I remember watching the benex 16:XX choke live and thinking THAT was the peak the category could get to insane what's happened since then, great video man :)
I remember when Korbanoes got the sub 15 run and people thought that was the end of minecraft speedrun. Currently there are at least 100 sub 15 runs on the leaderboard. Crazy how things has changed
I've wanted Summoning Salt to cover minecraft for a while, but I'm actually really happy that someone with so much experience is covering it, just like how Summoning Salt holds a WR or previous WR of some of the games he covers. Much love ❤️
Illumina using his massive brain to get the first sub 14 with no F3 and with some of the worst blind travel possible in a speedrunning environment that had widely accepted F3 as being necessary for WR is just insane, and probably my favorite moment in the story of Minecraft speedrunning (though I may be biased, as a long time Illumina enjoyer.) Illumina is, in my opinion, the best speedrunner to ever touch the game. You cannot discuss Minecraft speedrunning, in any version and nearly any category, without discussing Illumina, and that stands as a testament to his impact on the game.
@@godlike3605 Crookst best 1.16 runner that's true but he doesn't run other versions only 1.16 rsg if you really want to say a runner is the best overall combined RSG can show a runner overall skills and the n1 on that list is cube doesn't mean he is the best runner in each category but he is the best overall as he has top times in the 3 main categories
2 months later and Brentilda's unbeatable record has been broken! Cube's run is nothing but deserved, insanely well played on a good but not great seed for the time he got!
Pika, u are prob the most underrated person on yt it’s incredible to watch u grow and u deserve 1 million subs imagine having the patience to make a video that’s this long anyway
As a video editor and MCSR fan, I am in awe of this video. It is as informative as entertaining. The amount of b roll you put into this video is really impressive. Clap
Ikr when I saw the name of video and heard the music I was damn they jocking summoning salt. Then i saw the inspired by and I was like yeah rock on brother
The production on this video is insane! It’s always so interesting to learn the history of this speedrun category and how new ideas were able to push the record into new heights.
So glad this video is getting the recognition it deserves. I remember 1 month after it was posted, and was among the least viewed videos in Pika's channel, but now its almost at 500k. You deserve so much man, the mcsr youtuber that the community wants and needs. Thank you for your work.
Dude, your use of buzz words is exquisite. “What happened next changed Minecraft forever” Shit dude! What happened? I’m hooked. Literally you could be giving me the history of shrimp and I’d be locked in. Dynamic as fuck. We’ll paced. Love it. I can’t believe I watched this for a whole hour
Man reminiscing on February 2021 was such a wild time, I think that's really when I started to get invested into mc speedrunning. Awesome video, super enjoyable

@@hellatze there was no rules on pausing at that time and also he had to see divine travel cords as he didn't have chat spamming it and most of the time he was pausing to calm himself its not like he was pause abusing and somehow progressing
Insanely well made video. Goes into detail, and kept me entertained the whole time, didnt even realise it was an hour long, felt like 20 minutes. Awesome job man!
Dude I just realized I’m in this at 47:05 crazy to think that I was part of the community for so much of this stuff and watched it grow to where it is today. Good times man, good times.
It still baffles me that the 14:36 stayed for so long, as it was the first run to use bastion strats. I also still remember waking up to the Korb run, and I did a double take at the thumbnail, with the big 14:56 in big font. It was a crazy day.
This video is truly amazing, keep up the good work. I was able to sit here for the full hour and I have a pretty short attention span, so you're really doing something right here.
Finally,I was about to ask you on your next video when the history of minecraft speedrunning was gonna come(Like you promised in one of your first videos), I guess I don't have to now
i swear for the past month ive been seeing your content, I thought you were at a million or something. when i saw the actual one, I thought thsi was a fake channel of you, then i realized it is you. Hope you get to 1mill soon! Ill stay subbed for it!
this is the optima of ABSULUTLY CRACKED EDITING SKILLS like bro idk how u had that much time but what i do know is that you are a true utter legend for putting so much effort in to a video just for entertainment (ik you want to get the things u want like ye tha thinga ya want but ur still a god)
your content is so fucking amazing. thank you for constantly outputting such high-quality videos for us! you deserve so much more and success is in the near future for you. your grind is admirable.
Im so happy to see you get recognition now lets go!! Also that's kinda funny cause i know you from a while ago when you played a lot of RL and were a top ground player :)
The fact that Brentilda's run wasn't beaten until January of this year nearly 9 months later, is a testament to how much of an achievement that was. I can't wait to see sub 9 runs in 2025!
"In this video, I go through the progression of the Minecraft 1.16 RSG world record" so basically, a few classic world records, then couri accidentally invents hypermodern and gets wr, then people grind the category for a few months until the wr gets so optimized that you can literally count the number of times runners have been on pace to beat it on your fingers lol edit: this was commented before the video was premiered and I didn't know that anyone was actually working on hypermodern strats before couri's wr, sorry abt that
Couri did “accidentally” do hypermodern but he didn’t invent anything. Was already known at the time he just got a lot luckier than others when the meta wasn’t very refined.
Best video I have ever seen on Minecraft speed running. Please make a video on tips for speed running and breaking down speedruns because I rly want to start
Pikaj i think you should do one video on the new strats that are emerging now, with Brentilda wr standing for so long a lot of people are starting to get lost on the new strats that speed runners are using
That's a bit hard. Cuz brentilda just reked everyone. It is soo difficult that all the new strats like 0 cycle and maples is seeming useless. And I think the category might die. I mean 8 minutes, it is absurd
It is possible to break brentildas run, but the category will die soon. No one wants to watch people endlessly reset and prayge for ssg seed or 12 eye/precut end portal
Imagine a run with the perfect world (so no steep hills he has to climb and stuff), and the perfect luck, and all small optimizations, along with a clean zero cycle. Such run would be sub 7 :0
thanks for this video it was real cool, loved it and learnt a few things (i already knew a lot because i'm interested in this since 1.9 lol) have a good one ^^
I've seen sooooo many Summoning Salt inspired videos. They are mostly not worth watching. This on the other hand. I watched every single second and subbed!
