Hollow Knight Speedrun - Pantheon 1 in

Got a few requests to make this one public ^^ I got this a while ago, but for those who are interested, this is the current pantheon 1 world record. I do intend to improve the time to at least 2:43 at some point.
Charms - Steady Body, Fury of the Fallen, Unbreakable Strength, Flukenest, Quick Slash, Nail Master's Glory

And I thought my 7 minutes was fast… This is insane! Well done!

[@Spoonsei]

7 minutes is very fast, my first clear was like 11 minutes! Thanks ^^

[@goldencookie5456]

@@Spoonsei Oh my first clear was also 11 minutes. I just did it now.

[@Spoonsei]

@@goldencookie5456 Oh nice! GGs ^^

[@samitannir6830]

@@Spoonsei damn same here wtf. mine was 10:44 and I did it today. Gotta say I hated the vengefly king because he wasted so much time, this cheese makes me feel better that there is a way to end it faster

[@engineergaming3830]

I just went with high dmg but slow attack rate and got 7.11

[@windbringer9890]

very impressive! i think you have secured your spot as the best pantheon speed runner ever

[@Spoonsei]

Thanks! I’m doing my best ^^ but there are plenty of very skilled players

[@Sardine_Slayer]

@@Spoonsei Like remto

[@Spoonsei]

@@Sardine_Slayer yeah remto is a very solid runner ^^

[@Sardine_Slayer]

@@Spoonsei I think his is the best hollow knight player of all time just a little bit better then you I'll say

[@kingmaple9252]

@@Sardine_Slayerwell definitely not in pantheons right now as spoon as WR in all of them. Also maybe chill out with telling someone that someone else is better than them in response to them showing they are currently the best in the world at something? Like I might be overreacting, but this must take quite a lot of effort to be best in the world at something, so when you finally do it and show it to the world, it might not feel the greatest for someone to say: “Hey I know this is world record and objectively the best anyone has ever done this, but someone is just better than you in my opinion even if you have the objective world record” you know?

[@nefariousnexis6233]

When I watched your P5 run, I was insanely impressed, but this was an absolute steamroller of a run. Congrats, dude!

[@Spoonsei]

Thanks :3

[@Person-hl5ur]

Whoa! This was such a clean run! Good job!

[@theox401]

Well done! Very impressive!

[@_lumos4029]

this is so clean

[@kyrat9696]

you’re the best bro, what a sick run

[@the33rdguy]

I can def see the areas that could have been slightly improved on which could lead to a 43 or 42, but this is a fantastic feet. I am so inspired by you. Nice!!! I can't wait to see more :).

[@Spoonsei]

Yeah I’d like to go for a 2:42 at some point ^^ and thanks means a lot

[@bunnywizard_tammy223]

this is such an impressive run, spoon!

[@Spoonsei]

Thanks!

[@crushermjm]

Bruh AGAIN?! I love your dedication

[@Spoonsei]

Means a lot ^^

Thanks a bunch ^^ hahaha

Another pantheon run lol Great job Spoonsei

[@Sogard791]

Really well done. Dung Defender going down before the scream is done 😆

[@Sessa.]

Clean & spicy 🌶️

[@lucithedemonminer]

@@Spoonsei Theyre right though! Spoonsei, youve got me tempted to get back into pantheon speedruns.

[@Spoonsei]

@@lucithedemonminer would love to see it ^^

[@morithemonster9808]

Me (casual player) : killing vengefly king takes too long when i challenge pantheon 1, maybe i can pick up a strat from the speedrunners The Speedrunners:

[@Aquiteprolificcommenter]

Good run, Spoonsei! Also, question: What made you go on a journey to claim all the pantheons world records?

[@Spoonsei]

I just realized there was so much that wasn't optimized with the flukes setup ^^ after taking P1 and P5 I figured it might be worth trying the others

[@bonkzpk5578]

Damn wtf nice!

[@DanJamTam]

Thats great

[@llawliet1522]

yooo very cool

[@Sardine_Slayer]

Would love to see your sum of best, every time I watch this I'm like ''its impossible to beat it.'' Do you have all your gold segments recorded?

[@Spoonsei]

Sadly I don’t think I have some of the older ones, but I’ve been thinking about compiling what I do have

[@Sardine_Slayer]

@@Spoonsei please do because 2:3X is insane even for a SOB run my SOB is 2:51 or something lol. Try for some more gold splits.

[@Spoonsei]

@@Sardine_Slayer I’ll definitely consider it ^^

[@seiaikes2570]

awesome

My man

[@shadinqtr]

Hey, this person's pretty neat

[@Sardine_Slayer]

Yay its public

[@projecteer4498]

any reason not to fluke the nail masters at the end? Regardless crazy food run! So sick to see how good you people are getting at this game lol

[@Spoonsei]

You mean for the final hit?

[@projecteer4498]

@@Spoonsei Just in general for when Mato comes out. I had expected you to fluke them after you did the dash to the left after their scream since you had quite a bit of soul and they were in the same place to get damaged by the same cast so was just interested as to why you opted to nail instead

[@Spoonsei]

@@projecteer4498 non-shaman flukes generally aren’t going to do more dps then fury + strength + quick slash nail hits unless there’s an opportunity to make the flukes multihit on the same enemy

[@projecteer4498]

@@Spoonsei ah I see, thanks for insight!

[@chaarliee7250]

ILL MAKE YOU SAY HOW PROOOOOUD YOU ARE OF ME SO STAY AWAKE JUST LOOOOOONG ENOUGH TO SEE MY WAYYYYYYYYYYY

[@YomiLearn]

I didn't realize you were a world record holder XD

[@Spoonsei]

I play a bit too much Hollow Knight x]

[@erierierierierie]

why do you do the jump in the godseeker room? cant you barely get a 3rd dash from the floor?

[@Spoonsei]

It's slower to walk in that room ^^ I think you can dash a third time, but I haven't noticed it saving time

[@mrkssr]

gg :)

[@Spoonsei]

^^ thanks

[@CyanicCore]

No nailmaster bow?

[@Sapinho_Gameplays]

Hello! I want to know how to have five masks in a godseeker mode save.

[@SpenferMC]

Oh god thats fast i only can do like 5 33 Edit: what charms did you used

[@Spoonsei]

I'll put them in the description when I get back to my computer ^^

[@truthwatcher2096]

Steady body Dream wielder Fury of the fallen Unbreakable strength Flukenest Quick slash

[@Spoonsei]

@@truthwatcher2096 almost correct except I use nail masters glory instead of dream wielder and I use quick slash instead of shaman stone ^^

[@truthwatcher2096]

@@Spoonsei ah dang I thought those dream nails were fast but the nail arts were faster. Edit: oh I had figured out the other ones by myself, my brain just autopiloted on Shaman stone after Flukenest but then I realised I left out Quick slash lol

[@KCSpeed]

@@Sardine_Slayer do you not plan on submitting to src? I’m surprised you’ve grinder your time so low, top 10 even, but no submission from you that I know of, regardless gg! Thats a really good time

[@Cartofiert]

I'm confuse, how is it 2:46 when on screen it says 3:02

[@Spoonsei]

The timer tracks only the time during the fights, and takes away the load screens ^^ the load screen time varies wildly depending on how good your PC is, so it wouldn’t be a fair comparison on speedrun.com to include load-times

[@IsaiBoizard]

+ 1 subscriber, can i have your build plzzzz

[@elderbug23]

Awesome! We can begin Godseeker mode with 5 shards ?

[@Spoonsei]

I just edited the save in the game files to 5 masks ^^ it's allowed for speedrun.com verification

[@elderbug23]

@@Spoonsei Awryt!

[@MMsMMsMMs]

its allowed to use any bug/glitch in the speedrun? (Except invencibility obviously)

[@Spoonsei]

Only bugs that are considered non major glitches by the speedrun community

[@MMsMMsMMs]

@@Spoonsei I know one that can make you attack on screen animations, is this allowed?

[@MMsMMsMMs]

I mean scream*

[@Spoonsei]

@@MMsMMsMMs it’s allowed if you take damage to do it because it requires specific timing. However there is a method to open your inventory to skip the scream animation, and that is not allowed

[@MMsMMsMMs]

@@Spoonsei didnt know that, thank you! One last question, the inventory skip is allowed on no hit runs?

[@KirillVesh]

What charms?

[@Sardine_Slayer]

Any tips for P1 speedruns?

[@Spoonsei]

My biggest tip would be to practice more than you think you need. Most people practice all the strategies until they feel comfortable and then mostly do speedrun attempts from there forward, but I'd suggest practicing more than running.

[@Sardine_Slayer]

@@Spoonsei I normal lose my runs to moss charger QK I just cant get the timings right
