The “Cheater” Who Won RuneScape’s $10,000 Tournament

Показать описание

RuneScape's first Deadman Mode Tournament was a near total disaster. When the tournament concluded, Jagex couldn't decide who won the $10,000 prize! This is the true story.

I don't even play runescape and like watching these scandal/drama/history/lore videos

The final battle was against Jagex's spaghetti coding.

Imagine being ROT and holding down the caves for shilo for over a week. Just to have your whole clan lose to a rando 😂

5:25 - deadman got the fog idea from pubg (which was the popular BR at the time) who got that idea from DayZ - Fortnite WISHES they were the first to come up with BR storm fog 😂

It's crazy to me that fuckin Runescape, a game played by pre-teens and teens in computer classes because it was literally free and could be played in a browser, has so much insane player driven lore.

It honestly kinda makes me wanna play it after.. uh.. man, decades.

Dude of course do a full deadman mode history! If you made 4 hour vids, I’d watch ALL of them! Love your stuff, keep it up man!

Ultima Online did events like this all the time. Dead Man Mode was basically the default mode at the game's release (they too would tweak it into less and less PVP over time.) For Christmas they'd release a Free-For-All server called Santa's Slay where people would spawn in as Santas, Elves or Reindeers and battle it out. It was hilarious. No $10k prize tho. There are lots of other examples like the Abyss server with epic faction vs. faction where 6 different factions battled over control of castles producing free resources. Lots of alliances forming and a 7th faction emerging that rejected these factions and targeted everyone. Runescape's creator was a UO player during this time.

This video reminded me of woox winning dmm and getting screwed. You should make a video of all of wooxs accomplishments. First corp solo, deadman winner, king of the skill winner, first infernal cape, 2nd quiver (he technically got it in less playtime, as he went to bed way before khazard got it), first inferno without using non stackable supplies, 1 pray pt jad, killing corp with potatoes, first nex duo and solo. He is the goat of RuneScape as a part time player

Deadman over the years has been quite the rollercoaster😆

Oh boy another video about a game I never played in my life. I am literally watching this whole thing keep it up 😂😂

not to be that guy, but that's not really what a tick eat is. ( 11:37 ) the idea is that the damage is calculated when the projectile is fired, so if you're on 1hp most monsters can only hit you for a 1 (there's exceptions and you cant conventionally tick eat all monsters) and then you eat before you take that predetermined damage you're eating a food. there isn't ever "one game tick where you're both technically dead and alive". this fog was coded in a similar way to common projectiles, so it'd calculate its damage based on your current hp on one game tick and then would damage you the tick after, what they've done to fix that since is allow the fog to hit over your max hp and also constantly check to see if your character is stalled

Actually unless I'm mistaken, tick eating works because damage is calculated before it's actually applied, and there's no overkill in this game. If you only have 1 hp, then an attack can only hit you for 1 damage, so if you eat after the damage is calculated but before it's applied, your hp will go up but you'll still only take 1 damage. That's why you can't tick eat at full hp unless you eat something that increases your max hp.

Gotta love how jagex's mistakes makes you a cheater 😂
