Thanks for Watching :) Upon finishing off this video, Lep has finally beaten his time with a 31:52! These two runs are close to identical so fortunately the video is still 99% accurate. Huge congrats to Lep for this achievement!

I mean NMG it IS required, since downpatching midrun is not allowed in any HK Speedrun. Edit: hilariously it is now possible to do full clawless on one patch thanks to a discovery that you can Pogo on your own shriek. We'll find out if this ends up being deemed a major glitch.

Hollow Knight runner here- it's always awesome to see well-constructed breakdowns of my favourite cateogories! Although there are a few inaccuracies and missed details (those are always bound to happen!), it's really nice to see such well-researched scripted and constructed speedrunning videos! Nice job!

Love how precise this run is. Calculating everything down to the single geo really says a lot about the skill level required to even attempt any%

@blazethegame

Жыл бұрын

Any% at its base level isn’t all that complicated. It’s the optimizations and tricks that can be more difficult. But even a mid-level HK player can complete an any% run (myself included), although it isn’t fast. You collect geo with a simple route, so there’s no calculation going on. You just need 1800 for the lantern, and (I think) 400 for something else.

Path of pain, not a boss, but yesterday I reached the end and died so I am a bit… upset. Edit: The day after this comment I managed to complete it :) Right now I am stuck in the Sage pantheon. Believe it or not, the hardest boss for me is Uumuu.

“And promptly kills it in 1 second” Me who died to it twice: ☹️

I've only finished the game once and have very little knowledge about speedrunning, but your editing and narrating made it simple to understand and enjoyable to watch 10/10

It’s speedrunners that got me into the game in the first place. And here I am years later, learning their routes, and taking on the hardest challenges that the game has to offer.

Amazing video, hollow knights speedrun is very complicated, and you showed it off perfectly. Keep up the good work

Would it be possible for going out of your way to get the dashmaster when you get the mantis claw to speed up the times a bit? If there's significant dashing in the game it sounds like it could at the very least make up the time loss

03:38 when i played HK for my 1st time i used the moscito a bit lower and pogo jumped from it (i thought its needed)

why does this only have 164 views at this time, this feels like it should have at least 10K views

this is a good video, but i think you couldve zoomed in a bit more on some specific tricks, like how 1 VS is used to hit an enemy multiple times, or the skip used when getting the mantis claw. once again, still a very well made video

A bit sad how upslash and menu drop were not talked about in the beginning.

BRO PLEASE DO NOT STOP MAKING THESE VIDEOS HELL YEAH

14:22 just a small correction, this isn't a glitch, it's actually the Iframe you have after being hit. great video though!

does pausing the game count towards the time for the time-based achievements? :3

Love how almost everyone here is a hollow knight speedrunner/is familiar with runs and routs, yet the we watched this video anyways

Me had 9 hours in my first run without city of tears or even getting past mantis village parkour

The moment i broke a mouse on the white palace, was the moment i realized that this game is going to be extremely expensive for me

fk that beginning. Minus for that

All Major Glitches: Are you kidding me? That's insultingly low.

I just have to say that the thumbnail is probably the most engaging and beautiful thumbnail I’ve ever seen. It is mind numbingly simplistic and yet it stands out from 100 thumbnails. I don’t know exactly what you did to get this perfect thumbnail but props to you.👏👏👏

It took me more time to beat the hollow knight with every charm and the pure nail than it did for him to beat the whole game. That’s insane

I used Cheat Engine for the Watcheer Knights, should I feel bad about myself?

9:28 pretty sure he didn't take the elevators there lol

Hollow knight is one of favorite games of all time

i didn't even find watcher knights that hard, it took me like 3 or 4 attempts, but then again that might have been the most attempts it took me to beat a boss at that point

Leps a cool guy

Jesus- that’s impressive

Lep neither invented this route, nor is the only one who uses it search 'hollow knight any %" for hundreds of others who run the same route for a better and better time

as a person with more than 200hr in the game this is the best video of hollow night ever

YOU CAN POGO OFF SPIKES!? i got to remember this :3.

The speedrun "True Ending" is also really cool, a little less than 1:20 of true skill to watch.

I can't believe you talked about pogaxe without mentioning it was called pogaxe. The name is just so good.

I haven't played any hollow knight, but I've watched quite a bit about it. I did not know that wcs was used in the run. I always thought that was just a tas thing.

I was very excited to hear that the watcher knights were known as being the hardest boss in the game ,as i had just beaten them yesterday after roughly 3 hours of pain. That is untill i discovered the dream variant of the broken vessel, which i am now on hour 4 of fighting… when does the suffering end?
