I'm the only one that complained about him farming lives and it turns out he's actually doing good. I know it might be kinda surprising but there have been several people these last couple days that haven't been very good at the games they're speed running.
There's also been a few dozen lovely posters who don't understand things like opting for slightly safer strategies for a marathon run, having to do a trick more than once, or just having bad luck in general + it's really grating

I wish this guy had knowledge about every game being run at AGDQ so he could commentate on all of them.

As I said I'd be thrilled to have him reading donations and announcing.

I had a beer once with Stephen Miller and now I like him.

I also tried to ban someone from a Discord for pointing out what an unrelenting shithead I am! I'm even dumb enough to think it worked!
This is the best guy. I wanna see a witwix Big John combo next year.

Finding so many cool streamers.

Has anyone YouTubed the Boshy run? I missed it and you guys are praising it a ton so I want to give a watch.

Also, god drat, this dude always has stuff to say about the game and it's enjoyable as all hell, reminds me of Monopoli's run of Halo 2 last year.

I am the morning sun, come to vanquish this horrible night!
I'm not digging this run so much.
I understand he's really good at the game, but it doesn't feel like a speed run. With the life getting at the start, and a lot more pauses than I've seen in some lost levels runs.

Don't get me wrong, I know it's a difficult game and he's good. And I really enjoy the enthusiasm he's putting into this.
I just feel like it could be faster. I like the runner more than I like the run.

Still this beats the hell out of a bunch of runs from this event though.

Number One I order you to take a number two.

The larval Adam Sandler sitting on the right with the pornstache is also a nice break from the typical sea of unkempt neck beards and mildew smears in the crowd shots.
