toro gonna get out of this one is Toro going to try to manipulate the battle beforehand is Toro going to
we're gonna have to see. I actually don't know.
Wait, okay.
I'm not going to carry it on me.
It's about the same thing as it was like, okay,
there's one thing going to fly.
Poison, okay, okay, 1998.
I can't think Monty G got a thing 1998 rules.
I can just pull it.
Just 10 damage here.
I can escape the damage as it's
gipped the poison and just have this fossil.
Yes.
Be the sacrificial limb.
Yeah.
So yeah, this is where mysterious fossil really
comes in handy because it doesn't
count as a basic for starting the battle,
like you still have to draw a conneta.
But it does count as a basic for giving you something that you can retreat into.
And if you retreat in 1999, I'm Pokemon at Cures status.
So it's a great way to get rid of the poison and to lock in the guaranteed W for the Niki fight here.
All right. So now we are actually only five fights away from beating the game.
And you think you're the man for an age really, really on their estimate.
Oh, for us, I'm going to need. I don't know how much time.
I don't know what the timer is right now.
There's a chance I'm going to need a good answer.
I'm going to need every second of it.
So, first of all, I'm going to answer here.
See that there's grandmasters, a deck table and everything.
Run away like a little baby and open my mail.
And see what bills I have to pay.
Right.
So, going back to the very beginning of the run,
when we had absolutely no cards,
our only source of cards was an email.
However, that works.
works. The game actually sends you emails as you challenge each of the gym leaders in order
to like help give you good cards and advice. But we haven't been checking them because we haven't
needed to. But now going into the Pokemon dome, we want as much reliability as possible. We want
to block our card count as much as possible. So we're just really quickly opening all these free
booster packs we get in the mail, which is maybe like 30 seconds, 45 second time penalty,
but ultimately the reliability is worth it.
We're getting some really key trainers in the call CM packs.
We got some like, we got a potion and an oak, I think.
We got some, we got a plus power, some really useful things
that will help us that last might even come in handy.
Yeah, that might be one I'm including just so I could scramble the AI here.
So let's see, I'm just going to see what I have.
Oh, there's a wrap at that.
Cool.
They're nice to me to show up.
I mean, now you have a wrap at that.
Let's see, what do I got?
You know, I'm not in love with our searching abilities.
So I'm actually going to go with Articuna, which I am more than okay with.
Yes. Yeah, there's a couple of options for this first leap for battle.
We're battling the grandmasters in the Pokemon Dome.
Now, Courtney has a multi-space fire deck.
So we want a water type. Articuna is, of course, you know, the water berth.
right in the game it's an ice-type but in the trading card game it's a water type because there's no ice and water beats fire
So normally this would be a terrible match up in the video game, but in the card game. It's a very good one
By the way, I'm about to kind of go through the first fight. I'm going I want to explain how every single member of this dome
Is using a legal car that should not ever be used and have never been used in real life
That is absolutely true. So the game has some Game Boy exclusive cards in them, including
the legendary Pokemon cards. That is, these are the cards that you're as a trainer are
hoping to win. And they, they're the three legendary birds and then Dragonite. All four
of these cards have an effect that happens as soon as you put them into play. Multi-trace,
for this battle has an effect that searches the user's deck to get more energy cards
probably the mildest of the effects for our purposes.
So these illegal, the illegal cards is then they can, they can, they've never been printed
in real life are giving the AI a huge advantage, they have a 100 HP and no weakness, so they
are very hard to take down.
So, we'll just have to do our best here.
Articuno is able to do 50-based damage with a 4 energy, which is, you know, 2-it-k-o,
on these 100 HP, multi-race, and then the water type advantage makes quick work
of all the other Pokemon in the battle.
So far, we're having pretty good luck.
Haven't had major issues with status or attacks.
the
multi-trace can can do 70 damage at once if it successfully flips a coin and gets three energy
fortunately Toro is able to kill this multi-trace before that happened
chat is a shouting out the incredible music that we have going right now
oh my god the music it's so good if you have ever had a like a free 30 minutes 45 minutes of
and just in the mood of listening to like some really good old school game boy soundtrack.
This is an excellent soundtrack to listen to.
Yes.
Yeah, the training card game soundtrack, I, when I was trying to pick a game to first start speed running,
one of my friends gave me the advice of pick a game whose music you could never get sick of,
and I immediately thought of training card game because every single one of these songs is a
but especially the Pokemon-down music.
So going into this next fight,
Tornait's going to be switching to a Diglet-Dub trio deck
that if I had guests, Tornait will be using for the rest of the run.
But this next fight, it's particularly useful for
as the legendary Pokemon is Zapdos and so it's a lightning deck
and a trio resist lightning.
Zapdos is the most problematic for us
and most annoying of the legendary birds.
There are three different kinds of saptos in the stack, but the legendary saptos with 100 HP is the biggest problem by a lot.
That one that we saw is also a problem.
Yeah, but the...
That's good.
Yeah, that's going to be tough.
So the problem with saptos is unlike every other lightning type, it resists fighting.
Now, Dutriot is such a powerful Pokemon that we're able to overpower that resistance,
but we need to have the Dutriot in order to do that.
do that and we only have one in the deck taking your chances on happening to draw the
Dump trio to right time, can be risky. Luckily we have cards like Pokeball that will help
us search for it and getting heads allows us to pick any Pokemon we want. Like that
Dump trio if we now have save for later.
Yeah, that's not going to be okay. All right. You know, all right, listen, we're having
a fun actually. I can try to see if we can, let's see if we can manipulate the energy
search will uh so the the thing that just happened is that Zaptos is on play Pokemon
power does 30 damage at random oh no I'm gonna keep on the only I'm gonna keep it
because I have the tree of all the non-attack and Clay we're not gonna get many chances
you get Diff Trio yeah that is fair oh and it didn't didn't even play this app
does not know that that tree is out that's very uh the AI does very strange that
actually that's not for great news because now everything completely re-randomized
So now, yes, there's a chance that that legend there is that those hints of
Meaning it's on Pokemon
So yeah, so that's after those those 30 damage without weakness or resistance to a random Pokemon on either side of the battle
So it was very very bad luck that it hit our Pokemon both times
Even after we moved to the RNG around using energy search
so
Our last case scenario was to evolve to Doug Trio so that even if the orange he hit again
We would still have 48p remaining
But for whatever reason of evolving to Doug Trio made the AI not play that's after us at least right away
so
Also a clever move there playing that defender saved up trio from the only regular attack in the deck one of the only two regular attacks in the deck that can actually
KO Doug Trio
Um, really are too explained that in the turn- Oh, there's another one. Oh my god.
Ah, okay. What options you got? I'm finding. Sorry, I think you can come. Okay, we can play the
particular. I'm going to play the Eclipse first. That is option one. Yes. Well, then see
it. That happens here. Perfect. All right, there we go. Perfect. All right. So the way, it's a
like very deep RNG fun facts. Um, Zaptos forced roles the RNG to decide which side of the
field to attack with that power. And then it picks a position on the field. Um, on. So first
it's guaranteed. So once it hits your side, it's guaranteed to hit something on your side with
that R&G value. But you can put things on the bench to decrease the chances of your active
Pokemon being the one that's KO'd. So we play the sacrificial diglet there to make sure our
championed of trio stays alive. A very quick on your feet thinking that allows us to save this
that all could have been a several minutes time loss for that.
Yeah, no, this is one again, one of those things. And believe it or not, have that
big list read not work. We actually had, I actually had a second way to get myself out of a
jam because of that maintenance card. I had that by and complete a second ago. This is okay.
So let me let it all out. This is the hardest fight in the game. It's not even close.
Yeah, I would say so.
This is Bifespar in absurdly difficult fight.
Jack has everything you could possibly
heat as a speedrunner of this game.
You want status effects.
You've got like 20 million of them.
You want high damage, dealing Pokemon.
Oh, hey, we can do, we can do lapers.
We can do several forms of articuno and a do gun.
So, and also, it's about, it has damaged sponges.
Uh, it's going, yeah, yeah, a chansey and the like, okay.
So this becomes very, very challenging because these 128-like,
or 98-p normal types for damaged sponging damage, like chansey,
that incentivizes you to pick a fighting type Pokemon to beat those quickly.
But all of these water types that if given room to set up,
we'll do 50 plus damage in one turn.
That incentivizes you to pick like a lightning type.
And so what do you do?
Or a general attacker that can do anything.
So what do you do?
In this case, given the cards that Torneye has received,
the Dutrio is probably the way to go.
But there's a lot of different battle outcomes
that could work against Torneye here.
So it kind of needs to wait for the perfect situation
or try to force it by using trainer cards at the right time.
Looks like that hookable did get head. So we are able to retrieve the one-dunk trail we have with this super important
He's debating I want to use a full heel here because it could KO the Ditto and he does
And I'm going to get that full heel back later, so that could potentially be really important
The only downside with the trio against these legendary birds with 100 HP is it is a three-hit KO with the earthquake attack
Um, instead of potential to the KO, it's something like Articuno's attack, but ultimately that trade-off is worth it to be able to one hit KO the damage
Sponkes because they can stall for so much time. That in a speed run, it's really important to, you know, you if you want to lose if you're if you're going to lose
You want to lose quickly. You don't want to win a slow fight in a speed run. You want to either lose quickly or win quickly. And so the trio definitely is kind of the all-in move for this fight
Oh, do I get do the other way up?
Oh, the tree was fully powered up, and oh, that do go on.
That's why that do go on gets three energy and evolves.
It can do 50 at once.
The luckily tornado had an energy removal in hand,
that he's able to go back in time and use.
So now, seal won't even bother to evolve,
which is very good news.
Uh, last one hit KO here, and now it's going to be a week to fighting.
Also one hit KO.
Yeah, you escape from like three different perilous situations.
situations and now on lots of super quick thinking, it's impossible to explain in time.
Now we get a bit of a breather in the who-and-o-rod is definitely the easiest of the four,
and the main reason for that is that rods, Pokemon, are very powerful, but they all require
evolving. And, you know, being a speedrunner, being a speed-based deck, we're trying to
we're doing a lot of damage really quickly. So, rod just doesn't have time to get his deck functional.
So, while it can go, you know, it's not guaranteed to be like a 30 second fighter or anything like that, things can still go wrong.
It's a bit lower stakes, it gives you a little room to breathe when you're preparing for the final fight of the game Ronald.
Okay, ah, this is him.
Okay, I think I know how to, this is a really dicey situation.
I think I know how I want to play this.
Okay, I think, yeah, I know how to, I definitely know how I want to play this.
Oh, actually, this actually worked out perfectly.
Yeah, I think you're all right now.
Yeah, there's certain edge cases where Charmallion can appear and be attacked on my turn to a play that can be really lethal for Diglet.
And Torna is trying to kind of be mindful.
That's like just a bit of energy removal.
That doesn't happen.
There we go. Okay.
I was actually in a really bad spot, believe it or not,
uh, Oklahoma, second day.
Yeah, I think you're safe now.
Right now.
But can you just come tell us how you believe you add more Pokemon to the deck, though?
I'm going to, yeah, so, okay, just bank on, just getting another, oh,
and two chances that I like to take the balls, at least one of them's got to be
heads right?
One of them, right?
Right?
Oh well, we tried.
It didn't matter.
They didn't matter.
They didn't matter.
Level 8, Diglin.
One level 8, Diglin.
Took out this game's version of lands.
Yep.
It's levels are truly wild in this game.
Levels are in the lead tower.
That means you're good one, right?
No.
Oh no, there's one more battle.
This is important.
It's Ronald and this time, we're not allowed to lose.
Oh, beautiful.
Does this about as good an opening hand as I could ask for if I'm actually being serious?
Oh, yes.
And you got the multirase start.
So Ronald has one of each of the legendary birds.
And you, if you remember what I said about Jim Leader's cheating, where they rigged the top of their deck,
um,
multirase is on playability that searches for energy cards also shuffles the deck.
So Ronald undid his own cheating.
shooting. So it's actually a very strong start for
Toron right here. In addition to our tan has all the
card team needs basically.
There's a little dicey. I'm going to I'm
think I'm going to need I am going to definitely
need some luck here. I don't know. I'll wait
now in our mind. I've got no you'll be in
care range after this. So I think you're I think
you're okay. Yeah. Yeah. Never mind. I forgot Ronald
does not know how to build a deck. Okay, quiz time
every buddy. Who is time everybody? You know
how we need energy corresponding in those
sentences with a Pokemon's type, you know, actually played the game and actually be able
to attack.
Maltre is okay.
You got to fire energy.
That makes sense.
Okay.
You got that those lightning energy.
You know what they do a lot of damage.
Or do you know, can do a fixed 40 to ran the Pokemon on the opponent's bench.
The knees water energy.
You're following me along, right?
Guess what he doesn't have.
Water and lightning energy.
He has none.
This is the worst.
and all fire energy deck with has which has like four Pokemon wasted on attacks they literally
can't use.
Now I know people like to say, oh well, and you know, lands is the worst champion of all
time.
Or they like to say, you know, I didn't like the ant of so much in X and white, no, Ronald
is the worst Pokemon champion of all time.
And, in fact, so much so that we spent this entire explanation, kind of, fucking down
That would be just one time it's going to come up in about 35 seconds.
Yep.
Yeah.
I got to skip through a few cutscenes, but that is the last battle of the game.
You've been presented with the legendary Pokemon cards and after a quick cutscene
to receive these legendary Pokemon cards.
Once the screen flashes to white from the overworld, that will be time.
Coming up in about 15 seconds.
It's even better if that's the final boss doesn't know how to make a Pokemon. Yeah, no, I
Because why not time coming up in three two one time time
Eugene's oh my god. What's that what was the time on that one?
Stream will catch up in a little bit but somewhere around just over an hour
Wow, that is
No, that is a phenomenal run, phenomenal, phenomenal run.
Most runs like your average art mode run can go anywhere from my high
10X to all the way to an hour, 20, if you're not careful, or if you're not
experience in this category, thankfully, I have, by the way, this is kind of like
a little bit of a historic run, this is the fastest art mode run in a
marathon setting ever.
That is true, but it's also the second one.
That's the third one.
If that's the third one.
Oh, really?
I actually did one two years ago.
The not go super well.
Last time I did it was last October.
And obviously, as we have a little bit of time,
I actually want to kind of share a little bit of the story.
How we actually got to this point are one of the full host
and we were talking a little bit.
You know, actually we met up a few weeks back before GDQ talking about the Mara really and everything because, you know, I am the greatest raccoing TikToks clock star of all time, you know, that's, you know, check to tape, check to tape.
But before, but we were talking and I had suggested the idea of like hard mode actually being a thing, it could Pokemon TG hard mode is a thing.
I never would have suggested that in a million years had it not been for one specific person,
and I want to get Rashad Ota and Kanchri Tana dedicated this run to Alara. Alara heads is
a wonderful member of this beat running community. She does not play Pokemon DCG whatsoever,
but she is a big fan of like very obscure, very niche, challenging types of speedruns.
And back in the summer, she, we were talking, we were in Pittsburgh, we were talking, and she, and all the proof, I don't know the blue, he said,
Well, tell me about this hard mode. You got in TCG. And she convinced me, I don't know how, she convinced me to submit this for an in-person event at the Pittsburgh Gaming Act expo.
Shoutout to Silver City Speedsters or organizing that event for giving me the chance to showcase that run.
That run, I have said time and time again since then, last October.
As far as like the overall what makes a marathon run so entertaining,
I consider that my magnum opus.
That was one of the greatest marathon runs I've ever done in probably whoever doing my entire life.
And it's given me the confidence to be able to showcase this game here on GDQ.
And the fact that this beat that run by almost 10 minutes,
it's honestly astonishing.
And I could not have done it
with if it wasn't for a lot,
I convinced me over six months ago,
which the butterfly effect is arriving to here today.
And I'm very, very gracious and thankful.
And I just do you for letting me be on your show.
But the entire Pokemon TCG speedrunning community,
it was the first game I ever learned how to speedrun.
It was what got me hooked into speedrunning in the first place.
I tried learning out again, but it was this game
that gave me the opportunity to do a lot of really cool things
in Pokemon TCG and speedrunning in general.
I would not be where I am today,
if we were not for this game.
I have met many wonderful people with this game,
Panko being one of the many people to do so.
I've been able to travel and to so many different places and all of that started with this game.
I cannot think this game enough and for speed running for giving me the opportunity to
you know, kind of put us all where we are at today and I am very very happy to be able to
to be here and you know, I just can't say enough great words about this game.
I can't say enough great words about the entire speed running.
lobby with all the people who are a part of this.
I am so, so thankful to have been to.
In more ways than one this game has enriched my life
to an unbelievable degree and this run,
it's just further proof of that.
I just want to thank everybody who basically got me to where I am today.
Third floor along with this speech, I know we did.
We are a little bit on the Ratsomit.
Um, if it's all right, I would like to showcase one or two things that
I'm going to actually kind of discovered literally minutes before we went live.
Um, yeah, let's do that.
And if you don't have chat open, Alara is here with us.
And there's a cutie at the end of the name.
So hello, hello, cutie.
Alara.
Welcome.
Thank you.
Alara, I, again, you are, you're an absolute rock star.
And I am so thankful to have met you.
No, it's going to require us to rewind all the way back over an hour ago.
And that is to, by my own way, this is a proper safe.
There we go, that's where I wanted.
Um, that's true. So let's, okay, let's set the table.
This is the same safe state that I started this entire one with.
Nothing, nothing, nothing. I mean, you see cards,
But zero zero zero you see nothing. Yeah, I've no death. I've no cars. They've stayed starts with no cards
And so you don't have a deck. So are you shouldn't have a deck, right? I shouldn't have a deck. I really shouldn't
Now
Let me show you
What is supposed to happen when we actually start a duel
What is supposed to happen is we actually are supposed to be shuffling
in infinitely because yeah because you have nothing to shuffle so the game just kind of
softlocks right but it looks like we found a new glitch and we're going to have to figure
out what this means in a little bit. Yeah say crafting glitch has more than
ways than one. We have this also hey brand new Pokemon card named after Toro.
You know this wasn't invented on the spot right now. Listen I'm just saying Nintendo
Kind of looked at that red coin TikTok log saw that I run this game saw this app is a
Lood
Bangorlp or one getting an hour 15 minutes on their estimate and they did a live patch up the game
By the way again, let me right out. I'm sure the this is a completely illegitimate
This is not a modded switch and no way shape or form. I'm in the game. I'm in the game everybody
So let's go to see
I'm both, I'm both simultaneously a trainer card and an energy card at the same time.
This is a very weird glitch.
Lots of strange things happen when Pokemon trading card game at the memory level.
This is a game that does have an ace glitch.
It has save corruptions, which is how we enabled this run.
And one of the other quirks is that if it doesn't know what, if the game doesn't know
what a card should be, it just decides to grass energy.
So we normally see that if a trainer card fails, but in this case, we're seeing it when they're ready.
I forgot to a new card being invented.
I forgot to mention, okay, we're gonna get the glitch.
Yeah, look at the text.
That is being put on.
Look at the text, a text, anybody that somebody that reads Japanese?
Can it please tell me what it actually gets attaching to crappy?
It looks like it's one letter over and over again.
It's attaching like, ah, or something.
So yeah, we are doing stuff.
We're going to end this officially with showing off
normally in American settings and I've done this at
Judy Gohapex appearances in the past.
Our boat starts the game path of the story.
So typically, I don't get a chance to show this off earlier.
But it's one of my favorite things, one of the cool things you can do.
If you're ever stuck in a battle, all you got to do is just
his select down A and by pressing B and then A and down at the same time you automatically
win the duel and you can just go on your merry way.
You can literally do this for any fight in the entire game and you can beat the game
that's how you beat the game in like 15-20 minutes.
Yeah, the reason that these runs are quote unquote glitchless even though they start
for glitches because there is a glitch to simply win the battle and so being able to
press a certain button command on a certain screen to cause two things to happen and once
causes this little dual escape crash um which the crash results in going back to the
overworld and the game is just like, oh you won't. So I'm a little thing to show off when
I get a minute like this. Yeah. Yeah, um I think Pokemon TGG speed running is going to have a very
interesting 2026. So if you are ever curious about wanting to learn this game, we are always
welcoming of new people. We have our own Discord server for that. If you go to speedrun.com,
you click on the game. We have a little button that'll take you to our Discord server. We are always
welcome for people joining in and just real quick shout out of you. Like what you see,
I've not only run this game or run a bunch of different game like I said earlier,
I'm in the middle of a challenge screen series where I am beating this game with decks that I have discovered through magazine
in scans and game guides from 25 years ago, and I'm going to try and beat the game with every single one of them.
So far, two decks down, both of them actually were successful to my surprise.
Alright, I've heard of something similar done with Dark Souls,
using like IGN and GameFacts guides. So like that's certainly not interesting dynamic.
Alright, I know we've been doing shoutouts for like 15 minutes now. Any last words before we
head out. You're all awesome and thank you so much for watching your all beautiful people.
Oh, well, that's very sweet. Yeah, thank you. Thank you very much.
I'm hosting my trading card game. Torne, it's been a great number of the community and
representative public face for this game as mentioned. Feel free to reach out on the discord if you have any interest if anyone has any interest in running the game
Check out either of our streams if you want to see speedrunners around the game
In a non-marathon setting and otherwise yeah, thanks everybody
Awesome well, thank you both so much for showcasing that you want to do some final shoutouts myself before we call the end of the show
So first off, once they thank you do everyone who has been here today. That's
Chris Sorris, living person, card of the heart, torrentite, and pine cone.
Thank you so much for the five of you.
Thank you to my wonderful producer, Richard.
We would join in us here on a Thursday.
We will be back, Carlos Pass, at our normally scheduled Monday night shows.
Well, at least until present day.
So, one more Monday, and then another Thursday,
seven to 10 p.m. Eastern.
And thank you all so much in the audience for showing out.
I wasn't sure how well Pokemon and puzzles and things would do.
We love keywords here.
So thank you all so much for being here. This will definitely not be the last time we've
featured Pokemon after all of you came out and definitely hung out with us, shared your
e-most, shared your energy. It's been a great night.
Don't go anywhere. We still have the scenic route coming right up after this with Osmoor
who's going to be doing some Minecraft. So one last time, Pikachu, wake goodbye to the audience.
We'll see you all in a couple of weeks. Bye-bye.
Hello everyone. My name is Osmore and welcome back to the GQ Hotrix. Thank you so much
of QD for that amazing episode of Parallel It's Pass,
an amazing Pokemon episode.
I absolutely love just the whole thing.
I hope you all did too.
And we are back here with another episode of the scenic route.
Before I begin, I just want to say,
happy answer your cat's questions day.
Your cat has a lot of questions.
And they've gone on answered.
And I feel like you've been ignoring them.
And I really think you should give them
the attention they deserve.
So, with that being said, here we are with a very special episode
of the scenic route tonight.
For those of you who are just tuning in for the first time
to the show, the scene that crowd is a show all about
a glitchless and no matter if you're glitches,
speedruns or rounds that just naturally have
a little to no glitches in them.
And so if you were interested in that kind of content,
again, we are here normally Mondays at 10 p.m.,
but we are moved to Thursday here because of the holiday
that happened on Monday.
And so with that being said, I'm very excited
for this episode.
It's all one run the entire episode.
And it's a race as a matter of fact.
Minecraft all advanced, but between the second and fourth
place holders, and so it's going to be very, very tight
for a second idea, but that being said,
I'm going to hand it over to doping you and Oxidiot
for an amazing race of Minecraft all advancements,
and I hope you all enjoy it for the rest of the night.
Take it away on.
Hello, oh my goodness.
I'm so excited to be here.
I'm Dessa Folder, one of the commentators
and I joined by Pack and obviously,
and I'm so excited to be watching these two runners face off,
drooping you, oxidative, two of my top 30 favorite
all-events and runners.
It's so nice to be here tonight.
How you doing?
Thank you so much.
So you're the top 30.
I'm on like 29, or like what's up?
Look, you're in the top 30.
I don't, it's unordered, okay?
It's unordered.
You know, you're both in there, but it's, it's, you know, I don't want to pick favorites, you know what I mean?
Anyways, the other commentator with me is packin' over you see, packin' to you on an inch or juice, what the players are doing tonight.
I, my name is Tak, and the players are going to be getting 80 advancements in less than three hours, hopefully.
They're already loaded into the sea, but they're just waiting to go.
This is, they're playing on the same sea, and we do have some randomness control,
but they mod it is going to be happening.
But if we're good to go, I think we're good to go.
You are good to go.
You give us a countdown whenever you are ready.
All right, three, two, one, go.
Good luck and have fun.
All right.
So, while all A runs are going to start in basically the exact same way, which is that we're
going to be looking for a deserts where the desert temple, the main method of transportation
throughout the speedruns is going to be using an alitra and rockets.
It's just the fastest, most consistent way to move around the world, and to make rockets
when you need the gunpowder from the temple.
There's a lot of other stuff that's very useful in the temple, we'll talk about each of
them as they come up.
I will say, 80 advancements is, I don't know if it's less or more than what I thought the
advancements in this game was, but I don't know why there's been sound right to me, but
it sounds like a lot.
It's getting three hours though, because they don't want to.
It's a weird number because you have this feeling when you're playing all advancements
like especially early on.
You're kind of like, hey, I've got like 30, 40 advancements.
I'm doing it really well.
But like some of the advancements are insanely easy and a lot of them are really hard, which
is similar to a lot of games, but like it's not really a linear thing.
So the number is kind of almost irrelevant to the category.
Yeah, that's true.
A lot of the progress in the run is doing multiple things at the same time.
If you're looking for multiple things at the same time and you'll get, obviously, the beginning
of the game is going to have bursts of advancements just because there's some very simple
ones.
But as you get into the mid game, you're going to have bursts of advancements.
You're going to see a couple of them pop up and then you're not going to see anything
for like 10 minutes, maybe.
No, no, no, no, no.
So, as we look at the sample, I see we have an enchanted golden apple, I knew that was there,
but I have to act it excited, anyways.
Oh my goodness, it's an old enchanted goal that people, that's so cool.
You feel that's awesome.
Yeah, so enchanted goal that Apple is a, what do they say on the show?
It's like a surprise tool that will help us later.
Is that what they say?
Yeah, it's a surprise tool that will help us later.
The Mickey Mouse Apple, what do you will?
Yes, exactly.
We've also got iron and diamonds.
So we're going to be able to make a diamond pickaxe, hopefully,
or, you know, they can do whatever they want,
the way a diamond post I want.
I'm gonna have a choice.
I'm gonna have a choice.
I'm gonna have a choice.
Yeah, just diamond post.
I'm gonna have a choice.
And then we've got some iron for a bucket.
Oh, why are we pretty moving all the time?
No, no, no, no, no.
It's all right.
He's going to a better place.
It's actually a natural arm.
It says,
I'm sorry.
Kill this iron golem,
But one of the advancements is to create an iron golem
so it'll all cancel out.
That's true.
Oh, it's minus one plus one later.
You gotta take life to give one.
I got it.
I got it.
Ox is something I don't know.
Yes.
I got four already.
Did you get three in?
But?
No, I think I got more because I'm an iron at that.
You both have iron sizes.
Oh, God.
Anyway, go on.
I think that's probably good point
time to mention, but while these players are both playing seeds that we provided them, they
don't know what's in the seed. So even though the gameplay looks really smooth and clean,
like they know exactly what they're doing, like they've already done this before,
this is a completely random seed from the runner's perspective right now. They have no idea,
other than fact that like, she messed up her portal, the instant you said,
I was looking at joypink's screen, I think. So I take a no blame for that one.
Yeah, even though these players look like they're doing everything like according to a script
It's just a generally speaking you do the same kind of thing. You're like in there
But this is a completely new seed at something that these players have never seen before
So it's just really impressive. It's kind of like a testament to how good these players are that they're able to play this early games so clean way
You really are definitely going to play this in the play this in the early game
How how similar do you expect the route to be between these two runners?
That's right, awesome question. And we were talking about this. We don't know what would make the most interesting is in my opinion
I hope that they fly the exact same direction at every point in the mid game and then it'll be like they're on each other's tails
But I don't know if that's gonna happen. It's I think it's unlikely they might stick on the same line
For the beginning of the mid game and when we say the mid game
And we'll talk about it again when it starts.
But that's when we're back in the overall world
that they're a lie to you.
I will be start flying.
Yeah.
It's weird to, at least from my perspective,
to refer to it as like mid-game and game,
only because you know, my privacy and privacy,
that's what a linear progression that most games have.
Yeah, I guess it's folder.
Let's talk about what, let's talk about the breakdown
of the three parts of the run.
Yeah, so I think something that's really interesting
about all advancements is that,
Unlike, well, I was about to say unlike other
speedrun categories, but I don't really know that.
So just forget I was saying anything there.
But unlike what you might expect,
all advancements really requires you to do multiple
speedruns in the same speedrun.
Like you have to be good at the any percent speedrun
of Minecraft where you kill the dragon as fast as possible
in order to be good at A.
You can't be good at A.
Without also being good at any percent.
But then beyond that, you still have to do
all of this other stuff for the run.
So of course, the early game is demarcated by this any percent split.
We have to go kill the dragon.
We have to go get in the light truck and the other end.
You don't do that 90% you just go through the fountain in your run ends.
But we have to go get a bunch of loot from the other end.
And then we're going to be doing a couple more things.
And then we're going to start the mid game, packed.
You want to talk about the mid game?
The mid game is the me and potatoes.
It's the entire life of the run.
It's where all the interesting parts happened.
And this stuff, this bastion stuff, you've got any percent.
Everyone's seen this.
You've seen this before, right?
You've watched YouTube video, you've seen XYZ do there.
I got a sub-15 in Minecraft sort of video maybe.
The main game is where we're going to be working towards, what is it?
Five big advancements.
You've got adventuring time, which is finding all the biomes.
You've got two bites too, which is breeding all the mobs.
monster hunter, which is killing all the
hostile mobs, and you've got balanced
diet, which is eating all the food, and
then you've got a complete catalog,
which is tangling all the cats.
Those are the big ones that you're
focused on. Those are the multi-part
advancements you can call them, because
all of them have several criteria that
you have to meet.
I guess this is, there's also a
It's going on for a straight-up.
Yeah, yeah.
I sure like sure.
So we should be just going to this bastion.
Yeah.
This is a housing bastion.
There's four bastion types.
This one's a housing, you can tell that it's a housing
because it's housing, I don't really know that.
You can tell that you have a housing.
It's not the end yet.
Exactly.
Yeah.
All the bastions really good.
My favorite bastion is treasure, but I know every A.A.
player hates treasure, and I know you're going to give us a treasure.
Yeah, see, but I decided to be nice.
So that was nice.
And you narrowly avoid's death to that gast,
lowering his render distance to unload the gast,
so it couldn't shoot him anymore.
Almost shot him off the ground for a second time and killed him.
So great job to do it, Pingu,
and surviving that somewhat stressful moment
while we were yapping like crazy and calm.
He's being panicked.
Yeah.
I was scared, man.
I was like, did we implement the piece of button
in the version of the mod?
I see, did you get it?
No, I have 15.
No, I just didn't see anything.
Yeah, so both of our players were looking really sad.
I guess if you haven't watched a lot of Minecraft speedruns,
you don't really know what that means.
But we were watching both of these players, and they're kind of looking around in the bastion,
looking kind of confused, not really moving super fast, like you would expect in the speedrun.
That's because neither of them got 20 of the city in from the bastion.
I can you want to explain what that means?
Yeah, sure.
So Obsidian is used to leave and enter the
other dimension.
Obviously, you can make another portal using 10 of
Cidin, but the reason that you would want 20 is if you
have 20, you can build one portal wherever you want to to leave.
And we're going to be doing that right at the
spawner.
And then we're going to go to the overworld and throw an eye
event there.
And then we're going to figure out where the
stronghold is located.
We're going to go back into the
another and use the remaining 10 obsidian to go directly to where the
stronghold is. The reason you want to do this in that
another is because the another is on a scale of 8 to 1 with the
overworld. So any means of travel is 8 times faster in
another. A distance of 800 blocks becomes only 100 blocks.
Yeah. So that's the reason you want to really well with your
resources because not only is it 8 times closer to use 8 times
fewer, you use one eighth of the resources to get somewhere and when it comes to pearls
which you can use to teleport for the significant distance and food which you need to recover
your health after you use a pearl. That's really important because you only have so many pearls.
You don't want to use eight times a million pearls. That would be extremely slow.
So normally it would be slightly problematic if you only had, I think you guys had 15 or 16
of sitting in. However, I was so nice to the runners and gave them a diamond pickaxe which means
we can watch them sit here and buy in Obsidian for a minute instead.
Beautiful.
Yeah.
Which is a fantastic time to read out donations for you.
That's a thing, or do you think?
We don't have any donations here on GDU HotTex, but of course, we do have some
announcements that we like to tell people during the show and one thing that I can
definitely say is we are having one of those special coming up soon called GameStone Blindfolded.
things you can be on blindfolded, G-U-HAFX is mostly a special games done blindfolded showcase
in February 21st, 22nd.
As submissions are now open, want to take part, type X mission point, G-D-B in chat for more
details.
And while we're here, I do want to just say one thing about this one, and ask this question.
And that is, we have a side most that while this is random, skeety glitchless, to see
of course that it's here by the commentators. The runners do not know what in the seat of
put a course for the safety of a marathon type run. Of course we can't just have a random
seat that could possibly not be finishing the necessary hours. But you also mentioned that
the runners are paying on a mod of some time. Could you speak on that a little bit? Of course.
So, folder and I have been developing this mod for tournament purposes, but it works just
fine for our own chief standardization.
After main things they literally knew to ring it, but yeah.
Okay.
Well, I wasn't going to bring that up, but yes.
Yeah.
And the reason a little bit of this matter is because, although there is seed dependent
RNG, for example, when you load up the same seed, you're going to get the same structures,
and the same loot in the structures, things like blaze, which is dropping blaze rods is
still completely separate.
We wouldn't want Pingu for example to get seven rods from seven
bases and oxy to get zero rods from seven places.
So the mod just makes it so that that orange is also dependent on the
seat itself.
So they're going to have the same and that's going to be the same for
their partners.
It's going to be the same for blazer rates.
It's going to be the same for basically any RNG source that I
slash folder, thoughts would be necessary.
And I think we've covered our base as pretty well.
Yeah.
And it's quite necessary because you might hear that
that somebody who's not super familiar with a lot of vansons
and do like, oh, what's the big deal?
You can just play the faster, make up the time for it.
But all advancements is notorious
for being an extremely random category.
Obviously there's a lot of skill involved,
but there's also a lot of luck.
You need to be skilled in order to play the category
consistently, so that you can get lucky.
And there's, I mean, in theory,
it could take you an infinite amount of time.
If you get a lucky enough to complete the run.
The link, there's so many different RNG checks
within an all-invance and so on.
You could go three for three on whether there's Delta and Skulls
and you're out in the span of what, like, 10, 20, 30 seconds
or you could go what?
We've seen people go zero for like 300
on whether they're sales and soles,
which is the span of like dozens of minutes.
That's not a good time differential for these two players.
Realistically, that probably wouldn't happen,
but it's just going to be way, way cleaner and easier to follow
what's going on, honestly.
In the players are getting the same R&G for different actions.
Done, I think, I think that's perfect.
I mean, that's good to have that sort of standardization.
And to be that way, it can be a better viewer experience
and a runner experience, I imagine it
can come to some seconds.
So what are the other things you say if you were experienced?
Yeah, one of the most of all, it's how parts of AA is thunder.
you need a thunder to be able to finish her run and it's completely random.
There's nothing you can do about it and if you don't get it to thunder, you can't finish
the run. There's one advancement at very very frightening where you need it to be
undering and if it isn't undering, you just can't get the advancement. There is a hole.
Oh my goodness Lord. Thank you. You are so good. I'm sorry, Pak. You were watching that, right?
Where we all was a beautiful zero cycle.
That was a one and eight, two plus two, zero cycle.
Oh, my goodness.
Thank goodness this isn't horse because, you know,
I'm not oxy's a fantastic player, but any player of my
crush you don't know, would kind of struggle to match that.
That was wild. I did just spoil a small aspect of the zero
four oxy, but that's okay.
if you know I was kind of thinking about this idea before that like the information that we
give to the runners might you know like theoretically we could spoil information for one runner
business. Yeah, but you would only ever spoil something for the person that's behind
and you actually tell about it. It's like a rubber banding effect right like in warrior cards like
a rubber banding so it's it's fine. Oxi gets a five bad zero cycle which also not what is
It's impressive, but it's fine, it's fine, it's fine, trust me, it's fine.
But yeah, we've got a beautiful outer end here, courtesy of someone that's really good at
seed finding.
It's we have here talking about yourself, oh my goodness.
Thank you.
So this is, when you get to the outer end, of course, like we said, the alightra is the main
method of transportation, the way to get the alightra is in a end city ship.
So not only can you get an entity, you need to get one that also has a ship.
Here we've gotten a seed that has very, very close ships.
So we're going to get here and maybe just a minute from entering the outer end.
And then we're going to be flying around.
Just one alitra isn't going to cut it unfortunately.
The durability of the alitra is it's one second of flight time per wonderability.
So I think you get seven and a half minutes of flights
unenchanted up to about 28 minutes with unbreaking three,
which they do both have it unbreaking three book.
So we're gonna look to get about three of light shows
is good for a three hour run,
is what they're gonna be looking for.
And this ship over here that's cut off,
that's a generation quirk, I won't get into it,
even though I would love to.
But the reason it matters is there is no a light trip on that ship.
It's a very rare occurrence, probably about one in a thousand
to push up, but it means there's no a light trip there.
So that ship does not have to most important item for it to have.
What else is it looking for in this in the city for?
Yeah, so speaking of the city and speaking of RNG
centers as standardization, goodness graciousness,
is quite the word, like we were talking about earlier.
Something else that's centeredized here
that we've centeredized in the mod
that normally wouldn't be standard.
Goodness gracious, I've said that we're like five times.
Are the shells that we're getting
from these little box guys called shalkers?
So shalkershells are very, very useful
because if you have two shalkershells and a chest,
you can make a shalker box,
which is essentially an extension to your inventory.
Now really, it's a chest that you can place down and pick up
essentially.
Basically, all advanced players play
of two shalker boxes.
That means that we need to get four shalker shells.
I really struggled to do the hunt math
and I had fell on.
I mean, it's good times to get those.
Let's not worry about it, okay.
We already talked about the two plus two earlier.
It's fantastic.
But yeah, the shell drops are standardized,
so it's a 50% chance,
but each of these players has to kill the exact same number
of shalkers to get four shalker shells.
Once we've got that and our loot,
we're gonna be good to get out of here.
We're mostly looking for a full set of diamond armor, ideally,
we'll get in chance if we can,
but we're not looking for specific of chance on armor.
Well, we're taking tools and armor that have
in chance that we want, of course.
But we don't require them getting out of here
because we're going to go to the enchantings,
but pretty soon, which we'll talk about when we get there.
But yeah, we're just looking for resources.
And you mentioned in chance on armor.
Let's go.
Let's go through some enchantets that are very helpful
in the all advancements category.
There are three inshents that are actual hard requirements
for the run.
Those are one channeling, but you need
for very, very frightening.
It allows you to summon thunder while it is thundering.
One is piercing, which we will need
for two advancements later.
piercing goes on the crossbow.
Let's see how multiple moms within the air have.
And then the third required is soap touch,
which is needed to pick up beehives.
But there's a lot of insurance that are just very nice to have.
Looting is a big one, looting on your sword gets more not drops.
Yeah, we're not playing around with that looting.
That's for sure.
Yeah.
Looting is interesting because you say required.
And I was thinking like, oh, what are you going to say?
But then yeah, those three are required as
and you literally cannot complete all of that since run
without them.
There's a lot more that are kind of pseudo-required in the sense
that if you don't get them, a lot of players will just reset.
Like you say, looting is a good example.
In chance when you're helmet,
are usually not necessary,
so you can play with that aquafinity or respiration,
which help you do stuff underwater.
But you almost always want to get depth strider,
which allows you to move faster underwater,
obviously moving faster is good and speed run.
So it's pretty useful.
And it's also almost,
for reasons that we'll explain later,
it's very useful towards the end of the run.
Um, but yeah, tool and chance, though, I would say are almost more, well, you really need an efficiency pick, uh, it's probably a big one, other than that.
I mean, I'm interested in what I'll do doing with that. So I'm sorry here.
Yeah, we were talking over this shulker transport as we call it, um, the biggest advancement of the run is called How to Be Get Here, which is Get Every Effect.
What are the effects in the game is a limitation which you get from shulkers to get this effect later
We are going to bring a shulker to the overall. We missed it with oxia. I don't know if Pingu have you done? Transporea
Okay, so we'll be able to see it again with Pingu in an in a moment
But the way it works is we can put a shulker in a boat
We can fishing rod the boat and then by manipulating our render distance
we can unload it in a special way that we can then pull the rod back in from a super
fight-assence and then the boat will go flying and we can move the churn the
shulker across hundreds of blocks to a gateway and then the gateway is going to let us
bring it to the end island and then we'll do another transport to get it to the
overworld. Shulker transport is the coolest trick in a, maybe it is. It's not
There's a lot of fun tricks to be fair,
but Shulker transport is definitely one of the more enjoyable ones to watch.
It's always fun to see somebody do it with no F3 too,
because you just have no idea what's going on.
Yeah, but in this setting out for transport,
we're going to see we're bridging out,
and then I'll just let you watch for a moment here.
Yeah, fishing rod, shoulder in boats,
and we're going to go on a short trip.
Does this hurt the shoulder?
I'm like, you didn't need to...
Does this hurt the shoulder?
No.
I'm going to let you decide to punch it.
So, but if done properly, it should be harmless to our shoulder.
There is something called air-eat there, which is that you punch the shoulder off
before flying away.
Friction is actually a mechanic in Minecraft.
You typically don't really think about it, but it is there.
and there's friction.
So when you pull a boat that's on a block,
it has a certain amount of friction.
You lose approximately one-third.
It's one-third, right?
Something like that.
You lose a certain amount of your momentum
that gets applied to the boat when you reel it in.
So if you punch it off beforehand,
and then you unload the boat,
so it's just gonna stay floating there
in the unloaded chunk, you are able to pull it
and it'll basically keep all of its momentum.
So it'll move a lot faster.
It'll move a lot farther, a lot faster,
it's just easier to manage in general.
It took us a couple of years to actually think about area I think.
It took a long time to get on the... on the accident because I did have a run.
My sugar went like lying.
I was like, oh wait.
I can't remember what that was actually.
That's not bad.
There was an evil dark age for all advancements where we would put the sugar in
and put the sugar in a mine cart, and mine carted to the overworld.
That, I mean, it's like building a roller coaster park.
You know, it takes a long, long time to do that.
Yeah.
Early all advancements runs.
You said it's gonna put me down for our marathons.
So, yeah, there was so much.
It's kind of fascinating because you see an all advancements run now
and playing 26 and you're like, oh, this all kind of looks like it makes sense.
Like, yeah, like you see a lot of strats that you're like,
oh, I don't fully understand what's going on there.
But like, it looks like it makes sense
or belongs in a speed run.
But if you look at an older a speed run,
it's so confusing because it's just a ridiculous,
it's so much slower, it's so much longer
that it almost looks like a completely different category.
I feel like, like with any percent,
any percent hasn't changed that much, right?
Like, it's still like a lot of the bulk of the run,
you can still recognize it,
but there's so much stuff that they were doing
these old speedruns that you just would never see anymore.
Hours of time loss, trying to get a gas
in the overall, do I get a nice idea?
There we go. Now, Pinky is back in the overall world.
And as you can see, we have our shoulder in our boat
in the overall world.
We're gonna leave him there.
He's gonna be just fine, probably.
And we're gonna come back to him in a boat.
Those two floors.
Oh, he's a prize pool that's gonna have a lighter.
Yes.
This category is a lot of surprise tools not the right-eye value. I'll see you
You're one of them
Maybe maybe I'm bad. I'm sorry
Thanks eating this year
It should be one short one twenty
But you just get a shun can do it
Oh, I see you're on the other side. Okay, okay, that's my bad. I didn't know how that worked
interesting. Yeah, this is why folder is
a didn't worry. And I see. But while we were doing that,
Pingu has gotten lapis. There was something there that also took a lot of
math from a very smart individual called Matthew Bowlin to be a very
lapis. It's an interesting experiment in
nomad of determinism that Matthew Bowlin had a lot of interesting
math techniques that improve to Minecraft speedrunning.
Oh, yeah, that's right.
I don't know how you do it.
Yeah.
Anyways, what not, you will discover there's a good chance.
You might have seen a video of this for diamonds.
But the same thing applies for Lapis.
There's clay patches that you can see in rivers.
And because of the way that Minecraft's internal random generator works,
It generates the lapis on a consistent,
on a decently consistent offset to where the clay gets generated.
So if you see a clay patch, you can go some number of blocks
in the positive z direction, and then if you dig straight down,
you will find lapis.
And this works most of the time.
Most two-astores, we're going to have to give a lot of
Astrix is to most there.
But yeah, it's also one of those strategies
where kind of as you get better at it,
you can do it more reliably.
Because obviously there's a counting aspect,
which is not like a, it's kind of a binary thing,
either you do it or you don't.
But you can also do other tricks,
like digging around like four blocks around
if you don't get lost, that's that kind of thing.
That can help you normalize out the strange situations
that can occur with the strategy.
At this point, both of our players are in the other world.
Thank you has finished in Shanseng, and Oxidia is about to start.
This is a 26 minutes into the run.
I would say this is a very good pace for a long.
It's solid.
I think something that's interesting about it is because, of course, these players haven't
seen the scene before, compared to a set seed, speedrun of Minecraft all-downments.
This is quite slow.
I think normally we're here like what 10 to 11-12 minutes in an acid-free run.
And compared to the runs that these players that were watching are resetting for in AARSG,
this isn't even, like this is obviously this is fast, like it's world record pace,
but it's also like, it's not like super fast, like it's not like,
like joyping you would not be losing this mind right now, I think. It would be good,
but it's losing it's similar to the resistance.
The reasons for something to be related to, and then with folder.
Something that rhymes with, I was trying to think of something other rhymes with
I'm going to go to the lines with Dassa folder, but I'm going to go to the folder, that's not
folder.
Yeah.
All right.
Rest of the word.
That's a little bit too simple.
I still don't wish to go to the thunderous record.
So, yeah, let's talk about the thunderous record.
Do I ping you here?
Proud owner of the two hour and two minutes underless world record.
Underless was something I was talking about earlier before one of our commentators
commentator is rudely cut me off.
We'll show you what we can about it.
I was saying that thunder is a very volatile thing in the run.
You have no control over it, it's fully random and you need it.
And it can never happen.
Like there is a chance that it just never happens.
Obviously with our RNG mod, that is not the case because that would be mean.
that's the thunder list, it's kind of a real category,
but it is something that we, as a community, keep track of,
because it's basically just as much of a,
it's very close to a completion
and a thunder list run,
which just means you didn't have someone,
one R and G element.
So the two of us who thunder list record is by Pingu,
the actual world record is only three minutes slower,
to 205. That's by Fymburg. Where was I going with this? I'm not sure. We're
going to mention Thunder Standardization is Thunder Standardized. I don't
actually know. This is not a issue for you, too. It is. It is. It is. Don't get
mad at me. Relax. Is this the same as draft thunder or is it? It's
it's. Now I'm curious. It will be a thunder. There will be a thunder.
That's something I can't go wrong. And it'll be exciting. I'm welcome to
is the wiping use like healing the entire ocean right now.
Okay.
So fishkill.
This is what we call fishkill.
Fishkill is kind of the unofficial official star of what we were referring to earlier
than mid game.
One of the big advancements is Timing all the cats, a complete catalog, and it's a
Timing cats you need fish.
And so before we start flying around to all of our temples and all of our villages, we're going to
up on fish so that we can tame the cats. It's a one in three chance to tame per fish.
And there's 11 cat breeds. Boyping here is a very lucky runner. He got a black cat. I don't know if
oxy will get the same black cat. I don't know. I don't know if that's right.
I don't know where you obviously have to choose.
Yeah, the same village.
I mean there's a lot to forget that they're not in this game. I always forget all the
different enemies that you can tame at this point. I like this place. This is like so
seldomly casually. That is nice to learn about. All these things right here. Yeah, the
Black Cat is a little interesting because it can only spawn on one specific phase of
the moon or in swampats. swampats still spawn there all the time and it'll guarantee
almost all the time.
Unless there's a specific block that is known to happen that if it happens, we'll talk about it,
but we don't need to worry about it, or they can spawn in villages if it is that phase of the moon.
And that phase of the moon happens to coincide with the first 20 minutes, which are the first in
Yang Day of the run. So when you load into a world at zero minutes into the run,
your spawn village is what we call it. That's the village that you, is that spawn?
You can throw that in. And one of those cats can be a black cat. If that happens, that's
nice because then you don't need to think about finding a swamp hut. But swamp hut is not like
a super rare thing to do is. Yeah. And so both of these players are basically going to get roughly
enough fish that they're pretty confident, but unless they get really unlucky, they'll be able
to tame all of them Caprians.
And I'm already starting the mid-game.
When?
Don't worry, but I'm sure it's fine.
Pack wouldn't give you a better NGC.
Uh, okay.
Really?
But, yeah, so something we were talking about earlier,
that's kind of coming up now, is we were starting the mid-game.
And something that's very well known about A is that this is where runs start to diverge.
Up until this point, everything is basically proven theory, like you're not going to do something.
You're not going to do something weird and wacky up until this point.
Like sometimes like, yeah, there's certain situations that call for certain backloads,
you do something later on the run, that kind of thing.
99% of the time you want your good run to look exactly like this run is look like
please, you run this up into this point.
You want to do your early game, you want to get your light show, you want to do your
enchance, and then you want to do your fish kill.
And fish kill is a time in the run where everything diverges.
We have no idea what's going to happen.
We don't know what directions runners are going to go.
They've built even necessarily know what direction they're going to go.
They're going to be looking at the seeds thinking, hey,
I think there's a good desert in the structure.
I'm going to go check with this desert, try to get more temples, try to get more gun
patterns, so maybe you can fly further, maybe you're going to see an ocean nearby and
think, hey, I need to go back to that ocean later, or maybe the other one is going to
think, hey, that ocean doesn't look very good, I'm going to look for one later in the
one.
It's completely subjective.
Well, I mean, it's fairly subjective as things go in speed runs.
You can definitely, definitely, some players are much better at this.
We call it the routing of the seed that others are, but it's a lot more fluid and a lot more
flexible than the routing up until it's
playing the seat, which is still, of course,
flexible because it's a random seat.
You've never played it before.
You don't know do I run to the left and the other,
do I run to the right and the other,
but those are much simpler decisions than what is
going to go on for the rest of this run, basically.
And it's very likely that we'll see these players,
locations, their plays, the order of advancements they have,
what they're doing, it's started to diverge quite a bit,
as we get deeper and deeper into them again.
I do appreciate your honor, boo, hon.
I was talking to, I knew three hit a runner who was like,
when it comes to the games of heavy RNG, especially when it comes to seeded runs like this, or just like
Roblox, the ability to be able to site read a seed and to have a work peer favor is something that I absolutely
admire and any sort of run. And the part of the reason why I don't speed run Roblox or heavy RNG runs
myself, but that is definitely a translates to here, I would say. I think that that is, I mean, the
The routing is the biggest skill of the category.
Doing each individual piece quickly, of course, is nice,
but there's no, there's one advancement that's difficult.
Everything else is pretty easy to do on its own.
The routing, as we say, is the difficulty of the run.
Figuring out a good way to get to all of the places
that you need to go in an efficient manner.
And without backtracking, backtracking is like,
what's the cardinal sitting in all advancements?
Yeah, yeah, the cardinal sitting.
The cardinal sitting.
Backtracking is, as it would sound,
whenever you go back to somewhere where you already were,
because if you do that, you were doing two things.
One, you were wasting time flying back to something
that you could have done before,
and two, you are not loading new chunks.
Um, loading chunks is very important because you want to see as much terrain as you can.
Because you need to find the rare biomes.
We'll talk more about the rare biomes as they come up, but as the name implies they are rare.
They're not, they're not like planes and forests and deserts where you can see them everywhere.
Yeah, which are also known to as common biomes.
No one says that.
There's a common.
We could have spread in serious misinformation.
I have a hard time believing you when you say it's only a weird answer.
Just a little like like it's fine.
It's fine.
There is two uncommon biomes though.
That's true.
The deep frozen ocean and the warm ocean.
Hopefully that will be a problem.
You know, it's kind of ironic that we call them.
We divide them into common uncommon rare biomes.
every all advancements completed run. You get all of them. So they're kind of all on equal footing there.
Well, here's the thing. And I know we talked about this in Oxi's first hot fix run,
but I want to say it again here. There's a lot of asterisks on these so-called all advancements
because even though you have to guess all of the biomes, there's a lot of biens that you don't
and actually have to get, don't ask me, I didn't make the game.
Trust me, we're grateful that you don't have to get modified jungle edge.
If you made it to your own, or sure, make the very amount of venture launch.
What do you think they removed that by a game?
So, we've discussed this before, but it is kind of incredible how all these little minor
decisions in Minecraft, like, if these little things were slightly off, this category would just be unplayable.
like it's it's barely functional as it is. So people still play it. It's
a little bit of put it. It's a miracle that this one is just long enough to
put an episode of this show. Yeah. Yeah. Honestly. That was in the case like two
years ago. So. Can we do it back up? Yeah. Just like a
paneling book in this temple.
You're a five.
Yeah, and this temple at the court and it's negative one.
So you're trying your opposite.
No, no.
Okay, so channeling.
I was talking about the earlier advancement for
thunder, called very, very frightening.
It requires you to have a trident and shandard with
channeling and throw it at a villager while it is thundering and then it will turn the
villager into a witch and that's the advancement. For this you need three rare things to
happen. One you need to thundering. If I were to talk about that unlikely it doesn't happen
a lot, stupid RNG. Two you need to try it. If you look at oxy we're flying through oceans,
we're looking for crowns holding pointy sticks. We want the pointy stick. We need one.
and then you need channeling.
Channelings are annoying because it's kind of rare
and we don't have that many levels to in-chanted.
Like, Ox is down to 33 right now.
So getting it is kind of inconsistent
and it's very annoying not to be able to get it.
So getting a book that just has channeling on it
is super, super nice.
Yeah.
And this is like one of those inflection points
in the run that we were kind of discussing
the possibility of earlier.
We were talking about RNG and it's like,
Yes, a lot of the RNGs sanitized, and I mean, to be fair,
this temple that has this channeling book exists for oxidative, too.
It's in her seat somewhere.
But there's such a thing as like, brain RNG.
It's not a skill issue.
It's just you go in a different direction.
You get different temples.
That's the way it is.
And now it's possible.
Oxie could lose a fair amount of time
trying to get a channeling in channeling in channeling on or trying
as well.
But hopefully she makes up the time in some other way.
I can't think of anything, actually.
Maybe she finds another one against her, but surely.
You're perfect.
I think I'm on the channel plan on oxidizing.
Like.
Okay. Yeah.
Oh, I'm a fan of the plan.
Yeah.
That's unfortunate.
I'm a part of the plan.
We need you to cheer for.
I do.
I can do.
Of course.
I will.
I will cheer for you.
I'm so sorry.
Of course.
Well, I'm so good.
No, I'm going to say, hearing y'all say,
we need three rare things to happen or to get this advanced
And is, you've made me thought of this like,
are A runners okay?
Like, how many?
No, no, no, no, no, no.
Not at all.
Oh my goodness.
No, I see.
It's like the saltiest category ever.
I would love to see the live.
So these runners were, you see the amount of attempts
they've had and the amount of attempts they've completed
over these points.
Oh, it's like insane.
It's concerning.
It's your concern.
You could fill a warm ocean with a player's tears at this point.
Like, it's just, it's a struggle, this category.
Hello, Warden.
It's a huge idea, let us see.
I was, let us see.
I was trying to think of like, an all advancements like,
come on, that wasn't that bad.
That was okay, okay.
Okay.
Our tears warm when you like start crying at an ocean.
I think something like that.
Well, there were ones they fall into the ocean.
I mean, that's just how it works, right?
It's a much larger body of water, is that right?
Something I want to point out right now.
Something a dropper used doing in.
So dropping you, we already mentioned the dropping you is the Thunderleus World Record Folder.
It has been for some amount of time now.
I don't actually remember what would not happen.
I was lost here though.
What's that?
Okay.
Okay.
Are you betrayed that I don't remember the date of your thunderleus World Record?
Well, it's just funny.
You say it's so long on it.
I thought it was like, you look at the window.
Okay.
Look, within the last 12 months,
Joy-Pingue got the All Advancements Thunderless World Record
very impressive time.
Now, as a viewer, of course, don't know Joy-Pingue.
I mean, maybe you do.
I don't, like, I'm not, I'm not you.
I'm not you.
But something that Joy-Pingue is quite known for
within the All Advancements community
is being a very innovative player.
This is not always rewarded in all advancements.
In fact, it's really frequently not rewarded all advancements.
These little time saves, if like a quarter second here,
quarter second pair don't really sum up to like beating these massive
time saves of being able to play the game for like 14 hours a day and
get a better seat. Not saying that like this is super crunchy category
anything but like it's just kind of the way it is. Now the thing is is
that dopeing you is very well known for these little time saves so
we'll do like crazy things is bulls eye advancement he'll use TNT he'll
use like you know the ice thing on your boots I don't know or on
I thought it was a walker, but I thought it was a trap door, but who knows, we'll see it.
He's well known for his temple strategies. I forget the name, but they're really cool.
Lots and lots of stuff, and something don't worry about it.
Something I wanted to point out is that for a while now,
Now, doping you has had his pearls on his hop-art.
So when you come out of the end,
you usually have some amount of pearls that you used
to get a two-year-old Ultra.
You're gonna have some leftover ender pearls.
And at that point in the run,
you're typically not a point where you've killed an ender
might get.
So an ender might as a mob that spawns one in 20 times
when you throw an ender pearl.
So it's got a 5% chance of spawning,
whenever you throw an ender pearl.
And ender pearls are kind of annoying
to get in the mid game of an old atmosphere.
They're just like, you're not getting in the mid game.
So if you don't have an endermite, and you don't have endoproils,
or you have endoproils that can your sugar box that you've saved,
it's going to be a while, usually,
before you're going to throw all those endoproils
and get your endermite.
Something that do I think it's been doing
is that he's been keeping his endoproils on his hop bar
during the run and just throwing them whatever
he gets a good opportunity.
It takes some health from him, which is actually good.
He wants to eat more food so that he can not
complete the all foods advancement.
That's not actually all foods, but it's like most of the foods,
but some foods are more all than others.
It's just the way it is.
Yeah, he's something that's more than all of the others, the wild state.
It's the way it is, you know, it's the way it is in a lot of advancements.
Some advancements are powerful, then other is.
Pingu, why did we punch that villager?
Well, I need to do this.
Oh, okay.
I thought he did something mean to you.
Okay.
Can we just kind of cool a little overlapped over here?
Yeah, what's up, dude?
There's no farms in these villages.
is
and also I am sorry.
Carats,
carrots, what a lovely vegetable that many A runners
make right away.
The delicious and no carrots.
I do they live.
It's my toasted syrup.
I don't know if they got the food.
Well,
maybe they're lying away.
Shuffling like thieves or something,
they go and roll out their villages.
villages. They like fly in with their light troughs and steal a bunch of wheat and then fly
away, pulled on. That's us. Anyone.
What you're talking about more about? Oh, oh, oh, they're on Pingus screen for a moment there.
I saw the snowy biome. Oh, we're flying away from it for now. There's a reason for that.
In snowy, in every rare biome, there are, you have like a mental checklist of things you
you need to do. It changes for each biome, but there's everybody in Master Hacklist. One of the items on this
snowy checklist is to kill a stray. The stray is a variant of the skeleton, but in only spawn in a snowy
biome. And it has to spawn at night time because it requires access to the sky. So it can't spawn
in a cave during the day. It has to spawn at night. Which means you don't want to go to a snowy
during the day. So a thing he was doing is backloading. He's waiting to go to the snowy until
it's nighttime because otherwise we're just going to be sitting in the snowy waiting for a
response. So we're doing other things until we can go to the snowy.
Yeah. And as you say, you've got checklists for every biome that includes both the rare
biomes, the medium rare biomes, and well done biomes. For example, this plan. You're looking
in the plains, you know, you want to breed some chickens, get some food from the chickens,
kind of overlapping that while we're waiting here for the snowy night time, so, well, sorry,
I see you all in the May, that was all just for the bit, that was all for the night.
The well done, the well done and the medium rare, how do you like your steak folder? I'm
a medium rare guy, what are you? I haven't had a steak in the last like, maybe in the last
decade actually. So I just like, he's not. I don't really like it. Stake is just not appealing to me.
I don't know where I got one frankly. It seems expensive. I also a medium rare guy. I think it's really okay.
And speaking of medium rare, we're in a medium rare by right now. This is of course the Lukeworm Ocean, which was
Which was kind of the more interesting. I guess it's a real
Tetted ocean the oh
No, that's disgusting it. Tingu is just bathing and I don't like it. Nuss
Tudgy is it good or
We have a pole going on. No, no, no, no, I'm just in three cats
Stake darkness fall on my goodness. Hey, you didn't put a I don't eat steak in here like
I can't respond.
Oh, that's fair.
You don't need to respond, folder.
That's okay.
The people don't want my thoughts on stake.
I will say, not only you and with anyone that is running one of those voting well done right now,
I am judging you harshly internally, but that is just me and my opinion.
It's fine.
Speaking of judging, actually, this is a good kind of mention.
and then, oh my goodness.
And Pingu gets a complete catalog completed,
so that's a pretty big one.
Let's go, let's go.
That's correct.
I've been saying a lot to be there with you.
I'm gonna hand it to.
Now, I'm gonna say three of these guys.
Let's scroll on this one too, man.
Let's see what I'm gonna do.
Ah, so now you're back to life.
I'll do it.
Now, if you're wondering Osmoan or deer viewer,
How are these trackers, how are these runners, yeah, no, I'm not sure what these trackers
are.
Keeping track of all of the cats that they need, I mean, they need 11 cats, how are you
going to remember that?
I mean, you just told me that they didn't know.
Let's cut this off, they just know.
They just know.
Cool.
Cool. So with that being said, Pengu is in a beautiful
egg blue. I don't know what how much he has.
Why we're in a ravine. He's setting up for
egg blue bulls. I think. But he's being
griefed by this incredible ravine. This is crazy.
So let's talk about the snowy checklist.
One of the things that you do when you are in the snowy
biome is zombie doctor. The reason, so zombie doctor is
you have to cure a zombie villager. You can give a
zombie villager a golden apple while it has the weakens effect and then it will start converting back to a regular villager
and a let's play or survival world. You would do this because it gives you cheaper trades,
much, much cheaper trades. We don't really care about that, but you do need to do it for the advancements.
Did our ballistic there? It's a beautiful, our ballistic set up.
Do I think you're so much? What an incredible player? No, I don't ever see on the mountain
player, do you know that?
Yeah, nobody else.
Nobody in their right mind would do that,
our ballistics setup.
But it's beautiful, honestly, it's art, I think.
I like the idea that like, while you're,
I think something I like about Minecraft,
speedrunning, is that you can kind of make artistic
statements in your game play.
You know what I mean?
Because there's so much room for creativity.
Of course, a lot of people will play just the same way.
It's really, it's really people play this goal, I said.
Oh, yeah, let's watch this.
We placed in a torch, a trapdoor, and a button, and then we're going to place a one arrow in the center, and then we're going to fly away, and then bulls on.
It's wonderful. Using the delay of the button, and of course, the delay of the redstone torch, which is a certain number of game takes that I don't quite remember off the palm of the head.
To get delay for that arrow going down into the target block.
One point I want you to know is what it is. I was going to, but then again, one of our commentators,
It was the bull side, you can't talk about anything else when you're watching a bull side.
There's just something incredible to view in that sound.
So anyway, snowy checklist, zombie doctor is what I was talking about.
The reason you do this in a snowy is because you need a zombie villager,
zombie villagers are kind of annoying to get.
You could obviously weigh at the night and hope that one spawns,
but that's not a very good strategy.
my mom tells me often hope is not a strategy. So we don't do that. We look for an
igloo with a basement specifically which will always have as on a
villager in it. And while it's converting, that conversion process takes three to
five minutes, asterisk. We're not going to talk about it. We do a lot of other
things including we are breathing rabbits right now. We're waiting for the
nightfall. The night starts at 15 minutes. We're going to kill a stray very soon.
And we also did our ballistic, we grow our beat roots,
you need to eat beat roots, you need to make beat roots soup.
What else do you do here, Pingu?
And I think you've noticed that you do hired help,
the goal, but I don't have enough iron for that.
Sometimes people will kill the weather here,
but that requires a very specific ordering
to see if it's not super likely.
Yeah.
There's also, so a lot of these miniature tasks that you need to do, like growing up
the beat with it's and creating a single mob, we would refer to as miscellaneous things.
And one of these big things is horse donkey and mule, which I think is probably like the
most annoying breed that doesn't require a rare biome, and seepings appear as a lended.
Yeah. Yeah. Okay. My fault. Well, I mean, I would call like medium rare at best, but yeah.
Can you drop this bit? Which is, you know, the way this is done.
You mean, rare, bro. Plains is not medium rare. This is, well, what do you want to
all be on? It's well done. It's the medium well. Like what do you want it?
I can't get my whole weight, medium well, that's crazy.
Is that a thing, I'm not a steak person, so...
Fuller is just holding up, not my whole view.
Yeah, it's rare, medium, medium, medium, medium well, and well then.
Oh, okay, interesting.
You're a good chat question here that I'm going to answer,
talking about pingue typing in chat.
So, pingue will sometimes type numbers into this chat,
and that's because it's a very long speedrun,
and we're in a snowy biome, snowy is cold.
And when you're cold it makes it hard to move your fingers and obviously we need to have
different movements and keyboard control. So we type into the chat to keep our fingers warm
so that we can stay at the top of our game for the entire run.
Alternatively, you can head into this well done biome which is pretty warm because it's been more
cut. But that's also true. Very smart. I do like the reality that boy can you just
like doing math on the side while he's waiting for something that happened during the run.
Yeah, it's a question.
That's one of the very reason there isn't there isn't that.
It's Rubik's human calculation, right?
He's planning out Rubik's human.
Yeah, Rubik's human.
Right, it's no, of course.
That's one of the advancements, actually.
Now, the real reason is, as we said, routing is the biggest skill
in the category and backtracking is the cardinal.
Similarly, category.
So you need to know where you're going and where you've already been.
What Pingu is typing in chat is coordinate
rounded to the nearest thousand of where he's been.
So he writes negative three in chat.
He'll put nothing if it's X and I think he'll
put Z if it's the Z coordinate.
Just to help him keep track of where he's been.
And then he can scroll up in his chat later
and see all of the coordinates.
And then he'll be like, OK, I've already
been the direction.
Let me go fly this other direction.
And that's another one of those kind of niche
joyping use strategy is except it's actually a good one because a lot of players just forget
where they've been like me. So yeah, you should do this if you're doing all the assets
your own assets. It's a good idea.
But of course, something that we were going to get to earlier that I think now might be
a good time to get back to. We're talking about remembering things. What's going on
the run where we've been that kind of thing? And of course, Pingu is making use of one utility,
which is the chat box.
But there's another utility that both as players
are almost certainly making use of,
that we can't see in the background,
which is doing a lot more tracking for them.
And you almost brought this up pack earlier.
Oh, really?
Oxi is only 30 miles behind the rocks.
That's good.
It's fine.
Oh, yeah.
It's so blow up your wolves.
I can't imagine what could be going that one day on the other screen.
Only good things.
I'm not really sure if you're going to get into the next one.
Wow, still need two cats, but how does Oxi know she still needs two cats?
Now of course back in the old days you would remember this.
You'd go into your brain and you'd be inscribing it on like those little,
little game rate sales and that tells you how many cuts you have. But it doesn't tell you
which one does it in one press. Yes. If you press L in game unless you rebound it
it'll bring up the in game advancements menu and you can see it'll say like complete
catalog 9 out of 11. Wow that was a really good time for me to bring that up. But
it'll tell you how many. But there is an external program which thank you folder. I was
was going to bring this up for the track.
We've been going towards this for the last like 10 minutes,
but yeah.
Yeah.
There's an extra for three of the trackers that
well, it tracks things.
It tracks everything that you could possibly want to remember.
It shows you all of the advancements that you've done
and haven't done.
And more importantly, it shows you the 11 cats, for example,
in which of the, which nine you've already done
and which two you're still missing.
Which is very useful.
It does this for biomes as well.
Each individual biome that you need to do,
it'll have it on there.
The trackers are very, very useful tool.
And there's another thing, which is Ninja Brainbot,
which is who we used to find the stronghold,
but it also keeps track of where or end-game structures are.
Those are the monuments and the outputs.
We'll talk about those again later.
But those are also.
It's worth noting that those are manuals.
So you do have to do an input in game in order to get the engineering bot to save those
coordinates, whereas the tracker stuff is all automatic.
So it's reading or statistics file, it's reading your advancements file, and so that way
can know if you've gotten certain things or not, because all of this is just stored in
files in the game, essentially.
Yep.
Okay.
Let's talk about, there's a jungle over there, let's be the fault.
And no, we also just flew through a mega-type.
I have to make a single.
Well, you know, we call it a skill issue and you know, it's a race and like I said my money
So I think you push it doesn't
Wait, my money is on our money is on auction. Yeah, actually, can you figure it out? I got money on you. I'm sorry. I mean
How do you have the seed?
This would be really helpful in the
The new
Money events is how they are 80 advancements and currently I don't know where we have pack or like maybe like 40 50 advancements
I honestly have no idea
I'm 38.
Martin Luther King.
Yes.
Good guess.
But I that lot that we should be done in like an hour.
Right?
Wow.
Wow.
What's going on?
But he just abused you of that notion.
So actually, I was going on.
But he said that there is a subcategory that is called half percent as the name implies.
It requires you to get half of the advancements.
Any 40 of the 80 that you want.
Now the A person, not the N%.
A world record is two hours and five minutes. How fast do you think the half percent of world record is?
Logic would dictate that it's like an hour, but I think it's like more like like 30 minutes or something
Right, I think it's actually close to 20 if I remember correctly. I don't know
2018 13 minutes. Yeah 13
Yeah, so the advancements do not scale linearly
is the point here. Um, getting half of the
advancements does not mean we are half like the
run unfortunately. And that's because a lot of the
advancements are just like, get this one item or it's
this one. 14. 41 says Justin and chat. That's wild.
Big, big, monkey. Yes, taking it.
It's a big shout out.
It doesn't, it doesn't, it doesn't. There's like a
there's like a world out there where some all of the
I spent 13 minutes on the first 40 and then an hour and a half on the lacks 40.
Yeah, that's what we've been doing the whole time, actually.
I mean, it's not too different, it's just there's a bunch of little things that you can
overlaut better in a full run that you just obviously aren't overlapping in a 13 minute run.
You're just, for a loading two.
One of them just a cat.
Point out, Big Big Mungie took the half percent world record from the way Pinguea.
Yeah, we had a little back in the glorious battle, right?
Where we would both clip for like one bit of time.
And it's finally jungle time.
So as we were talking about this, rarebiles,
we did snowy already.
We also ran into a mega tiger.
I was talking about checklists.
The mega tiger checklist is get mega tiger bioman leaf.
The jungle checklist is more involved.
jungle is inverse of this snowy. If you're oxidative, you're kicking yourself because it's 59 minutes and it's about the turn day. So we're not going to get a strike.
Almost ready to go to the United States. Okay, beautiful. The jungle is the opposite. The jungle you want to hit at daytime.
The reason for this is because one of the items in your checklist is also lots.
Osloots are kind of weird, specifically you're breeding two osloots.
Yes, yes, we need to breed two osloots because you need to breed all of the moms that can be, except not really. Anyways.
The osloots are the ones.
Sorry, I don't know if that's something tender, don't know if it's, I don't think I have them.
Right, so when he says intended jungle humans, the one that I looked at the seed for,
I will say to both of you, there's a bamboo jungle, I'm not sure, I'm not sure, I'm not sure.
So also lots, also it's a weird, they're passive mob in the fact that they can't hurt you
and they don't want to hurt you, which makes them like chickens or cows or sheep.
However, internally, they are hostile mods, like creepers and zombies.
And what this means is that they also have hostile mod spawning mechanics, which means
they share the same mob cap.
I don't want to get too detailed here, but if it's nice.
Mob cap is not too complicated.
Essentially, in Mob cap, there's a limit on the number of hostile mods I can spawn.
Once you hit the number first, 70, you don't spawn anymore.
So yeah, so if it's night time and you've got a bunch of creepers and skeletons, you're not going to get any more oscillate spawns or at least it's annoying to get more.
So you want to find a jungle at daytime so that none of those exist and then the only hostile mobs they're going to be spawning are oscillates.
You'll see players sometimes fly straight up to try to refresh spawns.
Flying straight up with the studs is hostile moms will de-spawn the moment that they are
128 blocks away from the player. So if you fly straight up, a hundred blocks above the ground,
they'll disappear and then when you come back down they can start spawning again and you can get
a fresh batch of hostile mobs and hopefully some oscillates with them.
I think the last one is in that all the time for a wellness break that we could leave you here on
I'm going to read the lyrics.
Oh yeah, for that's one hour.
Yes.
I was going to send that when they can pause.
That's all right.
Pink is already paused.
Oh, okay.
Pink is on pause.
Pink is on pause.
Pink is on pause.
No, I'm not.
Okay.
Three, two, one.
Pause.
I guess.
All right.
We did it.
We did it.
We did it.
All right.
Oh, my goodness.
So everything all right, large bug on my monitor.
Oh no.
Well that's, well good thing we're taking the longest right right now.
With that being said, folks typically here on the JDU outfits for longer runs, I like
to take bonus breaks.
Just have to have a chance to get up and stretch.
We'll be right back in just a bit of this race ramping another one to speak up on the two
hour mark.
But get up and stretch, get some water, let's do that after we'll be right back.
Hello again everyone welcome back to the scenic ground I hope you are enjoying this
wonderful Minecraft all advancements race with boyping you in
off-city it. For those of you tuning in for the first time this shows all about
glitchless and no major glitches rounds or around to just have naturally
let's know glitches in them and this is a episode that's all just Minecraft
all advancements we've been coming a wonderful time I hope y'all have been
too. And before you get into the rest of the run I just want to say happy
coming from the cold day that is a real holiday and it is today. So please be
safe with the cold, come in, enjoy this wonderful cozy run of Minecraft, all of the interest,
especially if you're on the East Coast, so there's an ice storm coming our way this weekend,
so please be safe, come in from the cold. And so with that being said, I'm going to toss a
ride back over to Doine Pungue and Oxidia with our commentator, Steph's top folder and
Pactnet and VC. Do you take it away for the rest of this run? I'm really, really enjoying and
hope you all are here. Take it away all. Okay, we're going to get the timers started again in three,
two, one, and go.
So before we left off, we were talking about this jungle,
the ping-a-tongue, saw, and what he said was,
I think this jungle went away.
And what we mean by that is, not all jungles are created equal.
The checklist requires a specific, a very specific jungle.
Seeing a jungle is not good enough, and most situations,
You need there are five jungle biomes and the bamboo
Biome is very rare within even on jungle and you also need hand-a-spons
Hand-a-spons are different from the osloats spawns. I cannot just go get more
Whatever you can but like you're never doing that in all of answers from the so it's yeah
Whatever a pan is right there is what you're stuck with and if that number is less than two
which a lot of the time it is, then you need to go fly somewhere else and you'll
find another bamboo jungle. Now obviously because I'm a nice person, there is a
bamboo jungle, somewhere, but it is not the one that can go found, which means he's
going to keep the oslox and then we left. And we're going to go look for lunch
other things now. Yeah, we kind of spoke earlier about the despair of playing all
advancements. Jungle is definitely one of those despair causing features of the run.
Every all advancements were a player knows. From even like your first couple of runs in the category,
how annoying it is to come up to that jungle to see it in the distance. Like finally, I can do
my jungle and you get there and there's no bamboo or you get there and it's a bamboo and you
spend five minutes and you can't find a single panda and you're like, oh my gosh, there's a pandas.
It's just a complete nightmare of a biome. Fortunately, I would say it does hit a decent
percent of the time. What do you think of the percentage of the
four? I think it's between like a 1 and 4 and a 1 and 3 that your
jungle is is fully good. Okay, I think like I've always, I think like
when I initially talked about it with other runners like years ago, well
maybe not years ago, but you're, well I guess if it's more than a year
it's years but like in any case, the kind of like vibes feeling, it's like
either it happens or it doesn't, it almost feels like a 50-50, but yeah
But definitely wouldn't be surprised if there was like a one-in-four, which is not fun,
because there's a solid chance you don't find a jungle and you run it all ever.
And you just reset the run with no jungles, maybe no mesa, maybe no snowy.
And you feel like complete this like suffocating feeling of like, I did all of this work.
I got this deep into the run.
I spent an hour and a half, two hours depending on how good you are at the run, depending
on when you reset.
And you just, you couldn't do it, and the seed just didn't give it to you.
and you sit there and you stare you from here screen
and you look at the reset button and you're like,
man, and then you hold this up.
So you're getting your first time.
Let's take a deep breath.
Sorry, I'm not talking about anybody in particular.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
So I think the point of this showcase race
is to show people this is like, on speed run.
It's easy, easy, easy, easy.
Oh, wait, sorry, I, let me, let me write that down real quick
on like a posted note.
So I don't forget.
This is fast, this is fun.
You never got any of these.
It is called the Sinek Road, which means we're trying to explore the world.
And I think we're time looking at that.
So I'm always seeing around doing my sweetheart on.
That's kind of the vibe we're going for.
Which that does lead to a question that I typically ask.
This show is all about the literal list runs and M.G. runs.
What would a list run of A.A. look like?
like. So in Minecraft, there are, there really aren't that many fun, super impactful glitches.
There's a lot of glitches that really don't impact anything. The main glitch that you'll see in
a glitch to be on is a deep glitch, which you're just duping items. There's several ways
to dupe items, but it's very useful. You can, you can do what you can do at the
city and you can do about pearls which is mostly what you're going to see. In all
advancements, you know, people don't really play all advancements glitched that
often because so many of these RNG elements like the biomes for example. There's
no glitch that's going to like corrupts the ocean into turning into a jungle
that doesn't exist. There's no glitch that's going to make it start
thundering, that doesn't exist.
And because of that, there's, of course,
there's time-save in glitches,
dupping items is always gonna save time.
But the flying around bit,
there's no instantaneous transportation glitcher,
or anything like that.
Which is a bit sad in my opinion,
because I love a cool glitch,
as much as an expert said.
There is time-travel, I don't know if you mentioned that already, though.
There is time-travel,
which is kind of like instant travel,
but like not really, it's just like really boring.
So, not really worth getting into.
Somebody got a new, was it a new thunderless world record
or was it a new world record?
I thought there was a new glitch world A world record.
Yeah, Zesky, maybe a couple of days ago.
I was trying to find it in the discord
and I can't, I can't see it.
But yeah, there was some kind of glitch
to world record recently in all of Athens.
But it's one of those things where it's like,
so few people play it that everyone's gonna want someone
will be like, okay, I'm gonna go do it.
Hey, I hear it on the 17th of January by Zeskyo, the random seed glitched thunderless world record.
Time of two hours and seven minutes.
Unfortunately, you will note that that is slower than the glitches wrong.
It's still good. That's a good time. It's totally wasn't even, like for the longest time.
It wasn't even, like, sub four, right?
Yeah, which is the way it's supposed to be something to read something.
Yeah.
It's just that people play these kind of gore's last um you'll see this with gore's
of rinds you'd last yeah you see this thing with the co-op runs last to sometimes
A runners will get a little silly and drooping you will call up as good buddy Kush
and we'll say hey can we play duos and then they'll play duos for like a day and then they'll
get a world record and then they won't play it in for six months and then it repeats you know
Also, shout out to the people who are watching with many of our friends.
And anime is too, but we don't need to.
And anime is of course. Of course. Yes, we have many enemies.
Fuller enough. Oh my God, yes. Too many to name.
I found this weird force. No, it is.
Okay. Let's go.
into grandfathers.
And Oxi finds a mega-taga immediately.
You can recognize a mega-taga because it's very big.
You can see his tall trees and distance.
That's one of the five rarebiles.
Mega.
I'm gonna call this mega.
I don't think I might win.
I don't know if I can win.
Wait, is that a sacrifice patch?
No, it is not standardized.
We can talk about Enville for a moment.
Enville's are used whenever you combine two tools or you put an enchanted book on to a tool or something like that.
There's a random chance that it uses up eight dirt.
Yeah, we're going to try to put my channeling book on because we don't want to do it.
Enville, that's lovely.
You've got a ball.
And those are also pretty expensive, it's what, 40 iron for an anvil. I can't do them off of them, that's not the only one, it's like, like, like, I've been played in a while, okay.
It's 31 iron for an anvil and iron is one of those things, like, if you're a, if you like play Minecraft casually, you're like, oh, 31 iron.
Well, I'll just pop over to my iron farm in a, it's not quite like that.
Pingu's gonna start checking some of these shipwrecks probably for iron, and you can collect iron pretty quickly that way,
But it's still like kind of annoying like you still have to go and like find
No, I suspect because I needed more iron board and then something called a higher-out
We need four iron blocks just want to go on
I was already getting on to that and then I need 31 more for another
It's you need like a stack of iron almost yeah
Yeah, that's right in good news though. Doi Pingu has the tried-in as we talk to that
and we have eight shells.
Eight shells is an important number.
How did we get here?
The advanced number you get all the effects.
You need an effect called conduit power.
conduit power is only acquired through a conduit
and you craft a conduit and you need eight shells.
Those are a couple ways to get shells
some better than others.
For example, the best method of getting shells.
You can fish in the ocean, with the fishing rod
and the zichens, you'll pull up a shell.
The second best method is wandering traders,
wandering traders will spawn,
well attempt to spawn every 20 minutes,
and then there's a five out of 68 chance
that they will offer a sheltered.
How do you think that's that?
Because there's 68, no, is it 63?
I think it's 63, because it's, it's however,
not employed.
Because it's like a choose one in any case.
Okay, whatever.
And then there's the most boring way, which is,
drowns will have shells when you see them.
And then you fill them and you steal their belongings,
which is sad.
But that's life.
The thing is, the issue is basically that, like,
the first two strategies, which are way more cool,
interesting and fun, do require a lot of luck,
which these players as A players can notically don't have.
So unfortunately, they're going to be
We're not going to be boring, right?
I'm going to be doing it for you.
Yeah, yeah.
Can not really do it, Pingu is an unlucky individual, and so is Oxidia.
So unfortunately, we couldn't get any of the lucky AA players on,
like, like, fine, we're going to interview him.
Yeah, if you need to totally, very lucky, but it's gonna be...
Well, I think that's partially like the idea,
like the scenic route, right?
We're kind of taking a chill.
We're not going to be super lucky.
We're going to kind of just, you know,
we're going to fight, you know, like the underdog.
underdog. So anyway, so we got the rarest biome in the game here. The mushroom I like.
I'm out of things. This is a very rare biome. Well, the rarest rare biome.
Of course. Yeah. And time that they like are rare or rare biomes that are not considered rare biomes. Yes.
As we were discussing earlier, not all biomes are all biomes. Some all biomes are not all biomes,
which means that we care about the all-bounds in A, which means we care about the
rarebounds of the all-bounds, not the rarebounds of the not-al-bounds, if not-
Yeah, I wish I had one of that right-
Oh, yeah, I've got an extraordinary sense.
Thank you for that.
I understand.
I understand.
I just love the acceptance.
I just love the, I just love the acceptance.
This is the rarest of the rarebounds and find that it's not necessarily rare, but it's like
rare than rare.
You know?
Yes, exactly.
That's exactly.
Darker than the dollar.
Sure.
It's something like that.
Anyways, mushroom island.
If the mushroom island has two biomes, mushroom fields and mushroom field shore, and you
also get mushrooms on a mushroom island.
It's the only place where they will swan.
And you need to breed mushrooms, of course.
Now, we've done both of those things.
There's just a couple of other useful things you can do on mushroom island.
No way.
Sorry. That's okay. You can be excited. I like skiing. I'm a big ski. Oh, this isn't even in the mushroom island. That's how it's starting to feel.
Well, that's not your, you're so okay.
I'm not, or I'm not in the field there. Maybe it's an early end of the field there.
So when I was just a sign for a filter, that's, that's what I, when I was trying to give them a seed to play, that's what I was looking for.
So when I did this I was looking for these so-called rare biomes within a five k distance from zeroes. You're allegedly rare biomes
Yes, yeah, the allegedly rare biomes. Not so rare. After all are you
You're a quick learner, but yes, the allegedly rare biomes. So now both players have a mushroom island
Both players have gone to a snowy both players have gone to a mega tiger
So they still need jungles and mesa
And this is the only one that we haven't seen at all.
Mesa, sometimes called Badlands, it's the same thing.
They change their name at some point.
People's why not, but it's the rare version of the desert.
It's got like a red sands, and it looks pretty cool on us, like.
Yeah, it's kind of a wonder that they call it Badlands.
When it's kind of like a pretty good land overall.
Like I put it in the top, like, top 10.
I mean, it's, it's Badlands in the sense that, like,
you can't live there.
You can't like put it on my ground right it's a game. You totally could build a house there
Well
It's true I'm not sure to think about right much
Thank you much to consider
What's the season of considering you might have read on answer record? Of course, I think you very much
I just want to remind folks about a event that actually coming up in two weeks believe it on it time passes
I love the passage of time. Two weeks we are going to have a back sub-black 2026 tune-in February
5th 3rd 8th for a back sub-black 2026 a four-day speedrun marathon featuring black speedrunners
benefiting race forward. The exhibition points scheduled in Twitch chat to check out the event
or the city duty.gg slash BFF to learn more. The folks over there at black and flash have done amazing work
And back to black, the whole schedule is actually amazing.
Going in a lot of it, I absolutely love people in this work on it and a lot of runners that are participating in.
And so please check out and support back to black and donate some more money for race for it while you're watching.
With that being said, as we go back here to the run, I do want to ask how much of this seed have you the commentators can
scene beforehand, bedded beforehand, and understand that like, this is going to be a possible
seed.
And that's what, how detailed is your knowledge of this seed.
Okay.
My knowledge is very different from desktop folders, not logic.
Folder.
I don't know anything at all.
Well, I know the rules by which, like, I know what's necessary to exist on it, but I haven't
seen this seed.
Who would give you a very itemized list of everything specifically, but I'm just going to hit
the highlights here, which is a playable
any percent, which means we have the temple at the very beginning of the run, the village at the beginning of the run, and
a way to get into the another. Then in the other, there's a bastion of fortress and then in the end,
there's an entity with a ship. And in the overworld, we know that there is the five of our
bonds that we're looking for. That's where they are, how far they are, how you get there,
I do not care.
I hope that answers your question.
I don't know if you want more detail on something.
I can provide if you'd like.
I don't want things to be spoiled for the runners bringing in.
But without spoiling anything.
Okay, sure.
The overall, the temple and the village,
we want to make sure that the runners don't have to run too far.
far. So I do have a distance limitter on those structures specifically to make sure that we're
running like a thousand blocks at the very beginning of the run because that's just boring.
We don't need to be doing that. So that exists. It exists for the another as well. And there is
some others loot in the beginning temple. So the enchanted golden apple, the surprise tool for
later, I made sure that that would be in the very first temple that we were going to get.
It's normally an internship goal in Apple.
There's about a 10% chance to show up in any given temple.
We don't like, Oxity right now has two internship
goal in Apple's, but that's like guaranteed.
And depending on which temples you go to,
you might not get one at all.
So we wanted to make sure that both players have one,
from the beginning of the run, so they don't need to worry about it.
That's one of the things we did.
I do want to answer a very good chat question
that we've been avoiding this entire time.
But why do the runners need the gold?
Every time we're in an ocean, and we see a monument, you'll see the runners dive down into the monument and steal all the precious belongings of the drowned, not the drowned of the guardians.
Folder, why do we steal?
Why do we steal? Just in general?
Like I think a lot of reasons.
Greed, uh, the rush.
I know, you know, the rush.
Like the adrenaline, like it's crazy.
It's like what if you get the pot, like all that stuff.
But of course we were talking about mining,
collecting, we get a list of,
seven, six, all right now.
So yeah.
No, but of course, in Minecraft and all of us
is through running the mainstream we care about
is backtracking.
So you're always making sure you're going
through the seed collecting resources,
and one of those resources you're collecting
are the gold blocks.
And so, yeah, as you said,
you were saying that we're collecting gold blocks
for some purpose.
And that purpose is the advancement,
be connager.
Now, be connager if you're familiar with
bakingator, I don't know if that is.
It's just a word.
I don't think I've ever had one or seen one or none of this, so.
Anyways, so, be Canadian, of course, Minecraft advancements, a lot of them are kind of, like,
punny, now, personally, I'm not a huge fan of puns, I'm kind of anti these, like,
cheap jokes by whatever it's fine, so it is.
But, of course, be Canadian is one of those advancements.
lying, gluttony, thrill, anyways.
And decinator requires a limited full beacon.
So a full beacon requires two stacks
that's 64 times two, so 128 gold blocks plus another 36.
You can do the math in your head if you want.
I'm not going 160 right now.
164 gold blocks.
Wow, that's incredible pack, you're so good at math.
You're gonna need 164 gold blocks.
Well, 164 mineral blocks, little brother,
to make a full beacon, and once the beacon is fully powered,
if you're standing right near it,
you're gonna get the beaconator advancement.
Now, of course, having a fully powered beacon
is also useful because you can select two things
in the beacon, and so I've just one beacon's give you effects.
They give a, like, effects in a radius essentially.
And the effects that we're gonna be getting later on
in the runner, gonna be jump boost and haste.
Not haste, it is haste, it is called haste.
It's a very simple, never mind, whatever.
We won't get into this.
Yes, you're gonna get jump boost and haste.
Now, haste is interesting.
Don't worry about it.
Pace is interesting because haste is the one thing
that you need from the beacon.
You don't actually need jumpers from the beacon.
You can make a jumpers' potion.
And in fact, back in the olden days
of all advancements players used to make a jumpers' potion.
And then we realized that it was really slow
and it was better to not do that.
So we don't do that anymore.
But you do need haste from beacon.
There's no other way to get haste.
You can do haste with a tier one beacon.
So you can totally play with just a tier one beacon,
which only requires nine gold blocks.
But then you wouldn't get the B-Connager Advancement,
and then you'd only get 79 out of 80 Advancements,
and that's like, no, well, that's not like,
bad, it's not all the Advancements,
which is usually we're going for here, so.
That's where we're getting into a box.
While we were talking about that,
both of the runners did find our Mesa Byam.
Why, I believe.
No?
You know, I guess, we're on your screen.
I'm mad that Pingu got it.
Oh.
I thought it was like yes.
Well, you found it first.
If that makes you feel better, you found it first.
It's good.
It's just made of gold or diamond.
It's like mostly.
I just think like, okay, because I'm like basically entirely done.
Which I think being said, it's a pretty good time to talk about the next phase of the run.
So we're not heading into a new phase of the run.
So previously, we talked about the idea that you have the early game, the mid game,
the game, the mid game, and the end game, and all events that's run. And that is true.
That's kind of the way that all of thevansans players think about the allvansans run, routing, and general.
But we are going to be heading into a different part of the mid game. So when you play a seat
linearly, it's different than playing it out of order. That's probably pretty obvious. And there's a lot of ordering
you can do in the mid game, but there's kind of a linear way of doing it, which is usually that you go first into a desert.
You get all the stuff you need for the run from the desert. So you get all your TMT, which we're in the later
or we'll talk about that later.
You get all of your gunpowder, which you need for rockets
so you can fly, and then you leave the desert.
Ideally, you don't really come back later on.
Then you're going to go into the ocean.
You get all the stuff you need in the ocean.
That's where we've been for the last,
I don't know, like 20, 30 minutes of this run.
I don't even know.
We've been here for a while.
And once you've got all the stuff you need from the ocean,
you're going to go into the netter.
So again, you don't have to do it in this order.
And a lot of runs aren't done in this order.
This is a very good seed and sort of the players
that you're able to play pretty linearly.
Oh, it's beautiful.
I'm a dronol.
Yeah, we found the jungle.
The bamboo jungle.
All right, oxy stalks are back up.
Yeah, so oxy is now winning,
because she's the better player,
and that's why I have all my money on it in my house.
Yeah, oxy believers are cashing in right now.
This is like, I think this is,
I should have shown to you that this is at zero zero.
This is not, yeah, I'm gonna push, I just fire it.
I push the corner because I've been here
the humans in the water that was sucked.
The doping you is now also found the bamboo jungle.
So now both players are tied.
Yes, but I don't know if to do all still.
And you both capture.
Adventure cast.
Pops up on Oxy screen.
So that's one of those major advancements.
Very exciting.
And as we saw there, there are pandas here.
It's a beautiful, I think I counted there were seven of them, which is, which is a lot more than you normally get.
Well, you know, they got to take a bath that everyone's not allowed.
Yeah.
Of course, in Minecraft, pandas can't smell because there's no way to detect the scent of a mob, but they can't see sneezes.
That's sort of run away from you. That is true. So nice to see you.
Which is why if you're going to go, you know, breathe your pandas, it's always good to take a quick shower before you do that.
You don't want them to seizing over you and kind of getting you all gross and gelatinous.
So, you should let them see.
Instead of real words, there's no way that's a real word.
Speaking of gelatinous, you think it was going to head into another?
What do you mean speaking of gelatinous?
This is not...
I was taking the leather.
When you listen to the portola, you kind of have that nausea effect,
Yeah, actually, we're just kind of jiggly, which is kind of gelatinous.
Jiggly.
Okay. No. Right.
You never thought about that.
What do we need to do in the Nether?
That's a great pressure hack.
So, of course, there's a couple of things that you need to do in the Nether.
One of them is you need to get all of the biomes.
Now, unlike in the overworld where we only need to get some of the all of the biomes
in the Nether, we need to get all of the all of the biomes.
Fortunately, it's a lot easier to do this in the Nether.
There's only four biomes. They added.
There's five of them.
five?
There's a void.
I mean, a total void.
No, wait, are they actually five?
Yeah, wait.
I was just ways.
Spirouways.
No way.
Isn't there, didn't they add three?
Did they add four?
Bro.
Yeah.
Are you serious?
So anyways.
Anyways.
Like I said, you need to get all of the all of the biomes in the mother.
Which means you need to get all five of the other biomes.
They added four of them in another update.
And one of them always existed before.
So, of course, you have the kind of the plane,
another biome, then you're going to go into the other four biomes.
And we're in one of them right now.
And this is a really, really useful biome.
It's the SoulSan Valley.
Now, SoulSan Valley, notorious for being very annoying
for casual Minecraft players, for all advanced players,
this is where you want to see your fortress.
Now, of course, we're in the fortress right now.
That's what Tolkien was doing.
He's killing weather skeletons to get weather skeletons skulls.
Weather skeletons are a lot easier to find
if the fortress is in a SoulSan Valley.
because it changes how the mob's funding works.
We're not going to get into it because I'm definitely going to say something wrong.
And packed with a lot of me.
The point is, if your fortress is in a Soul San Valley where you can see all these like
Soul San, Soul San blocks, that's what they're called.
Where you can see all these Soul San blocks.
You're going to get a lot more weather skeletons.
But here's going to be a lot faster when you're going to be able to kill a lot more
weather skeletons.
And of course, there's a rare chance that you get this weather skeleton skull from
you with a skeleton when you kill it. And yeah, it's very valuable.
Thank you for demonstrating that, boy, thank you.
So we have a one with a skeleton skull. How many do you need? Is it just the one?
I mean, he got the advancement for getting spooky scarce skeleton.
Surely we're done now, right?
Fuller in the world. I'm not a great question. Sorry. I was answering a chat question.
A very important one. But yes, we need three with a skeleton skulls because of course
like humans with their skeletons.
What?
Where was I going?
Where are you going with them?
Don't worry about it.
Let's just completely divert from that.
So there's a mob in the game called the weather.
Now, if you've played Minecraft, you probably
know what the weather is, but if you don't, basically,
it's one of the three boss mobs, three boss mobs,
whatever.
The point is, some of the mobs in Minecraft are not made equal.
And the ender dragon is one of them,
but another one is the weather.
And you need to kill a weather in order to make a beacon,
and you also need to kill whether to do the all mobs killed advancement.
So we need to spawn one in and to spawn one in and you need through those hop-ins calls.
And I'm just gonna leave it there.
I think I'm gonna stop talking for a second here and I don't know if you saw it in my file.
That was a good idea.
I was very surprised when you started perfectly.
I think you're gonna see me, thank you.
We did just there in the end.
So.
We did.
Also, can I just be sort of, I haven't played Minecraft casualty in such a long time.
And I didn't even know there were multiple Netherbion's, I guess.
I just thought I was the one.
I'll be the second one.
So, these were the...
Sorry guys.
Oh, yeah.
The new bounds are added in the 1.16 update, which is the major update that we're playing on.
Playing on the minor update, 1.16.1.
That one doesn't really matter that much.
But all the bounds are added there.
That's also when all of the bastion structures were added.
Mm-hmm.
You wanted to add something folder?
No, well, I did want to mention, I wanted to build basically what you said there,
which is that when the system won as you're saying,
this is the version where they added a lot of stuff to another.
And if you're listening, you're kind of like,
okay, that's like the stuff is added in the subject,
that makes sense.
You probably don't immediately realize that like,
this is why we're playing on this version.
The nether is such a huge difference to Minecraft speed running,
but like the things they added in one system
are so incredibly powerful,
but basically everybody just plays on one system.
Now, of course, there's people who play on other versions,
like people play all versions of Minecraft,
they play in, you know, one 21, they play in one seven,
one eight whatever but the fast majority
minus here is one of those we do is
play one fifteen I think one of them
yeah call with us right now how
do you know that's terrifying yeah absolutely
terrifying all of the people who play one
point out in the big two six one point
so only probably yeah didn't
K4 get like a one point of record like
well that's on our paper
It was fine.
Go on, but we're only in 26 or 22 days.
So that starts.
But yeah, so basically there's a bunch of stuff like earlier
we were in the bastion.
The bastion is incredible.
You can get pearls just so much easier in a bastion
than you can in like any other way in any version.
So yeah, just a lot of stuff going on.
That makes one about 60.01.
Essentially the best feeling version
to speed up Minecraft on.
I don't know if it's necessarily the fastest version, like, always, like, sometimes
it's not supposed to be run, it's gonna be fast on the version of the name.
Yeah, let's go on, let's talk about what Austin's doing.
Yeah, uneasy alliance.
We uneasy alliance in game that tells you to take a gas to the overall, and kill it in
the overall world.
But the way that you can check for it is just that the player has killed the gas
while the players in the overall world.
So technically, we can leave the gas behind.
We do some finagling with how the game is loaded by going through the portal a couple of times.
It keeps another loaded while the player is in the overall world, which is usually not true.
And that way the TNT can stay, and the TNT will then explode and kill the guys while
the player is in the overall giving us the unisiable alliance advancements.
We used to build like a massive and other portal up on the roof, which is obviously slow
when in the land, when is the alliance
is still in the land, but at least it's not slow anymore.
Incredibly slow.
It was so unbelievably slow.
And sometimes you get a trap one and you try
to put into a portal, but it was just like,
it was disgusting.
Something that I think is worth mentioning at this point,
which I was going to mention earlier,
but like I kind of sidetracked and forgot about it.
Osmoor, you asked a long, long time ago
about glitches.
If there's useful glitches in Minecraft.
Now, if we, of course, answered like,
yeah, you can duplicate items,
So that's what you do in the push run.
Now, some people would say that R.S.G.
Minecraft Geedruns should actually be called
random seed no major glitches.
And reverse uneasy is kind of an example of that, not really,
but it's one of those things for like,
yeah, the game has programmed that it works this way.
So it's not wrong that you do it that way,
but it's clearly unintended
that you can kill the gas while you're in the open world
and get the advancement.
But there's a lot of stuff like that in Minecraft
where you're kind of like, well, it just works this way.
The shocker uses another good example
where we were like lying the shalker in the boat.
Like that was not programmed to work that way,
but because it's considered to be like an intent,
not an intended consequence, but it's a consequence,
I'm intended to give you.
So it's an exploit.
Yeah, it's not a glitch.
That's kind of like, it's one of those lines
where you're kind of like, well, I mean, technically,
like, the theory of duplication works on.
So an exploit, it's a more reliant.
And it's mostly bikes.
Like let's say it's a more reliant.
I mean, if we're being so real,
the whole concept of a glitch is a very arbitrary thing anyway.
Yeah.
Like, we could go on for hours and hours about what a glitch really is.
But it's community to find the differently, which I enjoy.
Yeah.
And there's been discussions about all the stuff
in the Minecraft Speedrunning community over time.
And it varies in different people have different opinions,
but yeah, we're pretty, I think things are pretty set at this point.
Oh, I got a way, there's something that's going on.
The goal and we'll kill the piglins, so that would be more.
It's the goal and if you get down to them.
This bastion here, the one that doping is, and this is called a bridge bastion, as a beautiful little chalice here with 16 golden blocks, which is useful.
16 gold blocks is a equivalent of two monuments, every monument has eight gold blocks, which is good, but it's also good because it has a guaranteed load stone.
They load stone requires another right in get to craft, which is very expensive.
We load stone for country load to take me home.
I think it's also the longest advancement name, but it's definitely up there.
That's for sure.
So you need a load stone.
But mining for another right is slow and orange, and we don't like to.
So if you can minimize the amount of another right that we have to mine for,
at the end of the run, we are very happy and finding a bridge and getting that load
so it's basically a free another writing yet, which is very nice to have.
Which is one in seven.
After a card on the right.
I'm doing the math in my head, but I've been really failing at that tonight.
Seven?
Is it one in six?
It's one in six.
Yeah, it's one in six.
Okay, anyways.
It's okay.
Getting back to the run.
Yeah.
we did currently another enchanting. So what's up with that? We were talking about
So we talked about channeling earlier and Boyd Pingu, of course, being the more skilled runner
was able to find a channeling book in a temple. Oxidea was not able to use the skill to
herd vantage, so she has to enchant for it, which is not working for you all I think.
now. And we are now down to 22 levels. So, we in Shendingworks is pretty complex, but I know
that channeling, for example, very lowest level that I can show up at is level 21 on the
in Shendingtable. It's not worth it. And we're driving away. We try to table what we do is we use
use bookshelves to bring it up to level 30, which is the the most power that an
engine has that we can have, and then we will place a string or some other kind of
block to block a bookshelf, and then I'll take it down from 30 to 28 to 26 to 24 to
22, and we'll check out each of these levels, and we'll see if Chenlan decides to show
up, which it didn't. And the reason the string is usually used is because you can instantly
break out to reset your videos.
Yeah, we didn't get channeling, so we're going to do now is we're going to get our withish skeletons.
This is, we know it's is channeling showing on table oxy ears.
It's just not that it's any 20 cents.
Okay.
Okay, so oxy knows that she needs 26 levels to chant the tribe with channeling.
And this is the easiest way to get a bunch of bubbles that like you need to do anyway.
So we need to kill these weather skeletons.
They drop a lot of XP.
So we're going to get the levels pretty quickly here and then we're going to go and chant the tribe.
It's actually very useful at the enchanting table, keeps its current
enchanting stored, otherwise it would be annoying.
I'm gonna have to read of the player, I think, right?
It is.
It is.
The current XPC to the player is stored.
Which, I guess we never talked about this, but at the very beginning when of the run,
when you create a world, the current XPC to the player is always set to zero, instead of some random number,
which means that the first enchantment that you get
on any world is always consistent,
which is very useful.
For example, on a trident, the first enchant as we call them,
is channeling.
So if the very first item, this is at level 30,
of course, the very first thing that you enchant
is the trident level 30,
you are guaranteed in a channeling, which is very useful.
But most of the time, the most you can use first enchantment
is going to be a looting to on a diamond.
There's also looting three and I am sword and there's a bunch of other useful first-in-chance
to know.
But it's a very good mechanic.
I guess we lost over that.
So the run is just so fast as these runners are so good.
Well, there's a lot going on as well.
All advancements is kind of a very heavy category, there's not like, it's not for your
linear, you don't really know it's going on a lot of the time, so it's hard to keep track.
I can't see how much gold do you have?
I don't know what, it's gonna be like a stack, huh?
I got like a stack from a little rule, which is pretty low.
So part of the reason why you would be saying the gold is low is because generally speaking,
You're going to do a certain amount of ocean, right?
To get to this point in the run, you don't need to get your gold
blocks from ocean, but you do need to get your trident
and your shells from the ocean.
Now, of course, ping you already.
Can you do you have eight shells, actually, before I say
it does, it gives a control.
So yeah, ping you already has eight shells.
He's got enough for conduit, which we're going to need later
on in the seed.
So he's done with the overall, and at that point,
you kind of expect that once you've spent enough time
in the ocean to get all eight shells, especially considering
how long we have to spend in the ocean, getting that trident,
you kind of expect that at that point.
you would have already had a certain amount of gold blocks.
Usually, like I would say that the stack in the half,
maybe I think you, I don't know if you would agree with that.
But something like that seems pretty normal,
but we only got a stack.
So there just weren't a ton of monuments in the ocean.
Not something that I was checked for on the seed,
I would assume like Monument density.
That's not really necessarily something to be checked.
You'll learn some, oh yeah, the lava has hanging.
Yeah, okay.
So we're in Chinsin.
There's the channel in.
and now both players are able to hit thunder whenever it were to start thundering
and I'm not saying that because it's thundering because I'm not going to give any spoilers to the way Pingu
but it is definitely that would be really important to the working time
yeah that would be really important information to give away to Pingu
who's in another and so the thing is is that way in another you can figure out if it's raining
but you can't really figure out if it's thundering there's no way for you to know
so generally speaking
yes
In fact, you want to explain this?
Oh, I'm glad that you bring up the thing, and then I have to explain it.
Yeah, you just explain it, there's no actual way to know, but because when it rains,
this high darkens, and just some bug, it also darkens any other things, it also affects
another.
If you, like you can tell, like, an experience kind of see right now, in another, that there is what we call, like, another rain fog, like you can tell that this is darkened from what the moment it is, especially in the world.
Do you, I think, it's more obvious, but it's just kind of like, it feels like the farther away chunks are getting the net and like consumed more by the distance, I don't really know.
I'm not going to get what you're saying, though.
That's really interesting.
I didn't know that was a thing.
It's actually very annoying,
because you have to go into the overall
to check for thunder anyways,
like it's just the way it is.
But something that a lot of players will do
is something called another breeze.
So you can put your bees in another
and another it's always daytime.
So you need your bees to work
and bees only work during the day.
So you can put your bees in another.
You can chunkload another.
and in your bees will work even if it's nighttime in the overall or that sort of thing.
But the rain if it's raining in the nether, that prevents your bees from working
while they're in the nether, even though it's not actually raining.
But the game thinks it's raining and the bees will work.
So there's been a lot of development on that in the last year, actually.
Just kind of like a weird niche situation that happens more frequently.
They would really expect.
Thankfully, boy, I think you may be due to our help, maybe not.
It's also a found-as-way by actually a world that has able to fit their very, very, very tiny
advancements. So both players are done with Thunder now. This is one of them.
Actually, what it says on the tracker, done with Thunder. Yeah, which we can't see, but
Trichance. Yeah, but you can just pretend. I envision the words done with Thunder
because when you see those as an A player, it feels really, really good. You've passed like the
most annoying RNG check with the entire game. So this is one of the things that the RNG standard
of the mod does do. You'll notice that the rain started at, well, I guess we didn't notice
because it was in the another, but the rain starts at the same time for each other and
and same with the thunder. That doesn't normally happen. Thunder and rain, whether it is not
something that's tied to the seed. So if you open up the world ten times the thunder will
happen at different places.
But, what do we have left, guys?
That's a great part of the game.
Oh, there it is.
Okay.
I need a lot of this.
A lot of gold.
No.
Sensing a common theme here.
Yes.
I think this is one of you, like, a good, like, follow-up thing to what you're asking
earlier Osborne about, like, how much pack checked the scenes for, specifically?
Yeah, generally speaking, you're checking for things that are necessary for the rocks.
So you're checking for the structures that have to be there.
You need the fortress, you need the bastion, you need the stronghold to be like,
to have like libraries that kind of thing.
It's not playable if you don't have that.
But the seed is playable if you don't have like 15 monuments close to spawn that kind of thing.
So that's the sort of thing that like pack was not checking for.
We don't know how many monuments there are.
Generally speaking, if you see a big ocean, it's probably good enough.
In the seed, it just wasn't as good.
It's the way it does, but yeah, definitely not checking
for that kind of seed quality thing.
And that's the sort of thing we're like again,
this is like, this is a seed that pack hand picked
for these players to play.
And it's good, but it's not like it's necessarily
a world record seed.
Oh, Thunder Phantom, yes.
Yeah, I like it.
Okay, can we talk about Thunder Phantom?
I'm going to talk about Thunder Phantom.
Talk about Thunder Phantom's.
super super annoying. If I could curse on the stream, then this is the time where I would do it, but I can't.
Anyways, fathoms are annoying. Oh, so, um,
fathoms have this stupid, ah, I'm like clenching my fists right now. Stupid spawning mechanic.
We're making only start to spawn after the player has not slapped for one hour. And not sleeping also includes not dying,
because, of course, it does.
So, phantoms can't spawn before one hour.
And if you were to ever look at a tool assistant speedrun,
I'm not promoting myself here.
I don't have a fantastic task.
It's my kind of all advancements that you should totally watch.
You can find yourself on the way.
I'm going to go watch the immediately after the sentence was over.
It's really good.
And you should also watch a VD pineapple.
VD pineapple's task is really, really awesome.
So the in the test the first 25 minutes is doing all of the advancements and the next half hour is waiting for it to hit one hour so that fandoms can spawn
It's it's great, but it's annoying and in speedruns because it means
Phantom's are kind of annoying for in a two hour run and there's finally spawn at night
So, they only have three nights to spawn and you have to get them.
And Pingu, this is very unlucky.
Pingu, the thunder ended and technically during the daytime,
if it's thundering, mobs can spawn.
Which is why it's thunder-fantoms.
Normally, it happens when it spawns.
And I'd time, but it was thundering, so we got thunder-fantoms.
But then the thunder stopped and then it was daytime again,
and then they burned today, which is very unfortunate.
Shout out to our producer, Richard,
if you want to go watch the past,
Richard does with a bit in the chat here.
You'll be on the...
Yeah, Anthems are a phantoms are annoying.
You need phantoms for a few things.
Obviously, you have to kill every mob,
as we've been talking about.
Phantoms are one of them.
There's a phantoms-specific advancement
called Thubbers Monaro, where you need a piercing
crossbow and you have to kill two phantoms with the same arrow shots.
The setup that we do for them, you can do it, you'll see it again later.
You put two phantoms in a boat, we pre-damage them, and then we shoot the arrow.
Now the pre-damage, unfortunately, because during daytime, made it so that they burned
up and died immediately.
And the last thing that you can use phantoms for is phantom membrane, which is an item
that you can only get from phantons, which is a lie, you can also get it from cats sometimes,
but you can only get it from phantoms, and you can use it to brew a slow-falling potion.
Slow-falling because it isn't effect is needed for how did we get here, which is where you need
to get all of the effects, except you don't need to get all of the effects.
You need to get all of the effects. All of the effects.
Yeah, I've been mentioned that there's asterisess
Some effects are more all effects and other effects exactly you don't you could really I don't even need to be here anymore
Frankly, I don't understand. I'm gonna understand it now
Yeah
Yeah, it's probably honestly. Oh, sorry. Go on. No, I was gonna ask what are y'all thinking about these runners and their rounds that we're heading into
to what will be the third hour so far.
Let's see.
Yeah, so I mean, both runners have said that we still
lead gold, and because we're done with the ocean,
on a pure like gold per minute timer getting gold
from bastions is faster.
So we're going to be staying in the another
to be getting the rest of our gold block.
So it's just the fastest way to do it.
And there's more consistent.
As I think like a pretty big part of it as well,
because you can scan for bastions.
You can't scan for monuments, but you can use the e-counter in your F-3 menu, which we
didn't ever talk about.
But I think you was basically scanning for bastards.
We were able to find them a lot easier than monuments.
Yeah.
Other thing is what I was just talking about with phantoms is you have to manage your day
and night cycles very well.
We talked about you want to be in a snowy at night, you want to be in a jungle in the
day.
And you also want to be in the overall night time for phantom spawns.
So right now 147 is part of the day.
So the night time is 130 to 140 and then it'll start again at 150 to 2 hours, those are the
night time.
So in between those, we can be in another and we're not missing any phantom spawns.
And after we're done with our gold, we are going to make use of all of the TNT that
we've been gathering.
Why are we gathering TNT?
That's a great question pack. Why are we gathering TNT?
Now, of course, the reason we're gathering TNT was because Oxy was just kind of struggling with the
He does her biome, but of course we want as much TNT as he possibly can. Sorry. I don't know why I sub that.
I was struggling with the Denset Boyo.
I did never want to get back.
That's true.
You're struggling, we're struggling getting cats.
I didn't actually remember the reason why we were in the desert for so long.
So I kind of, I kind of just left it off there.
left it off there in the hopes that you would fill in the details.
But we are certainly to get cats.
We got a lot of TNT, but we want a lot of TNT.
It's fantastic to have TNT because one of the things
that we need as we already mentioned previously
is we need to breathe.
And debris is one of those things that's just really irritating
to get.
It's another one of those RNG checks.
We talked about this with a lot of other things.
You could go zero for like 200 on skulls.
You can just never find gold blocks
because you can't find any monuments.
There's a lot of RNG checks like that.
And one of those big ones is debris.
The Bree is an OR, but unlike most of the ORs in the game, it spawns exclusively in
the Netherlands.
Generally speaking, you're only going to find it at the low Y levels in the Netherlands,
and it has to be buried, except for one of those in Bree, but we don't worry about that.
But generally speaking, it's always going to be buried, so you have to dig together.
So something that you see a lot of casual players do is you'll go down to Y-15 in the
end up in the Netherlands.
You know, when to ground, there's lava lakes and stuff that's really annoying, and you're
just going to dig in a straight line and try to find a Bree.
Now, of course, that's slow.
We don't want to do things that are slow, as much as A players love time loss.
We don't love time loss that bad much.
So we're trying to do something faster and the thing that we do faster is we blow up
a lot of blocks with TNT deep underground in the other.
That's what we're going to see pretty soon from these players, hopefully unless they
intentionally do it later, just to mess with me.
We're going to see the players basically digging a straight line for as long as they can, usually
like 100, 100, 100, 100 blocks deep down in the other, then they're going to run back through
it igniting TNT as they go, and then they're going to run back as you're in it.
Again, looking for the debris, debris veins, perhaps, I don't know why I said it like that.
The debris veins that are going to be exposed by the TNT blowing up, of course,
another has a very low blasters instance, so blowing up TNT is pretty efficient.
Some people, especially casual players will do this with beds, but it's simply a lot faster
to do with TNT because you can just run and ignite them as you're going.
Yeah, I think you was going to check this treasure bastion treasure bastions. Do you have a chance to have another act or sorry, another right now there right in the show chest and we do get one another right or a debris rather at the bottom, which gets us the hidden in the depths of the experiment.
But we need many of these doing deed.
Hold it.
Sorry.
I finished my sentence before you even asked your question.
But yeah, we need another 19.
So in theory and total, you need 24 of them.
For each one, basically, you need four debris to make one another right.
Another, another right, goodness.
Why does every single day that we're talking to?
It's really killing me.
No, it's fine.
You need four debris to make one another right.
Inget, and you need six another right.
Inget with an seed.
But because we already got a bridge restaurant, which gave us the loadstone, which is one of those
another eight ingots, we don't need that one. So we only need 20 debris to make our five
another eight ingots. That's a little bit clear. And of course we've already got one of those. So
dropping it will need to find 19 more debris to get out of another and get them see overworld to the
endgame. Let's get out of the main. Who is going through the other right now or is that interesting?
It's like farting. We have vast fingers going through another right now.
Yeah, you got pretty used to this and you're kind of just like flying you fly a lot in the nether sometimes you die
Especially when you're near near to the category, but over time you get a pretty used to be a speed at wishing you to go
You players and players named that stuff folder will die a lot in flying
Yeah, exactly exactly
It's it's it's honestly it's really fun to fly. I don't know if you've ever played those like was it just like one very famous
Oh, yes.
Oh, yes.
I'm sure map where you like fly with them all the time.
I have this song in my, I like there's a specific song with my two.
It's killing me.
I'm sure someone in chat knows what I'm talking about.
Yeah.
Feel like your maps.
Oh, my goodness.
That one's so good, too.
What is that a letter map hold on?
If not, I knew it.
Anyways, well, you find that.
We're going to answer a chat question here, which is, how are we finding the gold in the bastion?
And like we touched on for a little bit.
There are four listening.
It's Tara's suit horse.
Yes.
There is food forest, oh my God.
So that's like such a cool map because they like made custom music just for the map.
And it's like, they're their box, the custom music they made for this Minecraft map are incredible.
It's a fantastic map.
And that's like that was like five or six years ago.
Yeah, speaking of the topic, what is the topic?
Yeah, well, so the topic was, I don't think we found the gold in the bashings.
So there's four different bashing variants.
They are bridge, treasure, housing, and stables.
And in any of them, there are consistent locations where gold blocks can spawn.
For some of them, like bridge, that chalice, the 16 gold blocks are always there.
And for other ones, such as the stables and the treasure rush, they have a chance to spawn.
But for all except for stables, you are guaranteed at least some number of gold blocks.
reliable enough and it doesn't take too long to our role locations, right? I believe learning
gold block locations is probably a day one activity, if you were. Yeah, if you're not
lucky to see it. Well, I'm very interested in why Oxy just took a haul and into the
over a world and then back into this folder, please explain.
Yes, so you need a variety of monsters hunted to get the monsters hunted advancement.
And one of those monsters hunted is the zombie-fied zombified hoglin.
What are they all? Is it a zombie-fied the name of?
Yep, you got some reason that sounds wrong.
Yes, okay. Zomified hoglin and to Zomified hoglin, there's no Zomified hog,
there's Zomified piglins in another because there's no Zomified hoglins.
And so the way to get a Zalmified Hoglin is to bring it
into the overworld, so something you'll see players doing
at some point during the run, like we saw Oxie doing,
is you bring a Hoglin into the overworld,
and then you wait for a transition into a Zalmified Hoglin,
and at that point you can kill it, and then you get another...
Mm, essentially.
Let's see.
That makes sense.
I really like that.
And then I want to bring the attention back over to Pingu.
So Pingu is back in the overworld,
And this is where we reached the final part of the run, the end again.
All of this is going to be set up for the big advancement.
How did we get here?
We'll go through each of these one by one.
The first thing I want to talk about is this another portal
and this redstone contraption that he's built.
We talked about this a lot.
I'm going to talk a little bit with the bees.
We put the bees in another and we make a trunkloader in the overall world.
And whenever we're in the overworld now, the bees and the other are going to be loaded,
and since bees in another work even at night, because they don't have labor laws in another,
we're going to be able to get our honey much faster. Other things we do are all, so let's check.
Other things we do in the end game, we filter a beacon that max beacon, that's what we got all of the
gold blocks for. And we are brewing a bunch of potions. There's going to be eight potions in total
that we're going to brew. I don't want to list them all, but there's eight
potions. The beacon's going to give us two effects. The conduits going to give us
an effect. And we're going to go. You'll have to go now. Paul's going to give us
more effects. With a rose is going to give us more effects. Binding all those
things will allow us to get how do you get here. It's it's really it's quite a
sight. What is this guy that oxygen is doing right now? Where like she
life herself on fire and then goes through a bunch of TNT who is
So I think you're self on fire is kind of a war thing.
It's kind of a war thing.
So oxy likes to do like some players are kind of not super flashy players.
But oxy's one of those flashy players and it's just cooler if you're on fire as you're running through the-
Through the-
I was like, it's totally active then.
I was like, did she accidentally like die?
Is she about to die?
And then she just runs through about the TNT and was like, well no.
Our players would never die.
instructed them multiple times to not die during this run because that would be very
yes. Thankfully they listened to me. Thank you both good. Yeah. I was gonna bring that
up earlier that like once we get the light truck like I can stop
panicking because up until that point if they died it's just it all bets are off
like who knows what's even gonna happen anymore. Fortunately they both made to the
light truck but man I was I was very nervous in the early game of the
It's especially if all is helping you to ping your goodness.
Yeah, I'll see this is finishing up on our debris split here.
And we've got 11-mind already.
There's 50-reads in the center of ice, right?
It is.
It's my woodest center ice.
Yeah, I'm gonna go.
Okay, sure.
We'll have to talk about debris centerization later around.
No, it's okay.
At the time, unfortunately.
I mean, okay, so we have a goal for you here.
First of all, before you go into another like speel,
I think that will be a time to be found.
You are second on this break since we're hitting pretty much the
two hour mark right here.
Runners can pause their games.
Oh, yes, so you won.
I'm just doing this. Why are you doing this with her setup? Why are you doing this to me?
Because I didn't. Oh, right. You can do your grand. That's fine.
There again, we are in another wellness break here folks.
So, we're going to go with Dorek, this is the last one that's picked up the night.
We just wanted to do it every hour with a longer one like this.
And so, without being said, we will be right back for the home stretch of this Minecraft
all advancements race, so these stay tuned to be right back.
Hello again everyone, my name is Oz Morne, we are back here with the last hour of this
episode of The Scenic Roundtime, so happy to be here with two amazingly towns of runners
until it makes something count to commentators as we are heading into the home stretch of this
all advancements race. Before I begin I just wanted to let everyone know if you want to appear on
video hoppitch yourself we are accepting as submissions for all of his sub-incidentions.
And if you've got around the new book that's showcased on the channel, send it array if you did
you dot gd slash submit slash configs all of us do look at those and we actually love all the runs
people submit to these things. And so please type
opportunity points submit in chat for more details.
With that being said, I'm very glad to be here. And I just want to wish,
of course, everyone, the final holiday here. The national
southern food day as a person who lives in the South by
South by South. There were a lot of really different. And so you should try it.
I promise you it's great. But now, now that that's out of the way,
we're going to go right back to the home stretch of my graph all
advancements. Random seed coach was 1.16 by Doi Pingyu and OxE with Best Top
Boulder Impact and MEC on commentary. So y'all, take it away. Thank you. Let's get started
in 3, 2, 1, go.
And we were interrupted here by phantom's right as we paused. So of course, we're
I don't know, I'm a skillfully burned.
His phantoms early on, they're on.
Thankfully, oh, come on, more.
Just like all of us,
he is skillfully burning herself in this debris split.
So I think you also goes for a reply sometimes.
So you're so true.
So one of the things about phantoms
is you need to be above ground.
You have sky access to be able to spawn them.
And we killed a wither underground.
So the thing was going to do an above ground
whether it's set up, put it unfortunately.
I don't think he's gonna do that anymore
because we don't need the fintems anymore.
We're also able to sleep now
because we got the fintems
cancelate before you get them otherwise you reset the timer.
Also notably you can't die before you get fintems
because dying also resets the timer.
And I know we had a couple of questions in chat earlier
what happens if the player is die.
It's horrible, it's awful, it's completely terrible.
It would be so over. You don't even know how over it is. Look up the definition of over and you see dying in an AS run.
Yeah. At this point, you see it gets into quite the stuffholder debris fail.
Yes, why does the stuffholder debris fail? Look it up. Great, great gift.
And yeah, you reset that right. That's just the truth.
So on the thing that's going to be about the weather and we've actually got a fish captive on the fish.
is going to experience no pain during this process.
Is what I'm going to say.
It's one of that's true, but this one we're going to go with.
I need a witherose to get the wither effect.
That's not true, but it's a consistent system.
It's the way to get it.
So we use the witherose in the how to get your set up
which means we sacrifice our salmon to the wither overlord
before promptly cutting into pieces.
Okay, so when the wither calls,
kills mobs, it spawns the witherose where they die.
So that's what we can do.
So I don't know how I expected that we were going to kill a little bit of an unexpected
to be underground.
One B1 hand-to-hand combat face-to-face, like, that close to each other.
Yeah, so you, um, some of them above ground and let them fly around and
shoot them with a bow.
She told me that I was really stupid and then we stopped doing it.
Yes, it took a little bit of convincing.
Somebody might have even made a comparison video showing how much slower that was.
Yeah, it took a little bit of doing, but we finally got the full community to underground weather, I think. I don't think anybody does the background weather anymore.
And then here is our, I guess we would call, I think this is probably the glitchiest glitch that we do in this run,
which is not a major glitch, which is not a breaker of the senior crouching on.
It's like a well done glitch, you could say.
Yeah, yeah, me too.
The way the beacon works is very weird and you're not supposed to be able to get
Trump loose and haste at the same time.
But if you click on the buttons in the right order, it lets you get both of them and we abuse
that fact.
We also have a cow in the other, which is great.
I'm sure that people in SKF are very hungry because they live on a diet of only pork.
And as we've talked about well-drawn, we've talked about well-drawn glitches before.
I don't know if you do well dumb enough on a pork tromple, you need some steak, you know?
Well, I mean like they're just not getting vegetables and although that seems to work for a lot of all advancements players
actual humans, I think that's like pretty bad for your diet. Oh, I don't know. They're going to be so I'm going to get kidney stones like we don't
think if you're going to talk about this
debris. So
as we noticed
I think you did his end game setup and then is now doing debris while oxity is doing things the other around
She did the pre-first and is now doing game setup
I think you do this because of course we did the pantoms, but it does show the flexibility and the non-linearity in the run
So you can as long as you have your TNT you can choose to do
debris whenever you want to and this is a very common thing where people will do debris first or do debris after end game
I'm going to say it's 50-50, but it's very common for it to be promoted or back-loaded accordingly.
I would say you always want to do it first, if you can, like it is a better thing to do.
It's just that, like, as you say, it's very frequent on players.
So do like, hey, in this run, in this situation, it makes sense for me to do it right here.
But both of these players will be doing it before the end game, I think.
Well, I don't know what offset you have, but I think you obviously is doing it for me.
I'm sitting all over here, I did take that.
That's a good point.
I did see that too, we were talking about it earlier.
And I said it.
Yeah.
Well, then you're stealing of endgame games.
Wait, what is time for this run?
Time for this run, and we'll see the timer in game
stop automatically.
It'll end when we get the 80th advancement.
It'll pop up in the chat.
It'll be very surely.
It's when that's about to happen.
Yeah.
usually this happens in the end, the end dimension, which is appropriately named, when we
re-summern the end or track it. And when that happens, you'll see it, and there's a big animation
that plays, and then it'll go kaboom, and that'll be the last offense in the overall.
Five. That's not the last year.
What?
Because I don't think either these players have breath. So one of the events that players used to get a lot of
in the early game.
Well, you used to get frequently in the early game,
is I don't actually remember the fastest game.
What's the one for dragons for?
You need a minute.
You need a minute, thank you.
So there's an advancement called Unitement,
and Unitement is when you use a empty bottle
to collect a dragon's breath.
Now, the thing is that these players,
both went for zero cycle, and in zero cycle,
which is a very hard and difficult strategy,
the dragon doesn't fireball you.
If it does, it usually means that you've messed it up.
So there will be a fireball,
and that means neither of them got Unitement,
which means they're both going to have to release some of the dragon in order to get it
to fireball them, so that they can get them in, which will be like a minor time loss
of, I think it's like three seconds, something like that, which will usually be the
last advanced bin.
In these newer runs with your fast-recaste because players are now very consistent with
doing zero cycle of players, didn't use to do that, a lot of players still don't do that in
all the advanced bins, it's one of those any percent strategies that kind of isn't like
fully percolating into a just because it's so hard and like it's like a different level of difficulty
to a lot of the stuff that you you need for an anti-percent split. So the art isn't faster to
get that advanced way you need them in on the first time you some of the underdarking.
Technically there is a way and when you watch the tests you will see this we do get
brass during the zero cycle. It is not consistent in any way shape or form.
I can go for that, I don't want to recommend it, and fun fact, I'm not good enough at the game to do that myself, so I actually had an oxity record that part of the task before me.
Yeah, because in zero cycle, extremely difficult strategy.
And so is doing debris as you're seeing on typing as screen.
But these players are both very, very consistent, and so they can execute the zero cycle quite consistently.
it's worth noting you did ask like is that faster slower?
Zeros like I think technically is slower than the fastest instead of perch?
That's a correct right?
Yeah, so like if you get really lucky it's actually slower to do Zeros like whole.
But in Minecraft generally speaking especially in AA but overall these days in Minecraft people value consistency more than they value
Well the value consistency especially in the end game of the run more than they value like the highest of higher high rolls
The chance of getting in the switch are pretty low, so it's better to just go for the zero cycle, kill the dragon's to use possible, don't risk like a 3, 4, 5, and an Enfite, and then do the do need you need a bunch of men like they're essentially in.
Is this still true with the studio? I'm pretty sure it is.
Is it because?
It can be sure that the Enfite has been zero for a while.
Yeah, the Enfite in broder of any percent?
No, like the follow-up will be less than a thousand times.
Okay, maybe zero is faster.
I mean if you're doing like, I mean you think Bo's here I would say two pulls two.
Didn't that Nabi do the task one cycle or the task fight?
Well, I mean in 121 everybody, but yeah.
Anyways, there's a lot of ways to kill an underdry, and as it turns out.
So, many things to talk about that.
I don't know what to consider.
I think probably relevance to this year.
So once we have, once we have our beacon set up, our conduits set up, our potions are done
brewing. I'm waiting on a city here to get a B cycle. You see honey level on the F3 screens
as 4. Once it gets to 5, we can harvest it and then we're going to go leave and we're going
to go to the Outpost. You'll see. Do I think he was at an Outpost right now?
I was going to kill. Sorry. We're going to kill this guy with a banner on his head and he's
He's going to give us some advancements.
He's also going to give us an effect called that element,
which is going to let us start a raid when we go to a village.
And when we go to a village and we beat the raid,
there's be very cool.
The waves are going to spawn in.
We're going to use TNT to try to instigate the waves
as soon as they spawn in, hopefully.
And it'll go very quickly.
But we need to win a raid to get the hero of the village advancement
and to get the hero of the village effect.
and then we go back, and we have to get the battle
and in fact, a second time.
So that's the first step of getting the effects
or how to get it.
We've done a bunch of setup,
but now we're actually on the process
of doing the advancement.
Yes.
And so there's going to be five waves at this rate,
because these players both need to do normal rate.
The reason you do normal rate and not easy rate
is because although you need an effect from completing the rate,
which you can get even if you do an easy raid.
On normal raids, we've spawned two more waves
and easy waves, five and so on, three.
You get the evoker in the last way.
And that's the model that you need to kill.
And you also need to spawn in the Vaxes.
That's something you need to evoker can do.
Only in evoker can do, in fact.
Unless you have chains enabled, I suppose.
And kill one of the Vaxes.
And of course, the drop of the evoker
is the totem of a dying.
And once you have a totem of a dying,
you can get another advancement,
which is, I don't know, but basically, post-mortal,
thank you, which you need to activate the total number.
So.
Oh, not.
What is it, Anna?
I've never seen it before.
This is a ravisher, as for those ravals.
Yeah, it's a big, big guy.
He hasn't smuddled after a rhinoceros slash elephant type
of deal.
Very tanky, very annoying.
This is why we like to do debris before the raid.
degree, another right armor has an extra benefit of reducing and not
back taken and ravages are annoying because they push you back so
I'm much and it makes it an oil to kill them.
There's actually an oxidative in a different village here.
Looks like a laser village.
Sleeping mid-range.
I don't know if I would call this a nicer village, but we'll see.
Yeah, sleeping mid-range really useful because you don't want those night time
mob's spawning on you during the raid, but also because you have to wait for the next
right way to spawn, and Pinker is going to need to sleep anyway so it's actually a
really cool little overlap that you did there. Interesting, that's not great, that's not
great, it is not like you right now. Yeah so this guy is the evoker so as you can see he
drops that ton of undying and also spawns in these little backs things, they're so
annoying and they're going to fly around but Pinker finally tells one of them and that
That is almost all of the mobs that we're going to need to kill other than I believe
Endermites and Guardian.
Guardian.
Guardian.
Yeah, we're like 30.
Yeah.
We discussed this early in the run that can you had to cap to the pearls on him and
us throwing them throughout the run, trying to get that endermite to spawn.
But unfortunately, as we discussed earlier, you can just get on lucky and can you just
got on lucky?
So we still need more pearls.
We're going to get those in the hand and later on.
Fun fact, the player that I had played this seed to make sure it was good enough.
Snakesy, he did actually end the run with Endermites, not with Breath.
So, not super surprising there.
Well, it's probably seen that as well.
It's ferocious.
Yeah, Pinky was won the raid, so now we're going back, we're getting Battleman again.
Once we get Battleman the second time, we have to be pretty careful.
Because if you were to fly into a village again, you would start another raid.
We don't want that.
So we have to avoid villages while we're flying,
for the rest of the ones that are on here.
And after we get this, we're gonna go to a monument.
The monument has algorithms and other guardians
are going to give us a mining fatigue.
And mining fatigue is where the timer really starts ticking.
Here of the village, you get the effect for an hour
and 40 minutes, and bad omen, you get four, one hour.
So those timers are kind of irrelevant.
going to be done within an hour, but that is my name fatigue. Only last five minutes.
So as soon as we go to the monument, we get my name fatigue. We're we're hurrying.
And it does happen sometimes that players kind of like miss something or something goes too slow
and you run out of fatigue, but almost never to these top players. So we're pretty confident
that once we have fatigue, we're going to be seeing the end of the run in terms of like the
the biggest advancement we're waiting for within five minutes. So, very excited to see that
on both of these players' screens here. And Pack and I did discuss previously the idea of
being quiet and letting the runners focus while they're doing how do we get here. But considering
that we have two attempts to get how do we get here done and finish the run, I don't think we
really need to do that. I think we can just talk as much as you want, Kack. What do you think?
I'm more than happy to continue the time. I love yapping on this show. That's one thing. So,
Think you here is sitting above the monument, getting the mining fatigue effect is random.
There it is. You see the little ghost. It is guaranteed within one minute.
Yes. So there's a random offset per alley garden and then it repeats every night.
It'll try to give you a mining fatigue. Then we're going to get a dolphin. So we lead it
off in and we're going to take this guy and we're going to kidnap him just like we took that
shulker. All those two hours ago. You took that shulker back to spawn. Now we're going to steal
this dolphin and take them just one. And we're going to combine our
dub strider boots and the dolphin's grace effect. The dolphin gives us to swim
really fast there and make it really easy to fly out of the water with the dolphin
still on the lead. I don't know if we ever discussed flying mobs. We saw some
interesting things with pingu flying donkeys earlier in the seed, but we don't need to
get back into that. But we're going to fly the dolphin and it won't take any fall
damage as long as we successfully pull it through the conduit water. The reason
of course that we need a dolphin is because it gives you dolphins a grace while you're swimming
we're then going to splash all of our potions and then we are going to get our inventory
so that you need a couple of things to eat. I'm going to get hit by the shoulder. I'm going to
shoot ourselves with an arrow. I'm going to let you watch it here.
I'm not sure what's going on, we're having some trouble with it.
I thought I saw you flying back and forth, but I see you don't have that.
I did.
I like I started flying that you almost did it with my new pig.
Okay, that makes sense.
I would have done it very silly.
That would have been funny.
We've never seen anybody do that, especially in on the draft tournament.
Well, this is new overlap.
I've never seen incredible overlap.
It's still a huge situation and going through the portal at the same time.
And P.U. is wearing up for the end of the sea.
But so is Oksidia.
Can I be honest?
Can I be frank here, Pakman?
Yeah, good.
And I said, pack that kind of sign of the strange.
It is incredible to me that these players are literally neck and neck here in the seed.
This is like, they're like, what, like, a minute, two minutes per max?
That's with it.
With it two minutes.
I mean, it did such a different thing.
This is good.
Or, well, we can see your track for us.
So we don't know about that.
That's true.
That's your miss.
If you just let a finger win, then you don't have to be the miss.
You can just pretend that you didn't have it.
I think it's true.
Oh, this is...
Oh, we feel to tell you.
I mean, that's technically factual.
Anyway, let's let Oxidia get how did we get here.
In the meantime, Pengu is going to re-summon the ender dragon here with these four ender crystals.
It's going to start shooting beams into the sky and all that happens.
That takes 30 seconds. That's a set time.
We are going to throw some pearls and hopefully get an ender my...
Sometimes we're in.
Yeah.
Of course, Pac would never choose a bad seed.
This seed wasn't over with my snakes seed.
Oh, we have a flopping dolphin.
One of the many ways to lose an all-vance of seed
is to have your dolphin decide it just doesn't want you
to give you grace anymore, which is referred to as being a flopper dolphin.
Really enjoy a flopper dolphin doesn't even
my bag against me.
And no, it gets harder yet here. Incredible. Both players get how do we get here. Not
your players finish the run yet. Partially thanks to these atrocious endermight rants.
Coming up from the suit that was approved by SnakesY, huge shout-up to SnakesY. By the way,
for testing up the suit. So these players can have this enjoyable experience.
Yes, I'm sure, share with the class.
Oh, okay, Soxity is officially paced locked.
So that's awesome. So, Hansen is, oh yeah, so Hansen is free as well.
So, Hansen is one of the hostile mobs that we need to kill.
It's straight, but in the desert, it's a zombie variant.
And it needs to be night time for it to spawn. It is currently new.
So we have to wait a couple of minutes before that can happen.
Luckily, there's still some stuff that we need to do, including this endermight business.
So it won't be that bad.
And the timer stops from dropping you.
Which means that you have successfully completed it.
That is time for dropping you.
Gigi's
I'm sitting at only a minute or two behind up the most
Which we could say we could attribute that time loss purely to the channeling book that the
JoyPinger luckily happens when you do honestly
Yeah, that honestly is probably true. I forgot to grab my knees
That's that's two and a half minutes off of both things. That's actually time. That's really good
I really feel like I didn't see it.
Thanks.
If you want to see more all the advancements
content at a very fast pace,
that's not folder and I are co-hosting a tournament called draft
that we are going to be streaming.
This is very weekend.
It's going to feature the Opingu and Oxida
as well as many other all advancements
speedrunners.
It's a event.
And if you want to check out more olive-insence content,
you're more welcome to check that out.
It's like this, but much faster pace,
essentially the runs are closer to the hours.
Yeah, it's a bit of two hours and 17 minutes.
It'll be one hour and 17 minutes.
And I believe you can check out the trailer
or the link to the website in the pinned message
in which sharen.
Do we want to wait for oxygen to finish here?
here or do we want to wrap things up? What are we, what are we, what are we, we can we saw
in the home base. Yeah. Awesome. We still got that. Well, the city is
it's finishing. She's out the rest of the boat. Yeah.
You don't know. We still have a room for like 31 minutes. She can go. It's fantastic.
This is like a really nice long room booking. Those are hard to come by. Exactly.
This has been a really enjoyable run, but can you do why, how do you feel after this performance today?
It is a good risk. Let's have the Phantom's, I don't know my fault, but other than that I played well.
Yeah, I finished a run like last night, I was a 222 on a random sit so it's cool like we get us some more time in a race
You can be very nice, thank you
Well, looks like I've figured I've been in the M1
Yeah, this is even the seal tanker, we're gonna
I'm going to stare at a bunch of other men who are in the eyes and anger them into this pit.
So I don't even get a little tracker.
Oh, oh, oh, oh.
Nothing is looking back at me.
I didn't get a vex kill.
Oh, wait, really?
It's crazy.
I guess you just got this one.
And they were like harassing me once.
That's a little lucky.
like you. You track her muscle very interesting right you've got a husk
Vax great view under my it's well this is like the area where you can
very view. I guess the husk wasn't really a big deal after all I
I think we're not going to be waiting for oxy to finish the run if we need a
name. Vax. Vax spawn. We can't. I mean yeah.
I think we should also leave it up to the two of you how much do you want to go to
that at this point.
That's just you, bro.
If you want to go to sleep, that's okay.
No, I know you're tired.
You're the son, not tired.
I could leave it at any point.
We are, we were so like 38 minutes to even the estimate here.
And so honestly, like we can stay here for as long as you all need.
If we need to like cut it off or like Mercy kill we will be very artists like
No, we'll be okay
I'll see us next. This is a great dinner on. Yeah, this is a number of things. Yeah, no, so I guess I'll bring this up just cuz I want to
Oxity I
Don't worry
For the first time
once like forgot great view
and I was I was watching her stream and I was like hey, you forgot great
if you, this is like an hour later,
like in the overworld.
And then it happened a second time,
I don't know if it was the same day
or the same stream or whatever,
but it happened a second time in very close succession.
And I was like, wow, you do this a lot.
And then ever since I said that,
I think I cursed her.
And now she forgets over half the time,
I'm honestly gonna say it.
Personally, my head cannon is that it's intentional.
My head cannon is that's intentional.
It's a best.
She's doing it just to mess with you personally,
a pack.
I think that's what it does.
But like we're losing like a whole minute.
Hey, go ahead.
I was going to pack.
You want to talk more about the training that you're
hosting, like what format is it?
How much?
Like what what what what more can you learn about this training?
Oh, my goodness.
Right.
So we're going to be running with this same RNG
organization mod, except with a couple other boosts,
as well as filtering seed as we gave to the runners today,
except a little better.
The main idea of the tournament is we want very fast,
past a game play, like we said,
we were aiming for close to one hour runs.
Now we do this is what's called draft.
We've got drafts.
There's a bunch of items that you can draft in your run,
kind of like if you were doing a fantasy football league,
you could draft players here, you could draft advancements
or other items, like you could draft a diamond pickaxe
or a trident, or you could draft advancements,
like a complete catalog, and then you don't
have to do any of the cats.
So it's a competitive format.
Like you can never room with people in them.
You draft against each other.
You start with these bonuses at the beginning of the run.
And they take out a chunk of things that you would normally
have to do, but you no longer have to do on the run.
And then it speeds it up.
They're very fast-paced, which makes them very exciting
to watch.
I don't know, folder.
those would you like to say? I don't know. Should I go find my script from the first trailer?
Yeah, I mean, I do like the sound of that kind of a format of attorney, especially if you're
looking for runs that are like in-hour, that's very fast. Yeah, it's exactly like why it was created.
The entire format was basically me and Pact talking going, hey, what would we have to do to make
all advancements a tournament viable format. Yeah, because doing two and a half
hour runs is just not feasible for an entire event. It would just take too long.
Yeah, when we're all like adults that have other responsibilities, that's
that's quite bad. But yes, if you have hours every time, at a time.
And we do have the draft one tournament, what is it called? That's true.
I don't know the answer of the topics, Rhence.
I thought you were going to say the loser of drafts first turn.
I was going to say it in notorious for coming back from the dead in the first ever draft
tournament using her totem of undying to make it straight into the finals and beat
Finderg 2 to 0 in a gripping best of a ready that took place last night.
Honestly, one of the most incredible series I've earned.
I'll speak is speaking. I remember I think again the one we started production about who's going in the race.
Starting New York City.
The working believers are catching out big right now.
Oh, yeah.
Oxi.
I'm just here in my house.
I'm homeless now.
I think we're doing a favorite.
It seems it's such.
Yeah.
What?
Oh, 70% you were 70 to 30.
It was 73.
Well, that's cool.
That's cool.
You call it a 903,000 points to the pin U and 939,000 points to do it.
Almost a million points.
Yes.
You guys, I am sorry, I'm sorry.
That's completely one.
A lot of people this last night have.
Pingu is offended.
Pingu is offended.
Pingu is a better runner.
a lot of people just lost their ass
if you put the mortgage on the
good topics for us
I just play more than I thought you guys are trying to come
out
there you go
that was really good and so 30 minutes under estimate
that's great
It's a good run.
Yeah.
I was hoping for a two-third, like a sub-2-thirty,
because I knew we had the brakes,
and I wanted to fit it into the three-all-ins.
But also the way that the category works is like,
if I give them a seed that has all of the things,
it'll just be a fast run.
Yeah, it's just like not if you're in some threes.
So like, I don't know how I would lose 30 more minutes.
I'll talk about this for a minute.
It's like one day.
It's not like, oh, yeah, it's just to save us.
I mean, if someone does or the sea has something really wrong with them,
I think that the sea is dead one.
No, Richard, thank you both, but can you end up city it for that amazing
amazing race.
People in China really love it.
I know I really, really love it.
For those who haven't been watching the show regularly,
I always like to have a good amount of people involved in my episodes.
usually with three to four runs each. This is the first out of the hood that we've done that is just one run the whole time.
If you like this kind of format let me know because
Some of this is really really fun to have and I want to do something very nice and have a Minecraft all advancement space because
MCSR ranked is
MCSR right now is really really popular right now and so having two of the top runners of this kind of going facing up against each other
that together, felt very appropriate with how much ranked is, it's booming at this moment.
And to hear more about the tournament that Pac-Man is organizing right now, just go to
show how competitive this kind of community is.
Without being said, I'm going to give you all this unmeter to just shout out to anything
you want to shout out to.
Let the people know what we can find you, what more we can see in the Minecraft community,
I want to head.
If the banners want to go first, then the content is.
Yeah.
Shadow was one thanks for inviting me and I'll take this.
There's a lot of fun.
I hope to, you know, be on a real GDQ someday.
Like, hot fix is awesome.
This was amazing.
But AGDQ, SGDQ, that's, that's what we're going to
For it.
It's been a while since Minecraft's been a little bit.
Yeah.
Shadow, all my friends are watching partying this right now.
Gooshu, I share every AA co-op record with, which is pretty cool.
Um, Catherine, Snake State Food Play testing.
Fudge, um,
Slalom, more people.
Back in flow for common tuning, well.
Yeah, I mean, shut up all the community members, shut up by Pingu and go follow the Pingu
for a good night.
I'll follow up.
I'm not super consistent with the reason why, but hopefully you can still get the streams
So, uh, yeah, shout out to commentators.
I wasn't really paying attention to what they're saying from us around,
but that's not fair.

Hello everyone and welcome to Perlist Palfs here on GPU HotFix this is a special 30s
hand edition at the Rune to Accomedy MLK Day and make sure that everyone who's celebrated
accordingly.
Today if you can't tell it's Pokemon Day, that's right.
Triple B, it's Pokemon on Parallel's Paths, and also always we focus on challenging and
adventurous V runs here. So it's not just any Pokemon runs, it's Pokemon on hard mode, super
hard mode, and post DLC hard mode. So if we look at the schedule of what we're doing today,
we are first doing Pokemon Legends, ZA, Rogue, Mega Rush with Chrysaurus. That is kind of
the post game DLC. I'll let them talk about that a little bit more. Then we're going to do
Pokemon Puzzle League, PPL, there's a lot of P letters and Pikachu's the unofficial
mascot in this show. So Pokemon Puzzle League is one P stadium super hard because you know
it's super hard. What else are we gonna do? And then Pokemon trading card game hard mode
with or and I am super excited for all three of these. But we have a lot of content on
hotfix and KDQ in general. So if you're interested in what's coming up we do have of course
articles specials over the weekends. Make sure you go to gdq.gg slash
topics and check out the full schedule there. We're not the Monday show, but there
is still a lot of good content coming up throughout the weekend. And the weekend
is to make sure you get ahead of that. But without further ado, let's go ahead and
bring in Chris Sorris who is giving Pokemon Legends EA Rogue Mega Rush on the
Switch to Unsubrics. This how are you doing today?
I am doing I am kind of tired because you know I am in essentially one day in the
a few chairs that is now currently one minute past midnight, but I am, but you know what?
I am happy to be here, and I'm happy to showcase this amazing, it's pretty fun, neat little
category that's just been added to the leaderboards as of a few days ago. So hello everyone,
I'm Crisosaurus, I do a lot of Pokemon stuff on mainly on the Switch, that might change soon,
but we'll get to that later, but as of right now, the point has a few explanations to go through
which is what is Rogue Mega Rush. Rogue Mega Rush is a mode in this game where at the very end
where what you don't all the Rogue Megas you effectively get the option to fight all the Rogue
Megas in one go without without only having three heels. You can take any team of six with you
that you like so this will be our team of six that we'll be taking and I think before we even
and gilded stuff. It's right now I would like to explain just a little bit why we're picking
the six Pokemon that we have with us into this essential challenge. Essentially you need to focus
on our team and understand them in cores instead of like individual Pokemon. So to understand
that we're going to go through our first Pokemon which is the annihilate, which is essentially
going to be our main Pokemon for our most of the DLC. If you've seen casuals and other people
We'll talk about how do you deal with road vendors in the DLC?
You essentially want to use this.
Essentially they talk about this.
And yes, this era and does use this as well with the moves
out of work up, screech focusing, and great first.
Mango is get all the buffs that you can decrease the opponent
defense smash.
To make this even more damaging, we also have access to Pumpkaboo,
which is move trickle, treat, allows us to essentially add
the ghost typing to our code. It's Pokemon and allow us to do double damage as for those
don't know. And the super effective type shot ghost is super effective against ghosts. So
we get to do more damage. The other core of this team is I call it the Frost core, which is the
components of the Travenant, Lucario and Excalibur. Travenant is similar to Pumpkibu in the
case of instead of using for at inca-excuse me, instead of using triple treat to at the ghost typing
you will use forest curse to add the grass typing. If you've seen the ADD cube run
of right amplitude, if you haven't, you should go watch. You've seen this in the
world Dragonite fight where they added the grass typing on Humkaboo so that hair
of course can do more and more damage. Instead of using hair across wheels that
are using back style above its eyes type. It's going to leave me when we see the amount
of damage we're going to be doing with back style of his eyes moves. You're going to be
like with what? So keep that in mind. And then finally we have our fighting core which consists
of Lucario, who's been here to Dielson Dam and she decreased the defense and put up mega
meter and then going into surfetched, which is essentially going to be our big fighting die for
exactly two fights. But you know that's essentially the main just outspare a little bit more as we go
into the fights. Anyway, before we do that, there is one tradition that I do before I start
and you run, which is this NPC.
And essentially this NPC just gives us a random drip.
So this is gonna be tonight's trip of a day.
And this is what we're gonna be looking like
throughout the interest of this entire run.
I hope you guys like this fashion
because it's up as a half.
I didn't realize it would do your hair too.
Oh no, it doesn't do your hair, but hey, I just put,
it's definitely one thing that doesn't do.
There's just that I have a hair style
this profile that's just Archie Blond and Poshie Black,
which you can do in this game.
Without further ado, I think that's all the explanations
I mean to do.
Are we ready to go on the timer?
Yep, whenever you're ready, just give us a 3, 2, 1
and we'll go off your count.
All right, and that's the case.
We'll be going in 3, 2, 1, go.
Good luck, everyone.
I'm excited.
So we're gonna start with the first boss,
which is gonna be a real mega-absolute.
You can see the brand gap, you can see the number of seeing this with the FI as in Corrio.
And with the start one with Corrio, we're not actually going to use the entirety of the FI as in Corrio.
First thing we're going to do is we'll just go into screech the absol, do the uses defense, but immediately switch into.
So if we're going to get a little bit of brickfrike, it's fine if it misses.
It's not ideal if it misses, but it's fine.
Then we're going to go in with a little bit of all that's actually.
Are you in the bad?
We got bad RNG with the flinch on S-Lash, which is fine, I just have to wait a little bit longer
to set up another source dancer, then just go and hit him with a close combat, then go ahead
and hit the quick way to deal with you, just over half damage everyone will use another
plus move with media assault to essentially, ooh that's also not ideal, okay, so you get a little
bit of bad RNG to start off with this fight with you, unlucky, but sometimes it happens.
We do not need to build another damage.
If you just hold it in the middle fight, but sadly we do not.
But that's fine.
But not the greatest part.
All right, so how many are in this rush? Let's keep track track chat where I won out of
how many?
20 seconds, so 20 seconds.
One thing you may have mentioned that before I start the war, I ended the fight.
I ended the fight. I actually switched which Pokemon I would kind of send out beforehand so
that the moment that this next fight starts, I can then just be immediately go up to Pokemon
I want to be this case big goal guys. It will be a trick or treat and we're gonna get
ourselves another case of that RNG. Slowbar has two news that it can go forward. We really
like to see it's waterfall attack but not inside the game but sadly we are getting all of the
rough RNG already at the very beginning of this game which is fine. We'll just have to deal with it.
But yeah, essentially we want to build up stacks of damage and we even want to specifically
see waterfalls with that because waterfalls is a multi-hit movement.
As we may not know, it's the more damage that the more stacks of damage that annihilate
takes the more damage the ratefist can do.
We are really getting on what you have 50-50 points left.
So, for just gonna have to just slowly chip this thing down until it eventually dies.
We do kind of unfortunate.
How these two penalties are too vital, but yeah, these 13 by dollar, the biggest
we set points on the run typically.
But then after that, it'll go smoothly, I promise.
Speaking of a fight that actually goes smooth, we've seen the first port with the fighting
the core of Rogue Mega Absault, you can go score with Rogue Mega Slowbro.
Now it's time for the grass slash frost core with Rogue Mega Camera.
What we're going to do with Camera is we're going to add the ghost the grass I think to
camera up.
We're then going to switch into a cario.
We're going to then decrease the fence of the camera up and now because it's typing, it's
Now with the ice thanks to it's a, it's a, it's a, it's a,
a plan round and grass type thing.
So now we can go with one ice cooker rush into a nice
time, just to build some omega meter, whether there's
a never-hysical spear, never-ending, go ahead, never-hysical
time, and then one more ice cooker spear is not taking
out.
And that's kind of like the free mode of this, of this, uh,
of this run.
So now we're going to actually see what happens when the annihilate
strat actually goes correctly because thankfully in this fight it is a lot more
better than the Rogue Mega Slower wasn't like 50-50 coin flip RNG after me with.
So because of the ballast gear so all I have to do is position myself away from the
the triple enough so that then goes for bullet seeds, make sure that my annihilate takes
all the damage, go ahead from the new another wall for, and then watch how much damage
this race first actually does to this target.
Oh!
Almost the one in KO.
If that's not only blue, you can actually one in KO any of the rogue mayors, except one
if we get lucky.
And that's this one and really funny if we do we just see its HP just get completely
in my way into really funny.
Now, we were talking before we started that you have a GDQ for love, you know, so chat whenever
you see us punch something that that's like that.
I want to see some gloves in the chat and if you don't have the GDQ glove, one you could
something get it, but also if you have anything related, untreated,
ape-related, you know, feel free to scan some emails when we do that.
So like I said, let's go and be setting up.
And now we're gonna go get a little bit of punch and awesomeness.
That's fine, you're one more spray can do the more rage fest just end us the job.
If we were talking numbers, like we see the health part of it,
What is talking numbers? How much health do you think that would have been that little sliver?
You have like an enormous amount of HP like they have like 20x the normal amount of HP is
I'll probably say like about 20. Okay. I mean that's still it's not very much.
So here we're actually going to be using the ice core instead of the blender fighting core
because it is a bit faster than you think in my life.
So, after we've done a little bit of damage and some bit of a split, we're going to sell
our two focus energy and forward bands.
We're going to help the hope of all five of these hits.
All of these as with this land, which they do.
They're going to make sure they do another one.
And you might be noticing that I'm using sometimes using the new,
just for the sake of just for the sake of it.
And I think of them actually you need to solve.
So, something I'll explain during this fight on send me in the moment I need to heal.
By the way, yes, that's one of my three heals gone, but that's fine with the plan.
Uh...
Essentially, I need to make sure for these mega-domdings boss moon,
all the way to them only doing 30% are only doing 30% of the damage that I normally suppose to be,
whereas boss moon's deal for 100%.
So here, very finicky fight after the very careful to come use focus energy,
Make sure mine either goes here,
if it needs to work up just before it goes away,
just to make sure again, extra hit, off of that fan
to both them, then go quickly, screech,
and then go into a rage fest,
and hopefully, if I get the right damage range,
they should be a two-hit punch.
Nope, I'm lucky.
Sometimes it doesn't have to be a bit smaller,
but that's like a three-year four-age piece liber, right there.
Yeah.
I'm going to show you Pokemon only does between 85 to 100% of it maximum damage, so even though
I didn't get enough kicks to deal with 2KL, I just didn't hit the range to get the 2KL,
which is unfortunate for the high end.
Anyway, Mega Amperos is a level fight where I actually have to be very quick, so I have
to make sure that I get the trick with tree off, but then position myself in a way that
Once all these Dragon Balls is coming, all of them hit my anile.
So I get all the damage that expertly.
Thank you to the unique really matter of this time
because we am close chose to go for a second one.
There's one near make sure that I buy anile at me.
That is unfortunate.
I want to make sure that my anile didn't get hit by that.
Breaking swipe, if it's not my attack is being abused,
and so there's been me to a KO,
because it's now a 2-K-L, which is unfortunate,
but, thankfully, it's not much of a big deal.
And that goes down.
Now the reiterate, this is like the hardest post game content there is right and then you're taking these down in like 30 seconds.
Yeah, like the first 20 or so take like a minute, like roughly a minute on average.
And then the last you take bubble the time because they have multiple phases.
So here, what back, what can be a bit, then again depending on how many stacks I can get quickly, because sadly for me
The barcode doesn't have a multi-hitch, so in this case I need a barcode to hit me as much as I can. I do just add a bunch of power punches
Okay, it gets like a normal power punch if not brought by the dude, we just find that now
we can just go for what was screech and then just go for a normal rage fist and it's not
out.
Now I see you running around and figuring out the words on the ground.
What is that thing in for you?
Okay, so the mega orb, so you might have noticed on the bottom right hand corner, I think
it's the right hand corner.
There's like a mega meter and you need to fill up all that mega meter for us to do
cost-meers.
Cost-meers is the thing I mentioned earlier that we are required to use so that we actually
do the actual damage and not we are only doing it only 30% of the damage that we are
normally doing.
So using moves build up mega meter but also picking up those goals build up all mega meters
as well.
So here with more while you want to make sure that we do things very
carefully, and maybe not necessarily very carefully, but we need to make sure that we deal
enough damage to skip the phase of more while because if we don't, we'll be in actually
like using a minute. But thankfully, we'll be, don't stay after more while goes in rage,
more time build up an impact, and build up a screen in a lumpy as a difficult
a minute or so so we need to make sure that we knocked it out before.
If that's, sometimes we'll be doing precise damage on to the poke onto the poke,
but we'll see this moment where there's no middle building precise damage to make sure we
are good specific things.
Anyway, time for the what I call the time loss boss fight, because
The boss class similar to the other boss fights it doesn't like doing a lot of deck more
for the attack sometimes. So we have to see what attack it gives us and we need to make sure
that we build up to four stacks before we start actually doing damage. So that's two. I see when
the game is good. That's three. So now I just mean one more stack from this first class before we
we can then start to run down.
Please don't go for the willow-ass.
Good, that's a two-a-k-o.
And now we just now the force I was going to move
and we can just find a right first.
And it's a good one.
Very nice.
This one can be quite annoying sometimes.
Not, not, not, not the half.
Yeah, so for how the fact they're not here yet,
The hardest fight is on the enough for the second to last fight in the game, but we should have to do with that when we get that
As it should be though, right? You always want it. Yeah, maybe not as a seat. I want it. Similar to
Yes, similar to
So similar to
That is actually problematic unfortunately. I didn't position myself properly to
Get all those kits so now I'm gonna have to manually build up this
This is the actual active weight till a car goes back down eventually which thankfully
after three moon blasts it does so it just needs to weigh one more dragon pulse to stop
All right, now.
And then we should be flying them out.
Wow, we're really getting those slivers.
Yeah.
I did myself look back a little bit. I didn't actually position myself enough.
But the annihilate will take all five hits from the dragonflies immediately.
That fight can go like so much faster than that, but it's fine.
Now, let's see what's out there, really, really stupid question for Pokemon Noors, but
is the possible to punch him while he's flying?
Yes.
Not all moving this game can hit him, but can hit the Altaria, but a Nile-Life's
right fist is enough to dig enough to hit.
So for Venusal, we would really like the Venusal to be able to see similar to how victory
and then you can use the pulleys to essentially get multiple stacks up.
Which is exactly what we see.
Only the pulleys find, I guess I'll just accept the three tail gear.
But there's also a round that in case of a thing,
but I know for a fact that being a soul
like to move in the middle.
And then it gets toasted.
I like a vina's story to ignore me and the other compromise
to follow you around like a pet.
Yeah.
Some of the roads will either target you always
or target the Pokemon always account dependable
or sometimes it's random.
So dragonized the case where it's like
it's random if it targets you.
I know perfect the dragonized special type
as special always target me though.
But then afterwards they'll kind of just change.
So here.
Yeah, you think that dragonized is just,
you know what we have to isolate, we just add a grass type which is also with the ice
so we just made it now about roughly a ton for the ice so these ice hits are going to
hurt. Make sure I position my backscal of the properly so that it doesn't take any damage from
dragonite and then you just see how much damage although I did not get enough mega-milk
Just fine as long as we just hit, yep, hit, pull.
This skips, uh, recognize a big attack
where it goes around the hyperboos in the entire place.
So we'll have to be that.
I do know how, uh, last year this run is,
we're getting all kinds of particle effects and abilities
and obviously couple months very colorful to begin with.
So I just like very visually,
I don't know half of what's on that one.
We're very visually interesting.
So here, we're going to be using a bit of a car to do some of the initial damage.
So then get a little bit of a sort of dance, a little bit of a drain punch.
And then we're going to make sure we do enough damage to this parameter,
and to adopt some old to us,
which typically one drain punch, one close combat, and one more drain punch will get us that.
And then we'll use a squeak to decrease the fence for another 30 seconds,
and then we're essentially just going to be utilizing the bird to,
you'll all by damage.
Unfortunately, the assault does have like this little downside
we have to go a little bit, but that's fine because we can.
Anytime a Pokemon isn't raised, we can't actually damage it.
But we just fine.
Just another slipper. Again.
I'm getting better. I'm lucky, but that's fine.
One more quick. Again.
That might be the smallest slipper we've seen.
I was like literally one or two pixels.
And lastly, it is probably the community's favorite mega.
I don't think there's any distribution of this mega,
but you love it or you hate it.
I mean, this reminds me of suicide squad.
So, so I love it.
Not that I love suicide spawn or anything,
but definitely remind me of that movie.
Here we're going to focus on G and always get hit by this arc with a visor project.
If we are lucky, like before, we get to see water poles, which is like a little good move.
Unfortunately, we don't, and we actually get that RNG because we just got flinched, which means our...
Uh-uh. Okay, so we have to be...
Okay, we're going to go back and find, I guess.
That is not supposed to happen. We're going to not suppose to have an ally by that, but that is fine.
We can fix this
We can fix this
Actually
That was not supposed to happen
Oh, okay, this is just going great time
Everything is going fine
Well, just endings a good amount of time here, but that is fine
But it's fine.
Yeah, so unfortunately on my 9.5, it's not supposed to happen, but it's fine.
Well, just gonna have to slowly check this down, so why do we have a 40 minute estimate?
But also, I personally kind of like when these things happen, because this is the joy of doing it live,
that lives in a marathon setting and sometimes you see just how hard.
Some of these things are and just how if things aren't, you know,
don't go perfectly or you get that or you're in something like what it would look like
to a normal person and how hard the game actually is at a base level.
And so sometimes the things go wrong, like it's actually really kind of like
name and useful to see.
All right, we can leave to this backscout.
Okay, oh boy, we're just gonna have to take this wall.
Yeah, this is not how this fight is supposed to go at all,
and I'll let this a dose of new damage,
but unfortunately, we got a 10, 20% chance to flinch.
It is my favorite, it's the distance to heaven.
All right.
But thankfully, I know for a fact that this thing will
I'll get me a knock back scalabus,
so my back scalabus is safe all little bit.
I've bought you the fences rose.
And of course that's fine, that's fine.
You can almost add just anything new.
Just give you the chance to do a little bit more.
It's fine if we accidently die here because I can always just go too.
Um, actually you shouldn't find him.
Well, unless it goes back, uh, please, you're like so close to dying, please just
die.
You're ready, where's the two minutes here?
I think that's a good idea.
Okay, okay, bye, Paul.
All right, so that's a love and chat for the improvisation.
Mr. Keep it going there.
Oh, that was completely awful. That is not supposed to happen.
Well, we're now to an UDLC.
And, uh, oh, if I have to look at it, that's pretty lame.
Oh wow.
Whoa, oh it's full dragon ball on this.
Anyway, so hopefully that these next few five
which I actually found which are actually more dangerous
than normal goes much, much better
than what was, what's thought me happened.
So here it is just better for us to use back stowder
instead of utilizing my leg
to essentially do a lot of damage.
Essentially hopefully I'm going to get a bit more
I'm lucky there with not all of my ice,
those shards getting the ice.
Ice goes getting the ice.
Fine, just a few more ice goes getting,
and it is dead.
Very nice.
I could wrap this up, okay.
Remember, this is perilous past for a reason.
This was easy, you would be here.
It's all right.
It's true.
All right, Roman, I guess I'll wrap this one is
can be annoying if depending on what's the rapid use to do, it's beginning to always
do like this stream into a focus class, but then I'll fly somewhere and I can define that
with loop, which is the kind of be more annoying part.
That is the wrong book on. I love sending on the wrong book on that fine. Just send out
the Vexscarbo, where the bird, the bird is over there, that's fine. The bird will always
target you first, which is fine. I can just make sure that my Vexscarbo doesn't take
I call it a two-month damage because I do actually keep my axe caliber as healthy as I can
because I have me in one of these heroes a little bit earlier than I would like to make, but it's fine.
That's not good. All right, I guess we're going to be seeing star actors a big attack which I really
I really want to see, but that is fine.
So we're just going to
start your function till it stops.
Then just set up the focus and the source down is one more time
of an hopefully one more icicle spear
should just take it down.
Now assuming I'm a filthy casual,
so this may come off as a stupid question,
But in most Pokemon games, Pokemon cannot directly attack the train.
And so we're seeing here a lot of times the Pokemon are coming after you directly.
But I don't see a health bar or anything on screen for yourself.
So what does it mean when a Pokemon is attacking you versus your Pokemon?
So we do actually have a health bar.
A health bar is actually when you see this one.
But when you see the sea side of our screen becoming darker,
that is, and she all help what decreasing, and if it's at red,
we have exactly why we are.
And we cannot.
We do region health slowly.
So that is by the line and that we have.
That's two.
I mean one more hit on this tab security,
and then we can go forward to the kill.
Tab security can be a bit of an unwind fight
because it likes to jump around a lot.
So we're actually going to wait until it decides to start an attack like so.
And then hopefully it doesn't fall me.
Thank you for not following me and then we need a new one more punch.
That's fine, and then we'll just stay there so we can let this next punch is absolutely free and it is done.
Can't stop it, I'm not scrubbing your gym on the screen.
Love regenerating enough.
Alright, next up is possibly one of my favorite negatives I know why it's not getting
the house there because if you know me out there has two forms, male and female, allow
us to introduce ourselves to non-binary me outspace which is both.
Oh, that is very cool.
So very quickly we need to get ourselves the trickery off of the enemy's fence which
can be too annihilated.
We need to make sure that we take a specific amount of damage during this fight.
I also realized that because an ally invented, my Pokemon is a nice friendship, which
might cause a little bit of a problem, but we'll deal with that in a moment in the next two
minutes. But hopefully, there's a deal much of a problem. Okay, you did two chaos this, so you're
We're going to teleport to the middle and hopefully it's right for us in the field.
It is fine.
So what we need to do with this attack, because it's not how it's supposed to be, but it's fine.
We want you to point me out because we need to view as much damage to this as we can.
And I also don't need my- I also don't need my surface to need more after this point.
So even if suffice dies, it's fine and then you just need to do this do this
And then get a little punch and it's fine
Not for those of us county at home. Do you have to know what number we're on?
Uh, I do, I need to do it.
We all, this is down road 20.
Once we're in the 20s, we're almost there.
And we now start the legendary Northland,
which we have to fight road mega legendaries.
How do you do?
Teetron is thankfully not the biggest deal,
because if we just stand in the Pacific location
and then just stand on the moves,
you'll always go for Flashhead and always get my Nilek
and we will be completely fine.
Like so, we are going to look up at the pubs,
and then again, up a stack,
and then two more rage first should absolutely decimate this.
It might get one more, not definitely one more.
We just could put the fine,
and then go to mermaidy trun.
Look how you're just standing in between like two fire tornado shooting meteor is at you
You're like this is fine. Don't worry about that. Oh, it's gonna get a bit worse, but fine. Speaking of worse, this fight, this fight is pretty annoying
I might actually maybe want to know this, but there is actually a globe and there are ore fights, and they can be rough, so let's hope it's not too rough.
So first we're going to make sure that it's a goose pipe standing before and then I would
need to keep a track of how many hits I get as well as how many crits I get because it's
no longer consistent.
Thanks to the mistake that I made of Sparmy but this is going to be fine if you don't
know for a lecture well I really appreciate it because now my analysis taking like every
time it's on that thing. It's just taking enough extra hit. It's just like really helpful.
These can I copy the little arm? Thank you.
And it's dead and I really like to let the walk-up move from the next fight for that is final as a
easy switch.
Alright, that's 22. Five to go. Five to go and we now start the two phase in the middle of the mega
fights. Where phase one we don't fight them as a mega and phase two we do.
So here, I'll probably best of just sort down first and be a little bit messed up
at this fine.
Here, we'll go forward with a little bit of the spreege.
Mango, we'll park right now.
We just need to build up on MegaMedia as fast as we can.
Just by doing moves.
And then I just need to do this.
And then, you know, drain punch.
And then we actually get to want to actually follow
We can actually go and use mega revolution.
It's the only fight we actually need mega revolution
because every other fight slow
but the main cool thing about mega revolution
in this fight in particular
is the fact that because of the two base fight
we actually cheat the mega for the next phase of the fight.
But if I do Phase 2 correctly, which, you know, judging by my consistency in this, it's
not exactly perfect, but if I do this part, I would do absolutely no damage to me.
Also, not sure if I have the only, but you've visited the curry boss.
Anyway, the first one go ahead and go use a screech, we're going to go ahead and use a
And of course, combat was to then stun the dark side.
Then I'm ready to mess up the puppets fine.
We're going to have an extra drain punch, but that was okay.
We're going to do another close combat.
Then for a drain punch, now it's just not going to do up front.
We're going to do the normal move, but that fine.
It's now just going to be stunned.
We'll then just do all the damage to it.
And it's just not going to do anything to us.
And we're going to do an inch in here too. So it's full full punch by the stress.
All right, now it's time. We'll grow it on. Time for Warmore Legendaries that we have to fight and
ground out is one of them. Of course, we're going to go for a little bit trick trick treat and
then we're going to go for a safe guard so that our annihilate doesn't get burned, which is going to be
very important that it doesn't get burned because burn has our axe that and we don't want that.
So we're just going to deal with this, we're going to just have left and bi-lip the meat
shield and squirties and it's really good to get because it's going to be hitting you so
we can just get the worst acts of our on our rage fest.
All right, I have to be very careful because I am literally one quick way from time.
And that is phase one and run on.
Can you the player get one shot or you're always going to be taking down to red and then it's a second hit after that?
Yeah, if you're always taking down to red and then it's one hit after.
So if I'm at red, it's like, okay, I need to wait until I heal just a little bit just so I don't need to be high.
I think in which I'll be very quick here, again I'll let out and run so I do not take
this by the past hit myself. And then we'll go into the same thing again.
Well, up, on board strain, the only thing I've done is sadly, Harry over is the bench
fist stack, so I have to rebuild it every single one. So right now I'm at one. Oh, wait, okay.
just don't die and I need you to get my knowledge what sporting sounds is perfect
and then now after this hit you will get stunned and I don't have to worry about being hit
myself. Well, at least a little bit of fine. And then there's two more
range first and then it's dead, though. That'll be then final
ground on, defeated with mostly no problems.
I'm trying to imagine this from the Pokemon's point of view.
That's like you want me to do what now and in front of the fire blast and punches guy in the face
like a rather nut
Yeah, so now it's been said of taking up a five last of the face and I'm gonna take a
Serves a lot of Serves and ice beams to the face. I do if I am who is in every single time it goes for ice
The maintainers and chance offerings, but hopefully we don't get unlucky
Asked it at the level
I love my my like being closed on my not all the RNG happening to me all at once.
I love I love 10% chances. My favorite. Yeah, that's the second or third time we've
had like a kind of 20% chance. Plus all the celebrities like maybe you should buy a lot of ticket tickets.
Thankfully it's not going to be much of an issue as I have this defense is not the best
so we can just take it that no problem.
Thankfully, this is going to be, for me, this is going to be the last time I'll need to use the monkey,
or make for the fight we can then go and use back step against dead.
So, once again, we're going to turn Kyoga into a ghost type, and then we're going to switch into an ally.
And then when you can see what moves to go for, goes for surf, which is completely fine,
obviously now being final, now it serves a much, much bigger.
So I'm going to mention that I avoid the hits.
Also, if I should mention the item that we have when our annihilate is the shellbell,
so any kind of gets hit, it gets at the center of health back,
but because we're doing so much more intended damage than the game expected to,
we just head recover and all of our HP back.
So it's not like you have to be too worried.
Although, I am worried about his next fight, right, however he can form a punch and then
here it is, come, put the count, there it is, right, two more fights to go, more fight,
So I'm just fine, God and well, the thing that made its own tailist and small
on, if anything goes, right, first things first, we're going to make this thing
week a ton into ice because we need to do as much damage as we can, and we're going
to go for a little bit of a switch here, and then we're going to switch it to our
scalabov, and we need to make sure that box damage does not take too much damage, because
backstabling the candide. We are keeping the heel for the final final fight which will absolutely need to keep.
But like yeah, this fight can be a bit crazy. Can be a bit scary.
Uh please.
There we go. That's phase one.
And now it's time for phase two and someone did mention there is no delta strain.
That is where you are wrong. Firmled, growd on, primled, high-oedon,
and make a way to raise it, do have their abilities. While they are not stunned, they will have their abilities
that will normally have in the main game. So even though we are making it more weak, the ice
is currently not eight times weak, the ice will back down with four, thanks to the completely
balance mechanic all the dumps stream. So don't make sure that our defenses are then dropped.
I think recoil is going for me to be, which is completely fine because it means that it is not out of it in my next album
and if it's not out of it in my next album, it means that my next album is not going to die.
And then we can go, yeah, so the cheeky little ice fan here,
into an ice-coil spare, try to build up these mega neck gauge, and then go one of ice-fam,
which then we've been stunned the recoil, and then one more ice-coil spare knocks our recoil in for you.
at least the fight I was most scared of, it was well,
please does that. Very, very nice.
In my last deal, we're then going to
buy the only Don Mega, technically in this world,
Mega Rush, which is like, oh,
the Kube. The Kube, I got to pay to one, is pretty simple.
We actually, this is the only fight we actually want to
need a fact-scalable, because we're just going to
absolutely decimate this and fake in,
What if that inform moves?
It's five
First phase one
Phase two we're going to lead with the tree
And we're going to make sure it's now again similar to wakeo is it a trumply dice
We're then going to go behind it and get out our back scalder. We're going to make sure we do a
I saw a space so that again, then it was like I'll get stunned which means that we do anything which allows us
a fully set up of all sorts of games and focus energy and then we then do enough damage to
then knock out our shoes I got and off with is a phase 3. The only three phase fight in this game.
This one we have to be pretty careful on how we maneuver depending on how hot and
side got to the choices. It normally looks good for a move called 1000 waves, which if I'm not careful,
would actually make my Pokemon stuck and either the other switch out is obviously time loss.
But thankfully we don't have to worry about that anymore because we got both the breathtaking
in the end of the fence drop. Now, we just need to set up my backstall of the
no problem. And then one high school spirit was one plus high-spang. And then another high school
spirit should then be enough to knock this out. And also time is coming up. Now,
And that is the World Mega Rush.
In the IGT Time of 25 minutes, 28 seconds point 3-8.
Well, I know the RNG was not, you know, super fun, but I think that you pivoted and improvised extremely well, and thank you so much for showcasing that off. Like I said before, if it wasn't hard, it wouldn't be on the show.
It wouldn't be on the shelf, so I'd be appreciate you.
Now, the great time, if you want to tell all the wonderful people out there where they can learn more about you,
if you have a discord, a stream, shout-out, anything and everything, time is yours.
Yeah, so I have, when I am going pretty much every social media panel,
they can find this, you know, a crisis for us. It doesn't 90% chance that it's me.
Typically, I do streams of Pokemon, although I will a bit, is in a more European friendly time zone.
So if you're watching from, if you're watching from America,
you know, if you don't mind watching strings early in the morning,
then you know, you have at least your early morning entertainment.
So for you, well, I do mainly more modern Pokemon stuff.
Like, you know, ZIA and stuff, although I have been extremely tempted to move to the 3DS
so maybe there might be some of that coming of the window.
Yeah, if you enjoyed this, I will say that don't know where this run is and don't know me a lot better,
but stop, stop me happening. So we're just going to have to accept it. And yeah,
I think, I think that was pretty good.
With my bed behind me, because it's currently mid-1945, so we'll pack this up.
Yeah, no, I especially appreciate any time international runners are able to join us.
The time zones are always a little difficult, so thank you so so much for staying up with us
and hanging out with us.
We will let you get the bet and get some well-own rest because that run was incredible.
We will take a short break to get set up the Pokemon puzzle league super hard, which I'm
excited for.
And while we're on break, if you are looking to get more involved with the GDQ community,
You can join the official games on Quick and Discord and add the hotpicks roll so that you
can stay on the loop and update on upcoming shows events and more so you've
exclamation mark a discord and chat to learn more about that, but we'll see you in just a few minutes.
Hello, everyone, and welcome back to Parallelist Pass here on JVP.
I think you've got to ask me well, so as always, we are in the middle of a showcase of
challenging and adventurous speedrun, but before we get into our next one, speaking of
challenge in adventures. I want to let everybody know that GQ Hot Fix is hosting a special
game's gun blindfolded showcase on February 21st in 22nd and submissions are actually open right
now. So if you're interested in taking part in that you can type exclamation mark GDB in chat from
more details. Now as a quick aside, I was part of the Mario 64 relay at AGDQ. We had some blind
golden runners there and I got to see how they practice and to use the things and it's just
incredible to watch blindboard and runs, you know, done straight up live. It's really interesting.
So definitely check that out. And while we're talking about submissions, you can also,
if you want to do a normal submission, it doesn't have to be blindfolded, but if you can do a blind
photo, I will appreciate it. If you want to appear on GDQ topics, we are always accepting
submissions for new runs and we're accepting submissions right now for the winter season.
But if you got to run a showcase on the channel, whether that is for Peril's Path 4, a different
GQHP show. We have a lot of different shows with a lot of different things. You can go over
GDQHG slash submit slash topics or type exclamation marks submit in chapter more details.
Now, we are going to move into something that has a lot of peace in it. So we're going to do
Pokemon puzzle on perilous past featuring Pikachu. But this is going to be one player stadium
super hard being done by a wizard person. Wasn't person how are you doing today?
We're just dealing with some 20, 25-degree blows with a low zero weather here in Winnipeg with an up to the city's namesake of Winterpag.
Other than that, I'm cozy in my apartment.
Ready to show off some high-ock paint panel.
Do you say 25-degree?
Yeah, it's about 25 below Fahrenheit up here, so you don't want to be outside for more than 10 minutes at a time if you absolutely.
Well at least it's not, oh no, you have snow on Saturday.
That's wild.
But we don't have to talk about the weather, that's okay.
It's a little bit more about, by yourselves, the wrong way we can expect to see what makes it super hard.
I'm really excited. This is officially the first puzzle game that we've ever had on the show.
So we're branching into New genres and you carry four of you here.
On the other hand, it was quite the puzzle surprise that you're back up almost instantly.
Hello everyone. I am a wizard person. I'm going to be running Pokemon puzzle league on the
the super hard category and we're going to show you just why this category is so challenging.
It's not going to feel that way to me but to many of you and especially the versions of you
that were in grade school and this game came out 2000 and you were stuck on Warlife for 22 minutes
and couldn't get past it. We are going to get vengeance on the half of your younger
ourselves as we absolutely smashed through this difficulty and
joining me to help explain the mechanics of this game and what makes it so
challenging is a card to the heart.
So updids, this is cards of the heart. I've been
to be running this game since 2013 and you may, he
were may have seen me speedrun this very category at summer games
on quick 2015. And well, there's a reason that I am kind of considered the unofficial
grandpot of the Puzzle League speed-ren community. And you can confirm or deny that what is
a person? Yeah, you and Smart are the grandparents of this community, lots of
of institutional knowledge that you're carrying around.
Indeed, indeed, so we do expect this run to take some
are between 20 and 30 minutes, but there is a reason that this estimate is 40 minutes, and hopefully
you won't see too much of that as we head into this run.
With unless you have anything else to say before we get started, why don't we
You go and catch him.
Yeah, I'm gonna
Just gonna dial in at the beginning of the run-let card explain things
Uh, and then all I'll chip in with my own banter along the way
Uh, so yeah, we'll go ahead and get started in three, two, one
Panels
Good luck and fun
Thank you. Good luck
And you certainly need some good luck in order to get through this run, but uh, yes, this is Pokemon Puzzle
for the Nintendo 64 as was the first to be playing it on today, but it's also available on the
Wii Virtual Console and the Nintendo Switch Online expansion pack and all of those versions are
valid for submission on our speedrun leaderboards, which it fairly active, especially nowadays
reasonable into a little bit. But what you're seeing right now is a bit of a different
different type of game than what you might be used to seeing before. It's a puzzle game. This is a
match three puzzle game. So you can line up three panels of the same color and the design or
horizontally or vertically in order to make them disappear. But as far as the speedrun goes,
we're not going to get very far making matching just three. And even with doing more than just
matching for your running into some problems already. As we're seeing here, hopefully these
these are 16 opponents that we're about to see throughout this run will have too much of that.
So for this speed run, we're focusing on making combos in chains.
Combos are what you get by matching more than three of the same panel at the same time that can be
in a row, they can be in a row, they can be intersecting horizontally,
vertically at the same time, they can be all different panels.
There are lots of different ways to make combos.
And sometimes you will have to get creative with making combos in order to get through
this run.
The primarily, though, we're going to be trying to make chains, and you're going to see
the chaining done by wizard person here.
He's making a match and then letting the panels above it fall into another ready-made
Matcha a lot of it is make be made on the fly
Here's a lot of guests checking
going to this level out.
Oh, no. Fortunately.
So here's what we're primarily trying to do in this run.
This strategy is going to be more or less less consistent throughout the 16
saves we see here. Very fortunate there for Gary the first as we we
sometimes call him to run at a time. We'll smell him again later.
But we're going to be trying to attack these opponents with our combos and
chains in a very particular order. The combos, the the four-nero matches you're
seeing was a person make here are sending small, small, thin garbage blocks to
these opponents. And the chains are sending big thick garbage blocks that
these opponents that that's a guard box. You cannot interact with at all. The way you
that was close. Yeah, just talk talk over me. I rant at the same a lot. You know,
the group yet. Yes, yes, yes, for for reason we get into later. We've known this, we've known this for
quite some time. But not the way we're going to try to attack all these
of bonuses. We're going to be trying to make foreign or aerocombos at the very start of our
chains. And in this game, if you read your chain with a combo, then the garbage that you make from
that combo actually lands on your opponents before the thick garbage from the chain with land.
So that, so we're trying to attack with combos in a very particular fashion and also in general
We're trying to like chain until the opponent's fish is chaining and and doing it in expert fashion there
Will a will a result in what we call in the community a combo trap or at least that's that's a more recent name
I've been
Getting to it. These opponents when they have combo garbage
on
Directly on top of their
panels. They have a habit of only looking underneath the lowest garbage block on their field.
So, so if they have a bunch of panels, if they have a bunch of panels, but the garbage is sitting
in the one particular spot, one side or another on their field, then they're going to only
be able to see the panels underneath that lowest block and in a lot of times these
photos won't be able to see some things that a human player would necessarily be
able to see. So we're kind of like manipulating these opponents into thinking
that they actually have no moves when in fact today normally would. Now as someone
who sells like no frame of reference for this game it looks like we're selecting
Pokemon at the beginning of a battle and I see the obviously electric symbols here.
How do the Pokemon play into this and you roll types or weaknesses or anything else that we're trying to do?
This is cosmetic.
Yeah, this game used to be this game was part of a bigger series of games that started in
Japan with paneled upon on the original Super Famicom back in 1995, and it was reported
to the North America in the next year as Tetris attack.
So if you may have seen that in the previous previous games done quick iterations.
This game in particular used to be a prototype of a spiritual successor.
It's fine.
Oh, okay.
Hold on.
What was that?
I'm not sure about that.
Sometimes the sec of the analysis will do some.
That was weird things.
We've got some old garbage garbage dropping on top of them.
So, so these opponents are quite fast.
They will only get faster as the run goes along.
So we're trying to be particular about when we send these garbage attacks onto these
posts.
So where's the person we're trying to control the size of his chain that almost purely
from a timing perspective?
It's not really as much the size of the chain that you make, it's when you send it
that tends to be a bigger factor in when these opponents win or lose.
fortunately, unfortunately, they're the timing of that attack was pretty good, so
so Erica finally hit the dust there, but the timing is not always going to be obvious.
It's even after years, and years, and years of playing and speed-writing this game,
like the two of us, we don't get the timing perfect every time. And when that happens,
the speed of these foes allows them to play for quite a long time. It is not uncommon to have
a single stage play out more than five minutes at a time. And considering we're trying to
adhere to somewhat strict estimate here, here all days considered. We don't really have time
to let these stages play out a long time.
So what you're seeing quite a bit here is,
was there a person going back to the game level
select immediately after some time as passed
and just going right back into the level.
We call that a stage reset.
And sometimes we'll judge these times
based on how many stage resets they get.
And there's a thing we hope with the somewhat reckless abandon with which these opponents
will match panels that their stack will not be so nice and level to keep the combo garbage
blocks that we make from the touching each other.
If they're touching each other, the they're touching the big garbage that we're trying
to keep them from clearing, and it just waste a whole bunch of time whenever that happens.
By the way, you clear off garbage blocks that get sent to you by just making any sort of match
that touches that garbage block, and then that garbage block, and every other garbage block
touching it will have the bottom line of that block transformed into regular panel.
So you could use garbage to counter attack.
And that could get very interesting when you get into higher levels of players.
Actually, a pretty active PvP community for related more to the original version of this game.
The original processor to this game in Tetris Attack.
It's called Panel Attack.
It's a developed, developed, and launched.
This is that bear, more or less in the the same fashion as Tetris attack and you could actually play it gets other people online
which is certainly certainly makes for for some interesting back and forth though that that's a very nice way for for a Sabrina here to go down
Go down. Go down. That's not something that happens. That often.
Now of course we're here because obviously we're playing on Super Hard. We're here
for the difficulty in the challenge of it. So maybe could we talk a little bit about like
what the Super Hard that's setting to compare to other difficulties or the block
moving faster is the AI better is there? What is it kind of doing to us?
There are a couple of things that the level that the level choice does. They're actually
five levels to the one player stadium mode that we're playing on and then depending on
your overall skill level at this game you may have only ever seen three of them that being
easy normal and hard and the difference between those levels is basically basically the game engine
that that this mode plays at. If you are from there with this game, if you are from there with
with the versus mode just playing against other humans.
Humans in this game, you may see,
you may be familiar with the versus levels.
And the versus levels that affect various things
about how the game operates, like how long,
how long the panels take to fall after popping
and how long, how long, like once you get to the top
of the screen.
Once you're gradually rising panels reach the top of the screen, you have a little bit of a
grace period to try and make some other things happen before.
Again, try the force your panels through the top of the screen and make you lose.
You're playing on the...
It does take...
It's just as good and furying to playing it at times, if you're again, if you're familiar with
the versus levels, the easy level of this mode plays at a versus level of 1, the normal
mode plays at a level of 2 and the hardest levels, the hard, the very hard, the next
secret level, level of 4 this and the super hard level play at a level 4 which is kind
easy mode for these bones to try and recover from. That's a great, very interesting one.
Blaine is somehow ran out of time trying to figure out how to solve that.
Those kinds of timing outwinds are good. The much fewer and farther between now that we are
into the second half of this run, the Tracy sketch at here tends to be a bit of a
difficulty spike for us. Now we can't, honestly, can't figure out exactly why
that is. Like these opponents will get faster and faster as they go, but we're
not exactly certain of the thresholds that these opponents are playing with.
play with. Yeah, this is this is hard enough to play when you're when you're executing
properly, but that's again if you if you mess up or or have some bad luck
timing these attacks, so these opponents can last for like like five plus
minutes if you if you let them. We're trying to be very, again we're trying to be very
particular about the tining with which we send these attacks and we're trying to do some
some fancy little things like a lag change trying to do a build up our chains in a faster
manner than the ocean's normal. One, two, three pop-up, pop-up, pop-up. Pop-up.
But rhythm that this game normally clears panels in.
That's crazy. That's crazy. We're crazy. This one's at the time.
Very, again, very uncolden in the second half. It's not going to happen very well.
I will point out with how a wizard person is approaching these panels.
There's any sort of advice I can give to anyone picking this up for the first time.
It's always always always start with the combo.
Always try and match more than three at a time and you can you can make some good things happen just by
by making making those I'm making those combos
Of course of course when of course when the opponent is cooperating that that is oh
But rock it's gonna dump stack themselves
They're gonna
Pour out some blocks in an inefficient way as a down stack not clear in the garbage in the process and
to run themselves out of moves for the Crushkill
where else they call it a conch kill.
After all, Galvin caught in the community.
They're a big fan of those Crush kills.
So, I went ahead and named them after him.
Indeed, indeed, indeed,
hopefully we'll get to see a few more of those,
but at least those have no sense of self-control.
So, if they can, if they could potentially make matches to where they completely exhaust themselves
of panels, they will do so.
And if you could keep up your comboing and chaining, chaining until they do, do just that,
then you can certainly have yourself a good time with these opponents.
That kind of ability takes again years upon years of training to build and even
then we don't always get it right.
But it's so far, so far we're doing pretty good here.
I think a couple people in chat are asking about lag change if you want to give a
more in-depth explanation of those.
Right, so, right, as I was, I was trying to explain that you're seeing a particular rhythm
to which these panels are getting transformed.
You match them and then they disappear one at a time.
You're seeing the normal rhythm that was a person was making these chains to start the stage.
The lag chains are simply setting things up in a way to go faster than that intended rhythm.
And when these opponents get fast enough to the point where they can make it potentially empty their entire stack of panels in like 20 seconds,
you kind of have to have some sort of ability to keep up with the rate that which they are popping things.
So we will sometimes try to make chains in a way that they will land at different points
and actually increment the internal chain counter in different ways.
Fortunately, we're not having to do anything too fancy here so far.
This is actually going kind of crazy so far.
There's not a ton of time left, so really quick, I just want to say like when we get to Gary, that'll be our final opportunity to actually partner on Pokemon.
So if people want to spam in the chat, either keep it true, Bulbasaur or Squirtle, I will just kick the last Pokemon that I see in chat for the final stage where we have that option.
because this is no one really fast and parts just doing such a good job with the commentary.
It is, it is a very fortunate that these opponents are cooperating so far, but
looked a sharp and you always have to look. Yeah, yeah, yeah, Bruno, that makes sense.
That definitely makes sense.
Wow, yeah, we normally get a point that are this cooperative.
They're usually able to get to whatever match they can make, but to the panels, the panels
are randomly generated.
By the way, these panels have to be generated one at a time, and there's a long, there's
Last time remember there's like a long internal sequence that the game will
Will a reference to try and the pick with the next panel should be it can generate a unique string of like maybe half a million panels
So so so we can't count on the the same panels being used for every single stage
So so whatever is happening here in this run right right as
as we head into the final stage.
Yeah, we're already at the final opponent.
And it is Mewtwo and he's going to win.
Or maybe we're maybe we're, or maybe we're going to win.
I don't know, I don't know, Chad, are you, are you team?
I'm going to win or team?
I'm going to come on.
I'm going to win, I'm going to win.
Oh, that's a kill.
that is unfortunate.
So, now we're getting into a bit of a predicament
because the previous stages,
if they went wrong,
you could just pause, pause,
equip the game and go back to the level select
in the continued to retry the stage,
but we don't have that luxury here.
If you save and quit,
If you save a quits on this level, the game will actually punish you as it's normal
punishment for losing by taking you back to the previous stage.
So we would have to play Gary the second all over again if we were to quit this stage
and try again and it's usually not a good idea to do that but you are looking at the one
person who would I consider it and fortunately I'm worried about and time.
G. G. That was quick.
That yeah, that was what that was actually amazing like was how are you feeling during that
cause it seemed like you were getting really well.
I was just zoned in. The game was giving us plenty of presents and presents
in the form of just good block RNG and in the sense that they are just running those
cells out of panels when they normally find clears and just waste more of your time.
But I was dialed in.
I don't know if Card's mentioned specifically, but like the most challenging aspect of this
run is like not just doing the 15 chain or whatever because what they're a lot to get players
I can do that, but I'm also looking over the opponent's screen while I am changing.
So this looking over her's looks at the end and then getting back to my chain and seeing
what the both the best times have dropped that chain is.
So like I was dialed in with my focus and the good execution and good luck is what it takes
to get a really good time in this run.
or per shirt, that screen, that screen watching,
looking at your point, it might be the most difficult
to part of learning the higher levels of the speed run.
Now, before we go too much further about this,
allow me to blow your mind's mind's chat
about how fast this category is.
This was a really good run that was a person just put up
right now.
In the low 20 minute range is not something we see
to often in this category.
the game sane for a marathon, frankly.
Yeah, the world record for this category,
by the way, is 12 minutes, 47 seconds.
And wizard person's personal best in this category
is 15 minutes, seven seconds.
So as good as this was, it was the close to a personal best.
It was not close to a world record.
That's just how random this category is.
We, like, when these opponents do not behave,
they will not behave for a long time.
We fully expect these runs to take 20 to 30 minutes.
But again, if you get the wrong RNG,
and then you're not on your game that day,
runs can definitely go towards 40 minutes.
So that is why we basically have to have a 40-minute estimate
for this category every time we presented
in front of a marathon audience.
So yeah, yeah, it was a person well done.
Well, thankfully, we've seen it all today.
We had terrible RNG in the first run,
and now we're having fantastic RNG.
So we're getting it all today.
But if you want to take a moment to get
any like final shout outs,
let everyone know where they can find you.
If you stream anything like that,
now's a great time.
Yeah, I go on and off with this game,
just because it's very grindy, it's very RNG,
heavy, and I kind of hurt myself out on it,
and then I come back.
I haven't been getting back into it more recently, so if you want to follow me at twitch.tv slash wizard person under score
and you want to see a much salty or rage fuel version of me as I react to the bad luck I get in this game.
Feel free to come and hang out. I'm very friendly despite my iron tortus game at times.
Thanks to cards for hopping in and doing some incredible commentary on this game.
Just like bringing things down for the chat and just sharing his analytical expertise because he has spent like literally over a decade on this game.
Maybe maybe too long, maybe too long,
with the depending on who you are asked.
But yeah, I'm also regularly
speedwriting these games.
This game, in this series of games,
over on my personal twitch channel,
twitch.tv slash cards of the heart.
I also stream on YouTube and rumble and kick
with your, to those sorts of flavors of live streams.
And before we go, I definitely want to make sure everyone is aware of where we are hosting
a monthly speedrun tournaments for this game with GameA.
I've been making sure over the last several years to host an annual tournaments for not only
this game, but on positive, but also Tetris Attack.
if you are a fan of this series,
but need to take things as slower speed.
We do play Tetris Attack as well as Pokemon Puzzle League
and we've been also running a monthly tournaments
for the past couple years to feed into those big tournaments
that we have at the end of every season.
In fact, and in fact,
I write this moment is very good time
to jump into our Pokemon Puzzle League
because our very next monthly tournament coming up.
But we've named them after the individual stages,
but then Pokemon Puzzle League.
So it's the Lieutenant Surge Open that is coming up next
on our schedule.
It's a set for the weekend of February 7th.
And if you are watching live right now,
you can actually come to our Discord server
at the League of Puzzle Speedrunners.
just Google League of Puzzles B-Mers,
and you should be able to find us
and our YouTube channel where we post the archives
of our speedrun tournaments.
And you come to our Discord server and qualify
for that tournament right now.
If you have a Twitch stream, you have a way to play this game.
You're more than welcome to join us
in to see what you can do.
Fortunately, you don't have to play super hard
because the super hard category is reserved nowadays
for the very finals of our end of your tournaments.
So you won't have to,
you won't have to deal with the randomness
that's at this level,
break brings right away.
And hopefully hopefully that will make things a bit more
newbie friendly to those of just getting used to this game
in this speed run for the first time.
But again, we can do a five-chain, you can run this game, even a couple of four chains, and we're very
surprised.
We love having new community members.
You'll get the hang out with top runners, like me and Tards and Neffa Far Pro, and it's
a six in the chat and Tetris Attacker.
And also, the League of the Puzzle Speedrunners gives me very much like Scott Pilgrim, League
of the story in gentlemen, like it's a very honest, cool sounding name. I love it.
Thank you very much for showcasing this. This was incredible. And like I said, the first time
we've had a puzzle game on the show. And I'm not going to be the last because that run
was incredible. We were going to take a quick little break as we get set up for our last
run of perilous past, not at the evening, because we still in the senior route coming up.
We're going to be doing Pokemon trading card game on hard mode, featuring Fortnite. That's
going to be awesome. So don't go anywhere. We'll be back in just a few minutes.
It's Thursday.
Now before we get into our last run of the show and the maybe the second last time you'll
see in this Pikachu. I do want to let you know that we are currently looking at back to
Black 26, which is February 5 to 8th as a four day speed run marathon featuring Black speed
runners and benefiting race forward. So you can use Exclamation Mark schedule and Twitch chat
to check out the event or visit gq.jg slash b af to learn more. And of course Black and Flash
is a community that uplifts and connects Black speed runners of all levels. Those getting special
events throughout the year, like back to Black 2020, six to raise money for charities
and celebrate Black voices in the speed running scene.
So, likewise, use X-Wane Shemard BAF into a chat to learn more.
Now, we have one more run for you today in the world of Pokemon.
That is the Pokemon trading card game on a hard mode featuring the legendary Super Mario 64
relay runner tour tonight and their commentator, Pine Coan, how are the two of you doing today?
Wait, Pica.
We are doing excellent. Thank you so much for the wonderful introduction. As eloquently mentioned, I am, you know, the greatest red coin at TikTok clock. Star getter a full time.
that no don't fact check neat, don't fact check neat crowd.
But yes, well, well, welcome, I'm Tornite.
This is a very special way to play Pokemon TCG.
You may remember me from the 20 million
different playthroughs of this game, Pokemon TCG
on Hot Fix in the past.
However, this was going to be a little bit different.
This is hard mode.
Hard mode is to kind of very simplified the premise of it.
Imagine doing a card game speedrun with zero cards starting out as opposed to the 80-ish 90 total
card that you're typically starting out with. So you may be wondering to yourself,
wait, hold on, this is this is a really cool mod. No, it actually is not.
As you can see, this is done on the officially on the Nintendo Switch Online version of Pokemon
TTG and it's actually possible to do so on most official copies and ports of the game.
the way we do this is by doing a save corruption glitch that is a little bit too
inside baseball for even my way of explaining it but for stuff that is for a lot of
the stuff on the technical side of things and a lot of the things that we're going to
be showing off for out the entire game I have with me the wonderful pine cone with me on
commentary. Hey good evening yes I'm really excited to be able to show off our
mode on hot fix. This started as a pretty humble category extension many years back when
someone was messing around with glitches and it's kind of blossomed into its own deep
variant of trading card game speeder and things. So thank you to our expert for giving me a
long and we'll explain how this works as we go as opposed. Right. So before let me make sure
that I am on the proper, okay, I'm a measure on the proper safe state. This is
important for a very specific reason. That may or may not play a role in about a
minute or so. So I'm going to count this down. However, the actual setup to
actually being able to do a run in the first place will start actually before
I even start counting down. At the start of the game, we get a free booster pack.
And luckily, that booster pack has a lot of great card. But we are looking for one specific
card hit one chance. That is going to be our age for pretty much most of the first half of the
run. And it requires a argument that starts from the very beginning of the software setting
the game, which I just did. And I have about 17.06 seconds from that software reset. So I'm going
to count us down from three, two, one, go.
And hopefully, we'll get it going.
And yeah, this mailbox, this email is the only cards
that Tornite has access to in the run at this point
because we start with zero cards.
That's what makes it hard mode.
And so Tornite's doing is using a timer at the beginning
be R&D to open that mail pack within a five frame window to get a very strong basic Pokemon
to build a deck around him and Chan.
This manipulation is what makes a marathon consistent, hard mode run even possible.
Um, discovered a couple of years back by yours truly here, um, and Torne, I'd really
take it into another level.
So far, first two tries haven't quite worked out.
We're looking at a couple of early frames for both of those.
It is obviously a very difficult thing to time that also looks a little bit on the
a couple frames early, maybe five, six frames a little bit.
Now, I am actually timing that's on an iPhone time.
So I'm basically eyeballing this.
If I'm not able to get this in the first couple of try, that is okay.
I have another safe state that has this already done.
hopefully. Yes, we do have a backup safety for this, but
all you're getting closer or slightly farther away. It's like six frames
are not. I'll give this two more goes. If not, then that is okay. We can
just start the one without we're going to another safe state that just
pretty much has just a hit on Jen and we can go on our merry way.
What's always worth the shot? It's a very cool thing to show off.
group up that is you are all five frames late okay yeah it is extremely
extremely difficult what one thing we also are not people might not consider are
thinking to do the count it's the fact that the switch also has input delay
so it's not just eye-balling thing but also having to do mental math in my head
as far as being able to do it that's unfortunate that's fine we can just start
here.
Yeah, there's about five or six frames of input lag on switch virtual console and the manipulation window is five frames.
Which makes it even harder to hit.
Luckily we have the safety backup save.
So we'll just use our imagination and be like, yep, that definitely happened.
So what Toro is doing now is the other source of cards without a deck is to
is to is this guy on the right the tornado just talk to who gives you free energy if you have
under under 10 energy cards remaining in your inventory. So what Toro did there is talk to the guy to get
free energy then build to deck of entirely energy to talk to him again in order to get free energy
20 free energy of every type and every card matters when you're playing a hard mode speedrun
So being able to get those extra energy really helps.
And now we're going to the earliest fights of the game.
Torneye is going to assemble the deck and then there it is assembled already.
And then going to be battling some of the early game fights.
Torneye's route focuses on the early game fights that give you a certain kinds of booster packs.
There are four kinds of booster packs in this game.
and a Coliseum is the booster pack that has about 80% 90% of the good cards that we use in the speed around the in it.
And so Torna is doing these early quick battles that are required to beat the game and give you Coliseum booster packs in order to improve his deck as fast as he can.
So far he's on OK luck on this battle.
It looks like, oh, that primate was a great news.
Yeah, I had a feeling of bassism going to happen.
Yeah, I'm in the past this thing to do in a trading card game speed run is to reset out of danger
because the way card game do bulls work is the battle either ends when you kill or
a KO of fixed number of Pokemon or if your opponent has no Pokemon remaining after you
KO won, it'll just end. And so it's often worth resetting until your opponent starts with only one
only one Pokemon or only two Pokemon. Like this is a one-on-one battle here. So this is
favorable odds. So Tornait's gonna go for this one and hopefully Jessica won't put anything
on the bench. There's one thing on the bench but it's also manageable. So we'll see how it goes
here. The one thing Chad has pointed out because of the the menuine and the screen background.
This is not quite a flashing light's warning by I am assuming most of the run will be
the quick menu and things like this.
So if anyone is sensitive to this type of input or visualist
going to be less, you know, feel free to do whatever it is you need to do.
But I'm imagining the rest of the run will be very, very quick just like this.
Yep.
Yeah.
The menu ring and the train card game is extremely fast and it can be, you know,
for some people that are sensitive such things.
It's a bit, you know, it can be a bit much.
Unfortunately, yeah, we've been getting...
It's not that green, it's lock against Fesca here.
Yeah, we've been getting Rick Roll to left and right,
hopefully now this means, I'll perfect.
Ooh, lock and flee, yeah, this is a turn one win.
The opponent has no time to even play other Pokemon,
which is ideal.
Hopefully we get that more often in the run.
That's a great start, other than...
Now with such quick menu in and so much going on,
for anyone that hasn't, you know, had experience either
in real life or through the game,
playing the trading guard, part game.
What are we kind of looking at here?
how do the mechanics of the game work,
what are we trying to accomplish, that kind of thing?
Yeah, so yeah, the Trinker game
were basically mimicking the like structure
of a mainline Pokemon game and that there are eight gyms
and you do battles against trainers,
except inside you're playing the actual mechanics
of the physical card game.
Where you have a deck of 60 cards that has energy cards
to power up your Pokemon,
Basic Pokemon and Evolution cards that you play to either Pokemon and then what are called trainer cards,
which are like little assisting items that help you similar like potions and Pokeballs in a game, similar items.
And so we're doing kind of these facsimile of real Pokemon battles by playing with cards,
where you play cards into play to summon Pokemon,
And you you drop them from your deck and all of that.
So all of this really quick menuing is playing these real life Pokemon trading card game battles by the by more or less the official rules against computer control opponents.
And so we're trying to basically complete as many card games as quickly as we can as fast as we can.
We can. The one thing for sure that it did say more or less, and that is true. The
opinion else certain battles go, we may potentially be using strats that in the real world
TZG, they have since made actually a legal, just because of all the shit that can be done
with some of the things we may end up doing. So hopefully, how am I going to that? Okay, tackle.
That's fine. Yeah, you're all right. So there is one major rule difference that we
exploit each and every battle. So in the current rules and for most of the history of the trading
card game in real life, if you draw your starting hand of seven cards and you don't have a basic
Pokemon, you take a Mulligan and you draw a new hand and your opponent is allowed the option
to draw extra cards, which is a huge advantage. In this video game that you are allowed to draw
new hand if you don't start with a basic Pokemon in your hand, but your opponent gets no benefit.
That rule is huge for us because it means we can build decks that only have one Pokemon
in them.
In order to guarantee that we're always going to play with that same one Pokemon.
And that's pretty much the rule change that makes hard mode possible.
This deck right now only has Hitman Chan as it's only Pokemon and that's how we're
able to start with Hitman Chan every single time.
A very powerful basic Pokemon with high HP and a high damage attack that exploits a common
weakness allowing us to take advantage of these early game fights.
And we're a little bit late here, but can we give some love the fat Pikachu?
I miss fat Pikachu.
I hope that Pikachu's coming back for I think it's the 30 35 year anniversary, whatever.
So Pokemon's doing some fat Pikachu stuff, but like, let's give some love to the fat Pikachu.
Yeah, and depending on how this run is going to end up going, we might actually get to see
fat Pikachu in our deck for a brief second.
that is true one of the options for the route um you know a lot of the hard
mode route will depend on what Pokemon Tour and I acquire through these
booster packs and fat Pikachu is a beloved option for the water gym coming up
we'll also see a few trainers have fat Pikachu hopefully um I guess we I
guess we are now out of I guess we've now encounter most of them but the other
the other beloved Pikachu, I guess flying Pikachu is a form of fat Pikachu as well, who makes
a couple of appearances in their own. We've already had one trainer that could have had
flying Pikachu and then we'll see flying Pikachu hopefully or hopefully we won't see flying
Pikachu. It's a big drawback for the speedrun, but we may see flying Pikachu later at the science gym.
Yeah, and the one thing that makes hard mode in a part mode is the fact that even easy fights
because of the fact that we have nothing but one hit
one channel and no trainer goes to support us for
the entirety of the run.
Oh, electobus.
Oh, electobus is there.
That is.
Unfortunately, that means that our deck won't have
that Pikachu in it.
No.
Because electobus is another powerful 78-p-basic Pokemon similar to
Hitman Chan, but electric type.
Yeah, I am being in this game.
Yeah, and the hope.
And honestly, I actually would not
remind that a fact, Pikachu, because earlier I drew
into a, you know what, let's buy this out.
Let's like this one up.
You're going first.
You got a chance.
Yeah.
Um, the, I also got as a booster record ward.
The, one, one specific right shoe.
There are two rightures in this game.
One of them is the one that we want.
And it's one that can do as much as 60 damage with thunder and also have the potential
to be immune to all damage and status effects with agility, which by the way, that's one of my favorite
tropes up hook on DCG and it's just losing that aren't that good in the regular RPG. Just get
like massively buffed for the purposes of the train card.
Yeah, that is true. You'll see names of the packs that mean nothing to like competitive
of poking on battling or mainland Pokemon speedrunning that are our lifeblood here.
And you also see a tech name that are simply made up and have no, no, I didn't
log in the video game as well.
Yeah, I may have here no, I have one channel.
It has, as a tech that only does 20 damage with one energy.
It's just called jab.
It's like the most simple punch in all a boxing.
That's been our main damage dealer for most of this run so far.
Yeah, him and Chan's jab back when the base fossil original Pokemon card game at a game in real life.
Jim and Chan's jab was one of the most powerful attacks just because of how much damage it can do with only one energy on turn one.
Which is exactly the kind of thing we're looking for in a speedrun where we want to win as fast as possible.
So very unassuming attack name has a lot of consequences in here.
Well, if anyone was watching the Pokemon Legends
ZA run earlier, we did a whole lot of boxing there too.
So that definitely between the Pikachu and the punches,
which you know, another P word,
we definitely have our theme for the night.
By the way, shoutouts to all the runners
from today's episode, I was watching those runs
very, very carefully, and they were a lot of fun.
Oh, okay, oh, this is actually really fun.
So this Borgon has made, oh, you know,
You can version two.
Is it going to do the unwaverting theory?
Yeah.
It did a very bizarre thing that you can only see
in this one particular instance.
So Oregon normally is weak defining.
The version two naturally changes Oregon's resistance.
However, it has decided is going to make itself also
resistant to fighting.
So it became both resistant and weak defining
at the same time.
And you may be wondering, it's a way how does that work?
Well, the program was actually out of something about it.
And what they did is they basically,
there's a little bit of a formula in play when this happens.
What it does is it does, based damage times two
for weakness minus 30 for resistance.
And so 40 times two minus 30 is a 50.
And who said you can't learn anything and it's be printing?
Yeah, yeah, yeah, you do need to do some metal math.
Yeah, weakness in resistance will be pretty important
throughout the run for those not familiar with the card game.
It's similar, it's similar, but not exactly the same
as the video game Pokemon have up to one weakness
and up to one resistance.
If a Pokemon has weakness to your,
like a defending Pokemon as weakness to your attacker's type,
then it will take double damage from all your attacks.
Fighting is the most common weakness
in the trading card game,
which is part of why I haven't channeled so powerful.
resistance is a flat minus 30 damage, no matter how much damage you are doing, a resistance,
a ironically fighting is also the most common resistance in the Pokemon trading card game.
And so I guess psychic is up there too, but these will both, both of these mechanics have
like huge effects on the deck construction choices that we make throughout this speed run.
We'll be trying to exploit weakness anywhere we can.
that's a little hard work is fantastic by the way, it's just like fully armed legs out.
I mean, yeah, shut up.
There's quite work in this game.
The artwork, the music is just all just absolutely fantastic.
Yeah, taking the excellent art from the real world card game and translating it into beautiful
beautiful pixel art on the monochrome or not monochrome,
but the color name was screen is quite impressive.
All right, so up next is a particularly challenging
early game fight Amanda.
Unlike the other fights, Amanda only requires you
to KO3 Pokemon, which is the only way
the only good thing about this fight.
The bad news is that Amanda is one of the few trainers
in the game that has many Pokemon
that cover each other's weaknesses with resistance.
Um, Amanda has a lot of cipher, which is a free retreat
Pokemon that resists fighting. Um, and that fighting resistance is bad news
for us, but also has some strong water types that resist fire with his
cipher's weakness. And then finally, uh, Amanda has a bunch of cards that add more
basics or folk, pho basic Pokemon to the bench, uh, making this battle
often drag out for a long time. So what we do is we splash in a charm
to take care of side there. And in this case, we didn't encounter anything else. So we got
very lucky. That was actually a super fast Amanda, but normally a very scary fight, but, you know,
looks on our side if that one. Yeah. Yeah. The outside from the, you know, there's a little bit
of early game shenanigans that's with a lot of Pokemon TCG runs. We've actually kind of now settled
in and this runs actually off to a pretty solid story. We're going to make new mentioned on this,
But, uh, a couple of fights ago, I got, uh, I've reaped a massive sigh of relief because we got our win condition for the end game.
Uh, we did, yes, thought, we didn't get a Dutrio, which is going to be our A's for the entirety of the,
oh, no, not the entirety, but almost the entirety of the end game.
Yes, yes. So in a conventional speedrun of creating for a game, we can count on the cards that are included in the Starter deck,
When designing our route we can be like, well, we're gonna start if at least one done trio so we can we can use done trio the end of the game
But here we don't have that luxury so we really
You we really need to be paying close attention to what Pokemon we get
From these booster packs from battling these early trainers
In order to and if we don't get what we need we need to improvise fortunately
The Toro has been getting a wide variety of useful Pokemon.
Cypher here, for example, is what he'll be using against Dean, which is pretty much,
oh, wow. You blink at your misset. That was a super fast fight. I didn't have any time to
explain Jim leader mechanics. So I can do that.
I don't want to. I don't want to do that anymore.
I don't want to do that. That is true. Yeah. Yeah.
But so the early fights we were doing were to collect cards and to unlock all of the
the gym leader fights, which we need to beat the eight gym leaders or they're called club
masters, but we know they're gym leaders. And then once we beat them, we fight the equivalent
of the elite four in this game, which are called grandmasters. Unlike these early game
fights, which are, you know, only have up to four Pokemon KO, needed to win. The gym leaders
require up to six. And the gym leaders actually cheat. They will rig their shuffled decks
to guarantee they start with two basic Pokemon, and they guarantee that they'll have two more
basic Pokemon in the top five cards of their deck as well. So, generally, your battles are
significantly harder just on that. In addition, the decks tend to be better constructed, and so
that's where the real, like, fast decision-making and skill comes in, especially since
Tornite is going in with somewhat unknown decks that have varying quantities of cards, and we'll
need to maybe improvise on how to handle certain situations.
Yeah, so right now, Toranite is fighting the
be a one more stray battle Joseph who
unlocks another gym leader and then going to go to the water
gym with elective us.
78th P basic Pokemon as well. Let's you take early
game attacks and then can do up to 40 damage on with only two energy
which with all the lightning week Pokemon in the next segment is huge.
Now, we're seeing a lot of point flips, which are obvious R&G points.
I was just as a matter what coin we get, because I'm seeing, like,
plus 10 damage or something to it, the menu's going so fast.
But can you explain the point flips and how important it is to the run?
Sure. Yeah, for these, this Pokemon Electabuzz heads for the two-energy attack,
heads will boost the base 30 damage up to 40. Tails will keep it at 30,
but do 10 damage back to electabuzz.
You can see damage are presented with the black dots,
and so you have to be careful
that you hopefully don't get too many tails.
And also in general, you want to use attacks
with coinflips as little as you can with electabuzz
that's on avoidable just.
But coinflips take about a second and a half each
and that really adds up over the run.
There will be times, especially in the water gym,
where favorable coinflips may need to be forced.
At which point will show off in real times
some R&G manipulation. We'll explain those R&G mechanics as they come up just because
that would eat all of our time. But going into here we have the Pre-Gim leader battle
against Joshua. He has the second most basic Pokemon in his deck of anyone in the game.
And so this tends to be a long drawn out fight. So far, while Josh has a lot of Pokemon, none of them
are especially threatening, so this is a relatively safe fight, but it looks like that
getting tails is concerned. So one thing that Torna just did there, where he soft reset
the game and kind of went back in time in the battle, put one train card game kind of has its own
equivalent of save states called continued dual, which is that if you turn off the game and come
back to it, it will return you to the battle at your last most recently completed decision point.
Which is really handy if you haven't finished clicking through all the menus about the decision you just made such as if you didn't attack and you don't like it.
So what Toro did is realize that he was going to flip tails and then went back in time basically to play a defender trainer which prevents damage to self in order to mitigate the effects of that tails.
using these kind of like information gathering techniques
with continued dual will happen throughout the run.
And it's a great way to make otherwise risky
strategies a lot safer.
And I want to take that this opportunity to kind of
dispel a long standing.
Back yard, one of those like mu is under the truck
rumors.
No, if you hit the A button on the coin flip
flip when the Pikachu fades, it shows about to start hitting, no, it is not an automatic
head.
It is predetermined and I so many people believe that I believe that when I was a kid
because I thought I'd read that online, so I'm just here to also this Bell that rumor that
you cannot manipulate the coin flip in that regard.
It'd be cool.
Yeah.
But unfortunately, that's not the case.
That said, there are a lot more cool ways to manipulate the coin flip that we'll be doing
probably in this battle is one of the more important battles for coinclips. So the way the
R&G works, just as short as I can make the explanation, the R&G constantly increments every frame
like a lot of old games until you start a battle, at which point the R&G stops incrementing,
until something needs a random number, at which point the R&G will be incremented.
And relatively few things need random numbers in the trading card game, which means that
It's like only when a coin is flipped or a deck is shuffled very rarely when a CPU makes a certain decision
And that's about it. So if you know you use an attack and it gets tails
You can use that continued tool feature to go back in time and then maybe play a card that shuffles your deck or play a card that flips a coin
And then now the coin flip that you get when you use that attack will be different
or maybe different, you know, 50-50 chance again, right? You got another role of the dice, so
it's all I got. Unbelievably unlikely. That is extremely rare to see in this category.
Yep. The gunner uses to give us time to explain the R&G, so.
Yeah.
And happy actual. Yeah, we're looking at the other two.
We just, you know, I'm just gonna reset that.
Just try again. Yeah.
Yeah, that's so mysterious. Fossil is a trainer card that we have that is basically a fake Pokemon.
fake Pokemon. It is useful to serve as a buffer to like take attacks and stuff while we're
setting up. But you shouldn't attach energy cards to it.
Toro basically just kind of fumbled through the menu there.
With menuing this fast, it's really easy to make mistakes. So that's another benefit of
this constant saving and resetting that we do is that you can go back if you make an input mistake.
Yeah, the ball got that feature in a lot of other speed games.
Now, I could be naughty, naughty, and just actually
you do such online rewind feature to just undo
that mistake that way.
But we're trying to do this legitimately.
So yeah, that's outright cheating versus, you know,
this legitimate method within the roles.
So.
OK.
Ooh, that's going to be, ooh, that's going to be actually
a very, very good potential RNG points
lip manipulation instance.
Yeah, after a couple of false starts there,
in some really bad luck. The only thing standing between Toro and Victory is a
tails here. Smoke screen is an attack that gives you a 50-50 chance of it failing.
Since Toro knows he got a tails, he can play a pokeball to use up the tails.
And then he gets a new coin flip for the attack to lock in the win. That is a perfect example
of coin flip orange manipulation that Toro just did to win that battle.
All right, now we got two medals. Well, you're now going to encounter our rival
Ronald for the first time and we have this incredible stat to get through Ronald. It's genuinely one of the greatest
strat strats in speed running history of all time. I kid you not. It is that powerful that it's a guaranteed
1,000% sure progression. We go up against one. You got the little little, look at it. You got some
You know, smelly-related, Gary Oak, and it's in Gen 1.
Get a Pokemon game. Of course the rival's gonna act that way.
So we got our Mac to play right here.
And we are going to, let's see,
hopefully we don't get confused.
We don't get confused. All right, perfect.
So now that we go and set up back to my way to hold on to no I
I mean you lost
I meant like I don't know
You know
Oh, let an awful mistake
Oh, no, all right, so you know I listen to the hold on we got another chance
I get say this is a shirt fired
It's a threat for progression. I never said winning
Yes, that there's no reason to win a rival fight in Pokemon trading card game.
The only reward is a card that we won't use, and it's a six prize fight that takes too long.
So the fastest way through it is to guarantee a loss using a Pokemon that can KO itself.
And Magnumite is one we have a lot of that has a cheap attack to do it.
Shout up to AJ for coming up with that strap for intentional losing.
In the past before we figure that out, we're just throwing out weak Pokemon and hoping
Ronald would decide to win, which he doesn't always do.
So we forced the issue back, but it's very nice.
Yeah, a lot of the stuff in this game.
I started cutting off, but a lot of things in this game really
can be credited to AJ.
We even have a threat that we may potentially see in the next couple of fights.
We're really called AJ's friend because he,
because AJ is that influential to the progression of this game's
speedrunning history.
Now when it comes to levels of the Pokemon, like right now it has a level eight
big lit which is punching above its weight on a level 35 there.
How do the levels play into this?
Is there any sort of thing that we need to do?
Okay.
Yeah, level is essentially part of the name of the card for this game.
So it's essentially just like the Pokemon's name is, did level eight?
But there's no experience, there's no leveling up.
There is evolution from playing the evolve form
of a Pokemon on top of its basic Pokemon form.
But Diglet-Level 8 is just what the cards call.
And depending, there's one specific fight.
That, I imagine glad you actually mentioned
brought the attention to the level.
There's one fight in this game that I always absolutely
love pointing out the levels.
this grep and see because you would never in a million years have to
at whatever see this in a regular TTG or on a regular Pokemon RPG game
but a not gonna spoil it just because you will it one of those like if you play
this game long enough you will know what matchup I will be referring to.
Right.
Yeah, I'm just gonna say for now, dig a little level eight is really punching
about his weight here, hanging out with these 30s and 40s and just two hit
cowing them all. But yeah, no, the big thing for this this lightning club
Jim leader battle here is that diglet and his evolved form of trio resist
lightning. And so all these lightning pokemon basically cannot touch
diglet. So other than status it's only a matter of time before this this
It's generally just defeated. It's almost a free fight.
Yeah, so right now I think so we're kind of going to a little bit of a boss rush.
And yeah, a little bit of a boss rush. The segment because the next few fights are just going to be
nothing but bosses. So the trio is going to play a massive role in this. Normally I don't
include him much in this one, but because we only have one the trio. I'm going to play this
a tiny bit safer
uh... and adding hit on chant
it into the boat
yeah and you'll meet you'll meet him in the next one
yes that's true
so uh... for the we're not battling cam the fire gym leader
um... and
despite fire not having any weakness or resistance or anything with fighting
um...
can's that happens have a lot of uh... colorless normal type Pokemon
in this case, which who are weak to fighting.
So, Diglet and Montreal remain a strong option,
stronger than the water type, so it'll have access to it as well.
That Jigglypuff artwork was something else.
It's like the angriest scene I've ever seen.
Yeah, I think there's three different Jigglypuff in this game,
and they all have phenomenal artwork.
Oh, am I?
Okay, maintenance, okay, it's gonna reroll the RNG, so that is perfect.
I was gonna take an L right there, but hopefully.
Yeah, hopefully you got a tail here, because that maintenance does shuffle your deck.
There we go.
Nice, yeah, so heads would have made Taurus as 20 damage attack to 10 more, which would have
of KO'd right as Toro was about out to win the fight, so being able to see if you can save
it saves a lot more time versus just restarting.
Boy, that hemachena shirt came in handy for this one.
So the vibes of the hemachena being in the deck gave you the lucky needed.
You know, you know, when you're right, you're right.
So we do have some of people in Chad just now joining us part way through the run.
Do we want to take an opportunity to explain a hard mode again?
I'm sure there's a lootley, uh,
bintow floors yours as we're about to deal with one of the maybe
the most annoying, sure, I annoying boss fight where you
Pokemon do. Yes, so hard mode is a category extension of
the normal, any percent glitchless speedrun for, uh,
Pokemon trading card game where a saved corruption, ironically,
a saved corruption glitch is used to, so that you start the game
with no cards, which makes it very hard to play a card game.
So how Torneight has been doing this instead of having the dependable 90 cards that we know
we start with.
Torneight has been gathering cards anywhere he can from winning battles from a mailbox, from
a guy giving him pre-energy cards and basically kind of ad-libbing the decks that he will
be using to complete the trading card game around here.
It's hard mode because you literally are routing on the fly as you play it.
It's a lot more like a road like the speedrun at that point.
And Toro's one of the best to do it.
Yeah, I think I'm not going to say it now.
I could be right.
I might be one of three people ever to have done
a sub-hour pd in this category.
That is true.
I mean, yeah, one of the best to do it in a niche Pokemon game
is maybe more limited.
But you know, they're almost dozens of us.
Oh, but yeah, I don't think I can say it's funny guys right here.
It's funny to hear described as a roguelike because people have been with us for a while.
I remember our older theme, which was sold like roguelike's in Metroidvania.
So any opportunity to get something described as a roguelike is always welcome.
All right cool, we got a fairy.
No, the random elements.
I mean, there's not literal permada up
but in the speed run, you might as well have it.
And then having to adapt on the flight of what you get
is brings up memories of like Slay's Fire
or Belotra while they're wrote like card games kind of things.
All right, so we got our fifth medal
or badge however you wanna call it.
It's time to see if the intended Magnumite Strat
that was only there from the very beginning
And not to accidentally click as of the circumstances going to work this time.
I have a feeling that we're going to get brutal pretty soon.
It's a hunch, I know it's hard mode, but I just have a hunch.
All right, all you got to do is not click the lose button.
We'll see what happens.
Ah, you know, no process.
I don't know, it's used, you know, look inside your heart decide what the heart of the card
I don't think I'm supposed to click this button.
Yeah, I don't think I was supposed to click this button.
Oh no, you lost again.
Oh no.
All right.
Well, yes, the Ronald second round will fight as much
like the first.
There's no reason to win it because the reward is very
little and the time loss is very great.
There will be one more Ronald fight at the very end of the game
and we do have to win that one.
So hopefully that time will remember to not hit self-destruct.
I find go do we actually have to win that one, do we?
Up to you, I mean, you know, you're the runner here, runner's choice.
But yeah, Torne, I picked up a Mewtwo here, which is a Card U unlock, a promotional
Card U unlock for beating the psychic gym, and this Mewtwo level 60 is able to do 40 damage
on turn two, much like elective us, and through a mechanic where if it can attach energy
to itself via the discard pile. We'll see if we're able to actually do that part. But it is a strong
psychic type attacker. Because all of the normal types in the game resist psychic, there's limited
battles where we can use it despite it being really powerful, but Mitch, the fighting type
gym leaders of perfect case for it. Unbelievable. First go at it. I'm still happy.
Oh, I've got the oak too. So the oak puts the energy cards that were in Torna's hand into the
the discard pile so that M2 can use its attack to attach those energy cards directly to
it, saving two turns.
Big time safe there.
Yeah, now this is literally the optimal.
This is like about as good as start opening hand that you could possibly ask for in hard
but I'm very, very happy because this is a fight that if you get really bad deck shuffling
RNG, oh boy, you're going to be in this fight for a while because Mitch has a lot of
very powerful I damage the healing Pokemon.
But thankfully, on YouTube is King, so.
Yep, yeah, and fighting Pokemon in this game
can do damage really quickly.
So if YouTube doesn't get that quick set up,
it can be taken down before YouTube has a chance to attack.
So having that turn one locked in set up on the first try,
it was a huge stroke of luck for Tornite,
really making the best use of the cards
that we were able to randomly get.
Um, and next up is science club, which science is not a type.
It's not a type in the card game.
It's not a type in the video game.
The types and the TPPG in 1998, they have to invent a gym.
They do invent two types.
Yeah.
So there are only six types in the Pokemon trading card game in 98, like other than
colorless.
And so rock gym was one of the types invented, which is really another form of
fighting in this card game.
And then science, as best as we can tell, it's like an analog for like bug or poison sort of kind of.
But yeah, all the Pokemon in Rick's deck are also weak to psychics. So in addition to
me to a more reliable strategy for Rick is to use Abra and Cadabra. That's because Cadabra does
slightly more damage and can evolve and the evolution process can cure status moves that sometimes
to the center of the
home. All right, this is
by the way, you're mentioning
levels earlier. Um, notice the
level of that in YouTube.
Notice the level on this
Avra. Have you noted that it
is actually that if you're
to replace it in the card
game, you literally this
literally cannot happen.
Avra does not know any
moves other than teleport
at this point in time in the
franchise. Yep. Yep.
The magic of trading card
games a tiny level 10
the most powerful Pokemon in the game in just a couple of
currents. And what the most important
the average just like send them to the tree
having a picnic to like this is not the
to be. I just I just punch me to in the face
like whatever I want. I'm not even going to stand up for it.
Yeah, we we love chill low effort.
Abram.
Cadabra is significantly more hardcore in the
art here. Very very focused in terms
and just like that, the Rick battles also
done. Yeah, I actually shout out to Pankon
for actually inspiring me to use this strategy.
Typically, I would just only go forever,
cadaver, however, seeing Panko
and over the past year, using a hybrid
cadaver and YouTube strategy for this fight
and the next one we're about to do,
actually kind of makes this portion of the run
a tiny bit more consistent believe it or not.
At least in my personal experience.
So that is definitely one of the cool things
of a Pokemon THG, and then the game is never truly
optimized. And I think that's to its benefit because this game rewards a lot of creativity
and it rewards experimentation, do we doing a lot of things that, you know, that kind of goes
against the norm in some regards and a lot of times you strike gold. I mean, it wasn't, I mean,
pine cone, another example is the fact that for years, we did not even take a look at the
the Bulbasaur deck as a potential starter option.
And I will turn to a pine gun.
I think like whatever talking like 2021, 2021.
Yeah, yeah.
You kind of took a look at this deck
and thought through yourself, wait a minute.
There's a lot of really good stuff to take advantage of.
And it's now basically the premier starter choice
for top runners.
Like if you look at every single top runner
who has entered the top 10 and the last few years
with the exception of Rod and Trank,
shout us to Rod by the way.
All of them have used,
including myself, have used the Bolesor deck.
Great, unfortunately for Hard Mode,
we don't get any decks.
So I can't make, but in all seriousness though,
yeah, this is not a game with a fixed route,
certainly not for Hard Mode,
but even in the more conventional speedrunning games,
like anything from the decisions of the order
of the battles you make to the cards that go into your deck,
which always varies a little bit every time,
but certainly hard about it varies a lot
to which Pokemon you use.
There's a significant like runner preference
and experimentation there.
And so it's a very cool game for trying out new things
and seeing what works.
For this last segment before the dome,
we have to be the grass gym.
And so we're going with,
you got plenty of top rapidass there, right?
I only got, I only got plenty to, unfortunately.
The heartvel's twice again, I get no rapid edge,
but I do get base sent MacMar Witch.
It's a MacMar, I see.
Yeah, that's good back up.
So these are both Pokemon that of the ability
to do 30 fire damage by turn two.
And with grass's usual typical weakness to fire,
that is often enough.
But yeah, the exact fire types you use
are gonna depend on what cards you get.
Both in heart mode and in regular runs.
So fortunate to get both ponytail and magma and good quantities
with your two strong options.
Yeah, there's a realistic chance in this category.
Actually, and even very rarely in any percentage
glitchless, you do not get a chance to draw a single ponytail
in a single magmark.
So at least for me, I'm left scrambling
on the very rare occasions, it happens to think
of a new deck on the fly and whether it's trying
to go for, oh, why am I saying the game, not yet.
The ethydr, you know, going with Charmander again,
if I also happen to get Charmander
because it's also a chance I don't get Charmander or Growl live.
So I just said the one thing about this game
is that you have to be prepared to think on the fly.
So a lot of this game is a lot of it is mental.
And that is one of the really cool things about this,
is the fact that it challenges you in ways that
Traditional speed games typically don't if being able to route things out on the fly and kind of do a lot of like quick mass
That you otherwise don't really
Have to think about in others beat it like I like I speedrun stuff like those in your Mario golf Spyro like none of those things have me
Rethinking everything that I know on the fly
Yeah, not just in deck building, but also with especially within battles
There is constant decision-making being made, you're being thrown in situations you haven't seen before, where you have, you know, micro seconds to make a decision optimally.
Micro seconds. There's different ways.
I mean, you have you have as long as you want. I suppose, but every second counts of the speedrun, right?
Oh, but in any case, so being able to deal with things like this status here,
this here, House Toro going to get out of this one is Toro going to try to manipulate the
battle beforehand is Toro going to we're going to have to see. I actually don't know.
Wait, okay, okay. I'm not going to get out of the way.
This is one of those things we're like, okay, there's a wrong thing. Get on the fly.
Poison, okay, okay, 1998. I can't think Monty G, got to think 1998 rules. I mean,
it's just 10 damage here. I can escape the damage.
It's get the poison and
Just have this fossil be the sacrificial limb
Yeah, so yeah, this is where mysterious fossil really comes in handy because it doesn't count as a basic for starting the battle like you still to draw a pony top
But it does count as a basic for giving you something that you can retreat into and if you retreat
In 1999 Pokemon it cures status
So it's a great way to get rid of the poison and to lock in the guaranteed w for the Nicki fight here
All right, so now we are actually only five fights away from beating the game.
We think there's a man, he's really, really under estimate.
Oh, trust me, I'm going to need it.
I don't know how much time I don't know what the timer is right now.
There's a chance I'm going to need it, so I'm going to need every second of it.
So, first of all, I'm going to enter here, see that there's grandmasters, a deck, a table, and everything.
I run away like a little baby and open my mail and see what bills I have to pay.
Right.
So going back to the very beginning of the run, when we had absolutely no cards,
our only source of cards was an email, however that works.
The game actually sends you emails as you challenge each of the gym leaders in order
to help give you good cards and advice.
But we haven't been checking them because we haven't needed to.
But now going into the Pokemon dome,
we want as much reliability as possible.
We want to buff our card count as much as possible.
So we're just really quickly opening all these free booster packs
we get in the mail, which is maybe like 30 seconds,
45 second time penalty, but ultimately the reliability
is worth it.
We're getting some really key trainers in the call CM packs.
We got some like a potion and an oak, I think.
We got some, we got a plus power, some really useful things
that'll help us.
That last might even come in handy.
Yeah, that might be one of them, including just so I could scramble the AI here.
So let's see what I have.
Oh, there's a wrap at that.
Cool.
They're nice of you to show up to them now.
You have a wrap at S-PERS.
Let's see.
What do I get?
A chore to Kuno's in three.
You know, I'm not in love with our searching abilities.
So I'm actually going to go with our Kuno, which I am more than okay with.
Yes.
Yeah, there's a couple of options for this first leap for battle.
battling the grandmasters in the Pokemon Dome. Now Courtney has a
multi-space fire deck so we want a water type. Articuno is of course you know the
water bird right now in the game it's an ice type but in the trading card game
it's a water type because there's no ice and water beats fire so normally this
would be a terrible match up in the video game but in the card game it's a very good one.
on.
By the way, I'm about to go through the first fight.
Pine cone.
One explain how every single member of this dome is using a legal card that should not
ever be used and have never been used in real life.
That is absolutely true.
So the game has some Game Boy exclusive cards.
In them, including the legendary Pokemon cards, that is, these are the cards that you
as a trainer are hoping to win and they, they're the three legendary birds and then Dragonite.
All four of these cards have an effect that happens as soon as you put them into play.
Multtrace, if for this battle, has an effect that searches the user's deck to get more energy
cards, probably the mildest of the effects for our purposes. So these illegal cards as
than they can, they have never been printed in real life are giving the AI a huge advantage.
They have a 100 HP and no weakness so they are very hard to take down.
So we'll just have to do our best here.
Articuno is able to do 50 base damage with a 4 energy which is two at Kale and the 100 HP
Multress and then the water type advantage makes quick work of all the other Pokemon in the battle.
So far we're having pretty good luck haven't had major issues with status or attacks.
Multress can do 70 damage at once if it successfully flips a coin and gets three energy,
but fortunately Toro is able to KO this multress before that happened.
Chat is shouting out the incredible music that we have going right now.
Oh my god the music.
It's so good.
But if you ever have had like a free 30 minutes, 45 minutes of, uh, and just in the mood of listening to like some really good, uh, old school game boy soundtrack, this is an excellent soundtrack to listen to.
Yes.
Yeah, the the trading card game soundtrack.
I, when I was trying to pick a game to first start speed running one of my friends to give me the advice of pick a game whose music you could never get sick of.
And I immediately thought of creating crudging because every single one of these songs is a
banger, but especially the, uh, especially the bookmondo music.
So going into this next fight, uh, Tornite's going to be switching to a Diglet-Dub
trio deck that, um, if I had guests, Tornite will be using for the rest of the run.
Uh, but this next fight, it's particularly useful for is the legendary bookmondo Zapdos,
and so it's a lightning deck and the trio resist lightning.
Zaptos is the most problematic for us, and most annoying of the legendary birds.
There are three different kinds of Zaptos in this deck, but the legendary Zaptos with 100 HP
is the biggest problem by a lot.
That one that we saw is also a problem?
Yeah, that's going to be tough.
So the problem with Zaptos is unlike every other lightning type that resists fighting.
Now, DupTrio is such a powerful Pokemon that we're able to overpower that resistance,
but we need to have the DupTrio in order to do that. And we only have one in the deck.
Taking your chances on happening to draw the DupTrio right time, can be risky.
But luckily, we have cards like Pokeball that will help us search for it and getting heads
allows us to pick any Pokemon we want, like that DupTrio. If we now have save for later.
Yeah, that's that. That's going to be okay. All right.
you know, all right, listen, we're having a fun actual way. I can try to see if we can
we can manipulate the energy search will. So the thing that just happened is that
Zapdos is on play Pokemon Power does 30 damage at random. Oh no, I'm gonna keep it
away. I'm gonna keep it because I have the tree involved in the attack. And
like not and we're not gonna get many chances you gave drift trail. Yeah, that is fair.
Oh, and it didn't didn't even play the Zapdos now that the tree was out. That's very
That's a very strange that actually that's a great news because now
Everything completely re-randomized so now. Yes, there's a chance that that legend there is aptos in sub
Meaning it's own Pokemon
So yeah, so that's aptos does 30 damage without weakness or resistance to a random Pokemon on either side of the battle
So it was very very bad luck that it hit our Pokemon both times
even after we moved to the RNG around using energy search, so our last case scenario was to
evolve to Doug Trio so that even if the RNG hit again, we would still have 48p remaining,
but for whatever reason evolving to Doug Trio made the AI not play, that's aphos, at least
right away. So also a clever move there, playing that defender, saved Doug Trio from the
The only regular attack in the deck, one of the only two regular attacks in the deck that
can actually KO does trio.
Really?
I don't know.
I'll explain that in the top.
Oh, there's another one.
Oh, my God.
Okay.
What options you got?
I don't find it.
Sorry, I'm thinking.
Okay.
We can play the Diglin.
I'm going to play the Diglin first.
That is option one.
Yes.
Well, then see what happens here.
Perfect.
All right.
There we go.
Perfect.
All right.
G, fun facts.
Zaptos first rolls the RNG to decide which side of the field to attack with that power.
And then it picks a position on the field.
So first it's guaranteed.
So once it hits your side, it's guaranteed to hit something on your side with that RNG value.
But you can put things on the bench to decrease the chances of your active Pokemon being the one that's
So we played a sacrificial diglet there to make sure our champion Doug Trio stays alive.
I'm very quick on your feet thinking that allows us to save this battle.
Could have been a several minute time loss if we weren't for that.
Yeah, no, this is one again.
One of those things.
And believe it or not, have that diglets read not work.
We actually had that.
I actually had a second way to get my total out of a jam because of a
that maintenance card.
I had that mine company that I a second ago.
Oh, this is okay, so let me let it all out.
This is the hardest fight in the game.
It's not even close.
Yeah, that's it.
This is bifur in absurdly difficult fight.
Jack has everything you could possibly hate as a speedrunner of this game.
You want status effects, you've got like 20 million of them.
You want high damage, dealing Pokemon.
Oh, hey, we can do, we can do lapers.
We can do several points of articuno
and do gone.
So, and also, it has damaged sponges.
Is it going?
Yeah, yeah, chansey and look like.
Okay.
So this becomes very, very challenging
because these 128P, like our 98P normal types
for damage, spundering damage, like chansey,
that incentivizes you to pick a fighting type Pokemon
to beat those quickly, but all of these water types
that if given room to set up will do 50 plus damage
in one turn, that incentivizes you to pick like a lightning type.
And so what do you do?
Or a general attacker that can do anything.
So what do you do?
In this case, given the cards that Voronite has received,
the Dr. Trio is probably the way to go,
but there's a lot of different battle outcomes
that could work against Voronite here.
So we kind of need to wait for the perfect situation
or try to force it by using trainer cards at the right time.
Looks like that pokeball did get head.
So we are able to retrieve the Wanda Trio we have,
which is super important.
He's debating on once he used a full heal here
because it could KO the Ditto and he does.
An automated roll to get that full heal back later.
So that could potentially be really important.
The only downside with Doug Trio against these legendary birds with 100 HP is it is a three hit
KO with the earthquake attack instead of potential 2 of KO with something like Articuno's
attack.
But ultimately that tradeoff is worth it to be able to one hit KO the damage sponge
is because they can stall for so much time that in a speed run it's really important to,
you know, if you want to lose, if you're going to lose you want to lose quickly, you
don't want to win a slow fight in a speed run.
You want to either lose quickly or win quickly.
And so the trio definitely is kind of the all-in move
for this fight.
Oh, do I get to go?
Oh, but the trio's fully powered up.
And oh, that too long.
That's the guy.
Two gone gets three energy and evolves.
It can do 50 at once.
The luckily tornado had an energy removal
in hand that he's able to go back in time and use.
So now, seal won't even bother to evolve,
which is very good news.
allows the one-hit KO here and now we get a bit of a breather in the who-and-o-rod is definitely
the easiest of the four and the main reason for that is that rods Pokemon are very powerful
but they all require evolving and you know being a speedrunner, being a speed based deck
We're trying to do a lot of damage really quickly.
So Rod just doesn't have time to get his deck functional.
So while it can go, you know, it's not guaranteed to be like a 30 second fight or anything like that.
Things can still go wrong.
It's a bit lower stakes.
It can be a little room to breathe when you're preparing for the final fight of the game Ronald.
Okay.
Ah, this is...
Okay, no, I think I know how to...
This is a really dicey situation.
I think I know how I want to play this.
Okay, I think yeah, I know how I want to.
I definitely know how I want to play this.
Oh, actually this actually works out perfectly.
Yeah, I think you're all right now.
Yeah, there's certain edge cases where Charmallium can appear
and be attacked on my turn to a play that can be really lethal
for Diglet and Torna is trying to kind of be mindful
I'm always dead that's just when an energy removal
takes normal that doesn't happen.
Rick, Rick, there we go.
Okay.
Nice.
I was actually in a really bad spot
believe it or not, uh, Oklahoma, second.
Yeah.
Yeah, I think you're safe now.
Or now.
But can you get some of the ability to add
more Pokemon to the deck, so I'm going.
Yes, so, okay, just bank on just getting another
Oh
Two chances that at least one of them is gonna be heads right one of them right right now, oh
Well, we tried
Oh, it didn't matter either we've done anyone they didn't matter level eight diglin one lovely dig lead took out this game's version of lands
Yep, it's
Levels are truly wild in this game levels are in some you be in the least or that means you won right now
Oh, no, there's one more battle.
This is for you.
You can see this moment.
Yes, it's Ronald.
And this time we're not allowed to lose.
Oh, beautiful.
This is about as good an opening hand as I could ask for if I'm actually being
serious.
Oh, yes.
And you got the multtrace starts.
So Ronald has one of each of the legendary birds.
And you feel remember what I said about Jim leaders cheating,
where they rigged the top of their deck.
Multtrace is on playability that searches for energy cards,
also shuffles the deck.
So Ronald undid his own cheating.
So it's actually a very strong start for Toronite here.
In addition, Toronite's hand has all the cards he needs, basically.
Um, there's a little dice here.
I'm going to, I'm thinking I'm going to need.
I am going to definitely need some lucky.
I actually know, I'll wait no, no, no, no, no.
I forgot.
No, you'll be in care of range after this.
So I think you're, I think you're okay.
Yeah, yeah, never mind.
I forgot.
Ronald does not know how to build a deck.
Okay.
Quizz time.
Quizz time.
Quizz time, everybody.
know how we need energy corresponding in those instances with the Pokemon's type.
You know, actually play the game and actually be able to attack.
Multress, okay, you got the fire energy.
That makes sense, okay.
You got that those lightning energy.
You know, they can do a lot of damage.
Or do you know, can do a fix 40 to ran the Pokemon on the opponent's bench.
The knees water energy.
You're probably along, right?
Guess what he doesn't have.
Water and lightning energy.
He has nothing.
This is the worst.
It's an all-fire energy deck with has, which has like four Pokemon wasted on attacks they literally can't use.
Now I know people like to say, oh well, and you know, lands is the worst champion of all time.
Or they like to say, oh, you know, I didn't like that.
I end those so much in X and White.
No, Ronald is the worst Pokemon champion of all time.
And in fact, so much so that we spent this entire explanation,
Kind of talking down just a little bit on it.
That would be the only video game that we just won.
A time it's going to come up in about 45 seconds.
Yep, yeah, I got to skip through a few cutscenes, but that is the last battle of the game.
You've been presented with the legendary Pokemon cards and after a quick cutscene to
receive these legendary Pokemon cards, once the screen flashes to white from the
overworld that will be time coming up at about 15 seconds it's even better
that's the final boss doesn't know how to make a Pokemon. Yeah no I did
yet because why not? It's why not? Time coming up in three two one time time
two jeans oh my god what that what was the time on that one stream will catch
up in a little bit, but somewhere around just over an hour. Wow, that is no, that is
a phenomenal run. The nominal phenomenal run. Most runs like your average
argument run can go anywhere from my high one or X to all the way to an hour, 20,
if you're not careful or if you're not experiencing this category. Thankfully, I have,
By the way, this is kind of like a little bit of a historic run.
This is the fastest or the more run in a marathon setting ever.
That is true, but it's also the second one.
It's actually the third one.
I actually did one two years ago.
Then not go super well.
Last time I did it was last October.
And obviously it's, we have a little bit of time.
I actually want to kind of share a little bit of the story
of how we actually got to this point.
Our wonderful host, and we were talking a little bit.
Actually, we met up a few weeks back before GDQ,
talking about the Mara really and everything,
because I am the greatest raccoon TikToks clock star
of all time.
That's, you know, check the tape.
But before, but we were talking,
and I had suggested the idea of like hard mode
actually being a thing,
and Pokemon TTT, hard mode is the thing.
I never would have suggested that in a million years,
had it not been for one specific person,
and I wanna get Rashad Al-Saint,
Concerning the dedicate this run to Alara.
Alara heads is a wonderful member of this speed running community.
She does not play Pokemon TTT whatsoever,
but she is a big fan of like,
very obscure, very niche, challenging types of speedruns.
And back in the summer, she, we were talking,
we were in Pittsburgh, we were talking.
And she, and all of a sudden, I don't know the blue.
He said, tell me about this hard mode.
You got in TCG.
And she convinced me, I don't know how,
she convinced me to submit this for an in-person event
at the Pittsburgh Gaming Expo.
So shout-out to Silver City Speedsters
or guys in that event
if we're giving me the chance to showcase that run.
That run, I have said time and time again
since then, last October.
As far as like the overall
what makes a marathon run so entertaining,
I consider that my magnum opus.
That was one of the greatest marathon runs
I've ever done in probably will ever do
an entire life and it's given me the confidence
to be able to showcase this game here on GDQ
And the fact that this beat that run by almost 10 minutes,
it's honestly astonishing.
And I could not have done it,
where if it wasn't for a lot of convinced me,
over six months ago,
which the butterfly effect is arriving to here today.
And I'm very, very gracious and thankful.
Now, just for you, for letting me be on your show.
But the entire Pokemon TCG speedrunning community,
it was the first game I ever learned how to speedrun.
It was the, it was what got me hooked into speedrunning in the first place.
I tried learning other games, but it was this game that gave me the opportunity to do a lot of really cool things
in Pokemon TCG and speedrunning in general.
I would not be where I am today, if it were not for this game.
I have met many wonderful people with this game,
Pinecomb being one of the many people to do so.
I've been able to travel and there's so many different places.
And all of that started with this game.
I cannot think this game enough and for speed running,
for giving me the opportunity to kind of put us all where we are
at today.
And I am very, very happy to be able to be here.
And I just can't say enough great words about this game.
I can't say enough great words about the entire speed running.
Hoppy, with all the people who are a part of this,
I am so, so thankful to have been to,
it more ways than one this game has in rich my life
to an unbelievable degree.
And this run, it's just further proof of that.
We just wanna thank everybody who basically got me to where I am today.
I know we did, we are a little bit on the estimate, um, um, if it's all right, I would like to showcase one or two things that
I'm going to actually kind of discovered literally minutes before we went live.
Um, yeah, let's do that.
And if you don't have chat open, Olarah is here with us, and there's a cutie at the end of the name.
So hello, hello, cutie.
I'm a polar.
Welcome.
Thank you.
Alara, again, you are an absolute rock star, and I am so thankful to have met you.
No, it's going to require us to rewind all the way back over an hour ago.
And that is to, why am I on wait?
This is the proper safe.
There we go.
That's where I wanted.
I'm just curious.
So let's, okay, let's set the table.
This is the same safe state that I started this entire run with.
Nothing, nothing, I mean, you see cards, but zero, zero, zero, you see nothing.
Yeah, I have no cards.
The safe state starts with no cards, and so you don't have a deck.
So, or you shouldn't have a deck, right?
I shouldn't have a deck.
I really shouldn't.
Now, let me show you what is supposed to happen when we actually start a duel.
Well, what is supposed to happen is we actually are supposed to be shuffling infinitely.
Yeah, because you have nothing to shuffles, so the game just kind of softlocks, right?
But it looks like we found a new glitch and we're going to have to figure out what this
means in a little bit.
Yeah, same crafting glitch has more than a ways than one.
We have this.
Hey, brand new Pokemon card named after Toro.
I, you know, this was an invented on the spot right now.
Listen, I'm just saying Nintendo kind of looked at that red
red coin and TikTok log.
Saw that I run this game.
Saw this absolute bankrupt one getting in the hour 15 minutes
under estimate and they did a live patch of the game.
By the way, again, let me point out.
I'm sure that this is a completely illegitimate.
There's a not a modest switch and no way she'd perform.
I'm in the game.
I'm in the game, everybody.
So let's kind of see I'm both I'm both simultaneously a trainer card and an energy card at the same time
This is a very weird glitch. Lots of strange things happen when Pokemon trading card game on at the like
At the memory level. This is a game that does have an ace glitch. It has save corruptions
Which is how we enabled this run and one of the other quirks is that if it doesn't know what if the game doesn't know what a card should be
It just decides to grasp energy.
So we normally see that if a trader card fails,
but in this case we're seeing it when they're...
I forgot to...
A new card being invented.
I forgot too much. Okay, are we gonna get the glitch?
Yeah, look at the text.
That is being put out. Look at the text.
Attach.
Anybody that...
Somebody that reads Japanese, please tell me what it actually is attaching to crappy.
It looks like it's one letter over and over again.
It's a patching like, or something.
So yeah, we're going stuff, we'll have to take a look for it.
So we're going to end this officially with showing off,
normally in Marathon settings,
and I've done this at Judy Gohafx appearance in the past.
Art mode starts the game path of the tutorial.
So typically, I didn't get a chance to show this off earlier,
but it doesn't want to make fair things.
I want to pull things you can do.
If you're ever stuck in a battle,
all you gotta do is just select, down a,
and by pressing B and then A and down at the same time,
you automatically win the duel
and you can just go on your merry way.
You can literally do this for any fight
in the entire game,
and you can beat the game,
that's how you beat the game in like 15, 20 minutes.
Yeah, the reason that these runs are quote unquote glitchless
even though they start with glitches
because there is a glitch to simply win the battle.
and so being able to press a certain button command on a certain screen to cause two things
to happen at once, causes this little dual escape crash, which the crash results in going
back to the older world and the game is just like, oh, you won't, so fun little thing to show
off when you get a minute like this. Yeah, yeah, I think Pokemon 3D G speed running is going to
have a very interesting 2026. So if you are ever curious about wanting to learn this game,
we are always welcoming of new people. We have our own discord server for that. If you go to
speedrun.com and you click on the game, we have a little button that'll take you to our
discord server. We are always welcome for people joining in and just real quick shout out
if you like what you see. I'm not only run this game or run a bunch of the different games
like I said earlier. I'm in the middle of a challenge stream series where I'm going where I'm
beating this game with decks that I have discovered through magazine games, games, games, and
game guides from 25 years ago, and I'm going to try and beat the game with every single one of
them. So far, two decks down, both of them actually were successful to my surprise.
All right, I've heard of something similar done with Dark Souls, using like IGN and game
back skyds so like that's certainly an interesting dynamic.
All right, well I know we've been doing shoutouts for like 15 minutes now.
Any last words before we head out.
You're all awesome and thank you so much for watching.
You're all beautiful people.
Well, that's very, thank you.
Thank you very much.
Hosting the trading card game.
Torna, it's been a great member of the community and representative public face for this game.
as mentioned, feel free to reach out on the discord if you have any interest. If anyone has
any interest in running the game, check out either of our streams if you want to see speedrunners
run the game in a non-marathon setting and otherwise. Yeah, thanks everybody.
Awesome. Well, thank you both so much for showcasing that. If you want to do some final shoutouts
myself before we call the end of the show. So first off, once I thank you to everyone who has been here
today, that's Chris Sorris with a person, card of the heart, tour, night and pine cone. Thank you so
So much for the five of you.
Thank you to my wonderful producer Richard with joining us here on 8 Thursday.
We will be back here this past at our normally scheduled Monday night shows, more at least
until present day.
So one more Monday and another Thursday, 7 to 10 PM Eastern.
And thank you all so much in the audience for showing out.
I wasn't sure how well Pokemon and puzzles and things would do.
We love keywords here.
So thank you all so much for being here.
This will definitely not be the last time we've featured Pokemon.
After all of you came out and definitely hung out with us, shared your e-most,
shared your energy, it's been a great night.
Don't go anywhere.
We still have the scenic route coming right up after this with Osmoren's going to be doing
some Minecraft.
So one last time Pikachu wake goodbye to the audience.
We'll see you all in in a couple of weeks.
Bye-bye.
I'm not going to get you out of the way, I'm not going to get you out of the way, I'm not going to get you out of the way.
Thank you.
You

Here we are with a very special episode of the scenic arts and I for those of you who
are just tuning in for the first time to this show.
The scenic route is a show, all about in glitchless and no matter if you're glitches,
or runs, it just naturally have a little to know glitches in them.
And so if you were interested in that kind of content, again, we are here normally Mondays at 10pm.
But we are moved to Thursday here because of the holiday that happened on Monday.
And so with that being said, I'm very excited for this episode.
It's all one run the entire episode.
It's a race as a matter of fact.
My incorrect all advancement between the second and fourth place holders, and so it's going to be very, very tight breaks, like my Utah.
With that being said, I'm going to hand it over to Doi Pingu and Oxidiot for an amazing race of my correct all advancements, and I hope you all enjoy it for the rest of the night.
Take it away on.
Hello, oh my goodness.
I'm so excited to be here. I'm Dessa Fulder, one of the commentators tonight joined by Pack and obviously,
I'm so excited to be watching these two runners face off,
doping you, oxidative, two of my top 30 favorite all
events and runners. It's so nice to be here. How are you to do?
I'm so mean.
I'm very glad I'm like 29 or like what's up.
You're like you're in the top 30. I don't it's unordered.
Okay, it's unordered. It's not what you need to know. You're both in there,
but it's it's you know, I don't want to I don't want to pick favorites, you know,
I don't know.
Uh, got it.
Anyways, the other commentator with me is
Pac-Man and we see Pac-Man do you want to introduce what the players are doing tonight?
Hi, my name is Pac, and the players are going to
be getting 80 advancements in less than 3 hours, hopefully.
They're already loaded into the sea.
I bet they're just waiting to go.
This is their plan, the same sea
and we do have some randomness control,
but they mod that is going to be happening.
But if we're good to go, I think we're good to go.
You are good to go.
You give us a countdown whenever you are ready.
All right.
Three, two, one, go.
Good luck and have fun, all right.
So all A runs are going to start in basically the exact same way,
which is that we're going to be looking for a desert with a desert temple. The main
method of transportation throughout the spedons can be using a lighter and rockets.
It's just the fastest, most consistent way to move around the world and to make rockets
we need the gunpowder from the temple. There's a lot of other stuff that's very useful
in the temple. I'll talk about each of them as they come up. I will say 80 advancements
is I don't know if it's less or more than when I thought the advance was in this game was,
but I don't know why there's been time right to me, but it sounds like a lot.
It's getting three hours, so you can see that much.
It's a weird number because you have this feeling when you're playing all advancements,
like especially early on, you're kind of like, hey, I've got like 30, 40 advancements.
I'm doing really well, but like some of the advancements are insanely easy, and a lot of them are
really hard, which is similar to a lot of games, but like it's not really a linear thing,
So the number is kind of almost irrelevant to the category, I would say.
Yeah, that's true. A lot of the progress in the run is doing multiple things at the same time.
Like you're looking for multiple things at the same time and you'll get, obviously, the beginning of the game
is going to have bursts of of advancements just because there's some very simple ones.
But as you get into them, again, you're going to have bursts of advancements.
You're going to see a couple of them pop up and then you're not going to see anything for like 10 minutes.
maybe. No, not in the ass. So as we look at the sample, I see we have an enchanted golden apple.
I knew that was there, but I have the active excited anyways. Oh my goodness, it's an old enchanted golden apple.
That's so cool. You feel that's awesome. Yeah, so enchanted golden apple is a,
what do they say on the show? It's like a surprise tool that will help us later. Is that?
Yeah, it's a surprise tool that will help us. A Mickey Mouse cool.
What would you owe?
Yes, exactly.
We've also got Iron and Diamonds.
So we're gonna be able to make a diamond pickaxe, hopefully,
or they can do whatever they want.
The only diamond hook if they want.
I'm gonna try them for us.
I'm gonna try them for sure.
Yeah, just a diamond pickaxe.
And then we've got some iron for buckets.
Oh, why are we hurting a little?
Oh, no!
No, no, no, no!
It's all right.
He's going to a better place.
It's actually a natural arm.
Because kill this iron golem.
But one of the advancements is to create an iron golem.
So it'll all cancel through.
Oh, it's minus one.
It's a plus one later.
You're going to take a lot of to get what I got it.
I got it.
Oxi's a little bit.
Yeah, sorry.
You got a full minute.
Did you get three in?
No, I think I got more.
because I don't know why you know that's.
You both buy our taxes.
Oh, go.
Anyway, go on.
I think it's probably a good point
time to mention that while these players
are both playing seeds that we provided them,
they don't know what's in the seed.
So even though the gameplay looks really smooth and clean,
like they know exactly what they're doing,
like they've already done this before,
this is a completely random seed
from the runner's perspective right now.
They have no idea other than fact that like,
you can't see by the way.
She messed up her portal, the instant you said,
I was looking at joyp in you screen, I think.
So I take no blame for that one.
But yeah, even though these players look like they're doing
everything according to a script,
it's just that generally speaking,
you do the same kind of thing,
you're really game-made,
but this is a completely new seed
at something that these players have never seen before.
So it's just really impressive.
It's kind of like a testament to how good these players are
that they're able to play this early game so cleanly.
You really got their definitely going to play this early game.
How similar do you expect the raft to be between these two on each for me?
That's what it's right.
Awesome question.
And we were talking about this.
We don't know what would make the most interesting is.
In my opinion, I hope that they fly the exact same direction at every point in the midgame.
And then it'll be like there on each other's tails.
But I don't know if that's going to happen.
It's I think it's unlikely.
They might stick on the same line for the beginning of the midgame.
And when we say them again, we'll talk about it again when it starts.
But that's when we're back in the overworld with our light chart.
We'll restart flying.
Yeah.
It's weird to use from my perspective to refer to it as like mid-game and game.
Only because you know, Minecraft doesn't have that sort of linear progression in those games have.
Yeah, I guess it's folder.
Let's talk about what the, let's talk about the breakdown of the three parts of the run.
Yeah, so I think something that's really interesting about all advancements
is that I was about to say I'm like other speedrun categories, but I don't really know that.
So just forget that I was saying anything there.
Unlike what you might expect, a lot of announcements really requires you to do multiple
speedruns in the same speedrun, but you have to be good at the any percent speedrun of
my craft where you kill the dragon as fast as possible in order to be good at A.A.A.A.A.
You can't be good at A.A.A without also being good at any percent.
But then beyond that, you still have to do all of this other stuff for the run.
So, of course, the early game is demarcated by this any percent split.
We have to go kill the dragon.
We have to go get in the light truck and the outer end.
You don't do that 90% you just go through the fountain and you run hands.
But we have to go get a bunch of loop from the outer end.
And then we're going to be doing a couple more things.
And then we're going to start the mid game, packed.
You want to talk about the mid game?
The mid game is the me and potatoes.
It's the entire life of the run.
It's where all the interesting parts happen.
This stuff, this bastion stuff, you know, you've got any percent.
Everyone's seen this before, right?
You've won the YouTube video, you've seen, you know, XYZ, do there.
I got a sub-15 in Minecraft sort of video maybe.
The big game is where we're going to be working towards,
there's, what is it?
Five big advancements.
You've got adventuring time, which is finding all the biomes.
You've got two bites, two, which is breeding all the mobs.
monster hunter, which is killing all the hostile mobs, and you've got balanced diet, which is eating
all the food, and then you've got a complete catalog, which is tame in all the cats. Those are the
big ones that you're focused on. Those are the multi-part advancements you can call them,
because all of them have several criteria that you have to meet. I guess this is, there's also a lot of
Oh, it's going on to the right now.
Yeah, yeah.
Actually, we said we could just skip over this basket.
Yeah, this is a housing bastion.
There's four bastion types.
This one's a housing, you can tell that it's a housing
because it's a housing because it's a housing.
I don't really know that.
You can tell that the housing is a studded.
Yeah, exactly.
Yeah.
All the bastions are really good.
My favorite bastion is treasure, but I know every AA player
hates treasure.
And I know you're going to give us a treasure.
Yeah, see, but I decided to be nice.
So there was nice news.
And you narrowly avoids death to that gas,
lowering his render distance to unload the gas,
so it couldn't shoot him anymore.
Almost shot him off the ground from the second time
and killed him.
So great job to be talking to you
on surviving that some of the stressful moment
while we were yapping like crazy and calm.
He's in panic.
I was scared, man.
I was like, did we implement the grease
up on the dispersion of the mod?
I said, did you get a 20?
No, I haven't picked it.
No, I just didn't pick it up.
Yeah, so both of our players were looking really sad.
I guess if you haven't watched a lot of Minecraft speedruns,
you don't really know what that means,
but we were watching both of these players
and they're kind of looking around in the bastion,
looking kind of confused, not really moving super fast,
like you would expect in the speedrun.
That's because neither of them got 20 obsidian from the bastion.
I can you want to explain what that means.
Yeah, sure.
So Obsidian is used to leave and enter the other dimension.
Obviously, you can make another portal using 10 Obsidian.
But the reason that you would want 20 is if you have 20,
you can build one portal wherever you want to to leave.
And we're going to be doing that right at the spawner.
And then we're going to go to the overworld and throw an eye
vendor.
And then we're going to figure out where the struggle is located.
We're going to go back into the other and use the remaining 10 Obsidian.
to go directly to where the stronghold is.
The reason you want to do this in that another,
is because the another is on a scale of eight to one
with the overall.
So any means of travel is eight times faster in the another.
A distance of 800 blocks becomes only a hundred blocks.
Yeah.
So that's the reason you want to really well
with your resources because not only is it eight times closer,
you use eight times fewer, eight, one eighth,
you use one eighth of the resources to get some more
And when it comes to pearls, which you can use
a teleporter pretty significantly in distance,
and food, what you need to recover your health after use
a pearl, that's really important,
because you only have so many pearls.
You don't want to use eight times in your pearl,
so that would be extremely slow.
So normally, it would be slightly problematic,
if you'd only had, I think you as a 15 or 16 of a city.
However, I was so nice to the runners,
and it gave them a diamond pickaxe,
which means we can watch them sit here
and blind obsidian for a minute.
Instead, beautiful.
Yeah, which is the fantastic time to read our donations if that's a thing or do you think now we don't have any donations here on GDU on Facebook, but of course, we do have some of the things that we like to tell people during the show and one thing that I can definitely say is we are having one of those special coming up soon called games done blindfolded things you can be run blindfolded GDU clock fix as a most thing a special games done blindfolded showcase value age 21 22
second, exhibitions are now open, want to take part.
I'll explain to you the point G, D, B, in chat for more details.
And while we're here, I do want to just say one thing about this one, and ask this question.
And that is, we have established that while this is random CD glitch list, the CD is of course
better here by the commentators.
The runners do not know what in the CD of course for the safety of a American type
when we didn't, of course we can't just have a random sea
that could possibly not be finishing the necessary hours.
But you also mentioned that the run is
a plan on a mother's own kind.
Could you speak on that a little bit?
Of course.
So, folder and I have been developing the smart
for tournament purposes, but it works just fine
for our own geostanditization.
Do main things they're lingering at, but yeah.
OK, well, I wasn't going to bring that up, but yes.
And the reason a little bit of work
matters is because although there is seed dependent RNG, for example, when you load up the same seed
you're going to get the same structures and the same loot in the structures, things like blaze
or just dropping blaze rods is still completely separate. And we wouldn't want Pingu for example
to get seven rods from seven blazes and oxy to get zero rods from seven blazes. So the mod just
makes it so that that orange is also dependent on the seat itself. So they're going to have the
same and that's going to be the same for their borders. It's going to be the same for blazerites.
It's going to be the same for basically any orange resource that I slash folder thoughts would be
necessary. And I think we've covered our bases pretty well. Yeah. And it's it's quite necessary
Because you might hear that as somebody who's not super familiar with a lot of vansons and be like, oh, like what's the big deal?
You can just play the pastor or make up the time for it
but
All advancements is notorious for being an extremely random category. Obviously, there's a lot of skill involved
But there's also a lot of luck. You need to be skilled in order to play the category consistently
So that you can get lucky and
There's I mean in theory it could take you an infinite amount of time if you got a lucky enough to complete the ride
Yeah, so many different RNG checks within all the Madsons run.
You could go three for three on whether there's Shelton Skulls and you're out in the span of what, like,
10, 20, 30 seconds or you could go what?
We've seen people go zero for like 300 on whether Shelton Skulls and Sols, which is, you know,
the span of like dozens of minutes.
That's not a good time differential for these two players.
Realistically, that's probably wouldn't happen, but it's just going to be way, way cleaner and easier to,
But all of what's going on, honestly,
if the players are getting the same RNG for different actions.
Then, I'm excited.
I mean, I mean, that's good to have that sort of standardization.
It's definitely going to be a better view of experience
and a runner experience, I imagine when it comes to the second.
What are the other things you say if you were experienced?
Yeah, one of the most volatile parts of AA is Thunder.
You need Thunder to be able to finish a run.
And it's completely random.
There's nothing you can do about it.
And if you don't get it to thunder, you can't finish the run. There's one advancement. Very very frightening where you need it to be
Thundering and if it isn't thundering, you just can't get the advancement out. There is a hole. Oh my goodness Lord
Can you you are so good?
I'm sorry, Pag. You're watching that, right? Where we all want to get a vote. It was a beautiful zero cycle. That was a one and a two plus two zero cycle
Oh my goodness, thank goodness this isn't horse because, you know, I'm not oxy's a fantastic player,
but any player of my crush you don't even would kind of struggle to match that. That was wild.
I did just spoil a small aspect of the zero for oxy, but that's okay.
If you know, I was kind of thinking about this idea before that like the information that we
give to the runners might, you know, like theoretically we could spoil information for one runner
nervous. Yeah, but you would only ever spoil something for the person that's behind
any. It's like a rubber banding effect, right? Like a warrior car. It's like a rubber banding.
So it's it's fine. And epoxy gets a five bad zero cycle, which also not what is
impressive. It's fine. It's fine. It's fine. Trust me. It's fine. They we've got a
beautiful outer end here. courtesy of someone that's really good at seed finding.
It's me out here talking about yourself, oh my gosh.
So this is when you get to the Outer End, of course, like we said, the
Light Tras, the main method of transportation, the way to get the Light Tras is in
an end city ship.
So not only do you get an end city, you need to get one that also has a ship.
Here we've gotten a seed that has very, very close ships.
So we're going to get here and maybe just a minute from entering the Outer End.
And then we're going to be flying around.
Just one alitra isn't going to cut it, unfortunately.
The difference here in alitra is it's one second of flight time per wonderability, so
I think you get seven and a half minutes of flight on enchanted up to about 28 minutes with
unbreaking three, which they do both have an unbreaking three book.
So we're going to look to get about three light shows is good for a three-hour run,
is what they're going to look for.
And this ship over here that's cut off.
That's a generation of quirk.
I won't get into it, even though I would love to.
But the reason it matters is there is no a light-traum on that ship.
It's a very rare occurrence, probably about one in a thousand-to-per-ship.
But it means there's no a lot to that.
So that ship does not have to most important item
for it to have.
What else is it looking for in the city of Fuller?
Yeah, so speaking of the city and speaking of R&G
stands as standardization, goodness graciousness
is quite the word like you were talking about earlier.
Something else is standardized here
that we've standardized in the mod
that normally wouldn't be standard, goodness graciousness
of sort of really five times.
are the shells that we're getting from these little blocks
guys called shalkers.
So shalkershells are very, very useful
because if you have two shalkershells and a chest,
you can make a shalker box,
which is essentially an extension to your inventory.
Now really, it's a chest that you can place down
and pick up, essentially.
Basically, all of the Anson's players play with two
shalker boxes.
That means that we need to get four shalkershells.
I really struggle to do that on the half of my head,
flallon.
I mean, it's good times for your skills.
Let's not worry about it, okay?
We already talked about the two plus two earlier.
It's fantastic.
But yeah, the shell drops are standardized,
so it's a 50% chance,
but each of these players has to kill the exact same number
of shockers to get for shockers shots.
Once we got that and our loop,
we're gonna be good to get out of here.
We're mostly looking for a full set of diamond armor,
ideally, we'll get in chance if we can,
but like we're not looking for specific and chance on armor.
Well, I mean, we are, we're taking tools
armor that have in chance that we want, of course, but we don't require that I'm getting out of here
because we're going to go to the enchanting spot pretty soon, which we'll talk about when we get there.
Oh yeah, we're just going to get through the diverses.
They mentioned in chance on armor. Let's go, let's go through some
enchants that are very helpful in the all advancements category. There are three
enchants that are actual hard requirements for the run. Those are one channeling that you need for
for a very, very frightening.
It allows you to summon thunder while it is thunder.
One is piercing, which we will need
for two advancements later.
Piercing goes on the crossbow.
Let's see how multiple moms within the arrow.
And then the third required is silk touch,
which is needed to pick up beehives.
But there's a lot of inch-hands that are just very nice to have.
Looting is a big one, looting on your sword
gets more mob drops.
We're not changing the run without looting, that's for sure.
Yeah.
Looting is just because you say you're required.
And I was thinking like, oh, what are you going to say?
But then, yeah, those three are required
as in you literally cannot complete an all-vance
and so on without them.
There's a lot more that are kind of pseudo-required
in the sense that if you don't get them a lot of players,
we'll just reset.
Like you say, Looting is a good example.
In chance on your helmet, are usually not necessary,
so you can play with that aquafinity or respiration,
which help you do stuff underwater.
But you usually, you almost always want to get
dumps spider, which allows you to move faster underwater.
Obviously, moving faster is good and speedrun.
So it's pretty useful.
And it's also almost, for reasons I will explain later,
it's very useful towards the end of the run.
But yeah, tool and chance, though, I would say,
are almost more, well, you really need
the efficiency pick.
It's probably a big one.
Other than that, I'm interested in what
I'll talk to you during the actual fact right here.
Yeah, we were talking over this
shulker transport as we call it.
The biggest advancement of the run is called
How to Be Get Here, which is Get Every Effect.
One of the effects in the game is levitation,
which you get from shulkers.
To get this effect later,
we are going to bring a shulker to the overall.
We missed it with Oxet, I don't know if Pinky
have you done the transport yet?
Whoa.
Okay, so we'll be able to see it again with Pinky
in a moment.
But the way it works is we can push
or sugar in a boat.
We can fishing rod the boat.
And then by manipulating our render distance,
we can unload it in a special way
that we can then pull the rod back in from a super far distance.
And then the boat will go flying.
And we can move the sugar across hundreds of blocks
to a gateway.
And then the gateway is going to let us bring it to the end island.
And then we'll do another transport
to get it to the overworld.
Shulker transport is, I don't know,
is the coolest trick in a, maybe it is.
It's a, there's a lot of fun tricks in a,
to be fair, but Shulker transport
is definitely one of the more enjoyable ones to watch.
It's always fun to see somebody do it with no F3 too
because you just have no idea what's going on.
Yeah, but I think we here is setting up
or transport, we're gonna see, we're bridging out and then I'll just let you watch for a moment here.
Yeah, fishing rod, shoulder and boats, and we're gonna go in a short trip.
Does this hurt the shoulder? I'm like, you didn't need to do this line.
Does this hurt the shoulder? No.
It must be the sense to punch it. But if done properly, it should be harmless to our shoulder.
There is something called air-eat there, which is that you punch the shulker off before
flying away.
Friction is actually a mechanic in Minecraft.
You typically don't really think about it, but it is there.
And there's friction.
So when you pull a boat that's on a block, it has a certain amount of friction.
You lose approximately one-third.
It's one-third, right?
Something like that.
You lose a certain amount of your momentum that gets applied to the boat when you reel
it in.
If you punch it off beforehand and then you unload the boat,
so it's just gonna stay floating there
in the unloaded chunk, you're able to pull it
and it'll basically keep all of its momentum.
So it'll move a lot faster.
It'll move a lot farther, a lot faster
as just easier to manage in general.
It took us a couple of years to actually think about
every, I think, these are a lot of times
I think on the, on the hats, because I did have a run, I sugar went like lying.
I was like, oh wait, I remember that was actually, that's not bad.
It was, um, that's not bad.
There was an evil dark age for all events, since we're we would put the
shoker in a mine cart and mine carted to the overworld.
That, I mean, it's like building a roller coaster for, you know, it takes a long
long time to do that. Yeah, early all advancements runs. You set it like I'm going to
put me down for our marathons. So, yeah, there was so much. It's kind of fascinating because
you see an all advancements run now and playing 26 and you're like, oh, this all kind of looks
like it makes sense. Like, yeah, like you see a lot of strats that you're like, oh, I don't
fully understand what's going on there. But like, it looks like it makes sense or belongs in a speedrun.
But if you look at an older A speedrun, it's so confusing, because it's just a ridiculous,
it's so much slower, it's so much longer that it almost looks like a completely different category.
I feel like with any percent, any percent hasn't changed that much, right?
It's still like a lot of the bulk of the running, so recognize it,
but there's so much stuff that they're doing these old A speedruns that you just would never see any more.
hours of time loss trying to get a gasping overall to like,
goodness.
And now, Pingu is back in the overall and as you can see,
we have our shoulder in our boats in the overall.
We're going to leave him there. He's going to be just fine,
probably.
And we're going to come back to him in about two hours.
Oh, if you can see it's a prize pool that's in our
later.
Yes.
Yes.
This category is a lot of surprise pools.
That's not the right episode you obviously
You're one eleven
What my name is?
I'm crazy
Maybe I'm bad, I'm sorry
Thanks, eating this yogurt
It should be one choice
Is there one to one?
I get another name
Well, you're just gonna shun to me
I don't know what I say
Go on the other side
Okay, okay, that's my bad idea
I didn't know how that worked
Interesting
Yeah
This is where folders are gone
Didn't work
I see. But while we were doing that, Pinko has gotten
lapis. There was something there that also took a lot of math from a very
smart individual called Matthew Bowlin to be very lapis.
It's an interesting experiment in normative determinism that Matthew Bowlin
had a lot of interesting math techniques that improved my
My cross-beer line.
We got this guy on my way there.
Anyways, what about you, Bull and Discovered?
There's a good chance you might have seen a video of this for diamonds,
but the same thing applies for Lapis.
There's clay patches that you can see in a rifers.
And because of the way that Minecraft's internal random generator works,
It generates the lapis on a consistent,
on a decently consistent offset to where the clay gets generated.
So if you see a clay patch, you can go some number of blocks
in the positive c direction.
And then if you dig straight down, you will find lapis.
And this works most of the time.
Most of you have to give a lot of asterisess to most there.
But like, yeah, and it's, it's also one of those strategies where kind of as you get better at it, you can do it more reliably.
Because obviously there's a counting aspect, which is not like a, it's kind of a binary thing either you do it or you don't.
But you can also do other tricks like digging around like four blocks around if you don't get lost that kind of thing.
It can help you normalize out the strange situations that can occur with the strategy.
At this point, both of our players are in the overworld.
Thank you has finished in Shanson.
Noxidia is about to start.
This is a 26 minutes into the run.
I would say this is a very good pace for a run.
It's solid.
I think something that's interesting about it
is because, of course, these tires
haven't seen the seed before, compared to a set seed
speedrun of Minecraft all-mathens.
This is quite slow.
I think normally we're here like what 10 to 11 12 minutes in an SSU run and compared to like the runs that these players that were watching are resetting for in AARSG
This isn't even like this is obviously this is fast like it's world record pace, but it's also like it's not like super fast
Like it's not like like do I ping you would not be losing his mind right now. I think
It would be good, but
It's similar to the resistance.
The reason is that something to do with the D&N and thing with folder.
Something that rides with the...
I was trying to think of something on the lines with that sub folder by that.
And...
Boulder?
That sub folder?
Yeah.
All right.
Rest of the world.
You're so responsible.
I feel like that would push kill down the thunderous record.
So...
Right, let's talk about the thunderous record.
So I ping you here, proud owner of the two-hour and two-minute
thunder-less world record.
Underless is something I was talking about earlier
before one of our commentators
really cut me off.
What's your name?
I was saying that thunder is a very volatile thing in the run.
You have no control over it, it's fully random and you need it.
And it can never happen.
Like there is a chance that it just never happens.
obviously with our RNG mod, that is not the case, because that would be mean.
But the thunder list is, it's not a real category, but it is something that we as a community
keep track of, because it's basically just as much of a, it's very close to completion
and a thunder list run, which just means you didn't have some RNG elements.
So the two of the Thunderless record is by Pingu.
The actual World Record is only three minutes lower.
It's a 205.
That's by Fineburg.
Where was I going with this?
I'm not sure.
We're going to mention Thunder Standardization is Thunder Standardized.
I don't actually know.
This is not.
It is.
It is.
It is.
Don't get mad at me.
Relax.
This is the same as draft Thunder or is different.
It's.
And now I'm curious.
There will be a thunder, there will be a thunder at some kind of end of the run.
And it will be exciting.
And we'll consider this the wiping use like killing the entire ocean right now.
Okay.
Right.
So, fishkill.
This is what we call fishkill.
Fishkill is kind of the unofficial official start of what we were referring to earlier
the mid game.
One of the big advancements is, timing all the cats, a complete catalog, and it's a
team cats you need to fish.
And so before we start flying around to all of our temples and all of our villages, we're
going to stock up on fish so that we can tame the cats.
It's a one in three chance to tame per fish.
And there's 11 cat breeds.
But what Pingu here is a very lucky runner.
He got a black cat.
I don't know if Oxie will get the same black cat.
I don't know.
I don't know.
I don't know.
I don't know if Oxie has the same eyes.
Right?
Well, they are.
Some of them, yeah, the same to the edge.
I mean, I just never get the bear cats in this game.
I always forget all the different enemies
that we can tame at this point.
I like the place.
This is like so solemnly casually.
That's nice to learn about all these things right here.
Yeah, the black cat is a little interesting
because it can only spawn on one specific phase of the moon
or in swamp.
Swamp hunt still spawned there all the time
It'll guarantee almost all the time.
But unless there's a specific bug that is known to happen that if it happens,
we'll talk about it, but we don't need to worry about it.
Or they can spawn in villages if it is that phase of the moon.
And that phase of the moon happens to coincide with the first 20 minutes,
which are the first Indian Bay of the run.
So when you load into a world at zero minutes into the run,
your spawn village is what we call it.
That's the village that you, is that spawn?
You can show that in and one of those cats can be a black cat.
If that happens, that's nice because then you don't need to think about finding this one
put, but swampud is not like that's super weird if anything else.
Yeah.
And so both of these players are basically going to get roughly enough fish that they're
pretty confident that unless they get really unlucky, they'll be able to tame all of
11 Capriads.
And already starting the mid-game.
When any.
Don't worry about sure it's fine.
Pack wouldn't give you about our NGC.
But yeah, so something we were talking about earlier
that's kind of coming up now is we were starting the mid-game.
And something that's very well known about A is that
this is where runs start to diverge.
Up until this point, everything is basically proven theory.
Like you're not going to do something weird and wacky
up until this point.
Like sometimes like, yeah, there's certain situations
that call for certain backloads,
you do something later in the run, that kind of thing.
99% of the time you want your good run
to look exactly like this one
is looked like for these two runners up into this point.
You wanna do your early game,
you wanna get your early game,
you wanna get your early game, you wanna get your early game,
you wanna do your enchance, and then you wanna do your fish kill.
And fish kill is a time in the run
where everything diverges.
We have no idea what's gonna happen.
We don't know what directions runners are gonna go.
They but don't even necessarily know what direction they're gonna go.
They're gonna be looking at the seeds thinking, hey,
I think there's a good desert in the structure.
I'm gonna go check out this desert, try to get more temples,
try to get more gunpowder, something like fly further.
Maybe they're gonna see an ocean nearby and think,
hey, I need to go back to that ocean later.
Maybe the other one is gonna think,
hey, that ocean doesn't look very good.
I'm gonna look for what later we're on.
It's completely subjective.
Well, I mean, it's fairly subjective
as things can all be in speed runs.
You can definitely, definitely,
suppliers are much better at this.
We call it the routing of the seed.
Then others are, but it's a lot more fluid
and a lot more flexible than the routing up until it's point
which is still, of course, flexible because it's run and seed.
You've never played it before.
You don't know if you run to the left and the other,
do I run to the right and the other.
But those are much simpler decisions than what is going to go on
for the rest of this run, basically.
And it's very likely that we'll see these players,
locations, their plays, the order of advancements they have,
what they're doing, it's just, I verge quite a bit,
as we get deeper and deeper into the mid game.
I do appreciate your honor, who...
I do appreciate your honor, who's like,
when it comes to games with heavy RNG,
especially when it comes to seeding runs like this,
or just like Rob likes the ability to be able to site read a seed and to how to work
here favor is something that I absolutely admire and any sort of run. And part of the reason
why I don't speed run Rob likes to have your energy runs myself. But it's definitely a
translates to here. I was like, I think that that is, I mean the routing is the biggest skill
of the category. Doing each individual piece quickly of course is nice, but there's no
There's one advancement that's difficult. Everything else is pretty easy to do on its own.
The routing, as we we say, is the difficulty of the rock. Fingering out a good way to get to
all of the places that you need to go in an efficient manner and without backtracking. Backtracking
is like, what's the part of the movement of the conspence? Yeah, yeah, the part of the movement
Most things. Backtracking is, as it would sound, whenever you go back to somewhere where
you already were, because if you do that, you were doing two things. One, you are wasting
time flying back to something that you could have done before, and two, you are not loading
new chunks. Loading chunks is very important, because you want to see as much terrain as
you can, because you need to find the rare biomes.
We'll talk more about the rare biomes as they come up,
but as the name implies, they are rare.
They're not like planes and forests and desert
where you can see them everywhere.
Which are all as well.
They're in two as common biomes.
No one says that.
There isn't a common.
We could have spent some serious misinformation.
I'm having a hard time believing you when you say that.
It's common we were here in the second.
It's a little like like, it's fine, it's fine.
There is two uncommon biomes though.
That's true.
The deep frozen ocean in the warm ocean.
Hopefully that won't be a problem.
I mean, it's kind of ironic that we divide them into common,
uncommon rare biomes.
When in every all advancements completed run,
you get all of them.
And so they're kind of all on equal footing car.
Well, here's the thing.
And I know we talked about this in Oxi's first hot fix run,
but I want to say it again here.
There's a lot of astrosks on these so-called wall advancements,
because even though we have to guess all of the biomes,
there's a lot of biomes that you don't actually have to get.
Don't ask me.
I didn't make the game trust me.
You know, we're full that you don't have to get modified jungle edge, if you made it wrong, for sure, make the right amount of edge on the edge.
I don't think they removed that by I mean, so.
We've discussed this before, but it is kind of incredible how all these little like minor decisions in Minecraft, like if these little things were slightly off, this category would just be unplayable.
Like it's it's barely functional as it is, so if you would still play it up, it's just be running.
one way to put it.
It's a miracle that this run is so miracle that this run is just long enough.
I've been an episode of this show.
Yeah, honestly.
It's like two years ago, so.
Can we go back up of Pinky?
Yeah, just got a channeling book in this temple.
You're in a five.
Yeah, this temple at the court and that's negative one.
So you're trying your operation?
No, no, no. Okay, so channeling. I was talking about the survey
advancement for Thunder, called very, very frightening. It requires you to have a
trident enchanted with channeling and throw it a villager while it is
Thundering and then it will turn the villager into a witch and that's the
advancement. For this, you need three rare things to happen. One, you need a
of thunder. I've already talked about that unlikely. It doesn't happen a lot. Stupid RNG.
Two, you need to try it. If you look at oxy, we're flying through oceans. We're looking
for drowns, holding pointy sticks. We want the pointy stick. We need one. And then you need
channeling. Channelings are annoying because it's kind of rare and we don't have that many
levels to inscents it. Like oxy's down to 33 right now. So getting it is kind of inconsistent
And it's very annoying not to be able to get it.
So getting a book that just has channeling on it
is super, super nice.
Yeah.
And this is like one of those inflection points in the run
that we were kind of discussing the possibility of earlier.
We were talking about RNG.
And it's like, yes, a lot of the RNG is standardized.
And I mean, to be fair, this temple that has this channeling book exists for
oxidative, too.
It's in her seat somewhere.
But there's such a thing that's like, brain RNG.
It's not a skill issue.
It's just you go in a different direction.
and you hit different temples, that's the way it is.
And now it's possible, Oxie could lose a fair amount of time,
trying to get a channeling enchantment on or trying this well.
But hopefully she makes up the time in some other way.
I can't think of anything actually.
Maybe she finds something on the gaster.
I sure love it.
You're hoping for a new channel,
points on Oxie.
Yeah, actually.
What?
OK.
Yeah, both.
It's important to find a second.
Yeah, it's good.
That's unfortunate.
I'm a pusman.
I mean, you need you to cheer for a dope and gear.
Of course.
I will cheer for anyone in the saltide.
Of course.
That's so good.
Good.
No, I was going to say, here you all, say,
a week, three rare things to happen
or to get this advancement is, you maybe thought of this.
Like, are A runners okay?
Like, have me, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.
Not at all.
Oh, my goodness.
No, I would have eaten.
It's like the saltiest category ever.
I would love to see like in the lab so that these runners were, you see the amount of attempts they've had and the amount of attempts they've completed over these points.
Oh, it's like insane.
It's concerning.
You could fill a warm ocean with AA players' tears at this point.
Like, it's just, it's a struggle, this category.
Hello, Warden.
Let us see.
I was, let us see.
I just think it's like an all advancements like, come on.
That was the thought that.
That was okay.
Okay.
Our tears warm when you like start crying.
I don't know if you think I've been like, yeah.
Well, they're warm once they fall into the ocean.
I mean, that's just how it works, right?
It's a much larger body of water, so.
Something I want to point out right now.
We're feeling a boy who is doing it.
So, JoyPing, we already mentioned that JoyPing is the Thunderless World Record holder.
It has been for some amount of time now. I don't actually remember what happened.
Oh, but I was in the last year though.
What did you start with, eh?
Oh, hey.
Okay.
Are you betrayed that I don't remember the date of your thunderless World Record?
I just put a, you say, it's so long on it, I'm not gonna do it.
I'm just like, you're like, you're like, you're like, you're like, you're like, you're like, okay, so,
like, within the last 12 months, JoyPing, you got the all-advanced-based Thunderless World Record.
very impressive time. Now, you as a viewer, of course, don't know,
do I ping you? I mean, maybe you do. I don't like, I'm, I'm not you. I
sound. But something that joyping you is quite known for within the
All-Advanced Community is being a very innovative player. This is
not always rewarded in all advancements. In fact, it's
frequently not rewarded all advancements. These little time saves,
if like a quarter second here, a quarter second there,
don't really sum up to like beating these massive time saves of being able to play
the game for like 14 hours a day and got a better seat.
Not saying that like this is a super orange category or anything, but like this is kind of the way it is.
Now the thing is, is that drooping it was very well known for these little times things.
So he'll do like crazy things.
His bulls eye advancements, he'll use TNT, he'll use like, you know, the ice thing on your boots.
I don't know.
Now we're on tour.
I was walking.
I've gotten and trapped or set up, but yeah.
I don't know who knows.
We'll see.
Yeah.
He's well known for his temple strategies. I forget the name, but they're like really cool and yeah
So lots and lots of stuff and something don't worry about it
So I think it's something I wanted to point out is that for a while now
Doi Pingu has had his pearls on his hot bar
So when you come out of the end you usually have some amount of pearls that you used to get it two-year-old light
Try that you're going to have some leftover
So, you're going to have to go to the ender pearls, and at that point in the run, you're typically not at a point where you've killed an ender might get. So an ender might as a mob that spawns one in 20 times when you throw an ender pearl. So it's got a 5% chance of spawning, whenever you throw an ender pearl.
And ender pearls are kind of annoying to get in the mid game of an all-advanced speed. They're just like, you're not getting them in the game. So if you don't have an ender might, and you don't have ender pearls, or you have ender pearls that can your shoulder box that you've saved, it's going to be a while usually before you're going to throw all those ender pearls and get your ender might.
So a pingo has been doing is that he's been keeping his endoproils on his hop bar during
the run and just throwing them whenever he gets a good opportunity.
It takes some health from him which is actually good.
He wants to eat more food so that he can, well, complete the all foods advancement.
That's not actually all foods, but it's like most of the foods, but some foods are more
all than others.
It's just the way it is.
But yeah, he's some from the first and more than all that others, a little wild thing.
It's the way it is.
You know, it's the way it is in a lot of advancements.
Some advancements are more than others.
Why did we punch that villager?
You can do this.
Okay.
I thought he did something mean to you.
Okay.
You can be able to just kind of cool a little bit up here.
No, what's up, did?
There's no farms in these villagers.
These villagers are starting.
And also, I'm sorry.
Carrots carrots would have lovely vegetable that many A runners may be right over there
The bell doesn't know here. How do they live?
Um, it's my toast.
It's good.
I don't know they got the food.
Well, maybe they're lighty-waves.
Maybe they're lighty-waves or something.
They go and rob other villages.
They like fly in with their light troughs and steal a bunch of wheat and then fly weight hold on.
us. Anyone.
What you should talk about more about, oh, oh, they're on Pingus screen for a moment there. I saw
the snowy biome. Oh, we're flying away from it for now. There's a reason for that.
In snowy, in every rare biome, there are, you have like a mental checklist of things you need to do.
It changes for each biome, but there's everybody on the track list.
One of the items on the snowy checklist is to kill a stray.
A stray is a variant of the skeleton, but it can only spawn in a snowy biome.
And it has to spawn at night time because it requires access to the sky.
So it can't spawn in a cave during the day.
It has to spawn at night, which means you don't want to go to a snowy during the day.
So what Pingu is doing is backloading, he's waiting to go to the snowy until it's night time,
because otherwise we're just going to be sitting in the snowy waiting for it to spawn.
So we're doing other things until we can go to the snowy.
Yeah, and as you say, you've got checklist for every biome that includes both the rare biomes,
the medium rare biomes, and the well done biomes, for example, this planes.
You're looking in the planes, you know, you want to breed some
Brits and chickens get some food from the chickens kind of overlapping that while we're waiting here for this snowy night time cycle
Sorry, I see you well done. I know that was all just for the bet that was all for the minute
Well done the well done in the medium rare. How do you like your steak folder? I'm a medium rare guy. What are you? I haven't had a steak in the last like
Maybe in the last decade actually
So I just like he's not
I don't really it's like steak is just not appealing to me
I don't know where I get one frankly it seems expensive also a medium red
I think it's really okay
And speaking of medium red we're in a medium red biome right now
This is of course the lukewarm ocean
Which was a medium or something which I guess is the lube real
I mean, we rarely
tap it ocean the oh
Don't call it that that's disgusting. It can be was just bathing and I don't make a fuss
Tendium is a good one
They're way we have a poll though. Yeah, I don't know. I'm missing three cats
Stake is on this fall. Oh my goodness. Hey, you didn't put a I don't eat steak in here like
I can't respond
I don't need to respond, folder.
That's okay.
The people don't want my thoughts on stake.
I will say, not all one that is running one of those voting well done right now.
I am judging you harshly internally, but that is just me and my opinion.
That's fine.
Speaking of judging actually, this is a good kind of mention.
Oh my goodness.
And Pingu gets a complete catalog completed, so that's a pretty big one.
It's probably a big one, sorry.
I just saw a lot of you there too.
I didn't have a clue.
No, I'm just saying three is crazy.
Let's grow.
I'm listening to that one.
Ah.
So now you're about to love me.
Now, if you're wondering Osmoan or deer viewer, how are these tracker?
trackers. How are these? All of these are runners. Yeah, no, I'm not starting with trackers.
He's keeping track of all of the cats that didn't, I mean, they need 11 cats. How are you going to remember that?
I mean, you got to put it on your mind, Brett. But there's obviously, I would have noticed that if you just told me that they didn't
knew. I, I didn't know. Let's cut this off. They just know. Yeah, there's no. Cool.
Cool. So with that being said, Pinkie was in a beautiful eggloo. I don't know what
how am I hearing it.
I'm a librarian of Riffine. He's setting up for eggloo balls. I think. But he's being
greafed by this incredible Riffine. This is crazy. So let's talk about the snowy
checklist. One of the things that you do when you are in the snowy
volume is zombie doctor. The reason, sort of zombie doctor is you have to cure a zombie
You can give a zombie villager a golden apple while it has the weakness effect and then it will start converting back to a regular villager
And let's play survival world. You would do this because it gives you cheaper trades
Much much cheaper trades. We don't really care about that
But you do need to do it for the advancement.
Did Arbalistic there? It's a beautiful Arbalistic set up.
I've enjoyed thinking you so much. What an incredible player.
player. No, I don't know what to see on the
other player. Do you know that? Yeah. Nobody
else nobody in there right in my
game. This would do that. Our
ballistic setup. Um, but it's
beautiful. Honestly, it's art, I think.
I like the idea that like, while
you're, I think something I'd like
about Minecraft speedrunning is that
you can kind of make artistic
statements in your game play. You
know what I mean? Because there's so
much room for creativity. Of course,
a lot of people will play just to
say. I think it's been able to look at
Oh yeah, let's watch this.
We've placed in a torture trap door and a button and then we're going to place a one arrow in the center and then we're going to fly away and then bulls eye.
It's wonderful.
Using the delay of the button and of course the delay of the redstone torch, which is a certain number of games takes that I don't quite remember off the palm of the head.
To get delay for that arrow going down into the target block.
I want to talk about what this snowy split is.
I was going to, but then again, one of our commentators,
no, look, it was the bullseye.
You can't talk about anything else when you're watching at Bullseye.
There's just something incredible to view it.
Snowy checklist.
Zombie doctor is what I was talking about.
The reason you do this in snowy is because you need a zombie
media zombie villager zombie villagers are kind of annoying to get.
You could obviously weigh at the night and hope that one spawns, but that's not a very good strategy.
Hope my mom tells me often hope is not a strategy.
So we don't do that.
We look for an igloo with a basement specifically, which will always have a zombie
villager in it.
And while it's converting, that conversion process takes three to five minutes,
And it's asterisk, we're not going to talk about it.
We do a lot of other things, including we are breeding rabbits right now.
We're waiting for the nightfall.
The night starts at 15 minutes.
So we're going to kill a stray very soon.
We also did our ballistic, we grow our beet roots, you need to eat beet roots, you
need to make beet roots soup, what else do you do here, ping-a-o?
Oh, and I think you know what's the, you do hired help, we go all the time, have a lot
to hire, and for the, sometimes people will kill the
with our here, but that requires a very specific ordering
and to see if it's not super likely.
Yeah.
There's also,
so a lot of these miniature tasks that you need to do,
like growing up the beat roots and creating a single mob,
we would refer to as miscellaneous things.
And one of these big things is horse donkey and mule,
which I think is probably like the most annoying
bereaved that doesn't require a rare biome
and see things are here as a landed.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Okay. My fault.
Well, I mean, I would not all like meet your rare at best, but yeah.
Can you drop this bit?
Which is good.
This is good.
This is good.
The place is not a new game.
The rare bro.
Plains is not medium rare.
This is not a new game.
Well done.
What do you want to know about?
That's well done.
It's an medium well, like what do you want it?
You're getting a well-weight, medium well.
That's crazy.
Is that a thing?
I'm not a steak person, so...
Hold on.
I don't even know.
I don't even know.
Yeah, it's rare, medium rare, medium, medium well, and then well-done.
Okay.
Interesting.
You're a good chat question here, though.
I'm going to answer talking about
Pingu typing in chat.
So, Pingu will sometimes type numbers into this chat,
And that's because it's a very long speed run, and we're in a snowy biome, snowy is cold.
And when you're cold, it makes it hard to move your fingers, and obviously we need to have
a smooth movement, and keyboard control.
So we type into the chat to keep our fingers warm, so that we can stay at the top of our game for the entire run.
Alternatively, you can head into this well-done biome, which is pretty warm because it's been more cooked.
But that's also true.
Very smart.
I do, I do like the reality that boyping you just likes doing that on the side while he's waiting for something happened during the run.
Yes, unfortunately.
There is a reason there isn't.
It's a little bit too few in the calculations, right?
He's planning over biscuits.
Yeah, Rubik's huge.
Right, of course.
That's one of the advancements, actually.
Now, the real reason is, as we said,
routing is the biggest skill in the category.
And backtracking is the cardinal.
of the category. So you need to know where you're going and where you've already been.
What Pingu is typing in chat is his coordinate rounded to the nearest thousand of where he's
been. So he writes negative three in chat. He'll put nothing if it's x and I think he'll
put z if it's the z coordinate just to help him keep track of where he's been. And then he can scroll
up in his chat later and see all of the coordinates and then he'll be like, okay I've already been
this direction, let me go flat at this other direction. Yeah, and that's another one of those kind of like niche
drooping use strategy is except it's actually a good one because a lot of players just forget where they've been
like me. So yeah, you should do this if you're doing all the ancestors, so it's a good idea.
But of course, something that we were going to get to earlier that I think now might be a good time
to get back to. We're talking about remembering things. What's going on in the run where we've been
that kind of thing. And of course, Pingu is making use of one utility, which is the
chat box. But there's another utility that both ins players are almost certainly making use of
that we can't see in the background, which is doing a lot more tracking for them. And if you
almost brought this up pack earlier, Oxy is only 30 minutes behind the run. That's good. That's good.
No, it's fine. It's fine. Oh, yeah, don't blow up your wolves.
Oh, I can't imagine what could be going on in the other screen.
Only good things.
I was having a bullet.
I still need two cats, but how does Oxi know she still needs two cats?
Now of course, back in the old days you would remember that so you'd go into your brain and you'd be
inscribing it on like those little old gay men's house and bang that tells you only a cat to have.
But it doesn't tell you which one doesn't tell you the same one on the first.
Yeah, if you press L in game unless you rebound it'll bring up the end game defense in
menu and you can see it'll say like a complete catalog 9 out of 11. Wow that was a really
good time for me to bring that up. But I'll tell you how many you have. But there is an external
program which thank you folder. I was going to bring this up for the track. We've been going
towards this for the last like 10 minutes but yeah. Yeah. There is an extra program.
tracker that what attracts everything that you could possibly want to remember.
It shows you all of the advancements that you've done and haven't done.
And more importantly, it shows you the 11 cats, for example,
in which of the which nine you've already done and which two you're still missing.
Which is very useful. It does this for biomes as well.
Each individual button that you need to do, it'll have it on there.
The trackers are very, very useful tool.
And there's another thing which is Ninja Brainbot which is what we used to find the stronghold,
but it also keeps track of where or end-game structures are.
Those are the monuments and the outputs. We'll talk about those again later,
but those are also.
It's worth noting that those are manuals so you do have to do an input in-game in order to get
the Ninja Brainbot to save those coordinates whereas the tracker stuff is all automatic.
So it's reading your statistics file, it's reading your advanced file, and so that way it can know if you've gotten certain things or not
Because all of this is just stored in files in the game essentially
Yeah, okay, let's talk about
There's a jungle over there. Let's be able to follow and know we also just flew through and I got to
Well, you know, we call it a skill issue, and you know, it's erased and like I said my money
So I think you push it doesn't
Wait, I'm not on your mind.
I'm on your mind.
Yeah.
Oxi, can you figure it out?
I got money on you.
I'm sorry.
I mean, I have to have the seed.
This would be really helpful in the news.
When you bounce the saw there are 80 advancements.
And currently, I don't know where we got pack or maybe like 40, 50 advancements.
I honestly have no idea.
38.
I really don't know.
Good guess.
By that lot that we should be done in like an hour, right?
Wow, wow, it's going to be worth it.
Don't eat it, anybody disabuse you of that nurse.
So actually, as I said, that there is a subcategory
that is called half percent as the name implies.
It requires you to get half of the advancements,
any 40 of the 80 that you want.
Now the A person, not the any percent.
The RFGA world record is two hours and five minutes.
How fast do you think the half percent world record is?
A lot of it would dictate that it's like an hour, but I think it's like more like 30 minutes or something.
Right, I think it's actually close to 20 if I remember correctly.
I don't know.
2013.
Yeah.
13.
Yeah.
13.
Yeah.
So the advancements do not scale linearly.
It's the point here.
Getting half of the advancements does not mean we are half of the run unfortunately.
because a lot of the advancements are just like,
get this one item or it's this one.
1441 says Justin and Chat.
That's wild.
Big, big, mongy.
Yes.
Take me on your phone, G.
Shout out.
Big shout out.
Something big.
That doesn't buy it.
There's like a world out there where some
all of an entrepreneur spent 13 minutes on the first 40.
And then an hour and a half on the last 40.
I'm so scared.
Yeah.
Yeah, that's what we've been doing.
the whole time, actually.
I mean, it's not too different.
It's just there's a bunch of little things
that you can overlaid better in a full run
that you just obviously aren't overlapping
in a 13 minute run.
You're just front loading.
Two little touches you can't.
Point out, big, big monkey took the half percent
world record from delighting you.
We had to go back.
Quite notorious, right?
Where we would both play it for like one guy at a time.
And it's finally jungle time, so as you were talking about this, rare bottoms, we did
snowy already.
We also ran into a mega tiger.
I was talking about checklists.
The mega tiger checklist is get mega tiger biome and leave.
The jungle checklist is more involved.
Jungle is inverse of the snowy.
If you're oxidative, you're kicking yourself because it's 59 minutes and it's about the
term day.
So we're not going to get a straight, I'm going to ask where I did it, I was going to ask
it.
Look at beautiful.
The jungle is the opposite.
The jungle you want to hit at daytime.
The reason for this is because one of the items in your checklist is oscillots.
oscillots are kind of weird.
Specifically you're upgrading two oscillots.
Yes, yes.
To breed two oscillots because you need to breed all of the moms that can be.
Except not really.
Anyways.
the awesome ones. Sorry, I don't know if that's something tender Joe because I don't think I have
been. Right, so when when he says intended jungle, jungle, he means the one that I
looked at the seed for. I will say to both of you, there's a band that you've
I'm just like, I'm like,
I don't know, I don't know, I don't know.
I'm so, also lots, also it's a weird.
They're a passive mob in the fact
that they can't hurt you and they don't want to hurt you,
which makes them like chickens or cows or sheep.
However, internally, they are hostile mob,
like creepers and zombies.
And what this means is that they also have
hostile mob spawning mechanics, which means they share the same mob cap. I don't want to get
two details here, but if it's night time is not too complicated. Essentially, there's a limit
on the number of hostile mob that can spawn. Once you hit the number to 70, you don't spawn anymore.
So, so if it's night time and you've got a bunch of creepers and skeletons, you're not going
to get any more hostile mob spawns, or at least it's annoying to get more. So you want to find
jungle at daytime so that none of those exist and then the only hostile mobs
they're going to dispawning are oscillats. You'll see players sometimes fly straight up
to try to refresh spawns. Flying straight up with this does is hostile mobs will
despawn the moment that they are 128 blocks away from the player. So if you fly
straight up, a hundred blocks above the ground, they all disappear and then when
you come back down they can search spotting again and you can get a fresh batch
of hostile mobs and hopefully some of us will have to
with them.
Yeah, I think the ask is now at the time for a wellness
break that we completely do here on GD topics.
Oh, yeah, I forgot about that.
One hour.
Yes.
I think it depends when the bay can pause.
I think it's already paused.
Oh, okay.
I think it's not paused.
I think it's not paused.
I don't know.
I don't know.
three into one pause.
All right, we did it, we did it, we did it.
All right, folks.
All right, folks.
All right.
Large bug on my monitor.
Oh, no.
Well, that's, well, there's never taken along this way right now.
With that being said, folks, typically here on the GUI fixed for longer runs,
we could take along this breaks.
Just sort of running and have a chance to.
chance to get up in stretch. We'll be right back in just a bit of this right
ramping another one. Let's pick it up on the two-hour mark. But get up in stretch.
You get some monitors to the bottom. We will be right back.
Hello, again, everyone. Welcome back to the singing crown. I hope you're enjoying this wonderful
Minecraft All Advancement Race with Doiping Union Arc City. For those of you tuning in for the
first time, this shows all about glitchless and no major glitchless rounds or around to just
having that really built no glitches in them. And this is a episode that's all just Minecraft All Advancements.
We've been having a wonderful time. I hope you all have been to. And before we get into the rest of the run, I just want to say happy coming from the cold day that is a real holiday and it is today.
So please be safe with the cold coming and joy this wonderful cozy run of Minecraft all adventures, especially if you're on the east coast, so there's an ice one coming out where this weekend, so please be safe coming from the cold.
And so with that being said, I'm going to toss a ride back over to
a door picking you in Oxidia with our commentator,
Steph's top folder and Catholic NBC.
Do you take it away from the rest of this run?
I'm really, really enjoying and hope you all are here.
Take it away.
Okay, we're going to get the timer started again in three, two, one, and go.
So before we left off, we were talking about this jungle
that pinged its hawk saw.
And what he said was, I think this jungle with, and what we mean by that is,
not all jungles are created equal. The checklist requires a specific, a very specific
jungle. Seeing a jungle is not good enough, and most situations, you need there are five jungle
and the bamboo, the volume is very rare within even untrungal and you also need hand-a-spons.
Hand-a-spons are different from the oscillats spawns. You cannot just go get more.
Whatever fear is there.
But like you're never doing that in all of that since run.
Whatever a panther there is what you're stuck with.
And if that number is less than two, which a lot of the time it is, then you need to go fly somewhere else.
you'll find another bamboo jungle.
Now obviously because on a nice person,
there is a bamboo jungle.
Somewhere, but it is not the one that
can go found, which means he's going to
keep did the oscillates and then be left.
And we're going to go look for one
other things now.
Yeah.
We kind of spoke earlier about the despair
of playing all advancements.
Jungle is definitely one of those despair
causing features of the run.
Every all advancements pro player knows
from even like your first couple of runs in the category,
how annoying it is to come up to that jungle
to see it in the distance.
And you're like, finally, I can do my jungle.
And you get there and there's no bamboo.
Or you get there and it's a bamboo.
And you spend five minutes in your calf end
to single panda and you're like, oh my goodness,
there's no pandas.
It's just a complete nightmare of a biome.
Fortunately, I would say it does hit a decent percentage of the time.
What do you think of percentage of cancer?
I think it's between like a 1 and 4 and a 1 and 3
that your jungle is fully good.
Okay, I think like I've always I think like when I initially talked about it with other runners like years ago
Well, maybe not years ago, but you're well, I guess if it's more than a year it's years, but like in any case
The kind of like vibes feeling is like either it happens or it doesn't it almost feels like a 50 50
But yeah, I definitely wouldn't be surprised or physically one and four which is
Which is not fun because there's a solid chance
you don't find a jungle on your run at all ever.
And you just reset the run with no jungles,
maybe no mace, maybe no snowy,
and you feel like complete this suffocating feeling
of like, I did all of this work.
I got this deep into the run.
I spent an hour and a half, two hours,
depending on how good you are at the run, depending on when you reset.
And you just, you couldn't do it,
and the sea just didn't give it to you.
And you sit there and you stare at your computer screen
and you look at the reset button and you're like,
man, and then you get a lot of money.
Let's take a deep run.
Sorry, I'm not talking about anybody in particular.
So I think the point of this showcase
race is to show people that is on speedrun.
Oh, sorry, sorry.
Let me write that down real quick on like a posted note.
So I don't forget.
This is fun.
You've never had any future news.
It is called the Signacle Out, which means we're trying to
explore the world and take a time looking at that list, you know.
So I'm always seeing around doing my sweet run. That's kind of the vibe we're going for.
Which that does lead to a question that I typically ask. This show is all about a glitch
list runs and NNG runs. What would a glitch run of AA look like? So in Minecraft, there are
there really aren't that many fun, super impactful glitches. There's a lot of glitches that
really don't impact anything. The main glitch that you'll see in a glitch to be
on is the deep glitch, which you're just doing items. There's several ways to
dop items, but it's very useful. You can do what you can do the obsidian,
you can do prop pearls, which is mostly what you're going to see. In all advancements,
You know, people don't really play all advancements glitched that often because so many of
these RNG elements, like the biomes, for example, there's no glitch that's going to corrupt
the ocean into turning into a jungle, that doesn't exist.
There's no glitch that's going to make it start thundering, that doesn't exist.
And because of that, there's, of course, there's time save and glitches, dupping items
is always going to save time, but the flying around bit, there's no instantaneous transportation
glitch or anything like that, which is a bit sad in my opinion, because I love a cool glitch
as much as an expert. There is time travel. I don't know if you mentioned that already, though.
There is time travel, which is kind of like instant travel, but like not really. It's just like
really boring. So not really worth getting into. Somebody got a new, was it a
new thunderless world record or was it a new world record? I thought there was a
new glitch world A world record. Yeah Zesky, maybe a couple of days ago. I
didn't try to find it in the discord and I can't see it. But yeah, there was some
kind of glitch world record recently in all of Athens. But some of those
things were like, so few people play it that every once in a while someone will
be like, okay, I'm going to go do it.
Hey, I hear it as on the 17th of January by Zeskyo, the random seed
glitched thunderless road record, time of two hours and seven minutes.
Unfortunately, you will note that that is slower than the glitch is wrong.
It's so good.
That's a good time.
You story wasn't even, like for the longest time, it wasn't even, like, sub four, right?
Yeah, which is the way to listen to my story.
something. Yeah. It's just that people play these kind of gore's
last. You'll see this with four lines. You're last. Yeah. You see this
thing with the core runs last to sometimes A runners will get a little
silly and flipping people will call up as good buddy Kush and we'll say hey
can we play duos and then they'll play duos for like a day and then they'll
get a world record and then they won't play it in for six months and then
it repeats you know. Also shout out to a person who is watching with many of our
friends. Mm-hmm. And anime is too, but we don't need an anime. Of course. Of course.
Yeah. Yes. We have many enemies, folder and how. Oh my goodness. Yeah. Too many to name.
I found my thing. It's weird for snow. It's okay. That's good.
and oxy finds a Megataga immediately you can recognize Megataga because it's very big you can see this
tall trees in distance that's one of the five airbiles
I'm gonna call this maybe.
Well, I don't know if I will broke out.
I don't know if I keep on knowing.
Hey, it's that side of our package.
No, I did not standardize the Envil Rape.
Okay, sure.
We can talk about Envil for a moment.
Envil's are used whenever you combine two tools,
or you put an Enchanted Book onto a tool, or something like that.
There's a random chance that it uses up a jerk.
Okay, let's try that.
Yeah, we're gonna try that.
We're gonna try to end.
So this can't put my channeling book on
because we don't want some time.
And so, it's lovely.
Lovely.
Incredible.
And those are also pretty expensive.
It's what?
40 iron for an anvil.
I can't do them out of my head.
It's 30 iron for an anvil.
Like, look, I haven't played a in a while, okay?
It's 31 iron for an anvil.
And iron is one of those things.
You're like, if you're, if you like play Minecraft casually,
you're like, oh, 31 iron.
Well, I'll just pop over to my iron farm in a.
It's not quite like that.
King is going to start checking some of these shipwrecks,
probably for iron, and you can cut iron pretty quickly that way,
but it's still like kind of annoying.
You still have to go in like fine.
No access to that.
So I need it because I needed more iron
for an advanced level to hire help.
We need four iron blocks, just want to go on.
So I was already getting on for that.
And then I need 31 more for another info.
You need like basically stack of iron almost.
Yeah.
Yeah.
That's right.
In good news though, boy Pingu has the try to know as we talked about and we have eight
shells.
Eight shells is an important number.
How did we get here?
The events we get all the effects.
You need an effect called conduit power.
conduit power is only acquired through a conduit.
And to craft a conduit, you need eight shells.
There's a couple ways to get shells, some better than others.
For example, the best method of getting shells, you can fish in, yeah, you can fish in the ocean,
with the fishing rod and those the chance you'll pull up a shell.
The second best method is wandering traders.
One in traders will spawn, well, it's pumped to spawn every 20 minutes.
and then there's a five out of sixty eight chance
that they will offer a shelter.
Are you even thinking that's,
because there's sixty eight.
No, is it sixty three?
I think it's sixty three,
because it's however, whatever, not a boy.
It's like a choose climb in any case.
Okay, whatever.
And then there's the most boring way,
which is drowns will have shells when you see them.
and then you kill them and you steal their bones,
which is a time, but that's life.
The thing is, the issue is basically that like,
the first two strategies, which are way more cool
interesting and fun, do you require a lot of luck,
which these players as AA players
can honestly don't have.
So unfortunately, they're going to be
not really going to be boarding, right?
Totally, totally.
Yeah, yeah.
Cannotically, doping you is an unlucky individual
and so is oxytid.
So unfortunately, we couldn't get any of the lucky AA
players on, like, like, fine, you're going to enjoy it.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Inshaming the toy, it's like, very lucky.
But it's good.
Well, I think that's partially like the idea, like the scenic route.
Right?
We're kind of taking a chill.
We're not going to be like super lucky.
We're going to kind of just, you know, we're going to fight, you know, like the underdog.
So that's what I see.
So we got the rarest buy-in-the-game here.
The mushroom-yel.
I'm a pin-eater screen.
So this is a very rare buy-in.
Well, the rarest rare buy-in.
But it's not really the fourth.
Yeah.
And finally, there was a rare buyer there.
There are rare bions that are not considered rare bions.
Yes.
But as you were discussing earlier,
not well-bions are all bions.
Some all bions are not all bions,
which means that we care about the all bions in a,
which means we care about the rare bions of the all bions,
not the rare bions of the all bions of the all bions.
I mean, excuse me.
I wish I could have done that right.
Oh, yeah.
Oh, yeah.
That was so much sense.
Thank you for having me.
Thank you for having me.
You're standing so much more.
I'm interested in it.
I just love the acceptance, is it the rarest or the rarebions and find it's not necessarily
rare, but it's like rare than rare.
You know?
Yeah, exactly.
That's exactly.
Not for them, but it's something like that.
Anyways, Mushroom Island.
The Mushroom Island has two biomes, mushroom fields, and mushroom field, ashore, and you
you also get mushrooms on a mushroom island.
It's the only place where they will spawn
and you need to breed mushrooms, of course.
Now we've done both of those things.
There's also a couple of other useful things you can do
on a mushroom island.
No way.
Sorry.
That's okay.
You can be excited.
I like skiing.
I'm a big ski.
Oh, wait, I'm tired of that.
This is gonna be a fun mushroom island.
That's kind of a big thing.
Well, that's not your,
so, okay, I'm here.
That's what I was trying to give them a seed to play. That's what I was looking for. So when I did this, I was looking for these
is so-called rarebions within a 5K distance from zero.
So you're lededly rarebions?
Yeah, the allegedly rarebions.
Not so rarebter.
After all, are you?
Mm-hmm.
You're a quick learner.
Yes, the allegedly rarebions.
So now both players have a mushroom island.
Both players have gone to a snowy, both players have gone to a mega tiger.
So they still need jungles and mesa.
The ace is the only one that we haven't seen at all.
Mesa sometimes called Badlands.
It's the same thing.
The change that name at some point,
because why not?
But it's the rare version of the desert.
It's got a red stands, and it looks pretty cool, honestly.
Yeah, it's a wonder that they call it Badlands.
When it's kind of like a pretty good land overall,
like I put it in the top, like, up ten.
I mean, it's bad land in the sense that we can't live there.
and you can't like play it.
Oh, it's Minecraft, right?
It's a game of not a battle.
You totally could build a house there.
Well, it's sure I've much to talk about.
Right, much to think about.
Much to think about.
Much to consider.
Much to see some of considering.
You might have read on the answer real quick.
Of course.
Thank you very much.
I just wanted to remind folks about a event
that actually coming up in two weeks,
believe it or not, in time passes,
I love the passage of time.
two weeks we are going to have a back to black twenty twenty six two name February 5th
3rd 8th for backs of black twenty twenty six a four days speed run marathon featuring
black speed runers benefiting race or a few exclamation points scheduled in the quick
chance to check out the event or visit gdc.ggs on the EAS to learn more the folks over there
at black and flash had done amazing work in the back of black but whole schedule is actually
the amazing knowing all of it. I actually love everyone that's worked on it and a lot of
runners that are participating in it and so please check out and support back to Black and
donate some more money for race or the people while you're watching. With that being said,
as we go back here to the run, I do want to ask how much of this seed have you the commentators
kind of seen beforehand, bedded beforehand and understand that like this is going to be a possible
seed and what how how detailed is or knowledge of this seed okay my my knowledge is
very different from best of olders knowledge. Fold it I don't know anything at all.
Well I know I know the rules by which like I know it's necessary to exist but I haven't
seen this either. Who would give you a very itemized list of everything specifically but
I'm just gonna hit the highlight share which is a playable any percent which means we have
the temple at the very beginning of the run,
the village at the beginning of the run,
and a way to get into the other.
Then in the other,
there's a bastion of fortress,
and then in the end,
there's an entity with a ship.
And in the overworld,
we know that there is the five rarebimes
that we're looking for.
As for where they are,
how far they are,
how you get there,
I do not care.
I hope to.
Answers, you're looking for,
I don't know if you want to know
detail on something, I can provide if you'd like.
I mean, or that much you go as you'd like to give, you know, I'm not going to ask more,
and don't be the only kind of, I don't want things to be spoiled for the runners'
ring in the end, but without spoiling anything.
So, okay, sure.
They overall, the temple and the village, we want to make sure that the runners don't
have to run too far.
So, I do have a distance limiter on those structures specifically to make sure that we're not
running like a thousand blocks at the very beginning of the run, because that's just
boring, we don't need to be doing that. So that exists, it exists for the
another as well. And there is some others looped in the beginning
temple. So the enchanted golden apple, the surprise tool for
later, I made sure that that would be in the very first temple that
we were going to get. It's normally an enchanted golden apple. It's about
a 10% chance to show up in any given temple. We don't like,
oxidator right now has two injectable genophils, but that's not guaranteed.
And depending on which temples you go to, you might not get one at all.
So we wanted to make sure that both players have one, front of the beginning of the runs,
they don't need to worry about it.
That's one of the things we did.
I do want to answer a very good chat question that we've been avoiding this entire time,
but why do they run under the gold?
Every time we're in an ocean and we see a monument, you'll see the runners dive down into
the monument and steal all the precious belongings of the drowned.
out the ground of the guardians.
Folder, why do we steal?
Why do we steal just in general?
Like I think a lot of reasons.
Greed the rush.
I know you know what's going on here.
You know what's going on here.
You know what's going on here.
Like the adrenaline, like it's crazy
because like what if you get the bond, like all that stuff.
But of course, we're talking about my gluttoning.
Fuck me.
We're gonna list out the 7, 7, right now.
Oh, I know, since, yeah.
No, but of course, in Minecraft and all of us
is returning the main thing we care about is backtracking.
So you're always making sure you're going through
the seed collecting resources.
And one of those resources you're collecting are the gold blocks.
And so yeah, as you said, you were saying
we're collecting gold blocks for some purpose.
And that purpose is the advancement beconator.
Now, beconator, if you're familiar with baconator,
I don't know if that is, it's just a word.
That's actually an item from the Wendy's menu.
It's say Burger is all about that.
He's taken bacon.
Yeah.
See, I know that the bakingator is a thing that exists,
but I don't think I've ever had one or seen one or none
of this, so anyways.
So, be a conator, of course, my craft advancements,
a lot of them are kind of like punny.
Now, personally, I'm not a huge fan of puns,
I'm kind of anti-ities, like cheap jokes,
by whatever it's fine, so it is.
But of course, be a conator is one of those advancements.
Lying, gluttony, thrill, anyways.
And decanator requires that we make a full beacon.
So a full beacon requires two stacks that's 64 times two, so 128 gold blocks plus another 36.
You can do the math in your head if you want.
I'm not going.
164 now.
164 gold blocks.
Wow, that's incredible pack. You're so good at math.
You're going to need a hundred and 64 gold blocks.
Well, a hundred and 64 mineral blocks, the rather,
to make a full beacon and once the beacon is fully powered,
If you're standing right near it, you're gonna get the beaconator advancement. Now, of course,
having a fully powered beacon is also useful because you can select two things in the beacon.
And so, just one beacon's give you effects. They give it like effects in a radius essentially.
And the effects that we're gonna be getting later on in the run are gonna be jump boost and
pace. It is haste. It is called haste.
For some reason, never mind, whatever. We won't get into that.
Yeah, you're gonna get jump boost and haste. Now haste, you know, it is interesting.
Don't worry about it.
Pace is interesting because hast is the one thing that you need from the beacon.
You don't actually need jumpers from the beacon.
You can make a jump boost of potion.
In fact, back in the olden days of all advancements players used to make a jump boost potion.
And then we realized that it was really slow and it was better to not do that.
So we don't do that anymore.
You do need hast from beacon.
There's no other way to get hast.
You can do hast with a tier one beacon.
So you can totally play with just a tier one beacon, which only requires nine gold blocks.
But then you wouldn't get the beacon in advancement.
And then you'd only get 79 out of 80 advancements and that's like, no, well, that's not like
That is not all the advancements, which is usually we're going for here. So that's where we're getting into a box
While we were talking about that both of the runners did find our Mesa by him. I believe
No
Yes, so I'm on your screen. I've met that thing. You got it. Oh
Oh
Well, you found it first if that makes you feel better. You found it first
You're like mostly
I just think that because I'm like basically and I really don't
Which I think being said it's a pretty good time to talk about the next phase of the run
So
We're not heading into a new phase of the run
So previously we talked about the idea that you have the early game, the mid game, and the end game, and all events, it's run and that is true
That's kind of the way that all of us in players think about the all of us in run routing in general
But we are gonna be heading into a different part of the mid game
So when you play a seat linearly, it's different than playing it out of order
That's probably pretty obvious and there's a lot of ordering and can do in the mid game
But there's kind of a linear way of doing it which is usually that you go first into a desert
You get all the stuff you need for the run from the desert
So you get all your TNT, which we're going to need later.
We'll talk about that later.
You get all of your gunpowder, which you need for rockets that you can fly.
And then you leave the desert.
Ideally, you don't really come back later on.
Then you're going to go into the ocean.
You get all the stuff you need in the ocean.
That's where you've been for the last 20, 30 minutes of this run.
I don't even know.
We've been here for a while.
And once you've got all the stuff you need from the ocean,
you're going to go into the netter.
So again, you don't have to do it in this order.
And a lot of runs aren't done in this order.
This is a very good seed, and the players are able to play pretty linearly.
Oh, it's beautiful.
It's beautiful
Yeah, we found the jungle
the
and boo jungle. All right, oxy stalks are back up. Yeah, so oxy is now winning because she's the better player, and that's why I have all my money on it in my house
I think believers are passionate right now. This is like emphasis
Actually, I shouldn't say this is
This is End Zero Hero.
This is End Zero Hero.
Yeah, I'm going to push the corner because I figured that if it was in the corner that
would suck.
So the way Pinky is now also found the bamboo jungle.
So now both players are tied.
Yes.
But I don't know if to do all of those.
And you both have a ventrican.
It pops up on Oxy's screen.
So that's one of those major advancements, very exciting.
And as we saw there, there are pandas here,
it's a beautiful, I think I counted,
there were seven of them, which is a lot more
than you normally get.
Well, you know, they gotta take a bath every once in a while.
Yeah.
Of course, in Minecraft, pandas can't smell
because there's no way to detect the scent of a mob.
But they can't see, he's just so runaway from you.
That is true, so nice to see you.
Which is why if you're going to go, you know,
greet your condos, it's always good to take a quick shower
before you do that.
You don't want them sneezing over you
and kind of getting you all gross and gelatinous you.
So, gelatinous.
Instead of real word, there's no way that's a real word.
Speaking of gelatinous you,
Pinky was going to head into another,
what do you mean speaking of gelatinous you?
This is not, I was taking the leather.
When he was in the pool, you had kind of a nausea effect,
which is kind of jiggly, which is kind of gelatinous?
Jiggly.
Okay.
Right.
You never thought that.
So what do we need to do in the Nether?
That's a great pressure hack.
So of course there's a couple of things
that you need to do in the Nether.
One of them is you need to get all the Bions.
Now unlike in the overworld where we only need to get
some of the all of the Bions, in the Nether,
we need to get all of the all of the Bions.
Fortunately, it's a lot easier to do this in the Nether.
There's only four biomes, they added.
There's five.
There's five.
There's a void.
I mean, you know, you talk of the void of the void.
No, wait, are they actually five?
Yeah, wait, I was just ways.
Sprow, ways.
No, wait.
Isn't there didn't they add three to that for?
Bro.
Are you serious?
So anyways.
Anyways, like I said, you need to get all the all of the biomes.
In the another, we're changing to get all five of another biomes.
They added four of them in another update,
and one of them always existed before.
So of course, you have to kind of
the plain, another biome.
Then you're going to go and get the other four biomes.
And we're in one of them right now.
And this is a really, really useful biome.
It's the Soul Sound Valley.
Now, Soul Sound Valley, notorious for being very annoying
for casual Minecraft players, for all advancements players.
This is where you want to see your fortress.
Now, of course, for Indifortures right now,
that's what they're doing.
He's killing weather skeletons to get weather skeletons
skulls.
Weather skeletons are a lot easier to find.
If the fortress is in a Soul Sand Valley,
because it changes how the mob's funding works,
we're not going to get into it
because I'm definitely going to say something wrong
and pack a little black on me.
The point is, if your fortress is in a Soul Sand Valley,
where you can see all these like Soul Sand,
Soul Sand blocks, that's what they're called.
Where you can see all these Soul Sand blocks,
you're going to get a lot more with the skeletons,
your split here is going to be a lot faster
when you're able to kill a lot more with their skeletons.
And of course, there's a rare chance that you get this
with her skeleton skull from you with her skeleton when you kill it and I got
it's very valuable. Thank you for demonstrating that boy Pingu. So we have a one with
her skeleton skull. How many do you need? Is it just the one? I mean he got the
advancement for getting spooky scarce skeleton. Surely we're done now, right?
Fuller than full time. That's a great question. Sorry. I was answering a chat
question. A very important one. But yes, we need three with her skeleton skulls
because of course, like humans with their skeletons.
What, where was I going?
Where are you going?
Don't worry about it.
Let's just completely divert from that.
So there's a mob in the game called the weather.
Now, if you've played Minecraft, you probably know what the weather is.
But if you don't, basically it's one of the three boss mobs, three boss mobs, whatever.
The point is, some of the mobs in Minecraft are not made equal.
And the ender dragon is one of them, but another one is the weather.
And you need to kill it with their in order to make a beacon and you also need to kill whether to do the all mobs killed
Advancement so we need to spawn one in and to spawn one in you need through the salt and smells
And I'm just gonna leave it there. I think I'm gonna stop talking for a second here and I'm gonna
See my I was excited. I'm sorry. I understood it perfectly
Thank you. Thank you. We did get there in the end. So we did also can I just be sort of I
Haven't played my crap casually in such a long time
But I didn't even know that there were multiple other biomes. I guess I just thought it was the one
I'll be so these were the
mentioned sorry I hope yeah the new bounds are added in the 1.16 update, which is the major up that they were playing on playing on the minor up the 1.16
point 1. That one doesn't really matter that much
But all the bounds are added there. That's also when all of the bastion structures were added
You wanted to add something full day?
No, well, I didn't want to mention, I wanted to build basically on what you said there,
which is that I won the Session 1 as you're saying, this is the version where they added a lot of stuff to
another.
And if you're listening, you're kind of like, okay, that's like the stuff is added in the subject,
that makes sense.
You probably don't immediately realize that like this is why we're playing on this version.
The another is such a huge difference to Minecraft speed running, but like the things they added in
one system are so incredibly powerful, basically everybody just plays on one Session 1.
Now, of course, there's people who play on other versions, like, people who play all versions of Minecraft and play in, you know, 1.1, they play in 1.7, 1.8, whatever, but with the vast majority of Minecraft's here on screen.
There's weirdos that play it 1.15. I think one of them is gonna call with us right now.
How do we open our goodness? That's terrifying. Yeah, absolutely terrifying.
Are there people who play 1.0 in the big Q6? 1.0? No, like, probably.
Yeah, didn't K-4 get like a 1.0 record like a run-in on the 24th time.
Well, I mean, we're only in 26 for 22 days.
So basically there's a bunch of stuff like earlier we were in the Bastion, the Bastion is incredible.
You can get pearls so much easier in a Bastion than you can, like any other way in any version.
So yeah, just a lot of stuff going on. That makes 1.6, you know, 1.
essentially the the best feeling version to speedar Minecraft on. I don't know if it's necessarily the fastest version like
Always like sometimes
I'm gonna speed around speed around speed fast on version. Yeah, let's go on. Let's talk about what Oxy's doing. Yeah, on easy alliance
we
On easy alliance in game that tells you to take a gas to the overall and kill it in the overall
But the way the game checks for it is just that the player has killed a gas while the players in the overall
So technically, we can leave the gas behind.
We do some finagling with how the game is loaded by going through the portal a couple of times.
It keeps the nether loaded while the players in the overall world, which is usually not true.
And that way, the TNT can stay, and the TNT will then explode and kill the guys while the players in the overall,
giving us the uneasy lines of advancement.
So we used to build a massive, another portal up on the roof, which is obviously slow and annoying.
Um, or New Zealand's is still annoying, but at least it's not slow anymore.
Incredibly slow.
It was so unbelievably slow.
And sometimes you get a trapped one and try to put into a portal, but it was just like,
it was disgusting.
Something that I think is worth mentioning at this point, which I was going to mention earlier,
but like I kind of sidetracked and forgot about it, uh, Osborne.
You asked a long, long time ago about glitches.
If there's useful glitches in Minecraft.
Now, we, of course, answered like, yeah,
you can do put your items,
so that's what you do in the glitched run.
Now, some people would say that R.S.G. Minecraft's G-Drones
should actually be called a random seed, no major glitches.
And reverse on easy as kind of an example of that, not really,
but it's like, it's one of those things
where like, yeah, the game is programmed about it works this way.
So it's not wrong that you do it that way,
but it's clearly unintended
that you can kill the gassed while you're in the open world
and get the advancement.
But there's a lot of stuff like that in my crap
where you're kind of like, well, it just works
as far as the shocker uses another good example
where we were like lying the shocker in the boat.
Like that was not programmed to work that way,
but because it's considered to be like an intent,
like not an intended consequence,
but it's a consequence of an intended behavior.
So it's an exploit, yeah, it's not a glitch,
it's an accident, but that's kind of like,
it's one of those lines where you're kind of like,
well, I mean technically,
like, it's a worry line and it's mostly vibes.
Like let's say it's on a more precise,
I mean, if we're being so real, the whole concept of a glitch
is like a very arbitrary thing anyway.
Yeah.
Like we could go on for hours and hours about what a glitch really is.
But it's community to find the different language I enjoy.
Yeah.
And there's been discussions about all the stuff
in the Minecraft Speedrunning community over time.
And it varies and different people have different opinions.
opinions but yeah we're pretty I think things are pretty sad at this point on the goal
and the goal and the goal and the pick ones will be more if the goal and kick
down to them by uh and it was this bastion here the one that doping
yours and this is called a bridge bastion has a beautiful little chalice here
with 16 golden blocks which is useful 16 gold blocks is equivalent of two
monuments every monument has eight gold blocks which is good for this also good
because it has a guaranteed load stone.
The load stone requires another right in gets to craft,
which is very expensive.
We need a load stone for country load to take me home.
I think it's also the longest advancement name,
but anyways.
It's definitely up there, that's for sure.
Yeah.
So you need a load stone.
But mining for another,
is slow and orangey.
I mean, we don't like doing it.
So if you can minimize the amount of another ride that we have to mine for at the end of the run
We are very happy and finding a bridge and getting that load soon as a it's basically a free
Another riding it which is which is very nice to have
Which is one in southern of the park on the right? I'm doing the math in my head, but I've been really feeling it that tonight
Seven is it one in six it's one in six. Yeah, it's one in six. Okay, anyways
It's getting back to the run.
Yeah.
I think that's what we did currently
for the other enchanting.
So what's up with that?
We were talking about.
So we talked about channeling earlier
and boyping you, of course, being the
more skilled runner was able to find
a channeling book in a temple.
Oxitya was not able to use
the skill to herd vintage,
so she has to enchant for it,
which is not working for you all I think.
No.
And we are now down to 22 levels.
So, fully enchanting works, this is pretty complex, but I know that channeling, for example,
the very lowest level that I can show up at is level 21 on the enchanted table.
It's not worth anything.
It's just writing away.
Oh, really?
It's really chatted with table.
What we do is we use bookshelves to bring up to level 30, which is the most power
And then we will place a string or some other kind of block to block a bookshelf and then
it will take it down from 30 to 28 to 26 to 24 to 22.
And we will check at each of these levels and we will see if
channeling decides to show up.
Which it didn't.
And the reason string is usually used is because you can instantly break out
to restart your...
It does.
Yeah, we didn't get channeling.
So we're going to do now is we're going to get our withish skeletons.
This is, we know it's challenging showing on table walks the year, so it just needs 20 cents.
Okay, so oxygen shows that she needs 26 levels to enchant the treatment with channeling.
And this is the easiest way to get a bunch of bubbles that like you need to do anyway.
So we need to kill these weather skeletons, they drop a lot of XP.
So we're going to get the levels pretty quickly here, and then we're going to enchant the the channel.
It's actually very useful at the enchanting table.
Keepsets current and shantmen stored.
Otherwise, it would be annoying.
I'm going to attribute of the player, I think.
It is.
It is the current piece seed of the player is stored.
Which, I guess we never talked about this, but at the very beginning, when of the run, when you create a world, the current exp seed of the player is always set to zero instead of some random number.
which means that the first enchantment that you get on any world is always consistent
Which is very useful for example on a trident the first enchant as we call them is
channeling so if the very first item this is at level 30 of course the very first thing that you
Inchant is a trident level 30 you are guaranteed a channeling which is very useful
But most of the time the most you can use first enchant is
is yeah, it's going to be a looting to on a diamond sword.
There's also looting three on an iron sword,
and there's a bunch of other useful first-in-chance to know.
That's a very good make-in, I guess we glossed over that.
So one is just so fast as these runners are so good.
Well, there's a lot going on as well.
All advancements is kind of a very petty category.
There's not like it's not for your linear.
You don't really know what's going on a lot of the time, so it's hard to keep track.
It's a little bit stuck, huh?
I got like a stack from all the little world, which is pretty low.
So part of the reason why you would be saying the gold is low is because generally speaking you're going to do a certain amount of ocean, right?
right to get to this point in the run. You don't need to get your goal
blocks for motion, but you do need to get your tribe and your shells from the ocean.
Now of course, and you already have, can you do you have the shells actually
before it gets as if it has a convo. So yeah, can you already have eight shells?
He's got enough for conduit, which we're going to need later on in the state. So
he's done with the overall, and at that point you kind of expect that once you've
spent enough time in the ocean to get all eight shells, especially considering how long
we have to spend in the ocean getting that tribe. And you kind of expect that
at that point, you already had a certain amount of gold blocks.
Usually, I would say like a stack in the half.
Maybe, I think I don't know if you would agree with that.
But something like that seems pretty normal.
But we only got a stack.
So there just weren't a ton of monuments in the ocean.
Not something that was checked for on the street.
I would assume like monument density.
That's not really necessarily something you would be checked for.
No worries.
Oh, yeah.
The lava has been.
So yeah, obviously there's no.
We're enchanting.
There's the channeling and now both players are able to hit under whenever it were to start
thundering and I'm not saying that because it's thundering because I'm not going to give
any spoilers to do a ping-goo but it is definitely a ping-goo.
That would be really important to you.
Yeah, that would be really important information to give away to ping-goo.
Who's in the nether and so the thing is that way in the nether you can figure out if it's raining
but you can't really figure out if it's thundering. There's nowhere for you to know.
So, generally speaking, yes, in fact, do you want to explain this?
Oh, I'm glad that you bring up the thing and then I have to explain it.
Yeah, you have to explain it to me.
Yeah, so basically there's no actual way to know, but because when it rains,
the sky darkens and just some bug, it also darkening other things.
It also affects another. So if you like you can tell like an experience kind of see right now in the another
That there is what we call like another rain fall. If you can tell that this is darkened for what anyone is
Especially on the world. Do I think it's more obvious, but it's just kind of like it feels like the the farther away chunks are getting
E-net and like consumed more by the distance. I don't really know
Now I get what you're saying
Not really anything. I didn't know that was a thing.
It's actually very annoying because generally speaking,
you have to go into the overall to check for thunder anyways,
like it's just the way it is.
But something that a lot of players will do is something called another beat.
So you can put your beat in another, and in another, it's always daytime.
So you need your beat to work, and these will only work during the day,
so you can put your beat in another, you can chunk load another,
and then your beat will work even if it's a mic time in the overall,
or that sort of thing.
But the rain, if it's raining in another,
that prevents your bees from working
while they're in another, even though it's not actually raining.
But the game thinks it's raining and the bees won't work.
So there's been a lot of development on that
in the last year, actually.
Just kind of like a weird niche situation
that happens more frequently than they would really expect.
Thankfully, doping you, maybe due to our help, maybe not.
It's also found this way that actually a world
and has able to pick the very, very frightening advancement.
So both players are done with thunder now.
This is one of the things I want to say in the track of the Dunlathunder.
Yeah, which we can't see, but true.
You can just pretend.
I envision the words Dunlathunder, because when you see those as an A player, it feels really, really good.
You've passed the most annoying RNG check with the entire deck.
So, this is one of the things that the RNG standardization of the mod does do.
You'll notice that the range started, well I guess we didn't notice because it was in the other.
But the rain starts at the same time for each other and and same with the thunder
That doesn't normally happen thunder and rain whether it is not something that's tied to the seed
So if you open up the world ten times the thunder will happen at different parties
But it would be a laugh to guys
guys.
It's a great weapon.
Oh, there it is.
Okay.
I need a lot of gold.
No.
Sensing a common theme here.
Yes.
I think this is what it would be like a good follow-up thing to what you're asking
earlier Osborne about like how much pack checked the scenes for specifically.
Yeah.
Generally speaking, pack, you're checking for things that are necessary for the rest.
So you're checking for the structures that have to be there.
You need the fortress, you need the bastion, you need the stronghold to be like to have like libraries that kind of thing
It's not playable if you don't have that, but the seed is playable if you don't have like 15 monuments close to spawn that kind of thing
So that's the sort of thing that like pack was not checking for it
We don't know how many monuments there are generally speaking if you see a big ocean
It's probably good enough and this seed it just wasn't as good. It's the way it is
But yeah, definitely not checking for that kind of seed quality thing and that's the sort of thing we're like again
This is like this is a seed that pack hand picked for these players to play and it's it's you know
It's good, but it's not like it's necessarily a world-reacher
It's a. Oh, a lot of phantoms. Yes. Yeah
Yeah, okay, can we talk about thunder phantoms? I'm going to talk about phantoms talk about phantoms
Phantoms are super super annoying if I could curse from the stream
And this is the time where I would do it, but I can't but anyways phantoms are annoying
Oh
So, Anthems have this stupid, I'm like,
punching my fists right now, stupid spawning mechanic,
where they can only start to spawn after the player
has not slept for one hour, and not sleeping
also includes not diet, because of course it does.
So, Anthems can't spawn before one hour,
and if you were to ever look at a tool assistant speedrun,
I'm not promoting myself here.
I don't have a fantastic task,
of my kind of all advancements that you should totally watch.
You can find it in the way it was for the last class.
Yes, I have made a time to go watch that immediately after the sentence of the room.
It's really good.
And you should also watch a VD Pineapple's VD Pineapple's class is really, really awesome.
So, um, the in the test, the first 25 minutes is doing all of the advancements.
And the next half hour is waiting for it to hit one hour so that the fans can spawn.
It's great, but it's annoying in speedruns, because it means
Anthem's are kind of annoying for in a two-hour run.
That is really spawn at night.
So they only have three nights to spawn and you have to get them.
And Pingu, this is very unlucky.
Pingu, the thunder ended and technically, during the daytime,
if it's thundering, mobs can spawn.
Which is why it's thunder phantoms. Normally phantoms only spot at night time, but it was thunderings
We got thunder phantoms
But then the thunder stopped and then it was daytime again, and then they burned
Today, which is very unfortunate
Shout out to our producer Richard if you want to go watch the past Richard is with the day in the chat here
You'll be
Yeah, phantoms are annoying, you need phantoms for a few things, obviously you have to kill
every mob, as we've been talking about, phantoms are one of them, there is a phantoms-specific
advancement called Thuberds Monaro, where you need a piercing crossbow and you have to kill
two phantoms with the same arrow shots.
This set up that we do for them, you can do it, you'll see it again later.
You put two phantoms in a boat, we pre-damage them, and then we shoot the arrow.
The pre-damage, unfortunately, because daytime made it so that they burned up and died
in New York.
And the last thing that you need phantoms for is phantom membrane, which is an item that
you can only get from phantoms, which is a lie.
You can also get it from cats sometimes.
But you can only get it from phantoms, and you can use it to brew a slow-falling potion.
And so falling, because it isn't a fact, is needed for how did we get here, which is where you need to get all of the effects.
Except you don't need to get all of the effects.
You need to get all of the all of the effects.
All of the all of the effects.
Have you mentioned that there's asterisks?
Some of the effects are more all effects than other effects.
Exactly, you've told me, I don't even need to be here anymore, frankly, I mean, I don't understand, I understand right now.
Yeah.
Yeah, it's probably, honestly, I'll start you off.
No, I was gonna ask, what are y'all thinking about these runners and their rounds that we're heading into, but we'll be the third hour so far.
Yeah, so I mean both runners have said we still need gold and because we're done with the ocean
on a pure like gold per minute
timer
getting gold from bastions is faster
So we're gonna be staying in the another
To be getting the rest of our gold block. So it's just the fastest way to do it and there's no more
Consistent as I think like a pretty big part of it as well because you can scan for bastions
You can't scan for monuments, but you can use the e-counter in your after menu, which we didn't ever talk about
but we're being used basically scanning for bastards.
We're able to find them a lot easier than on-gots.
Yeah.
Other thing is what I was just talking about with phantoms
is you have to manage your day and night cycles very well.
We talked about, you want to be in a snowy at night.
You want to be in a jungle in the day.
And you also want to be in the overall at night time
for phantoms bonds.
So right now, 147 is part of the day.
So the night time is 130 to 140 and it'll start again at 150 to two hours.
Those are the night times.
So in between those, we can be in another and we're not missing any phantom spawns.
And after we're done with our gold, we are going to make use of all of the TNT that we've been gathering.
Why are we gathering TNT?
That's a great question pack.
Why are we gathering TNT?
Now, all the parts of his family gathering TNT was because Oxy was just kind of struggling with the
the desert biome, but of course, we want as much TNT as possible, can, sorry. I don't know why I said that.
It was struggling with the desert biome. I can't remember how to get cats.
That's true. You're struggling. We were struggling getting cats. I didn't actually remember the reason why we were in the desert for so long.
So I kind of, I kind of just like left it off there in the hopes that you would fill in the details.
But we were certainly in a good case and we got a lot of TNT, but we want a lot of TNT.
It's fantastic to have TNT because one of the things that we need as we already mentioned previously is we need debris.
And debris is one of those things that's just really irritating to get.
It's another one of those RNG checks.
We talked about this with a lot of other things.
You could go zero for like 200 on skulls.
You can just never find gold blocks because you can't find any monuments.
There's a lot of RNG checks like that and one of those big ones is debris.
Debree is an OR, but unlike most of the ORs in the game, it spawns exclusively in another,
and generally speaking, you're only going to find it up low while levels in the other,
and it has to be varied, except for one of those in Braid, but we don't need to worry about that.
But generally speaking, it's always going to be varied, so you have to dig to get it.
So something that you see a lot of casual players do is you'll go down to like Y-15 in the
other, in the other, you know, when to ground, there's like lava lakes and stuff it's really annoying,
and you're just going to dig in a straight line and try to find debris.
Now of course that's slow. We don't want to do things that are slow as much as A players
love time loss. We don't love time loss that much. So we're going to try and do something
faster and the thing that we do faster is we blow up a lot of blocks with TMT deep underground
in the other. That's what we're going to see pretty soon from these players hopefully unless they
like intentionally do it later just to mess with me. We're going to see the players basically
digging a straight line for as long as they can usually like 110 to 300 blocks deep down in the
Another, then they're going to run back through it,
igniting TNT as they go.
And then they're going to run back through it again,
looking for the debris, debris veins, perhaps?
Goodness, I don't know why I said it like that.
Dupree veins that are going to be exposed
by the TNT blowing up.
Of course, another has a very low blasters offense.
So blowing up TNT is pretty efficient.
Some people, especially casual players,
will do the subbeds, but it's simply a lot faster
to do with TNT, because you can just run
and think about them as you're going.
Um, yeah, I think you was going to check this treasure bastion treasure bastions.
Do you have a chance at another act or sorry, another right in the tournament?
Chess and we do get one another right for a debris rather at the bottom,
which gets us to fit in the depths of the pantsman.
And what we need is doing you.
Hold it.
Sorry.
I finished my sentence before you even asked your question.
But yeah, we need another 19.
So in theory and total you need 24 of them.
I, for each one, basically you need four debris to make one
the right, never, never write goodness.
Why does every single thing that we're talking about?
It's really killing me.
No, it's fine.
You need four debris to make one,
never write ingot, and you need six,
never write ingot with the seed.
But because we already got a bridge hustrin,
which gave us the loadstone, which is one of those
another ingots, we don't need that one.
So we only need 20 debris to make our five
with another eight ingots.
That's a little bit clear.
And of course we've already got one of those.
So, droping it will need to find 19 more debris
if you get powder to another
and get into the overall to do the enemy.
Let's get out of the way into his going through another
right now or like inserting me.
It's like, right, need me.
How vast thing is going through another right now.
Just kidding.
Yeah, you got pretty used to this and you're kind of just
flying. You fly a lot in another, sometimes you die, especially when you're in
your neighborhood of a category, but over time you do pretty much to the speed
of what you need to go.
New players and players named Dessa Folder will die along at flying.
Yeah. Exactly. Exactly.
It's honestly, it's really fun to fly.
And if you've ever played those, like, what is it? Just like one very famous
map where you like fly with them all?
I try to have this song in my, like, there's a specific song in my too.
It's killing me.
Sure, someone in chat knows what I'm talking about.
Yeah, feel like you're maps.
Oh, my goodness.
That looks so good, too.
What is that electro map hold on?
I think not.
I think it was.
Well, you find that.
I'm going to answer a chat question here, which is how we're finding the gold in the
Bastion.
And like we touched on it for a little bit.
There are four of us in the name of it.
That's Tara's suit horse.
Yes, Tara's suit horse.
Oh my God.
It's not like such a cool map because they like made custom music just for the map.
like they're their box. The custom music they made for this Minecraft map are incredible.
It's a fantastic map. That was like five or six years ago. Yeah, speaking of the topic. What is
the topic? Yeah, but so the topic was, how do we find the goal in the bastions? So there's four
different bastion appearance. They are bridge, treasure, housing, and stables. And in any of them,
there are consistent locations where gold blocks can span for some of them, like bridge,
that chalice, 16 gold box, are always there.
And for other ones, such as the stables
and the tri-urusian, they have a chance to spawn.
But for all except for stables,
you are guaranteed at least some number of gold blocks.
They're reliable enough.
And it doesn't take too long to learn all the locations.
I believe learning gold block locations
is probably a day one activity, if you are.
Yeah, if you're not a lot.
I'm very interested in why I'll see, just like, took a haul and into the overall and
then back into this folder, please explain.
Yes, so you need a variety of monsters hunted to get the monsters hunted advancement.
And all of those monsters hunted is the zombie-fied homophied hoglin.
What are they hauled?
Is this a zombie-fied?
Is that the name of?
You got some reason that sounds wrong.
Yes, okay.
Zolafide Hoglin and Zolafide Hoglin,
there's no Zolafide Hoglin.
There's Zolafide piglins in the network
because there's no Zolafide Hoglin.
And so the way to get a Zolafide Hoglin
is to bring it into the overworld.
So something you'll see players doing at some point
during the run like we saw Oxie doing,
is you bring it a Hoglin into the overworld
and then you wait for the transition
into a Zolafide Hoglin.
And at that point you can kill it
and then you get another,
and essentially.
I see that makes sense.
I really like that.
And then I want to bring the attention back over to Pingu.
So Pingu is back in the old world.
And this is where we reach the final part of the run, the end again.
All of this is going to be set up for the big advancement.
How did we get here?
We'll go through each of these one by one.
The first thing I want to talk about is this another portal
and this redstone contraption that he's built.
We talked about this, I think,
I love this a little bit with the bees.
We put the bees in another and we make a trunkloader in the overworld.
And whenever we're in the overworld now, the bees in the other are going to be loaded.
And since bees in another work even at night, because they don't have labor laws in another,
we're going to be able to get our honey much faster.
Other than how do you roll?
So, let's check.
Other things we do in the end game.
We filter a beacon, that max beacon, that's what we got all of the gold blocks for.
And we are brewing a bunch of potions.
There's going to be eight potions in total that we're going to brew.
I don't want to list them all, but there's eight potions.
The beacon's going to give us two effects.
The conduit's going to give us an effect.
And we're going to go.
We're going to have to go now.
We're going to give us more facts.
A winner rose is going to give us more facts.
Combining all of those things will allow us to get how we get.
It's, it's, it's quite a sight.
What is this?
She's at that Oxy is doing right now where like,
she like herself on fire and then goes through a bunch of TNT
to explode things.
I'm like, so, so I think herself on fire is kind of an aura thing.
It's kind of an aura thing.
So Oxy likes to do like, some players are kind of not super flashy players.
But Oxy's one of those flashy players and it's just cooler if you're on fire
as you're like running through the, through the, through the,
I was like, like, I was just like,
I was like, did she accidentally die as she left the die?
And then she just runs through a bunch of TNT and I'm just like,
oh no, our players are players would never die.
I actually instructed them multiple times to not die during this run
because that would be very nice.
Thankfully they listened to me.
Thank you both of you.
Yeah.
I was going to bring that up earlier that once we get the
Electra, like I can stop panicking because up until that point,
if they died, it's just all bets are off.
like who knows what's even gonna happen anymore.
Fortunately, they both managed to be light red,
but man, I was very nervous in the early game of the straw.
Especially if all was happening to ping your gunnels.
Yeah, I'll see this finishing up on our debris split here.
We've got 11 mine already.
There's three green seater vests, right?
It is.
It's one woodest center vests?
Yeah, I'm the go.
Okay.
We'll have to talk about debris standardization
I'm not sure about that, it's okay.
It will be a good time, unfortunately.
It's pretty cool.
It's a bit of a bit more end game stuff.
I mean, okay.
So we have a goal, actually, sir.
We've heard of some, what were you going to another like, speel?
I think that made a time, I'll be fine, to do our second, all in the sprakes and thru
hitting pretty much the two-hour mark right here.
Runners can pause their games in a previous second.
to one.
Oh, right.
It's interesting.
It's a pause.
I'm not saying that that's fun.
Can you why are we doing this?
Why are you doing this to me?
Because I love you.
Oh, right.
So you can do your grand.
That's fun.
All right.
There again, we are in another wellness break here.
Folks, we're going to win.
This is the last wellness break of the night.
We're just going to win every hour with a longer
along around like this. And so with that being said we will be right back for the home stretch of this
Minecraft all in the instance race so please stay tuned we'll be right back.
Hello again everyone. My name is Oz Moran. We are back here with the last hour of this episode
of the scenic round. I'm so happy to be here with two amazingly talented runners and two
amazingly talented commentators as we are heading into the home stretch of this all advancements
race. Before I begin, I just wanted to let everyone know. If you want to appear on video
hot picture yourself, we are accepting a submission for all of the 7 submissions.
And if you've got to run the new public showcase on the channel, send it RAGDQ.jd
slash submit slash hot fix. All of us do look at those and we actually love all the runs
that people send it to these things. And so please have access to points submit in chat
for more details. With that being said, I'm very glad to be here and I just want to wish of course
everyone the final holiday here. The National Southern Food Day has a person who lives in the South
by itself. We have a lot of really different, and so you should try it. I promise you it's great.
But now, now that that's out of the way, we're going to go right back to the home stretch of
Minecraft all advancements. Random seed glitch is just 1.16 by Doypinger and Oxity. It's with
best hot folder and pattern at NBC on commentary. So y'all take it away.
Thank you. Let's get started in three, two, one, go.
And we're going. Yeah, we were interrupted here by phantom's right as we paused. So of course,
like, can you stillfully burn his phantom's early on? Thankfully, oh, gone more.
Just like, honestly, it's stillfully burning herself in this debris split.
You can also go to our place sometimes, so.
You're so true.
So one of the things about phantoms is you need to be above ground.
You need to have sky access to be able to spawn them.
And we kill the weather underground.
So, the view was going to do in a above ground,
whether or not to put on the fortunately.
I don't think it's going to do that anymore,
because we don't do the phantoms anymore.
We're also able to sleep now, because we got the phantoms.
Can't sleep before you get them otherwise you're ace at the timer.
Also, notably, you can't die before you get phantoms because dying also resets the timer.
And I know we had a couple of questions in chat earlier. What happens if the player is die?
It's horrible. It's awful. It's completely terrible.
It's so, it would be so over. You don't even know how over it is.
Look up the definition of over and you see dying in an A, A, A, a speedrun.
Yeah, at this point you see a gaping of light that's tough for their debris failed
Yes, why does not fall to debris fail look it up?
I great great gift and yeah, you reset that right?
That's just the way is the weather so on pink is gonna you've got the weather and we've actually got a fish captive
The fish is going to
Experience no pain during this process is what I'm gonna yes one of that's true, but that's what we're gonna go with
You need a with a rose to get the weather effect
That's not true, but it's a consistent entity way to get it.
So we use the Wither Rose in the how to be set up, which means we sacrifice our salmon
to the Wither Overlord before promptly cut into pieces.
Now, it's another story.
It's another story.
It's one of the Wither Culls mob's, it spawns the Wither Rose where they die.
So that's what we think of.
So I don't know how I expected the Wither Rose to be under ground, one B1 hand-to-hand combat face-to-face,
like that post to each other.
Yeah, so you show some of them above ground and let them fly around and shoot them with a bull.
She told me that I was really stupid and then we stopped doing it.
It took a little bit of convincing.
Somebody might have even made a comparison video showing how much slower that was.
But, yeah, it took a little bit of doing, but we finally got the full community to
underground with her, I think.
I don't think anybody does the background with her anymore.
And then here is our, I guess you would call, I think this is probably the glitchiest glitch
that we do in this run, which is not a major glitch, which is not a breaker of the scenic
route tomorrow.
It's like a well done glitch, you could say, right?
Yeah, yeah.
So, the way the beacon works is very weird, and you're not supposed to be able to get
Trump boosts and haste at the same time.
But if you click on the buttons in the right order,
it lets you get both of them, and we abuse that fact.
We also have a cow in the middle, which is great.
I'm sure that Pigland's got very hungry.
Because they live on a diet of only pork.
And as we've talked about, well, we've talked about
well done glitches before.
I don't know if you do well done on a pork chop,
but you need some steak.
Well, I mean, like, they're just not getting vegetables.
And although that seems to work for a lot of all
advancements players, for actual humans,
I think that's like pretty bad for your diet.
Ooh, I don't know if they're going to be easy.
So I'm going to get condensed on like real fun.
Thank you, thank you.
I want to talk about this debris.
So as we noticed,
if you did this endgame setup,
and then is now doing debris,
while Oxidia is doing things the other way around.
She did the pre-first, and is now doing the endgame setup.
I think we do this because of course we need to plant them, but it does show the flexibility and the non-miniarity in the run.
So you can, as long as you have your TNT, you can choose to do debris whenever you want to.
And this is a very common thing where people will do debris first or do debris after endgame.
I'm like, I'm going to say it's 50-50, but it's very common for it to be frontloaded or backloaded accordingly.
I would say it's you always want to do it first if you can like it is a better thing to do it earlier
It's just that like I'll as you say it's very frequent then player so be like hey
In this run in this situation it makes sense for me to do it like here
But both these players will be doing it before the end game
I think well, I don't know but I'll set you up
So I think you obviously is drinking
I'm sitting all over you. I did that's a good point. I did I didn't see that too. We were talking about it earlier
And I said it. Yeah
Well, speaking of endgame.
Wait, when is time for this front hand?
Time for this run will end.
You'll see the timer in game stop automatically.
Middle end when we get the 80th advancement.
It'll pop up in the chat.
It'll be very jolly.
It's when that's about to happen.
Yeah.
Usually this happens in the end, the end dimension,
which is appropriately named.
When we re-summer in the end or drag in.
I can and one that happens you'll see it and there's a big animation that plays and then it'll go kaboom
and that'll be the last advance in the world.
Five.
That's not the case here.
One.
Right.
Because I don't think either these players have breath.
So one of the advancements that players used to get a lot of in the early game.
Well used to get frequently in the early game is I don't have to remember the advancements
Sam.
What's the one for Dragon's Breath?
You need a minute.
Thank you.
So it's an investment called Unie-Dement and Unie-Dement is when you use a empty bottle to collect a dragon's breath.
Now the thing is that these players are both went for zero cycle and then zero cycle, which is a very hard and difficult strategy, the dragon doesn't fireball you.
If it does, it usually means that you've messed it up. So there will be a fireball and that means neither of them got Unie-Dement, which means they're both going to have to release some of the dragon in order to get it to fireball them.
So that they can get a mint, which will be like a minor time loss of, I think it's like
three seconds, something I thought, which will usually be the last of Banspen.
And these newer runs with a faster case, because players are now very consistent during
zero cycle of players didn't use to do that.
A lot of players still don't do that in all of Banspen.
It's one of those any percent strategies that kind of isn't fully percolating into
it, just because it's so hard.
like it's like at different level of difficulty to a lot of the stuff that you
you need for an any percent split. So the art is a faster to get that advance way you
need to make on the first time you use something to underdog him. Technically there is a
way and when you watch the sounds you will see this, we do get breath during the zero cycle.
It is not consistent in any way a shape or form that I don't know how to amend it. And fun
In fact, I'm not good enough at the game to do that myself, so I actually had an oxity
at record that part of the task for me.
Yeah, because it's your cycle extremely difficult to try to g.
And so is doing debris as you're seeing on piping a screen, but these players are both
very, very consistent, and so they can execute this your cycle quite consistently.
Something that's worth noting, you did ask, like, is that faster slower?
Because yours, like, I think technically is slower than the fastest insta perch?
That's incorrect, right? Yeah. So like if you get really lucky, it's actually slower to do zero cycle.
But in Minecraft, generally speaking, especially in AA, but overall these days in Minecraft, people value consistency, more than they value
The value consistency, especially in the end game of the run, more than they value like the highest of higher high rolls,
the chance of getting in the switch are pretty low, so it's better to just go for the zero cycle, kill the driving distance possible.
Don't rest like a three, four, five minute end fight.
and then do the do need you need a bunch of men later, essentially. Is that still true with
two of the two? I'm pretty sure it is. Because it is. Incoming first, I think it has been
near out for a while. Yeah, the M5 in brob. I heard about you. No, like the fall of the world,
it's a thousand dead. Okay, maybe zero is faster. Yeah, I'm gonna if you're doing like, I mean,
I think you'd bow to your powers.
I didn't have no idea what to do.
Did the task one cycle, or the task fight?
Well, I mean, in 121, everybody, but yeah.
Anyways, there's a lot of ways to kill an underdry,
and that's a turn out.
So, many things to talk about.
I'm just a concern.
I like to tell you, relevance to this year.
So, once we have, once we have our beacon setup,
For conduits set up, our potions are done brewing.
I'm waiting on the next city here to get a B cycle.
You see honey level on the after screen says four.
Let's see, it's the five. We can harvest it.
And then we're going to go leave.
And we're going to go to the outpost.
You'll see. Do I ping you? Is that an outpost right now?
I'm going to kill.
I'm sorry.
We're going to kill this guy with a banner on his head.
And he's going to give us some advancements.
He's also going to give us an effect called bad omen.
which is going to let us start a raid when we go to a village and when we go to a village
and beat the raid, it would be very cool. The waves are going to spawn in. We're going to use
TNT to try to paint stick over the waves as soon as I spawn in, hopefully. And it'll go very
quickly. But we need to win a raid to get the hero of the village advancement and to get the
hero of the village effect. And then we go back and we have to get the battle and effect a second time.
So that's the first step of getting the effects or how to be getting.
We've done a bunch of setup, but now we're actually in the process of doing the advancement.
And so there's going to be five waves of this raid because there's both need to do normal raid.
The reason you do normal raid enough easy raid is because although you need an effect from completing the raid,
which you can get even if you do an easy raid,
on normal raids, which spawn two more waves in easy waves, five and so
three. You get the evoker in the last wave, and that's the model that you need to kill,
and you also need to spawn in the Voxes, that's a new evoker can do, only an evoker can do,
in fact, unless you have chance enabled, I suppose. And kill one of the Voxes, and of course
the drop of the evoker is the totem of a dying, and once you have a totem of a dying,
you can get another advancement, which is, I don't know, close more though, but basically,
post-mortal. Thank you. Which you need to activate the total number.
So...
Oh my, what is it? I've never seen a before.
This is a ravisher. It's a ravisher.
Interesting. Yeah. It's a big, big guy.
I guess it's model after a rhinoceros slash elephant's type of deal.
Very tanky, very annoying. This is why we like to do debris before the raid.
debris, another right armor, has an extra benefit of reducing knockback taken and ravagers are annoying
because they push you back so much and it makes it annoying to kill them.
They actually got oxygen in a different village here. Looks like a laser village.
Sleeping mid-red. I don't know if I would call this a nicer village, but we'll see.
Yeah, sleeping mid-red really useful because you don't want those nighttime mobs
is spawning on you during the raid,
but also because you have to wait for the next raid
to spawn, and Pingu is gonna need to sleep anyways
to do a hundred years.
So it's actually a really cool little overlap
that you did there.
Interesting, that's nice.
That raid, that's not great, or it is not like,
can you write up?
Yeah, so this guy is the evoker,
so as you can see he drops that ton of undying,
and also spawns in these little backstings.
They're so annoying, and they're gonna fly around,
but can you finally kill some of them?
And that is almost all of the mobs that we're going to need to kill other than I believe
undermights and guardian.
Yeah, we're like 30 pearls.
Yeah, we discussed this early in the run that Pingu had kept the pearls on him and is
storing them throughout the run, trying to get that endermate to spawn.
But unfortunately, as we discussed earlier, you can just get unlucky and Pingu just got lucky.
So we still need more pearls. We're going to get those in the end and later on.
Fun fact, the player that I had play the seed to make sure
was good enough.
Snakesy, he did actually end the run with endermites,
not with breath.
So not super surprising, right?
Well, it's probably still like it as well.
Forosha.
Yeah, I think it was one the raid.
So now we're going back.
We're getting to add a moment again.
Once we get to add a moment the second time,
we have to be pretty careful.
Because if you were to fly into a village again,
you would start another raid.
We don't want that.
So we have to avoid villages while we're flying
for the rest of the us around here.
And after we get this, we're going to go to a monument.
The monument has other guardians and other guardians
are going to give us a mining fatigue.
And mining fatigue is where the timer really starts ticking.
Here of the village, you get the effect for an hour
and 40 minutes.
And at Omen, you get four, one hour.
So those timers are kind of irrelevant.
going to be done within an hour, but that is my name fatigue. Only last for five minutes.
So as soon as we go to the monument, we get my name fatigue or we're hurrying.
And it does happen sometimes that players kind of like miss something or something goes too
slow and you run out of fatigue, but almost never to these top players. So we're pretty confident
that once we get fatigue, we're going to be seeing the end of the run in terms of the
this big advancement we're writing for within five minutes. So very excited to see that on
both of these players screens here and pack and I did discuss previously the idea of being quiet
and letting the runners focus while they're doing how do we get here but considering that we have
two attempts to get how to get here done and finish the run I don't think we really need to do that.
I think we can just talk especially on how. What do you think? I'm more than happy to continue to talk.
So they love yapping on the show. That's one thing.
And so Pingu here is sitting above the monument.
Getting the mining fatigue effect is random.
There it is. You see the little ghost.
It is guaranteed within one minute.
Yes. So there's a random offset per Eley Guardian.
And then it repeats every minute.
They'll try to give you a mining fatigue.
Then we're going to get it off in.
So we lead it off in.
And we're going to take this kind.
We're going to kidnap them.
Just like we took that shoker.
All those two hours ago.
If you took that shoker back to spawn.
Now we're going to steal this dolphin and take in just one.
Yep.
And we're going to combine our def strider boots and the dolphins grace.
The fact that dolphin gives us to storm really fast there and make it really easy to fly out of the water with the dolphins still on the lead.
I don't know if we ever discussed flying mobs.
We saw some interesting things with ping-pong flying donkeys earlier in the sea, but we don't need to get back into that.
But we're going to fly the dolphin and it won't take any fall damage as long as we successfully pull it through the conduit water.
The reason of course that we need a dolphin is because it gives you dolphins and grace while you're swimming
We're then you know splash all of our potions
And then we are going to get our inventory set up. You need a couple of things to eat
I'm gonna get hit by the shoulder. I'm gonna shoot ourselves in an arrow. Just don't let you watch it here
Yeah, no.
Yeah, sugar shots, arrow shots, eat puffer fish, eat stew, eat fish,
pull an apple, incredible, and how do we get here?
And speaking of how do we get here?
We should get ourselves over to watching Oxity inside of the screen,
because Oxity is also going for how do we get here?
I think, I'm not really 100% sure what's going on.
We're having some trouble with it.
I don't know. I thought I saw you flying back and forth, but I see you don't have a...
I did. I like I started flying the ball.
You all lost it with my new figure?
Okay, that makes sense.
I'm going to do it very slowly.
That would have been funny.
We've never seen anybody do that, especially in the draft tournament.
Well, this is new overlap.
I've never seen incredible overlap.
It's just a situation and going through the portal the same time.
And can you is raring up for the end of the sea?
to see the foot, so as I'll sit here, can I be honest?
Can I be frank here, Pat van?
Yeah, go ahead.
And I'll sit, Pat van, I can't stand it strange.
It is incredible to me that these players
are literally neck and neck here in the sea.
This is like, they're like, what, like a minute?
Two minutes apart, max?
That's with it.
With it in two minutes.
And they did such different things.
I didn't miss the best one.
Well, we can still track for a suite, I don't know about that.
That's true, that is your best.
If you just let a ping-due win, then you don't have to do the mess, so you can just pretend
that you didn't have it.
I think you might as well try to do that.
That's exactly the actual thing that's telling you, but it's timing me back, sure.
Anyways, let's let Oxidia get out of here, and then mean time, ping-due is going to
re-sign on the underdry in here with these before end crystals.
It's going to start shooting beams into the sky and while all that happens, that takes
30 seconds that's a set time. We are going to throw some pearls and hopefully get an end
of my time. Sometimes soon. Yeah. Of course, Pack would ever choose a bad seed. This
seed was approved by Snake Sea. Oh, wait, the flopping dolphin. One of the many ways to
lose an all-vance of seed is to have your dolphin decide it just doesn't want you to
give you grace anymore, which is referred to as being a flopper dolphin. Really enjoy
Awkward, but I don't know if any of my damn ideas are going on.
And now I'm sitting right there, I guess, how do you get here, incredible,
both players get how to get here.
Now your player is finished the run yet.
Partially thanks to these approaches.
And they're my rates.
Coming out from the seed that was approved by snakes to you.
Huge shout-ups to snakes to you, by the way,
for testing out the seeder.
So these players can have this enjoyable experience.
Yes, share with the class.
Okay, so oxity is officially paced locks.
That's awesome, so fun.
It's fun, yeah.
So your life is free as well.
It's okay.
Husk is one of the hostile moms that we need to kill.
It's stray, but in the desert, it's a zombie variant.
And it needs to be night time for it to spawn.
It is crumpling new.
So we're going to have to wait a couple of minutes before that happen.
What could there still some stuff that we need to do including this endermight business so it won't be that bad and
The timer stops from wiping you
Has successfully completed
That is time for driving go
GG's
Exit it only another two behind at most
Which we could say we could attribute that time loss purely to the channeling book the drope
I think you luckily happen as a team.
Honestly, yeah, that honestly is probably true.
I forgot to grab my bees.
That's two and a half minutes off of putting things
which are two times that's really good.
Yeah, there's a thing to see.
Thanks.
If you want to see more all the advancements
content at a very fast pace,
that's the folder and I are co-hosting a tournament called
draft that we are going to be streaming with this very weekend. It's going to feature
blocking you in Oxity as well as many other all events and speedrunners. It's
a event and if you want to check out more all events and contents, you're
working welcome to check that out. It's like this but much faster
pace, essentially everyone's are closer to ours. Yeah, it's a bit of two hours and
17 minutes, it'll be one hour and 17 minutes.
I believe you can check out the trailer or the link to the website in the pinned message
in Twitch, Sharon.
Do we want to wait for our city to finish here?
Do we want to wrap things up?
What are we, what are we, what are we, what are we, we can, we still, you know, basically.
Awesome. We still have that as well.
Well, I said, it's as finishing.
Uh, she just hooked up the rest of the boat in T-he-he.
Beautiful.
We still have a room for like 31 minutes.
She can be fantastic.
This is like a really nice long room booking.
It was hard to come by.
Exactly.
This has been a really, really enjoyable run.
Um, but can you do one?
How do you feel after this after this performance?
Can't today.
It is a good race. I mean, let's see if the Phantom's was on my fault, but other than that, I played well.
I finished the run like last night. I was a 2, 22 on a random seat, so it's cool to get us a lot of time in a race.
You've been very nice.
Well, it looks like, uh, off to the end of the M now.
Yeah, yes.
You're the still taking it.
We're going to end the M.
Sorry, that was the end of the M.
Also hostile.
I'm going to stare at a bunch of end of the M.
I realize, and anger them into this pit.
So I'm going to get a little bit of a tracker.
Uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh.
I mean, I think it's looking back at me. I didn't get a Vx kill. Oh
Wait, really
It's great. I guess you just did this one and they were like harassing you was
Well, okay
You're tracker muscle very interesting. I you've got a husk Vx great view and their minds. Well, it's fun
Yeah, I guess the house goes in really a big deal after all
I think we're not going to be waiting for Oxie to finish the run if we need a pair of sex.
We can't.
We can.
I mean, yeah.
If we have the time, we must.
I mean, I think we should also leave it up to the two of you.
How much do you want to go to battle this point?
That's just you, but if you want to go to sleep, that's okay.
No, I got your time.
We're just on that side here.
I could leave it on any point.
We are, we, we, we, we're still like 38 minutes to even the estimate here.
And so honestly, like, we can stay here for as long as you all need.
If we need to like cut it off or like Mercy Hill, we will be very satisfied.
I'm sorry.
I'm sorry.
I'm sorry.
No, we'll be okay.
Oxius Nesson.
This is a good dinner on.
Yeah, this is a good dinner on.
Yeah, this is a good lunch.
Yeah, no.
So I guess I'll bring this up just because I want to.
I don't know where it happened for the first time, but I was watching her stream and I was like,
hey, if we got a great view, this is like an hour later, like in the overworld.
And then it happened a second time, I don't know if it was the same day or the same stream or
whatever, but it happened a second time and very close succession.
And I was like, wow, you do this a lot.
And then ever since I said that, I think I cursed her.
And now she brings us over half of the time,
I'm honestly gonna say it.
Personally, my head cannon is that it's intentional.
My head cannon is that it's intentional.
It's a best.
She's doing it just to mess with you personally, Apac.
I think that's what it is.
But like we're losing like a whole minute.
Hey, go ahead.
I was moving.
And you wanna talk more about the training
that you're hosting?
What format is it?
What more can you learn about this video?
Oh my goodness.
Right.
So we're going to be running with this same RNG
Synuization mod, except with a couple other boosts as well as filtering
CED as we gave to the runners today, except a little better.
The main idea of the tournament is we want very fast,
paste a game pilot.
We said we're aiming for close to one hour runs.
The way we do this is what's called draft.
draft. We've got drafts. There's a bunch of items that you can draft in your run, kind of like
if you were doing like a fantasy football league, you could draft players, here you can draft
advancements or other items. Like you could draft, you know, a diamond pickaxe or a trydons
or you could draft advancements, like like a complete catalog and then you don't have to do
any of the cats. So it's a competitive format. Like you can have a room with people in them.
you draft against each other, you start with these bonuses at the beginning of the run
and they take out a chunk of things that you normally have to do but you no longer have to do
in the run. And then it speeds it up. They're very fast-paced which makes them very exciting to watch
and then a folder. What else would you like to say?
I don't know. Should I just go find my script from the first trailer?
You were one of the, yeah, I mean, I was just really nice of you to the script, but I do like the sound
of that kind of format of a 20, especially if you're looking for runs that are like
in-hour, that's very fast. Yes. A game play.
Everybody thought it was exactly like why was created? The entire format was basically me
in packed talking going, hey, what would we have to do to make all advancements a
turn-in-bibble format? Yeah, because doing two and a half hours runs is just not feasible
for an entire event. It would just take too long.
Yeah, when we're all like adults that have other responsibilities, that's kind of the
ask between half hours every time, at a time.
And we do have the draft one turning the limit.
Because that's true.
Yeah.
I don't know the answer of the hot fix race.
I thought you were going to say the loser of drafts for his turn, but that's it.
I did notorious for coming back from the dead in the first ever draft tournament using her
totem of undying to make it straight into the finals and beat Fimburg 2 to 0 in a gripping
best of the way that took place last May, honestly one of the most incredible series
ever.
one
help speak speaking of I remember I think the game of the run we started a production about
who's going win the race starting New York City at
um... the opening of believers are passing out big right now
oh yeah
oxy
that is true house I'm almost now
they have a favorite
it seems it's such yeah
what?
oh 70% you were 70 to 30 it was 70-30
why?
that's cool
you're going to go for the
The total pot was 393,000 points to do it.
And 939,000 points to get almost a million points.
It is.
You guys, I'm sorry, I guess.
That's completely why.
A lot of people just lost their house.
Kingu is offended.
Like, Kingu is a better runner.
Oh, you come.
A lot of people just lock their ass.
Yeah, I don't know.
