Alpharad’s 2021 in a nutshell: “Yeah I’ll play that!” “I’ll make this harder for myself!” “I can make that competitive!” “I can Speedrun that!” “For the content!” “That’s a hit!” “The bald podcast.” “That’s a miss.” “Somehow I’ve developed Carpal Tunnel… twice, so uh, 4th place isn’t that bad after all.”
Jacob: I want to improve myself mentally Also Jacob: I'm gonna bash my head into this wall until I get a world record in Mario Party ALSO also Jacob: *reads Toadette's wiki page*
AAAAAAHHHHH!!!! PAAAAAIIIINNNN!!!!!! I broke my hand yesterday because of the hate comments I get all the time. I was so angry that I punched a hole in my computer. Please don't hate me, dear qil
17:19 is a pretty accurate representation of how I felt mentally throughout the entirety of the Toadette segment of the video By the way, it really sucks that you ended up getting carpal tunnel twice, hope your hands recover from it =(
This is literally the most characteristic alpharad video I’ve ever seen. Mr Mario party dedicating himself to the point of carpal tunnel. Absolutely insane. Hope you feel better soon
Alpha, man I've missed you, but god everything you make is such a wonder to me. I don't even like Mario party that much, but you make it just so wonderful. You're great man
Hey Jacob, having been watching you for like 5 years, I know you have a incredible dedication for some things but remember sometimes it’s better to take a step back and have a rest ok, especially if you’ve got 2 carpal tunnels, I hope you recover well from the carpal tunnels
then there's me who doesn't know what a summoning salt is and instead gets an image of rick astley dancing to the song and reminded of another whiney youtuber named Jawsh who is also the Jawsh who didn't get to go to Disney land with Altrive and Coney on splash mountain, but is the the Jawsh who tells Altrive about his favorite sandwich shop
@@GoodEevee Why actually try to make content when we can just have another RUclips channel with the goal of insane numbers of subs for making no content
22:13 i honestly can't have enough of this face, i always come back to this video just to see this moment. the sheer disappointment in himself and lack of belief.... it just speaks to me.....
The thing about Mario Party is that it can either be the greatest game ever made, or the worst thing to damn this earth. And that happens in one turn so I can’t imagine what a speed run of it would be like
I’m glad I ran into this video, my friends and I started a competitive Mario Party Superstars server to completely master the game and there’s really a lot of stuff under the hood that we’re still finding out. Thanks for shedding light on how deep this games goes!
I used to be able to draw the entirety of the Castlevania: SotN map (both castles) with items and broken walls. Came in really handy when I served a mission in Upstate NY where nearly every car ride was 40 min. and your only entertainment is seeing how high the corn has grown today.
Developing carpal tunnel twice really goes to show how dedicated alpha is to his RUclips channel and to the content itself (keep up the amazing work alpha)
Fun fact: Even though Super Mario Bros. debuted in 1985, Mario himself emerged back in 1981. His first appearance was as a nameless protagonist in Donkey Kong; well, not entirely nameless. He was known as “Jumpman”.
Oh yeah Mario Party speedruns are wild. Also hahaha the Summoning Salt music. 7:54 …Koopa’s Tropical Beach? Also holy heck carpal tunnel? Hope you feel better man!
this is the first time i've liked a video in a WHILE. the amount of dedication it takes to get carpal tunnel twice just deserves everything And I just clicked on this expecting to find out how easy mario party is (apparently it's not)
@@basicallyplaced every day is a ceaseless nightmare. I don't know whats real anymore. Sometimes theres scratching at my bedroom door and from underneath it a photo of another character appears. The voice asks probing questions and all i can reply is "yeah, I'd hit it" for fear of what it would do otherwise. So yeah im doing pretty good
please rest your wrists my dude. it's always gonna come back if you don't pay attention. a good trick is changing posture/grip. the easiest way to play is just holding a joycon in each hand without the holder, and just resting your hands on your lap or something, palm facing down or toward yourself, not putting weight on your upper body at all. you can also use your index fingers instead of your thumbs, it's a bit of training but for simple commands it's useful. invest in those bags you can either put in the microwave or the freezer to help either muscle cramps or reduce the swelling. most useful is always remind yourself to stretch your fingers fully and let go of the controller from time to time. for example when a cutscene you can't skip is playing. here are my tips to you gamers. i have had severe tendonitis and carpal for years and prevention by being aware of the tensions in your body, retraining, and adjusting is key. the sooner you do it the less severe the injuries. also voltaren. lots of voltaren and ice packs.

Alpharad’s 2021 in a nutshell:
“Yeah I’ll play that!”
“I’ll make this harder for myself!”
“I can make that competitive!”
“I can Speedrun that!”
“For the content!”
“That’s a hit!”
“The bald podcast.”
“That’s a miss.”
“Somehow I’ve developed Carpal Tunnel… twice, so uh, 4th place isn’t that bad after all.”
Don't forget "That's a hit".
This has no business being so accurate
Don’t forget the bald podcast aka alpharad deluxe
"That's a miss."

Like Smallant, he dedicates 24+ hours to speedrunning a game in one day and gets a hand/wrist related injury. Take it easy Jacob

I’m more interested into how Alpha told the doctor “My wrists hurt from playing Mario Party too aggressively”
We're in the 2020s, people fucking up their wrists from doing video game speedruns is definitely not unheard of now.
I just love how 'We're finally landing' is now synonymus with speedrunning.

I love how mario just fucks up the speedrun and looks straight in your eyes while doing it
I think carpal tunnel is very uncool
Yeah
Its so rude
It's a miss, not wholesome, red flag.
With alpha's lady luck, Mario Party is a perfect speedrun game for him
Edit: Unless his hands decide to die on him
Jacob Alpharad's [Lady Luck]*
Jaiden's vid only confirmed that he is a stand user
Honestly
That Jacob accidentally killed the run
The trick is not let women ride your horse (makes lady luck jealous)
Jacob's commentary is in unusually politically incisive form and keep this shit coming please
18:11 that was definitely an Icarus moment right there
15 hrs of Mario party in one sitting was probably the turning point… especially the fact that you didn’t actually rest afterwards
"and as someone who took a statistics class before dropping out of college, I'm here to tell you: the odds are not in my favor"
that got me
The thing about Mario Party is that it can either be the greatest game ever made, or the worst thing to damn this earth.
And that happens in one turn so I can’t imagine what a speed run of it would be like
I’m glad I ran into this video, my friends and I started a competitive Mario Party Superstars server to completely master the game and there’s really a lot of stuff under the hood that we’re still finding out. Thanks for shedding light on how deep this games goes!
The lead up to the carpal tunnel joke that all of his text cutins had typos is lowkey genius
I shout "Jacob NO!" Multiple times when he drew the board. The peak of his insanity has been reached. No stopping him now.
Because he was wrong or because he was right?
I don't play Mario Party so I don't know.
and thanks to a certain Irish RUclipsr i hear this sentence now...
I feel so bad for laughing but the "twice" at the end was just way too funny to me
I mean, the look down sells it so damn much
anything he does is entertaining and everything in the past few months just proves it, an entertainer to the core
Everything proves he’s a chaotic theatre kid
*A absolute gamer, to be exact*
Alpharad straight up damaging his own health and career to perfect Mario Party. Such admirable dedication, a true hero of the modern age.
I really enjoy these longer, we’ll thought-out videos. The commentary and content is very entertaining, thank you for the happiness and good laughs
Unironically after hearing the carpal tunnel incident I said, and I Quote "That's a miss"
Not sure if that's a good thing or not.
That's a hit (this man has irreparably marred my vocabulary and I love him for it.)
“This shit kinda like squid game”
Alpharad 2021
that's not his line. It's stolen
The music summoning salt uses as his intro really sets the mood that I’m about to learn the most batshit crazy thing ever
Home - We're finally landing. Check out his stuff, it's pretty damn good. His 2014 album Odyssey is my personal favourite
22:12. "It was at that moment, he knew..."
Jacob giving away his hands for content is incredibly on brand and I applaud that: *Because I still can*
Can’t wait for him to find out that this game can also be played with friends for fun.
@Pelle_Knight _ That’s a hit
@Pelle_Knight _ no that's for add revenue
he never played any Mario Party for fun..
Can I just say how weird it feels for me hearing Alpharad's voice over Mario Party without Jo and Altrive?

You know this is gonna be a HIT when the summoning salt music starts playing
Well he may have failed to get the world record Mario party speedrun, but he definitely won the double carpal tunnel speedrun
ending the year with carpal tunnel after trying to speedrun mario party just makes sense for jacob alpharad
Alpharad really is the only person that could speedrun mario party
Also, I hope your carpel tunnel isnt that bad.
3 other people beg to differ
Imagine getting carpal tunnel twice from speed running Mario party...
Comment 33: Alpharad has not only the guts to speedrun Mario Party Superstars, but pausing the exact time to have the timer show 4:20.69

Carpal tunnel sounds painfull, hopefully you can make a speedy recovery from this.
take care Alpha.
please rest your wrists my dude. it's always gonna come back if you don't pay attention. a good trick is changing posture/grip. the easiest way to play is just holding a joycon in each hand without the holder, and just resting your hands on your lap or something, palm facing down or toward yourself, not putting weight on your upper body at all. you can also use your index fingers instead of your thumbs, it's a bit of training but for simple commands it's useful.
invest in those bags you can either put in the microwave or the freezer to help either muscle cramps or reduce the swelling. most useful is always remind yourself to stretch your fingers fully and let go of the controller from time to time. for example when a cutscene you can't skip is playing.
here are my tips to you gamers. i have had severe tendonitis and carpal for years and prevention by being aware of the tensions in your body, retraining, and adjusting is key. the sooner you do it the less severe the injuries.
also voltaren. lots of voltaren and ice packs.
