So apparently there’s been a couple mixups and confusion regarding a couple things, which is understandable, so figured I’d clear up a couple things.
- All the runners took on our runs at the same time, not one after the other. We all went our separate ways and did our own runs at roughly the same time and made our own strats at roughly the same time.  Some people are faster at making videos than others, so it may seem like everything is desynced but trust me, we all ran it at the same time.
- The video is written from SOLELY the perspective of my run. Because #1 it would be a jackass move to spoil other people’s videos, and #2 it would ruin the entire point of the finale of the whole competition.
- There’s a reason that I frame things with a sense of Ambiguity when I say things like “world first” because again, we don’t want to spoil the final project. We’ll all see what happens when it all comes to a close 😁

Hope that helps with some of the confusion on things

Once again, it's so interesting to see where every contestant approach differs. Sure late game there's not that much variation but I've seen quite a bit of variety in how everyone started the run so far. And of course... the 4 kings one-shot. That's one hell of a milestone in and of itself. Not to mention that not only is it that anyone at all managed to figure a way to do it, but that multiple people discovered this independent of each other over a decade after the game's release. That's a thing of beauty

It's so cool seeing everyone solve the same obstacles in their own unique ways. Nice run, and congrats

once 4 people oneshot the 4 kings they become the new 4 kings

Great vid! I was really excited to see your run and it didnt disappoint 😊

That 4 kings spawn location trick was crazy man, hats off.

Meaty Jesus did the same strategy for the 4 Kings. Idk if any other runner did it too but still impressive you came to that conclusion as well!!

I can hardly wait for the Backlogs video.

Another Dragon King Greataxe enjoyer, I see! GG, great run

About the blood stain you where curious about: when you enter the boss room, the game loads a separate map underneath the room you actually stepped in, this is room copy’s the data from the room above and extends the room out quite long, you picked up your bloodstain in the boss room but not the actual boss room meaning your actual blood stain was in the actual boss room still, sorry if that was confusing but tldr game tricks you into thinking your somewhere else and then gets confused about your bloodstain data

Imagine one-shotting Four kings only to mess up the one shot on one dark knight, eliminating a point

Ive watched like 5 other youtubers do this run and im not stopping

That 4 kings kill was insane. And also i think we can all give you credit you went at Manus for 10 hours. I think you deserve a medal or something.

When the world needed him most…HE RETURNS

It may only seem like a single video, but man, this is a culmination of one wild summer. Weeks of planning, the run proper up to THE BOIS, and then the editing grind. It feels like a great final chapter to it all. It was great to be there, and I can't wait for The Low Level One Shot (Dark Souls 2: SotFS) Challenge.
Or DS3, whichever comes first.

Pinwheel, new mesuring unit 🤣😭💀

I've seen the Backlog's video maybe half a year ago and I was like "Whoever found that Fire Surge strategy must've felt so great."...
And now, almost half a year later I get to see your POV. Truly a masterpiece of a video.

The Kingdom hearts music fit so perfectly, god I love it.
anyway, love how you gave the history of this run! Especially because I...didn't know it lmao Great video!

Just wanted to come over from The Backlogs crowd to say congratulations on completing the run! You earned yourself a follow from me, with hopes it lessens the 6033 PTSD (You're number 4. First Baron, then JK, Doom Wolf and now yourself all emotionally scarred by Manus. Foreshadowing for the other runners?). But honestly, you 1000% deserve that 4 Kings kill, you owned it my dude! Do we have to wait for Lemon's Leaderboard to find out the winner?

24:58 - "the Firebomb Goddess"
I see what you did there. 🤣
