I think Rek is the only person I’ve seen in this Odd Run Out series who based their guess on something other than the game play. Guy is an outside the box thinker

[@arsenalzocker]

its the gravel, run 3 placed gravel in the end and its not effected by the gravel falling think its staying MID AIR why didnt anyone notice that

The way he actually found out which one is fake is INSANE. Not only that he spotted the SpeedrunIGT, he figured out that the guy was using old mechanics with newest version of speedrunIGT. Keep doing these, they're so good!

Your observation skills are out of this world. No spoilers but damn, that was a huge guess. You really know how to think outside the box and that's what's so enticing about you solving puzzles, challenges, etc.

i recognized him too, he's also near the top of the ranked leaderboards right now nerdi is wrong though about the sodium menu, the version of sodium that has the nonvanilla menu in game hasn't been allowed for a while. this run must be pretty old

[@crefour5866]

whats hilarious is that i totally missed the details rek was focusing on, i just assumed #3 was fake because the person was named beanman2009

It looks like the window Rek was watching had a gray box covering the chat, so he wouldn't have been able to see the name. I forget which parts of the video shows it but it was definitely there.

yea thanks i didnt know how either

[@chillguy5191]

That was insane especially the ending and the build up congrats .

[@jesterwire]

I read the title as “Created Speedrunner” and for a second I thought some people were born with the knowledge of speedrunning and a created speedrunner means someone that learnt it.

[@Badvait]

the speedrun IGT thing was the biggest brain play i have ever seen in this series

[@electra_]

I was guessing #3 because well the slow swimming at the start, plus numerous mistakes in the bastion like falling down, felt odd for a run of that fast time and the use of an ocean exposed stronghold would be a good choice for a cheater as it means they wouldn't have to do a convincing fake triangulation / calculator / preemptive (anything you already know where it is but have to pretend you dont' would be harder to fake)

[@Carsverse21]

While in end, he placed obsidian on a floating block of gravel

Hey rek! Day 3 of asking! I know you probably won’t read this but I have seen how well you’ve gotten at speedrunning!! Can you please post a full tutorial about how you speedrun, like the 15 Minecraft’s at once, how you find chests, how you build the portal under water, how you find the bastion, fortress, strong hold and both 0-cycle and 1-cycle! Thanks if you do!! and the different type of bastions where gold is and how to identify them

[@camslam8245]

For the 15 minecraft instances, look up specnr multi-instance wall setup. For the rest of it, practice helps a lot, but k4yfour and couriway are good for speedrunning tips. A lot of them are older videos, but they are still good.

[@ColerfulOfficial]

I am not good at minecraft speedruns... but.. I do remember it really well, that you do need chunk borders for like something connected to treasures, and Speedruners do use them like all the time now. Yet i werent able to think about that obvious thing, till rekrap pointed out that this is the newest run and dude were not doing it. Now i see how cheted speedruns are going throw with all obvious mistakes, and how hard it is to see it all.

Hey Rek, great Vid, but i wouldve looked at it like that: this is on the leaderboard, so it has to be a decently skilled player, right, but the 3rd person messed too much up (if you mess it up less, then its probably because of the nervousness, but he was just messing up too much) and the others all just mess up like less.
