[@Sora-jl4se]

@@MysteriumFX let's say you roll a six-sided die with the intention of getting a six, right? If you roll it once, that's a 1/6 chance of getting a six, and you can repeatedly roll until you get a six. But if you roll 50 dice all at once, each with a 1/6 chance of landing on a six, there's a very very high chance that some of those 50 dice *will* land a six. It's like flipping a coin, you'll eventually land on heads or tails after enough flips!

I mean, supposedly, even the mojang developer that spoke to dream during the cheating scandal said it was all luck based but here we are, on a video that explains the current strategies that are regularly used in Minecraft speedruns

[@Nat_the_Chicken]

@@TheOneWhoHasABadName Well, it _is_ technically all luck-based (or, as gamers like to call it, RNG), because where everything is in your world will be determined by a randomly generated seed each time. So the guy in chat and the Mojang dev are both right. But the more tools you have to determine what's around you, and even analyze the world generation patterns, the less your run is likely to die because of bad luck. So you don't _eliminate_ luck, you _overcome_ it, hence the title.

I was expecting to know everything presented here, but I didn't know divine. Entity counting was something I learned in 2015/16 when I started playing on PVP servers. One of my first factionmates taught it to me to show me how to find bases.

[@BlueCyann]

Yeah it's weird how many speedrunning tactics were borrowed from stuff like factions servers, or even basic survival. (There's a micro-strat for blowing up TNT underwater that I first learned about while watching SMP youtubers at least that long ago.) But it still requires someone thinking about how and why these things would be helpful in going faster. Like the only reason the bastion-finding strat doesn't result in more false positives than it does is because bastion piglins (and hoglins) are accounted for separately from other nether mobs and entities. Comparing your E values to other F3 data (not talked about in this video) lets you know you're not just looking at an abnormally large concentration of random nether mobs. The TNT strat would never have been useful prior to ocean strats since before that, runners who had TNT had no reason to seek out an ocean, and runners who were in an ocean had no way of getting TNT.

[@rayandthejets]

ALSO, people run and tower up at the north or south of the end island, because it decreases the chances of the dragon circling a pillar. If I remember correctly, this is because it will circle the pillar opposite you, but there is no pillar directly north or south, so it won’t circle, but that may be wrong.

[@daniellee4003]

The pausing rules are probably the most complicated speedrunning rules I've ever seen :l I dislike the retiming, but I'm at least ok with "pauses are retimed to 10 seconds if they're longer" bit: you still lose time from pausing. The "you can just ask for any random pause to be untimed so long as you give a valid reason" is really odd. It stands out as more "we think lots of 'runners' will be kids who would otherwise start screaming at their parents". I've never seen anything like it in any other speedrunning group, it seems so... unnecessary. Especially when runs have to be sub-13 minute for it to be applied anyway: pause breaks are generally used only in 12+ hour runs so that truly obsessive people don't literally kill themselves speedrunning. At the end of the day it doesn't affect me, and it's mostly just a shitload of work for the mods: ie. not my problem lol Edit: Edited bc at first I misread the rules, almost as if they're stupid complicated.

[@elizabethkasner5799]

another fun new strategy in the midst of being developed by fwag is the zero cycle, which relies on a different set of rng based on the seed, rather than the rng of the dragon perching fast

[@BlueCyann]

Man I hope that works out fully some day. I'm not super hopeful though. You get one of the very best 1.16 RSG runners (TheeSizzler), stick him in the perfect scenario for a low-risk zero cycle (a scouted seed tournament), give him 8 or 9 seeds to try it on, and NONE of them work out -- it's not ready for prime time. And nobody else who tried a zero cycle in that tournament succeeded either. Half-bow is looking good though. I doubt you'll ever see it in a WR run or a close-call PB but it's way more reliable and low-variance for any other purpose.
