[@OmarBaig-n4f]

Now that I'm picking up speedrunners again, and watching this freaking amazed me on how fast you can go.

This is insane m8 like you popped off right there like your movement was clean rather 47:05

[@itsSport]

bensen my goat that was insane at 51:20 im so excited to see where you g o in life, very far i must say

[@Jay-c11]

The ultimate item spam on city run

[@mrtoast244]

Bensen's recovery at 47:07 was the most robotic gameplay I've ever seen, literally light speed

[@CorwinJHarris]

That dude is “Rather” good.

44:35 incredible rocket

[@lazygamemaster748]

This was super great. Fast players, high skill, good maps. But the skip that killed Rather for taking intended path almost turned me off the whole video

[@Tucans]

Man I miss playing this game with the boys

[@JAP2069]

How do u even get this fast

[@Myddo]

Rather too stronk. WP both

I thought youtube video player was speedup but then I realized that the music is normal

[@danger2236]

cool match, just wish that there was commentary

[@coolgreenbot7368]

Bro sometimes it looks like they are glitching

[@velocitytournaments2484]

The coding of the game is quite poor when it comes to reading movement at high speeds unfortunately

Nope, this is normal

kind of, but it had been made clear that they are trash-talking and they aren't actually harrassing each other. It's just to play the mental game.

[@joaovitao7823]

All then i see, is two guys using items for win, and not winning with your speed, and the game is call "speedrunners", this is the magic of the game, who gets more speed=win. And no who gets box in the slope=win, items are so trash bro

[@javiehr]

nah you just gotta learn how to dodge the items

[@lazygamemaster748]

Items are another method of skill expression. There is an argument to be made that the game expresses enough skill to remove the items from play, but that doesn't seem to be the argument ur making.... seems like you just don't want to learn the item game.

[@guilhermemoretti2616]

Ae joao vitão, o jogo tem um limite possivel de velocidade, quando se sabe o mapa todo igual eles, sem um item o jogo seria exaustivo

[@danielhernandez2575]

When you get to levels like this, no items doesn't cut it. Matches would drag on and on, these guys are playing these maps all the time so it's very unlikely that they'd make mistakes as they know them inside and out
