Thanks for Watching :)

Upon finishing off this video, Lep has finally beaten his time with a 31:52!  These two runs are close to identical so fortunately the video is still 99% accurate.

Huge congrats to Lep for this achievement!

As a hollow knight player/speedrunner, I admire that you said “Mantis claw is ALMOST required”.

beating silksong and then beating hollow knight for the first time has made me question where tf ive been for the last 8 years.

Speed running seems like torture. I respect those who do it because I’m assuming that means you have a uniquely high love for the game you speed run in.

"you know that bug who entered dirtmouth like 31 miniutes ago, well he just defeated the hollow knight"

Lore accurate knight:

Love how precise this run is. Calculating everything down to the single geo really says a lot about the skill level required to even attempt any%

2:32 YOU CAN DO THAT??

“And promptly kills it in 1 second”

Me who died to it twice: ☹️

NKG, Pure Vessel, and Absolute Radiance: Allow us to introduce ourselves

I misread the title as "30 seconds" and almost shit myself from fear

Are we going to talk about the fact that the two runner-ups are Lepfan and Lepfoe?

I've only finished the game once and have very little knowledge about speedrunning, but your editing and narrating made it simple to understand and enjoyable to watch 10/10

15:35 first three names are funny, Lep is clearly the goat

8:10 this requires frame perfect timing for every single input, so doing it across the entirety of blue lake is insane

I just finished hk with 80 hours and am pretty new to the community… wtf

It’s speedrunners that got me into the game in the first place. And here I am years later, learning their routes, and taking on the hardest challenges that the game has to offer.

Amazing video, hollow knights speedrun is very complicated, and you showed it off perfectly. Keep up the good work

It's only 63.5 hours faster than me though.

5:37 it took him 17!! Seconds to kill hornet
