OH NO! yea. he is great. even that i never saw him doing a run, he is one of those i aleways look for if i want an both entertainment and interresting run.
he ran goof troop, shadow of the ninja, and ninja five-o in past events. the stuff blechy is a part of usually ends up being a highlight of the marathon, like this and pj's actraiser 2 run. he's more professional than most too, you can see his phone lit up on the couch arm, he has notes that he checks during runs so there's always something good to talk about
Awww, I was rooting for Kosmic and weird underdog strats, but I can't say I'm disappointed with the results. Also, huge appreciation for Blechy's always-stellar commentary. This is AGDQ at its finest.
That commentator knows his shit, I understand some things so much better now, not only about this run, but about runs in general. Thank you, commentator!
32:03 can someone plz explain what the "oh no" is about? i've played it like 10x and don't understand what i'm missing here. no one gets fireworks, no one gets hit (somehow) and no one dies... what am i missing?
I remembering watching the run live at 33:10 and seeing Blechy's "pew" blow up the chat. "GET IN THE BAG" spam everywhere. Overall amazing commentator for the run.
Mario was the very first game for me on Nintendo when I was about 6 or 7 and it's so much a classic, if I see a video about it every now and then, my mouth is starting to grow all around my head, I grin that wide if you know what I mean. I just loved these runs, big up for the guys!
Rob Castillo's SP Adveture it's 4 frames, a framerule is 21. A time better than that has been humanly possible for a year and a half now, there's no discovering needed.
So I beat Tyson today about 5 times in an hours worth of play that I haven't played in 15 years or more. My D-pad thumb is getting a callus and is sore as hell. These speed runners have to suffer from this.
crouching while underwater and swimming doesn't change your sprite but it makes it so your hitbox is only the one of small mario, so half his sprite can't be affected by enemies.
Andrew (bottom left) did a jump crouch just in time to avoid being touched and crowd went "OOOHH", blechy thought something went bad and said "Oh no" first then tried to look on which screen it happened but could not see what was wrong haha
26:17 you can see darbian smiling because the commentator used his bus analogy for the frame rule.
Conker Juega yeah I noticed that too
He was beaming
Kosmicd12 smirks and nod, while andrewg1990 just smirks.
How fucking cute, man
Commentator: IMAGINE A BUS...
Darbian:Oh shit,there we go again!!
I can't believe there isn't a more high tech way to start the game than having Darbian press start on all three controllers at the same time lol
Fantastic commentary, really helps you appreciate the run fully.
Oh why hello. Fancy seeing you here. I agree. That guy knows his stuff and was super enthusiastic!
Ha hey there buddy :) I didn't know you were a GDQ fan.
Sam Krygsheld ohhhhhh ya. Started back in Jan 2015
That's nice, man.
at 26:20, i love how darbian chuckles to himself when the commentator uses his analogy for frame rules
"Can we hear what Darbian's time was?"
*video ends*
Yes, his time was
Kosmic's small mario run is crazy!
26:13
Darbian is laughing his ass off while the commentator is explaining the frame rule with Darbians explanation. lol
Love the commentary just like last year. By far my favorite couch purely for the information.
10/10 best fucking commentator.
I watch AGDQ interviews just to hear his voice.
I don't know if he makes a living out of that, but he should. He's freaking awesome
OH NO!
yea. he is great. even that i never saw him doing a run, he is one of those i aleways look for if i want an both entertainment and interresting run.

oh. ohh. oki, i ganna watch that :D thx

Great run guys congrats darbian , kosmic and andrewg for great run
Great runs, great commentary.
26:10 Darb cracking up about his own bus analogy being used.
32:03 can someone plz explain what the "oh no" is about? i've played it like 10x and don't understand what i'm missing here. no one gets fireworks, no one gets hit (somehow) and no one dies... what am i missing?
something about darbians screen i think. It did look like his game lagged
I think darbian missed the framerule and lost some time
"Oh no!" Always laughed when he said it. Great commentary and very informative.
Great commentary once again this year's SMB runs.
This race was intense! Glad I got to see it live :)
I remembering watching the run live at 33:10 and seeing Blechy's "pew" blow up the chat. "GET IN THE BAG" spam everywhere.
Overall amazing commentator for the run.
Man, I come back to this video sometimes and it hits me what a legendary couch set of people are running + on the couch.
26:17 did this guy watch Darbian's tutorial?
Lol
Summoning salt talked about it too
Mario was the very first game for me on Nintendo when I was about 6 or 7 and it's so much a classic, if I see a video about it every now and then, my mouth is starting to grow all around my head, I grin that wide if you know what I mean. I just loved these runs, big up for the guys!
The best 2017 run I've watched so far. Great commentary too.
Is it just me or is it blinking black every here and there?
its blinking
i think this is the moment when they resync the stream
Really great commentary
I'm really impressed with the announcer. That was an awesome job!
This guy for permanent announcer.
Here for darbian 👍🏻💯👍🏻😎
This is so entertaining and the commentary is absolute gold!!
Amazing commentator!! He had topics prepared to talk about to keep things fresh! Very good!
So much effort put into the commenting, it's good quality
Outstanding runs made even better with outstanding commentary.
This announcer is great!
the most impressive part of this video is the handshakes at the end weren't awkward
So much fun, one of the best runs of the event so far. BASED DARB
My 3 heroes 💪
That was an insanely tight race. These guys are incredible.
Shout out to AndrewG being a good sport about it
Super Mario Bros.
Mario Bros. is a different game.
I'd absolutely love to hear this guy commentate a Sunshine or Mario 64 race. He's amazing.
The 3 angels of 2D Mario.
damn that commentary is spot on, awesome
Didn't know a lot of the strats the commentator spoke about. Great job!
Andrew's motions about mario's death were so dynamic. I know that feeling :)
The commentator wraps it up like a Rick and Morty improv.
Anyone know what he was reacting to at 32:00? I sure don't.
blechy is legend
How does one even go up against Darbian? Seriously? It's like going to the Olympics knowing you're going up against Usain Bolt.
no, all its just that darbian gets good times all the time(very consistent) and the other guys get really good times but seldom.
ilySmokeyBloons KOTH well now kosmic has most of the wrs now
Kosmic holds wr
Only for a frame rule, it's not much time 'til someone else (cough darbian cough) discovers how to beat that.
Rob Castillo's SP Adveture it's 4 frames, a framerule is 21. A time better than that has been humanly possible for a year and a half now, there's no discovering needed.
4:52 Timmy grown up
Estimate 35:00
Darbian is at 8-4 in 18:30
Bad estimate
The bloodbath begins at 34:52
32:04 what happened?
lol at the guys rocking to underwater level music in the background :D
Why did they say "Oh no" at 32:08? I don't see anything going wrong there.
This was the day when Kosmic started Training very hard😂
Darbian is legend.
racing with darb in SMB is like racing with usain bolt on a 100meter dash
AngryChinaMan kosmic's the king now
So I beat Tyson today about 5 times in an hours worth of play that I haven't played in 15 years or more. My D-pad thumb is getting a callus and is sore as hell. These speed runners have to suffer from this.
kosmic finished at 2017...
darbian unstoppable from the first frame
darbian had Windows 7, KosmicD12 had Windows 8.1, and AndrewG had Windows XP!
That dude is def an alien in disguise.
darbian is untouchable
Maze castles you can actually get through based on how many times you jumped
smol brain: *commenting on TH-cam*
big brain: 4:48
kosmicd12 probably regrets going small mario and dying 3 times.
Man that was cool as hell. Darbs is the shit.
wait, this was in Herndon VA? I live in Herndon!
Darbian is the king
oooo ma boi darbian did a run!
35:58 Darbian goes through an enemy? Not only here but in his world record runs he touches enemies without consequences.
crouching while underwater and swimming doesn't change your sprite but it makes it so your hitbox is only the one of small mario, so half his sprite can't be affected by enemies.
32:05 - Can someone explain to me what happened here?
DarkSamus297 andrew was almost hit but the crouch saved his life :)
Doesn't start till 20:09
Wtf
32:06 What was that "Oh no" for?
Andrew (bottom left) did a jump crouch just in time to avoid being touched and crowd went "OOOHH", blechy thought something went bad and said "Oh no" first then tried to look on which screen it happened but could not see what was wrong haha
darb schooling these kids
Darbian kicks ass!!!
i clicked for the heas in the thumbnail why is that guy's brain so large
21:20 When no one gets the flagpull glitch...
*pole
Darbian won because he was using......THE BONE.
Darbs is a machine!
Darbian is the smb wizard
If I hear the bus analogy one more time in a SMB video...
somewes: *Am I really exist ?*
That frame rule explanation
This commentator was fucking amazing. I want more people like this.
My boy Darbian though
where is the warp run a.k.a. the part 66??
I want to talk about....
Kosmic > anyone
Is this done on on the original console or an emulator??
i want to have all of darbian's babies
sin wave ehhhh wtf...?
*concern*
Can someone explain the money? Is that a purse that's divided up amongst players?
LeeRoy Dundlehay It’s money raised for the prevent cancer charity if you didn’t find out by now.
Why didn't they introduce andrewg lol
35:45
Is it safe to assume that darbian is the best smb1 runner at the moment?
More proof darbian is the master
LordofSalt kosmic has the records now
Tyrian Couchcaster...
👏👏👏👏👏
music at 18:57?
Guy Lloyd super mario rpg
why they play normal and they play better when stream
That’s because there’s less pressure, and a lot of the times you only see the good runs, not the thousands of fails.
