When's the amazing video, I hate you guys, You both suck, I have to watch both your horrible gameplay, love the videos you both made can't wait for the next one.
Please help. I just want to watch this video, but each time I have to go rewatch Sample's video only for Alec to tell me to rewatch it again. I've been stuck giving Sample ad revenue for years. I fear I may die before I get to see that really cool glitch mentioned in the other video.
I adore the banter from the two of you. The childlike glee and the barely held in laughs are wonderful. I feel like I'm witnessing just a small part of an incredible adventure you two had.
Watching the Ice Cannon get talked from highest tier all the way down to the bottom was one of the greatest segments to be conceived. I love Battleblock Theater, and watching this (and Sample's video of course!) got me back into the game. Such impressive techniques too -- you're a persistent bunch and insanely talented. Looks like I got 2 new channels to watch!
Hello Alec. I've been trying to watch your video for months. But everytime I get passed the 3:00 mark you tell me to watch Sample's video again. I've memorized the entire script he used word for word. Please Alec. I do not want to watch his video, it has been months and I miss the outside. Do the birds still sing? The minute is fast approaching. My time is limited. You're about to tell me to watch Sample's video so I shall end my request here. I will see you again in 48 minutes and 50 seconds
Fun fact, if you're the client and you find yourself dying from rocks you can actually get them in the places host never could. I dont know how to describe it but sometimes i can lift rhe rocks up 2 or 3 block walls without anything required other than client side lag
@@uttdcentral9700 I play a big variety of games. My most played is Binding of Isaac. Recently I got back into Wizard101 which is my main game right now
I like how you talk to Sample way more than your narrator voice, it only feels normal on 1.5 speed, while your regular talking voice is just a bit slower than average
Amazing video! I have been following sample for a while now and I'm very happy his channel introduced me to yours! I'll try to make some constructive critism in 2 short points because I will not pretend I am smart: -The video is quite long, even then it is still a good watch all throughout but it might scare away some people and I've noted down the dart weapon explanation as an example. Even if that was quite short, heck very short actually it didn't need more than the quick tierlister opinion and then the successful usage with a voiceover explaning it. -Also the chapter 4 finale part I believe you could have emphasised the fact it was hard a lil more, while explaning it you made it sound like it was really easy for you 2 but then at the end you called it very annoying, and that was after the "this level was now done" with no more explanation on why it was hard. I suppose you meant the timer made it hard which I fully believe but still. Anyways in the end I just want to say I did find the video amazing. These 2 points are not even negatives imo they are just not as positive as the rest and didn't even bother me in the watch, however I did notice them and a few more and since I truly believe there is little room for improvement considering the already very high quality I wanted to make sure to point that out in an attempt to help find what the last few issues are. Sorry if my words are somtimes hard to read or in the wrong order. I dont have an excuse I just know.
I really appreciate the feedback! I definitely agree with the point about cutting down on the dart explanation. And yeah, I think I could have done a better job of explaining finale 4. I'm glad the video was still enjoyable! There's definitely always room for improvement though
@@BarelyAlec The simple fact you read and appreciate all the feedback you get shows you have motivation to make your content even better and I'm excited to see it! I wish you the best and I promise to be a frequent viewer!
@@BarelyAlecmy best guess for a challenge like that would probably be something like no sword / magic / bow since you can deal some limited amount of damage with sandwiches and bombs while also using the bat or the goat pet for an unlimited source of damage
@@BarelyAlec Thank you so much for this, I would suggest also adding that it's from super smash as the first result I got was internet checkpoint related. (whatever that meme is about?) Anyway I got reminded about how I first heard it from playing the game and then forgot about it in addition Nintendo explains why I never remembered it's name if I ever did find it again afterwards.
Yeah, that's what I had equipped from my casual playthrough. I realized too late that I might want to change it, but then I realized that it's the best one
14:20 So many secret techniques I have no clue what this is even though I watched the other one first ;-; Edit: Nevermind, found it thanks to the comments
I keep hearing vague PvZ music in the background, am I going insane. IT KEEPS DISSAPEARING AND COMING BACK. AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA I have died
Sorry, I keep my background music really quiet since loud background music annoys me a bit. But I realize having it too quiet is annoying in a different way. I'll try turning it up a bit in the future
@@BarelyAlec Ah gotcha gotcha, well wonderful video mate I found ya from the other side. Your pacing ain’t bad! (For videos, I don’t think anyone can help you with the in game pace) Few people manage to get it as solid as you.
Curious, how did you reset your game/user data for this challenge? Story mode at least, for experiencing the game progression again, wiping ranks and such, if you do have such method.
We found a steam guide that tells you how to do it by going into the game's files since it's not a supported feature of the game. Here's the link: steamcommunity.com/app/238460/discussions/1/615086038668608207/
We knew each other from the Cuplockout and were both in a call with Chickeninja to find a 3 player challenge run. I offhandedly commented that it was too bad that the Battleblock Theater story mode wasn't 3 players since it would be cool to beat without jumping and Sam said he's been wanting to do that challenge for a long time so I just asked if he wanted to do it with me
uhhh uhhh uhhh uhh sub for sub?
Sure, but I won't watch any of your videos
Edit: Watched the Battletoads video
Don’t take the offer! He’s not worth it D:
What is this? 2010?
When's the amazing video, I hate you guys, You both suck, I have to watch both your horrible gameplay, love the videos you both made can't wait for the next one.
@@turtlegamer7261I had a stroke trying to read this.
having watched the sample vid first, the punchline of you muting your mic and going "yes!" in the discord call was so worth it
:)
same here bro
On the Sample vid it was such a weird and confusing bit, seeing the other half it's both really funny and makes complete sense.
I agree
I thought seeing Alec already booting up the game on Sample's end was hilarious, tho.
Sample: watch alec's video after this one
Alec: Watch sample's video after this one
Me: stuck in an infinite loop of battleblock theater
Whoops
TH-cam can also be beaten without jumping by having two players throw each other
3:26 it's a never ending loop
As Hatty would have wanted it
Dude, I got into that for a sec, I really wanted to watch the first one again
I just watched a 48 minutes video about a game I never played and you expect me to watch another 1-hour long video? ... okay. **grabs a drink**
Exactly!
I didn't notice this broke an hour, what
The strategies used in this are mind meltingly insane and crazy to even look at, props to you guys being able to do this!
Thanks! A lot of the tricks were so satisfying to plan and pull off
They deserve crdit for just coming up with those strategies
Please help. I just want to watch this video, but each time I have to go rewatch Sample's video only for Alec to tell me to rewatch it again. I've been stuck giving Sample ad revenue for years. I fear I may die before I get to see that really cool glitch mentioned in the other video.
All part of our plan :)
I love how the end cutscenes of finales are literal actual torture
Messed up game smh
I adore the banter from the two of you. The childlike glee and the barely held in laughs are wonderful. I feel like I'm witnessing just a small part of an incredible adventure you two had.
Glad you like it! We had a lot of fun during this challenge
Sample: *sees Alec playing* have you ever heard of the game you are playing?
Alec: um, no
deception 100
I almost tricked him
The "blast me" montage made me teehee and giggle
Yeah, Sam said that once and then we never stopped saying it
it's actually really funny that this challenge would have been impossible if any of the weapons in the game were removed except specifically ice
Ice my beloved
this is such a sick challenge. the strats and movement are so crazy
Yeah, we somehow found the perfect 2 player challenge
There are entire challenge runs with less tricks in them than one level of this run. Major props. S Tier gaming. Subbed.
Thanks! We're both really happy with how many cool tricks there are in this challenge
Samlpe's "ultimate technique" is at 17:38 in his video
Now people will know the ultimate technique : O
I think one of us is colorblind, because those "brown" caution blocks in Chapter 4 sure seem green to me.
I'm the colorblind one, don't worry
been a fan of both of your channels for a while (and also a fan of battleblock theater) so I'm really happy to see this videos :D
great work!
Thanks, I'm glad you like it!
"Ice could be 'Ol Reliable' in another game."
Time to play Pit People with only the ice mortar, it seems :p
I haven't played that yet, but it might be time to try it!
54:47 You fool! You’ve revealed the ultimate secret technique (but weirder)!
: O
Watching the Ice Cannon get talked from highest tier all the way down to the bottom was one of the greatest segments to be conceived. I love Battleblock Theater, and watching this (and Sample's video of course!) got me back into the game. Such impressive techniques too -- you're a persistent bunch and insanely talented. Looks like I got 2 new channels to watch!
I'll always defend the Ice Cannon! Glad you liked the videos and we got you back into such a great game. I hope you enjoy our other content too!
I can't believe THE Barely Alec made a video with THE Sample!!
: O
I literally just watched the other video but have no clue what some of the secret techniques are. My memory is flat
Then it will remain a secret :)
@@BarelyAlec That’s fine. I’ll honestly probably rewatch these videos in a couple months anyway
I love the collaboration, I watch both of your channels and this was a great surprise!
Happy to hear that!
This was quite wonderful - its amazing to have a buddy to do stupid challenges with and excellent video presentation on top of that
Thanks, it is great to have people to do funny challenges with!
Gotta love multiplayer shenanigans: part 2
No jump boogaloo!
I WISH you two make more videos together. Your synergy is insane.
We steam together with chickeninja pretty often and we have more multiplayer challenges with the 3 of us coming out soon
I can guarantee that this is a good video 👍
Let's find out!
This is my first vid of yours I’ve seen, good job man, you deserve more subs
Thanks, I really appreciate that!

I don't want to give a long response so you can continue in your eternal loop. Enjoy!
both of you made awesome videos for this awesome game!
Thanks! I'm glad you enjoyed both of them
This was a great collab, glad i discovered you, gonna binge all your vids now probably
Glad you liked it! I hope you like my other challenges too
i loved the video and how you two played off eachother. very funny, hope you guys do more collabs
I'm glad you liked it! We stream together pretty often, but don't have any ideas for another good 2 player challenge to be made into videos currently
These videos are very good. So many fun tricks. Reminds me of the Mario A-press challenge, but much more understandable.
Thanks! We're both really happy with how many cool tricks we were able to find and use in this challenge
Fun fact, if you're the client and you find yourself dying from rocks you can actually get them in the places host never could. I dont know how to describe it but sometimes i can lift rhe rocks up 2 or 3 block walls without anything required other than client side lag
Interesting!
Gosh, almost 2 hours of two guys blasting each other and one has a super secret technique and oh my 🤤
🤭
GUYSSSSS BARELY ALEC DID A FUNNY VIDEO
this was such a good video holy shit. i loved it and watched all of it
Glad you liked it! It's one of my favorite challenges/videos I've done
Jesus christ do you heart and respond to every comment here AND your video is fun?
Nice
Yeah, I try to respond to all comments!
I love how interconnected the game challenge youtuber community, it's nice to see
Yeah, it's cool to be part of such a nice community!
The coordination this must have took, no wonder a finale took you 2 4 hours
Yeah, it took a lot of coordination and communication but it was a lot of fun!
@@BarelyAlec Sounds cool, Maybe I'll be able to play this game with a friend some day
@@BarelyAlec say uh Alec what games do you play in your free time
@@uttdcentral9700 I play a big variety of games. My most played is Binding of Isaac. Recently I got back into Wizard101 which is my main game right now
@@BarelyAlec Issac Is cool, I’ve played it with a friend via steam remote play, it’s really fun, I don’t know much about wizard101 though
this was really cool new sub:)
Thanks, welcome to the channel!
I watched Sample's video first and I do not remember what the "secret ultimate technique" is.
Good. Now it will remain a secret
I Was In The Same Boat But I Managed To Find It Again At 17:40 In Sample's Vid.
@@Greenlightning909 OOOOH! Right, he says it so quickly in his video lmao
@@Greenlightning909stfu its a SECRET
Imagine not watching both perspectives of this amazing video
I can't!
oh nice a new video
just a little sample of what a barely alec collab is like
Sample size?
I like how you talk to Sample way more than your narrator voice, it only feels normal on 1.5 speed, while your regular talking voice is just a bit slower than average
Thanks for the feedback! I'll keep that in mind
one of the videos of all time‼
It's one of them!
2 epic challenge run videos at the sane time?? Its not Christmas yet you know?
Christmas came early B)
Hooray, game I never knew about and now know incredibly niche techniques!!
That's the true power of youtube!
Seems like an such epic concept. Just curious how much time did it take for you guys to finish the game?
About 40 hours I think
Both of your sense of humor is great
Thanks!
Just finished watching both videos. That was one hell of a journey
I hope you enjoyed the journey!
Always a good day when Alec releases a challenge video! You always go hard on the rulesets you choose
Thanks! I try to make the challenges as extreme as I can. I was really happy that Sam also wanted to ban stuff like the wings
6-9 having a nice part is the most beautiful thing in this video
:)

The duck is pretty overpowered
@@BarelyAlecnext video idea: Can WE (You and Sample) Beat Chef Saltbaker With Only The Lobber On Expert Without Getting Hit? ft. Sample
Help im stuck in an infinite loop!

This video told me to watch Sample's
Now im back here a second time.
Save me!
There is no escape :(
cool video
imma need to look at this channel more
Thanks! I hope you like my other videos
This should be called Max Flatulence% to honor how many times you two had to fart yourselves to death to gain progress.
Farting is overpowered
41:29 That robot is looking a bit sussy
That might be why nobody likes him 😤
Lol that's what I thought
the two best challenge channels grouping together
B)
Firewalking is clever
It's my favorite trick in the challenge!
@@BarelyAlecIt's a good one. And good thing it seems fairly powerful, too; this challenge feels like it probably took 40-80 hours of playing, haha
@@Erhannis Yeah, it took somewhere around 40 hours I think. Maybe a little longer
@@BarelyAlecWell, good job! Glad you got it done
20:30 what part of samples video was this? watched it through first but don't know what part specifically you're referencing
We tried using the Flying Machine to get both players in the middle of the pillars which didn't work
Secret ultimate technique introduced at 29:00
Keep it a secret though
this is really fucking cool to watch all the tech you guys used
oh also on the off chance you see this, what are your thoughts on Pit People?
Glad you liked it! It was a lot of fun figuring out all the tech together. I haven't played Pit People but I might try it some day
@@BarelyAlecyou should! it's got very different gameplay but it's an amazing sequel
not me about to add another 20 views to each video because i have to swap to see the levels in order
Enjoy!
bro I watched siph's battle block theater movie before this, and jeez are you guys more calm and collected XD
Always a good idea to watch Battleblock content!
Can you do Castle Crashers no crashing next
We've been looking for a potential challenge in that game
@@BarelyAlecmy best guess for a challenge like that would probably be something like no sword / magic / bow since you can deal some limited amount of damage with sandwiches and bombs while also using the bat or the goat pet for an unlimited source of damage
@@Reynnan123 We're thinking of doing a pets only challenge with Chickeninja
Are you by any chance slightly colour-blind? I ask because you refer to some very much green blocks at 32:24 as brown.
Yeah, I am
1:02:43 They really jumped just to undo their progress.
I really wanted ice to have a use :)
Any chance for a music list? I heard the music that started at 8:23 and knew I have heard it around so much but not named.
I'll add a list later when I have some time. That song is Stickerbush Symphony
@@BarelyAlec Thank you so much for this, I would suggest also adding that it's from super smash as the first result I got was internet checkpoint related. (whatever that meme is about?)
Anyway I got reminded about how I first heard it from playing the game and then forgot about it in addition Nintendo explains why I never remembered it's name if I ever did find it again afterwards.
dawg those aint brown blocks
I'm partially colorblind oops
wow that end of chapter 5 was a buzzer beater
Great Video. I made a Benny t-shirt and it’s awesome
That is awesome! Now you've got some Benny merch 👀
@@BarelyAlec There is a picture in #art on discord
@@gabefornow750 It looks amazing!
Is it true that Sample did all the work or is it just one of his devious lies as he is known to tell?
It's one of his classic devious lies that he wants you to believe smh
BattleBlock Theater, the game that keeps on giving
It really is amazing! Even in my casual playthrough when it first came out, I was trying to use the weapons to cheese everything I could
best collab ever
Thanks, glad you liked it!
this is basically just battleblock kaizo
lol true
So nice of this guy to promote a smaller TH-camr like sample
Gotta look out for the smaller channels
i love that you can change your heads the duck head is perfect
Yeah, that's what I had equipped from my casual playthrough. I realized too late that I might want to change it, but then I realized that it's the best one
32:10
...who's gonna tell him those blocks are actually green?
I'm a little colorblind whoops
32:11 brown????
It looks like a light shade of brown to me but I'm partially color blind so idk
oooh I see! it’s green hehe
@@happyd104r7 Makes sense. Many shades of green are what I can't see properly
my favorite part is that to beat this you have to spend money on the marketplace 😂

14:20 So many secret techniques I have no clue what this is even though I watched the other one first ;-;
Edit: Nevermind, found it thanks to the comments
Glad you found it! I would never tell anyone about the ultimate secret technique personally
I keep hearing vague PvZ music in the background, am I going insane. IT KEEPS DISSAPEARING AND COMING BACK. AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
I have died
Sorry, I keep my background music really quiet since loud background music annoys me a bit. But I realize having it too quiet is annoying in a different way. I'll try turning it up a bit in the future
This video's really good! Also, you're color blind lol, you call almost every colored block brown
Yeah, I am partially color blind
10:24 I need someone to tell me the music in the section of the video, sounds like the Smash Bros Bramble Blast, but my memory is hazy on that.
I got a solution!
*Blows up*
That how it is sometimes
Hi, hello new channel that I'm enjoying watching. Thank sample for sending me. Let me just click those youtube buttons on you real quick...
Welcome to the channel!
37:51 duelo maestro
18:54, 14:17 He didn’t talk about the ultimate technique in his own video, so what is it?
It's using the explosion of detonating a paper airplane to get up 1 block gaps without the help of a second player
He did though, it was very brief, but it was there
Are you colorblind? Genuine question because you kept calling the green blocks brown.
Yeah, I can't see certain shades of green and red
