[@sappical]

The yelling across the valley is absolutely sending me 😂

[@SSilverArt]

Tango:How’s the family Zed:yup i live here

[@KidaBerry]

saaameee, that's my fav. comedy trope!!! 🤣

[@Flower_Makes_Stuff]

Bro fr lol

[@redstonerg.8616]

covid-like communication

[@imperfectimp]

Would make a very good skit at the top of the recap.

[@pallasproserpina4118]

"I'm your what?" "Yeah, you're good. Everything's good, you? How's the family?" "Yeah, this is my area" excellent conversation

[@liamkampff1]

Underrated improv from the two of them hahaha

[@Its_Over_Anakin]

It gave me massive Tony and Ezekiel vibes ahahaha

[@Tonestas]

In Zedaph's kitchen, it's the chefs that get cooked...

[@siliconsulfide8]

the furnaces are rebelling

[@Flower_Makes_Stuff]

Lollllll

[@kittyshippercavegirl]

Zedaph, primary innovator in using redstone to make his life MORE difficult

[@smolbluegoblin]

and it's the cookies that get poisoned

[@nousernamejoshua1556]

Observer based entropy clock without principles or values. How capitalistic, very taxable worldliness. It's not only aout jumping higher than your opponent but making sure you put out your own fires ...and making sure you dont carch fire in your endeavors. Have you read the current laws these days...? Incredible. Only a few citizens and scientists have been injured in the practice of science and capitalism.notceven any wars.

[@DJ0045]

The furnace needs a “days since last incident” sign, lol.

[@sheryawady8737]

thats a cool idea

[@SmerkyRandomised]

I think the entire base needs one of those signs- In fact, maybe Zed should just wear the sign around his neck lol

[@dharusiokay9426]

​@@SmerkyRandomised And the number would _always_ be a zero. Of course.

[@paulelderson934]

A daylight sensor, counter and redstone lamp display would make that possible without any manual actions.

[@technician0096]

“Chickens cooked since last incident” 😂

[@tetsujin_144]

14:25 - "This one is being pistoned, while this one is being un-pistoned" I would say one is pistoned, and the other is pistoff.

[@jaewol359]

Pistoff? Why is it mad?

[@mathw5389]

I’m glad to see you welcoming Joel to the server in an appropriate fashion. Extremely hospitable of you. Very curious now about which future minigame you’re going to feed Skizz to.

[@noahclaycameron]

Minigames often get hungry

[@Questerer]

Hungry hungry Hypno

[@Cluemily]

That's one way to stoke the fires of a new friendship... by setting them ON fire. The food's just a bonus.

[@stefansauvageonwhat-a-twis1369]

Why break the ice with new people when you can BURN IT hehehe

[@dvotion5819]

Their hearts will melt together

[@paintycup]

"I'm so glad you're not naked anymore." "Thank.. you?" excellent place to cut 😂

[@authorinthedark]

"if i ever need something cooking I won't come to you" he's figured it out, now he's a real Hermit

[@adamantii]

I strongly feel as though he said "if I never need anything cooking, I won't come to you", although the subtitles say otherwise

[@Shortnamesareoverrated]

Is it Joel that you’re talking about? IDK but, when Joel said something about Lizzie being annoyed at him, that sent me into spirals of laughter

[@tonyt475]

Joel is a perfect person for zedaph's experiments. He's coming expecting chaos and the chaos is more chaotic than he expected.

[@F1Fun]

- « How’s the family ? » - « Yup, i live there » 😂

[@starace4031]

I hope Tango and Zed yelling across the valley to one another can be a semi-regular occurance - a fun way of updating one another & recapping events/progress etc. 😊😄

[@smolbluegoblin]

This system makes me think of those cartoons where something was powered by hamsters running on their wheel... except there was less fire involved

[@everestfarmer9250]

One thing I think would be fun is a shooting-gallery-style wool farm, where the sheep are kept in a chamber and then launched out one by one on ice, and you have to shoot a target block to get the dispensers to shear them. Thanks for the great videos, cheers!

[@Tonestas]

That's such a fun idea

[@MagnorCriol]

Oh man that's genius. And seems super on brand too

[@RadiantOrchid]

Fantastic idea, very zedaphy

[@akagif-y]

Maybe the real Kitchen Nightmares are the friends we singe along the way... Fantastic episode!

[@bugmancx]

I think you ate more chicken recovering hearts than you smelted!

[@GforGForce]

Welcome to hermitcraft, Joel! You’ve learned the valuable lesson of: be wary when Zed invites you over, but expect a good (if confusing) time.

[@lomiification]

This is the best minecraft idea yet. No afk-ing allowed on the server. Every farm must be played to get the resources!

[@morosis82]

That would be super spicy, great idea.

[@LisaMiza]

I think i smell burnt beans...

[@tonyt475]

Joel is exact copy of you in Builder universe. He too put himself in very ristrictive, crazy, impossible and painful situations like you and some how successfully does it, just like you.

[@TimLavelle]

I love how Hermitcraft offers something for everyone. I just watched Scar, Cub, and now Zed, and the playstyles COULD NOT BE any more different!

[@oasisflurry9933]

honestly zedaph's style of humour would fit just right in with taskmaster - that is to say, he should be more popular and well known! heres to season 10! loving it as always!

[@GalaxyBunnyBunny-ot8jy]

He IS the new taskmaster sorry Grian

[@molliebowling7029]

Love this, if there is to be a mayor or king or minister of ministers this season i think it should be Zedaph and he should fashion his ruler persona after the taskmaster.

[@stan8479]

@@molliebowling7029Instead of demanding people toss their diamonds into a pit and hand over their shops, minister Zed should demand people to complete a task impromptu 😂

[@berndarndt9924]

Zedaph didn't do many taskmaster episodes in the past though. He actually only rarely interacted with other hermits. The taskmaster show lives of off interactions of entertainers. The most popular hermits do lots of interactions all the time.

[@Pengwwennie]

Tango and Zed yelling at each other was hilarious

[@stefansauvageonwhat-a-twis1369]

Ah of course, why break the ice with new members when you can burn it and blow it up hehehe

[@theyofmanynames]

Of course Zedaph would require himself to recruit someone every time he wants to smelt something. I love it to bits.

[@eveningshade9296]

What a warm welcome to one of the new Hermits! Maybe a bit too warm...but such a fun mini game to start things off :D

[@mutantdogturtle11]

Season 10 seems a lot more tightly knit and fun than pevious seasons

[@Phildog28]

Joel and Zed is the duo we never knew we needed, but the duo we deserved!

[@EmalineSmith-gy1xd]

So true

[@Spikeba11]

I think you want the landing from the jump to feel like it is pushing the block down. So I'd reduce the delay by 3-4 ticks. You want to land on the block with it still up but you don't want a delay before it then goes down so it feels like one motion.

[@WackoMcGoose]

21:16 "Well, not certain doom, more like doom with a certain possibility. Possibili-doom."

[@Luscitrys]

Now I want a furnace tournament. A fournacent? Just pairs of hermits seeing who can smelt the most items.

[@hazelflwrs]

as a longtime joel watcher (and an admittedly newer zedaph watcher), i was looking forward to the two meeting each other & filming a clip eventually, so i am so ecstatic that we’ve gotten it so early into the season!! it was so fun watching you two play this minigame together ❤️

[@seleniticdawn]

I rarely genuinely laugh aloud when I'm watching videos by myself, but that opening conversation with Tango was too damn funny. Bravo.

[@RainbowPonyMM]

Game idea: what if you turned using an enchanting table into a game of archery where with each target you hit another bookshelf pops up around the table. You could build a cool redstone target practice in the enchanting room so every time you have to enchant something you need to hit all the targets (one per bookcase) in order to enchant at level 30. Each time you are successful it dispenses 3 lapis to your player so you have to press a button to reset the bookshelves every time to get the lapis to use the table.

[@bluenono3821]

This is such a good episode, and if there are going to be incredible games like this all the time, we are surely in for a treat.

[@chaseohara4781]

Zed is Everyone's backdoor neighbour. ❤

[@seymour47]

I know some people from my days in college where this encapsulates their cooking abilities.

[@pacattack2586]

50% fire chance might be a bit much - I'ld have another item in each of those randomizers to make it 33%

[@RedWinterRoses]

the Journey to Sacrifice Diamonds to the Spawn Lava Pit was full of more emotional ups and downs than the last blockbuster movie I watched.

[@harrymhope05]

See this upgraded jump powered furnace was a brilliant idea!!! ❤ interested to find out how you will smelt things if you are the only one online tho! 😂

[@ViIvaNunner]

there should definitely be a little offical bridge across the crevasse to a platform with the water source so its equal distance from both jump pads and wont change if you dig further down maybe you could add hazards to the bridge too like bits of soul sand or cobwebs to make the trip to get water a little more interesting

[@DevinHeiss]

I know it would be a lot of work, but if you made a second one of those furnaces, it would be a great 2v2 mini game. It reminds me a lot of a Mario Party mini game, even

[@ca-ke9493]

That sounds awesome!

[@mikeblank5734]

The Zedaph Hermit Furnace Mini-Game. I love it, and it looks really cool.

[@larenabbott4869]

Have you thought about a mob dunk tank? Maybe an iron farm? The mobs or golems land in a tank, and you have to hit a target block with eggs, snowballs, etc. to drop them into the killing chamber.

[@Bookworm-re3ou]

The thing this minigame reminded me of was Overcooked. The stress of it all, things randomly setting on fire when you're too slow, yelling at your friends, all of it. I love that you picked Joel for this, I love that this is his first impression of you. A very fun episode thank you!

[@coyoteeth]

the distant yelling conversation in the beginning killed me lmaooo

[@another_jt]

The season's just started and Zed is cooking already.

[@JacobAshlee]

Zed's Kitchen! Coming soon to a town near you! With extra hermits

[@aubni]

Quick suggestion for the randomness of the game, instead of having a set time between attempts to start a fire, you could make a randomiser that accumulates items until you reach a certain power threshold. That way, you could have a bit more control over the length of time between two fires and avoid long streaks without fires.

[@parchmentengineer8169]

Oh my goodness this is incredible. That's so much better than the old jumpy furnace - you've channeled the vibes of something like Overcooked and turned it into an entirely new, incredible experience I noticed in the credits you said that you're looking for game ideas, and I've got two I was kinda popping around! One would be to make a carrot farm infested by some kind of mob, perhaps silverfish, and in order to harvest your carrots you'd need to play a game of whack-a-mole to get rid of the infestation! The other is slightly inspired by your pitch drop experiment - there'd be a reward window where you can access what the farm produces, but it only opens for 10 minutes every few real-world hours, so you need to keep track of when the next time it opens will be and make your way back there within that short window

[@nifegun]

Maybe zed is the right hermit for this idea! I have an awesome minigame idea and i really want a hermit to build it. Its super simple, here goes! Find a spawner (ideally zombie) near tbe surfaces, completely expose it to the sun, and give maybe 5 blocks on each side of it, then fences to keep the zombies in. Next build a big canopy way up in the sky over it so that its dark, but you still have lots of room above it. Now build platforms on 2 opposing sides, or all 4 about 15ish blocks up and over from the zombie area Finally build a big water funnel and backboard behind and above each of those platforms. Now the game is built. Heres how you play. Get a few people to be each team, they stand on one of the platforms and zombies randomly spawn in. Their objective is to coordinate grabbing zombies with fishing rods, and then yeeting them into the basketball net behind their platform. You play the game for a few minutes and whichever team has yeeted the most zombies into their net at the end of the timer wins.

[@ste_zace]

I would watch a full stream of the neighbours tango and zed yelling at each other

[@camofw4563]

Some time ago, I would have never imagined that I would see a collaboration between my two favourite MC youtubers, what a time to be alive!

[@couchycushion]

i think this might be the least efficient furnace i’ve ever seen, and also the most fun!! looking forward to the continued minigame-ification that you’ve got planned!

[@TheSnailKing.]

Not sure if this is something you would want, but if you find it helpful: For Dig Down of the Day, you could set an ender peal stasis chamber (with something like a daylight sensor at the top) before you go down. This way (although you may need to wait a bit) you always have a way back up with your goodies!

[@paradox...]

Gonna need the extended intro animation back... please and thank you!

[@justcallmeness]

I thought it was a mistake

[@cryptidcrime]

the furnace (before the fire) kind of reminds me of a push train cart, the ones where you have two people on a seesaw-like thing and have to alternate who is pushing down to make the train cart move.

[@ab-mc2nq]

ok that opening skit has me in tears XD

[@honeydaisies]

cant wait to see the "number of jumps" statistic after this season...

[@spawnofheck504]

man I'm having the best time this season checking out all the hermits I never got the chance to before! That opening bit with Tango just brought the GOOFIEST smile to my face. Subscribed and all belled up for future episodes!

[@sisigwithrice]

8:00 "That wasn't even a timelapse, that was just real time" 🤣

[@user-fh6ml2be6b]

Zedaph is always a good comedian. He even brought us the Roast of Joel. Heck he even brought the epic Roast of himself.

[@qocket]

I hope the crack in the ground produces even more excellent content.

[@julkip]

Seems like a very FUNctional base

[@S1LLYFL0WER]

i love watching everyone's interactions with the new hermits!! this was so chaotic and fun to watch!

[@davidtackett2253]

For some reason, when I saw from the title that you built a Hermit powered furnace, I thought it would be powered by their timely/untimely deaths as they fell into it. But, making them sweat their butts off to cook is a healthy alternative than just sitting there waiting for the furnace to cook. Great job as always!

[@jamothegamo9916]

I've just realized, zed's bace is practically the minigame district this season

[@eloquentornot]

This looks so fun! So great to see Joel having fun as a hermit!

[@elvinvillamor472]

What's your name....tango. What's your name....zep. Zep you rock!!!

Oh boy, the multiplayer minigames sure are starting with a bang :D

[@fizzle7421]

You really know how to ease somebody new into your whole vibe, huh? I'm just kidding. You threw Joel right in the deep end 😂😂

[@illegalhat1410]

I still can't believe Joel is a Hermit, it is such a cool game . You are a genius Zed ❤️

[@Angelicmushrooms]

OLYMPIC DUO IS REAL NOT FAKE OMG JOEL AND ZED INTERACTIONS I AM SO NORMAL

[@michaelhoerr2468]

Having the RP that makes the observer's expressions change was a brilliant touch!

[@nelsonevanward]

For clarity- a crevice is a crack specifically in rock, and a crevasse is a crack specifically in ice.

[@OriginaIJoke]

I’m gonna let out an immature chuckle every time Zed says “crevasse”

[@punkinlady1039]

The furnace is like an oompa loompa contraption

[@sanautin]

Only Zed could come up with this. Love it!

[@MangoMars-gf8xm]

That opening scene with Tango is genius lol. I remember the meme "whos your name?"

[@zeneomaple]

4:13 Elybeatmaker, we need a remix of this! XD

[@Hydrugan]

That intro was brilliant!

[@santiagoruiz7490]

Digdown of the day tip from a spedrunner. You could use flowing water and doors to make the hole and have a reliable way to get out. Basically have a water source flow into your hole from above and constantly place doors on each block you're standing (offhand helps so you only hold both clicks). I'd suggest getting 6 doors, 3 should be the minimum for it to work consistenly but sometimes you don't pick the broken doors back on time

[@themanwiththeplan676]

I don't know if you've heard Zed, but I think Grian is trying to play like you this season. :o

[@PeteSudlow]

8:20 The snicker at the word "bottom" made my day. Thanks, Zed!

[@alecsmith3448]

May I suggest an analog combrewter? Like the combrewter, exept the spot the ingreadients have to land shifts around, so you have to adjust the launcher on the fly to aim at it .

[@randydavis5014]

Zedaph is one of the funnest people to watch. Your videos are always so different. I loved the mad scientist and Zedvancements Season and can’t wait for this season

[@abj136]

I had a very zedaphy thought: Last season we saw the highest fall. The previous season I think we had the lowest sit (on a pig beneath bedrock). New thought: How HIGH could one sit (or stand)? 320 is the highest block, But suppose you stack boats above that. (Can you?). Maybe there’s a game of stacking up high!

[@chrismckay3868]

hey zed, instead of jumping, what about making a short track the hermit has to run around with strategically placed pressure plates they have to run over, you cant hit the same plate more than once and they have to be done in the right order to continue the smelting? :) Basically Hermit Ninja Warrior Smelting ;)

[@samstone8674]

This was hilarious-- what a perfect way for you two to meet properly. Joel really got the Zedaph Experience. I hope you invite him over for more experiments, you two play off each other so well!

[@glampixie]

So glad to see you and Joel together, I always thought the two of you would be hilarious together and I was right.

[@Halinn]

Now Yoel gets to live the Zedaph experience

[@BringOnTheRainxx3]

love that you made a point to reach out to both new hermits in your first two episodes💗💛

[@weebusmaximus570]

I keep forgetting that Zed is also a crazy redstone guy, he just specializes in the little mini-games and puts so much effort into his challenges

[@bartoch]

This minigame is really clever and a really fun concept 😁

[@MoreWeirdness]

PFFFF THE VALLEY ECHO WAS SO FUNNY😭😭 the mini game is sooo creative!!! i genuinely always love your ideas

[@molly_the_spy7414]

I always look at zed's videos and think this idea is so stupid (bless him) these antics are for the kids, this can't possibly hold my attention for long. Than I suddenly find myself at the end of the video with a big smile on my face. I'm 39. Well done dude. 😂

[@Geoff1928]

No other MC-KZbinr plays Minecraft quite the way you do Zed. Absolutely adore this minigame!

[@lambert_the_reckless993]

"I'm just glad you're not naked anymore" sums it up pretty well

[@carlymacdonald3571]

Zed I have only watched you for 2 seasons and the more I watch the more I'm convinced you are a mad scientist and I'm here for it. Love the content and the original, strange ways you show the viewers how the minecraft features work and how your mind works.

[@Cranbearry_YouTube]

I have never seen such chaos in a Minecraft furnace lol!
