@jeao7115 when he got to hades I commended him for besting tisiphone (in my opinion) the easiest of the sisters somewhat quickly but dying to the minotuar by himself is simply a lack of akill in my opinion. He's a slower boss but easy to no hit if cautious
I feel like this challenge would be much more interesting if the person who didn't pick the game got to pick the character/weapon/deck that both players have to play as.
Some Improvements I would love in the future would be: slow down a little bit with the game summary's and maybe add a short explanation of the games(like literally 5-20 seconds with random gameplay in the background) so that everybody knows what is happening(not just text on screen but a short explanation(kinda like alpharad does for example)) I played 4/5 games and knew enough about balatro to at least know what was happening but a friend I sent this video skipped balatro since he had no idea about the game. Still I can see potential in this series(and your channel) and wish you great luck and success on your YT journey!
This is a really good video and i was suprised when i saw that you are a smaller channel. I would love to see more videos on rogulikes and rogulites because they are my favorite game genres
As somebody with 800+ hours on ror2. Not alot by any means but I have my fare share if experience. When the vagrant does the Weiner bomb dash away immediately and with huntress aiming isn't as important because of her auto aim so you can usually stay away. Also keep an eye on everything around you so you don't get frozen or hit by any other random aliens around you. Your enemy priority is also important. Wisps tend to take priority over let's say a beetle. Wisps take priority over beetle queen. Vagrant and (imo) dunestrider.
great video idea with the roguelikes, but i think an idea just to keep the "roguelike" part of it and to keep it fair would be a new save file for each game... yes this would take alot longer to do LOL but maybe livestreamable!
lovely video, didnt know wtf was going on in the first game but anyways. would love to see The Binding Of Isaac Rebirth and Darkest Dungeon 2 (since DD2 is more rougelike compared to DD1 with their seperate runs).
I second this, find more of your friends to vs, potentially leading to a tournament format, if you have a hard time finding ppl to do this with, maybe reach out to your community for more engagement, plus I feel like this format is perfect for streaming, if ur into that
Also another small tip is to explain what's happening a bit more game wise. If you have to look it up and get a friend's gameplay if need be. I also think it would be more fun to have fresh saves since neither would have the advantage of unlocks and only have the advantage of skill and rngesus. Ror2. Gungeon. And Balatro (still getting into it may be wrong) are very rng heavy. Having bad items in ror2 can spell doom and gungeon just gets way harder with worse stuff. But it is all skill in the end. Great video though bajd very enjoyable
Really enjoying your roguelike content man, would love to see some ascension 20 runs on slay the spire with a more detailed explanation on deckbuilding if thats something you enjoy
Saw this video pop up on my for you page on RUclips and you’re really funny and then I saw your sub count and said wow I found a hidden gem! Also fuck balatro some times it hates me I swear 😂😂
next time you should get him to just record the game audio so you can layer your own voice audio and doesnt get scuffed like this :p ( im assuming thats why you switched the voice audio when on his pov so we can hear the game ). also would be big cool if you put in time stamps for games
a tip, explaine what you are doing in the game. like i have never played balatro and i didn't understand anything you were saying. other then that i like the content (:
Also just in case ur confused on how Rob was so much faster There's 8 antes which has the 2 blinds a boss as I mentioned before. You can also skip these for bonuses like special cards (too much to explain), more joker packs (eg choose 1 out of 3 jokers) or unique modifers on jokers like how our guys was rainbow (strongest scaling effect modifer). Usually not worth it because it's only really there is you know ur winning So basically: Rob got stuntman, ice cream and brainstorm (which copies the left most joker which was stunt man) That guarantees him 1000 chips so the minimum is 250.5x250.5 (using balanced) which is 60k. Once he new this he just skipped a lot and won. Ik I didn't explain why there are floating cars or how u play cards but I just suggest u get the game lol
if you're a fan of Slay the spire, i recommend Beneath oresa. Same shit, but with actual animation, as in if you get a punch card your character will run up and punch as opposed to the static animations of your character just stoicly shaking in StS. Cool characters too.
Great video! Hope your channel just pops off from here :) I will say tho, I kinda wish you could listen to a bit more of the game. I was definitely bummed not hearing unc Poseidom yell “Nephew!”.
You have probably played this already, but if you enjoy Roguelikes and you wanna play a really really really good Roguelike / Roguelite with multiplayer, The new binding of isaac repentance + dlc just got released, and its absolutely awesome, I genuinely recommend it (omg i just noticed its downloaded in your steam library, im sorry)
Tboi is definitely one of my favorites. rob has never played it so I couldn't include it this time but I'm hoping I can convince him to get it for part two.
Ngl, with this format, the person that starts with a win is screwed, cuz the one that starts with a loss has 1 more chance to choose a game they are good at
It follows a very rougelike structure. Randomly seeded rooms items and shops. A little bit of boss variation. Technically is a rougelike or rougelite despite probably being the least rougelike like game on here
Was it hades heat 0 or am I blind? If so, how the f*ck do you die here with full unlocks and game knowledge XD Also poor weapon choices for a speedrunny strat :
@tob._. something something metaprogression something something YOU SOUND LIKE A TROGLODYTE, FOAMING AT THE MOUTH.

The Berlin Interpretation was established for a reason, philistine, and I shall not stand for the degradation of meaningful terminology in the video game space for it is an ATTACK and language and by that THOUGHT ITSELF. I care not for your whims, fool, but I CARE ABOUT WORDS MEANING THINGS. A roguelite is a roguelite and a roguelike is a roguelike. Simple as. Turn around, pack your bags, head home, and STUDY the Berlin Interpretation, my meek student, for their are things you must learn.
@tob._. typed an absurdly long aggressively witty response but it looks like youtube couldn't handle my overwhelming flair, so you'll just have to believe me. google berlin interpretation and comprehend the bane on thought that the dilution of meaningful terminology is. y/n on metaprogression is not a meaningful distinction and is something contrived during the post-mortem of "roguelike"'s meaning within collective thought. Even then, I continue to fight. Continue to wage a war in the name of language and meaningful discussion. I truly am a MORAL PARAGON. GAHAHAHAHA!
Enter the Gungeon and Slay the Spire are roguelikes. Roguelites is when you can get meta progress that makes the games easier. In those games your just unlocking more guns/playable characters/cards?(haven’t only a couple hours in slay the spire). These don’t make the game easier but just add MORE.
all the games played here are technically roguelites in some capacity since there is some sort of permanent progression and unlocks in each of them. a true roguelike has no progression between runs just like the original rouge. neither of us have personally played many traditional roguelikes but maybe we'll have to check them out in another video.
So called “pro rougelike gamer” doesn’t even know proper joker arrangement like why are you copying dna with blue print after its first and only use per blind. Like come on if your gonna gloatingly say your pretty good at a game make sure you have proper skills first. The balatro mafia will be hearing about this
NAH I JUST SAW YOUR HOUR COUNT I WAS THINKING “kinda weird to call yourself pretty good with only 45 hours but understandable to not know proper placements” i was trying to exaggerate my anger for humor. BUT YOU HAVE 485 HOURS YOU HAVE NO EXCUSE YOUR JUST DUMB
"How did you play so fast?"
"Because I started with the Egyptians witch gives a +10% to mining speed-"
BAHAHAHHA classic mate
Claims to be great at roguelites, dies on the first stage of RoR2........judgment has been cast
He literally said he wasn't good at Ror2 but ok...
@@Yuraxa not skipping antes in a speedrun is also a mistake
They sucked ass at every game it was pretty funny, 200+ hours too... still a fun watch
Which punishment should he get
@jeao7115 when he got to hades I commended him for besting tisiphone (in my opinion) the easiest of the sisters somewhat quickly but dying to the minotuar by himself is simply a lack of akill in my opinion. He's a slower boss but easy to no hit if cautious
I feel like this challenge would be much more interesting if the person who didn't pick the game got to pick the character/weapon/deck that both players have to play as.
like to see that too but it might make it a challenge run rather than a speed run imo

Genius Thumbnail, I LOVE it
thanks!
I was waiting for bro to pull out the gunslinger when he challenged you to gungeon.

new and up coming youtuber fr
have you played Synthetik yet? if you do another one of these you should throw it in there!
Honestly made me want to play some of the other roguelikes gathering dust in my library due to my crippling Isaac addiction
Me core
I love the concept here! Keep with the good videos :)
i really liked this vid you should do a part 2
Rob cool as hell
Hell yeah he is
great video man! i cant tell you how shocked i was when i saw you only have 900 subs, definitely tuning in for more :)
Hey nice video man!
I would love a timer on each game, I do not fully appreciate the speed you are playing these without one
WHY would you not pick plasma deck in this format💀💀
yeah this dudes pretty shit at most of these lol
Becuase they are not good at games, did u saw the hades gameplay 💀
Really good video, you definitely have potential. I also was planning on making my username petrichor for a while but I guess you got it first.
"I guess" he won...
Fun vid. I personally think Enter the Gungeon looks sick, as well as Hades. But cannot play either on my shitty laptop. 😢
lovely video, didnt know wtf was going on in the first game but anyways. would love to see The Binding Of Isaac Rebirth and Darkest Dungeon 2 (since DD2 is more rougelike compared to DD1 with their seperate runs).
will keep that in mind for part 2. thanks!
I hope you make more videos like this one
Ok now i need to do this. I just need a friend who plays roguelikes xD
nice video! wouldn't mind this becoming a series! especially since there are more then enough Rogue-likes/lites(dead cells and tboi for example.).

good competition betwezen friends but not fair .... start with new seed for every game or some unlockable due to roguelike make the game not balance
Watching this has me itching to play some rogue likes, i haven't touched the games in so long
watching you two play hades was so painful, I just got the game and made it past boss 3 (Theseus and Minotaur) with one death defiance and less health
How’d you do that? It took me about 20-30 attempts after I got the game and about 2 death defiances to beat Theseus
This was such an enjoyable video i loved it
Gonna keep it real, that intro went super fast that I couldn’t catch up lol.
But the energy of the video was exciting and super engaging 😊
Play more Gungeon!! Truly a gem of a rougelite
“Im pretty good at roguelikes” *Drops the middest stats I have ever seen*
It’s has finally been revealed who the better gamer is
People talking shit in the comments would also have sub optimal gameplay if they got asked to play a random roguelike in their library
8/10 decent performance. Maybe next time you will win 😉 Great video dude
No tboi is lowkey kinda crazy
i watched this and then realized u only have 1k subs this is some quality man keep it up
Not picking watcher for a speedrun is crazy
My thoughts exactly. I saw that ascension, bro clearly is not inexperienced with Watcher
Didn't know Oscar Piastri was such a GAMER 😂
intro: we do one run, whoever does better wins
literal first minute: as many runs as it takes, whoever wins first
Well to be fair it was Balatro
Spelunky 2 race to 7-99. The roguelike challenge to rule them all.
Only 131 subs damn really just found a diamond in the rough
Saw this video pop up on my for you page on RUclips and you’re really funny and then I saw your sub count and said wow I found a hidden gem! Also fuck balatro some times it hates me I swear 😂😂
Bro I can’t believe you have less than 1000 subs
what do u think abt mortal sin (its rlly good)
next time you should get him to just record the game audio so you can layer your own voice audio and doesnt get scuffed like this :p ( im assuming thats why you switched the voice audio when on his pov so we can hear the game ). also would be big cool if you put in time stamps for games
I’m waiting quietly for the 100k view mark to be hit
Ware is my boy Isaac?
oh shit you only have 250 subs? this is like 2k sub quality, keep it up
Thanks!
Such a fun video!

no isaac???
great video brother
aint no way you said epic sauced unironically

claims hes good at roguelikes, proceeds to die in every game except one
Does Rob have a youtube channel?
How can i get the among us card in balatro?
TBOI for the next video :)
I thought you had like 50k subs but then i look down i see 905
Maybe do same seeds so luck is less of a factor
really cool video
BALATROOOOOOOO
he got berted
Really good video
Nah, we need a run back where y'all have actual stuff in Gungeon and play on the hardest difficulty in the games. Pretty good vodeo though
These should be on the same seed
You look like Stu Mackenzie (woo)
Where is the binding of isaac?
This guy has 192 subs and gained 20k views :D
nice voice
Wow great video!!!
Ngl, with this format, the person that starts with a win is screwed, cuz the one that starts with a loss has 1 more chance to choose a game they are good at
Great vid for a small channel. Though hades is definitely not a rogue like.
its an action rougelike / roguelite if you want to be pedantic
It follows a very rougelike structure. Randomly seeded rooms items and shops. A little bit of boss variation. Technically is a rougelike or rougelite despite probably being the least rougelike like game on here
It's one of the crappiest roguelikes, but it is still roguelike (and a good visual novel)
@@shahid7566 it’s an amazing rogue like what the hell 🤣

all these Rougelikes and no binding of isaac? rip

Ror2 part was dissappointing just did the frst tele and died then moved on. Rest of the video was fun
