I did a "Nuzlocke" of Thousand Year Door

SUBSCRIBE TO BRONGLE: ‪@BronglesCan‬
Thousand Year Door has a wide variety of attacks that Mario can use, but unfortunately they were not all created equal. Most experienced players of the game tend to favor a select few strong ones. So for this challenge, I decided to try and see if I could beat Paper Mario The Thousand Year Door while only using each attack, item, and special move a single time. This way I'd have to use pretty much everything the game had to offer!

I would argue every Individual kind of first strike count as their own moves. With the different hammers and jumps, and Each partner move, that would give you some good hits.

[@RolyatSille]

I’d argue the same, especially since only Koops and Bobbery can trigger First Strikes, IIRC. Goombella tattles, Flurry’s blow can’t trigger fights, Yoshi goes fast, Vivian hides, and Mowz detects Star Pieces and chests(?) if I recall right. So Jump, Hammer, Bomb, and Shell First Strikes I could see being added as a reasonable coverage for First Strike options. It incentivizes planning with them too to ensure you’re using the jump/hammer at the optimal time with the optimal version.

[@tinyclover3849]

yeah but didn't he skip optional fights so he'd have no way to use first strikes edit: nvm. i didn't know about the riddle tower

[@shyguyissoawesomeguys]

i see the argument but i don't really agree. all four first strike attacks are JUST the same moves that are used in battle; jump, hammer, koops' base attack, and bobbery's base attack. idk if it's the same in the original version but even the jump and hammer commands use the same action commands first strike or not, so they really are the exact same move

[@Totomeister]

@@RolyatSille it is possible to First Strike with Yoshi while riding him, but only when falling on an enemy from above, since he can't jump high. It's super situational and only happend to me once on accident and probably wouldn't help in this run anyway

I literally switched from normal subscribed to all videos after laughing at that gag. Really was the difference maker that proved to me "yep, I definitely don't want to miss a single one of this guy's videos. Well done Bringle/Brongle!

[@Skywolve1998]

Smallant made a great point in one of his SMO challenge videos that you could come up with a really clever name for a challenge, but if it's not obvious from an outside perspective what you're doing, it's not prone to pique their interest. Calling it a Nuzlocke here is pretty good, since that term alone will grab a lot of people's attention. But you very well could have just gone with "Thousand Year Door but I can only use each move once" Either way, the thumbnail was really good at conveying the challenge and does a lot of heavy lifting.

[@PsiPaula4]

I disagree. Nuzlocke was a bad title for this. I wasn't interested in this video at all until I saw the title someone gave this with the extension DeArrow, "Beating Paper Mario: The Thousand Year Door while only using each move once." Nuzlocke makes it sound like if a partner is KO'd, they can't be used in battle anymore, which doesn't sound interesting. "Thousand Year Door but I can only use each move once" would convey what this is about far better.

[@Barely_Edited]

@@PsiPaula4nah, the thumbnail makes it immediately super obvious what it’s actually referring to. Like you said, the other challenge would be super lame, so it doesn’t take a lot to think what it actually means I don’t disagree that a simpler title would also work, but I don’t think it does anything to actually put people paying attention off of the video

[@PsiPaula4]

​@@Barely_Edited Idk I looked at the title for a second and then my eyes just moved on because what it made it sound like didn't interest me. Until, again, some days later when it appeared again and it was given a more accurate DeArrow title. I can't be the only one who was turned off by the title. Frankly we shouldn't have to rely solely on a thumbnail to understand what a video's about. Fact of the matter is "Nuzlocke" says nothing about this video. It's like calling a tomato a carrot.

[@JamesP7]

⁠​⁠@@PsiPaula4I knew exactly what he meant by the title, because I know what a Nuzlocke is from Pokemon challenge runs. And if I didn’t, the thumbnail gives it away. You’re the one at fault for ignoring the thumbnail if you were so thrown off by a fitting term in the title…

[@PsiPaula4]

@@JamesP7 But it's not fitting at all. As a Pokemon fan I know what a Nuzlocke is and this isn't even close to what a Nuzlocke is. What comes to mind with one is Pokemon are dead if they are KO'd. Therefore, it sounds like when partners are KO'd, they're dead. My point is titles should be matter of fact. Would it have been a crime if the title for this was "TTYD But I can only use each move once"? Give me a good reason why we should require a thumbnail to get what a video's about. You should be trying your best to reel viewers in. Title wasn't interesting at all, so my eyes kept going down the list for something else.

How about a "One attack per fight" challenge? Essentially, you use one attack for the ENTIRE fight. So if Yoshi uses Gulp and that's your first offensive attack, then Mario can't attck at all, and Yoshi can only continue using Gulp attack

for the 4 bones in the riddle tower I think you could also grind high enough levels for the first attack badge to kill the enemies without getting into combat, as you're definitely not attacking them if u never exit the overworld.

This is one of the best TTYD videos in all of youtube! The gameplay was extremely interesting. I've never seen so much move variety in an RPG playthrough. The ruleset didn't feel arbitrary at all. In fact, I wish there was a mod that was a little easier version of this, where different moves have a different number of lifetime uses. Only thing this video was missing was maybe some more updates throughout about how many moves you have left. The best part was seeing Zess T's items get used. Would be funny to play through the game using only food or something lol. Anyways, I know you probably won't feel like trying this MoveLocke challenge again for a while because some fights are a big pain, but I would be very interested in an eventual attempt #2 or a Pit of 100 Trials with this.

[@hoodedman6579]

Note that Gale Force has an extra factor in determining its chance, that being the level difference between you and the enemy. If it's higher, it becomes harder, and vice versa. As a result, you had, at most, a 72% chance for each Magikoopa (assuming you were level 9 based on the stage), and it was likely was lower than that. This aspect is most noticeable for the Amayzee Dayzee (who has a base chance of 60% but is level 100, so you need to be level 41 to have any chance at all) and the Atomic Boo (who has a base chance of 10 and is level 52), though it's probably always going to be an issue in any of your challenge runs, and makes a Gale Force strategy in the last part of the pit a lot worse than it might look, as almost all enemies in the last ten floors have pretty high base Gale Force chances (usually 75-80%) but their levels are around 35. Note that Bob-Ulks only have a 10% chance but they're already the easiest enemy there anyway, and Amayzee Dayzees are of course basically impossible. This is also why some enemies have a higher than 100% base Gale Force chance; this assures that some of the weakest enemies will always be pushed away with it, if you are so inclined to use it on them for some reason.

Honestly “movelocke” is not a bad name. This ruleset could be cool for other things like Pokémon too. Maybe not like only one use of a move ever, but maybe like you get to use the move as many times as you’d like in a fight but then after that fight you can never use it again

I do really love your videos man, and I appreciate this one all the same! I gott say though, and nothing bad meant by it (especially since you went through the trouble of trying to gauge what'd be the best way to implement it): I think the reliance on super-guarding just isn't fun from a viewing stand-point. It should definitely have been included as "a move", in the rule-set. However; and maybe this is something you could do a follow-up video on if you'd like; I think if the rules had been that "You can only use any one move IN ONE BATTLE" (rather than 'once in the game'), maybe it would have been more feasible to do, without super-guarding? It would also introduce more strategy, in terms of: "In what singular battle, is super-guarding the most valuable?".

For the fuzzies fight, you should’ve kept the flower and regular fuzzie alive so there’s less empty space on the battlefield for the green fuzzies to replicate! For the regular fuzzy, when it gets to low HP, just let it hit you so it regains some HP, and you said yourself the flower fuzzy hitting you doesn’t really matter. This strategy would heavily lower the amount of luck, and therefore time, that fight took
