That vertical grip bushwack was such a lucky get

[@dth99times]

Followed by a matching grip bushwack, rng gods blessed the run a bit

[@GrandDawggy]

Anytime i hear a runner with a nickname thats just a shortened version of their screen name i allways think "save the syllables to save a few frames IRL"
I wonder how much speedruners find themselves saving frames or doing skips IRL

[@AGrumpyPanda]

I was a very casual Monster Hunter speedrunner for a few months, I stopped when I realised I was subconsciously trying to noclip through my front door when I went for a walk.

[@znxster]

BL is a staple of GDQ. Over the years its been run .. it has been incredible fun to watch. zzrules on point with the commentary as well.

[@Mimikium778]

outside of the purple shotgun from No Hard Feelings, but whos keeping track?

[@zzrules21]

@@Mimikium778 Hey if you squint really really hard (maybe close your eyes too) then you too can get a purple shotgun from No Hard Feelings
But nah, Utsu corrected me about it and you can visibly see my confusion as to why she said blue because it didn't even register to me that I said purple instead of blue whoops

[@blueshellking5327]

zzrules21 was a great commentator during this run. He explained everything very well.

[@RagedmeeksGaming]

These two runners are like the epitome of dude friends. Zero verbal communication between them but the flawless execution.

[@angriestjoker]

Man seeing the dupe and swap gun glitches really takes me back to the early days of this game, you two nailed this run!

[@TheNerdySimulation]

Always a great time seeing BL2 at GDQ and seeing how the run has evolved since early Bahroo/Broman days! One of the best communities I am more than happy to be part of, having even gotten me through some of the toughest times in my life and helping me come out as trans! Deceptix and Unjust killed this run with some of the best commentary from ZZRules and Utsu

[@Ishsa]

It really is crazy how much staying power this game and this run have had. It's awesome thinking back to all the new breaks we've found and the gdq runs that showcased them. My dream is to see 4 player 1-op10 some day, but I love seeing everything.

[@EnderDragon]

I just finished Borderlands 2 as they were doing this run. Been going back through the series, this was so much fun to watch. Axton zooming at Sonic speeds is crazy.

[@mikeg0007]

I love speedrunners that incorporate crazy tech like foot mouse wheel. Freaking cool stuff

[@Noobwater]

Great Game, Great Run, Great Runners. love to see it

[@Smoth48]

Some of claptraps dialog is the best comedy in the world, hands down. Between "STAIRS?!?! NOOOOO" and his response to the gates reinforcements depleting of "Don't worry baby, happens to a lot of girls"

[@optic_docka2747]

that double cutscene skip was unbelievably smooth

[@vulc1337]

"Alright, sounds good!"

[@superkaboose1066]

That was nuts

[@purplegalaxy7336]

42:00 when they mentioned that a skip was found at a sgdq it was a 4 man coop run where the Aston was messing around had a thought and ended jumping the bridge and using the fast travel it was huge for its time lol

[@TeenoGames]

the cutscene at 53:59 only rumbles one player's screen and that bothers me

[@Noobwater]

okay

[@WillFuI]

Kinda upset I slept through this

[@spencermikel6054]

I turn these on before bed but now that you said this

[@Bronxbug]

GG

[@measlyfurball37]

Seeing Axton run like fucking Sonic the hedgehog sent me. What an excellent run!

[@Nicholas_Steel]

There's one thing I hate in every Borderlands game, using the Scroll Wheel to change weapons doesn't consistently work. The order it scrolls through weapon slots changes as you change what weapons are equipped...

[@draconiannightmare9912]

Why does he wait for the gate and not run up the slanted part on the way to the warrior? (1:16:00 ish)

[@Artur_Stoll]

Quest will not update before claptrap says Noooooo. Otherwise you`ll must return from Warrior`s path to trigger him through the door.

[@malcomhater]

Did he had a mouse under the table?

[@aaallliiikkk123]

Nice run! :D
Do you need old version for this glitchis ?

[@saviolbnful]

a lot of them, but things like the doubleshot/drop reload still works on the most recent version

[@unjustaction]

yes, this run was done on version 1.1.0 which came out about a month after release

[@JustinSaneTube]

2 and a half gamers!

[@ZOUKAHH]

watching this makes me realize just how broken this game is haha

[@davidcarey6923]

Is this run current patch?

[@bonez994]

It's on patch 1.1.0, which is said within the first 2 minutes of the video

[@saoirs_eh]

Rewatch the literal first minute of the video

[@unjustaction]

No, this is ran on version 1.1.0 which came out about a month after release.

[@ambivalence.studio]

Crazy how good these two are! Congrats on a great and entertaining run!
