Runner introduction starts at 0:20 Run starts at 1:16 Jhobz interviews Dr. Kathleen Schmeler at 57:01 Commentary is provided by Orsa Bradderfield is host

The host for this run has the perfect broadcaster voice.

I low-key super appreciate that even though the commentator uses the japanese/retconned boss names, he still says Duff McWhalen. Duff McWhalen is important, okay?

Very skilled commentary. Good information, articulation - lots of meaningful content without chatter.

Minha franquia favorita sendo jogada por um brasileiro na AGDQ. Vai Brasil! Vai AGDQ! o/

You may not have heard me Luiz, but I was clapping as soon as they said “Time” at the end. Great run.

With that voice, Bradderfield could read me the phone book and I'd be hooked.

Its been so long since they have done a x5 speedrun but bless them lol.

Um brasileiro, jogando mega man no games done quick, que dia! Nice run, Luiz e que venham outros brasileiros pro evento!

My favorite Mega Man X Game! Aka the one I played most as a kid.

Thanks very much for the excellent commentary!!!

awesome interview, thanks for the content.

Great to see this X game getting some love. Its been a long time.

Great Run! I always loved the presentation/art style of this game. Very "arcade".

Love the Bubble Crab music remake on Duff’s stage.

Man, I've been playing X5 REALLY wrongly

Finalmente o Brasil sendo representado num evento que realmente importa! hehe nice run

Man it does my heart a ton of good seeing speedrunners own the stupid cannon RNG

Host was amazing, great run by Luiz. I love me a good rng manip.! 👍

So the other thing about boss levels, at least in the fortress levels, is that they can up the contact damage they do AGAINST you. So one time, I'd got so high level with SS stuff, that Shadow Devil and Rangda Bangda would one-shot me. That was exciting.

Great game bout to play it myself here soon too

Damn, beautifully done. I remember I raged at this game a lot back then. So many instant death: Laser, spike And he just double jump to skip over all of that Beautiful.

Amazing run!

Feliz por ver um BR na GDQ, ainda mais um dos meus jogos favoritos na infância, mandou bem demais mano

Luiz joga bem demais!

its nice to hear from orsa again

Longtime no see this game in GDQ since 2013

I never noticed during the Shadow Devil fight that it’s a blurry Wily symbol in the background.

Nice run!

Nice Run!

VAI BRASIL! 🇧🇷

I was about to ask if Luiz Miguel was a fellow brazilian, that name sounded so familiar for obviously reasons hahahahahaha

You can actually keep Pegasus for last and use Dark Hold on him, it freezes him so you can finish him off quickly with Zero in the first fight. In the refight you can use it when his health drops below half to stop him from flying away.

12:58 I can hear the claps of every player that did watch this gameplay

I love this game, you can play it even if you are a casual.

I know I played through and beat this game once, but I remember almost nothing about it.

What am I fighting for

Oh man I miss so much the agdq on stage

Grande Luiz dale

Megaman X5 good game^^

Maxing the bosses health for the refights was such a pain in the ass. They're not hard but it makes them so time consuming

Wonder if he will get all orbs with the bike

The original Ps1 version, because on that version you can actually manipulate the Enigma and Shuttle RNG behavior on your favor regardless of the pieces you have obtained, the re-releases on Ps2/GCN and Mega Man X Legacy Collection 2 that factor is out of question and you have to rely on luck no matter what (Ps2 and GCN are the worst on that regard, the RNG is kinda rigged in favor of the bad outcome for the shuttle even with all pieces).

@@amso7169 Yup, as he said during the demo time, the RNG can still screw you even if you get all 4 Enigma and 4 Shuttle pieces, the Enigma RNG by default is pretty bad, but the Shuttle has better odds with all 4 pieces, but even so the RNG can still blow your efforts and give you the bad outcome, both tools can be manipulated to always work even if you have no pieces... at least on the Ps1 version in a consistent way, Ps2, GCN and the Legacy Collection 2 version has no way to manipulate the RNG in a consistent way (I don't know if is possible to create a perfect RNG manipulation in those versions by the player hand instead of a demo play... heck, the demo play method is out of question in Legacy Collection 2... because there's NO demo play at all, and in GCN and Ps2 the demo cannot be used either because when you load your save, the game has to pretty much "reload" itself because the game enters in the collection frontend to load your save data... however in this case I might be wrong, maybe more research is needed to validate that).

Why not let have X get the armor… part of the speedrun strategy

He wanted to manipulate the RNG behavior of the Enigma to be the rare positive result to open the final stages without risking of losing Zero by a bad RNG behavior during normal play (he explains during the demo time the reason of why he left it play), by the way, the RNG manipulation is only on the original Ps1 version (at least with the demo), the other versions on GCN, Ps2 and the Legacy Collection re-releases don't have a consistent way to manipulate it, I honestly still trying to figure out a consistent way to get a good RNG behavior in the Legacy Collection versions (and I play it casually more than trying to do speed runs).
