Smant constantly jumping to start a wavedash and then waiting until he *hits the ground* to actually perform the dash and just does a hyper instead is amazing.
yeah scrolled down to check the comments for that lol
when?
@@isameserah161 Ex: 5:16:40
He does it many times at the start of this room, including at this timestamp.
@@alansmithee419 thank you! I understand now
the neat thing is a lot of wave dashes in this map are viable with extended hyper dashes or super dashes
celeste speedrun tech is awesome
1:01:08
"It took him almost 4 hours for the first part? Oh, were almost done then."
God thats hilarious if you know what the rest of the chapter holds.
"dont think youre even halfway there"
"Yeah im almost done"
Denial after realizing the truth
3:33:35 has the same energy
fun fact: originally you couldn't die after getting a crystal heart, but the developer went back and "fixed" it so you could.
I remember reading that time ago on Twitter. Ngl that's incredibly cruel for chapters like 6B or 8C, but also its sadistically funny in a way
@@BUGFlower413 6B was the first level to really kick my ass. Think I died like 500 times on that one
@@ike8028 It's understandable, 6B is really hard on first playthrough. Probably the first level that made me suffer was eiter 3B or 4B (bc Oshiro and snowballs respectively)
@@BUGFlower413 I didn't think 3B was too bad, although the Oshiro section was definitely a bit difficult
@@ike8028 Even nowadays Oshiro is kinda hard for me in mods :00 Idk why I have so much trouble getting his timing right TwT (again, same with snowballs too)
Smant: Bro, it's one chapter! How hard can it be?
Also Smant: Plays for 8 and a half hours
Was just about to say, lmao. Pretty sure my first time on this took me well over 16 hours
@@LittlKer damnnn it took me just under 5h
lol same... I hadn't opened the game in forever and didn't even know there was a new chapter, but I started in the evening and just couldn't finish it in time so I had to let my Switch run to continue the next day after work.
In the end I accumulated around 2k deaths.
@@killaknight12 my total was around 3.6k i think
@@LittlKer 2, 3.6? I got around 17 THOUSAND!
Than practacly did all c sides third try
I love how the last screen takes up 1/4th of the stream
Lol, almost 2 hours. I didnt notice 🤣🤣🤣
6:00:13 his reaction to the final room is just great
Wait it took him like 2hours he mustve been tired huge respect to him actually pushing through though
@@the_legendary_fire i mean that room took me like 1.5 hours ish so yea
22:40 " you could probably skip that if you really tried hard enough ". He has no clue there is a whole skip to all five of the keys for this room
8:19:28 if you want to see the final screen completed! (Starting from 6:00:12, he spent over 2 hours on this room alone. much better than I could do tbh)
it only took me 1:20-1:30
@@skellaking6118 very cool story bro
took me 5 hours, still havnt even entered c sides though
@@goosegohonk9055they are waaaaaay eaiser… mostly because there just 3 rooms usually took me about 1/2 to complete one
8:00 "Bro it's one chapter how hard could it be?"
*Looks at VOD length*
5:58:00 "has he learned how to wave dash yet?"
"Nope, I have not learned how to wave dash."
If only you knew how correct you were in that statement.
Him speeding through the story/text hurts due to its, well, greatness
He’s definitely reading it, just not out loud
Is Celeste's story that great?
@@janyozenith4331 nice bait
It's not a bait, it's a genuine question. I played though the main game like four years ago and read it all. This time I came back to it to finish what I couldn't before (7c and Farewell) and I don't remember much from the story. How great is it?
@@janyozenith4331 it's hard to put into exact words, especially thought text, but if you're genuinely curious, I wouldn't be surprised if there's a multitude of videos explaining why, lol
8 and a half hours
perfect for staying up all night
Actuality watching this rn at 5:45 I'm so tired someone drug me hifeidyfgieurbfiy3brf8yg3rigefr
He didn't do the other C-sides. Sadge
also no moonberry but understandable
@@elswayr4525 moon berry is kinda fun though, just hardd to get to
@@jaki1876 not much more difficult than base game, just not very intuitive to backtrack like that
i wanted to see his reaction to 7c and 8c final rooms (even though they aren't as bad as farewell final room)
@@weegeelord1337 I wanted to see him do the whole game, hoping for a final wrap up vid
Haha well done ant, doing all of farewell in one sitting is just crazy
52:16 that throw took me longer than I'd like to admit to figure out. I spent so long trying to bounce off of the spring, throw it, then dash back onto the spring to regrab it and go through the door. Felt kinda stupid for spending like 40 minutes trying the wrong strat
“that throw took me longer than I’d like to admit”
*admits how long it took them*
@@insertnamehere787 they didn't say they wouldn't admit they just said they wouldn't like it
I finally finished chapter 9 and it said I had 6969 deaths. It was fricking perfect.
I loved and watched your entire playthrough of Celeste on these vods. I could tell you were liking the game but also that you were concerned about how many people would enjoy this content and the thought of you completing it as fast as possible just to be done with it and be able to return to your more popular content crossed my mind. I hope you had your fun regardless and, for what it's worth, I don't play ANY of the games you stream regularly but I still enjoy your content a lot because of you yourself :)
1:40:29 YOU CAN JUST HOLD ON AT THE VERY BOTTOM OF THE BLOCK????
Holy shit the way I did it (let go then wallbounce off the side of the moving block into the blue switch) is waaaay harder than that
yep, you can also skip the coins and it's easier lol
Wdym it's way easier
Did it third try with that route
@@joaopeixoto6224 I didn't say it was way easier just easier, it's not like a difference of intended is impossible and this is free, but I also think when making this comment I neglected that the last dashes are actually kinda tight sorry
Hey, I did the same thing!
@@joaopeixoto6224It is way easier, also way more consistent
At 11:20 the "update" made that screen much easier. The spring block that drops and lands on the lower block... that lower block didn't used to exist. You had to do a fast fall to catch up with the falling block and hit the spring to bounce off it. If you weren't fast enough it drops off the screen.
Oooh si that's why my screen (and Smant's) were different from PointCrow's
Not gonna lie I was laughing a lot on the last screen at some points but not out of malice but because that's absolutely relatable
5:18:30 it's funny seeing him struggle on things I got right away and then one shooting things that took me a half hour.
I really really enjoy Celeste, but it desperately needs a joystick calibration function to let the player decide which joystick positions will go straight vs diagonal. I've had to use a joystick-to-keyboard remapper (antimicro) to get the correct directions reliably. Without that calibration, my death count skyrockets.
Honestly, that sounds like a skill issue.
@@Nalyd_VS Same joystick, same game, same computer, same player... but a 2X or higher difference in death count depending on whether joystick calibration is used or not. Like, I've often needed to hold a diagonal without walking, to prep for a hyperdash, while waiting for the right timing on a cycle. Without calibration, simply holding that is incredibly difficult... but with calibration, it's easy. I'm not a top-tier gamer though. My fastest speedrun time for Celeste barely under an hour.
However, SmallAnt is very skilled and played it on a platform with much better support and testing. And even he died like a thousand times to what he called "joystick moments" or "freaking diagonals". When even a world-class gamer has a problem like this, it tells me the game's joystick code could probably use some changes or calibration options, to more reliably do what the player intended.
@@ToyKeeper I really don't know what to tell ya dude, I play with a joystick on pc and there's no problems for me. Usually when I need to do an input it works as intended. I'm not a "pro" or whatever at celeste, I don't speedrun the game, I don't use advanced techniques to beat levels faster so I'm just speaking based on my own experience. Maybe if I was trying to speedrun the game or trying to do the harder levels where I'm required to do the more advanced techniques, then maybe I'd have more of a problem, but as of now, I haven't had any problems.
@@Nalyd_VS Yeah, if you're not doing speedrun strats, it probably won't be very noticeable. The calibration really seems to depend on the exact joystick used, too.
I tried measuring it one day... and I found that, with the game's native joystick support, there was like a 10-degree range where diagonals worked correctly on the controller I was using. When using an external calibration though, I got it to 45 degrees, which is the correct amount.
The game should be able to do this without external programs. Otherwise though, it's great. One of my favorite games ever.
@@ToyKeeper How exactly would you measure this kind of stuff, kinda curious how my controller compares. I'm not sure if using an xbox controller with windows helps with anything or not, just thought I would mention it.
Maybe it's because I didn't do chapter 9 all in a row (I look around a few months break between sessions), but I thought the last room- yes, the entire thing (almost)- was hella fun.
(Almost excluding the moon berry because trying to do that route is awful)
agreed...although honestly the route up to the moon berry isn't that bad in of itself except for that if you slip off before getting to the final bit of it, you have to redo THE ENTIRE FINAL SCREEN
@@megarotom1590 That's exactly the part that annoys me the most about that room.
@@Gamesmarts194 that's fair...though honestly the final screen isn't really hard just long so once you've got it down, it's mostly just an inconvenience and the route itself isn't that hard, I only died a few times myself.
I loved the moon berry, it makes you feel like a pro even though anyone who can do ch 9 could get it with enough time
42:00
Smant: “I made it through the tutorial section at least”
Everyone who played Farewell: “Nop not yet”
Playing Path of pain after beating celeste made PoP an absolute joke
Agreed, it was still pretty fun and enjoyable though
Never played celeste but pop still isn’t that bad
@@axelling_atk true, but having played the original megaman and Megaman X really helped me with the movement and bosses, but lots of people havent played games with such movement, plataforming, or challenges before, that's why most people struggle, because they dont have the expirience or the patience. Congrats on PoP
@@axelling_atk i feel the same, took me less than an hour but it was still fun because of how much i love HK
@@yooshi7301 True. Took 2h for the first time, 20m for the second
I just got Celeste on my computer and got to this point, I only tried chapter 9 for a hour before I turned on asist mode. I got to the wave dash part, if I tried for 8 hours I could do it but Holy shit 8 hours is a lot.
Bless him he really thought chapter 9 was easy..
1:24:45 this is where i gave up.
i enjoyed the game a lot, but i was stuck at this point for so long it became detrimental to my love for this game.
eventualy i decided that i shall end it there and maybe finish the dlc some other day.
and then i did, a year later. took me about 6 days of on and off playing and a total of 10 hours, but i did it.
why did you give up on the easiest room you just wave dash 1 time xd
@@gdstar6917 spoken like a troll that has never beat this game.
I thought the room at 2:10:19 was way harder than that
@@friedtomato7067 it was also hard, but i personaly struggled more with the wavedashes than the wallbounces. though this room takes a lot of time too.
ain’t no way it took you 10 hours to do 3 wave dashes in a row ☠️
I swear some of the individual screens in this are harder than the entire b-sides.
I haven't attempted any of the c-sides, but have finished all a and b sides and am almost at the end of chapter 9, and I gotta say, Chapter 9 is just a different game in terms of difficulty
@@danielarputharaj9918 c sides are piss easy
@@lasagnaboi3000 i did them after farewell, and yeah I agree
They're also the easiest to do deathless by far
„It’s just one chapter, how hard can it be?“ he says at the beginning of an 8-hour stream
26:46 this took him like 4 minutes but I swear that one key took me about 35 minutes
46:45
that's so smart, no physical evidence that you hid the answers there too it's just perfect
I didn't even know about the letting go of the jellyfish by holding down and I played through all of farewell.
How lol
i dont even think thats possible lol
ah ok i misread the og comment, i must have been tired
So do i. Also played through farewell but didnt know that trick
it gives you the option to do upward boosts without needing a wall, which is useful in moon berry room for additional options, and is used in a lot of mods
also, you can do quite a lot of the same things with theo crystals, just a bit more difficult
Bro said ‘how many rooms are there’ and when chat responded he said no spoilers and got angry 💀
Where?
Smant ranging is like Princess Azula in ATLA;
chat member: you got this you're halfway there!
smant: by telling me I'm halfway there you have spoiled how far into the level I am and thus are not only backseating but also spoiling the game. for that you shall be muted.
3:02:25 It lines up really well and is one of the easiest levels in farewell if you just start with an extended super dash (not hyper dash)
just love it when a streamer ignores the game to say random stuff, warms my heart
I watched you play Celeste for so long last episode that I'm thinking I'm seeing Madeline in thumbnails that don't XD
Instantly performing a jellyvator after reading about it in one comment, what a lad
I was waiting for this
Finally a worthy challenge for God gamer smallant
also technically chapter 9 is flagged as a c side judging by the yellow skull death counter
no it's just not categorised, the attempts count is on both A B and C
@@maxano3004 ACTUALLY the death count is in the same column as the B sides so...
@@megarotom1590 yeah but there's no seperation unlike the other chapters
@@maxano3004 yah...it's its own thing
When I eventually do the golden on farewell I'm recording every step and seeing how long the videos are and how much space it takes up.
That might take until the end of next year tho, I've only got 9 goldens at the moment.
Good luck. I got all the other golds, practiced Farewell for 55hrs (literally) and gave up because the two middle sections I couldn’t even get a practice run of it perfect
9 is a lot already I have in 1a 2a 1c 2c 5c and 7c so only six. The B sides are the most annoying out of them definitely
did you do it?
@@Xenoxvvv not quite, my lowest deaths in a run is currently 13, I want to get it down to 5 or so fairly consistently before I start properly running. Also I ran out of storage space a few months ago so I couldn't do this
fwg is probably my personal ultimate celeste goal, currently working on 7ag
The story improves the experience SO MUCH
Can’t believe in this monster of a level there’s only a pineapple and a pear and 0 cherries
Im just here for the 27 hour long last part .... and the music that was with it
"What platform is this game on?"
"Looks like moon rocks"
Not liking the story is a crime. Then again, the story is the gameplay basically, so… 🤷🏻♀️
Wish we could've seen his journal at the end lol
Who's?
@@carmenjuliarodriguez3221 Smallant's journal to see deaths and times and stuff
Alright Smant now do the moon berry, the other C-sides, the flying golden strawberry...and then if you want to die, the golden strawberries
I actually did all that in my playthrough... minus the golden strawberries (I did get some golden, the golden flying and all the normal ones)
@@tomas_iss7469 I've done all but the moon berry. I've also only gotten one golden strawberry aside from the flying one
honestly, I think it's worth doing all red berries, the moon berry, the flying golden in ch 1, and the c-side goldens. past that not really, but I also did 1a and b goldens, along with 2 a and b goldens. once you get done with those you should check out the mods on pc. just finished all of glyph excluding goldens personally.
@@Blazewolf000 All the C-side goldens and also 1b and 2b goldens...you have the patience of a saint.
@@megarotom1590 okay, but the C sides are so short that goldens take like at most 20 mins per, and only the final rooms are actually hard (7c and 8c take about 45 mins each rather than the 20) and 2b is just easy and fun so it doesn't even feel like a grind. 1b is not fun however, the rooms where the checkpoints are kind of run killers. Specifically the spring/duck moving platform.
btw there are golden strawberry's in the game if you go on a chapter in a,b or c side you will see it
Early in the stream: “I don’t rage at games”
Later: 8:12:55
Joystick moment goes brrr
To be fair, anyone would get angry if they were stuck 2 entire hours on that room and the lose there
Spent 5 hours getting halfway, would’ve taken like 8-10 hours for the rest + moonberry and endscreen is about 15 hours?
A lot of time
When did he do the rest of the c sides? Did they not get archived?
Nice job, next stop the golden strawberries :)
Shut up
Well, more realistically it'd be C-sides
@@sheppin_ shut up
He isn't doing golden berries
@@muhammedsamman yeh they’re kinda boring
1:01:08 Smallant: Oh, were almost done then? Chat: WE WANT MORE SUFFERING!!! *WE WILL GIVE YOU MORE SUFFERING!!!!!* I already have enough suffering playing this on pc lmao 💀💀💀
I couldn’t find the vod before this was it just a stream?
8 hours and a half
hoo boy this gon be good
Did Smant not upload the void for Chapter 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, C sides?
in the room at 1:37:13 smant couldve avoided standing on Kevin’s head makes it pretty easy
He said he already knew how to wavedash, not knowing he was doing hyperdashes the whole time XD
“It’s one chapter how hard can it be”
smallant did you get the winged gold strawberry for beating chapter with no dashing?
"I know how to wavedash"
*proceeds to ignore the explanation and does it wrong for most of the run*
“It’s a little more fun if I play it myself”, chat literally had to tell him how the pufferfish worked
Which is annoying. It would have been much more satisfying if he had been able to figure it out on his own.
Your statement isn’t the contradictory thing you think it is.
1:19:13 You're not living up to the legend, gato."
He should play chapter 6 again on a new save file named "FWAHAHA"
"Cursed coyote frames don't exist, they can't hurt you."
Cursed coyote frames: 1:23:37
wait that's hilarious
Twitch chat: "it took me fifteen hours to finish this level"
Smallant : " its one chapter how long could it be"
Also Smallant :( takes eight plus hours to finish level) lmfao 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
8:12 ah yes just one chapter that is insanely difficult
I also did this on Switch, so I was on controller, which is already that much harder than on keyboard, but I also did it with Joy cons in handheld mode, so it was especially bad. It took 12 hours, but I did it. Then I went back and did all the B sides.
I love the mach 20 bird
ant, if you feel like it, on pc theres a super high quality mod called spring collab which has 5 main story's worth of levels :)
edit: *stories'
I feel like he’s not going to like the expert and grandmaster lobbies very much lol, they’re a bit too painful
Damn joycon drift really did some nasty work that stream
He had drift?
I feel like my favourite part of this stream is all the people asking if he has done all the B sides
in the section after the heart gate that requires you to have all the B sides.
Like sure you can skip it but it's not exactly a very easy trick
It really is though
@@hugoland9027 It may be easy, but I wouldn't really expect someone to do it accidentally.
@@mcawesome9705 yeah and you don’t gotta do it accidentally you look it up you do if like that
where's the final part though? isn't he still missing some C sides and the golen starberries?
i will watch the whole thing, but first i just...*checks time bar*...wanna see how long the last room took him
Started at 6:00:13, didn't check when he got the run
8:19:28 is the part where he beats it
tbh i think smallant should play the recently-released Strawberry Jam!
i think he'd really enjoy it
who on earth plays through farewell for 8 hours and just skips through the final cutscene wtf lol. like winning a gold medal and then not taking the medal its literally what you spent the last 8 hours playing for
he didn't?
@@chickentechno3410 he literally just spammed A and mummered whatever words he picked up on as he was skipping through he clearly dgaf lol
I'm watching smant do the longest screen in the game and getting ptsd
Was I the only one to do the infinite wall jump mechanic in the room at 3:53:56
Arent the fish basically the bumpers that he loves?
smant i believe in you, i believe you can do the other c-sides
I feel like ant was breaking around the four hour mark sure that guy breaking the rule didn’t help but feel like it was mostly the difficulty
I can't wait for this to be edited down.
Who even is this “Mozart” guy I’ve never heard of him in my life
I want him to watch the tas of farewell
Smant: "Chapter 9 took you 7 hours total? Bro, you're playing for a long time. This is where you quit the game. Sad"
Also Smant: Plays more then 8 hours on this level

Great, now get the moon berry
1:11:07 "Oh, that's the end" um... not quite
This game deserves your skill
Shut up
19:00
Final room is really easy (comparatively speaking), it's just long.
There is a secret hidden in the "last screen" that leads you to the moon berry (the secret berry of the chapter)
Dude no spoilers...... let him learn of it himself
@@Amoslzf that was literally an issue last stream lmfaooooooooooo
@@Amoslzf Literally no one will learn that by themselves though, it's pretty much invisible if you don't know about it
