As the season ends, I want to thank Zed and Dot for putting the time and effort into having such great subtitles! As someone who needs them, it's so great to see hand-transcribed and colour coded subtitles instead of the auto generated ones. It makes a huge difference, and is one of the many reasons that Zed is a favourite hermit for me❤️

[@space_fishie]

came here looking for a comment that said this!! Zed and Dot, y'all are amazing. thank you for this, truly

[@digitalcircuit]

I don't even need the subtitles, but I turn them on because they are a joy to see (and occasionally I do miss words).

[@gotnate]

My favorite zedvancement was Perilous Percussion. It was so much fun to see all the creepers pop along with the music, and there was some real science put into getting that timing to sync up.

[@splitmac]

Same here. I still go back and watch zed and ethos clips of that performance regularly

[@eaaz09]

ikr i loved it

[@eaaz09]

@@splitmacit was just so magical

[@HermicraftAddict]

Same here.

[@thunderblaze9997]

That one was also my favorite!

[@yawnberg]

For the world download there needs to be a ghostly tinted glass beacon somewhere in the base to commemorate the netherite one that was so briefly Zed's.

[@JamieStagg]

Oooh tinted glass 🤯

[@seymour47]

Well done, Zed. This season has been a true Ach-APH-ment.

[@GSBlitzen]

Why does this sound like some kind of bone problem "Sir i am very sorry but you have an Achaphment in your ankle bone"

[@thenumberseven959]

Ach-Zed-ments!

[@jadondavid8272]

Bless you

[@edwardscott3262]

Zed should remember some of these next season when it comes to pranks. The death loop for one would be hilarious to play on an unsuspecting hermit.

[@user-oo3pq3hd5y]

How was this comment one day ago when I’m seeing the vid came out 12 hours ago

[@Leftysoccr28]

I think one of the greatest parts about this season and the Zedvancements is that you almost always managed to include a hermit in the action. Collabs on every video and seeing someone react to the craziness made this so fun to watch

[@DragonslayerProd]

Zed and Tango: *Celebrating dangling a sheep from a fence post* Xisuma: "Don't let me die ren!"

[@LisaMiza]

This has probably been _the most_ zedaphy season of hermitcraft. Let's be clear: it can't beat good old ZSMA. But still! What a season it has been! Absolute banger! Thank you for another great 2 years of zaniness 😊

[@HermicraftAddict]

That's the most Zed phases I've read in one place.

[@L_F_Axelia]

Giving Tango the A.S.S. hat was hilarious. They were all very enjoyable, but I think I laughed the hardest at the A.S.S delivery.

[@starinvasion6452]

When you asked Cleo if she wanted to help you with a Zedvancement, she excitedly went "....Yeah?!" A small thing but perhaps my favourite of your interactions this season

[@lordgiblets7585]

I feel like Zedaph is underrated. While it's cool that other players are making huge bases, mini games, and crazy farms, Zed spends most of his time finding new ways to just enjoy playing Minecraft.

[@natekarren659]

Out of everything Zed put himself up against this season, I am so impressed that the spying one was the only one left unfinished. That’s wild.

[@moonythesly]

Jevin comin' in clutch xD!!! This season was marvelous, Zed! Loved seeing you interacting with all the Hermits (their reactions to your shenanigans was always something special). Can not wait to see what you come up with for the big 1 0 but I know that it will be something no one has ever seen before. Much love man!

[@grutarg2938]

It was so nice to see Jevin in this episode, and so kind of him to share all his hard work, even for just a few minutes.

[@agentgauntlet4092]

Going out of your way to collab with as many other hermits as possible this season was incredible. I can't wait to see whatever nonsensical brilliance you get up to in Season X!

[@ojo5267]

Honestly, in terms of what you can do in vanila minecraft, this is peak performance. People are struggling to make this game still interesting but I notice that it's the same thing all the time, big efficient farms big empty building called base and it's still cool and fun to watch, but , what Zedaph has done this season it's nex level

[@eonaon6914]

Jeven coming in like a boss Father Christmas with the netherite is just the best that could have happened as a going away present.

[@RYFAMO]

Zedaph, I must applaud you! The server has grown steadily in the last years and most hermits are builders, farmers or redstoners. And sure they follow their theme or narrative, but your way of playing minecraft is so unique and refreshing, every episode this season has been a treat. Thank you for all the entertainment you brought me! Thank you very much!

[@fandomshark]

Jev coming over to loan you his beacon made me tear up a little, not going to lie. Congrats on all the Zedvancements and fun this season! Looking forward to what you all have in store for us next.

[@statelyelms]

This really was Zed's season! He's been so creative and actually seemed completely full of joy doing it, having a total blast. And as a bonus, you get all of the other hermits and their viewers invovled, as well as them seeing random Zedvancements in the game chat lile "Zedaph was blown up by Snow Golum", drawing them to you.. like myself!

[@samspenguins8975]

An amazing season, Zed! It’s been a blast working with you on the sciencing and I can’t wait to see what ridiculousness you come up with next season.

[@grutarg2938]

Thank you, Sam, for all the behind-the-scenes sciencing you did to support the Zedvancements.

[@ObiWanKenBroBi]

I think my favorite part of the Zedvancements was the interactions with the other hermits :)

[@bodugok]

Since the first time I saw "Is That Sheep Looking At Me" I knew you approached this game in a unique way. It has been so fun watching your antics every hermit season and I hope the next season will be just as good.

[@dolphinjersey]

Only discovered Hermitcraft near the start of this season and soon came across Zedaph. He quickly became a favourite, I love the joyful inventiveness and the community surrounding it. It's so nice to be able to be a part of it and I can't wait to see what's to come in season 10.

[@ctom4242]

I absolutely loved this season Zed. In particular I really loved how you went out of your way to often involve other Hermits in your Zedvancements. Hopefully whatever crazy ideas you come up with for next season can bring us even more amazing collaborations.

[@apexbrachydios5385]

I absolutely love how you put netherite trims on the leather armor

[@EvesterBee]

What a season it’s been! Going over the zedvancements made me realise how much you’ve achieved! Although it’s always sad to see a season end I’m very excited to see what comes next

[@saveshark8477]

This was such a great season, Zed! One of the best things about Hermitcraft are the interactions between the Hermits, and Zedvancements were such a great way of doing that. Etho said the 1812 overture was his favorite project in a while, BDubs was so excited about the slowest horse, Grian always enjoys a unique prank (giving Tango achievements), and everything else! I hope you can find a way to interact with and brighten the Hermits days next season, because you have good chemistry with all of them! It really made me come back and rewatch your videos this season :D Seriously good job this season!

[@skycherryyt]

it's still hitting that s9 is actually ending, this was an incredible journey!

[@nebularose0]

Im honestly sad its over, his zed-vancements were what got me started watching him. I love all the wacky ideas, punny names, and some of the cool mechanics needed to do it!

[@max_208]

Your POV was my favourite this season, your personality, the pure uniqueness of what you were trying to achieve and all the collaborations made it incredible

[@jasonolson7966]

Zedaph truly had the most unique and interesting seasom of hermitcraft. So cool to come up with all your own ideas that have never been done before in minecraft!

[@Fierycascade]

The Zedvancements were what got me to start watching your videos, and they have been an absolute joy. You are a man filled with a rare amount of whimsy. Never change that, Zed

[@amaryllis0]

Minibases, Cave of Contraptions, science experiments, Zedvancements... Your episodes are always so unique; I can't wait to see what you do next :D I've always thought it would a fun challenge to see how many vanilla advancements you can spam at once with only n seconds between getting the next one, could be an opportunity with the next season! It's interesting to me because of the routing you have to do, to decide which advancements to proc early so you have the tools to get more instead

[@thunderblaze9997]

I think that you’d love the KZbinr Fienberg’s All Advancement speedruns!

[@george5954]

Zed you killed it with this season. Such a fun series, could've watched you do Zedvancements for another 50 years tbh

[@brandonrappuhn5728]

Oh my goodness, Zed. Your collabs with Tango, Etho, Bdubs, and Grian were highlights of season 9 for me. More of this next season!

[@thesledgehammerblog]

Best one of these was Awarded For Knothing, just some quality shenanigans with Grian there. If you're looking for a challenge for next season, I'd like to see you attempt to get the How Did We Get Here advancement.

[@anastasiia_v]

I’ve been watching you for a long time and it’s so very clear that this has been your favorite season! It has been so much fun watching you have fun. Can’t wait to see what’s coming next!

[@BringOnTheRainxx3]

i feel like this season was weird for a lot of hermits, but you have been a netherite beacon of light find wild ways to have fun with the hermits and make cool stuff. wild that this season is over. cant wait to see what comes next!

[@businesshorse8498]

I gotta say, the Zedvancements were definitely my favourite part of this season and probably my favourite thing to come out of hermitcraft ever! I’m definitely going to miss it, but I can’t wait to see what you do next season!

[@coyoteeth]

from being introduced to you via the crazy potion making machine you showed mumbo, to all the wacky zedvancements this season, i have thoroughly enjoyed the wholesome mad scientist energy brought to hermitcraft

[@Cheesius]

What a wild ride! I'm so glad I was here to see all of these amazing things happen. And you educated me! I had no idea many of these things were even possible! Now for the next adventure - but how will you top this? I can't wait to find out in season 10!

[@Ligands23]

Perilous Percussion has got to be my favorite (and not just because Etho :P) - the execution of it was so incredibly satisfying! Best rendition of the 1812 Overture I've ever heard :D

[@SorcerorNobody]

And so another fantastic season of unique Zedaphiness comes to an end. It's been a fascinating journey, and I look forward to seeing what whimsical ideas you come up with for next season!

[@S_Crystal9217]

Noo!!! One short!! I'd say it is absolutely complete man. Just as a cheeky treat. Seriously though, congratulations on completing basically all Zedvancements! That is a feat! GG!!! Never thought I'd enjoy that conversation with Jevin and Zedaph. Fair trade I'd say. XD

[@beesbrownies]

Honestly, as someone who didn't get to see every one of these, knowing just how many Hermits (and Empires crew!) were able to help in this process warms my heart ❤ everything is better with friends!

[@Arthur40TwoDent]

It has been an amazing season, my favorite so far. I have absolutely loved the Zedvancements. Inspired me to try some Zedvancements myself. So cool to see them all listed here.

[@JackTheVulture]

You have become one of my favorite hermits! Every episode is something new, silly, and fun! I love how you collab with so many other people, and the creativity of your videos makes your channel so unique. Awesome season, Zed :D

[@violentvixen592]

This was the season that got me to sub, and what a lovely season. Zed, you have made it so wonderful; and dot_dot_dash, thank you for all the editing and the fantastic job on the subtitles. Absolutely, one of the reasons I stuck around was for the fantastic subtitles. With an audio processing disorder, they were life savers being color coordinated and everything.

[@BerryPipsqueak]

Thank you, sincerely, for an incredible season Zedaph! This was my first time watching your content, after I saw the Zedvancements in other hermits’ videos and had to come check it out. And my, what I was missing out on! Your videos are edited beautifully, and they always had some kind of goal that kept me engaged the whole time. The episodes also were so uniquely you, having a special touch to them that truly couldn’t be made by anyone else. You’re humor is wonderfully cheeky and the way you used the Zedvancements to engage with the other hermits was great, since oftentimes hermits become very isolated to a certain group that they interact with, but with your episodes I got to be exposed to so many different creators. It helped me really appreciate the fact that this is an SMP, with a bunch of friends messing around with each other, not just burrowing themselves away to work on massive projects. A lot of other hermits uploaded too frequently for me to stay on top of their videos, but with yours I was able to watch each episode as it came out, and was always excitedly waiting for the next one, because I knew it would be worth the wait. So thank you Zedaph, for a wonderful season of Hermitcraft, and I hope to be able to follow along with your journeys in the future!

[@tobyanderson7423]

That wad so sweet of Jevin to let you have his netherite beacon. I think my favorite Zedvancement was the deathbed. Tangos bafflement was hilarious!

[@TheFozyx]

Absolutely loved this season. So much fun and interactivity with other Hermits as well

[@jrogey]

Wonderful season. So many fun and interesting moments with your Zedvancements. Always bittersweet coming to the end of a season, but looking forward to whatever is next.

[@angelofthedead5589]

My favorite ZedVancement is either Perilous Percussion with Etho and the 1812 Overture ORRR Awarded for Knothing with Grain ft: Shulker Boxes. This season was easily the best Hermitcraft season, so many great things came from this season including the Iconic ZedVancements!!

[@murasakibalker4597]

That was such a great season, I loved your episodes ! And thanks to Dot_Dot_Dash and Shunnedtomcat for the subtitles, it's so handy having quality subtitles, I really appreciate it

[@smolbluegoblin]

This season was incredible ! congrats on succeeding your Zedvancements !

[@thecambunctious]

What an amazing season this has been! Each episode made me laugh and these advancements are legitimately incredible 🎉🎉

[@2008bunnydemibigenderflux]

I hope more hermits take Zed's style next season. I've seen a lot of comments on Hermitcraft videos saying that the mega bases are a minor part of the game, and we all prefer chaotic interactions and the members having fun. Zed is the perfect example of what most people (including me) want the hermits to do lol

[@colliewolf]

Truly my favorite season of yours this far. So happy to have joined your patreon and your server. You’re such a delight to be around and I can’t wait for the next one!!!

[@DarkWingman]

i hope you keep doing zedvancements, they are so much fun to watch!

[@cameron224_]

I have to admit, even though this was my 4th season of Hermit Craft as a viewer, you flew under my radar until this season. What a mistake. The Zedvancements this season were truly hilarious, clever, informative and downright fun. It was a great season Zed and all of us are happy you tackled it this way.

[@darkskull1-132]

Definitely your best work yet this season, sad to see it go but excited for season 10!

[@15drasedrase]

This was such a unique and fun season idea :) made the whole season extremely fun ❤️ thank you Zed!!!!

[@KenshinPy]

Honestly, one of the best parts of the zedvancements, what the collaboration with other hermits. its always fun to see zed bringing other hermits along for his shenanigans xD

[@eaaz09]

i love how many other hermits were featured and how the zedvancements were so social, it just makes them slightly more fun :) great season, can't wait for season 10

[@sepiasmith5065]

What an absolute blast of a season! I had so much fun watching! Can't wait to see what shenanigans you get up to in the future. I think my favorite was "I XP'd Myself" because it just felt like such neat obscure knowledge, and the aftermath of "what do I do with thousands of green dye?" was funny

[@stickyboy8533]

Honestly your season 9 was legendary, every episode was super exciting and full of shenanigans! It was all super fun

[@lucidmoses]

I can't imagine what you have up your sleeve for the new season. Your one of the few creators that doesn't have to worry about outdoing themselves. Your seasons are so diverse they kind of defy comparison. Nicely done. Also, Nicely done on the race way win.

[@ca.b.92]

I got a bit teary, when Santa iJev showed up! Such a great guy! The Zedvancement Idea was so great, I am curious, about the upcoming insanities in Season 10.

[@Moonscale_]

Such an amazing season! :D

[@umbrify]

What a wonderful season!! You’ve accomplished so much, and all in such fun and whimsical ways! It was really cool how much all the other hermits got involved as well, really made for some special memories

[@Cluemily]

This has been such a fun season. I'm honestly not sure I have a favourite Zedvancement, but I feel the I Spy one was a top Zedvancement. Every time someone else got involved to help was so funny sdkgh

[@SirBobtheCasual]

I award you my personal award of "most fun to watch" hermit of Season 9. Congrats!

[@contrapasta2454]

My favorite moment from the season was the arrow-catching stunt that resulted from Zed's research into arrow placement. Especially seeing Xisuma, who has seen almost everything, just going silent and saying "...that is actually in your hand." in disbelief.

[@bugmancx]

A fantastic season, Zed! Conzedulations!!

[@DrawnbyCC]

My favourite part of the zedvancements has to be how included as many hermits as possible. Such a great way of interacting with everyone.

[@Emancyphur]

It wasn't until the start of Hermitcraft Season 10 that I realized I never posted a comment on one of your videos! I only started consistently keeping up with your Hermitcraft episodes early on in Season 9 but I had gotten a taste of your style from the perspectives of several of the other Hermits in Seasons 7 / 8. The level of polish on your videos in conjunction with your quirky and fun personality, style, and approach to both Minecraft and content creation is seriously admirable. Your Hermitcraft episodes are honestly some of my favorite videos on the entire platform due to how cohesive and well-put-together every element in each video is; all the small details do not go unnoticed! The cherry on top is definitely the absolutely AMAZING subtitles / English Closed Captions on every single new upload. Although I do not have any major hearing issues, I have absolutely loved turning on the captions for videos whenever I get the chance since it improves my viewing experience. There's so much personality in the captions of your videos and being able to appreciate that (as someone who spends a lot of time writing captions for my own videos) makes me so unbelievably happy, especially when combined with everything else I've mentioned. Thank you so much for remaining true to your style, even if it may not receive as much attention or recognition as it deserves. You're the best!!

[@bobsthejunk88]

Was truly a great season, Zed. Loved how the Zedvancements created more collabs

[@kromeriffic978]

Thank you so much for such an amazing season, Zedaph! It was at the end of season 8 that I introduced my son to your videos, and so for this season we have loved watching the episodes together. (My favourite Zedvancement was Perilous Percussion; his favourite is Deathbed.) I hope you all have a lovely restful break :)

[@somethingelse4204]

I'd love it if in future seasons, at the beginning of each season you had to pick like 5 of the Zedvancements to accomplish during that season. They're just so fun, I don't want them to all be over!! Thanks for the lovely season Zed!

[@michaelhoerr2468]

'InterDIEmentional' was my favorite, both for the concept and the editing! The Deathbed is a VERY close second!

[@LocoNeedAChickenWing]

I love all the hermits but Zed has become my all-time favorite over the past couple seasons. He is always so funny and his attitude is contagious.

[@Ben87918]

Such a great season, Zed! Most underrated Hermit by far. Zed has such a unique way to play the game and it's awesome!

[@colindoyle4370]

I really like how Zed played this season. I think that the obligation of having to follow the formula (build a megabase, make a bunch of farms, etc.) can lead to a lot of burnout, and I think Zed's approach this season really showed that it is just as enjoyable for the viewers as well as the player to play in a more personally focused style. Including other hermits in the challenges was genius too. Great season Zed, congrats.

[@TomParkes1993]

I think you should award yourself with another Zedvancement. Get as many other hermits to help you in achieving zedvancements. Because honestly, while you doing crazy shenanigans all season is amazing, bringing the other hermits along with you made it even better.

[@longer647]

This has been one of my favourite unskippable hermitcraft storylines/ season plan I’ve ever watched. Brilliant idea and so well achieved.

[@LifeOfBaca]

Zed showed what a genius in Minecraft looks like.

[@fjolliff6308]

I'm going to miss these. This was the best season for watching Zed, and that's saying a lot!

[@swims11torches]

I actually had a solid memory of each of the zedvancements, what I didn't realize however, is just how collaborative the whole project was! We had so much fun with so many people, this whole thing was an achievement of its own, I'd say. Zedaph, you beautiful, beautiful man; thank you. I had a fucking blast.

[@squibkanotty99]

2 zedaph episodes in a week? We are spoiled !! This season was so incredibly zedaph!!!! Loved it

[@dbseamz]

I know I'm a bit late to this video, but my favorite one definitely has to be A.S.S. Delivery because that's how I found this amazing channel. I had only gotten curious enough to finally check out Hermitcraft at all from what people were saying about DO2, and when I saw Tango's POV of the sheep flight I knew I needed to come see what you had been up to as well. It's still my favorite episode of the season to come back and re-watch from _both_ POVs whenever I'm feeling down and want something to laugh about.

[@erichvereen1988]

The great thing about Zed is just when you think he can't create something more interesting than the previous season, he proves you completely wrong. Keep proving us wrong, Zedaph. I can't wait to see what you come up with next season.

[@cindyens2053]

I almost forgot got to put a comment on this episode! Zedaph, what can I say? Your Zedvancements were so much fun to watch! My favourite was probably the advancement with Etho when you made the Charged Creeper Orchestra. I can’t wait to see what you do in Season 10. Please do some ZIT collaborations! ❤❤

[@lasercraft32]

Zed can spice-up the possibilities of Minecraft content more than anyone!

[@wildsymposiums]

It's been so much fun following along with all the Zedvancements this season, Zed, thank you so much!

[@joostfloot5279]

This season was incredible, definitely my favourite so far! It was lovely seeing all the zedvancements again.

[@ochatea584]

Such an awesome season! I love the idea of the Zedvancents and the interactions with other hermits. Can't wait to see what the next season brings!

[@andydirk88]

Seeing this journey the past 2 years brought me so much joy and what a great way to wrap up the Zedvancement season!

[@jaewol359]

These Zedvancements were truly some of the silliest moments in Hermitcraft. Well done Zed! This was a great recap too. Here’s to season X!

[@MoonyFBM]

This has been the most creative, weird, amazing and incredibly fun journey. Holy crap, I've smiled and laughed every episode, it's been a blast. I think my favourite one has to be the sheep flying w/ tango; you two have such a chemistry I was laughing for days.

[@jdotleaf]

This season has been so fun! Onto season 10 and beyond!

[@spaghettieddy9692]

Love the pure joy you bring to the server Zed. You and the other hermits sound like you're having so much fun while tackling your zedchievements.
