TMR: *beats boss in a fraction of the intended time, losing no health, gets three parries off and shoots at least six supers* Game: *Skill Level: 1 star*
It's a glitch I'm assuming they never coded the game thinking people would beat the boss fights so quickly so I'm pretty sure the game doesnt know how to measure it when someone's beating it in under 3 minutes
Hello, couch member here! Wanted to give some background on the commentary for the run: Because of just how difficult this run is, where a single hit of damage is a retry, and there's a lot to explain about the category, TMR needed to really focus on the run and wasn't going to be able to explain all the things he wanted explained. I think we all universally love TMR's commentary on games, but it just wasn't in the cards for this category sadly. Luckily, we had a commentary all-star willing to learn the run on short notice and take the lead for us, so I could just add any small tidbits while he could do all the heavy lifting. Blechy learned the whole run the day before while juggling other commentaries and interviews, it was really impressive, and he did exactly what we wanted really professionally and the run was so much better for it. I've been watching him on couches for years, so it was really surreal. If you're a person out there who likes a more laid back run where TMR is able to discuss the run as he plays, you are in luck! At SGDQ 2018 he did a regular difficulty run, which was much more relaxed because he was just steamrolling every boss and it was a lot of fun, you should check it out. It's also a great contrast with this run, so you can see just how much extra skill was involved with getting all the S&P ranks. Thanks! PS - If you've already seen the run, try just watching TMR's hands. I think there's smoke comin' out of that controller!
I was hoping to see some blechy love in the comments! that man put in a lot of good, well communicated explanations of more than a few runs, and he gets into the run at hand too! I really appreciate that kind of dedication. As another similar example, he put in commentary for PJdicesare's Actraiser 2 hard mode run, which was another run defined by a high difficulty. certainly an invaluable asset to any couch!
The commentator in the red shirt is fantastic throughout - especially during the robot section though. Very conscious about the fact that TMR beat island 2 on hard in about 20 minutes whereas I never even finished it on normal in the hours I put into this game...
Its one of my favourite games... Music, Artstyle, Presentation, Challenge, Fairness, Gameplay... its all great... And this speedrun man... it feels so intense, also from the viewer-perspective, awesome!
Isn't Phase 3 of the "theater" fight just a reference to JRPGs, where perfectly "normal" characters suddenly grow 20 feet tall and become angel gods during a boss fight? She even has JRPG UI pop ups!
Actually, yes, Sally Stageplay phase 3 specifically is a reference to Final Fantasy like game, her appearance is similar to Kefka from FFVI according to wiki.
I really appreciate the commentary. I've never played the game but know of it and have heard of its infamous difficulty, and the commentator really sets the stage for the boss fights, their forms, complexity, and what TMR is trying to do with each fight. Very quick yet efficiently descriptive commentating.
Man, TMR is such a pro, focused, precise, accurate, etc. The commentary was awesome, the guy doing most of the commentary is so passionated about games, very professional and incredibly informative, my type of gamer, loved this video so much!
Awesome run from TMR. Just as impressive is the stellar couching from Blechy. Condensing so much information in neat, understandable flow of words that doesnt tire your ears out after 2 minutes is just amazing.
That guy in the background who goes ‘Come on TMR!’ Which then leads into everyone else cheering him on during his mutktiple attempts at the robot is kinda heartwarming in a way
Seeing TMR is always my favorite part of GDQ and the couch guys were fantastic on such short notice. All we needed was SpikeVegeta and this would be the best run in GDQ history lol
This commentator is probably the best I've seen at GDQ so far. Really informative and gives good play by play. I love all the speed runs but having a good commentator can really help to make things more entertaining.
Never felt my sphincters so clenched watching a RUclips video. Wish I could have watched this live, but thankfully, can still donate after the fact. Long live.
For everybody that doesn't know what Sally Stageplays 3rd phase is: She's supposed to be a valkyrie. A ghost like figure from the norse mythology. She's supposed to bring those brave souls, that died in a battle, to valhalla. So apparently, it's either because she died in the battle against Cuphead, she brings herself to Valhalla which leads to her 4th phase as an angel in heaven, or she expects Cuphead to die in the battle against her and is ready to take him to heaven with her.
Am I the only one who's so thoroughly impressed by how this guy is doing all this insane shit while having casual conversation? Absolutely blows my mind how he can be so focused on these tense boss fights while calmly explaining what he's doing. I'm not that big into speedrunning to maybe it's just more common than I'd assume but this is seriously fucking crazy to me.
Whoever is doing the comms on the right of the couch. I just want to say thank you. I wish you could be the commentator for all the games. Clear voice. Just enough information & a very nice guy. Thank you so much !!!!!
I always read the comments before a speedrun if i’m not familiar enough with the game and the commentary even up to the first boss is golden! I confirm the reports lol!
after i've been up for like 2 days, i turned randomly your stream and mexican runner just started, i laughted so fucking much, had a great sleep after dat one! he is great persona

@@EvoKeKurlz*under 1 minute. Above 2 minutes, with the exception of Chef Saltbaker (not in the base game), the game gives a lower rating.
Commentator: the first 4 bosses are tutorial
TMR: WTF??? DUDE?
Funniest thing ever
No shit it's like hard enough to beat this game at first less alone an expert the first 4 levels being a tutorial is a joke and a half
What does TMR mean?
Edit:oh nvm
Then it goes full hell on ya.
Gameplay wise on regular they kinda are, at least in terms of mechanics
i feel like the root pack was the only tutorial

Audience: _applause_

It was quality commentary, the couch was great and TMR, as always, was fun to watch!
holy crap thats some good commentary and for it to be last minute, man is great.
The commentary is amazing! I love detailed commentary trying to explain everything going on.
God gamer.

48 Minutes and 42 seconds.
This was the time it took for that journalist to pass the tutorial.
He beat tmr by .7 seconds
@@GamingCreed47That's the joke
Actually it should be 40 seconds since it took that dude controlling the timer like 2 seconds to react the run was over
TMR is one of the most entertaining, gifted runners I can think of. His run of Cuphead was what I was looking forward to most.
36:26 The moment the crowd exploded when finally TMR nailed the robot after all the failures was worth the time :)
Dude on the couch needs to go into radio
The commentator in the red shirt is fantastic throughout - especially during the robot section though.
Very conscious about the fact that TMR beat island 2 on hard in about 20 minutes whereas I never even finished it on normal in the hours I put into this game...
blechy is one heck of a commentator, and he helped with a lot of games. to think that he could know so much about so many games was really cool to see
Me: makes excuses on why i cant beat a boss in cupheas
TheMexicanRunner: makes excuses on why he cant get a first try perfect rank
It was lagging tbh
Wasn’t really an excuse...it was lag
TMR is so humble and honestly one of my favorite speed runners like what a good person
Over 21 minutes ahead of the estimate, TMR as usual supremely delivers.
this run made me sweating and nervous just watching holy shit
Can we just take a minute to appreciate how beautiful this games art and music are. Well done
este juego te deja con la boca abierta de lo bien echo que esta GUAU
Yes 👏👍🤝
Amazing runner. Funny thing about this game is nearly 50% of the people who purchased it could not even complete it due to the difficulty.
So if a buy it 2 times I will 100% beat it?
@@lusalar4463hahahhahahahha
It was a lot more difficult than that.. maybe 20% managed to beat it
I fell in love with the game so not beating it would really eat at me, it’s so well done
the audience member screaming "YEEAAAH"at 3:56 is what brought me the energy I needed to enjoy this run thoroughly
Its one of my favourite games... Music, Artstyle, Presentation, Challenge, Fairness, Gameplay... its all great...
And this speedrun man... it feels so intense, also from the viewer-perspective, awesome!
TMR running Cuphead again, with Blechy on the couch? All of the yes.
VodkaFox your profile pic is terrifying but I love it
im really proud of this guy i remember when cuphead just came out and he wasnt even showing his face yet. what a legend
Isn't Phase 3 of the "theater" fight just a reference to JRPGs, where perfectly "normal" characters suddenly grow 20 feet tall and become angel gods during a boss fight?
She even has JRPG UI pop ups!
Not just _any_ JRPGs, but Kefka from Final Fantasy 6.
Actually, yes, Sally Stageplay phase 3 specifically is a reference to Final Fantasy like game, her appearance is similar to Kefka from FFVI according to wiki.
Specifically a reference to Kefka from FFVI, I believe.
Specifically, it's a reference to Kefka from FFVI
I do believe that in specific it’s a reference to Kefka from FFVI, to be particular
It took longer than this for me to beat the first boss
TMR did a great job, this is so entertaining to watch and I'm feeling stressed just watching it
This was one of the highlights of the event. Stayed up til 2am on a work day, and it was worth it.
Is it just me, or is the commentary on point this gdq?
It's really good.
The commentary is the best I've heard in GDQ
This agdq seemed more professional, I would say that at least
If they don't hire him soon, then they will make a big mistake
What does gqd stand for?
What a competitive runner! You can see his frustration, but also the determination to get the w. It's inspiring

The guy says “He got that S”
But All I hear is “He got that a$$” XD
Imagine trying to speak a foreign language and still slamming cuphead into dust, what a champ.
Awesome run from TMR. Just as impressive is the stellar couching from Blechy. Condensing so much information in neat, understandable flow of words that doesnt tire your ears out after 2 minutes is just amazing.
Okay godammit RUclips suggestion bot i watched it, I watched the whole damn thing
lol
Same here, you know a good video of it keeps you entertained throughout its entire duration. Simply amazing!
this guy is amazing. speaking a foreign language to him while playing the most fast paced game of last year
This game is legit HARD. Big-ups to TMR!
TMR is a GOD of gaming. He makes cuphead look way to easy...
This man makes me proud to be Mexican. His leet gamer skill is godamn _mythical._
Man, that game is a kick in the nuts, and he's taking basically no damage at all. Mad props for the runner.
TMR seems like the sweetest person ever I wanna meet him
this commentator is awesome! high energy. this runner is amazing!!!
Game looked cool so i bought it, went to the first run and gun level. Stuck for 40 minutes and ragequit, nice game 10/10
This is the most skilled speed runner I have ever seen.
Blechy as commentator is always a treat. They should have him commentate more runs!
It's one of those videos I clicked on to quickly skim through, but I winded up watching the whole thing. Entertaining from start to finish, great run!
tmr has his priorities straight. He loves dem P's and S's. He's just that likable.
This is my first time seeing this game.
The artwork is *beautiful*
The comments of this video are surprisingly wholesome.
TMR brings out the best in us.
That game is a masterpiece. I love the art in it a lot.
Very well done @ the runner.
This is such an amazing run. I appreciate the guy on couch explaining stuff and tmr’s humor and skills. Wild.
TMR is an amazing runner and just a treat to watch. Gotta love GDQ.
This commentator was amazing.
TMR is not human with his god like reflexes amazing job!
best run ever. From the couch to the runner all amazing people.
That guy in the background who goes ‘Come on TMR!’ Which then leads into everyone else cheering him on during his mutktiple attempts at the robot is kinda heartwarming in a way
I've never seen a runner I wished so hard I knew IRL.
I just watched this channel like a week ago and Im loving it!!! So great runners and people just having fun. 5 stars my friends
Always nice to see a new run of cuphead
51:20 dat clap by the audience was rly nice
What an insane run. Huge props to the runner and amazing commentary
TheMexicanRunner is a legend!
By the time he's in the second island, I'm still in the first level
Kudos to the runner.
Kudos to the couch members.
Not to forget, kudos to the audience for cheering up the runner

This commentator is probably the best I've seen at GDQ so far. Really informative and gives good play by play. I love all the speed runs but having a good commentator can really help to make things more entertaining.
Watched this pretty much not knowing anything about Cuphead and I can clearly see this guy is amazing, wow. Loved this run!
the closed captions on this video is great
Pfft. You missed the hardest boss.
The tutorial
That is why most speedrunners avoid it. We are lucky the creators made it completely optional.
LOOOL
TMR is the hero we all need !!
One of the best runs I've seen in years. TMR is super entertaining, the couch was fantastic and had great chemistry with each other and TMR.
The best runner ever, no doubt.
Great commentary, great run. Top stuff!
"Lets see that S"
"Show me that S"
Never felt my sphincters so clenched watching a RUclips video. Wish I could have watched this live, but thankfully, can still donate after the fact. Long live.
this commentator is amazing, his energy adds so much!
Well, now it's time to feel bad about my personal gaming skills...
Nah, TMR is just insane

So, the beam from the ship pariable...
OF COURSE IT IS, IT'S PINK, I WASTED 4 HOURS TO KILL THIS BOSS, IF I ONLY KNEW!!!!......!!!!!!
Ducking under it works to

By far the most entertaining run and the best commentary this year

This was the ultimate run of the entire show as far as I’m concerned.
"There is actually a safe spot in the upper left."
* gets hit one second later *
Don´t let yourself down! The world needs you :)
I've been playing every difficulty game you can think of for twenty years and TMR makes me feel like an infant with a rattler
Damn the robot is such a hassle
damn he makes this game look easy!
after i've been up for like 2 days, i turned randomly your stream and mexican runner just started, i laughted so fucking much, had a great sleep after dat one! he is great persona
Dude this guy is funny as hell... I cant believe he defeated Devil in just 1 min or even less Damn even on Expert GG's
So far my favorite run for agdq
till this day they are looking for 3 things to parry.
TMR is my favourite gamerunner of all time!!
best speedrun ive seen in a while great job to everyone involved
possibly the hardest game i've ever played love it
RUclips recomend this video to me and wow this game seems hard just playing it normally speed running this must take mad skill
