You're insane, this is one of the coolest celeste videos of all time!! GGs

[@eridanstan4977]

Theo: "Maddy, I understand you're going through some things, but I don't think I need to be here for this." Madaline: "STFU we're catching that bird!"

[@ZKBceleste]

So true that could've been the official dialog!

[@marufranco5281]

Madeline: "Granny died , we are going through the five stages of grief" Theo: "I am sorry to hear you are going through that" Madeline: "I said.. WE"

[@erierierierierie]

now see how much of farewell is possible without Theo

[@ZKBceleste]

So true

[@sileudies]

Impossible, you would barely be able to get past the first room

[@purplepyro8950]

0%, you have to interact with theo in chapter 5 no matter what so you couldnt even unlock farewell without him

[@potatinator9831]

I think that’s only Theo-retically possible

[@songoftheshadow1167]

Say farewell to theo

[@gaminggeckos4388]

5:00 "I'm helping." 5:54 "Theo saves the day once again!"

[@reliablesandwich]

Theo needed the *ultimate selfie* with granny

[@ZKBceleste]

What a selfie it would be!!

[@mychannelisdiedbyyoutube9632]

i love how there wasnt really any reason the barrier skip had to be involved in this but you did anyways

[@ZKBceleste]

Just for enjoying more the video :))

[@nathancarver7179]

"Dang girl, you can lift!" But seriously; I (and undoubtedly many many others) struggled with this chapter *without* having to carry Theo the whole way. This is *beyond* impressive.

[@isaiahgreenlee9273]

Love how Theo actually helps out at power source

[@Rickfernello]

That's amazing, this is super cool. Just rename the video to "can you finish Celeste Farewell while holding theo?" and it'll go viral 100%......

[@ZKBceleste]

Thanks Rick! I changed the name, let's see 😁

[@DarkblooM_IO]

@@ZKBceleste it's working

[@FreshCalimari]

@@ZKBceleste showed up in my reccomendations, impressive work!

[@zealiketea]

What was it originally called?

[@ZKBceleste]

"93% of Farewell is possible with Theo"

[@UnableToucan]

Theo is a valuable asset to help you get through the loss of granny! Definitely makes it way easier to overcome...

[@ZKBceleste]

You are so right, we definitely need intimate friends when mourning !

[@GIGACHAD-dk7zs]

Theo must've enjoyed the ride

[@ZKBceleste]

I hope he did !

[@LunaBoBuna_]

NO WAY HE COMPLETED THE LAST LEVEL WITH THEO 😮😮😮😮

[@Vlad-ks2we]

I love that you were on celestenet the whole time and people were there watching or even trying with you at some point :D 4:12 => so smart ! :o 6:11 => first impossible room but still impressive how far you still go 9:10 => this room is so cool 19:57 => love this strat. Madeline taking the coins below and theo taking those above. Nice thinking ! The most legit last room i've ever seen lmao Theo is even in the final cutscene with granny 🤣 Insane job dude, this is beyond impressive !

[@uwuchi9016]

Insane theo finesse. GGs

[@ZKBceleste]

Thank you very much!! And thanks to have played some rooms with me. 17:05 is your moment :frogeline:

[@DatSwif]

Everything can be a jellyfish if you're brave enough

[@oarmfan]

And I barely managed to complete it at all! Well done to you for the (at least 93%) completion together with Theo!

[@ZKBceleste]

thank you ! Yes this video was 93%, I'm actually at 96% though

[@oarmfan]

@@ZKBceleste Oh wow! Well done, haha! Did not expect that you would put yourself through all that!

[@larscandland4072]

This needs a TAS

[@ZKBceleste]

I don't have the whole TAS, but it has be done and it concludes that only 3 rooms are not possible with our actual knowladge

[@clawcakes2]

i love how many of the strats to get past rooms are just "wait here for a second, theo"

[@meissmart6678]

Whoa, what a crazy run! I’ve played some of the Spring Collab and Strawberry Jam, and even though I’ve beaten a few GM maps, the level of play in this run is mind-boggling. I especially liked the chained gultra in the Power Source room.

[@ZKBceleste]

Thank you very much, I'm glad that you enjoyed!

[@Kerosyin]

Enjoyed every second of this, huge GGs

[@twicey555]

Theo just sat there and had a free farewell tour.

[@Larch3]

final room features an insane new DTS and the first human instance of hazard stunning? goddamn ggs

[@accitarze4534]

I love this video!! Amazing challenge I have ever seen.

[@andrew6341]

I made a joke about this to some of my friends and then I see this appear on my recommended. Google needs to stop listening to me and you need to keep doing more cool shit

[@ZKBceleste]

wow your fact is epic ! I'm glad that you could watch this after this joke ! 🐸

[@VimifU]

This guy breaks THEOrethical limits of Theo

[@snarls3760]

That bird can lift like crazy

[@anhuynhpc]

Omg ty for showing me how to beat that last room with theo, i have tried to do it so many times

[@IrisSweetleaf]

Is this what speedrunners do to train for mirror temple?

[@ZKBceleste]

I have a doubt 😅

[@Silver-Arm]

I don't usually watch raw playthroughs, with no commentary, but everything you were doing was so interesting and engaging to watch, well done

[@ZKBceleste]

Thank you very much :D

[@Alex21Dashless]

GGs, can’t believe this much was actually possible

[@crazyme1237]

13:07 show off

[@ZKBceleste]

😏

[@calebp6114]

One of the most satisfying videos I’ve ever watched!

[@ZKBceleste]

I'm very glad, thank you so much !

[@GM360]

Holy crap this is seriously so impressive. I’m still trying to get all of the hearts to even unlock the rest of the level. Ik I can skip the wall but I’d rather play the game more. Anyways good stuff, good luck with future things!!

i cannot state how cool this is

definitely the most badass video ever

[@dimaginarylaw]

I lost it when you went through the lighting in fwfw

[@lumi2030]

this is how our grandparents went to school

[@fatgods2921]

Some of these tricks are so perfect, they look intentional.

[@epicstar86]

As Theo once said: "Dang girl, you can lift"

[@CHAZZRMAN]

This reminds me, there is this one room with a jelly umbrella and that weird key door things that were trapped by crystals and it was super easy to dupe the jellies them take them both across and it was very fun

[@ilyassmoubtassim7549]

I cannot believe you did the full power source skip while HOLDING THEO

[@Enju125]

theo berry when

[@saltwaterhero8712]

this man is crazy!! next he'll do theo hell with theo ..or something

[@lucasmiguel1508]

I'm already impressed you can DTS with Theo

[@ZKBceleste]

huh, you can Oil Skip (The part where you float after bino), and that allowed to skip 1 impossible room. Nevertheless, you can't really skip the Dash Trigger after, with the Theo Extended Variants Entity at least, because you can't be out of screen with it 😭

[@lucasmiguel1508]

@@ZKBceleste of course, how could I not notice that you didn't actually skip the trigger. You had only one dash the whole time and I haven't even noticed 🤣

[@ZKBceleste]

No worries 😂 Anyway, even though it was possible, I would probably do the challenge with single dash

[@miostjarnbrandt]

25:41 As a swede, I find it increasingly more and more funny how you casually just see someone called SvenskOstkakaMedSylt in the top right corner for like the entire room xD

[@ZKBceleste]

xD True

[@vividescence]

I will try to avenge that 7:50 no DTS

[@ZKBceleste]

That would be so cool !!

[@leog.o6161]

It is very good, you just need to specify that the video is a bit cut, but I do not take away the effort

[@sheepuff5999]

Wouldn't a lot more of this be possible since we discovered how to keep 2-dash madeline after the opening cutscene?

[@NotOmd]

She needs her emotinal support Theo

[@Jadondigital]

You either stole my comment or that was a weird coincidence

[@NotOmd]

I just saw your comment i didn't know you commented until now lol@@Jadondigital

[@Rotem_S]

This really needs to be a mod category, like the etseleC mod ..Maybe I'll make that, but I don't have any level making experience

[@griss295]

a sisyphean task if i've ever seen one

[@rishabhmittal1240]

Awesome job and amazing skill! I just have a few questions. What's with the skip at 26:09? Also, why did you enable infinite dashes and invincibility for the final level (Since everything else seemed legit)? Was it cause it's genuinely impossible?

[@ZKBceleste]

Hey! Thank you for your comment. The skips at 6:25, 18:51, 22:20, 26:08, and 26:20 are because I didn't succeed beating the rooms. (That's why there is a black circle in the upright corner of the clips). I finally bet 22:20 and 26:20 one month later, it's available in this video : kzbin.info/www/bejne/bXnTXmmtmbededU For the last room cheat variants, I enabled em because the final cutescene with Theo in the sky is epic, and for this, I had to finish the room, and I think it's genuinely impossible, except if we find a new Theo tech in the next months/years :)

[@scramburg]

now do the golden

[@P4ryRhythmXYZ]

Now do it with 3 of the eye monster from chapter 5 chasing you

[@aaronjin5715]

NCG did the final room with theo using savestates

[@ZKBceleste]

ye, NCG's my GOAT

[@alympie_le_raton4379]

1/ GG 2/ T'es Taré XD 3/ Un petit conseil pour la vidéo si tu veut rendre mieux (de mon point de vue). Tu devrais enregistrer avec seulement les sons des moves et non la musique. Puis remettre une musique de Farewell par dessus à mon avis. La coupure dans la musique à chaque respawn est pas ouf je trouve. Après c'est un point de vue XD. Maintenant, go faire 9B 🚀

[@ZKBceleste]

Je retiens le conseil bg ! Merci beaucoup!!

[@mr_penrose_8220]

Quand tu dis 93% possible, c'est jusqu'à ce que tu trouves que un moyen de faire les 7 % restants pas vrai XD GG pour la yrun incroyable !

[@ZKBceleste]

Merci bg !! Pour le coup il y a une room où c'est vraiment close, et qui est potentiellement possible, mais les 6 autres sont purement infaisables x)

[@michalberanek2783]

Poor birbuh working overtime, carrying Madeline (who's already at least 20 times their mass) _and_ a 300 kg crystal Also, I don't assume moonberry would be possible, but jellyless golden room is, so _maybe?_

[@ZKBceleste]

moonberry is not possible. I should say that we may find something someday, but I really think that no

[@wa11ie]

i think this called me bad in 25 different languages

[@doshirae6795]

I can't fathom how you can be that good at the game

[@ZKBceleste]

Thank you, that means so much for me

[@miilexthemii9353]

Ya are a masochist. Idk how ya still have sanity intact after this.

[@goldenhog]

yes!

[@OuaisAmelie]

Oil skip

[@moncef2733]

9D with theo when

[@anan-vg7ki]

mfw zkb carring a theo (they are unbeatable)

[@GenericLoser12]

i cant even beat Farewell normally :(

[@ethzzexists]

It takes a lot of practice, I can't yet either but you'll get there!

[@Buttered.Coffee]

even did the barrier skip w/ theo wait what the heck happened at 12:49

[@ZKBceleste]

The collisions are pretty weird while in contact with some moving entities. Un one hand, a bloc moving vertically might teleport Theo at up (and also extremly rarely at down). In the other hand, a bloc moving horizontally might teleport Theo at left or at right. The fact is that this zipmover block moves both vertically and horizontally, which made a visual effect genuinely wtf

[@SATCH3LY]

golden viable 😁

[@paulvonhooveriii9943]

So we’re those wrong warps to other rooms or did u relize it wasn’t doable and move to the next lnr

[@ZKBceleste]

If I didn't succeed, I gave up and tried the next one. That's why I got 3 more rooms since this video. But because some rooms have been TASed, we know that 2 rooms are physically impossible, one is TAS Only, and 2 others are possible but it requires a tech incredibly hard and I didn't learn it yet

[@stic8844]

:frogeline:

[@fowenart]

gros chad

[@monokuma5351]

Oh god, the amount of neutral drops in this video, how is your hand not in shambles?

[@ZKBceleste]

Practice i guess :))

[@oinkymomo]

would any more rooms in rc be possible if stubbornness didn't kill oilskip

[@ZKBceleste]

In RC I beat two more rooms since this video : kzbin.info/www/bejne/bXnTXmmtmbededU 21:43 would be possible with 2 dashes. It's still possible with 1 dash using a very hard tech (like 10+ frame perfects) 23:43 is possible with one dash but TAS only (around 60 frame perfects) and a second dash doesn't make it easier at all 26:05 might be possible with one dash. A second dash would make it way easier though Last room 26:22 is just doable without Theo

[@rasmodii]

When you go very fast out of nowhere, are you doing a reverse into a grounded ultra?

[@ZKBceleste]

4:10 yes reverse grounded ultra into ultra

[@Jadondigital]

Aw she needs her emotional support Theo

[@keags1545]

At roughly 6:20 cant you throw theo onto the block to your right to stall for time for you to exit??

[@ZKBceleste]

no, you can exit a room only if you are holding theo. So unfortunately this one can't work with your idea. There's a possibility to beat the room though. If you want 118h without doing anything, the game just unload all the spinner spikes; so theoretically you'll be able to use the transition for theovator on the one room, on the other one...... and beat the room. But I never AFKed 5 days on Celeste ahah

[@Y3ee]

How long did this take you?

[@ZKBceleste]

This took me 14h and 33min, devided on 4 days

[@Prod_by_proto]
