Alright, time for another spooky run, let's...wait, what do you mean it's December?
Eh, screw it. You literally fight Santa Claus in Bloodborne, this is a Christmas video now.
Now the only question is : can you beat Bloodborne by only throwing eggnog at enemies?

Hope you're all having a wonderful holiday season! What videos do you want to see in 2025? It doesn't have to be a challenge run...but it probably will be
30 seconds and already 20 comments
That show how strong the theBacklog and soulborne community is really are@@sam-s6o
Hi lemon, out of curiosity how long still we get staffs only for dark souls 2 and 3?
As a so-called "science hippie" aka person working in biology... we do, we force feed spiders alcohol... we also gave octopedes lsd and scan their dreams... we like doing weird stuff.
wasnt the fun fact that spiders got drunk of coffee not that they could get drunk?
This item is stronger than you'd think, you can kinda just brew-te force your way through the game!
Oh no here comes the puns
@@JKLeeds lemon needed any easier run. Lately some of these have had him accursing his fate.
sometimes i kinda wanna hate you for the bad puns, if i wouldnt giggle so much
This guy is a pun machine !
yeah ik right? you kinda brew´s through the game with ease
Just when you lose all hope on Monday, the firebomb goddess sends lemon to make things right. All glory to the charcoal throne!
Mystra sending Gale to save us
CURSE YOU BREW!!!! I HEREBY VOW... YOU WILL BREW THIS DAY!!!
(Of course Lemon won't understand Elden Ring references)
What's Elden Ring?

@@TheBacklogs some dark souls rip-off
Sounds like something starscream would say
An idea for you lemon, can you beat bloodborne as a dark souls player? The concept is simple, no guns in left hand, only shields, and in your right almost anything goes that would fit into a souls game (especially HMB) hopefully you see this comment
Not to mention heavy armor. Not that you can fat-roll in BB other than the 1.0 lantern bug.
No weapon transforms during fights also
Thats a really good idea. And maybe the fashion could be the cainhurst knight set. I think it'd be cool if there was a Sekiro challenge run in the future as well, or a Chikage only run. It sounds overpowered, but in this run, you can't use guns and the Chikage must always be in it's transformed state. Meaning you'll always have your life drained throughout the game. Sounds fun!
I literally beat it the first time just using Ludwigs greatsword to get a straight sword. Didn't use guns, and I've never used shields. It's not much of a challenge
So no lock on? For the proper DS roll instead of dodge
"Accursed brew" is some biochem student's first attempt at making tequila in their backyard swamp. Blood might be more intoxicating than alcohol in Yharnam, but nothing will ruin your night harder than bad Tequila.
You know what makes bad tequila easy to swallow? A bit of lemon
@@qwirkt
I’d swallow some lemon
"DID YOU FORGET TO LEVEL UP VITALITY AGAIN LEMON?" genuinely sent me 😂😂😂
the man can't help himself. he must glass cannon
Fun fact! When you drop into Rom's arena, you have a bit of invincibility so you don't go splat. If you can dodge as you land, skipping the landing animation, you can get 5 free blood bullets without losing any HP.
Thank god, a Lemon upload. Job hunt has been going on for a month and my mood is at an all time low.
Here's hoping you get something good soon!
Don't give up, skeleton!
A hooter must hoont
You will find one, just keep at it! It definitely can be demoralizing but try to look at it as you will find the one that will be better at the end of this hunt.
Been hunting for a year and am on borrowed time since once my gran passes, my dad and I will probably be homeless. I'm constantly scraping the bottom of the barrel for jobs but nothing is calling me back or giving me hours I can actually work feasibly. It sucks.
thanks for the message to skip ahead 30 seconds if we aren't interested in the merch, that's like so cool for you to do! you really care about your audience, and that means a ton as a youtube viewer.
anyways, keep doing what you're doing, i love your content
I feel like the type of person to forcefeed alcohol to spiders would be very interesting to have a conversation with.
At a distance. With some kind of protective barrier between them and me.
Wait till you meet the guy that gave spiders drugs to see the effects on web making
@@corvosweet-moon8629 Nice web, Mr. Crack Spider.
Oh yeah, I remember the weed spider
"Whats that? It's almost December?!"
Bro missed 2 marks.
Blacksky Eye, or Soul Arrow, and Accursed Brew, or Fireball. The most basic of spells are deadly endgame tools in Bloodborne, and I love that.
Blacksky eye is my main weapon and amygdala arm for melee. Love those two.
I love your icon
You should do a Kos Parasite only run of Bloodborne... I'm sure that will be completely smooth sailing and not difficult in the slighest
I watched JK Leeds do that. Funny run to watch
preparing and making such a build functional e kos-t a lot of time
18:21 At Thanksgiving, I was drinking a family favorite called Drambuie, which is a Scottish sipping whiskey. My girlfriend had never heard of it before, and was curious about it but doesn't drink, so I let her take a sniff. She immediately said it smelled like nail polish remover, and I still can't get that out of my head.
That... Can't be good.
To be fair all nail polish removers are alcohol.
That stuff is cough medicine
I have over 1,000 hours in Bloodborne, and this is my first time learning about this item
"You know for someone who loves maps-"
We were THIS close to an alternate universe where Lemon makes Paradox game videos. Crusader Kings challenge runs or something.
0:23 it IS December
I was in a weird headspace today, but this video brought me a sense of peace. Appreciate the pick-me-up, Lemon. Good stuff as always.
The exchange with Lady Maria in her intro cutscene had me spit my coffee! ☕
I felt that scream in my soul when ebreitas killed you with the tiniest sliver of health
fun fact lemon. hunter tools do not stop scaling. meaning you can crank that arcane stat to 99 and still get more damage out of them.
Did you say... Crank that? Oh no
-YOOUUUUU. /beeping.
Yeah he says that in the video friend
YOOOUUUUUUUUU
He literally says your fun fact... maybe use your listening ears...
Shinji... Crank that soulja boi.
Backlogs uploading a Bloodborne video? THE PHILOSOPHY MUST BE TRUE, A REMASTER IS INCOMING
...BRB giving the orb weaver spider in my garden a shot of Titos. She deserves it after her hard work protecting my Hydrangea
may 2025 be the year of Another Crab's Treasure
i went to go skip the merch break, but lemon telling me its ok to skip and even giving me the amount of time to skip, so i went back and watched it, poster respects my time, ill respect his cool merch.
12:47 I NEVER WOULD'VE THOUGHT THAT'S BARON'S CASTLE LMAOOO
I legit thought Sunlight Blade and Vaati Vidya were coming up for a second there haha
When they did the spider web stringing experiment, they also gave the spider(s) cocaine, acid, and caffeine to see their web making skills while under the influence lol
ALL HAIL LEMON SLAYER OF BOREDEM. REAPER OF SORROW. HE HAS BLESSED US AGAIN PRAISE BE!!!
wasnt able to catch merch last time!! really exited to get some fire bomb academy merch!!
Been waiting for this video for months!!!
10:45 There is a very informative video here on youtube about the effects of alcohol and other "substances" on spiders, well worth a watch if you have some spare time.
Oh? What's it called/whose it by because that really does sound like an interesting watch!
@@brendanp5498 It's called Spiders On Drugs by Andrew Struthers
Seeing a backlogs video on one of the saddest days of the year for me really cheered me up.
Thank you.
As a scientist, I can say that while I've never been involved in a study that got a bunch of spiders hammered, I absolutely would if asked.
Scientific study is just a sophisticated version of, "Dude, what if we mixed these?"
Let's gooooo finally another souls game challenge, although I was expecting some difficulty, a pretty much arcane only/fire ball only run but in Bloodborne was a really good watch
Awesome job!! Man I hadn't seen your channel since excom. It's grown like crazy!! Good job!!!
17:20 Is that Cleric Beat I'm hearing?
You know its funny, i always see your videos and watch them but always thought there wasn't alot to watch (because youtube algorithm only showed the new vids) yet i decided to check the old videos and found a bunch of gems (mainly salt and sanctuary videos) and watched them all. Now most of the time now they are playing in a loop while i am playing games :D
Leave it to Yur... Yoe... Djura! ...to always make things extra spicy.
There’s this old game called “alter echo” that I never beat as a kid but have seen speed runs since. Maybe look into that game and see if it’s worth a run or even find a way to handicap yourself during it? Had to add something love your videos huge fan can’t wait to see everything you have in store and end up doing for your community!!!
...wait, is that the one with the three morphs and youre like yellow and black? I have a weirdly vivid memory of that game.
loved the the face reveal gag during the merch plug!
great video lemon, big fan of the script for this one. also i kinda wanna try out the hunter tools now 🤔
funfact for Lemons X-com 2 runs that happen soon(tm).
with the war of the chosen DLC, it is possible to get the same breakthrough research twice, once by research and once by undercover missions, BUT only if you dont already have it.
i currently have a run with +3 bonus dmg on all weapons. +2 from tier 3 bonus dmg twice and +1 from weapon type research.
it should make a X-com 2 no tier upgrade run absolutely possible (or just no weapons tier research).
Thank god youre finally doing an elden ring run. You only hated it because everyone loved it. Im glad we finally broke you.
Your vibes are immaculate and I love your videos. Thank you for uploading and keep being awesome!!!
Great video Lemon. This was a fun watch.
ah yes, the accursed brew- Strawberry Dr Pepper
I was craving more bloodborne content, and here you are posting more. Thank you so much, Mister Lemon. I enjoy your content alot!
Runs like this where it's more a theme than a challenge are a very good refresher every now and then. Not every challenge must be insurmountably hard for the video to be entertaining.
I always love your content Lemon. Brings a smile to my face during the winter months where I experienced some of the worst shit in my life.
Hey man I enjoyed the content as always, but I’m reminiscing of your miracle only DS1 run. The storytelling and evolution of the character was amazing. I’d love to see more of that
Damn Lemon, I just realized you've pased 500k subs. It feels like yesterday when I came across this little channel with barely 20k subs and was surprised by how good the content was. Congrats and may you see many more milestones broken and challenge runs beaten. Thank you for all the fun.
More merch? Hells yeah! My girlfriend got me the Lemon plush as a birthday gift, and I love it. What are the chances we'll get a "God's Teeth!" pin?
Higher, now!
"What's your excuse? I'm DRUNK!!"
Accursed Brew is basically the skull of a villager that got lobotomized to death and is so filled with rage and hatred that his soul lingers in its skull and acts as a "curse" upon the living, damaging your opponents when summoned. Vengeful spirits in Bloodborne are skull apparitions, as mentioned in executioner's gloves description. I guess his desire for revenge no longer cares about guilt or innocence.
I'm gonna be honest and say that I do not play these games myself.
But watching an expert doing challenge runs is entertaining. So I will bow and say thank you for making these videos.
That is the first time ive seen ebrietus grab also im glad you have stopped obliterating your sanity for a short while
03:16 Say WHAT now!? I never thought I'd live to see the day!
For real, I could have sworn he said that Elden Ring runs just weren't happening. Due to OCD issues or something.
Been missing your content, great to have ya back!
Damn i remember watching your salt and sanctuary videos a long time ago. Glad to see you are still making videos!
2:40 you look exactly like how I imagined
I'm a simple individual, I see Bloodborne content I click.
You are no simple individual, but a man of culture
I'm not even sure it's possible without mods, but Diablo 2 only yelling. (Shout Barbarian)
He gets a kick out of brew
Laurence waking up with a hangover reminded me of the thing we have in Germany called "counter-beer". And yeah it's exactly what it sounds like. Our solution for a hangover is more beer.
13:33 I love this. "DiD yoU ForgEt tO leVeL uP VitAlIty aGaIn LeMOn!?!"
This is the video I've been waiting for. I saw the livestream, but I enjoy the cut versions more because i can't watch entire streams :(
Heya Lemon! Been a fan for awhile. Actually started doing some soft challenge runs of my own because of you. It’s been a huge inspiration, although I haven’t been posting footage, i’m happy to say i’ve been doing OKAY in the Elden Ring stuff, and starting a five-game one-weapon type only run soon (Demon’s Souls, DS1,2,3 and Elden Ring.)
Regardless.
Amazing Videos as ever, Best of luck…
And Don’t go Hollow!
YAYYYY more backlogs Bloodborne. Love all your runs
YESSS I WATCHED THE LIVESTREAM AND WAS WAITING FOR THIS
Oooooo another Backlogs video! Ooo and your halfway there to a million you'll get there in due time!
Going to watch right away. Probably will be the best 25:30 of my day.
I'm so proud that lemon actually remembered to level vigor for the orphan. Brings a tear to my eye. They grow up so fast.
Once again great entertainment. Keep 'em comming. I have 3 challenge suggetions for you. No. 1: Bring the Fire Bomb Academy to Diablo 3. The Witch Docter has an ability called Firebomb so that should be a no-brainer. The catch is you learn it at level 21. Meanwhile I was thinking you could use other abilities as long as they did fire damage. First ability that does so is Firebats at lvl 5. No. 2: Any Souls game as a samurai. Im thinking just use a curved sword or something along those lines. No. 3: I saw in this video that Gehrman used a scythe and then it hit me (somehow I survived), is it time to bring Death to Bloodborne?
When I saw the live from the attempt to make this run, I was surprised how much destructive power this tool seems to have. Great video, great entertainment
18:18 -- Does a lot of damage and smells like formaldehyde? You're throwing Jägermeister!
AAHHHHH Lemon called the BSB "her"
I taught Lemon something life is now complete
1:45 I feel validated hearing someone else say this. It's something that slowly bothered me more and more about the Souls games until it eventually killed my interest in starting new characters for build ideas since the gear I'd want on them isn't available for 3/4 of the game, and the stuff that is I'd already played my fill of.
You mentioned that the brew being pure arcane damage is part of what makes it so strong in the early game, but another part is the fact it required an entire 30 arcane to even be used and is scaling with that, so you're necessarily over-levelled in the early game to make the run work and it's all in the stat you damage scales with. I could be wrong but I feel like the average playthrough isn't going to be at 30+ in their primary stat much before Amelia.
Glad you had fun in the run, it's always interesting to see how surprisingly potent firebombs/ firebomb equivalents tend to be.
I remember seeing this being done live. So many questioning if this was an actual challenge run. Nice to have a 1:1 comparison for what was kept and what wasn't in editing.
HE'S THROWING THE WHAT???? A BREWING OF SORTS?!?🗣🗣🗣🔥🔥🔥
Well timed, I just finished my first playthrough of Bloodborne so I can actually appreciate this run!
You managed to be a Pyromancer in Bloodborne.
Finally something good to sleep to. Lemon's voice is quite relaxing.
The runs Lemon wants to do, anything relating to Fromsoft. What the audience wants, ANYTHING ELSE! Still enjoying regardless.
Let’s early Xmas present, love ur videos man great work
I remember watching the Livestream a while ago but I never saw the video of that run. Happy to say it's up now 😁
Gm lemon thank you for all the great vid's I never commented before but I hope you've been well and have had great year thank you for being a light to make the world seem just a bit brighter for all those who need it.
much love to you and all those you hold dear and keep up the greatness
17:16 my favorite part of Ebrietas, feed her plenty for me
Nice video and run as always, cheers from Germany
Hi i have watched all ur videos but i barely ever comment on anything just wanted to say im so thankful for ur content its helped keep my mind off things during real hard times i have loved all of these challenges and always watch the videos the moment i get the notifications i just wanted to thank you for all the great content
Why does no one talk about how crazy it is that the beast possessed soul can use pyromancy? When nothing like that exists in this world
"Pthumerian Granny Longlegs" and "Beastly Sorcerors" in chalices beg to differ. 😉
Keeper Of The Old Lords also does a flame fan and coats their weapon, but it could be by using accessories.
I've never been this early! I've been watching tons of your vids these past few days & was hoping for more Bloodborne.
I went back to BB, recently, too cuz of the season & I finally platinumed it. I got a PS5 & sold my PS4 so I lost my recordings of me finally beating Kos & Laurence so I will be going back, eventually but I need a break so I'm doing a no summon/no magic run in Elden Ring.
Happy Holidays!
Lemon you absolute mad lad, love the content
1:59 Who starts an advertising integration like that?! Now I'm ashamed that I wanted to skip it...
Oh, and I almost forgot. Thanks for the video!
I desperately wish i knew about this during my arcane run in bloodborne! Well, I say that, while I was using the old moonlight. When you suck using the guns to parry so hard you right off guns completely, you tend to have bullets to spare for sword beams.
this and the blackskye eye were the mainstays of my arcane build when i platinum'd BB combined with the holy moonlight sword and they just cover basically everything
You make my favorite videos on the internet! All love lemon❤️
Brilliant intro with the seasons joke. Got me laughing for real 😂
I think this is my favorite Lemon video so far!
18:15 I love being reminded how damn good Lemon's taste in TH-camrs is
I find the different flavors of Soulsborne weapon challenge runs depending on the game fascinating
Like, for DS1 its mostly "this weapon doesnt scale, is it any good?"
And here in Bloodborne its a lot of "you dont get this weapon till the DLC, lets see how good it is for NG"
Is cool
