What Would A 'PERFECT' Minecraft Speedrun Look Like? 

Hey

very good day if karl uploads

YAY

Hey, Carl, My main

Id like to preface by saying i have a great deal of respect and admiration for you. That being said, I have a genuine question for you, Karl. Why is it that Dream's speedrun was ultimately denied? As a lifelong gamer myself, I have seen some ridiculous RNG shenanigans, including several literal 1-in-a-million chances happening in a row. That's both the beauty and horror of RNG; sometimes you have the worst possible outcomes, and sometimes you never even know it was supposed to be difficult.

1 in 7 trillion

@@jaxpro611 lmao

I see what you did there

Veritas my sir you have a good taste in youtube channels

omg its daddy veritas

Yea lol

Dream is jst thet guud 😺👁😺😎😏💀😺💀👁😅😅😘😺😛😺💢😺👁🔥➡

(he is just very lucky)

its the same chance of getting 20 rods in a row or getting 10 in a row and then not get one for 10 drops.

He just has a good gaming chair

@@stefanandrejevic2570 that's some nice English you wrote there

what does mc mean

ay its cows

Yeah, how happy you must be because you don't do something you don't want to do

Yeahhhhhh cows

No angry random person on the internet before you reply to this comment with how much you hate minecraft and you don't want Karl to do videos about it, remember people have different opinions and not everyone hates/likes what you hate/like

He said he's gonna stop making videos about mc cuz the comments are too toxic, so...

@@cezzan6586 Meh if he did wanna bet?

Whoever is reading this is an absolute legend have a great day

it nets him the most $$$, can't blame the man

@David Alexander nobody said that dream made people hate speedrun. Dream cheating just creates a layer of unnecessary suspicion on every Minecraft speed runner from here on out has to deal with. It’s not helped that it got so much attention and he has such a huge follower count which blew the situation up way more

@David Alexander dreams leads himself off to be illegitimate when he cheats tho lmao, that’s kinda the whole reason people are upset with him. Sure he’s had legitimate runs but once you cheat you cast this layer of suspicion on you that could’ve been prevented

@David Alexander Dream *was* a legitimate speed runner. The _instant_ he cheated now EVERY (good) run of his will be treated with skepticism and doubt. When even a good player resorts to cheating it negatively impacts the entire community as it creates a shadow over the community. i.e. _If one of "good guys" was cheating who else might be cheating that we are currently not aware of?_ The best interest of the community for long term survival is in everyone being as honest as possible. Once doubt begins to creep in it slowly fractures the community.

@David Alexander man when did I say that💀

@David Alexander idk why u took this so off topic for. The original comment said that Dream tarnished a lot of legitimate speedruns. I feel like that’s valid since cheating generates suspicion. Nowhere in this discussion was anyone talking about people who wanted bad things for dream mentioned till you brought it up.

Or were 9 y olds and just ran around looking for a horse to tame for 20 hours

There is actually a minecraft seed (-4530634556500121041) that spawns you in a village and literally right next to the village is a ruined portal and a pirate ship. A chest in the pirate ship has a flint and steel in it. The ruined portal is almost complete and only needs a few more obsidian blocks to complete it. Conveniently there is a blacksmith in the village with a chest that contains 16 obsidian . Also conveniently next to the ruined portal there is a chest which contains a fire charge. This chest also contains iron and flint which makes going into the pirate ship useless for a speedrun. Once inside the nether there is a nether fortress not too far away. But fortunately there is a massive warped forest biome right next to the nether fortress which allows for quick ender pearls if the player is lucky with the drops. But surprisingly this is all a waste of time as the nether portal already has all 12 eyes naturally filled in. This means the player can skip the collection of ender pearls and blaze rods and just go straight to the stronghold from their exit portal. I can't find the exact coordinates for the placement of the exit nether portal but it is really close to where the player enters the nether. If they make their exit portal in the right spot they will spawn inside the stronghold diagonally above the portal room. The chances of winning the lottery are 1 in 292.2 million and just the chances of the ender portal being naturally filled in alone are 1 in 1 trillion. Whoever found this seed for the first time had a better chance of winning the lottery five times in a row than finding this seed. And that's just counting the ender portal being filled in and not everything else.

it's not possible to randomly generate the current ssg wr seed

@@zolsticesr are you serious?! I guess that would make sense, tho

@@1767hfdh I think it's more of the former. He doesn't just make videos on what is popular, he makes videos on what he knows. So since he just had an emergency crash course, he ended up with a wide range of topics to talk about that he didn't have a good enough understanding of before.

@@1767hfdh His content is all about speedrun. So, no. This channel won't be turning into minecraft channel.

@@jjcoola998 karl jobst is blacklisted in dreams comment plus if you even say remotely about the speedrunning scandal you will get banned on dreams reddit.the first one is probably why hes posting minecraft videos

leibakki why are you people being so childish about this, is it so hard to understand that he just MIGHT have wanted to make a video because it interested him? Just because a game is popular doesn’t mean he is doing for money. And when would he even make this video if not for now, right after he first dove into the game during the dream situation? Would you have wanted him to wait until minecraft speedrunning was less popular? Just give it a chance jesus christ, Its like 2016 all over again where people were hella toxic towards minecraft, like i get people dont like dream, but dream =/= minecraft

@@1767hfdh If he was just doing Minecraft videos for views, they'd be uninspired, barely 10-minute videos with less research. But they aren't.

not a seed tho but pearl chance and blaze

@@renanmendes1299 ok dream stan

@@ej-jz5rc Don't have to be a Dream stan to think it's kinda bullshit that they disqualified a speedrun with exactly zero actual evidence of wrongdoing. All there is (that I've seen) is a dozen odd videos talking about how unlikely his runs are. Nothing that he did is impossible, just improbable. If they can't even show actual proof that the game was tampered with... well. Put up or shut up, frankly. Unlikely things happen every single fucking day. No amount of "this is so unlikely, here's how unlikely this is, isn't it just SOOO unlikely?!" is actually providing evidence of tampering. Prove he did something impossible during normal play or prove he altered the game in a way that breaks the rules. Otherwise fuck off. If someone bought three lotto tickets and won with all three of them, you'd be right to be skeptical. But you'd also have to prove that he cheated or falsified the winning numbers somehow, not just scream out into the void how it's not a probable outcome. Can't prove it? Tough shit. Admittedly his reactions on Twitter were pretty bad. He definitely acted like someone caught cheating.

@@MystearicalX they disqualified the runs because they were “too improbable to verify,” not because he definitely cheated. The issue isn’t that he got really lucky; it’s that he consistently got really lucky over a long stretch of time, which is why the probability found by the statisticians was so low.

@@MystearicalX He cheated and it's really obvious if you look at the debunking videos, he hasn't responded to them either. He's just ignoring it hoping it will blow over, and it will because of people who believe his every word like you.

The video is a roundabout way of implying that Dream cheated

Err, dream is still a good speedrunner, he still has/had a verified world record.

@@doctor99267 the dream stans are here

@@WhisperAH he is right, Dream is a good mc speedrunner, but he did cheat.

@@WhisperAH Saying Dream is a good speedrunner doesn't make someone a Dream stan... He *is* a good mc speedrunner, one of the best even. But yeah, he still cheated.

I set my render distance to 64 chunks and i can still not find who asked.

@@acumen8566 lmao

the seed used for ssg currently cant actually generate naturally. you have to imput the seed manually to generate it

cherny yes it can, what do you mean? the set seed world is a minecraft seed just like any other, and when you generate a random seed you can get ANY seed, including that one

@@pebble312 Exactly... Sadly not all people have dream luck to get it. Also, I'm 100% confident that speedrunners will find a better seed. Although that one they use is quite insane already

Yeah i cant beleive he was so lucky

@@GeorgeDCowley he got none of it

Basically

Replying cause I think this comment will get famous lol

Knew this comment was coming

Nah it would have to be even better then dream's run saying as he was still in 4th place at the end of the run

@David Alexander If you’re a top speedrunner that got caught cheating and also happen to be a big RU-vidr with a huge fanbase people are obviously going to shit on you for what you did. “Imagine hating someone because they cheated in a game. That’s stupid.” Dream was speedrunning, he likes to speedrun, in fact a lot of people do. And for him, a top runner with a cult following to cheat like that to get an illegitimate record and ruin the name of the community? These people pour their heart and soul out on speedrunning, it’s their hobby, for someone as big as Dream to cheat and try to cheaply steal a world record is just disappointing, not just for the MC Speedrun community but the entire Minecraft community as a whole. I’m not saying he should be swarmed with hate, but you should understand why some people were mad. In the end, people are still talking about it because it’s become a meme. It happens to every videogame cheater. Optic India’s Forsaken? Meme. Billy Mitchell and Todd Roger? Meme. Hell, even that guy from Karl’s Doom cheaters vid became a meme. Just ignore it, Dream himself ignores it.

Last time I was this early, axes sucked as weapons.

But one point one six is the correct way to say it

@@skeletonwar4445 I think sixteen is more correct because it is the sixteenth major version

@@anderdrache8504 I mean, I agree. It makes more sense to call it sixteen. But that's just not how decimal points work.

@@BlueCyann Huh, guess you learn something everyday.

That's the charm

That's just how Minecraft rsg is.

Thats why theres also a set seed category. That one has far less luck, with mob drops being pretty much the only thing thats really random.

there is a lot of luck, but there is most certainly skill, and not only in mechanics like platforming, speed bridging, quick crafting, one-cycling the ender dragon, dodging blazes and more, but the main thing that sets the best runners apart is the ability to improvise and quickly make good decisions on the fly. So I disagree that the barrier to entry is low, i think you can get a meh time without a tremendous amount of skill, but for a sub 20 (for perspective WR is 14:36), you HAVE to be skilled, you simply have to be good at the game, just luck won’t get you those kind of times

What if you always ran for the fortress and hoped for half the eyes to be filled?

Nah, you need eyes of ender to find the stronghold, and you need blaze rods to craft the eyes. To get the rods you need a blaze which are only found in the fortresses. So you’re goin to the Nether either way.

He explains the difference between set seeds and random seeds though.

@@paulsd9255 Well he does explain, just not in the title.

@@paulsd9255 Also the "perfect" random seed could be considered just a set seed, because perfection implies that all randomness can be removed.

I don't think that's exactly the case with minecraft RSG, it's more the adaptation, the ability to think fast, and the seed you get that make or break your run. You can have a TAS performing things in the most optimal way if you know what the most optimal way to beat the game is, wich is not the case with RSG

He's talking about random seed though, and TAS cannot ever be random seed.

depends if you're legit or not

@@Sillimant_ Not necessarily.

pro tip: coke and pizza to manipulate rng

The community just have to grind runs until that world is found

@@AstroRell exactly! And the day that world's found, it'll change the minecraft speedrun community forever!

Wouldn't smelting the iron take a while (10 secs per ingot) and so would getting to the stronghold?

@@bobboberson8297 would still be a world record im sure.

@@ggezpz_gitgud the video literally explains why it would be faster to spawn near a village

I would guess the odds of getting the set seed randomly is 1 in 18,446,744,073,709,551,616 (total number of seeds). Also I’m going to say it would count as random seed because it was random
