my biggest takeaway from this was the supportiveness. No one getting mad, hating anyone, competitors were actually impressed and supportive of someone with strong driving skills.
@@azekia Also the community is so insulated that it doesn't attract scriptkiddies so people aren't likely to immediately cry foul when a new guy shows up and does well
I remember people once saying the same thing about old quake multiplayer games and praised top fraggers. But I guess sportsmanship dies when little kids(or child minded people) are involved
The reason there's so much supportiveness and sportsmanship in games like this is because there's no direct PvP. There's no direct match where the actions of one player influence another player. This game is just raw driving and racing skills. There's no cheap trick, no "he's playing like a b*tch" type of stuff that can be done. So games like this will have a much higher degree of sportsmanship than a lot of other sports/games/competitions/etc. It's fantastic, and I wish it could extend to a lot of other competitions in life.
he could have actually wanted to make risky move to have one super insane round to not really try to go far, which would have been another possible strategy
@@strawberriesiguess9118 smurfing is playing in an account that is not your main account against players lower to the rank of your main account, you don’t have to be against new players, you just need to be against players lower rated than you
Now the real trick is gonna be to silently pass the MufatTM account to other people and confuse people when both MufatTM and Wirtual enter a tournament.
@@jo_naash yes, but what if MufatTM becomes an account that passes from person to person every so often without anyone publicly knowing about the transfers and then ANYONE could be MufatTM?
The fact that riolu is placing here just goes to show it actually takes a good player to cheat undetected for so long, sad that a good player would resort to something like that though.
It also what made it almost infuriating. He's so good he doesn't need cheats to do this but he took the easy way, didn't own up to his mistakes and is now paying the full price for it. Such potential wasted, loved his content too
Dude that Riolu guy is insane. It’s like he’s playing the game in like slow mo, his inputs are so clean. Kudos to you for keeping up with such a master!
tbh this joke doesnt really make sense since riolu was caught cheating by his online inputs being completely different to his offline inputs(offline being much much faster) in the first place. So he never cheated online. Since this video was an online race riolu won it without cheating >_
@@bernardomoreira He should’ve premiered it while gathering a bunch of the top dogs in Discord somehow and recorded that reaction. At least showed them a quick best of or something😂👌🏻
@@AimanZ535 He cheated in his world record trackmania speedruns by using cheating software to play the game in slow motion. (He didn't cheat in live races like this one, though)
I've never watched any trackmania content till this video, but this is one of the most chill competitive scenes I've ever seen. ggs to all of you for having fantastic vibes
With the exception that cheating is fine on the oldest anarchy server in Minecraft. It's sad that Riolu won this event, just days before Wirtual uncovered his cheating history.
@@renerpho While this is true, it's worth remembering that riolu is still an extremely good player and his online, streamed runs on which no cheating was found, are still far into the most elite. I don't know if we'll ever know his motives but skill wasn't one of them, he had the skill to get those records legitimately but chose to do them illegitimately. Whether he was annoyed with failures, didn't want to commit the time required, or felt entitled to the records, it doesn't matter much. The point is that Riolu is still an extremely skilled player, and as those were live runs the use of slow motion timespeed manipulation wasn't used in them, regardless of the fact he's been caught having cheated several of his records, he still won that competition fair and square. I just wish he's come clean about his cheated runs, admitting to it may impact his reputation but the speedrun community in general seems quite willing for forgive people for making bad decisions if they own up to it and prove they can change, by continuing to claim innocence in face of overwhelming evidence will make it harder for people to forgive.
@@DreadKyller I agree with you on most of your points! Regarding Riolu's motives, I guess I go with Karl Jobst: Skilled players don't cheat to get a good time, they cheat to get a good time faster. What's sad about the run in the video is not that Riolu was playing unfairly, but that Wirtual almost certainly knew that he had cheated at the time of this run. I don't know, it just leaves a bitter taste. What you say about speaking up is interesting. It would be nice if those who were caught cheating would own up to their mistakes; it would be healthy both for them, and for the community as a whole. Unfortunately we don't see that very often. I am not sure I agree that the speedrun community in general is willing to forgive. What leads you to that assumption? As a side note, have you seen Karl Jobst's video about Dream (maybe not) cheating? It's an interesting lesson in bad communication, among other things. th-cam.com/video/G3Yzk-3SZfs/w-d-xo.html
Just rewatched this, and i watched it live on Riolu’s stream back then. I know what happened with the cheating, but i still wish he was still there. His cup of the day streams were so entertaining, and he won them very often, without cheating. What a bummer that he just disappeared after that…
it wasnt because riolu's a bad player that he cheated hes an extremely talented player its just every time you fail to get a run you know your capable of it hurts which is why some many speedrunners have cheated they cheat to get a time faster not because they arent capable of getting that time this is the major reason alot of communities have started requiring either live runs for their top players or a video recording with view of the controller
Tbh he made the really poor choice of doubling down and absolutely trashing his friend rather than facing the consequences. Without that awful stream things would have been different
He disappeared because he made a fool out of himself, it wouldn't have worked with someone like that in the community, unless he owned up to what he had done, and maybe started to tell the story of how he ended up cheating himself, so that others didn't make the same mistake. But looks like his ego was to big.
@@phantorang Yeah obviously it was. I am not a huge fan of overboarding apologies, but in this case, a serious one was due. I found it very cowardly that he just disappeared in shame…
This what i love about these small competitive communities. Completely random new player competes with the best of the best and pros in a game but nobody speaks bad of them and actually understands they are good and compliment them...love this community so much
It's not the size of the community, it's the nature of the game. This game is solely based on how good your driving is, and that's the only thing it's based on. I can't interact with you to mess up your lap. I can't pull any cheap tricks or maneuvers to beat you. Games with direct competition, where one players actions influence another player, will always be more competitive and "toxic" than a game where everyone is competing based on skill alone.
I mean from the clips it seems like a lot of them just assumed it was an established player's smurf account, but I agree with you either way. Definitely a wholesome community
never played this game. never seen this channel. never heard of wirtual or any of these guys... watched the whole video glued to the screen... the suspense!
Watched one yesterday and now recommended me this haha. Look up the history of d07 trackmania. It's about the world record time for that track and how progressively over the years times got faster and faster
They knew it was likely a smurf, they just didn't know who it would be. And of course they're going to be kind. It's not a directly PvP game, so there's nothing to get angry at.
I thought they suspect he is cheating BC its so suspicious. No new player should be able to beat that many pros, so it pretty much has to be a smurf account or a hacker.
@@wumwum42 can't really hack in trackmania, especially cup of the day which is a pretty much randomly selected map so really no way you could even have macros or a tool that plays it perfectly for you.
@@Vexi11uM he cheated some of his record (playing in slow-motion, something like 80% speed) you can check you Wirtual's newest video though. I still respect riolu btw
@@mymoomin0952 Bugslides aren't really lucky, its a skill.. Uberbug, nosebug is lucky (well, to get them to go where you want is luck based) but I don't think anyone has done one with any success in a COTD (or pretty much any other tournament exept kacky) You can be unlucky and get a landing bug, but that's pretty rare in the new game.. COTD is in large extremely skill based..
By how Riolu says "whos smurf is that?" I'd have to guess that he isn't the first one to do this and won't be that last It's very hard to just come from nowhere in a game that requires a skill that isn't natural or normal
i never played trackmania or know any of its competitive side. but holy shit i screamed when you missed that risky ending jump. ive never been so invested into something this hard.
These trackmania videos have just suddenly and very randomly popped up on my recommended. Never even knew of this games existence, but I'm not gonna lie I have enjoyed watching them
I have no idea how people play trackmania, it makes me so stressed even just watching. Especially that jump at the end, augh. Very entertaining video, got it randomly recommended to me like a year later, but I enjoyed it thoroughly.
I don’t watch sports, I don’t watch anything competitive, I don’t even know of this game. But here I am standing in my kitchen yelling GO YOU CAN DO IT
youtube put this in my recommended and i love that it did, i've never played trackmania in my life, but i watched this from beginning to end the whole thing and couldn't look away, it's just you're so amazing as a commentator! It's easy to just say what's happening, anyone can do it, but the way you have the knowledge to make it into a gripping story, that way no matter how invested you are into the game, you can be interested by the story of it all is just outstanding. Amazing work, and for sure a new subscriber gained in me, i look forward to more content like this!
So true, Picked it up recently and some tracks this guy makes look so easy I struggle to even complete. Some tracks I feel like I drive really well and I end up barely getting gold and here these guys are like, 5 minutes ahead.
@@SondreGrneng Well, I bet double that they used to be struggling like you in their early days. This kind of skill is the result of them pouring thousands upon thousands of hours worth of effort and hard work to become the professional players they are now, but even this is not the end.
This was the first wirtual video I ever watched and now I’ve watched all of them on this Chanel, witualtv and wirtualVODs. Thought about it again today and rewatched it. Please wirtual I beg you bring back mufat!
I don't know who you are, I didn't even knew that this game existed before this video, none of these names or numbers mean anything to me, and even with that, I get so excited to see the race and was screaming, hoping to see you win. Nice video, man.
Before watching it I already expect something like: "going undiscovered is scary, but gladly, I managed to make it happen" Edit: Could have went with Mufasa, even more epic
Funny watching again this video years later, knowing what happened and seeing exactly the two protagonists of alla the Riolu story being themselves the top 2 and racing for the first place.. By the way still remains one of my fav COTD, and aside everything, what a beast player Riolu was on that cotd.
I love how in track mania, someone 'new' makes it to the top and everyone is a bit confused. But they welcome him. Now try and compare that with chess lol
if some guy somehow rose to the top very quickly in OTB tournaments, there would be less allegations of cheating, at least when compared to some guy going on a rampage from 1500? to 2400 in an online tournament it’s just too easy to cheat online, and the better you already are, the easier it is to cheat
Ah, of course you saw through his Turk disguise immediately! You must know what a Norwegian looks, smells, sounds, tastes, and feels like from last time he beat you!
I just started watching the video and the music caught my attention. The music (at least the very beginning since I haven't watched the whole video yet) is sly cooper themed. It's my favorite series and thought it was cool hearing it somewhere out of no where
Damn, that was an amazing video. I know nothing of this game, the reaction of the pro/streamer is a nice touch. Gave me a little goosebumps in my MofatNuts
Very few player handles are actually people's names, I don't think anybody would question if its even a real word or just a made-up nickname. I guess Mufat just sounds somewhat Turkish to us non-Turks.
You know that nicknames are usually not their real names btw. Some people also change just 1 letter from Their name which is their nickname like it could have been in that case
@@arn5884 "player name", "account name", "nickname", none of those have to be real people's names. Everyone watching this video knows that "Mufat" is just a made-up word, and obviously anyone who knows Turkish can tell immediately that it isn't a real word in Turkish. But to those of us who don't know Turkish it sounds like it could be and we just can't tell otherwise (if we didn't already know better). "Mufat" certainly doesn't sound Norwegian or Spanish for example.
@@arn5884 And he was right, it sounds a bit Turkish, you said it yourself, it's like "Murat", so if it wasn't for one letter, it would be Turkish. That makes it A BIT Turkish.
my biggest takeaway from this was the supportiveness. No one getting mad, hating anyone, competitors were actually impressed and supportive of someone with strong driving skills.
Everyone's busy honing their precision driving skills rather than wasting time being toxic
Stay humble kings
It think it's because this is not a PvP game, you simply compete alone and compare your time, also there's no RNG.
@@azekia Also the community is so insulated that it doesn't attract scriptkiddies so people aren't likely to immediately cry foul when a new guy shows up and does well

They knew it was likely a smurf, they just didn't know who it would be. And of course they're going to be kind. It's not a directly PvP game, so there's nothing to get angry at.
I thought they suspect he is cheating BC its so suspicious. No new player should be able to beat that many pros, so it pretty much has to be a smurf account or a hacker.
@@wumwum42 can't really hack in trackmania, especially cup of the day which is a pretty much randomly selected map so really no way you could even have macros or a tool that plays it perfectly for you.
I Don't even play this game .Got recommended and tbh this was insanely entertaining!
Same bro
Same
I see this type of comment on Trackmania videos disturbingly often
Literally same, I've been subscribed for over a year now
Daily reminder ACAB.
to me this shows how good wirtual really is when he doesn't have to worry about entertaining stream, insane
Crowd in the beginning: "who is
this Mufat?"
Crowd in the end: "Mufat! Mufat! Mufat!"
MUFAT DIK IN YO HANDS.
Oddly reminds me of how Schumacher was a nobody when he first got into F1
Wirtual: GG to riolu 😁
Month later... 😵😷
Its interesting to think about. he had to have been working on the report at that time already given how well reseached it is
Well not necessarily because it could’ve been recorded earlier, and he couldn’t cheat in a live event.
riolu is still a good player.... but the reputation now is just ruined
@@kyrha7394 out of the loop, what did he do to ruin it?
@@Vexi11uM he cheated some of his record (playing in slow-motion, something like 80% speed) you can check you Wirtual's newest video though. I still respect riolu btw
"No luck involved"
*laughs in uberbug, bugslide, landing bug*
Still technically deterministic
If you get a landing bug then you should've tried harder Kappa
These all are entirely deterministic tho.
@@mymoomin0952 Bugslides aren't really lucky, its a skill..
Uberbug, nosebug is lucky (well, to get them to go where you want is luck based) but I don't think anyone has done one with any success in a COTD (or pretty much any other tournament exept kacky)
You can be unlucky and get a landing bug, but that's pretty rare in the new game..
COTD is in large extremely skill based..
do i recognise you
I just wanna say that the fact you put music from Sly Cooper in this video, almost made me shed a few tears :DD
RIP Tony Barker, the real nobody 😔
Not really a nobody actually lmao
@@nekojimTM could possibly be the joke
@@zakwilson9435 idk, he said "the real nobody" bc mufat was wirtual so he maybe think that the only "nobody" is Tony barker
@@nekojimTM who was tony barker?
@@maybeoptify he was 7ven, he is a professional player
Whenever a new guy gets top 10 they're gunna assume it's you now 😂
By how Riolu says "whos smurf is that?" I'd have to guess that he isn't the first one to do this and won't be that last
It's very hard to just come from nowhere in a game that requires a skill that isn't natural or normal
@@iDeLaYeD_o Yeah exactly, these people aren't dumb and they're not new to gaming either. They know what a smurf is.
i never played trackmania or know any of its competitive side. but holy shit i screamed when you missed that risky ending jump. ive never been so invested into something this hard.
Check summoning salt on yt
The sly cooper music makes you GOATED!! Subbed just for that
Would’ve been so epic if Mufat got his first cup of the day win on his first try. He’ll get them next time.
someone in chat said "pull a wirtual"
almost broke the thing there bucko
for those that want timestamps:
- 9:38 at the top of the chat
- 10:24 both "pull a wirtual" and someone talking about mufat
These trackmania videos have just suddenly and very randomly popped up on my recommended. Never even knew of this games existence, but I'm not gonna lie I have enjoyed watching them
I have no idea how people play trackmania, it makes me so stressed even just watching. Especially that jump at the end, augh.
Very entertaining video, got it randomly recommended to me like a year later, but I enjoyed it thoroughly.
I don’t watch sports, I don’t watch anything competitive, I don’t even know of this game. But here I am standing in my kitchen yelling GO YOU CAN DO IT
As a Turk, this made me smile. Btw you almost made a extremely good name decision, not Mufat but Murat is a name in Turkey.
YAŞANIZN IRKIMIZ :D
Or zuhat
@@davidlopes27 wtf is zuhat its not turkish
No one asked
@@evs251 no one care
wirtual : mufat is like a Turkish name
Turkish ppl : less go bois give him some dürüm
Also Granadyy: „he’s Turkish? Yea I kind of guessed that.“
😂
Im Ragunated
I'm turkish Mufat is not a name Murat is a name of turkish peoples mufat doesnt mean anything sorry.
@@Rav3x. that makes sense. but for non-turkish speaking people it sounds like a name that could be turkish.
That 1v1 with riolu hits rather different now.
youtube put this in my recommended and i love that it did, i've never played trackmania in my life, but i watched this from beginning to end the whole thing and couldn't look away, it's just you're so amazing as a commentator! It's easy to just say what's happening, anyone can do it, but the way you have the knowledge to make it into a gripping story, that way no matter how invested you are into the game, you can be interested by the story of it all is just outstanding. Amazing work, and for sure a new subscriber gained in me, i look forward to more content like this!
This game is the epitome of “it’s a lot harder than it looks”
So true, Picked it up recently and some tracks this guy makes look so easy I struggle to even complete. Some tracks I feel like I drive really well and I end up barely getting gold and here these guys are like, 5 minutes ahead.
@@SondreGrneng u can get gold in this game? Never seen this color.
Yeah, top players not only go fast, but they make it look effortless
@@SondreGrneng Espeically the first game . Dude I was confused as hell do times
@@SondreGrneng Well, I bet double that they used to be struggling like you in their early days. This kind of skill is the result of them pouring thousands upon thousands of hours worth of effort and hard work to become the professional players they are now, but even this is not the end.
I have no idea how this got recommended to me, but it has to be one of the most intense videos I’ve ever watched
Me too
i've no idea what sort of videos you two are watching
This was the first wirtual video I ever watched and now I’ve watched all of them on this Chanel, witualtv and wirtualVODs. Thought about it again today and rewatched it. Please wirtual I beg you bring back mufat!
I don't know who you are, I didn't even knew that this game existed before this video, none of these names or numbers mean anything to me, and even with that, I get so excited to see the race and was screaming, hoping to see you win. Nice video, man.
"Whose smurf account is that?"
That was funnier than it should've been
I absolutely love that this dude uses music from Sly Cooper, makes me wanna play the trilogy again
“It would be funny if anyone were to inquire about my identity” a bit elegant for mufat balls
The Turkish name is Murat actually. Mufat can be like if you missed R button on keyboard and pressing F instead...
Pressing F for that ending
I was under the impression it was French
Thanks Olfay
Mjrat
"It's like when someone says 'Whos Joe?' and you just wanna pull the trigger" Wirtual
So... who's joe?
@@thexavier666 joe mama HAH GOTEM
12:23 Riolu called it 🤣
Bro, the fact that its the most intense race ive seen in a while and he still got the elevator music in the background is amazing
"Mufat" had to be blacklisted in riolu's chat today because people wouldn't stop memeing about it lmao
also is that Sly music I hear
Daily reminder ACAB.
"with no luck involved"
Looks at Uber bug
"With next to no luck involved"
uber still requires a lot of skill. normies don't even attempt. It's luck on top of being skilled.
Wait, Uber is possible in trackmania, I thought it got removed
Daily reminder ACAB.
I can't believe he pulled a Wirtual when he wasn't even playing as Wirtual
watching this in 2024 and seeing riolu was a wild throwback
9:38 "Who tf is mufat" someone in chat: "mufat pulled a Wirtual"
Where?
@@saamsaam334 red hightlighted textbox at the top of the chat window
Wow, good eyes lol
Lets just appreciate that Wirtual literally translated French just for this video... Must have been a pain in the ass ahaha Insane work
They are speaking clear this is easy ( at 12:04 he say .74 but this is mistranslated)
He's getting some good help, don't worry about him 😁
He speaks some French
Les réactions françaises sont les meilleurs !
Before watching it I already expect something like: "going undiscovered is scary, but gladly, I managed to make it happen"
Edit: Could have went with Mufasa, even more epic
That name would also work with that last round
What? Mufasa?
Funny watching again this video years later, knowing what happened and seeing exactly the two protagonists of alla the Riolu story being themselves the top 2 and racing for the first place.. By the way still remains one of my fav COTD, and aside everything, what a beast player Riolu was on that cotd.
I waited that whole time for you to enter chat to say "Mufat balls!" but you never did.
I know! And after talking about how pulling the trigger too early would have been a waste....
I've never played trackmania but I've been watching your videos for about 2 weeks and your videos are so good, I really like this game.
I love how in track mania, someone 'new' makes it to the top and everyone is a bit confused. But they welcome him.
Now try and compare that with chess lol
they be like "oh a new person suddenly garnering a lot of rating? must be cheating"
Daily reminder ACAB.
if some guy somehow rose to the top very quickly in OTB tournaments, there would be less allegations of cheating, at least when compared to some guy going on a rampage from 1500? to 2400 in an online tournament
it’s just too easy to cheat online, and the better you already are, the easier it is to cheat
The first trackmania video i've ever watched. Been 2 years already, jeez
I've seen riolus POV of this. Didn't think it was Wirtual.
9:10 As much as I hate losing to a Norwegian, I just had to throw for content.
Thank you for your valiant sacrifice without which this video would not have been possible ;)
Ah, of course you saw through his Turk disguise immediately! You must know what a Norwegian looks, smells, sounds, tastes, and feels like from last time he beat you!
@@siraxolot4262
Indeed
The way you're talking about the whole experience like it was a story just makes all of this so much better
This is amazing, I was so hyped, like this is better than real racing!
As a turkish person there is not word like “Mufat” in turkish but actually, its sounds like turkish.I thank to you to pick Turkey. Thanks! 🇹🇷
@@napslok4363 Harbiden ben de sevindim acaba e sporcu mu geliyor diye
That's what I did !
I went undercovered
*And remained undercovered*
I just started watching the video and the music caught my attention. The music (at least the very beginning since I haven't watched the whole video yet) is sly cooper themed. It's my favorite series and thought it was cool hearing it somewhere out of no where
yeah i was scrolling the comments to see if anyone else noticed
Damn, that was an amazing video.
I know nothing of this game, the reaction of the pro/streamer is a nice touch.
Gave me a little goosebumps in my MofatNuts
I'm Turkish and i have never heard about Mufat but there is a name called Murat.
Very few player handles are actually people's names, I don't think anybody would question if its even a real word or just a made-up nickname. I guess Mufat just sounds somewhat Turkish to us non-Turks.
You know that nicknames are usually not their real names btw. Some people also change just 1 letter from Their name which is their nickname like it could have been in that case
Guys check out 2:07 he says the "name" sound a bit Turkish
@@arn5884 "player name", "account name", "nickname", none of those have to be real people's names. Everyone watching this video knows that "Mufat" is just a made-up word, and obviously anyone who knows Turkish can tell immediately that it isn't a real word in Turkish. But to those of us who don't know Turkish it sounds like it could be and we just can't tell otherwise (if we didn't already know better). "Mufat" certainly doesn't sound Norwegian or Spanish for example.
@@arn5884 And he was right, it sounds a bit Turkish, you said it yourself, it's like "Murat", so if it wasn't for one letter, it would be Turkish. That makes it A BIT Turkish.
Mufat sounds like the Turkish name Murat. You nailed it
I thought it was short for Mustafa. Does not changes the fact that he nailed the nation.
"i have no idea who mufat is but hes strong" LOL
im glad the community is like this, wish it was like this more frequently
and even on stream people were asking if you know that mufat guy, incredible acting skills XD
The Sly Cooper theme at the beginning was perfect
The comment I was looking for!
sams
If not for the ending, they'd have no idea it was actually Wirtual all along.
Man, when you missed that ending jump it made me so sad. Amazing showing though!
