7:35 correction: both leezaard and I had independently made methods to find the 4,4 coordinates of the stronghold by memorizing every set of coordinates. I still use this method and it saves 1-2s over sprinkz strats in some villages and 5-10s in villages where sprinkz strats are slower (savannah and tundra).

[@evervirescent]

speedrunners gotta learn to do calculator speed math in their heads if they REALLY want to win

[@Draganism]

This was an amazing lucky run. The luck was not really emphasised by the creator of this content. Not only did he spawn in the perfect place but he spawned near a ruined portal in which he stuck it super lucky. He then, as observed by the creator, found a stronghold right under village. The runner then found a bastion and was increadibly lucky to get 8 rods from only 3 blazes, amazing. So that is, by my count, 5 to 6 extremely lucky events in one run. The runner also had the skill to take advantage of this luck. No easy thing on a hand held device. Great run, great video.

[@kpapi4355]

Arguably Too Lucky perhaps?

[@Draganism]

@@kpapi4355 I think everyone who knows even a bit about these things would be suspicious of this possibility in such a lucky run. That's why it surprised me that the creator of this content didn't draw more attention to all the lucky events. Of course, with the millions of games played there are going to be extraudinary events. The player does seem genuinely surpriised at his own success, not realizing that he had done an amazing run until he sees that it is still daylight of the same day. That kind of thing is hard, though not impossible, to fake. I guess, as with Dream's "lucky" run, it would take the scrutiny of the community to judge using statistical analysis to be sure. Good that the possiblity of cheating here is raised for the speed run community and to support the player as he is not a recognised speed runner. Thanks K Papi.

@@Draganism it was proven dream used a mod to increase drop counts, though he claimed he was unaware the mod was active.
