So when I was building the end of the map, I tried specifically to make sub 20 possible in theory, but not something that would happen in a week. After months had passed and seeing how almost everyone was convinced it wouldn't be done, I started to wonder if my math was correct - I guess now we know. Watching this run feels so surreal that I still have a hard time believing that it happened, but I'm glad it did. I don't know if the story of this map is over, but if it is - it was a wild goddamn ride.

[@OldManCassius]

Amazing work on the map, I especially love that finish! It such an epic way to end the run :D

[@erwinc.9117]

To call elconn "one of the best ice players" is a great understatement, he's simply one of the best players, regardless of style and surface. He pushes every line to a fault.

[@coreyaustin3966]

This is what I say all the time, he is hands down one of the very best, it's just amazing watching him push the limits of TM and himself.

[@icantthinkofaname2722]

Euphemism? Euphemism is a milder word for something "bad" or offensive, like defecating is a euphemism for shitting. Although euphemisms can be formed by understatement, like telling a child a dead person is just "asleep", they aren't the same.

[@cime62]

@@icantthinkofaname2722 Ok Jason

[@leksluthor3]

@@icantthinkofaname2722 I don’t know if your example makes sense, since defecating is probably the most „scientific“ word for it and shitting is colloquial. And they are pretty much synonyms. Euphemisms are generally factually incorrect, they disguise the „bad“ thing you mean with another word that usually means something else.

[@RealitaetsverweigererDerAmpel]

I think you don't know what an euphemism is

[@Mammutmango]

elConn ist just in a league of his own. In every campaign I'm in awe by the resetskips etc that he does. and now this. sub 20 on ariadne. un-fuckin-believable

[@0u7break13]

Hardly in a league of his own. He is good yes but not that good.

[@Providenza]

@@0u7break13 Yeah I love elconn, but people really like to put others down when talking about him. So many people try to say he's way better than Mika on ice etc, or that he shits on Mime on dirt. When I think elconn I think crazy strats that most people would never come up with and that's what makes him so unreal, dudes also just amazing at every surface, but I'd not call him the best at any one surface. Let alone try compare him to Mika on ice.

[@randomguy8107]

Consistency is not his strong suit either

[@quakeev334]

@@randomguy8107 He's not the most consistent, but still pretty high up there - this WR speaks to that

[@JTGROT]

These videos are wonderful! I especially love the format of great driving and peaceful music interspersed with your commentary. Thank you for this Flink TM Hi Flink, just in case you didn’t mean for the title to be a pun I think you spelled the title wrong. Humanely means “with care and compassion” and is usually used when people talk about how they treat animals. Humanly (without the “e”) means “able to be done by a human”

[@DanAndreiVladut]

Yup.

[@markobermanec]

The witcher vibes tho... right in the feels man

[@NightStalker1337]

I mean elconn being insane and all, but the fact that dexter got 2nd after multiple mistakes is actually crazy. If Dexter did it again he could definitely beat elconn's rec.

[@sightorld]

well if dexter had the same pace as elconn on plastic, dirt and ice sections - sure, otherwise he would definitely be able to sub 20, but to beat wr - not without some actual grinding

[@FantaG00]

I love DexteR and all, but saying he came second despite his mistakes is being biased. he came second by a huge margin. Even without his mistakes he wouldn't have beaten Elconn's record. He was slower everywhere else except tech.

[@radioresepsjonfan]

Dexter was slower on dirt, ice and plastic, he was outclassed

[@NightStalker1337]

@@FantaG00 How is that being biased? That's literally observation. The only thing I am unsure of is how much time it would shave off if you got rid of the mistakes, regardless if he was slower or faster in some places, mistakes add up time. You simply can not elude the fact that it made it worse AND the fact still, that even with those mistakes he STILL CAME SECOND.

Elconn really puts 100% into every corner, he drives like he's made a mistake and needs to catch up but there's no one in front of him, that's why this map is so perfect for him

[@lexistar8517]

Obviously insane performance from Elconn, but I was pretty in awe of Dexter keeping pace so well despite the mistakes.

[@icantthinkofaname2722]

I was just thinking of commenting under your last Ariadne video that I wished you released more content like this, then I go to your channel and see this video released 3 hours ago lol. I think this format has a lot of potential, since just watching WR is slightly boring for me, but having multiple ghosts race each other and not knowing who will win makes it a lot more interesting. And your commentary also adds a lot.

[@KoalaJannik]

Amazing video, very entertaining!

now imagine a run which is Dexter's comeback + Weslie's ice overtake + Elconn's lead

As of raw pace, Dexter's gotta be one of the best players in the world for sure.. all the comebacks he made are crazy!! Gg to Elconn though, You trained a lot for this so its totally deserved, youre insane and I cant wait to see more crazy accomplishments from you man !! And Flink, amazing voice 😇❤️

[@UltraProchy]

ive been following tm since a bit before forever came out on and off, ive seen so many cool wrs, rpg tas runs, pf mapping masterpieces, amazing tournament matches then elconn gets this run

[@FantaG00]

Anyway to compare checkpoint times? to see who has the most fastest checkpoints. Also would like to estimate DexteR's time without mistakes, to see how far elConn would still have been

[@felixrobertson534]

Judging by the fact he says his sector times are "eyeballed" I would guess he's entering them by hand which would take a long time to do every checkpoint. I believe that on the stream I was watching on the day they were comparing sections, and elconn had the fastest time in all sections except the plastic, although this was looking at all the runs the players did, so it might be different in their records, and I might have misremembered.

[@joern122]

@@felixrobertson534 I would be interested in a "best possible time" with the fastest sections added together (if you remember correctly eLconn´s time is it) but i think Dexter´s tech section was faster for example...

@@lukashora5993 but Dexters Tech had 2 (?) mistakes that cost maybe a second or two combined. So putting all best sections together you could be 2 seconds faster. That elevates eLconns time even further....

[@milesbrown2261]

this track feels like it could be Trackmania 2020's final boss

[@cime62]

its crazy how, in this game, compared to previous tm, "speed" genres replaced most famous genre. Speedtech is much more showcased and played than before, now as much/more than tech, but same goes for dirt that is being driven much faster now (kinda "speed dirt"). Fullspeed is also still very present, but yeah I feel like "slower" types of gameplay sort of disappeared because the car is much more difficult to drive when slow, and accelerate less well than previous tm. Just look at RPG: its impossible to make RPG gameplay as good as before because of the new physics.. New car feels more like a real F1 now and less like a buggy

[@NneonNTJ]

True, slow styles don't feel as good as they used to. I myself have also transitioned over time into more faster styles

[@cime62]
