Really looking forward to the Celeste run. I haven't played the game myself but I enjoyed watching speed runners try out the game when it first came out.

You can skip that second level ending fight whaaa

Also the speed of completing that first casino boss, wow.

How did they skip her? I had no idea you could, although I've never had problems beating her.
I'm not sure, and Google isn't much help... It looked like they threw a bomb from a specific spot to open the door before triggering the boss.

I beat her my first try, but failed my next three attempts and said fuck this:) To be fair, I suck at the game.

Seeing entire phases basically get skipped is crazy, such damage output thanks to that weapon switching trick.

Oh shit, isn't TheMexicanRunner the guy who played and finished the entire NES library, including that piano game?

This is insane. I was happy enough getting an A on every boss and TMR is skipping complete phases. Mad respect.

Edit as post: Yeah, TMR is the "complete every NES game" guy.

Also, now I wish I'd played Cuphead to understand exactly how difficult his run is. It looks like an easy game to me just watching him play :/

I was never of the opinion that I was any good at video games, but I now I feel *really* bad

It's a challenging game that can be hard as nails sometimes though it can be done. Everyone usually had a boss or two that stopped them for a bit (like this dragon for some though I actually found that fight fairly alright) but it is doable. This man is skilled at this and has clearly mastered and memorized everything about it.
