"Did you see the sign out there? 'Cousins Only Day' today."

"For cousins only" tunnel of love had me rolling

7:25 The same happens in the trailer so this is technically a Lore-friendly skip. Climbing the scaffolding. Just with a lot less fire & clown zombies.

"The finale does not go by a timer but by how fast you kill the infected" I feel like I just watched the sausage get made.

What if you wanted to go to the safe room: But the Ai director said: Jockey

2:20 When the bpm of the song is the same as the bpm (bunnyhops per minute) of the run.

"Directly in the fucking way" was a nice digression from the detailed speedrun 💀

Ellis has the best lines in the tunnel of love. My favorite has to be "into the maintenance room of love"

I saw the strangest circumstance the other day on that finale map. Me and 3 other randoms online had just set up 2 on stage 2 on the platforms on stairs and as the concert was started it immediately ended the chopper came in tanks were spawned and we had to make a desperate rush for heli. Got some achievement aswell for not leaving stage during the whole fight, in all the years I played this game never seen that happen...

Really good coverage on how bhopping in L4D2 works!

So this is the type of speed run which can only be accomplished with the powers of RNGesus.

The whole jump input mouse wheel explication was good enough for someone who knows very little!

What I find even more impressive than the speed run gameplay is the research and knowledge of the inner workings of the games they speed run. Great job on the videos too.

I don't speed run and barely know anything about this particular map but I find speed runs fascinating because they're at the essence of trying to master something and be the best at it using every single thing to your advantage in an obsessive manner. And it shatters the notion that gaming is something unambitious losers do, which is a shaming tactic usually engaged in by parents or close family members. I think it's important to succeed in the real world as well, but this can be a big part of it. If you apply this type of passion and meticulous dedication in any area of life I think you stand a great shot at success. Of course, life is not a video game and there are many more variables but i think it still holds true.

I thought the parish is the most rng map this run is so lucky

Another absolute banger from Waifu and no one is surprised

just started getting recommended your vids and they're great

The whole jkno jeans and Faygo had me rolling.

GETTING LUCKY IS ONE OF MY FAVORITE GAMES ITS CRAZY SEEING THIS RUNNER DO IT AFTER THOUSANDS OF ATTEMPTS BAD RNG IS SO SCARY

Good voice and good explanation in words and visuals. Looking forward to more speedrun explanations

Wow what an in depth, fantastic explanation! You could teach a class on this. Great job.

I really appreciate these videos where you break things down, I'm not a new player by any means but still don't know tons about speedrunning

It blows my non gaming mind how people find all of these little tricks to save save milliseconds here and there.

Great video as always, keep up the good work

These games will forever be a favourite of mine. I don’t normally watch speedruns or really any gaming content but as soon as I saw L4D I had to click

"Varying from 2 maps to 5" *Proceeds to show swamp fever which only has 4*

Loving the "Lucky" series! Great job, Waifu!

The tick and the input part was really interesting, i grew up playing every valve game under the sun except the left 4 dead games, which I picked up in my 20s so it even felt different and know I know why. I’d been conditioned to expect things to be a certain way, but it’s different in left 4 dead 2 that is too cool.

10:59 That’s an oddly specific and strange feature

First time seeing left 4 dead gameplay since playing it when I was like 12 years old. The graphics seemed so real back then

I use to skip the coaster when playing with friends on Expert after throwing ourselves at it enough times. Did a common limit glitch on barns with them too. Good memories...

Excellent video and so clearly explained, as usual. Cheers!

that's why I felt scrolling to bhop was so hard compared to pressing space, thanks man, I thought I had a problem with my mouse

This was insane! Great coverage. The bunny hops remind me of the Super Mario RPG 100 Super Jump challenge. So the cinematic like footage is from spectating him running it seems?

Best game ever with friends. I have so many memories of playing this and MW2 back in the day.

The commentary had me laughing the whole way through!

I cant imagine having the attention span and mental fortitude to keep trying this to get a world record.

The fact you were humble as hell reminding me to subscribe, made me happy to subscribe :) Great video

Actually for the Boomer Bile, I've picked one up on the finale, in one of the toilets... it's EXTREMELY rare to find one beyond Map 1. And whenever I play the campaign Solo or Co-Op.... I hold on to that bile until the finale to distract the Commons from the copter. And I also pray I find an Adrenaline and Chainsaw early... to rush ahead for map 4 xD

I never knew the helicopter could spawn on the side you enter from. I don't know how many times i've played this map but it has only ever spawned on the opposite side.

"Blasted out hole of love" - someone was an icton fan from way back...

That tank is bustin some moves at 10:10

Excuse me, 9 MINUTES and 49 SECONDS? That is absolutely nuts.

Came here from Dante's speed run challenge video, anyway awesome video. I've never seen anyone do anything like this. Really cool information and video

Are you able to get the bots kicked in the finale on xbox 360? I'll need to try that out. The one bug I always did was when you could jump onto the saferoom door and go behind the fence and getting stuck.

nice vid i think personally you should have included everything in one vid or a sum it up kind of thing TLDR. At the roller coaster part you pretty much just refer to a whole separate video when it would have easily been fitting to showcase it here for the extra content and for those unaware especially if theyre just watching a video that randomly comes onto their feed.

great vid man!

I love your Left 4 Dead videos! Please make more of them in the future!😁😁

yo what is the title of the song that starts at the barns portion of the vid 7:44

What the hell? I didn't even know L4D2 had random map elements like that randomly spawning gate fence! That makes me like the game that much more haha

It’s good to come back to this

Speedrunners: *finishes game in just 10 minutes* Me: *takes 30 minutes to finish a chapter because i check and explore rooms*

Speedrunning this game seems a lot more technical than I thought, thats badass

I had a hard time even surviving. Speed running was never a thought lol

Why do you change the difficulty to easy when u start and back to expert when u close the safehouse door?

New Waifu RU-vid content...today is a good day!

Correction at 11:00 It kicks everyone that is still inside the area and not just the safe room Because the shutter door closes and Everything inside will despawn/kick because its in a spot no one can access For the multiplayer/versus, it is patched but in some cases it still kicks the player/infected

I wonder how a L4D speedrunner would be trying to speedrun Codename Cure

Anyone know what song is used during the the concert segment? much appreciated!

I just realized with Back4Blooods stupid ridiculous randomness, runs like these will never be possible.

so weird for me to see any l4d content of any type nowadays. l4d1 is my fav game of all times but i think im just more nostalgic for the time period it came from then actually missing the game itself anymore

The ICP jokes had me rolling

Name of the music throughout, would like to know the name, please?

Just discovered your content. Wish I found it 3 years ago.

Saw the mouse outline explaining the mouse wheel jump, I was like. I know that mouse? then picked mine up and placed it agasint the outline, yup the G502 Hero 😂😂

"Between 2 (last stand) and 5 (swamp fever)" Except Swamp Fever is an example of a 4 map campaign lol

@WaifuRuns i really wanna try speedrunning l4d2 but i need help i dont know how to setup the resources like campaign vote cycle and i cant find a tutorial for it

Cant wait to see senpai do back 4 blood speedruns

"I am breathing shit air into my lungs, it is being absorbed into my bloodstream. I am literally full of shit ." -Nick

Are there any shortcuts/skips discovered in the Last Stand Update?

Great video

How do you get on your earlier patches?

man some how i read the title as skate 2 and was so confused when i saw guns

You were lucky. I subscribed :)

I know L4D2 can be a mind game but this? Speedrunners are taking this way too seriously and that is why I madly respect them

2:15 what's the song in background?

I loved speedrunning this game. Asides from halo 1 and 2 the only game I've ever speed ran. I speed ran it on expert lol don't remember what my records are but after watching the Leroy Jenkins speed runs I had to try, got addicted to it.

I don’t even really like this game but I happily watched the whole video 😂

Do any kills during a run on an earlier patch of Left 4 Dead 2 count towards the player's Infected kill count?

The arch nemesis to speedruns: RNG

1:58 suddenly turns into a YTP

Very sophistication content

Big ups to waifu for not going on and on and on about his subscriptions percentage

“And if I’m lucky you’ll subscribe” very smooth transition. You earned a subscription lmao

does any of this work on versus?

2:05 see im sorry nick and coach, also ro, but I'm speed running

Imagine having this guy in your pvp lobby or in your pve Level! Would be wild and clutch

i am always hard for l4d2 speedruns when ever it's PB or WR.

1:03 "each campaign consists of multiple maps. usually somewhere from 2 to 5"" Continues to show Last Stand and Swamp Fever as examples. Swamp Fever has 4 maps though! :'D

How don't they ever get caught by special infected tho? i feel like I'm being stuck with jockeys/smokers 24/7

0:48 after learning about l4d2 boycott, hearing this feels amazing

Love the music

Can't find charlastik's run and his twitch is closed. What is going on?

I don't know man, that's some dream luck. release the files

Seems more likely than a dream speedrun

I remember doing Jesus Spots on the hardest difficulty

Didn’t they fix a lot of these shortcuts in the Last Stand? Like in the first level climbing over the bus to the bridge?

I don't know why, but you give me Huggbees vibes lol

Im new to this but where could I find footage of the run?
