They Found The Best Throwing Sword in the GAME! - SotN Randomizer Tournament Match

[@EiUil]

I never thought I would get addicted to speedrun dueling

[@solarie]

Me too! 😮

[@AeneasZed]

That is a suprisingly good way to describe rando racing

[@xsouldriverx]

We need to start calling them duels instead of races.

[@tragicjon6193]

So basically a race? Cool It's awesome to see the love SotN gets

[@himbo_noa]

My mental health hasn't been the best lately, and these tournament races have been surprisingly helpful in giving me a fun and relaxing distraction. Love SotN (as a kid my sibling and I hired it so much from the video rental store that they sold it to us), and seeing so much love and skill for it is awesome. Commentary is fucking great as usual, thank you DB. ❤

[@xsouldriverx]

We've all been in a spot where you need that mental pick me up. I hope your mh gets better and stronger with it.

[@Sirax123]

Try rock climbing

[@Breakbeat.]

I'm right with you lately. Try working out, it really helps me.

[@himbo_noa]

you're all sweet, thankyou 💜 I've been up & down still, but getting there

[@jruler93]

When Swarm made it to Richter in race two, you said he almost did Richter Skip by accident, and that he would've been disqualified if he'd actually done Richter Skip. But on the hypothetical scenario where he did Richter Skip, would you allow it if he went "Oh shit, that was an illegal skip, lemme go back and fight Richter properly", since at that point, Richter Skip would just be time loss, or would he still have been disqualified for doing the skip in the first place?

[@sapolefrog1736]

The amount of skill in this tournament is crazy. It's hard to understand the routing decisions but I know it's better than my route would be.

[@philkerr4548]

12:48 "What is going on? This is a Circus!" 🤣

[@MattTheParanoidKat]

Hornet counterpicking the run back knowing full well there’s a key strat that saves time and skips complexity and doesn’t know how to do it is yeah GG . His movement was good but you are going to see him probably practice the ever loving fuck out of Dark Wolf now. Cause once he gets that down I don’t think you could stop Hornet. Also left side best side

[@teentails9677]

i'm so mad that i completely forgot about this Dr4gonBD video, and speaking of being mad, this part right here 13:03 just made me cry from laughing so hard and i couldn't stop until my face turned red

[@CZeke]

I love how you've been emphasizing trivial stuff in the title/thumbnail to avoid spoiling anything important. This one's even trollier than usual. They don't "find" the Rune Sword, they don't even get to keep it, and the eventual star of the show is the Heaven Sword, the _actual_ best throwing sword in the game!

[@MaxWright7]

It would be great if DB would explain all the items a bit more along the way.

[@wavefile1674]

Best throwing sword in the game? More like best sword to throw the game. Lmao jk ggs to the runners!

[@MasterMewtwo239]

"Oh NO, I accidentally installed an aim bot!" Best quote of the video, other than shitting oneself over meal tickets.

[@justsoki7367]

17:30 WHY DOES EVERYONE KEEP GOING INTO THAT FUCKING DOOR I DON'T UNDERSTAND ;( what the hell am i missing with this idea????

[@MrDark086]

I got you fam. They enter the door because it then spawns the elevator at the top instead of having to wait for it to come up to you. Saves a few seconds

[@desmondgovender3142]

After hitting the elevator switch,the elevator takes a long time to come up(also for the elevator door to open)...going into that room and exiting it makes the elevator appear on top(plus the elevator door to open) much faster than waiting for it normally.essentially skipping that whole animation hence a time save.

[@forgiveman]

I didn't know you can do accidental Richter Skip.

[@pehhii]

Getting back to back seeds where dark wolf is viable is just insane. Those seeds really test your lycan knowledge and abilities.

[@Breakbeat.]

I put SotN on my phone and my playthrough was the first time I've ever gotten it to drop. It was the first kill of the little guy. I was super surprised.

[@Edzward]

13:11 Hax!!! 😂😂😂

[@dagan8536]

Hornet's decision to pick Lycanthrope again after losing easily in game 2 just doesn't make any sense. Great tournament so far, I am really addicted to these races!

[@joaquinmaimone2211]

For a glitchless match there was to many bugs

[@BaneWilliams]

I see what you did there.

[@cylewhipple7442]

Sooooo many left side wins in this tourney, and 1st castle 5 vlads I think you are cursed/blessed DB. :D lol

[@NileLLS]

A long race! Heck yeah!

[@Valllefor]

Watching dbDaily narrating in 0.25x is awesome

[@Bagle86]

Phase 1: Left Side Phase 2: ??? Phase 3: Profit

[@BaneWilliams]

They both found Alucard Shield in race 1, but only 1 of them used it? Did it require an item only swarm got? I know that it's usually shield rod + Alucard.

[@Dynesgorandom]

Mablung sword at bell towers.

[@kiethuynhthe5487]

you dont need 2 rings to get to the clock final room?

[@ItsPyngasLive]

Best part of my def is when dbdaily releases a video ❤

[@xanrilteneb7673]

how come gravity boots don't count as flight? Is it just because they are too difficult to use for some flight checks?

[@MattTheParanoidKat]

Because you can not do multiple Gravity Jumps without access to a dive kick, Wolf and Leap Stone and a thrust swords give access to that allowing you to chain together multiple gravity jumps.

[@xanrilteneb7673]

Ohh I see. Thank you.@@MattTheParanoidKat

[@sapolefrog1736]

1:13:38 "I'm going to poop"

[@jeremyabbott4537]

"There's no style in going slow!" Erm streamer, have you ever heard of being fashionably late? 🤓

[@jruler93]

You can be fashionably late, but you're going to fashionably lose the race.

[@DFE-wu9lq]

​@@jruler93being fashionably lte in a speedrun is strting the run later than the opponent and still winning by a significial amount.

[@ThAlEdison]

Here's a dumb question Could you get big tossed in Warlock if you ate a toadstool?

[@ThAlEdison]

I mean to skip Death

[@SyRose901]

I think Wargs are physically incapable of dealing more than 40 damage? Idk

[@jruler93]

To do a Big Toss Death Skip? No. You need to take over half your health in damage to get Big Tossed, and even with 0 defense, Wargs only do 20 damage, and Warlock Alucard starts with the standard 70-80 HP.

[@zevory]

Db si this casting live or with delay I've seen so much wild guess that make sense but loses the matched if they fail And Also it's the correctt guess due they listen yo the casting and know what to do next

[@zinblast9648]

colluding for content

[@deathraven1380]

Turning to bat and mist, back to bat does work. Jus as long as you are moving up. It is not the fastest way to go up. But it does save MP. I done that before. No not in a speedrun. This game is the easiest Castlevania to beat. Once you know how all of Alucard skills work. It is just a too easy Castlevania game. Circle of the Moon may be a shorter game than SOTN. But that game sure plays faster, also the running ability, the game is far harder than SOTN. When you realize enemies have abilities that can get you killed so easily. The Golden Axe Knight of SOTN are a treat. However in Circle of The moon. There are a lot of Knights, green knights, blue knights, golden knights, the list goes on. You'll fin each og them have a bility that can screw you over, losing a lot of health. Since the beginning of the game, when they appear. Than there is lilith and lucifer. Two normal enemies with alot of health. That can give you game over so easy. Circle of the Moon is one of the faster Castlevania games. It is up there with speed and reaction to think fast before enemies attack. The way Super Metroid is. Yes I dare compare Circle of the moon speed with Super Metroid speed to run. Wish Konami made more castlevania with Circle of the Moon engine.

[@mfox3863]

What is "Dark Wolf"?

[@mfox3863]

NVM, wolf spike breaker.

[@riccardocantarella5408]

Much more "humanly" played race respect to the olympus of speedrunners, makes a viewer (like me) feel better about their skills tbh :D

[@rokjbrok]

the swarm didnt see the relic at the start since it was a familiar card and is floating..short a bit of frame to see clearly

[@OneOfTheSwarm]

I definitely did, watch it again

[@zanmatoshin877]

Verboten, is that German for forbidden?

[@mothertrucker-u9m]

VERBOTEN!

[@ganjx1687]

55:16 yeah fuck swarm
