Thanks for Watching :)

Upon finishing off this video, Lep has finally beaten his time with a 31:52! These two runs are close to identical so fortunately the video is still 99% accurate.

Huge congrats to Lep for this achievement!

As a hollow knight player/speedrunner, I admire that you said “Mantis claw is ALMOST required”.

[Mister_Clean]

Love how precise this run is. Calculating everything down to the single geo really says a lot about the skill level required to even attempt any%

“And promptly kills it in 1 second”

Me who died to it twice: ☹️

I've only finished the game once and have very little knowledge about speedrunning, but your editing and narrating made it simple to understand and enjoyable to watch 10/10

[ThePCguy]

Are we going to talk about the fact that the two runner-ups are Lepfan and Lepfoe?

[GrayAvian]

I misread the title as "30 seconds" and almost shit myself from fear

[cryolitegem]

It’s speedrunners that got me into the game in the first place. And here I am years later, learning their routes, and taking on the hardest challenges that the game has to offer.

Great video! Well produced and very engaging. You've also got an excellent narrating voice, awesome video man. Content to be proud of

[NoNo-llog]

Amazing narration I love this game and was hooked. I appreciate that it's not overly edited to keep your attention like so many videos nowadays

[bagellobster]

Amazing video, hollow knights speedrun is very complicated, and you showed it off perfectly. Keep up the good work

[olegnowosinski]

Sometimes someone explaining a longer speed run can be quite boring but you made it really fun and the time flew by

[therdguy]

Wow this is so cool and inspiring for my own HK journey. Thank you for an amazing video! Really inspires me to try even harder on 2.0 😊

[owentrooper]

Your channel has so much potential, I can’t wait to see what’s next for this channel in the near future! Good luck :)

[MaxJacks]

Your channel is amazing! Thank you for making videos

[Otlumrys]

I didn't know the watcher knights was a very difficult boss and now when I know I beat it without searching for guides it makes me feel happy cuz it's my first hardest boss I fought

Mom: “It’s time to go to bed”

Me: “Just 32 more minutes?”

Mom: “Okay…”

Me: *beats Hollow Knight*

[Sevorion]

This video is really well made, nice job!

I’ve never been interested in speedrunning myself, but watching these speedrun breakdown videos are a different story
