A look into the world of Hollow Knight Meme Speedruns

Ойындар

Today we go into the magical and sometimes bizarre world of Hollow Knight Meme Categories! I picked out some interesting categories to go through for today, and that is exactly what this video is!
I wanna also apologize for taking so long to upload again! I've been really busy with schoolwork and in general very very tired, so it's been hard to be productive. I wanna hopefully be able to return to semi-weekly uploads! Thanks for all the recent support to the channel though! Means a ton!
Speaking of, check out my Twitch! I stream daily doing different speedrun shenanigans :3

    oh look thats me (fun fact: the spore shroom aluba kill in queen's garden for al2ba% only works on current patch; on 1221, it requires either shade soul or dash slash, both of which are (unsurprisingly) slower than spore shroom)
