Yo this speedrunner guy is pretty good.

[@L0V3V4MP1R3]

Smooth.

Insert Obama giving himself a medal meme

[@oscarjimenez88]

Hey I loved your narration and obviously the run itself. Good job man!

[@arnonsoad]

This guy is the best.

[@dude4200]

Very informative

[@mikejacob2421]

I watch this dude near daily and he really is that good!! He's great at explaining and narrating and has just an overall cool channel. Anyone who grew up with or loves SOTN should follow him.

[@eggoslayer1001]

Just to let people know - DB also has a KZbin channel with a ton of great content as well. Highly recommend everyone check it out because he deserves the views and subscribers. He's been working so hard at it and I really want him to succeed.

[@Jamesatighe]

Sotn is still one of my favourite ever games. Speedruns of it are weirdly fascinating to watch due to the awesome movement!

[@ecreiP]

The timing of the cut after Alucard's line at 36:01 was really slick.

[@BhuliBhuli]

Dr4gonBlitz is a legendary gamer :) Glad to see him at AGDQ once again.

[@Faris_V5]

The transition during the ending righter after "Farewell then, we'll not meet again." Classy

[@iamjafar925]

Couldn't catch it live but really excited to watch this! Love Dr4gonBlitz and the SOTN community!

[@MrZonk1122]

Very enjoyable run and terrific explanatory commentary from Dr4gonblitz. Thanks for posting on KZbin!

[@Hooples]

Been watching dr4gonblitz on KZbin for a few years now, glad to see him this year in agdq

[@Jamesatighe]

Let’s go Dr4gonblitz! Good to see you on AGDQ! 🎉

[@antoniopaolucci8194]

DB is the best in the game. Best at explaining, never stresses a missed glitch/exploit, and never gets quiet. I watch his not GDQ videos just as a way to get through my workday. So happy to see him at GDQ.

[@_BELMONT_]

best run so far. Dr4gonBlitz always kills it!

[@VetNovice]

So proud of Dr4gon. Only been around here and again on his streams, really friendly and open to teach me how to speedrun. I'm going to take him up on that offer this year and attempt my own runs this year :). Seems so fun to move around. Thanks for everything GDQ, and Dr4gonBlitz!

[@VrikktheUndying]

Man, Dr4gonBlitz's breakdown of every piece of the speedrun is just incredible. 10/10. Will watch again.

[@seiferleonheart]

DB runs are always awesome to watch, couldn't make it in time to see it live, but glad we got it here. Thanks!

[@varikcrassus]

Db killing it as always

[@holcombrandall]

Another amazing SotN run by DragonBlitz! Nice!

[@camwyn256]

Great! The re-upload I was waiting on. Couldn't watch this live past the first 15 minutes

[@shino6494]

Thank you for this run, amazing runner and you reminded my why this game is on my top 5 despite not having played it in almost 10 years! Definitively gonna play it again and maybe run this category

[@XxguaxinimxX.]

Nice Run! I've been watching Dr4gonBlitz's randomizers videos and it is pretty cool!

[@Markooz-GamesNostalgia]

20:50 Actually, the blowing up bridge trick was performed by me 4 and a half years ago, but I thought it was an emulator glitch. A long time later I found that my player profile 2 was set up the same way as profile 1. Then when I pressed triangle, the bridge exploded. Recently it was said that someone discovered a debug code, ok, but I had already run it a lot before, as I explained. I even posted the video in 2018.

[@V4Lanz]

Dr4gonBlitz what a great speedrunner

[@thisislance]

One of my favorite games of all time. Nice run! Incredibly skilled at talking while playing.

[@nardzzzzz]

Congrats DB :) Awesome run!

[@samk8005]

Really impressive run and awesome commentary too - well done!

[@camwyn256]

Alucard doesn't need a sword when he's got his smashing board

[@ChaoticNeutralAnimation]

As a child I had a friend who beat this game (both castles) in something like 10 hours and I was amazed. Finishing both castles and all bosses in 32:40 is mind shattering.

[@GordonGordon]

How he wing smashes, adjusts his flight path, all while talking, is totally beyond me.

[@rodvaz1]

Dr4gonBlitz is the best SoTN runner! I'm a big fan of his work

[@Zabuasba]

Dr4gonBlitz is such a great guy and great Castlevania speed runner, props to him for doing this. Big fan ❤️

[@eggoslayer1001]

Always glad to see DB doing a run at a GDQ. The GOAT SotN runner and just an overall solid dude.

[@m_5373]

Always my fav. Castlevania game ❤️, Awesome Speedrun!

[@SECONDQUEST]

Oh wow it's that person I know! DRAGONBLITZ I WATCHED YOU STREAM! Don't really watch people anymore but I used to watch you!

[@jackw.3504]

Such a good speed run.

[@charlessegale6493]

Always up for a SOTN speedrun!

[@SECONDQUEST]

@7:44 dang that is some smooooth inputs

[@demoniac4821]

I hope to see Sotn in GDQ next year as well! DB killed it.

[@VinnyS41]

9:06 It's funny to hear DB saying this after doing sub 7 clock rush

[@buzzsaiyan]

Wow! What a run!

[@cactusyackestudios]

Siempre disfruto ver los runs de este juego

[@SECONDQUEST]

I like this host

[@CartridgeBlowers]

I like you!

[@Rogerlenke]

Great run!

[@CYI3ERPUNK]

fukn mezmerizing indeed , kudos/GJ Dr4gonBlitz , SOTN is such a masterpiece on so many different levels , truly amazing

[@r4tbu564]

Commentary is just as good as the run, if not better. Kudos DB!

[@locklinweight840]

Tbh if it were me making the reference in the introduction it be "what is a speed run a miserable little pile of second tricks but enough talk have at you"

[@kingeternal_ap]

I lived to see this glorious day

[@ExplosiveDisregard]

it would be fun to see a map of the game with a little red dot flying through the place in real time as he just flies through the place.

[@willqin4628]

I remember when I played this game without guide. And don't know how, I trigger the rod with a shield which will summor two giant sword and move forward. And with the cast time , smoke and bat, I entered Maria room without the special armor.

[@camwyn256]

Clock rush, the 2 minute "frame rule"

[@alberteastgate4503]

dra4gonBlitz is SOTN Lord!

[@miguebros8]

finally again at AGDQ, yay!!!

[@mittensfastpaw]

Very nice run! Grew up with the PS1 version! Great memories!

[@pallyxav7597]

I always thought that the richter fight was considered a boss fight

[@connerprisbrey9254]

[@perchayweas]

my boy dragonblitz :)

[@crithon]

that's amazing

[@Domn94]

Let's GO!

[@SYMgenshin]

Yoooo great run Mr. DB

[@Squimd]

Best game of all time.

[@arnonsoad]

Someone give a man to this trophy.

[@404waffles]

damn i remember getting my xbox 360 and this game in 1997! childhood memories :)

[@nolimitln1]

nice

[@WibbleWobbl]

Some of the bosses actually look pretty cool... sucks they die so quickly

[@micksterminator3]

This just sets it in stone that I'll never play through a 2d Castlevania game lol. I've loved Castlevania 64 2d Metroids but this is too much. One day :D

[@richardjoyce2764]

Castlevania: Symphony of the shshshshshshsh!

[@arnonsoad]

Dragonblitz is the best.

[@242sighting]

I'm surprised All Bosses lets you skip the Richter fight.

[@PyroShadow117]

amazing gameplay, tho I wish when GDQ was in person (No offense to this player, I really love this run and this game, just in person had a different feel)

[@vidagogo9829]

Awesome run, but isn't Richter included in bosses? You have to beat what controls him after getting the glasses.

[@grunkleg.2934]

Richter isn't considered a boss by speedrunners, because when you check the game's activity log thing, clearing the fight means you "save" him instead of defeating him

[@tavious90tallica]

i wish i could play this on my PC without an emu

[@vitorvilasanchez]

"what is a speed run? a miserable pile of glitches!"

[@bobosmith101]

Wait, didn't he skip Cerberus and The Creature?

[@tschristyn]

👏👏👏👏👏

[@regeoberon3676]

SOTN literally put in a clock to stop you from gaining more time. Contemplate your mortality, foolish speedrunners.

[@sirlight-ljij]
