Hockolicious - The History of Trackmania's Most Hunted Track

Given 15 years of competition, how far can the best Trackmania players push the record on a track with just 10 turns? The answer is always juuuust a little further.

I was hoping you would make a video about this map one day, and I have to say you covered its history very well. Was a pleasure to watch! 13:13 is still one of the most painful moments of my life. Before this, I hadn’t really fully committed to the map, but this time I was really going for it. I was going for that “knockout” run as you perfectly described in the video; and this was the run. I remember seeing -0.17 on my current PB in the checkpoint after the poles, and after that my vision started to fade. My body could not handle it. I think it meant a little too much for me at the time. Next thing I know I have crashed on a spot I had never crashed on before. Then I just find myself sitting on my bed, dying a little bit inside, refusing to believe what had just happened. With that said, I can’t stretch enough how strong Tasty’s run is. Truly an amazing achievement and I’m so happy we got to see a 53.7x in the end :)

This is the kind of map where the no cut wr will always be 500 times more impressive

[@WillemTM]

Real and true

[@Trep3]

until the cut is also grinded and perfected for 15 years Chatting

[@McLennox]

I can't disagree more. The cut wr has to string together a handful of difficult tricks while maintaining momentum. The massive gap between the 1st and 2nd time are a testament to the new skill ceiling. How many people were within a tenth, or even a hundredth of the old way? Now we have a clear winner, who decimated the rest of the competition with arguably the most technical way of driving. It's about tech after all, isn't it?

[@HoLLyWoOdUnDeAdFaN96]

I personally admire the cut WR more, all the ingenuity of finding the ideal path with AI technology, trying it out with TAS, then practicing it, and finally managing a good run with all the insane tricks required, is such an impressive task. I'm not saying the no cut WR wasn't impressive, it was damn near the human limit, which is exactly why the cut was found.

[@ivanjermakov]

I feel that no cut wr is more impressive because of how little luck it involves.

[@kyocommittee5630]

I missed this style of videos from Wirt, but nice to see he hasn't forgotten about them. Love the content

[@catcatcatcatcatcatcatcatcatca]

When Wirtual said making main channel videos takes a lot of effort I didn’t realise he meant solving an NP-hard computational problem in order to cut the most prestigious map of the classic leaderboard.

[@armsofundertow98]

I understand the goal is to go as fast as possible in trackmania but theres just something so much more impressive about Tastys record than the cut way to me.

[@Harrock]

Yea I would rather watch a slower run that has a nice flow , pixel perfect corners than someone crawling over barriers and clipping through floor 😂😂😂 . They should make the order in wich the checkpoints get approached fixed

[@jethroortega4129]

Most major speedrunning communities have separate leaderboards for glitched and glitchless runs. I feel Trackmania Exchange would benefit from separating the leaderboads much the same way. I don't know much about Trackmania other than what Wirtual uploads (and I played the recent console release for a few hours), but it's clear that the track loses something when it's cut the way it has been here. Tech players who aren't interested in cutting the track are completely left behind, and being erased from the history books, by the people gladly doing so. And FWO waiting (or trying to anyway) to reveal that they cut the track until they got most of the top spots on the leaderboards is a very toxic way to go about it, in my opinion. Like giving a middle finger to every tech player. Not saying that cutting the track doesn't require player skill, but there's a great deal more luck involved. So the leaderboards should reflect that, since not everyone is on an equal playing field.

[@RC.13]

@@jethroortega4129 why do you think shortcuts don’t require as much skill?

[@jethroortega4129]

@Rob Clifford clipping through the track, which is done here, requires luck. Therefore, not as much player skill is involved since the clip isn't always consistent. Shortcutting the track does require skill, I'm not trying to argue that it doesn't, but shortcut runs should have its own leaderboard separate from those who drive the track 'regularly'. Like I said, there's different categories in most speedrunning communities depending on how the game is run and of course a glitched run (which this is the rough equivalent of) is going to be faster than a glitchless run. With separate leaderboards, tech players can still chase the WR with other tech players instead of unilaterally being forced off the top of the leaderboards, and shortcut players can still find ways to break the track. Both communities win in the end, and you keep competition alive in two different racing styles rather than just one.

[@ChristofferFlensburg]

@@jethroortega4129 Also not knowing anything about trackmanaia apart from wirtuals channel, it seems tech or cuts are both pushed to the limit in terms of skill. As in, the skill/luck in a pixel perfect cut is not that different in the skill/luck in a pixel perfect race line? Both require a highly skilled player to try it over and over for many hours to make everything come together. Idk, I find both impressive and entertaining to watch, so I agree that it sucks for tech players that they get erased from the top of the leaderboard when a cut is found.

Thank you for this video its been a while, been waiting for one of these vids for a while now and you havent disappoint

[@as_bud_ta1_bo_ha]

this was amazing man! thank you for an opportunity to feel this emotions!

[@gabepesco]

Great video, wirt. It does make me wonder why there isn't a leaderboard split for non-sc and sc records, though. Mario kart does it and it seems like it keeps everyone happy.

I really miss the old ending music. Its emotional, epic and sounds amazing which would add to the watch experience immensly. I just rewatched D07-Race video and that video is special. Not only because the song, but the way you edited and presented the video as a whole felt smooth and well laid out. I also liked the music choice in the middle of the video. The camera panning around the level from different angles while you explain details was great. Legit crying at the end of the video, love it so much

[@jogurtterminator2035]

bro is finally back omg i love your videos man!

[@eclipseeffigy]

Great video Wirtual & team, well done!! Excellent scriptwriting, narrating and music choices. Unfortunate that the Midori video went on the wrong channel, perhaps otherwise we could've had relevant comments. 😂 This quality every 2 weeks is gonna be a crazy pace, mad props for going for that while streaming as well. Nt on your run and so nice of you not to be the first to get a cut WR & toot your own horn this video 😛

[@jackjacq7509]

TrackMania should totally make two different leaderboards one for intented track and one for shortcuts

[@iluvatarchem]

Nadeo can't even make a dedicated broadcast for their E sports. Doing separate leaderboards is pure fantasy

[@MegaBaddays]

Faster = better. Simple as that. Whats next, leaderboard for playing on 60Hz monitot, leaderboard for playing blindfolded, etc?

[@James-H84]

Many speedrunning communities have different style of speed runs so this is not such a strange idea.

[@adamsjoberrg]

@@iluvatarchem truth. Nadeo was blessed with making the best racing game ever on a whim it feels like but never ever managed to bring around its true potential...

[@iluvatarchem]

@@adamsjoberrg they do some things like the console release but yes the upper ranks of Nadeo are complete morons

[@BananaChair89]

16:12 art of rally's soundtrack hits so incredibly hard

[@kitthekat6844]

That part is so good! Wirtual (or whoever edited this) really nailed it with the music choice!

[@non_cinical_.1017]

Man I love Wirtual so much! His videos are so good and relaxing. I love these history type vids soo much. Ty Wirtual🙂

[@butitwasmekrach1164]

Your soundtrack choice and taste is sublime, good job
