[@christianoreski5682]

Kaizo metroid great!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@AsherGames]

that was the most stressful, horrifying run I've ever seen. amazing work

[@cupcakecrusader]

Yeahlight, what a legend

[@tonysimon8060]

And what about oojujo who donated 10k for sgdq and about a month ago another 10k to GPB I believe

[@playstationarusu]

That hell run had me sweating. Everyone dead silent just listening to the lower norfair theme was kinda intense. Great stuff Oats

[@NerfPlayeR135]

2:03:33 Oats gets his revenge for all the deaths he suffered to Ridley in his Super Metroid Impossible run at AGDQ 2020.

[@This1s4Reimer]

Incredible skill. Oats is the GOAT.

[@retrogarden]

That lower Norfair hell run that starts at 2:05:15 in the video had me on edge for a good solid few minutes. What a run!

[@notorioustim10]

😳

[@TalaraNi]

So awesome. This looks absurdly difficult (it is a Kaizo), and Oats is absurdly skilled. I quite enjoyed the rhyming donations. The announcer didn't even get tongue-tied, either. Impressive. The whole run had some great energy. Good stuff.

[@rubemevangelista3868]

I love the "oh gosh" she let out at the end xD

[@PlutoDarknight]

Char_bunny is a strong host

[@SpunkyDunk]

I like this donation announcer. You can tell she puts her heart and soul into this.

[@MoonAnime]

The ambience and music of this game works like wonder with the super difficult, stressful gameplay on display here. Commentators with the chill voices too. This run is an experience.

[@arcticfox111]

Awesome to see this run! I remember being there when oats finally got the deathless run. Much love to him and the community.

[@SwitcherooU]

It's all just so great, isn't it? A game from our childhoods (sort of), a very popular and interesting runner, a great couch, a legend on the mic...it doesn't get any better.

[@sly1292]

2:05:17 for that flawless lava hell dive. Holy moly that was intense.

[@EebstertheGreat]

1:54:00 Those mochtroids actually deal a lot of damage in the original game, too. Not a lot of people know this, but the average dps of a mochtroid is actually higher than a metroid! Metroids deal 3 damage every 4/8/16 frames (with power/varia/gravity suit), while mochtroids deal 90/45/22 damage every 80 frames. Thus, mochtroids deal an average of 1.125 dmg per frame without suits, while metroids deal only 0.75, making the mochtroids 50% more powerful. But they die so easily and take so long before their first hit, most people never take damage from them at all. As for the lore, mochtroids are the Space Pirates' first failed attempt to clone the baby metroid. The name is like "mock-troid," as in "fake metroid."

[@Seraphima249]

This is one of the most impressive pieces of videogames i have watched in my life. Mad respects to Oatsngoats the MADLAD!

[@marcgii]

Hell yeah the legend is back! I wish I could have seen this live. The Super Metroid Impossible run he did a while ago is one of my all time favorite GDQ runs.

[@LitCactus]

Oats stays so chill. What an incredible runner!!

[@leobovine]

The amount of psychological preparation you must go through to finish a run of this caliber in an event... you can't get tired, can't give up and keep motivated. Really amazing!

[@SirMrNick]

Love watching Oats do these nutty Metroid mods

[@moderusprime]

The "Oh Gosh" at the end says it all. Amazing run.

[@martinfinch5011]

lol, i caught that too

[@Vitriolguy]

yeah

[@karnnakz2]

Oats is just too good at metroid. Really impressive prep and run. Awesome job!

[@pipdog9929]

Oats and the couch always deliver amazing experiences, my favorite run is still Super Metroid Impossible from 2020.

[@maxmotis8647]

57:05 just leaving this here so I can find that poem again. This one is by far the best one imo.

[@nothankswtf]

That was some flawless execution!

[@IC33]

OMG Oats! My jaw was dropped to the floor for the ENTIRETY of this run 👏🤩🎉🥳🎊

[@aknightofcamelot]

I'm only eight minutes and super stressed out. Holy shit, this is epic.

[@RadiantRemnant]

And here I thought the impossible run was the height of madness. Amazing run Oats sheesh

[@noobicorn_gamer]

I loooooove what you guys did with the emote animation on the bottom part of the stream. This year was yet again an absolute blast! Thank you always, GDQ :)

[@shaneg9081]

Stressful to watch, will not play. GJ Oats.

[@joaomcarmo]

This was truely amazing!

[@kaldriversson]

Kaizo Mario is a special sort of hell. Kazio Metroid........ jmfc why does it even exist. I love this game and I haven't seen a single screen I could clear. Oats is on another level for sure.

[@KamiYuryo]

Incredible run ! GG !

[@mshenay]

Amazing run, and you’re so polite! Just like you always are on stream each week ;3

[@Zelinkokitsune]

Taunt the Animals% gotta love it!

[@Kikaheki]

Super Metroid runs are always fun to watch. Timless classic.

[@grambottle033]

That hell run at 2:05:15 is easily the best thing I've ever seen from a GDQ. Holy shit.

[@Looldeos]

Awesome run! Congrats to Oats and good job to everyone involved, both the commentators and the host were also great!

[@ziptnf]

I don't have even remotely the amount of patience it would take to run this game. Incredible. This game looks absolutely impossible but he handles it no problem.

[@christianmu6220]

oats might be the best speedrunner at any game. dude is a living legend.

[@crazeejaycee1617]

that was amazing. the skill oats showed was stunning. first time i've ever seen a kaizo super metroid run and he made it look easy

[@GoD_Dano]

I wasn't the one playing and that acid part after Ridley got me stressed AF D:, awesome gameplay dude

[@Mesyrr]

The developer intended reason for unequipping items, was for the special beam attacks, which required you to only have Charge and one beam type equipped to execute. The other tricks we do are just happy accidents :)

[@Waldimart]

Goatly amazing run!

[@TheTakanome]

Just, wow! Oats is amazing!

[@DontMockMySmock]

Yowza, what a spicy run! Congrats Oats!

[@thatweirdgamer9214]

I had no idea there was such thing as Kaizo Metroid but I knew I had to watch as soon as I saw it. There’s something so funny to me to see that it’s practically Celeste level design inside of Metroid

[@martingraham801]

There is skill, and then legends like this exist. What an incredible run.

[@Imstillhangintherethankgod]

This is how I saw Metroid when I played it for the first time

[@akun50]

Room 2 is where I would be saying "HOLY F**K NO!", so all the more power to Oatsngoats.

[@Sir_Leelord]

loved the part at 44:10 where he executed that bomb jump trick

[@Tony_Cardoza]

That was badass.

[@ExtremeAce]

Oats is indeed the goat. What a great run. I can't even do SMI, I won't be any match for Kaizo lol

[@BIG_SPRTE47]

I DIDNT KNOW THAT YALL WERE IN PERSON AGAIN, IM SO HAPPY

[@ILikeCHEEZ9]

It's runs like this where I'm holding my breath while sitting at my desk watching.

[@sethll7]

There are some parts around 1 hr and 8min into the video where the stream video freezes

[@sidewindeyes5121]

I have probably seen this 4 Times. But i still clench my asscheeks everytime Oats has to make a really difficult walljump och anything! 😂

[@totallyaploy1824]

You can be in the acid for less time than my reaction time, great run

[@jeanief.6036]

Props to Oats for having the mental fortitude to run that. It looked like the most unfun game I've ever seen.

[@1234567895182]

This NEEDS to come back soon

[@MidanMagistrate]

So nice to see Oats at another GDQ

[@lalocompi]

This is way too impressive

[@camwyn256]

Nice save, right at the beginning of the run

[@ZUUL_93]

I felt that “Oh, gosh” at the end. 😂

[@montlejohnbojangles8937]

God I love to see my boy Oats lay it down.

[@BenJPas]

Donos are fine.

[@LitCactus]

*goat noises* - Three goats in a trench coat

[@sage5296]

Just... WOW

[@rainh]

The Hell Room starts at 2:05:14

[@tame1773]

Kaiiiiizooooooo!

[@camwyn256]

Kaiiiizooooats

[@jessevstheworld5087]

Wild

[@mariothane8754]

This is the run when Samus earned her title as greatest bounty hunter.

[@HeroineDark]

When you save the animals, you kill a run. Thank you for saving another's run!

[@GordonGordon]

What the fruit man. This is amazing

[@neilkloppenborg8399]

Damn, Oats!

[@Deplissee]

"Oh gosh!" 😂

[@sushimandaddi]

Yooooooo I love speed crabs

[@Ciri751]

METROID IS THE BEST NINTENDO GAME,ANYONE WHO DOSEN'T AGREE...has a valid opinion, and I won't argue.

[@licensedprofessional4742]

That’s why he’s the goat 😂

[@Merrinen]

Oh gosh.

[@xectilus5530]

Epic hell run at 2:05:13

[@EinherjarMadCat]

Oh, god. The Impossible Speedrun.

[@jeremygregorio7472]

I want to see kaizo Barney the purple dinosaur for Sega Genesis

[@AnotherSeeker]

Go Oatsy Go. YE YE!

[@adummy9664]

Now I'm wondering what the jape with using X-Ray in the save rooms is all about after someone mentioned it multiple times...

[@NerfPlayeR135]

Metroid Prime reference?

[@nomukun1138]

Oats plays a lot of crummy fanmade remakes of Super Metroid that poorly communicate the way forward or hide secrets in places that can't be guessed. He can end up lost for a long time while everyone gets more and more frustrated. Because the original Super Metroid never hid secrets in a save room, some members of chat seem to think searching the save rooms for secrets is a very clever idea Oats would never think of himself. It's become a joke in Oats's chat.

[@annelieniedzwitzki1389]

I was holding my breath with couch from 2:05:23 to 2:08:20 💀

[@josephtommasi2621]

Bro is a god

[@nokiot9]

WE WANT KAIZO CUPHEAD!!!

[@iamverywitty]

does anybody know what the "collect 2042" message embedded in the wall at 56:22 is about?

[@iamverywitty]

ah wait, on another check when he's going through there the "right" way at 1:13:38, it looks like it's saying to get 20 missiles, 4 super missiles, and 2 super bombs. I'm gonna feel stupid if this is something that gets answered by the end of the run...but I'll leave these comments for posterity and mockery, if so

[@thealmanancy9020]

What's gonna happen next year, Kaizo Super Metroid Impossible?

[@eleronpfoutz7823]

Oats' favorite Pokémon is Exeggcute.

[@atlys258]

Lmfao right as I was wondering if/when and how much he'll donate, Yeahlight (Idk how it's spelled) straight up Kool-Aid man's through the door with an $11,111 dono 😳 Idk what that guy does for work, but he sure does the hell out of it 😂😂

[@squaresoft01]

just for the record, this run had a 1 minute difference from the kaizo SM run down to the second. lol what a weird coincidence.

[@mattwecrazy3236]

Wow .

[@Lion-rf8xi]

Who is knew the speed running community was so big.

[@phillyredsox9195]

Deaths. 9. Energy. 6+3=9. Missiles. 5+4=9. Whoa.

[@TheShepherd82]

Is that speedrunner from germany ?

[@monapon8169]

no DEER FORCE?

[@witchfynder_finder]

Normally when the donations all get on a single bit it's obnoxious puns that ruin watching the run, but all these rhymes people sent in were really really impressive and char_bunny reading them all out without missing a beat is just perfection.

[@DarkKen87]

Char bunny reading some of those donos was incredible

[@camwyn256]

Favorite Pokémon? Charlzard

[@ICountFrom0]

Anybody want to explain the joke? "Scan the save room" Crash trap?

[@sway_onthetrail]

I just realized they light up who is talking so you know who is despite the masks. Totally missed that live.
