[@spybloom]

Shoujo and Barb were their teams' MVPs. GG all

[@Shuck1t]

Big time shouja made the lead and barb just said no at the very end. Those last few lives were huge.

[@MicroMidas]

37:00 Why does the wall come down and block the path EVERY time for Barb? Was it just a timing ting, or? Wtf? His body language says it all!

[@Ayoul]

@@MicroMidas Might be a bug or bad rng. It happened to Shoujo earlier too.

[@Buden276]

Barb was so clutch the entire run, I loved all of it. Shoutout to all the runners.

[@sebamoreno2986]

Daamn shoujo crushing it

[@dargkkast6469]

What a beast, next time they better just let it be a 1v5

[@ianpsergeant]

One of my favorite runs of the event. As a necrodancer fan, the final level was epic!

[@codegavran]

Did being into necrodancer make it make sense? xD Amazing race though I didn't mind being confused. Great showcase of the wild stuff the community creates and still that delightful horrible punishing skill test.

[@dampersand]

I love CarlSagan's reactions to the mode 7 level

[@tech-kyle]

Same! I had to rewind at every transition to watch his mind be blown every time!

[@Kahtisemo]

I spent so much time on levels 4 and 5 just watching reactions. The Dinos were so animated 😂

[@andrewface2355]

Progress count (checkpoints and goal finishes) for each player (progress made after the opposing team finishes is listed separately in parentheses): Shoujo: 16 (1) Juzcook: 8 Carl: 8 ThirdWall: 8 Barb: 14 (1) Shovda: 5

[@RoadPancho]

this was one of the best runs ive seen at GDQ ever. and ive been watching these for 5 years now. great job everyone involved

[@beanpwnz]

Barb is such a beast. Jumped into that boss fight and crushed it!

[@MrSmokinGanja]

That Mode 7 level was really cool to watch. Loved the end where it shrunk Mario and the small background details became platforms.

[@loley975]

This was amazing!!! Also shout out to the runner wearing that Yoshi hat, I now know what I'll get myself on my birthday 😍

[@igorndrapple1330]

She is Shoujo :)

[@Sady845]

This is Shoujo! She wears that hat very often on stream, almost all the time now! This is kind of her treadmark aha

[@soocool78]

thats Shoujo, I think she has a link or sells them or bought it from etsy? I dont quite remember

[@atakji_art]

this is Shoujo and I think she has the link of the etsy artist who made them on her twitch bio or as a command in her stream c:

[@TaylaChan]

Wow the levels were so cool and the racers amazing! Awesome!

[@auronwintermoon6064]

Love to see these blind races! Everyone seems to be having a lot of fun! Good luck to both teams!

[@Oombyy]

Thank you for uploading these! I fell asleep right before it started and I'm so glad I can still watch it now!

[@selfdestructivecat4922]

Wow apparently I’ve been sleeping on these Mario speedruns! This was awesome!

Ty so much.

[@omnomnom1410]

What an absolutely incredible race this was. GG to both teams, creators, and everyone involved with making this happen. This was such a wonderful showcase of what the kaizo community is capable of, both in level design and gameplay.

[@themanhands5599]

By far my favorite events from GDQ are the blind kaizo races. I get so emotionally invested in them.

[@redyoshi793]

Shoujo mvp

[@Taolan8472]

Shoujo *OP* ftfy

[@leandervr]

Always my favorite part of GDQ. Brilliant play and brilliant level design as always! That fours level with the whole screen turning, zooming, stretching etc blew my mind. Amazing work!

[@zeross39]

those level were beyond amazing.

[@FrankenSteinsGate]

Man Shojo was the undisputed MVP of these Mario relays this year, props to her.

[@Joe-ck3ju]

Always excited to see CarlSagan42 on stage at a GDQ

[@ThriceX]

I could imagine him saying I'm BAD when moving his head laughing

[@AnonLobster]

they basically made a VVVVVV level in super mario world that's just straight up amazing

[@hiveimperious]

Those all seemed like great levels. Glad to see Barb clutch it out!

[@BarbarousKing]

[@atakji_art]

this was sooo fun to watch! Just seing so much love from the community paired with some of my favorite runners

[@branalog]

Shoujo KILLING it.

[@pinto5012]

WOW! That was an amazing relay race with amazing levels! These SMW creators are truly a creative and talented group of people. The levels exceeded my expectations and beyond, they were incredible! The SMW community is so awesome! 😃

[@jabbawabs]

This was easily the best run of the marathon. These levels blew my mind, the runners all showcased incredible skill, and I was jumping out of my seat in excitement throughout.

[@samtoshner8002]

Incredible race! I really liked the format. Great effort from all the runners, and the level designs were awesome.

[@kongkunin]

Absolutely incredible play by all! Great job to the makers, players, testers, and event organizers!!!

[@goattrain]

I've never been a fan of watching people play kaizo runs they already know, but relay races like these have proven to me that watching folks LEARN a game like this is SUPER fun to me!

[@MisterSaward]

This was an awesome race! Amazing skill from the players, amazing commentary from the couch, and amazing levels from the creators!

[@marting5308]

This was one of the best speedruns ive ever seen in a GDQ!. It was fun all around, filled with incredible runners and the levels were unbelievable.

[@crazylegs1823]

couldn't stop smiling at this! So much fun, hope they do something like this again!

[@canadianPanda1]

Way to go Shoujo! She was so good. Everyone did such a great job.

[@Wild_giraffe]

Shoujo went god mode in this run. I swear she was omniscient at some points with how good her reads were. Awesome runs by both teams, absolutely love the SMW and SMM communities, so much skill and good vibes. Both this and the SMM2 race were definitely high points of this SGDQ

[@Twister-ul6tn]

this race was just fantastic. it was so great to see the players live again and i also loved seeing my two favorite streamers (barb and juz) live. great race with shoujo as MVP. incredible work from her.

[@theonlymegumegu]

Those were some sick levels, so creative! And what a line up of players to race through them, fave run from the year's event that I've watched, by far! Great job everyone!

[@panpolypuff]

So happy to see MarkAlarm absolutely *surging* to prominence in the SMW community. Wonderful commentary, and so happy to see where his passion has taken him!

[@hoppenflop]

This is such a beautiful, weird, hilarious collaboration. My favorite part of SGDQ.

[@josephgrimminck6855]

I am so proud these streamers crushing the levels so quickly! The donors I recognized so many of the names! Love this community! All Winners, what a great show and cause! GG to all!

[@drew413]

What a race!! Awesome

[@harryh.8451]

This was one of the best runs I've ever seen at a GDQ. Amazing levels, great platforming, tight race--this one's an all-timer.

[@ChrisLT]

I clicked on this expecting a regular ol' vanilla Mario World race. But man, I wasn't prepared for this. These levels were so incredibly creative.

[@nickbierman7008]

Amazing work by all of the racers, commentators, level creators, and everyone else involved!!!

[@argentryins1472]

As always an amazing race! And has all my favorite Kaizo players! Thank you all for all the years of joy you've given us!

[@tonysimon8060]

My god! What a race and shout outs to the real MVP Shoujo!! She was amazing in every single level!

[@zinoelgato]

Best run a GDQ thus far and Shoujo, who I never seen before, really impressed me, so now she has a new subscriber 😺

[@RobinLSL]

This was SO FUN. Thank you all so much!!!

[@CaseyDub]

@37:14 the missed high five is a thing of beauty hahaha This was awesome to watch! Great stuff by everyone involved!

[@johnsells9591]

I've been waiting so long for this!!!

[@Jack-ni4ft]

So much fun to watch. Incredible level designs and runners. MVP's are Barb and Shoujo.

[@Ms.Microcurie]

Congrats to team RNG Dolphins on the clutch win and to both teams for keeping the race tight and competitive!

[@knivesoutcatchdamouse2137]

HYPE!!! This would be so much fun to attend. Maybe another year

[@mitnehmerrippe]

What an excellent format, what excellent runs, what excellent level design!

[@neauxway]

Fantastic show! Well done to the teams, the modders, and the rest of the GDQ community!

[@munkytaint666]

that's the best SMW Kaizo race I've ever seen... shame I missed it live, but kudos all around to everyone involved!!

[@Taolan8472]

One goal fakeout can be funny. Two goal fakeouts is just *cruel*, but three is back to being funny again!

[@jay7bah]

Just incredible. So much excellence

[@Xino1217]

The relay-races are always one of my GDQ highlights. Great performances from both teams 👍

[@martinsomeone4572]

That 4th level (Cyberkinesis) was awesome. I really need to take the time to learn to play Kaizos.

[@mklip2001]

All amazing levels! My favorite levels: the shoe level that knocked sprites upward, and the maddy level with the gravity flips.

[@seawind930]

Great race! GDQ just doesn't feel the same without these races, I'm glad the Mario community is making a more pronounced comeback in these events.

[@nathanhoffmann1747]

I'd never heard of Shoujo before this SGDQ, but between this and the Mario Maker run I am seriously impressed!

[@v_aasu]

This was one of my favorite races ever at a GDQ! Very cool levels and everyone played so well

[@FT029]

what a close race! Beautifully constructed levels, graphics, asm, etc. !

[@rashrascal5304]

Super fun, definitely the highlight of SGDQ2022 for me!

[@icycubed3884]

Love the kaizo community, nothing but love for all the runners

[@DatingTV]

That level by maddy (allegedly) was definitely my favorite of the bunch. All around amazing race.

[@waynewynnx7976]

That 5th level looks absolutely incredible. Can't imagine how much efforts and codes needed just for that level.

[@Fa1rladyZ31]

38:20 It reminds me of nsmb final castle.

[@Hectorlph]

Entertaining from start to finish! I was clapping at home every time someone finished a level.

[@GarboSheezy]

Everyone was amazing but damn Shoujo and Barb with mad reads

[@Yewtewba]

Some of these levels left me grinning like an idiot. Great job, level makers. Great job runners too.

[@derpolcu]

These races are always the highlights of the event for me

[@Corncycle]

wow these levels looked like a ton of fun to play, what a treat to watch!

[@trickybeets1950]

I hope this event never goes away! Easily my fav! Great job to all the runners!

[@allmightyfoamy]

This is just fantastic, i'm so happy the event was help in person, it just gives a completely different vibe with the public. Perhaps the tech team could think of a VR option to attend this kind of events!

[@ChicagoRetroGamer]

Super fun to watch through this! Bravo to the runners.

[@kinggimped]

Wow, a one-sided scoreline for such a close race. This is high level Mario, the good stuff

[@TuncJH]

Just fantastic :D

[@TheDetlef11]

The creativity was off the charts.

[@Sakkeru96]

As a massive CotN fan, seeing that final level using the music AND skipped beat mechanic of King Conga made me laugh so hard. Amazing!

[@XehanortLP]

Wow! This run was one of my favorites this year!

[@skyedream75]

Only just started watching but wanted to say I absolutely love the Legends of the Hidden Temple inspiration for the team shirts and Mario’s appearance

[@wangledteb5671]

This was one of the coolest things I've EVER seen haha

[@GardFiring]

That's some amazing race, and unique level designs!

[@strctlykilz]

Juz coming in clutch with that one shot ending into the up pipe on the second level! And barb clutching it out on the next to last level was amazing.

[@strctlykilz]

And then barb clutched the end boss! So good. Love all the runners, all the creators, everything about this.

[@bradenjuengel9104]

The Legend of One-Shot Shoujo: Part One

[@dwhyyou359]

The fourth level was utter madness, my god the creativity!!!

[@BaronessZen]

LETS FUCKING GO I HAD FAITH IN BARB AND THE DOLPHINS THE WHOLE TIME ABSOLUTELY CLUTCH

[@matthew-epurnell1610]

12:25 = LEVEL 2 27:30 = LEVEL 3 38:29 = LEVEL 4 45:45 = LEVEL 5 58:55 = LEVEL 6 1:15:10 = FINAL LEVEL GGs to the DINOS & the DOLPHINS! :)

[@PantaroParatroopa]

Man, that fourth level really took Mode 7 for a real *spin* . I've never seen Mode 7 used on that kind of *scale* before. It's *shear* genius.

[@hogey989]

That was awesome. I love all the runners, but now I want to see a Barb v Shouju showdown. Also Carl v Juz troll level race.

[@big_c1999]

Easily one of the best GDQ events I've seen

[@Phaxey]

I loved the race. Such amazing levels. I also love the rules of the race, they keep the race competitive even if one team takes a lot of wins early. Though I would say that when one team gets a head-start on the last level, the other team shouldn't be allowed to look at their screen during the head-start. That could definitely have changed the outcome of the race.

[@JustTutupa]

One of the best events! Loved this race

[@Brianmcb84]

This might be the most fun run I have ever seen
