As Kosmic once said "It came about the same way new tricks usually do in these games: one day we just decided we're gonna do what the TAS does"
-
Summoning Salt the type of guy to make 1 framerule of timesave seem like the culmination of everything humans have achieved throughout our millions of years of history
-
14:33 Imagine spending tens of thousands of hours practicing every movement and mastering every skip to become one of the greatest Super Mario Bros players of all time only for some random dude on Discord to say "Bro, why are you using the slower method?"
-
The whole "Devil's Spell" thing is a good example of how a lot of things aren’t known to Western players because of the language barrier with Japanese communities. Now there is some more collaboration but in general, it still happens quite often.
-
I can’t believe this story has the three greatest speedrunners of the game in the world encountering a mysterious man named Eden who bestows upon them the Ancient Scrolls, revealing the forbidden Devil’s Spell technique.
-
Two videos in less than a month is an unbalievable gift we will gladly appreciate
-
Can't believe SS took 48,000 attempts at the framerule explanation just to save his viewers some time. That's why he's the goat
-
Someone called "Eden" telling everyone about a trick called "Devil's Spell" is some crazy biblical level shit.
-
I really like how he realized that a lot of his viewers know whats a framerule is and was just, "Let's have a little bit of fun."
-
Big fan of these smaller-in-scope videos. Spending more time on one trick makes the run easier to follow and the history more appreciable
-
Imagine the two fastest players in the world hanging out when they suddenly hear “I can’t understand why are you so slow”
-
This video has such a finality to it, with the runner literally achieving TAS level perfection. Barring a new discovery, the WR on this level will never change.
-
“Sometimes magic is just someone spending more time on something than anyone else might reasonably expect.” - Raymond Teller
-
imagine the absolute savage mad lad who just up and asks the worlds top mario speedrunners "y u going so slow"
-
How you can make an incredible video about a 30 second level in a game that 99% of people haven’t played and it still be amazing is incredible in itself, congrats.
-
18:12 "Discovery" feels like how Columbus "Discovered" America, the Japanese community knew about it the whole time lol
-
“Bismuth’s got nothing on me” has to be my favorite Summoning Salt quote
-
23:30 Using the channel’s unofficial theme for a comedic bit is brilliant, you can tell he had so much fun making this one.
-
26:40 ...and had to go back to setting world records. Poor guy. Such a hilarious way to put it. XD
