Great video! I'm excited to trade this record back and forth a few more times. We're at the point now where incredible luck (getting the Masamune from one of the first three panthers, for example, saves many seconds on skipped level-ups) IS NOT enough. It'll need to be a combination of
You know the Saturn version is weird when there's no Richter and yet you still perform Richter skip, in the dark, out-of-bounds (but also kind of in-bounds) into a pixel-perfect out of place teleport that gets you a few rooms to the left of where you should be. Like HOW did they manage to mess it up like that! 🤣
The year is 20XX and speedrunning has peaked to the point of literal gambling, with entire runs requiring chains of one in a million drops from all sorts of enemies in the game.
It's always amazing seeing DB and Jupiter competing to break records. You'd think "Oh there's no way it can be done faster", but time and time again, they're always able to prove how goated they are.
Great video, Dr4gonBlitz! With RNG manipulation on the table, I've been wondering, have any TAS runners tried using the Iron Shield and the Mablung Sword in this category? You'd get the Iron Shield from RNG manipulating a Winged Guard on your way to fight Hippogriff and the Mablung Sword from RNG manipulating the Spectral Sword in that room you end up in from out of bounds after performing the spike room clip.
Hey Dr4gonBlitz. I was watching your latest upload on Dr4gonBlitzDaily and you asked about if someone was recommended this video. I wanted to let you know I am a subscriber of both channels, but rarely am I recommended videos from this channel. I usually will always be recommended the Dr4gonBlitzDaily same day as uploaded. I am typically subscribed to 50+ channels, but I find it odd the algorithm doesn't recommend this channel on my feed compared to the other channel.
I love how every time a new speedrunning strat comes out it’s all “oh no, this is insane, impossible to pull off consistently, there’s a one in a million chance of getting it, nobody can ever do it in a real run, it’s TAS only…” Then some absolute madman comes and does it anyway and then everyone else needs to get on board to beat the impossible new record haha!
This is such a cool speed run, I think it’s awesome that there’s a completely broken arbitrary code execution in this game and yet there’s still a faster route to the end
Runs like these have to be so stressful when you don't even know until midway through whether the run is a run😓it's definitely entertaining, but the grind is brutal.
Can’t that initial save with Maria be prepared beforehand or must it be done on the same power-on of the console/emulator? If it could be prepared before, then it shouldn’t count to the total time (like setting a “clear” save to be able to buy duplicators with Alucard doesn’t count).

In Twitch chat I'm already gambing (and losing all my garnet coins) on these runs anyway 😆
Minecraft speedruns be like:
That Jupiter guy seems pretty alright at this. He should try speedrunning more often.
I could easily beat this world record. Just play frame perfectly from the start everytime EZ
You a real one for editing the "Entering the 2nd Castle" part the way you did.
You're so good at explaining things in your videos, man. Every time.
This is like Summoning Salt dedicated for SotN and it’s sick as hell
4:35 Tetra means four. Tetra Spirit summons four orbs, not five (you can see only four spawn in). Dragonblitzdaily wouldn't have made this mistake smh
Not me making a small error in the script so I can get free comment engagement 😈
I heard 5 too, but my brain auto-corrected to 4 automatically. @@dr4gonblitz
So what you're telling me is I should never run this category haha. Great video DB, loved the dive into the RNG and manipulation in particular

14:13 "Imagine I got it right here" 🤣

I changed the bell, and it rang my life. So I rang it back, and it changed my life!
This run being faster than ACE is just insanity. Now we wait for the 08:1X to happen.
Technically every Alucard run starts outside of the castle.
Great video! Really excited to see the trades of World Record back in forth in this category.
Great video, thank you, it was fun to watch live! Good luck on the grind, you can do it!
Imagine getting the Masamune at the Panther right before Medusa.
Great explanation on the who, the what, the when, the how and the why of this SOTN speedrun category. GG’s DB

Good luck on getting the WR on the Sega Saturn version of SOTN!
Guys, DB totally knows that tetra spirit only summons four spirits. And also that tetra is greek for 'four'. Relax.
Watching these runs the last few weeks has been really fun

Love your videos, thank you. Also congratulations!
Luv the vid Dragon. Keep up the good work.
Amazing video, DB! And GL with the runs, you've got this! 💛

Dude, you're an absolute legend. My brain just melt. 🤯
This is amazing i can’t believe how crazy these glitches are 😮
Those edits are clean!
This is super cool as usual for an outsider, but one could argue, if the game thinks you are Maria is it still an Alucard run?

RING MY BEEEEEEEELL, ring my bell
darn alucard stealing all the relics from maria
I rang the bell and it changed my life!
Blizt i hope yo make more videos like this
is there another weapon that can be grabbed earlier in the run to the same effect for more potential time save
Wouldn't the save RNG manip remove the need to grab the mana prism? or would it be too tight ?
yes the save refills the mana for the run
I rang the bell and it changed my life
:)
Summoning Salt Colab when ??
I rang the bell and it changed my life! :)
Db main channel vid, hell yeah 😎❤️
Just get lucky - best advice ever.
I hope a new consistent rng manip can be found!
I rang the bell and it changed my life
:) also, check out the twitch streams
12:19 RNG resetting to the same value after every restart huh? What is this, Pokemon Emerald?
Mariacard Any%
Joel
Can't wait until you get the record so you can go back to randomizer LOL. This run has been miserable! Good luck!
Let's hope for a WR soon.
I rand the bell and it changed my life :)
I managed to do the DP on stream
Resident Evil like Intro
Now I know all I need to beat DB :)
This means I have legendary luck 🎉 (Without any glitch )
pee pee poo poo good video
:)
(why do I let you tell me what to type? I feel like a child. At least it's actually a good video!)
I'm leaving a comment as instructed.
+11.7 to -41.4 = 53.1s saved, no? or was that not part of the timesave from getting the masamune
She carries a vial of MERmen? Why am I feeling like this was an inside joke by the developers...
Peepeepoopoogood😊
pee pee poo poo good video
:)
I want to know hot to make this Speedrun xd
What is a glitch
A miserable little pile of pixels...
pee pee poo poo good video
💪❤️🔥
FORST
OMG he uses a DS3 indicator for a Saturn run 🤮🤮
If you glitch, speedruns are viable. Its just cheating. Speedrun it the right way
Looking for the pee pee poo poo good video :) comments
