Throughout the video you showed this leaderboard showcasing the individual runners' cumulative best times, is there a link to see it somewhere?
I.e. the leaderboard shown at 20:27 for instance

I've added it to the description as well :)
@@PracticalTAS nice. I was wondering if any individual runners managed to get sub 3 on their own runs, cool to know 2 people have already managed it
Really happy for those people who subscribed and got to find the next video faster
Thanks for the comprehensive coverage! This community is awesome and I love being a part of it
Thank you again for all your help mega!
Hey! Its you!!
You are a genius
I heard abput you in a video
I got goosebumps when he got to your part. So sick man congrats!!
Mario 64 Master coming back after 15 years to reclaim the record was like watching an old muscle car beat a Ferrari. Absolutely awesome.
Like the avatar returning when the world needed him most.
That was my favorite part
Its like Matt Turk suddenly popping up and setting like five new Punch-Out! records
lmao imagine if you could phantom hit targets. the optimal run would need to be literally pixel perfect
Yeah I am very thankful that it is not actually possible to phantom hit targets.
@@PracticalTAS thank you for clarifying, a shlong can only get so hard
There is something rather beautiful about speed runners coming out of retirement to teach the kids a thing or two.
“Hey guys, just coming back from a 15 year break. I got a new world record by the way.”
great video!! waiting for the ice climbers vid :)
Me: "Hmm, I wonder what other have been broken since? maybe the total is down to 2:59.7 or 8"
Practical TAS: "We went down to sub 2:57!"
*jaw drops*
The bombshell at the end. My jaw dropped outright. Every soul who's ever been within striking distance or WR in ANY stage is a monster, and the ones who've torn away huge chunks on their own are just too good to be believed. This is art.
I was around during the GameFAQs days! I joined the forums when the HRC topic was on number 10. I remember Tinister and OMFG I REMEMBER M64M. This was an enormous walk down memory lane. Thank you ptas!
You should join the smash stadium discord! I'm sure the guys would love to chat again discord.gg/TQvkHHS
i was so invested in those 0.87 seconds that the ending blew me out of my chair
"Some youtuber named Practical Tas" -Practical Tas
I love your BTT content, this was another really well organized and written video. So much respect for all of the people pushing Melee's single-player content to its limit!
Mario 64 Master is an absolute gangster for coming back after 15 years to reclaim what was rightfully his.
I love hearing about TAS progress, because unlike Speedruns, it's not all just trying to have good enough reflexes until you win, or resetting & starting the run over if you don't get good RNG; A TAS is all about the routing & strategy, & not whether someone's luck or reflexes are good enough that day. & that's why I love it!
Thanks so much for uploading this! Will probably comment more later!

Practical TAS’s next video will be released on a frame when the timer displays a 4 in the hundredths digit :)
Thank you for making this incredible video. That was so much fun to watch. So glad to be part of this community
Mudi is from my home region, its the second smallest federal state in Germany
We have 3 active players (lmfao)
He is an absolute legend around here
great video! also, not sure how possible it is, but it would be really cool to see over-lays of the first and last record set for each character to see how it's evolved.
That's an interesting idea, a full overlay might need TAS recreations of the records though since the cameras would get out of sync.
@@PracticalTAS So then the only question is: are you up to the task or know anyone who is and is willing to help?
@@PracticalTAS yeah I was thinking maybe there'd be an easier method of fixing the stage to a set view, similar to what stabilization software does. But I'm no video editor so I'll leave it up to the pros like you
@@justinzchia that probably wouldn't work since old runs are recorded with shaky cameras instead of screen recording software
No. . . I am the real Justin!
That is actually my name
Great video essay.
I loved your scripted video on the Peach runs, and I was patiently awaiting your next video! This was a certified banger.
I look forward to seeing the new Nana (or was it Popo) route in another video, but for now know that I found your channel through Peach and am glad to see more. Looking forward to the next time I hear the Smash voice declare "A New Record!"
I love how indepth your videos on BTT are. It reminds me of Summoning Salt
mario 64 master sounds too cliche to be real
"its been 15 years... cant let sleeping dogs lie huh?"
*reclaims his record*
As a casual smash fan who's never been big into speedrunning, this was incredible. Honestly amazing narration and storytelling to draw you in and keep you invested in this tale. Despite a 25 minute runtime I was hanging on every word. Seriously well edited!
Great vid PTAS! I've really been looking forward to this.
Awesome, I've been waiting for a video about this bounty ever since your Peach Break the Targets world record history!
12:10 I think I speak for a lot of us: when you say "the fastest non-TAS way is to ..." we're all wondering 'okay but now I'm curious what the TAS way is?'
(I mean we're all subscribed to a channel called Practical TAS, so we're super interested in that stuff)
Come back to us, Mr. Smash man
Mario 64 Master coming to set the record again after 15 freaking years was legendary! That was amazing man!
What a great video 🙂 amazing as always
Also cool to see myself at 23:37 Pog
ThankEgg
Wow! Easily my favorite part is the returning Samus runner, actually inspirational. One of those stories I wish i could explain to all my friends who don't know about speedrunning 😅
so glad you're continuing to make stuff like this, love your videos andrew
Awesome video. Really beautiful community effort and your passion for this really shines like it did in the Peach video.
I love these speedrun history videos. They're always so fascinating!
This is one of the coolest videos on gaming history I’ve ever watched. I never even liked melee but I’m just so happy there are games that so many people can band together to get excited about.
This video is soooooooo high quality and well edited
One player was responsible for sub 3, and that player was Matt Turk!! :p
This video deserves WAY more views. Super well researched and really entertaining - obviously made with a lot of passion, just like the Peach video. keep up the good work mate!
Amazing archiving work
damn i was about to check what new stuff you had and this is actually the lasy video youve done
Wonderful video! Thanks for making it and shout out to all of the people behind the BTT push :)
that video was awesome. it really felt like a JOURNEY. i dont even play melee but shoutout to everybody that worked their asses off for those records
Great video. I loved the peach break the targets one as well.
Happily subbed. Great work!
Oh wow, The saga continues, I can’t wait for the next video, this was was incredible
the two further second of improvement sounds even more interesting than this
Bro please bring more vids like this one it brings ungodly amounts of dopamine to my brain with the voiceovers omg
Your history videos are so dope, especially the BTT ones! And this one had the coolest arc so far. Super just my opinion but I think if you yoinked some music from summoning salt it would make the story seem more epic. Melee music is great but I've heard it so much I just tune it out. Idk, just something you could think about. Hope this video blows up!
Can you do a TAS self destruct tourney, there has to be a dominant character that can SD the fastest
There actually is a TAS of unlocking all the characters that uses SDs to get the game count up as fast as possible. It uses Captain Falcon because his combo of run speed and fall speed is optimal lol th-cam.com/video/gmOzz9kNV0M/w-d-xo.html
A masterpiece. Well done by the Melee BTT speedrunners!
Loved this, it was so interesting to watch!
This kind of video always gets me, this is so good
Duuuuuude so stoked to see a new ptas video in my feed
Great video! Love the commentary
Considering the progress over the previous decade this is extremely impressive. Would love to see more community challenges like this... Good clean fun.
Can't wait for the next part! This is so cool
M64M coming back be like "The Return of the King"
astounding work by all parties. congratulations, smash fans.
Great content, really enjoyed the video! Keep it up
Mario 64 Master is a mad man with the code sheets just to push Metroid world record just a few frames is remarkable 0/ McCloud and Pikachu and young link world records are impressive too :)
its so insane how much skill some people have. truly incredible.
Been waiting for this!
Great video. Love your BTT content
Great video again :) I remember watching this all go down
This was all very exciting to see happen, especially the back-to-back records!
Neat analysis video! Thanks for uploading!
Andddd subscribed. Great research and great video!
your peach video was GOAT. i love these so much
Ah yes another speed running history video!!!! Just what I was craving. Not a lot of people cover these things.
what a fucking great video dude, the script writing here is phenomenal
based content as always, love hearing about the speedruns/TAS/insane gaming achievements that you're passionate about - looking forward to the next one :)
I enjoy this content so much. Much love
all that was missing was the summoning salt intro track. what a fantastic video!!
Storytelling in this video is fabulous, thanks!
I cant believe it's been so long since the bounty was announced. I remember reading that thread. Absolutely wild.
Amazing video essay, Practical.
This is a great video, very well done. I didn't realize the BTT total was this far below 3:00 now.
We been blessed by a praticalTAS video
This is a sick video, love it bro
What an absolute treat P-TAS!
Great to see hanky panky on the young link leader boards! Incredible competitor and well above average speedrunner
Even after the death of the competitive play scene, melee still remains a cult until this day LOL
22:28 "first blood was soon struck"
Hi, I'm Peter Griffin, here to explain the joke. what appears to be an error in scripting here is the inaccuracy in depicting the symbiotic relationship between the two words blood, and draw. at some point in history it became common for actions involving cutting human skin and rupturing the blood vessels underneath causing the blood to leak from out of the body into open air to be distinguished with the word "Draw". this is possibly most famously depicted in the movie "First Blood" which was released in 1982. in this film, the character Rambo, when talking to another character, says the legendary line, "they drew first blood, not me". granted, this use of the phrase is less literal than other uses, considering the first antagonistic action taken against Rambo was the harassment from the police officer which did not involve physical violence, but the point still stands. Now, as I was saying: this youtube video seemingly incorrectly uses the word Struck instead of Draw, though in this case the grammatically correct form of the word would be Drawn. this is NOT actually an error as has been pointed out by zero (0) other commenters before me, and there is no confusion that this comment needs to resolve. in truth, the writer of this script was actually referring to the way that the characters in beloved video game super smash brothers melee Strike the targets in one of the more technically inclined sub-game modes, "break the targets". in a classified interview sometime last month, user Practical TAS informed our interviewer that this choice of wording was intentional, and it spoke to the inherent violence of the game mode and the highly competitive nature of the speedrunning community.
Practical TAS declined to comment further.
Excellent video!
ayy my reddit post made it in the vid lolol
great storytelling and vid! :)
This video was recommended to me 18 times
And I'm glad I finally watched it
BTT content is the best keep it coming please and thank you
The moment you notice names you know in other fields like Savestate, that I now for speedrunning Zelda OoT and not SSBM target contest :)
Damn, Samus players are built different, Mario 64 Master coming back 15 years later to get the throne back lol.
It was very fun following the end of this barrier when it was going on
Great vidéo !
Samus's run is just too fucking sick. Those wavelands down the stairs o_o
Man I can't believe how exciting you made a few seconds
you're a legend ptas
Serious question: if competitive Melee players can modify their controllers with notches for more reliable angles between gates, what's stopping BTT speedrunners from doing the same thing?
Nothing, but the bit about Pikachu he was saying it's not an angle where the control stick can rest against the rim at all
@@Chizypuff can’t you just make the rim bigger by adding more plastic?
@@Alsry1 yeah but then for every other time you want to move in that general direction you run into the plastic
cant wait to watch
incredible video
This is all astonishingly interesting
I actually met Mudi at a retro gaming convention in Germany. Someone was schmooving on the lone Gamecube setup which happened to have melee on it, so I played him in a game, got dumpstered, then he said "do you want to see something cool?" Then preceeded to complete Young Link's BTT trial in record time. After that, he told me who he was. Really cool guy.
Amazing video
another fantastic video :)
