I _believe_ ghosts and clouds exist on a separate layer of enemy spawn events, so non-flying enemies cannot replace them.

Not an easy seed, super close. Had to be one of those that you feel you’re super behind only to find out your neck and neck.

at around 44:00 i did the invicible glitch. If you cast Barrier / Aura (In my case Aura) first and then add another 4 Spells that have a buff/debuff effect (Like Defend, Regrowth, Pixie Dust) you overwrite the First Spell (Aura) which makes it permanently active. I was checking my inventory several times if i was able to do the glitch beforehand but i wasn't able to pull it off until around 43:45 into the run. In my case i did: Aura (Make it permanent) Shield (It's a defense buff) Regrowth (Healing over Time) Pixie Dust (Revive) Reflect (Magic Repell) As i said, this way Aura stays active all the time. I butchered the Spell casts a bit when i did it here.

Forgot to add: This is not part of any "Cheats allowed" Settings or anything in the randomizer. The invicibility glitch always works, no matter what settings the seed has.

I would've been very upset if the winner didn't win as I feel a very similar thing happened in a recent race. Although I may have been going for this race's runner up. If that's the case, damn. The flavour of this seed was very interesting though.

@@thecrashtestgenius1 lol. I am heavily enjoying binging this series tho. I've loved Slime Rancher for a long time and I've never been able to play it. I get frustrated while watching, but that's only because I've realized I DO NOT have gamer instincts AT ALL. I always get irritated when people climb on stuff or try to clip through parts of the map, cause that's not how the game is meant to be played! But Slime Rancher is different-- it very much encourages you to go climbing and scaling absolutely everything in sight and within reach, as that's the only way to find all the treasure pods and Gordo slimes. It's very interesting watching a game that encourages movements that go so against my instincts lol. Can't wait to finish up this binge and see more of your content!

Yeah, Pyano used 2 walnuts on sprite after the revive, so that's why he got 99 MP back. Also, IMO level 2 Evil Gate is like, low-300's damage starting if you do Evil Gate x2 + MP Absorb cycle, but is worth doing if the runners wanted to kill in one cycle.
