De(ku) javu!

Can I steal this and put it in chat?

Sure :)
---

Wait, did he die in deku tree? I'm late to the run

He failed a trick and reset without having saved prior
---

so 100% doesnt need compasses and stuff and no chicken I guess?

Bottle RBA is allowed but you must obtain 4 bottles from their source

Routing this run seems ridiculous

The two Punch-Out games at the same time was amazing, and if this is also the blindfold-guy then he needs to be a GDQ Hall of Famer.
---

It is blindfold guy

Put him on a trophy then.
---

What are the 3 extra hearts exactly in Ocarina of Time?

Seem to be Heart Pieces that can only be obtained via a glitch so you were never intended to get them.

This has been my least watched GDQ since SGDQ 13 when I found out about the event during the bonus stream days.
---

Ha, they shortened Breastickles name to BT

How does that third one even exist?

Legend of Zelda no up A is up.

Let's go.

And, of course, we have Cantaloupe on the couch

This Warcraft 3 run is the only run I have had to mute because the commentary is that obnoxious.

Diablo run was fun. That guy is so hyper

And I enjoyed canvas curse last night. Commentary was occasionally difficult to hear/understand, though.

Somebody's laugh is both as joyous and as annoying as I've heard in a long time.
---

"proving that girls can beat dark souls" why was that donation even read?
---

This dude is a great runner
---

This is an amazing run
---

I knew bloodborne would be good but yeah this run in particular has been really entertaining
---

This is one of the most entertaining runs I've ever seen in speed running.

Subscribing to this guy's channel.

Also, he made them FUCKING BANK!!!!

I believe 300,000, correct if wrong.

I am okay with this run going over estimate

Came here to post this verbatim.

yeah if any run is to go over a soulsbourne game is forgiving, especially with the runner being as high quality as he was

wow that seems like a lot but then again this is a guy with so much charisma he can get the audience hyped about ladders so I guess it's not too surprising
---

It was $1.213M at the beginning of DS3 and it's $1.447M right now as I type, so that's definitely wrong.

Found the beginning of BB, it was $1.358M at that time.

Really?

Where did all the money come from then?

Last I checked it was 1.1
---

Couldn't tell you, I hadn't been watching most of the day. But it was in the low $1.1M area at the end of Kirby Canvas Curse, which I happen to know because my Twitch on my PS4 still had that up for a sec when I turned it on.

So maybe the LoZ race? The no up and A?
---

1.5 million!
---

$1.5 million get
---

Nice to hear they reached their goal.
---

We're still about 30k ahead of last year

Dowside is that Undertale brought in a lot of money last year, but the upside is this marathon will last 2.5 hours longer so BotW won't need to outdo it.
---

I'm not sure why Andy is putting off the back half of desert.
---

I'm not either

He got a green potion off the ledge, so it's not an issue of magic consumption, and Fire Rod is the most comfortable weapon to kill that boss with.
---

so Andy wins now right
---

Based off finding the hammer before Christos?

Not really.
---

Andy's gambling on Mire and it is so far not paying off at all.
---

Meanwhile, Christos is basically just chain-clearing crystals here, and it's working out for him.
---

yeah Andy seems in a worse spot now

is the big net necessary at this point or is that superfluous
---

bug net rather
---

The bug net is mostly superfluous. However, it does make the Agahnim fights a lot easier, because it's a lot more forgiving than the hammer for reflecting his attacks
---

Christos just played legit the most difficult fight in the game (Swordless/Bowless Vitreous)

Props to him
---

barring a death can Andy even win now? seems like theyre mostly on the same route now but hes down a boss
