Hi! For those wondering, Low% True Ending (popularised my runners like Skurry) is not an actual leaderboard category, because it is not run single segment. (Meaning the player takes breaks in the run) This category is the longest No Major Glitches category on the leaderboards for Hollow Knight! Will I run Low% TE at some point? Probably!
The fact that dream bosses and Radiance are in the journal implies that The Hunter has a dream nail and has defeated the Radience. A Hunter boss would be sick
Don’t mean to be rude but only the journal entries that have his mark on it are actually written by him, bosses that have the dream symbol are just there for gameplay purposes(dream warriors and Grimm troupe enemies fall under this)Still the radiance does have his mark in her journal entry so yeah I don’t know how the fuck he fought her
@@The_Average_Enjoyer I get what you're saying, but the question then becomes: who wrote them in world? I understand them existing for the player, but they ARE in the journal.
@@The_Average_Enjoyer That would make sense. Another option would be that the hunter DID write them, but only because of legends about dream warriors, rumours about the Troupe, and maybe he found the Radiance statue on the Crown. He could've even wrote the White defender entry using stories about Ogrum in his golden age. The other dream bosses could only have been written by the knight, the others could have potentially be done by the Hunter
I wondered why the first run was Neglect-Happy Couple-Banishment until I realized you can get them back-to-back-to-back (Sheo is in Greenpath, Zote’s corpse is right outside Howling Cliffs, and the Nightmare Lantern is in Howling Cliffs proper). Also I died laughing at “Hornet went to Australia to work on Silksong”.
Can I just say It’s under appreciated how hard some of these speed runs and skips are, and you have gotten wr at some point for some really difficult runs like 0 geo or ASS and that’s super impressive I also enjoy your videos a lot they’re very entertaining, I love watching all the different speedrun categories for HK and seeing all their routes and unique strats
Blue is the anti-Hollow Knight TH-camr. He saves and gets exited over grubs, talks to Elderbug and is over-all doing things other HK TH-camrs don't do. Finally, someone who doesn't hate grubs-
@@l.n.3372 funny thing about that. I don’t think fireborn actually hates grubs. Based on all that I’ve watched... he’s saved grubs when he doesn’t have to.
@@shilohmagic7173 He edits out the process tho. Usually only showing him approaching the grub and then leaving the room, editing out the breaking of said grub jar. So he clearly wants his fans to continue to think that he hates the grubs, even if it's just a running joke by now. Also, he actively won't save them - or be shown saving them - even when time or speed doesn't matter. Unlike say, other popular runners who will always break grub jars for fun.
Dang, that is some serious dedication. I got all 63 in three days (after doing them on PS4 first so it was not the first time), and that was hard enough. You and Skurry are both madlads/madpeople.
My favourite long speedrun (it's a meme speedrun so not as legit as this category, which is insane I didn't think non-meme runs could go for so long) is the cutting every blade of grass in Hollow knight speedrun it's crazy
Regarding isma’s tear, I watched so many speed runs that I thought the acid skip was the intended way to do it haha so I did! Wasn’t until I got there I saw another way in
@just a flygon would low% godhome be that long? If anything, it would be shorter, right? I mean, having to kill all bosses without most abilities only sounds hard, not long. The reason low% TE takes so long is because you have to farm essence from enemies, which has a drop rate of 0.5%. That's why it's so time consuming. Killing all bosses without basic equipment may sound tough but it doesn't sound particularly long. Unless I'm missing something obvious.
@@nguyeninhtri1155 of course it'd be long because of low damage, but I don't think that'd compare to 40 hours of one room, and I assume you're talking about that. I don't think they're all that similar, really, they're two super different runs, I think they're just mentioned with each other because it's the same game and they're both low percent
@@nguyeninhtri1155 Kinda old comment, but the Godhome ending also requires Voidheart, so yeah you would have to not only grind for essence but also kill the bosses, so low% godhome would be painfully longer than low% true ending
@@niebarkol2343 yeah you’re kinda late but what i meant was that the essences would be easier to get considering that you have to kill all bosses including dream warriors and dream bosses. Low% TE is hard because low% means that you have to kill as little bosses as possible. When your default condition is all bosses low% godhome is just a matter of how little progression items and abilities do you need to beat godhome.
finally watching this video!! i had surgery when you were streaming for the most part so i couldn't watch most of it, but i did get to see you finish!! great job editing this, blue, its so well done! uwu
love the video! i was there for your whole run and the anxiety of the 1hp at the end almost did me in, but it was so fun! always happy seeing your content :)
This is the first video I have seen of yours, which btw is amazing, and I am a active Skurry watcher. Thus meaning when you actually talked to elder bug, and said you loved him, shocked me so much. I am glad he is getting the love, I hope you got some too :]
Just imagine the first time you discover the Grimm bug for me it was scary and dream nailing it and leaving seeing the destroyed lantern fixed is terrifying
Blue every time he wins on one HP “Wait I’m goated” Also blue if you see this you got me into speed running and I am enjoying myself so much. Also can you give any tips on acid skips, I mess them up all the time.Thank you
This was pretty good, but it could be better! All content NMG! No geo mounds unsmacked! No unnecessary cruelty unperformed! No dialogue unspoken! No secrets ununveiled!
What I did for all the Achievements was to have three Save Files First and Third ones were normal mode, and the Second file was a Steel Soul one. I mainly got as many Achievements as possible on the first file (including stuff like Pure Completion), and do the rest of the achievements on the Steel Soul one. If I let Zote live on my normal Playthrough, he'd die in the SS mode and so it goes with all these options. While I went for 112% on my main file, I went for just 100% on the SS one, so I was missing quite a lot of stuff, but wasn't at risk of losing the run to The Hollow Knight (I did lose once to Revek, and almost lost twice to Traitor Lord, but I got saved by the Quit to Menu option. Don't judge me, it's Steel Soul) Third file was the Speedrun one. I completed the game in 4 hours, so I got both Speedrun achievements out of the way And there we go, that's how I got every Achievement in Hollow Knight. Hope this helps anyone
That’s a second place run! GG, I was there at the start and lurked for 6 hours and I left after p5 cus I thought the run was over (sorry i wasn’t there at the end slaup420)
best category is no doubt no% 113% kings pass% only runnable on version schrodinger, where everything exists and doesnt exist at the same time, where you fight the hunter, the final boss tamed by the pale king in his palace, the king's pass (/s)
Here's a tip you can get Hollow Knight sealed siblings and dream no more in one save file first you beat the game normally and then you get voidheart and then you do the other two endings

it is an actual category in my heart
Don't have to take breaks Yaknow 👀
(Please take breaks this is a joke)
How did you make is so that you don't have any achievements and still have your play time in well over a 1000h?
You're insane(ly awesome)
There’s a first for everything :D
*fire and skurry:* quits out at 2 hp in steel soul run
*blue:* equips fury
don't forget: there's low% true ending too (~40h of grinding birds for essence according to skurry)
the most luck dependent run imaginable
@@hawkdracano3840 because you need so much essence the average time would be quite consistent I imagine
@@x23-w1o I don't mean the average run time; I mean the first place spot would be entirely decided by RNG
isn't there a guy doing serious attempts at low% godhome? Also, not really according to Skurry since the madman had finished that run.
@@sarvashaktimaan7106 there is. Dude's insane but he's so underrated

@@The_Average_Enjoyer That would make sense.

The Radiance description is more of a infection description
I wondered why the first run was Neglect-Happy Couple-Banishment until I realized you can get them back-to-back-to-back (Sheo is in Greenpath, Zote’s corpse is right outside Howling Cliffs, and the Nightmare Lantern is in Howling Cliffs proper).
Also I died laughing at “Hornet went to Australia to work on Silksong”.
achievement 64 is being super cool and fun; you get that every day ♥️
Yes.
Whats achivement 64
Edit:oh fuck
@@karagaaa that's what I thought when I first saw it xD
what is achievement 64?
Waiting for silksong?

Does any other major Hollow Knight runner besides Fire born actually hate grubs, tho? He seems to be the only one who actively dislikes them.
You spealt excited wrong but because this is a wholesome comment you’re forgiven
@@l.n.3372 funny thing about that. I don’t think fireborn actually hates grubs. Based on all that I’ve watched... he’s saved grubs when he doesn’t have to.

So Skurry doesn't exist?
Dang, that is some serious dedication. I got all 63 in three days (after doing them on PS4 first so it was not the first time), and that was hard enough. You and Skurry are both madlads/madpeople.
madlad is a gender neutral term imo
@@_peepee_ that seems very irrelevant to this conversation
@@freddy4603 how? i just feel like saying “madlads/madpeople” is kinda redundant
@@_peepee_ oh, I didn't notice he said it that way the first time I read it. My bad
MonStahLer and emray have both done All Achievements as well! Go check them out if you haven't already, they are both great.
Blue: *does a Sans impression that makes me double take and drop my toothbrush*
Blue: "I cannot do the Sans voice."
my god blue i thought you died in the radiance fight when you said "and then, THIS happened" i was so nervous
And then Blue got THIS run
1 hit away from losing like 8h of work
how he was so calm i'll never understand, one hit away from having to redo an entire TE run
"Grubby!!!"
*1 seond later*
*"MUDER"*
*1 second later*
"Grubby!!!"
Rollercoaster of emotions
blue is actually one of the most wholesome youtubers
My favourite long speedrun (it's a meme speedrun so not as legit as this category, which is insane I didn't think non-meme runs could go for so long) is the cutting every blade of grass in Hollow knight speedrun it's crazy
'I should have listened to Monstah when he told me not to do this.'
-Skurry (all achievements vod)
Watching this live was wonderfull, the end of the run was insane
(loved the editing btw)
Regarding isma’s tear, I watched so many speed runs that I thought the acid skip was the intended way to do it haha so I did! Wasn’t until I got there I saw another way in
I was there the entire time, it was great to see you finally pull it off!
24:30 to 25:00 is my favorite moment of this video.
"longest Hollow Knight Speedrun" *laughs in Low% True Ending*

Lots of really cool and fun editing in this one! It was a great stream and this is a great video :D glad I was there!

Bro said « Uwu » ironically 💀
Finding out how young you are is a jumpscare every single time.
I'm glad the video conveniently doesn't mention the 3 failed attempts :)
love the video! i was there for your whole run and the anxiety of the 1hp at the end almost did me in, but it was so fun! always happy seeing your content :)
This guy got more done in 10 hours than I have in 100
Blue after streamin everyday for several months to get Twitch Partner:
"I ain't quite done yet"
This is the first speedrunner i've seen that talks to elderbug
34:06 The Hollow Knight: is ripping Radiance’s face open
Seer: aaAaaA
That was a very entertaining video ! Thanks man ! Impressive skills !
27:49 thought he'd wipe his save by accident lol
i watched that stream all the way through and i had no regrets. congrats on finishing it blue!
22:40
"im fifteen, yes, i am"
WAIT WHAT. /pos
This is the first video I have seen of yours, which btw is amazing, and I am a active Skurry watcher. Thus meaning when you actually talked to elder bug, and said you loved him, shocked me so much. I am glad he is getting the love, I hope you got some too :]
ALL ON THE FIRST TRY - FOR REAL!
(that being said though congratulations on completing the run u did a great job!!)
21:50 That joke was smarter than you give yourself credit for
would've been better if he didn't explain it
Just imagine the first time you discover the Grimm bug for me it was scary and dream nailing it and leaving seeing the destroyed lantern fixed is terrifying
18:44 you mught even call it... the genocide run.
24:33 is beyond cursed. genuinely made me want to bolt
subbed
ooooo i love suffering! can't wait to watch, you've earned it lol
Me running all achivements run and thinking its long: dude 10 hours is just too much
Low% runners: thats short
I’m not the only who didn’t know he was 15 until now? Right?
Blue only has 2.3K subs? This man has some very high quality content. How is he not at 100K?
I'm from the future, and he basicaly 10x-ed his subs in the span of one year (29 thousand-ish)
@buttercat620 I'm from the future and he's multiplied it again
Love the video, already subbed!
Skurry: laughs in low% true ending
You absolute madlad. You legend. You absolute god gamer. What an impressive run, wow
Skurry with the low percent true ending in 46 hours. We've been clickbaited.(jk great vid)
I'm a huge fan of Undertale and I'm so happy my favorite TH-camr made a reference to it!
“yo elderbug!!” *intense dialogue skipping* “lov you :)”
This looks like the perfect thing to watch at 2:04AM while being sick and should be resting.. Good 👍
Great video! Now do the 45 hour long run
Comfy vids and streams :3
MARS WHAT DO I DOMMC3NT5 COMMETN
you okay there ducky?
2 years later and this is still an absolute gem
its criminal that sans plays at enemy grinding montages
I have to be honest, when I saw that Radiance footage I thought it was normal Radiance and thought you were going to have to restart the whole run.
23:50 it’s funny cause it’s sans happy music and- and you’re literally trying to commit genocide XD
me: tempted to subscribe
blue: mentions jennifer bug
me: ok yep
This is the first dude I’ve seen to have the confidence to slap the exploding bats.
Amazing elderbug talk skills
It's kinda sad that the first, shorter run is the the one with the good decision (disbanding the troupe, sparing nailsmith, and killing zote)
man, yesterday i just got the speed completion achievement (12:58:30) and this is making me feel physical pain. great work!
Really wish there was a full vod of this somewhere
Blue every time he wins on one HP
“Wait I’m goated”
Also blue if you see this you got me into speed running and I am enjoying myself so much. Also can you give any tips on acid skips, I mess them up all the time.Thank you
This was pretty good, but it could be better! All content NMG! No geo mounds unsmacked! No unnecessary cruelty unperformed! No dialogue unspoken! No secrets ununveiled!
Drop the full VOD, I’m sure I’m not the only one that’s watch it XD
Those saves on the Nosk fight first run are some good shit
This man needs more subscribers
I don't care if he's not passed 100k, he should be verified
26:03 those creepy eyes at the top right side scares me
21:45 that happened to me during p1 lmfao
12:06 he did what we were all thinking
It’s videos like this that let me know just how much of the game I didn’t know about☠️
What I did for all the Achievements was to have three Save Files
First and Third ones were normal mode, and the Second file was a Steel Soul one. I mainly got as many Achievements as possible on the first file (including stuff like Pure Completion), and do the rest of the achievements on the Steel Soul one.

Don't judge me, it's Steel Soul)
Third file was the Speedrun one. I completed the game in 4 hours, so I got both Speedrun achievements out of the way
And there we go, that's how I got every Achievement in Hollow Knight. Hope this helps anyone
Props to the legend who cuts down all of this footage into 35 minutes.
you've literally gotten farther than what i did in >80 hours
Blue being so good at HK at 15 made me dissociate.
That’s a second place run! GG, I was there at the start and lurked for 6 hours and I left after p5 cus I thought the run was over (sorry i wasn’t there at the end slaup420)
The funniest bit, is that when you spent long farming mawlurks in the ancient basin, I was doing the exact same thing on my saved file.
what a dedication. Just insane
Blue how do you breath being a hand do you have more or do have a hand as a placement for a head
very cool and also poggers
27:00 dude named idskip: "hey thanks"
22:40 Wait he’s really fifteen ?! So he’s just one year older than me ?!! wtf
Whats funny is that I've done 4 runs that were like 9-10 hours, and I had fun -w-
Just gonna say, great choice on the typeface.
why do you only have 5k subs, such good content! def gonna watch your other videos:))
best category is no doubt no% 113% kings pass%
only runnable on version schrodinger, where everything exists and doesnt exist at the same time, where you fight the hunter, the final boss tamed by the pale king in his palace, the king's pass (/s)

You need a BlueVods channel 'cause I'd watch the full 10hr thing xD
19:05 villain arc yet talking to elder bug
blue saying this is long.
skurry with his 44-hour true ending run: childs play
This reminded me when fireborn tried to do shade skip on steel soul
Man my heart Stopped at radiance at the very end
Low% True Ending: "Look what they need to mimic a FRACTION of our power!"
i am really surprised i didnt know you had a yt channel, i have been following you on twitch for a very long time
i was on my ps4 for 12 hours so i understand ur feelings at this moment
one year aniversary for your suffering :)
just saw a skurry video: 'the 45 our run just got longer'
