In late 2020, a sixth grader named Taiga appeared out of nowhere to set multiple WRs in MKDS. Today, he's one of the best players in the game's history. He's also one of the most interesting characters in speedrunning today.
I'd love to make some more videos like this about other speedrunning communities. Have a story for me? Leave a comment below, or DM me on Twitter: / gaming_observer
Prefer videos with subtitles? I've transcribed this entire video! Just hit the "CC" button on the video player.
A HUGE thank you to the players who agreed to talk with me to make this video. It wouldn't have been possible without them.
