Can I Beat This UNCLEARED Super Expert 300 Second Speedrun? 

Now I'm gonna be paranoid whenever I see "speedrun" in the title but a 300 seconds timer...

@@AQDuck Lmaoo. Tbh, I just got SMM2 and although I haven't really touched it yet I think my first level is going to be an actually 300 second speedrun. I won't make it as difficult as that guy tho lol. I wouldn't be too paranoid if a level title said "300 second speed run" because like 7/10 it isn't.

@@abstractkvng3446 Good luck with the level! I think one of the biggest pieces of advice I could give is to make sure the player isn't going in blind. No matter how easy or hard the level is, if the player has to start over the entire level because they didn't know what to do, it's going to get annoying quickly. Arrows and spin indicators are your friend here, especially some P block markers to show where you have to jump on and when you should jump on something twice (by adding two of the markers).

@@staticchimera44 Thanks for the tips!! I will make sure to do that lol.

Its not everyday that you see someone with Junichirou as a pfp

The anxiety was real haha

@@luco4222 Lol, He deserves some attention and has some characteristics I find relatable. Otaku (obvious) willing to broaden more than his students' minds but their lives (In junichirou's case, for his selfish desires) and comes up with ways to make education for his students easier so they may do what they are passionate about, which is very relatable in South Africa as I am convinced the purpose of the schooling is to get the kids through it so they join the workforce, I hope I can make it easier for them.

@@chari9291 All you could do was shout at the screen "Please not like this!"

@@sebarsht12 i legit was afraid he wouldnt make it haha. As someone who played Sonic in the past, this music definitely triggered inside me

in my heart i knew this comment had already been commented

The stage is actually really good IF they add two check points. Even one check point will make this stage immensely better.

@@mic01851165 then it wouldn't really be a speed run

I wouldn't change a thing. The reason we watched is because of what it is

Well designed is a stretch, the traps, jank setups and lenght make it garbage, but yes, its well fitted together. If they had some setup whe you could practice individual sections, or choose which section to start with, this level would've been a lot better.

@@hw_yozoraVODS It has flaws, but calling it garbage is the actual stretch imo.

It uses the exact same musical logic as the Jaws theme, so that adds up.

the only logical conclusion is that Ryu is a zombie now

He loves us more than he hates dying.

Ryuvenge...

*Dies in the process

Thats because he already died inside from playing this level

Same dude. It's the reason I got into ryukahr in the first place. His cuts are nice and the videos are still of good length (almost too long). Nobody wants to see someone do the same level from start to finish over and over again.

Second purpose: scheduling, RU-vid lets you watch it on your own time and keeps it up forever rather than having to watch it live or within Twitch's archive period

If you watch the vod of the livestreams, you can hit L to skip ahead like, ten seconds. I do that when there's a lot of donors he's thanking or when he's redoing a super long level.

@@cadencenavigator958 dude, the stopping and thanking donors stuff is like THE reason I don’t use twitch anymore. Actually, I take that back- that’s the 2nd reason. The main reason is the annoying fucking pop ups every time somebody drops 10 cents and gets a glowing icon splashed on half the screen with a paragraph of text read by a robot every 15 seconds when I’m trying to watch a game. The whole donation pop ups thing just annoys the hell out of me, and then I’ve got to wait like ten minutes in between content watching someone just thank a bunch of people for donating. Depending on the stream or streamer, anywhere from 15-35% of any stream will just be them thanking users for donations or reading their comments out loud. If I wanted to hear people read comments and thank donors for their donations, I’d watch a fucking telethon lol

@@wokeupinapanic hella underrated comment, preach it mann

haha! nice!

nothing strange in ryu's videos, the timing is always perfect, if anything could go wrong, that thing go super wrong

Dude, where da timestamps?

It's truly incredible how often that happens on his videos

@@TS_Mind_Swept Sorry fam: 1:20 3:25 5:04

Lol what? The whole point is to take out pointless filler. Putting those back in would just endear and pamper upto that terrible level's creator even more. While providing more torture for Us. Are you that guy's friend?!

@netweed09 He just means the final 4 min 58 sec run should be an entire unedited video so we can see the full run to completion... Not this video being unedited bet there was hours of footage to finally beat this level.

@@jonnymcd1895 Yes, it's good you've highlighted it. But I think Ryu's done it correctly here; I'd have skipped that 'part' if included everytime

It can be pretty cool to see a technical speedrun played in its entirety the way the creator intended without all the deaths and trial and error. It's fairly appropriate to put in a victory reel at the end. It's also great for difficult music levels.

I don't know but it sounds like something some police officer might have said and the whole nation was interested in it. Uh that one goes deep.

And “I had weird bullet timing.

That means he has to stream later right? He said he would be...

Glad I'm not the only one who caught that haha

I was going to address this im glad i wasnt the only one...i seriously had to check what day was today...thanks ryu & upvote this comment so he can see it

Meanwhile I am watching this a day late and was like "Wait, I thought this video was from yesterday... did YT invent some way to put in day-sensitive outro clips?!"

I'm glad I'm in the future. I don't have such issues. I think it might even be a Friday. **checks time** Saturday. Close enough.

Ryu: *softly “don’t”

I wonder if they're referencing that most other 300s speed runs I've seen are just repetitive and this one has no repetition.

@@benanderson46 Right... Like it's the first to be non-repetitive

I'm pretty sure there was a 500 second speedrun in MM1. It was tight too

True, every section is unique

Agreed

U pretty

'misled'

At least you were able to download levels in smm1. Really bad decision to remove that feature in my opinion.

@Marco But it is a pretty good level, despite being excruciatingly hard. Not perfect, but... far from bad and one of the best long speedrun levels I've seen.

@Marco I played it. And apart from some random jank, it's a pretty good 300s speed run.

The first section is easy, and consistent enough to not be a pain, the Zelda boot jump is what I thought was the worst, but other than that, pretty decent speed run

@Marco 1. if you can't praise a level unless you've played it why can you speak against a level without playing it? 2. why are you bossing people around telling them when they can and can't have opinions? everyone has opinions and you're not going to stop someone from speaking their mind by being a prick in a comment section.

​@Marco like what authority do you think you have that makes you go around trying to enforce rules on others?

I feel it is because of the 'no checkpoint' + tight timer that makes this tough challenge so worthwhile to beat. But I do agree each person has their own preferences :)

Ah yes, lets add checkpoints to a SPEEDRUN, completely invalidating the challenge. There isn't anything that should be changed about this level. It's as hard as it is precisely and only because it's 300 seconds long.

@@Distrance my point was actually that it would be fun platforming level with CPs and not a speedrun anymore. Grinding this level over and over again from the beginning made even Ryu call it the worst speedrun ever made and he's played quite many :-)

@@Distrance There's a difference between a level being hard and one being frustrating, and the fact that you have to do the entire 5 minute run every time you die is just frustrating

@@Distrance okay, then it's no longer a speedrun. I would rather a level be no longer a speedrun but be a better level then a level have a lot of good content but also be painfully long with no checkpoints

Cringed isn't the word you were looking for.

@@p0lar83 No it isn't. Its the word that came to mind at the time. Not actually sure what word fits.

"Shit-cringed" you do one so hard the other occurs

@@izme1000 "Winced"?

@@apexkonchu2234 Yeah, winced fits. Thank you.

Was half expecting that weird gray face guy lmao

Yup, exactly. I think they should have been included to give casual players a fighting chance, and just for learning the map, as well (while practice doors would allow for the latter, it would have relegated it to unplayable status due to the sheer length and tight timer if you don't do everything pretty quickly, and those wanting to speedrun for the record will start over from the beginning anyways).

It's not a masterpiece at all, blind setups are pretty much the hallmark of jank, hot garbage levels. with 20% more effort and tuning it could have been a cool stage, as it stands, it's hot garbage.

@@FlourescentPotato Except it has no blind setups or jank, though that one shell jump with the link costume is really precise. Absolutely everything is visible before you get to it, or you can pause a moment to see it and understand it.

@Marco because nobody else here is a famous youtuber like Ryu who could make a video about this level and gain some views, subs and money out of it in the process (like Ryu himself pretty much said at the beginning of this video). If you are a normal person you could like this level (I agree saying it's a masterpiece is a bit too much tho), but still you likely won't bring yourself the pain and fatigue to play it for a lot of time just to complete it and get simple satisfaction without a concrete profit to be gained

@@KainYusanagi it has basically constant blind setups lmao, what are you talking about :)

Lol, no it's not. Quite the opposite: it's a torturous troll level and even for the Best player, those are designed to be unfair with set-ups and branched routes you cannot pre-predict. Ryu is far too nice, I dunno why he gives any of these credit. This is worse than any pick-a-pipe hot garbage. Don't take my word for it; would you like to try this level out for Us while remaining sane?

Yes ​@@netweed09

I loved watching this, also level looks well done.

whoa heck i got likes? what a good day 😌

Was looking for the comment that pointed out the total plays only went up by 9 from beginning of video to end!

@@Agrajag22 Well you dont know how many deaths he cuttet out tho

@@Planteas I didn’t count the deaths shown on the video. I looked at the total attempts (denominator) on the title screen at the beginning and end of the video. Those 9 tries may even include other players playing it so Ryu may have died even fewer than 9 times during this Ryuvenge!

@@Agrajag22 Ah ok alright didnt thought of that 😂

which is still about 30 minutes of playtime, man this level.

Yes well, I dunno about 'hilarious' lol, but quite a few levels have that like this. And knowing this scumbag of a troll 'creator' he probably has a crazy hidden one in the most random place

It was only a day

It's only been 2 days

@@Broken0Hearted that was the joke

@@Broken0Hearted 1 To be exact

@@SuperJohn1019 thats not a good joke

Yeah I was thinking the same, weird that the cheez-master didn't think of that?

I was thinking the same, but I'm pretty sure there's a red coin, and you need the red coins to get in the key door to get to the end of the level. At least I'm pretty sure because I was also confused why Ryu didn't just go into the pipe instead of the p door. That's the only reason I could think of.

@@crimsonfoxwing1970 aaaaaah that must be it!

Level shoulda had donuts to artificially draw out the time, so TAS perfect is exactly 300s :D With no time to spare.

Well, he never _had to_ in the 1st place! The level's maker is just a waste of time but I feel beating in is Ryu's way of 'spiting' him. There's nothing to be proud of regarding creating a heinous troll level like this, it's just as bad if not actually far worse for you sanity than any of those terrible pick-a-pipe trollvels doing the rounds

@@netweed09 I never said it was a good level. And he had to because he wanted to. That's all I meant.

@@netweed09 This wasn't a troll level though. Nothing was trolly. It was just a very long speedrun using a ton of tech from a ton of different mechanics. Just because a level is hard, doesn't make it a troll level. Watch CarlSagan's videos, then youll see what actual troll levels are.

Iam 99999% sure there is a timer below the visible line that will activate a key somehow :P

But strange that the timer still fits the 300s, so he needed to know that this level is possible

Normally the clear check time would indicate that there is a invisible block with key nearby the door

revenge isn't worth it if it costs you everything.

@@briandiehl9257 that sounds like it should be a quote

@Daniel De leon?

@Daniel De leon what does that have to do with anything?

I dunno man, the whole level seems so carefully planned out and designed and everything is possible I don't think there's a need for a dev exit. The person who made it probably already knows every section inside and out by the time they were done with it.

But if had Checkpoint it wouldn't be a speedrun if Nintendo at some point put a Checkpoint in the future that would save the time you took and continue from there, then I agree, but when you return from Checkpoint the time resets then it is impossible to have a speedrun like that

He's too nice. I'm surprised he didn't leave a dislike, why would anyone want to do this? It doesn't even make you feel like a Boss even if you manage to complete it as it's clearly a troll level and you cannot legislate or predict a proper troll level to call it 'fair'

I commented that yesterday but I guess its too late. Although maybe the fact that red would be active then breaks the level.

He would miss a red coin if he did.

Yup definitely cheese because he needs to turn off blue anyways later

@@pantlessgamer586 oh OK didn't notice that

@@jinokubo1934 thats good level design
