Toad is such a legend
Yoo it's fir
I was there live on your channel and this toad spot was legendary

ikr
yep
Future CJ having a mental breakdown over the footage of everyone just having fun playing the game is gold
sounds like a serious problem

it makes me kinda sad for him :(
Such a drama queen. It's not always about winning or losing.
hide and seek logic:
you get found instantly in the most obscure and top tier spot
you last ages in one spot by barely crouching behind a toad
Or smant just talking to Koopa in the open. A Classic
But the dumb spot only works if it's a panic spot. If you try to deliberately exploit this phenomenon, you'll be found in seconds.
The best part is the Toad spot was not intentional. Fir went into the castle without thinking and hid there as a panic option. The video doesn't convey it super well, but watching the stream from his perspective, seeing literally every seeker come and go, was top tier content.
Toad is the new meta.
Don't underestimate the power of hiding in plain sight
Watching Crafty slowly get better and better at Odyssey while playing hide and seek has been so cool
Crafty is best boy. I always root for him.
He’s a double threat now
Literal Character development moment
Crafty is the MVP
He got mars, fir, and smant, I'm honestly proud of him
Cj: practicing and researching spots to hide
Fir: literally just sits next to a toad
the chaddest spot
Technician vs Performer
CJ: Finds the most clever hiding spots with escape plans
Fir: Haha Toad

tips for doing camouflage: 1st, never try to split colour palates, always commit to one colour. when you split 2 different colour camos, one colour will always be more visible in your environment, making you stick out. 2nd, dull colors rein supreme, anything vibrant or bright (like a white helmet) will catch peoples eye. generally, find colour options that don't have much saturation, as those tend to blend in best with surroundings. though i guess with mario odyssey, that might be kind of difficult. finally, the best spots for camouflage are areas with a lot of noise. anywhere with lots of objects, or even just a lot of other colours, will help obscure you. just remember, if something can catch your eye, it will also catch the eye anyone whos looking for you.
whelp, there's your camouflage tips, personally id say replace the helmet for something either green or grey. however, knowing how mario odyssey does feature a lot of areas with white colour palates, it might not be a bad idea to instead swap the overalls for something like the skeleton suit, or wedding dress, as either will benefit in the snow or moon kingdoms, however that will also play to your detriment pretty much everywhere else. so generally just pick a single colour, and hope you don't get unlucky with the kingdom.
Only thing though with odyssey is when inside objects like the tree or behind a chest it makes a somewhat dull silhouette of Mario appear (which tbh surprised the mod if it is one. Doesnt remove this thus making hide and seek actually possible since the whole somehow weird cray theougg physical objects thing the game has)
Made 69 :D
Yeah the helm really made him super obvious
What about lunchon That Place is VIBRANT AND BRIGHT AS HECK WITH MULTIPLE DIFFERENT COLORS
@@loren6102 in that kingdom not having vibrant colors makes it even better
They should have a new speedrun category that is just called sweat% and the sole submission is just this video
Lol
This is like if David Attenborough was narrating his hide-and-seek strats
Haha funny
So, In Wooded Kingdom. You Can See The Wild Small Ant Hiding Behind A Tree.
@@SlinkSuperior99 Here, you see the SmallAnt in his natural state. He ponders of what to do. Start chaos and then leave, or slice everyone's head off with a hat. Looks like he chose the chaos. *insert the most epic chase scene ever*

i did notice while watching this stream live (from smant's pov) that you did seem a bit saltier than usual, so im glad you realize that having fun with the game rather than sweating for a win is more fun for you
Do or do not, there’s no try

Lucky I did not play this week..
Cj: methodically finding genius spots and escape routes.
Fir: toad
Poobear: bush
I think the hide and seek rounds very much profit from spontaneity.
I've seen the others try to use planned spots as well during the streams and they usually fail and/or are not as funny as wacky panic spots and I often find myself rooting for the person with the dumbest one, like Fir behind the Toad
These hide and seek videos are always an instant click. Keep em' coming CJ! We love these!
It's super aggravating to put a lot of effort into improving a competitive skill and then have your chances of doing well when it counts ruined by forces outside of your control (e.g. lag and other people exposing your hiding spot). I really relate to your frustration! I hope you get a round of better luck next time, CJ.
People say that it's all about having fun, and I agree, but the guy wanted to try for real this time, and it's really crushing that you spend hours looking for spots just for them to be ruined so fast (Smant spoiling his hide, the 5-second rule not working, he falling at the wrong time...), still, it's not the end of the world, but anyone could relate to the feeling :P
I feel like this video just proves that any plans you have will somehow be ruined by Smants and Firs chaotic energy.
moral of the story:
Hide in spots so awful that nobody will think you're stupid enough to go there.
who's that lag guy and why does he ruin everything
Based mars comment
Everyone always asks who is lag but not how is lag 😭
Lag generally does fine considering it can be found in many games, maybe all games
Stop playing with these people. I hate hearing your voice. You are a MAN
@@ninjabobbob8090 Jesus what the fuck dude, their friend group is about them and their friends, not you. You certainly don't need to go harass them in the youtube comments
This was hilarious. Can’t believe Fir got 47 minutes this round, what an absolute legend
It would be fun to have a round with 7 seekers and 1 hider- wearing the invisibility hat!
Yoo
no, no it wouldn’t
_"He's too dangerous to be kept alive!"_
(I want to see that too! But reverse the numbers and make the seekers invisible)
@@TheNico2000 it would
I cannot envision a way where this would work. They could literally stand out in the open, put the controller down, and still never be found if none of the seekers managed to randomly bump into them. Instead of hide and seek, it'd turn into a game of "let's all walk in a straight line so that we can hope to find them." Just imagine this in Sand Kingdom. And even if they weren't allowed to move after they got situated in their hiding spot, we're still looking at potential hours of just walking over literally every pixel of ground, right?
I know you can see the shadow of someone wearing the invisibility hat, but in some areas, like some spots in Wooded Kingdom, you might only be barely able to see it, if at all. I could see seven people chasing a shadow in the sand being fun, but the hide and seek portion of that wouldn't be very interesting, imo.
*Picks "optimal" costume
Invisible cap: "Pathetic."
Crafty really is just built different when he hides in Metro, huh?
I love this style, like, narrating everything, is pretty cool
Have you guys thought of doing sardines? One person hides while everyone else seeks. If you find the hider you hide with them
The thing I find the most funny is that in the beginning when you talked about how Fir and Smallant often win these, I thought to myself, would be really funny if he got third behind smallant and fir.
I don't know how cj (and his editors) do it, but i always watch the whole vod of a stream (i am interested in) and ALSO the video.
Like its the same content, but somehow entertaining two times in two different ways, so good job guys!
9:30 Mars : "That's not possible, that's not possible!"
Trickjumpers : "Imagine"
it was proven lol
Thats VCR yeah
@@kali_kali_kali_ yeah ik lol. i been grinding it for months now
@@themelodicblue yeah i know you lmao i never got an elite and retired since ages but remember your twitter yeah. gl on the grind
I love that Fir canceled on the little water geyser, it’s a fun reference when Smant hid in there in one hide n seek video
Also oh god I guess I accidentally came out as an enby to my family
That's awesome
It’s always nice to watch CJ’s hide and seek
omg it's been 9 months!?!?! that's insane, i've loved watching hide and seek all this time
Luck is a big part of it. However, you aren't willing to do whatever it takes to win. Like, you aren't willing to sell out everyone else like Smant is. Smant will literally look for people while hiding so he can find them quicker later, and so he can sell them out in a chase. If you aren't willing to be cut throat, and you're just trying to have fun, you're not going to win as much, and I think we both agree that's probably a fair trade.
i used to think CJ was the villain, but now i realize Fir has made him the villain
Fir wins so many times already, I don't know if he is too skilled or just too luck, maybe both.
Fir is just built different
Mannn that was such a well made video!! A nice change of pace but sad to hear it wasn't as fun!! Excited to see what you come out with next!!
cjya's anti-villain arc started when he said "im sick of it"
I actually remember watching this game video.
I was wondering why CJ seemed kinda grumpy as the rounds went on. Now I know why lol
whether it be competitive or for fun, everything is much more fun when you don't take it seriously and just do it for the hell of it
I love how different smallants and cjs voices are when they’re narrating their own videos
this video is giving me fir vibes. like, the one video where fir was recording the 4 player for his channel and ended up getting 3rd (I think??) anyone else getting the feeling?
that's literally exactly what I thought when cj started narrating at the beginning
Another Hide and Seek video! These fuel my will to live and am so happy to see another!
CJ is really good at commentating in my opinion, how he described things is like a story. Great work!
That feeling when you put everything you have into it, only to fall short, again and again... > <
The ending, with the music, after it happened, while everyone is enjoying the game: i felt that(and relate to it way too easily)
I remember watching the first hide and seek video, then y'all just kept going with these videos. These are really entertaining and I happy y'all kept doing these videos
loved this video and the stream it was based on. It's always cool seeing everyone else's perspective in the editted version
Did anyone else notice the coins made a little smile at 10:40
Lol
Crafty just created a new genre of TH-cam videos, and I love it!
I love your videos, the commentating and content is always so fun, thanks for being an awesome content creator CJ
Love The vids man keep it up🔥
This series never gets old

Hide and Seek is a fun game because of how the mechanics interact to create spontaneous experiences. Good hunters will know where most good spots are and tend to check those first. Everyone has a plan, but often those plans intersect. Hiders can have the same idea of where to hide. Hiders could be running away from a seeker right into another random seeker who wasn't chasing them. Hiders while running could lead the seeker into another hider on accident or on purpose.
It's a game designed to have no optimal strategy, so the correct way is to play low-stakes and lax.
this is so fun cj!!! thanks for making my day. i love your content !
SMO Hide and Seek is a game played with 4 to 9 people and in the end, Fir wins.
CJ: So this kingdom has my favorite hiding spot.
Also CJ: So I got found.
Also also CJ: But this other kingdom is one of my favorite for hiding.
Also also also CJ: And then I died.
Also also also also CJ: But this other other kingdom, however, surely has one of the best hiding spots.
Smallant: Hey CJ, nice spot!
To be fair, Smant likes to pick birdwatcher spots where he can see people.. and typically is a bit over confident in his ability to escape. The guy pretty much plays to meme and very rarely has tryhard moments with the goal to win.
And it's always hilarious and Smant does a top-tier job of making H&S funny. It's so much funnier to watch someone with a bird's eye perspective than to be stuck in a wall
the fact you were able to talk about hide n seek this dramatically still has me
I love these hide n seek vids keep it up 👌
I really enjoyed this 💪🏽 . Your last death I seen the sadness 😂😂
Always love the Mario Odyssey hide and seek vids ❤
21:51 Can I just say that was satisfying to watch? Smant always usually gets away in that forest with Crafty right behind him. That was the first time Crafty actually caught him.
Great video! Btw, that jump mars tried in Metro to escape is possible, however, it's considered the third hardest vault jump in the game called vault city reacher
Yeah I like the idea, but I also think that just having fun with the game makes for way better content too
hide and seek was literally what brought me to your channel lol
I actually think the chase and the other hiders being able to call out your location for their times makes the game deeper.
You not only need to think about an escape plan to another hiding space.
You need to consider how other hiders will respond to you if they see you. And plan for their reactions
Smant: "Mars tried an impossible jump!"
Also Smant: *Completes the same jump flawlessly*
You tried so hard, and got so far, but in the end, you learned a lesson. Wait, that's not how it's supposed to go!
Honestly it seems like just being able to run and lose people is the better skill to have than having a good hiding spot
6:07. Small ant. Big Brain
Smant’s time: 39:18.
CJ: “Smallant had 30 minutes” 😂
Best strat: run in and out of a sub area repeatedly. Become invincible.
A white head and green-blue color is legit a real way animals use camouflage to blend in. Sharks are blue above to blend in with the surface water when seen from the air, and white below to hide with the sunlight when seen under them. It's really cool.
"I searched for hours for the best spot" hides in a random ass corner in luncheon visible to everyone
"one of his favorite spots" very clear white spot on top of a tree
Cjya u r an AMAZING mario oddissy ytuber and i wish the best for u
There should be a Prop Hunt mode where the hiders get to use captures as hiding spots
I've been binging these videos for a while now, and my favorite part is everyone having fun. You, specifically, CJ, are the BEST to watch because you get so into the moment with your whole heart. I'm having a great time, thanks for making these videos!
We need more of these
CJ: I didn't lab lag
Fighting Games Veterans: First time?
mario odyssey has rollback
CJs writing is just getting better
The "gamers don't look up" meme is becoming more and more true by the day
Smant was so BM in luncheon i love it lmao
ITS BACK BABY OOH THATS WHAT WE BEEN WAITING FOR WOOOH
ur a legend cj
This video actually really got me invested in wanting to see CJ win
Find someone who loves you as much as Crafty loves dying in the Mushroom Kingdom 2-D autoscroller
CJ, For Metro, you can jump onto the tables under the umbrellas at the rooftop cafe.
10:42 Coins being in a smiley face shape is so ironic
i love how fir is just so calm the entire time
The true hide n seek master
CJ playing: 🤣
CJ voice-over: 👹
Was kinda sad when CJ fell down and died in wooded. You'll get them next time champ! Winner in my heart
10:40 love the accidental =) from the death coins
I don't think you were having fun here. Just enjoy yourself and who cares if you win or not! You win if you have fun!
These stories attract me more every day
Ok but smant's strat was genius. Pick a high place so you can see where everyone is and then just sell everyone out to escape. Honestly I love it
Good job cj!
It's always the stupid spots that work well. I really liked your mushroom spot though!
You had me so invested in your victory.
Shame to hear you won't actively try for it again
How does this video format not get old nor boring
The spots keep getting better and better!
fr this time
Tells crafty to not wait outside, fir gets away because of it.
Next sub area “ Crafty wait outside.. “ all pissy as if it was crafty who fucked up last time lol
I'm looking at this for the first time. One trick I found in Odyssey is a glitch that brings you to glitch into a building. You have to roll so many times for it to work. It's in this one spot in a crack behind a vent system and the building wall.
They should do SMO Manhunt… it would be legendary
