I Hired Bodyguards to Protect me in Hardcore Minecraft 

This video took me like 100 hours to edit. So please like and subscribe if you enjoyed it!

the diamond part gave me so much anxiety

My mans - you survived!! Great work!

20:00 I absolutely love the fact that Sean had NO idea what they were talking about since he hadn't been to the chest where the sign is, but he heard "I'm a milky milky man! bringing milk is just one small part of my plan! mmmmmilk!" and immediately said 'okay I trust you'. That'd be my reaction too.

If Sean and Legundo didn't team with Kiply and Welcoming, idk if either teams would have survived.

When Legundo is more worried on Sean killing himself than the assassins🤣

That scene when Sean and Welcomtv were sneaking underground to placed the diamonds, my heart literally "Badump"-ing so hard

Kiply and WelcominTV saying "Oh that bridge, yeah we burnt that down." Then hearing forgelabs being silent was so funny. You can tell Sean's only important thing to do was to build that bridge. Legundo was keeping Sean alive not only from Assasins but from himself. Seems to me Legundo carried here XD

40:35 When sean said "Well, you know what i can do? I can outsmart them" That gave me literally chills. It's true tho Sean is not that good in Pvp but damn when he is scheming something it's always 100% either bad or good🤣 but still he's another level

"This is going to be the hardest thing I've ever done in minecraft, keep you alive." -Legundo, 2022 Also, probably not wrong.

i think sean winning the event was the biggest plot twist of the video. Massive props to you and legundo, this vid was awesome

"Mine was build a bridge-" "Is that the bridge we just burned down?" *Kiply and Welcomin look at eachother comically in sync*

I wish I could've seen Legundo's face when he was assigned Sean to guard.

I honestly think this might be Sean's best video yet. Not only was the idea itself solid, but the editing is GODLY. I don't know if the exaggerated darkness of the shader pack was specially chosen, but between it and the masterful choice of background music this video was a genuinely solid piece of horror media with great suspense. Sean's come a long way since he started out, and it's great to see what he's capable of these days and wonder how much he'll continue to grow.

That ending was like something STRAIGHT out of an action/suspense movie. Absolutely fantastic work my mans!

This was honestly by far one of the best videos you've made in a while. There was a lot of suspense, you also interacted with other (smaller) creators and fans, the idea was also very original and clearly well thought trough, making it both fun and have a sense of difficulty to it, for both the Assassins and especially the bodyguards and VIPs. Again a very good video I really enjoyed this one.

Let’s gooo! My man’s, I had a great time with it! Hope we do it again soon!

The milky men used their milky milk to extract a smooth and refreshing victory. Well played lads

Forge: "Going in the nether raises my stress so much" Also forge: *pays no attention and consistently mines the block he's standing on top of*

Looking back at the Zombie Apocalypse video (and the tension within the event), I love how the teams here are well thought off. Sean is with Legundo, Shadow is with Robert, Shadow and Sneve are on opposing teams, Ryan gets to interact more with Sneve and Kim, and it just makes sense pairing new people together in their first forge labs event.

It’s nice seeing Legundo and Sean work together instead of against each other 😅.

I loved the ending. It was smart to break the blocks while they talked. Didn't think they would come up with this plan. The collabs sean is doing and linking others video is a very sweet and great thing to do, I love that dude. Also I did have a better idea to that. I would have built a stasis chamber somewhere far off and keep someone (in this case Kiply) so that the moment they placed the diamond they didnt have to go through the trouble running off from the assassins. But nonetheless, this plan was also very well executed, a rare thing you see in sean's video. Loved it. Great job, sean and others :>

the whole cave diamond part was so stressful to watch I loved it lol. the shaders and ambient sounds plus the voice modulation thing added a lot to it too.

Honestly, Seans video plots are the most thrilling experience ever. I would take this over most modern action/drama thrillers any time.

Yo! This was one of the most intense minecraft challenges I've seen in a while! The idea was awesome, having the VIPs be at half health and forced to do tasks allowed the assassins to gear up, and they knew of the special points too - it was nonstop stressful! Really well set up, and greatly edited. I would love to see this be made into a series. It's a new, unique, and grandly crafted challenge! As for ideas for other challenges, I do like that they were very diverse and random, so they forced you to have skills in different aspects of the game. You could do some more building ones like a two story house, things like find the stronghold (But not necessarily go into the end), get certain advancements, things from Minecraft Lockout/Bingo such as get a honey block or light fireworks. Honestly, the trade with another player was a genious one, as it forced an encounter with the players. Overall, awesome video, and I would totally be down for more content like this! I've been watching you for a while, but this video, good sir, is your best yet. Keep it up!

the idea to blast music over your speaker is not only genius, but it's the most ruthless, meta tactic for Creator Vs Creator Content i've heard to of that's isn't downright hostile in nature.

Guess Legundo is definitely going to have kittens for trying his best to keep Sean alive.

my heart pounded so hard during that scene where sean and welcomintv sneaked under the chest. like holy id be having jelly extremities if i had to be the one sneaking like that

When Sean says 'I will talk to him' you can be sure something exciting is afoot. the man is a negotiator.

I've been watching this dude since his first 100 days and it justs put the smile on my face

Sean this was legit a 10/10. I was on the edge of my seat for the entire last 20 minutes.

Ryan shot himself in the foot by naming his sword "Shadow Killer." Well, the assassins shot themselves in the foot by grouping up Sneve was revealed when he said he was trying to bodyguard forgelabs. Kim was acting strange earlier on, but that CAN be passable as people being weird. Kiply and Forge Meeting up and confirming each other meant that Two VIP's and 2 Bodyguards where confirmed. When ryan killed shadowmech with a sword DESIGNED for killing shadow, that landed him deep in the "Definitely assassin" zone. Even if Kim didn't shoot himself in the foot, then he would be the only unknown one left, and since he's alone with no bodyguards, he's an assassin BUT, if ryan didn't name the sword shadowkiller, then deduction could be used the same way - If Shadowmech and his bro where assassins, that would leave one assassin left. Forge could ask "Who's the bodyguard and who's the assassin?" And if sneve is said as any one of them, they're all assassins - If they DID say something like Ryan is the VIP and kim was bodyguard, you know that's wrong because Ryan got both kills, and the kills were spaced apart. This doesn't paint the image of the assassins bum rushing the VIP, this paints the image of the bodyguard dying, and the VIP failing to run far enough.

Today I learned a horrible thing, Sean plays with Auto-jump on

So some changes I advise. First, Assassin's should be in pairs so noone is Solo and not immediately gives away their role like Kim did. This way the Assassin's can pretend to be BG and VIP. Add in a couple challenges where the VIP MUST trade with players specific items so it's not just dump random junk at each other. For my second suggestion, I advise giving each Assassin a SINGLE Drop Point Location so they can't just know them all, and also make the Player Track System a Once Every system. So once every 30 mins or something it gives the Assassin's the targets Info EVEN IF THEY CROUCH. And make sure this Sweep Locator is unique to each Assassin and not known to the VIPs so they can't plan to avoid it like in SAO. This also means that the Assassin's have incentives to work together, and yet you can make them opposed in Score to create division. Making alliances tenuous. This will make every moment more tense as the VIP doesn't know when they are being spied on. It also makes everybody wary of one another as no 2 people are "Safe" and yet you have to trade specific items.

Honestly, that last act was so perfect it almost feels scripted, but man... I've never been more captivated by a Minecraft video since like the old DanTDM days. Truly a mast piece. The idea was great, the execution and editing, it was lovely. Top class my man.

This is one of the greatest videos I’ve ever seen. Never in my life have I been this immersed in a Minecraft video. The suspense… the drama… It was all so incredible my heart was racing and I was sweating profusely. I loved every second of it this is cinema!

If you want to make it a little harder you can give everyone all the achievements before starting so no one will know who's doing what, like when someone actually gets diamonds or goes to the nether or something it won't show up in the achievements

This was a pretty cool/unique concept, keep it up Sean!

This was hella intense mah dude. Gosh. I literally had chills running up my spine during the ending. Wow. Just wow. Amazing. I applaud all of you. 👏👏👏

I think the next one should have five teams and five assassins in it to give a bigger win-lose margin. Also some ideas on what to make VIPs do. - Get a wither skull and start a cult with it(make an altar with signs around it) - Fish up a puffer fish - Summon a warden - make disk 5 - get flame enchant on wooden sword

This was amazing. A suggestion for you to consider. Maybe give the bodyguards a person to protect, secretly. So if person A is a VIP, they have to do tasks and survive the full time. Person B is a bodyguard, they have to protect Person A, but Person A doesn't know who is assigned to protect them. Person C knows who their target is, same as normal. If that seems especially risky, maybe give the VIPs the normal amount of hearts for that.

Ever since the origin video (100 days in a zombie apocalypse) of this channel, a year ago, I've been glued to his channel

love you guys that play at the end was awesome props to the Lugondo and Welcoming.

Imagine Kim as Sean's body guard :P

Suggestion idea for a video would be a hunting competition, where players have to collect a certain amount of animal drops, each worth it's own point value, and the team/ player with highest point value by the end wins

This "Minecraft's best players" series is epic. Keep it up! The merch is awesome too! :)

This has to be the most intense Minecraft video I've ever watched. Literally never has a Minecraft video made me sweat, or made my heart beat 10x faster, until I saw this video. This was done so damn well and I'd love to see similar things like this, even if it destroys me with anxiety.

I just realized now that Forge Labs managed to pull off a 200 IQ play.

Good fun getting to hunt you as always! 😅

Love these best players events. The strength is keeping the same people and adding a few new ones to get to know better. I’d love to see another zombie survival with the same map. Even at collectively about 15 hours it wasn’t long enough! It would be nice to see these two new players in there too.

This video was crazy good. I love how you and kiply met up at the start to trade and wished each other good luck then rejoined parties to try to survive. It really was like the two royals escaping a kingdom which has been usurped with their two most trusted guards when everyone else wants to kill them. Then the ending was so good, not to spoil it but, with them sailing off into the sunset. But man that cave scene and everything was really intense. well done.

i saw the thumbnail change like 3 times. It was first the chicken with the scope on him, then it was the terrorist, then the chicken again and now its both. And i like to think that Sean and his editor just didn't know which one to put, so they decided both. Anyways, great video Sean : )

Kinda like manhunts, but more developed. Manhunts 2.0, just straight up improvement imo.

Man, that dirty copyright music trick you came up with made me think of how fun of a challenge it would be if pretty much anything was on the table. You're pretty creative with shenanigans like that so learning into that somehow would be pretty cool!

"Hey Gold boy!" 🤣😂

I really hope you do more videos like these! The editing was amazing and the music really added to the suspense, I really could feel the pressure in the diamond part. Some parts in here my heart was beating really fast and was scared. I was more invested in this then many other TV shows out there. I really love your vids man keep it up!

I love the “Minecraft’s best players” videos. They are so much fun. Please do more

This man can survive anything, he's survived zombies, parasites, SCPs, hunters, morphing, stranded on an island, and more. And when I saw this man clutch that lava in the minecraft trailer video, I realized that if he wants to become the ultimate man. He must not only survive, but thrive in the nether for 100 days.

0:58 this is my favourite part. INTENSE FROG

That was super intense. Absolutely would love to see this concept again.

Please please please make this a series, this is so intense and fun to watch, I absolutely love it, some of the best content I’ve seen on yt

I always liked the idea of a manhunt turned speedrun race. Essentially a free for all, but the speedrunner changes, alliances change. It would start as one person speedrunning the game, but as time passes, the role switches, and if you die as the speed runner, you lose. If you die as the hunter, you keep going. I don't know if it'd be better as secret messages, or public messages, random or constant time. That's my suggestion. I'd love to see that

"Look how safe you are." *On his last water bubble* "I'm not safe." lmao

"You know what i can do, I can outsmart him." That goes hard

dude it's been like ten seconds since he uploaded it and people are saying "GOOD VIDEO" like bro

There’s something hilarious about how Sean always forgets about Sneve

Amazing production! The shaders and sound physics, combined with editing work created such an air of uneasiness. Especially during the underground scenes! And that finale with the rain?? Literally movie stuff right there

Loved the video @Forge Labs! Can't wait for the next video man! I'd like to see you do something like this but with some of the Following Mods..... • IndustrialCraft2 • RailCraft • Immersive Engineering • Immersive Railroading • Flans Mod • NavalBattleZone: High Caliber Plugin • Create Mod with the New Full Steam Update • Ragnamod VI • Apotheosis/Hellshelves Mod • Armor and Tools Mods for Minecraft 1.16.5 (Minimum) And the Following Twists..... • Each of the Players will be allowed to "Recruit" a Portion of Their Fans and Subscribers Equal to the Percentage that they Place in the Total Fan base of the Players in the Server (I.E. If there's 16 Players with an Average of about 250,000 Subscribers among them and one player (player A) might have about 20 Percent of the Total Fan base of the Server while another (player B) might have about 30 Percent, Player A would be able to Recruit about 800,000 of his/her Fans and Subscribers while player B would recruit about 1,200,000 of his/her Fans and Subscribers). • The Amount of Fans and Subscribers Recruited can be no less than 1 for every 1,000 Fans and Subscribers about every 30-31 Days (I.E. If Player A had 800,000 of his/her Fans and Subscribers to Recruit, that means that Every 30-31 Days Player A can recruit about 800 Fans and Subscribers While Player B with 1,200,000 Fans and Subscribers can recruit about 1,200 Fans and Subscribers). • The Players will need to Survive for at least 1 years (372 Days) in Minecraft and it will be Hard Mode Survival *NOT HARDCORE* Minecraft. This will be because of Player deaths to the Players listed as the Hunters/Assassins and their share of the Total Fan base of the Server will still be the Deaths counted for the Hunter/Assassins to gain Points, However, they will get *HALF* of their Recruits every *20 Days!* (I.E. Player C has the Average of 250,000 Fans and Subscribers which would normally mean that he/she would recruit about 250 of his/her Fans and Subscribers every 30-31 Days, However, Player C is an Assassin which means that he/she can recruit about 125 of his/her Fans and Subscribers every 20 Days instead). The Player base can get "Stronger" in the Following ways as well: • Finding a Village and Expanding it to have at least 4 of each Villager Profession and 1 of every Librarian Villager as well as 1 Farmer Villager for every 4 Villagers with other Jobs or Librarian. • Completing The Advancements in Minecraft including Killing the Ender Dragon up to 20 Times. • Building a Base to Protect Themselves from the Assassins or even Getting Assassinated themselves (I.E. Assassins will need to build a Base as well to protect them from being hunted down). • Every Player needs a Banner to let others know just who they are dealing with, as well as to mark out their Base and Any Villages they come across. Hope you like the Ideas man, I spent about 2 hours typing this up! Highly recommend you go ahead and try the Mods out for yourself to get a feel for them. If I were playing with you, My Tactics would be Extremely Unconventional compared to you Spawning Grue at the Enemy's Base. Thankfully for your sake, I don't play Minecraft but I do still have a Few Good ideas man. Hope you had a great time and I'll catch you in your next video man!

I could hear my heart pounding in the finale, it was crazy. Absolutely amazing video man

You should make a WW1 themed video like who can survive longest in the trenches

this was legit the scariest and most tense video. loved it! hope this would become a series

Ideas for four levels of difficulty (note: it's a bit long) 1. Easy peazy lemon squeezy: Tame 10 cats or dogs Kill 20 zombies Eat 5 pumpkin pies Get 20 redstone hold one fern in your off hand 2. Ok, I got this: Make 5 cakes get 1 music disk of any kind tame an axolotl kill 5 wither skeletons Trade with a wandering trader 3. Skittly dee skittly doo, a creative title just for you: Eat 5 enchanted golden apples Heal 3 zombie villagers Transform a pig into a zombie piglin Fly with an elytra Hold turtle eggs in your off hand 4. "Oh no bro" -Muscle Man: Kill a Warden Kill the wither Place a dragon egg on a beacon Resurrect the Ender Dragon ( Not sure if this still works in modern Minecraft but you can try it out ) Craft music disc 5 (optional) Name a sheep Jeb_ Name a cow Dinnerbone Find a naturally pink sheep Ride a donkey with a chest off into the distant sunset

i am sure Legundo thought the whole time: "how the hell did he survived all these 100 days"

Everything would have been different if Legundo had a place in the assassin’s creed. No one would have survived. But the good part is that he did a great job keeping my man Sean alive. Sean didn’t die once 🎉🎉🎉

such a fun vid and duo!! would love to see you and Shadow team up sometime

I'm amazed at how well this was balanced! It's not that I thought you'd mess it up, but I thought it would be nearly impossible to make the assassin team and the VIP team have an equal chance of winning. I thought for sure one team would be at a clear advantage the entire time, but you worked it out brilliantly! Excellent job, this is one of your best videos yet!

Sneve is my favorite. Need to see more of him at all times.

“He’s gonna be the player trade” -Kiply 2022

Alternate possibly to get the diamonds into the chest: flood tunnel with lava and use splash potion of fire resistance to go in. Would take a lot of lava and require them not to also have potions of fire res. Brewing invisibility potions would also work but they didn't have what they needed

Man that was super suspenseful great job yall

MY HEART WAS RACING, What a vid as always, very unique concept, absolute banger!

Probably his best and most exhilarating video to date, thoroughly enjoyed.

The tension was so good I felt like I was watching a movie, this is an amazing addition along side your 100 days. Chiefs kiss.

I really think this is your best video so far. This was just so incredibly cinematic and had so much suspense.

This is one of your best content for me! It's so nerve wracking!

On the first video I watched of you , your channel instantly became my favorite!

Would love to see more of this! It was lots of fun to watch!

This was cool. I'd love to see a rematch. The killers really should have mined out the floor and had that chest suspended in the air in plain sight.

Do a 100 days of into the dark... it's your choice I will watch anything you make just giving ideas to make your job easier

i look forward to your video's so much! i been having a bad day today and now seeing an new video might just change my day :))

Do more of that stuff PLEASE, that was so good, I loved the concept!

This video was such a banger, PERFECTION of quality content. It was so good, I was sweating and excited. Nice job, Sean.

This is honestly one of Sean's most exciting videos :D The constant fear of someone suddenly jumping on him combined with the tense music kept me on the edge the whole time!

Getting forge is both a blessing and a curse because he’s not the best but but a blessing because he knows where a lot of things are.

I can’t wait to see more like this. It was awesome. That ending have me at the end of my seat

i’ve never been on the edge of my seat like this for a minecraft video 😭 this was cinema, i can’t believe y’all made it

Wow first time in the minecraft chronicles Sean wins in a multi-player episode well played.

Would be interesting to frame this game mode with the addition that all vips (or even all players) live in the same vanilla village (though house mods are allowed) and can only sleep there/must return for the night there or lose a point. (Could have an extended day mod to increase day length to compensate).

Objectives: 1.dig up a treasure chest and collect a heart of the sea 2. Collect a wither skeleton head 3. Trade with a villager

This was one of the coolest Forge Labs video ever! It was very different and had a very cool and dramatic ending.
