[@levieuxhibou]

You deserve to go up!

[@msElboim]

THANK YOU!

[@TheValorious]

PIN THIS! PURE GOLD!

[@MalkinFan25]

You deserve my like. Actually, you deserve my like, and a second like from a new account I just created for the sole purpose of giving you a second like

[@patrickwilliamson9510]

You need to do this on *all* the GDQ Vods #neversleepagain :)

[@maxgrifka]

34:50 - Shortly after a death. "Since we've already seen this part can I read some donations"

[@dominix5548]

Absolutely savage

[@Atlessa]

I remember seeing that live and almost dying from laughing. Defilitely one of the highlights of this year's SGDQ

[@duo315]

the absolute madman

[@Karanagi]

Burn of the year.

[@flappy7373]

he really baked his potato

[@NeverduskX]

You know it's a fun run when runner, couch, and host are joking with one another.

[@WayTwo]

This is actually the most fun speedrun for me to watch, just because of the commentators

[@LarryLonson]

I got big meat

[@SushiElemental]

I've watched it a couple of times. So it's kind of a rehash for me. 🥔

[@kevinmshields]

"common taters"

[@ahouyearno]

the common tators

[@syaleedsxl6721]

So funny yes xD

[@Venty179]

This run was fucking awesome. Shout outs to Andy and his hilarious couch for the most entertaining live 3AM run I've ever watched. XD

[@start7336]

Probably the most entertaining spudrun I've ever seen. The back and forth between runner, couch, and announcer was the best. 'Since we've already seen this part, can I read some donations?' Brutal.

[@ferryfernandus1423]

Bonesaw577 on Jak and Daxter, you'll laugh your ass off

[@dhammarosi]

Ha! Spudrun!

[@megaluxray2692]

This run was the most worthy sacrifice of sleep I have ever made.

[@mrloqqe1610]

thats pretty sad i guess xD

[@stickymeat88]

Metroid impossible did me in the other night.

[@DavidGonzalez-nm6lt]

I read this at 12 am when I have to wake up early tomorrow, I will follow your lead then. Lol

[@FourthDerivative]

47:49 I just realized that the Japanese version calls the magic hammer the "MC Hammer". Definitely one of the weirder references I've ever seen.

[@TRKTKO]

One could say it's hammer time lol

[@NickShabazz]

I’ve gotta say, this was one of my favorite GDQ runs ever. Not only great glitches, but every person involved was having way too much damned fun. Wonderful, and thanks to everybody involved.

[@zacharywimer6708]

You all have an absolutely great.. Rest of your day.

[@GaminRiolu]

loved that gannon fight. so action packed you could feel the tension.

[@sjk210]

Fr such a close fight!

[@carlsticht4757]

i wanted to see a grand old face off, especially since Andy was sans sword, totally let down

[@jam_plays_games]

As someone who’s never seen A Link To The Past Speedrun before, this video gave me whiplash. I literally had no idea what was going on the whole video, and I loved it!

[@joe7272]

the game is so broken you can walk to the triforce within 3 minutes of starting the game on your first try

[@SteveBiedermann]

1:03:33"That's really impressive, how are you doing that" Andy... "I used my thumb" hahahaha. Idk why I laughed so hard at that.

[@icephysics9571]

This was worth staying up til 3 am. And worth rewatching.

[@PuppetMasterIX]

1:02:55 *Andy:* "Man, can you believe this is the end of Turtle Rock? It's amazing!" *Patty:* "... Not taking the bait."

[@Singeek15x]

PuppetMaster9 I didn't get the joke.

[@wildfluffyappeared]

Singeek15 x Watch Bonesaw's 100% Jak and Daxter run at... I think it was SGDQ 2016? Not sure

[@TenebrisTheDog]

what happened there? because i dont get the joke either

[@wildfluffyappeared]

TenebrisTheDog during the Jak and Daxter run, which Patty commentated, he and the runner (Bonesaw577) ended up talking like Owen Wilson as a joke (you'd have to watch the run, it's a lot funnier in context) and they kept saying stuff like "it's amazing! Wow! I can't believe it!" and so Andy was vaguely referencing that to try to bait Patty into making another Owen Wilson joke

[@angelomarcelino_]

Wow

[@emerylafleur]

at first i was thinking "man this seems like an alright run but why is everyone saying it's one of the best ones" i think i get it now, this was fantastic

[@crunchbite005]

He totally banged and mashed this run. It was loaded from the start. I was baked the whole time.

[@Transference90]

But the commentary really was the butter and gravy of the run.

[@tehbeernerd]

so was andy and the couch... there was a lot of downtime during the Tetris setup, after all

[@necrobonesgaming2424]

So you could say it tatered to your preferences?

[@xdarrenx]

Patty was just a bit rösti, that's all.

[@mitchellwilliam95]

you might have been baked, but i was smashed

[@nilete809]

Who else keeps coming back because of the great humor?

[@SushiElemental]

Yeah, spudruns are great!

[@Orpheolus]

After watching this run since was unable to watch at such a late hour, now I can see why this run is very a-PEEL-ing

[@Danocaster214]

This and the battle block theater run with the devs a few years back are the best ever. So many runners take themselves and speed-running too seriously. It's not fun to watch. This was an amazing run and also entertaining.

[@MrMovees87]

This is easily one of the best speedruns I've ever seen. The glitches were so cool to see, plus Andy and the couch put on a tremendous show!

[@CMF412]

Though I dont want everyone trying to mimic these guys as far as host and runner combos go, these guys were great and I would love to see more of them next year.

[@warmonksLoL]

patty is the best coucher in gdq tbh. this and bonesaw's run are permanent classics

[@pizzaman997]

This has to be the best couch in the history of gdq. I laughed way to hard and now my stomach hurt and so does my face because I'm smiling so much. Thanks guys you were great

[@Poldx]

these guys need to do more of these runs, awesome to watch, haven't laughed that much in a while

[@Tenfey]

A nice throwback to when GDQ runs were fun.

[@sirnopants2860]

If they would just hire nerdy comedians to sit on the couch, they could bring in so many more views and donations. This is such a wasted opportunity that could have been used to draw in new viewers.

[@sirnopants2860]

No they don't. All you have to do is sandwich a comedian with two other runners and have them play off the situations. It's ridiculous to suggest that you need a comedian speed runner in order to pop off jokes about the game. Hell, if anything, it'd be funnier if they had no idea what was going on. That would open questions they'd have that could stem to funnier jokes. The whole point is to make the show more entertaining, not informative.

[@ItWasSaucerShaped]

GDQ runs are still fun. I'm glad you don't think so, though; we deffo don't need folks like you around anymore. :)

[@paraisosintetico6173]

President Jyrgunkarrd See? People like you are the reason they aren't fun anymore.

[@justgiz]

1:21:24 "Andy, I loved your roll in Toy Story" "Buz Lighyear to star commAndy, come in commAndy"

[@xdarrenx]

Guess who co-starred as Mr. potato head

[@KebaRPG]

I find the announcer's potato puns to be half baked.

[@hasamidschwartz8725]

Eye know, right? I feel like he ought to root around a bit more for them.

[@TheDobbyDigital]

Don't make him feel too too bad, or he'll end up with a chip on his shoulder.

[@ubucomet]

All these puns fill me with tate.

[@tehbeernerd]

I considered Andy and the couch to be completely baked during that run

[@SvChamp]

Like your life.

[@aria3571]

Absolutely the funniest speedrun I've ever watched. If you are debating on watching it it's worth the sit-down.

[@CharoOmeg]

This is it, the legendary run with commentary that made me fall in love with GDQ and speedrunning. Love to everyone involved, thank you for the continued entertainment and charity.

[@FreneticZetetic]

This was WAY more entertaining than I expected. My favorite game of all time!

[@splashilein]

One of the best and funniest runs i have ever seen. Keep up that great work!

[@Ponyj0]

Best run this SGDQ.

[@Zenkirune]

Once again the Collective steals the show, good lord guys

[@paulkolovich7547]

the irony of killing Blind with a cane is probably the funniest thing I've heard all week

[@thomasvlekke5365]

This is my favourite run I've ever seen haha Amazing cough, runner with humor and a host that knows how to make people laugh!

[@ZephWraen]

oh my god, this run had me rolling in tears XD

[@TigeriPlaysGames]

kicking myself for not being able to watch this live, double-kicking for not watching the vod til now. this run was loads of fun!

[@DWAC]

This is my all time favorite game, and watching them completely break it was so cool

[@psiangel]

anyone else just been binge watching games done quick its hours and hours of content and its so entertaining

[@viralchallengeselfie7200]

Enjoy it while you can, I binge watched and ran out 😭

[@ch0colatemilk]

Great run, great couch, not taking themselves too seriously... love it.

[@YukoValis]

Best run I've seen so far in years. It was funny, impressive, and full of puns.

[@theamazingfroboy]

I come back and watch this about once every few months. One of my favorites of all time, right up there with Puwexil's Chrono Trigger.

[@stevenx2523]

I've watched at least a hundred GDQ vids but this is the best thing I've seen. Just ridiculous.

[@tedweird]

"Why are you on my couch" sounds familiar...

[@hyrulehero7834]

“I’d really prefer if you’d be quiet”

[@flappy7373]

i too came from a broken home.. just kiddin, my parents loved me! right? didn't they..?

[@AlmarAZL9S]

Man. I really enjoyed this run. These guys were so funny. I wonder if I can find another hilarious one like this?

[@element1192]

37:33 it’s not just this run... one of my favorite ways to kill blind is with the cane of byrna 😂

[@OverworkedITGuy]

In all the years of watching GDQ content, this was hands down the most entertaining couch+host combo I've ever seen

[@Fresh_Indeed]

This game had the best music ever! I still use the dark world theme as my ringtone! Watching this brought back great memories :)

[@andyanderson4918]

had to watch this again because of how fantastic it was!!

[@CrazyGirlEspeon]

This feels like a dream i had about AGDQ more than an actual speedrun

[@soggysoup2087]

Both incredible and heartbreaking how light of work my favorite game just got made.

[@fer0x666]

Best run of SGDQ 2017 and definately in my Top 3 for all GDQs combined!

[@PlayLikeAOesi]

by far the most entertaining speedrun this week :D

[@MatMadikPCA]

Fantastic!!! What a spectacle, especially with the audience.

[@mrtikachu4815]

this was amazing

[@jackal3770]

This was a ton of fun to watch! Thank you.

[@danielchristensen4780]

Funnest speed run I've ever seen. This is how speedruns should be.

[@kakashisei1]

This is my favorite gdq run ever

[@edinaldoc1]

This was a really impressive run!!! The game was broken in so many ways xD It's really cool because i've already been messing with ALTTP glitches for quite some time (actually, it was the game that introduced me to glitches), and yet through most of the run i was completely speechless seeing all these glitches being used so well and how much knowledge of the game this guy has! Also, that was some of the most hilarious commentary i've ever seen in a run! xD

[@spankyshanky]

this was one of my favorite GDQ group I've seen... I also like the Arkham City guy person

[@gearframe87]

What a wildly satisfying speed run. The commentary

[@cablair]

I watch this at least once a week. The banter between Andy and pat are to funny

[@patricericsson3493]

Best run this yeah totaly! Since I miss the old days this might be one for the rewatch folder..

[@Expry]

So much fun to watch!

[@Peter_1986]

+Expry I love watching SGDQ videos.

[@horseonajetpilot]

the absolute best run of this summer

[@prankstermanparkour562]

This is to Andy... You blew my MIND!

[@dreadheads2023]

this is the greatest speedrun to date

[@vudoodave]

Honestly not a fan of glitched runs, but the cast had me watching through the entire run.

[@jessesoronen363]

Soundtrack is just amazing i love it.

[@samtoshner8002]

All I know is since I started watching GDQ my own Zelda filenames have gotten much, so much better. "Lunk" and "My Dude" are among my faves

[@squaresoft01]

best run of SGDQ for sure

[@slmephigameplayvideos2145]

One of my favourite games of my childhood

[@Arya_Drottningu]

That was hilarious and entertaining! Congratulations Andy! :)

[@WereDictionary]

Best run, plain and simple.

[@vidagogo9829]

This video is like the game itself. You come back to it once in a while and still have a good time. Hilarious people here.

[@RainingStars2000]

I'm so impressed that Andy's able to play so well while laughing so hard. Also, that Pastebin explanation was fantastic.

[@dippn7047]

Andy has become one of my favorite runners all thanks to KZbin recommendations

[@danielleanderson6371]

I can't handle this level of banter.

[@dennistafeltennis1190]

When i played this game in 1993 it took me a few months to complete. But damn it was awesome finishing it. Back then there was no internet to check it out when you got stuck a little in game. Ice castle was interesting to play. I love this game.

[@fayremchannel2248]

I really enjoyed thanks Andy!!!

[@PhoenixPalmer88]

1:02:56 This really is the spiritual sequel to Bonesaw’s run. How does Pat do this to every run he couches.

[@MidnightWonko]

I been playing the randomizer so much that I'm just jaded on a lot of the exploits this guy does. But then he just pulls off a few exploits so expertly, and even I am impressed.

[@ShadowReubenKee]

I reaaaaally love that Patty guy. 19:16 > 19:22 is genius. "Should I clap just cause? Yup."

[@TheUglyAnswers]

Fully loaded fun, from starch to finish.

[@Goatllama]

Wow. Had no idea the silver arrows are so freaking powerful, though I'm not surprised. Excellent and enjoyable run.

[@1313eable]

They do 8 times the damage of a normal arrow, which already does the same damage as a Master Sword swing. So, basically, a Silver Arrow does the same damage as the spin of the Golden Sword. However, many enemies including bosses are coded to take double damage from arrows, which is why most of them die with a single hit.

[@lukeketelaar6321]

I mean I don't want to make any premature calls, but... best couch of all time?

[@michaelhodnett431]

You won't get an argument from me

[@SolaR_SigmA_]

Great run and couch/commentary thanks

[@Joe-ck3ju]

I love the ALTTP community, One of the best communities in speed running.

[@TheGrootmeesterjan]

Great speed run and very funny commentary.

[@magnuslagergren9328]

Best run of SGDQ!!!

[@raiyzer275]

I clicked on this video once I saw the name, and immediately hoped that Patty would be in it. I am satisfied. Patty is truly the best commontator

[@yumemirai4419]

Broken game, good commentary... This was a blast.

[@Andronious]

The best speedrun

[@eskurian8565]

I'd put more thumbs up if I could. This was the funniest GDQ run I've ever seen. Thanks everyone! :D

[@essettoourcause]

You know auto-generated text is learning well when it can get pneumonoultramicroscopicsilicovolcanoconiosis right

[@GuffMcGufferson]

1:14:55 and 1:21:20 were my favorite moments/donations *Andy, I loved your role in Toy Story*

[@IslesGirl3]

whoever that donator was deserved a medal

[@bsharpmajorscale]

The witty banter was top-notch.

[@InfraROTH]

Awesome run and super fun!

[@RobinLSL]

Wow, those glitches are amazing.

[@Ephraim225]

36:26 is just perfect hahahaha
