Made it to the mermaid boss for the first time yesterday with 30hp. I’ve learned everything I know from this series... so naturally I died within 30 seconds because I didn’t know what to do at that point

[@alaskansalmon8666]

That’s why u watch NL and MALF brother. U get some pog and some fox. Btw just cook some bombs then throw them at her

[@halo7172]

Bahahahaha. That’s a dumbbbbb move man. I love NL more than any other YT’er but even he’ll agree his Spelunky 2 knowledge is piss poor. Take his number one tendency for example: hitting a pot and instinctively/instantly running as fast as he can into it. Like in this video! 😂 will he ever learn? No, most definitely not. It’s the pots fault, not his. Duh. But yeah watch MALF and you’ll improve drastically.

[@brendans.3421]

@@halo7172 I think my number 1 problem is patience. I hate to admit it, but about 50% of my jungle deaths are during the moon challenge and I run under a falling metal crate that I just mined under lmao

[@louisguillebeau494]

Yeah, but then you'd have to watch MALF, and I don't want that

[@ShivyBri]

*Looks at video length* Either he dies about 6 times in the caves, dies at olmec twice, or wins a run.

my guess as well, but we were wrong.

14:35 In one of the recent patches they gave Van Horsling LASIK surgery, so he's not supposed to miss his shots anymore. So far he's hitting perfect 100% for me, so I'd say your concern was unwarranted Edit: 18:30 break the bone block under the pushable block to drop it, wait for the mole to gtfo, then get the idol. I am legend

[@nullanma5134]

This really was an exemplary run. Even though it ended on the ice caves I really have to commend NL for how far he persevered and the fact that he was able to play so carefully and survive with that curse. Really good focus and mental attitude. Great stuff.

Thank you Null, I appreciate it

"A hired help WE didn't even activate." On contraire, I think you activated him when you threw the arrow at the vampire.

[@nicolassiebert414]

Nothing brings me greater joy than seeing a next video pop-up while the run is doing just fine. I said "Oh no" right before NL screamed "NOOOOOO!"

[@LainiWeiz]

It's kind of remarkable some of the plays NL can pull off now, like genuinely impressive stuff, then he whips pots and runs right into them without even thinking for a second there could be an enemy in there, even when it's already happened several times on the run >.

[@rodion1056]

It's funny, I worked at Subway when the "yoga mat" thing happened. The recipe got changed very quickly to remove those preservatives and almost immediately customers started complaining that the bread didn't taste as good as it used to.

[@Jojoman103]

Helpful tip: If you have a jetpack and want to avoid the yeti cave, you can avoid it entirely. See, the Ice Caves are just one long level, so if you have climbing gloves, jetpack or any verticality at all and dont need the items the yetis give, you can just avoid the yeti cave altogether Also every time this man says volcania instead of volcana, my heart sinks a little lower

[@marmeg5238]

You don't have to go to the wet fur cave in 5-1, Egg. You can just float/fly/climb down to the bottom.

Honestly probably my favourite part of these videos is seeing everything going great then seeing the suggested video pop up and trying to guess how it’s all going to fall apart. Keep up the good work!

[@baseballgenius3]

Probably the most important level feeling to pay attention to is the “my voice echoes in here”. Large levels can be very easy to run out of time then scramble… and maybe even get cursed!

NL you don't have to go through the wet fur area when you have climbers and a jet pack! You can just skip it by descending. Its way safer, especially when you don't need the items from the yeti's.

here's my 5 cents, i like to watch nl's let's plays because of the commentary. english isn't my first language, but my irl manner of speaking is sort of similar to nl's, and i learn subtle aspects of speech from him.

Hey NL you should go to the middle door on floor 1-4. It only opens when your cursed. Love the videos man.

Today I hope NL has learned that no hired Help gets to walk free, they must be killed on sight

[@furtado704]

I kinda want a video listing NL's deaths and ranking them in the Derek scale...

[@TheBootyholeBandit]

Oh that tilt at the end is real. Great video nonetheless also, NL needs to be more careful in the ice caves cause everytime for the past few runs he always says something like "We're fine." Or "Ok, so as long as..." Then it usually goes downhill. I think the egg needs to just take that level as slow as possible until the end then he'll be pogged out of his freakin gourd my guy.

[@Northernlion]

nope

[@Romsecrets]

NL notices a potential threat that his jetpack won't help him avoid. "but i have a jetpack"

[@NearoC]

Really confused how NL is still confused about the udjat room, no other floor generation that isn't the udjat room looks remotely the same as the udjat room area. All other wooden doors are very tiny, basically nothing to the left and right of them, and other wider wood areas a) don't have ladders and b) don't have doors. So if it's not thin, and it does have door/ladder it's udjat baby.

[@nigelpoi]

I audibly pogged out of my freaking gourd when NL got to Volcania then whip slapped a vampire and roped a bat, truly incredible plays. Then the death afterwards just CRUSHED my soul. I'm pretty sure that Hired Help was activated when you threw the arrow at the vampire and missed shortly before it happened. Either way, another incredible video, can't wait for more!

[@CrobatmanIamthenight]

It seems ryan didnt see the study were subway bread is basically cake due to how much suger is in it.

[@conoraq]

14:35 NL was blaming the game for this death and yet I saw it coming as soon as he decided to go back down and go up the other side. Engaging vampires unnecessarily while unarmed, above conveyor belts leading into a spike pit, with hired helps active... Pretty predictable how that would end.
