Super Mario Bros. Warpless Speedrun in

[@MannifyYT2024]

Ladies and gentlemen, he is (unless there’s some really obscure history) the first person to break 2 55 barriers Jokes aside, I remember watching AndrewG’s 19:40 4 years ago and thinking “that’s insane! I feel like doing that in under 19 minutes would be impossible!” And here I am now, watching someone get 5 seconds under what my 8 year old self would have deemed impossible. You are the GOAT Niftski! Keep it up!

[@MannifyYT2024]

Also you uploaded this on my channel’s 2nd anniversary 🎉

[@GardenChess]

Crazy that niftski keeps setting records and we’re here in the right time to see it

[@GatuhAbazagh-rs2un]

I see you eberywhere

The New Era of Warpless has begun!! GGs on breaking the old Human Theory TAS of 18:54.99!!

[@CaptAzureSMB1]

Incredible. Just incredible. I remember when Kosmic made an 18:54 human theory run and now it’s real. Congrats!

[@HappyLeeHL]

Awesome speedrun. You're really bringing SMB speedrunning into a new level. Congrats on new WR!

[@Spidercola]

😮

[@kacperzimowski4626]

Not only SMB. He is also bringing BPM into the next level xd

[@cursedred_]

I just finished watching your tas video before this!

[@Bulbazorio]

why do you love breaking the 55 second barrier so much

[@AceDragonEmperor]

cause he's niftski

[@-xneon]

niftskButter

[@joethebrospeedruns]

just wait until he gets a 54 in 11x any%

[@nat_cat2923]

Cause this funny nomber

[@joethebrospeedruns]

wait he also got first 6:54 in walkathon i believe

[@aggebojkalos6518]

I literally joined the stream at the last 5 minutes of the run, best decision ever :) Well done Niftski, you truly are the king of SMB!

[@SuperSonic71087]

This is so exciting to see another second barrier go down in Warpless. Congrats man! Looking forward to seeing how much lower this will go!

[@BTGames2004]

DUDE WHAT A FREAKIN RUN! The fact you keep your nerve when your heart was almost constantly above 170+ and peaked at like 184 is massively insane!! Idk how you do it, but it was amazing nonetheless! GG and WP man you should be proud of yourself on such a feat! You’re a god tier SMB player bro wow!!

[@itsbidone]

DAMNNNN BOY. I can't believe to took you only 3 days to get 18:54 and day 1 and 2 both have 18:54 paces to world 8. Amazing work Niftski

[@TheMightyGiantDad]

Goated. Seeing you play in-person was amazing. Congratulations and I know you're gonna push this even further!

[@-12Sided]

Jesus. It felt like yesterday I saw Kosmic get sub-19. And here we are with Niftski the OG Mario GOAT with a sub-55. AGAIN 💀😂

[@wesmol8009]

shoutout the guy in chat at 16:11 for getting the time exactly correct lmao

[@generalbacon7476]

Cant say i understand most of whats happening but it is still super cool

[@decadakon1]

so imagine a bus picking someone up at a bus stop...

[@Pankaw]

A new era! Only fpgs, full fpgs, and 8-4 frames (and tas 8-2 lol) to be implemented from now =] GG!

[@Amqzinq]

huge gg, you're insane for using this route but this makes it even more impressive that you got it lol

[@thisisfyne]

Daaaamn bro 4-4 was soooo flawless o_O Congrats on the WR! Crazy stuff! That reaction at the end was genuine af!

[@benjaminaltman2871]

Niftski you do not get nearly enough recognition for your talent dedication and perseverance. congrats yet again for another magnificent record. keep it up!!!

[@mathgodpiextras]

Still picking my jaw up from the floor. Congrats on this bonkers achievement!

[@MrTylerWpg]

Here to see this after watching Summoning Salt's video again. Hell of a run!

[@phlanxsmurf]

This was incredible to watch. Summoningsalt sent me here from 3 years ago. The dedication is evident, it is amazing. Congratulations!

[@jujuisacitron]

I knew it ! I was on stream yesterday, but I say that i need to go soon, so I miss a new WR :( But congrats as always, this one is HUGE

[@-12Sided]

Jesus. It felt like yesterday I saw Kosmic get sub-19. And here we are with Niftski the OG Mario GOAT with a sub-55. AGAIN 💀😂

[@JakeKoenig]

I remember finally breaking the 22-minute barrier on warpless as a kid and thinking I was one of the best players in the world. And for the 1990s, maybe I was. But 18:54 is not a time I ever imagined was possible. Absolutely insane run, congrats on the WR.

[@JacobJY333]

GG to you man it was shocking me when i saw the title and i was like wtf

[@ZTimeGamingYT]

Let's gooo! Niftski's back with another sub 55!

[@РифмовыйГеймер-ш8х]

Не перестаю удивляться новым рекордам. Чего уж тут улучшать?! Тем не менее это постоянно происходит. Лайк рекордсмену. I never cease to be amazed at new records. What is there to improve? However, this happens all the time. Like the record holder.

[@Niftski]

all bowser kills are perfect now, so the only improvements over this run are from doing more flagpole glitches

[@Engage_lol]

Niftski about to casually stroll in the new era of warpless

[@lukahmad5683]

7:50 that is so good, the fire synced with the music. You must be good at playing music xD

[@Nervous13568]

Сongratulations, Niftski!

[@fandenando77]

I like warpless speedruns way more then any%. I played a lot of SMB Deluxe on my GameBoy Color as a kid, so I've spent a lot of time exploring every level looking for the red coins and Yoshi eggs. Not all levels are very memorable, but I love that they're all shown.

[@raymondamantius]

Your consistency is nuts man, GG

[@carrotge]

Not gonna lie, when you got BBG, i felt like i was 'bout to faint. But, congrats on breaking another 55 barrier. A new era of warpless has started.

[@gnjoeyhowell]

How is it possible that this living legend only has this many subs???

[@8_bit_dragon_original]

Siendo alguien que jugó mucho este juego, me impresiona como lograste pasarte los niveles incluso sacrificando tiempo con los powerups! Gran SpeedRun! Felicidades! Edit: Epic Flagpole Cancel in The 8-2 God Damn...

[@lista_devideos_cursoscompl1338]

en realidad no sacrifica tiempo, lo que hace es una estrategia para que al vencer a los bowser de cada nivel no hay un tiempo de caida del puente que hacen perder tiempo, en cambio si aniquilas al bowser de cada -4 , no hay necesidad de que el puente se rompa, asi ahorra tiempo, mas que sacrificar es estrategia y parte del speedrun. te aseguro que si no agarra esos powerups imposible hacer el wr, perderia mucho en cada final de cada nivel

[@Currnation22]

Niftski is the SMB GOAT, and its also (imo) the most prestigious set of records in all of speedrunning.

[@Pbnj1379]

That was intense! Great run dude!

[@jimmykewley8386]

Damn congrats bro, absolutely insane run

[@MeesterTweester]

Niftski comes back to get a *64* frame WR, GG!

[@zlime8402]

was cool to watch this live

[@marioprogamer12345]

Niftski: bowser pls. Also Niftski but literally 5 sec later: YESSSSS!! 18:54!! WOAAAAH!! YESSSS!!! LETS GOOOOOOO!! That’s like me when I got a minesweeper pb, when I got my 8 sec intermediate game a few days ago I literally screamed like you haha

[@Solidpinkk]

Congratulations bro❤

[@Lektuerekurs]

Congratulations on the great run!

[@craigfergie565]

19:31 I knew you were gonna pop off, but not like this... Super GG

[@SmoothJK]

It's like watching a TAS

[@SmoothJK]

Btw Niftski, we all know you are amazing even with a controller...but you have inspired me to try with keyboard 😅

[@AndersonNeo12]

One can really tell, u know this game in and out. Not just because of the obvious perfect movement, but the way u shoot the enemys. U already start shooting and have some double and triple kills before the enemys even appear on the screen 😃 6:37 double fun

[@austinnelson5008]

4-4 blew my mind

[@archon42]

NEW ERA OF WARPLESS

[@JoeDan54]

I approve of getting the 54 as many times as possible

[@coreysmith7476]

Bro! Your heart rate was scaring me!!

GG congrats 🎉🎉❤❤❤

It's a new fucking Era yall!! Niftski is the top dog

Huh. Guess I was off by two days lol. For real though nice job! Can’t wait for a sub 18:50 lol.

GG Congrats! :D

Enhorabuena! ❤

[@Saddler46]

Congratulation For This Amazing World Record ! 😸 🐙 🦑 👻 🙈

[@MegaMonkeVr]

“So why do you want to make the game 50x harder?” “Because I’m bored” 😂😂😂

[@XxevilEyexX]

interesting, I didn't know this would count without the original nes controller

[@Niftski]

it does, keyboard offers no advantage over controller

[@MInibig_the_daredevil]

"18:54 coming very soon" Yep, that's very soon lol

[@Littlezombie790]

Well done!

[@fancyasian]

Amazing!

[@jtknott0528]

GG dude. Basically all we got left is fpgs now. Time for Mid 454?!

Bro didn't even crouch jump to get through the Bowser hammers. That's disrespectful.

[@TheSpectre2300]

1st 4.54 1st 4.54 Second Quest. 1st 18 54 Warpless You must not like them 55's Congrats once again!

[@arthurdent1045]

18:4x soon! :)

[@c4m3r0n]

ggs!

[@AkumaAPN]

The total time for this WR is interesting. It is only 60 frames faster than the old Warpless TAS from the end of 2004, which clocked in at 18;55.862. 60 frames is just shy of the frame rate (60.0988 fps), so it's 1 frame shy of being "a full second" faster than the old TAS. Next WR will be able to boast "a full second better" than the old TAS. Lol.

[@lukahmad5683]

2:36 that is so fast!!!

[@grandmastermario3695]

I love counting how many WRS I get each month atleast full game WRS anyway, don't care as much about ILS.

[@Sir.C]

16:07 how did he know about the time before the run was finished

[@takigan]

Time traveler. Only possible way.

[@thisisfyne]

SMB timing is practically a science now, so if he's super knowledgable about it, he may have guessed correctly at which frame the run would end. Especially as Niftski was playing super consistently.

[@Sir.C]

@@thisisfyne normally I would agree with you but he acted so certain of it. It was like it wasn’t even a guess and he was sure

[@thisisfyne]

@@Sir.C Confidence is key my dude! Nah I agree that it's kinda weird, but then again these things must happen once in a while..

[@joethebrospeedruns]

@@thisisfynegiven the route he was doing, there was really only a range of 15 or so frames he could’ve finished, assuming he didn’t lose the run to something. i just picked a frame at random and got lucky or im a time traveler, you’ll never know…
