Good video about a challenge I never even knew about.

@natetb2 Kingdom Hearts 1+2 Final Mix Critical Mode level 1 all content no death is definitely more challenging than this and anything the soul series could muster….However this is incredibly impressive nonetheless.

[@vocwubsy8374]

I dont know why, but the moment I heard your voice I broke into tears, Its been so long since I've watched a video of yours.

As someone who has never played a single minute of borderlands (don't worry im planning on playing eventually), I felt like I understood everything being said in this video, well done!

[@JustLeo420]

Thank you Joltz, wouldnt have known about this if it werent for you. I have some good BL2 memories

[@Dukhanstmichmal]

This just shows again how much content there is in Borderlands 2. Great game!

[@s1cktube239]

After running through this game with every character and maxing out each of them, I'm amazing I can still be surprised with this game

[@zealot1023]

I never played this game... But this challenge feels INSANE to do! Gratz

[@NaveionHumphrey]

hey I been watching for some time I would have my snacks & drink & watch playthroughs & you speed run the game & wanted to take the time out to say keep up the good work your amazing

[@lessur]

the amount of dedication that would go into 23 one life run attempts on krieg is actually insane

[@007kingifrit]

MAN, borderlands 2 is so much better than 3. there is so much more to it and its so much more challenging with way more interesting loot

[@inferno7248]

This is still one of the best video's by joltz, It was the one who introduced me to his channel and I have been adicted ever since lol

[@fredfred976]

I have no idea who you are and just saw the video and thought I’ll watch a few minutes. You might be the best commentator I’ve ever heard. The way you explain everything is amazing. I watched all 20 minutes and loved it. New sub ❤️

[@princesstoni8116]

He has amazing play throughs I'd watch them, they are pretty fun and just an enjoyable watch

[@Drudge_Lord]

He's so freaking calm about it too. There isn't any dream level reactions, just calm and collected logical affirmation. A blessing for my ears compared to "LETS FUCKING GOOOOO"

[@yohanguy8216]

And now he’s completed the 1 Life challenge for all characters!

[@dylanoconnor1458]

crazy just how much content borderlands has to offer and the insane skill ceiling

[@futuristicbus61]

Yeah I heard about this! Major props to him for being able to pull through

[@williambrito5923]

6:49 , just to complement, the Grog Nozzle is a Mission Item, that means it'll be random everytime you load up your character, and if you complete the mission, it'll dissapear, and there's no other way to get a new Grog Nozzle.

[@TYLERSWIFTSWORD]

Speaking of the legendary reaper I found a duplication glitch accidentally because I accidentally sold it and had to buy it back but when I bought it back it ended up being 2 legendary reaper class mods Wasn't able to replicate glitch since I have no idea how it happened

[@bewitchedblood]

I have been playing the borderlands games since I was like 9 I love the look and feel of these games

[@xOBIROCKZ]

This Video made me play Borderlands 2 again two months ago. I had a hell of a great time in the past weeks

[@Entotrte]

Bit upset that there no mention of Kai_TW in this video. He completed 1life with Krieg back when the level cap was 72 OP8, and he's done insane challenges on top of 1 life such as non-unique items 1 life Zer0 which he got to OP10, or non-unique items, no read-only farming Krieg which got to OP7.

[@mors_4769]

Yeah, I thought of him as soon as video started, shame Joltz didn't mention him at all :(

[@Joltzdude139]

Kai, Blackwayv, FistMaster, and others are definitely legends at completing one life.

[@verrvaincalm3864]

Kai is the goat. not to take anything away from Dark here

[@wardenxghost9113]

It amazes me to think of how many hours this guy practiced at this game to accomplish that. Talk about dedicated.

[@MrPOPO1911]

Still remember when admiral bahroo and ryoko finally completed their double one life run 6 years ago on their Krieg, maya combo and flipping out after months of watching them struggle glad to see people are still finding new ways to take on the challenge and make it more difficult the borderlands 2 community will always be one of the greatest in gaming

[@ethanwalsh2279]

I love these kinds of vids Joltz

If glitches were allowed, playing on the Nintendo switch would be the best option by far (just before the Lilith DLC was added, there was a ton of secret cheat codes that could be used. Unfortunately, they all got removed after the DLC was added, although they left a code that killed every enemy in a 20-meter radius. This also could give you a second wind.)

[@mariosmatzoros3553]

There were never "cheat codes" on borderlands...
