Probably the best match I’ve seen to date, so many twists and turns

I've never seen so much divergence and such a close race before. Totally different optional items, different dungeon order... and yet so close in the end. That execution in the end, wow.

I wasn't sure if I'd ever see a race that would top ChristosOwen vs ajneb174 Race 3 from the 2017 Fall Tournament. This race did. Absolutely incredible! I want to give special thanks to the commentators. If I'd commentated a video like this, I'd feel bad about all the mistakes I'd made or dumb things I'd said during such a historic moment. So I'd like Malle and Vitasia to know I enjoyed this race even more because of their commentary and I think they did a good job. :)

They talked about it in Andy's stream last night and even knowing how it went it was still just amazing to see.

What an incredible freaking finish! What a huge difference Silver Arrows and execution make.

Best race I've seen this tournament. Great skips, lots of divergence and a tight finish with different equipment loadouts. I watched this vid knowing the result beforehand but it was exciting.

Best series I've seen! Fantastic runners, fantastic runs!

This was the most exciting race I have seen on this channel! I was cheering the game play during the GT segment. Amazing!

This was a beautiful race, I can't wait to see the fourth one.

Oh my GOD I just finished it!!! This has been the most exciting race of the tournament this far!! Outstanding!!!!!!

HOLY SHIT!!!!! WHAT A MATCH!!!!!! WHAT A MATCH!!!!

My fitbit put me in fat burn mode during that Ganon fight. Heart rate was high! What a match

Id heard this was a tie but that ending... wow. Thats entertainment!!!

Wow. That was amazing. Such different routes, and an almost identical time in the end :O

Dammit Andy, you're paying for my pacemaker!! Your execution was outstanding!! Kudos to zero also. The 4th game is very anticipated!

No, you're right.He must've felt behind like crazy cause he was damn near perfect after that!

Holy hell, Andy's Aga 2 and Lanmo 2 fights, and then zero's triple arrow to finish Ganon off.... Wowzer.

Most awesome speed run I have ever seen

"OHHH BABY A TRIPLE" x2 that execution near the end... dear god.

Holy, absolutely friggen' close!

watch the finish in slow speed great stuff

OH MY GOD Greatest match ever? Certainly a contender

Vitasia repeatedly states that Andy is superior on execution, but I am not sure this is true. Zer0rush showed off lots of excellent execution in race 2.

Hearing these two zelda geeks lose their shit over how tight this race was? Almost as enjoyable as how tight this race was. Andy is a stone cold operator.

Gotta be the best game so far!

Best match I've ever seen.

Most epic game all tourney

This was an incredibly entertaining match. Both sides sequence broke the fuck out of the game. It was great.

Boots vs. Silver Arrows, who will win!?!

Incredible!

The hype at dark death mountain omg

oh my god I can't believe this match...

Best. Race. Ever.

Seeing Andy reel in Zer0rush's 9 second lead in Ganon's Tower, pass him, pull off a FLAWLESS Aganihm 2 fight, then jump right into Ganon without Silver Arrows and end up DEAD EVEN after the final blow. forcing a 4th round? This is a GameGasm. It should be played instead of the Super Bowl, period.

lmao, uncle standing over Ganon's body would be great. Add in the Triforce as a random item and it could work XD

Wow just an amazing finish

Wow an aga required sequence broken seed. How insane

I was on the edge of my seat

What. A. Race.

I'm wondering why the time is so far off like 1 second at the beginning. Didn't see that get resolved.

It's common that the runners do not start at the same time, or that their streams are not synchronized anyway. This gets solved by pausing the stream that's ahead by the difference. With a second gap, it's easy to miss the pause.

That boys and girls is one hell of a seed, dammit

Anyone know what the actual re-timing result was? Like how many frame difference? Because Daaaaaaamn.

Official result was Zero won by 1 second, meaning it was a tied game and they had a 4th race. The 4th race has been held already on twitch, but I don't know the result of it.

Wow. Speechless.

WHAAAAAAAT literal heart attack

SICK!!!!

Impressively close when they both just happen to skip our good ol' Time sink boss.. if that wasn't bad enough, they lost and gained the same amount of time!

If only zero hadn't done Lanmola or Moldorm he would have won. They didn't provide anything helpful. Otherwise his execution was really tight.

has anything orange and grabby been helpful? xD

THIS WAS SO FUCKING LIT

Wow!!!!!

zer0rush deserved the win 😥

@@skins4thewin Due to the nature of electronic systems, games played on different machines can be slightly faster or slower depending on things completely outside of the players' control. After years of studying speedruns and electronics, some really smart people decided that for this game, a difference of 3 seconds or less could have been caused by the system, not the player's skill, and so is deemed inconclusive; a tie. This is different than something like a foot race, where the competitors are both using the same system at the same time (i.e. the real world).

I understand that every commentator wants to be the "best". But I've never heard two commentators contest each others' commentary as these two. Or perhaps it was just one trying to be as contentious to the other as possible.

Skipping Aga 1 feels like a major glitch...just saying

@MultiWicht

I feel like they should be required to restore their sequence breaks. E.g. in this race to kill Aga 1 to confirm the sequence. Or get hookshot if they can hover every hookshot location.

I don't see how skipping Aganim is a glitch at all. Glitches are the game bugs that are exploited, not the result.

Since fake flippers are an approved minor glitch for movement, then skipping Aga1 using that method should be allowed. So I say all's fair. Good on them for know the bomb trick.
