This is the first time I've seen RUclips Premium get a sponsorship
No but good video
I didn't think youtube even did sponsors, but congrats on getting a literal youtube sponsor!
Wtf is wrong with you
adblocker is free and just as effective
There's something very dissonant feeling about watching a video on a YT Preem account that has an ad about using YTPr to avoid watching ads.
use SponsorBlock. And also Ublock or similar instead of Premium but that's another story.
That's because YT is causing a problem and selling a solution
Almost like my QR reader giving me an ad of a QR reader (most of the time being *itself*)
Not that i have YT Premium, adblockers are the best, but still.
I misread that as using YTPs to avoid watching ads. Somehow.
Hooray for meaningfully supporting creators! RUclips Premium is the best.
ive never seen anyone gett sponsored by youtube themselves, but i cant think of anyone more deserving tbh
Same. :)
Hitler? He probably supports extortion via advertisements too.
I've seen few today
You have seen anyone sponsored by YTP because it’s a new sponsor. It doesn’t mean shit.
Give it a few days. Everyone will have it… just like better help and fum and magic spoon, every YT channel always has the same sponsors. Sorry but game champ isn’t as special as you think.
@@DOC_951Chill out dude, jesus.
Excuse me, what's this? Not one, but *TWO* episodes of my favorite online Internet video game TV show, in one month?!?! Now that's a pleasant surprise!
A surprise, to be sure, but a welcome one.
Tv show? It’s a RUclips channel like the millions of other millions of RUclips channels.
Heads up because she finished Rockman 5 hitless in her second day so you have that coming soon.
Three now
The fact that doing nothing during clank's turret sections is a genuine speedrun strat as it returns player control to the ship early is amazing
Someone should try to catalogue all the games/speedrun categories where „doing nothing“ is considered the optimal strategy.
Just off the top of my head, there’s…
Link staring at a rupee for 17 hours.
The Hunter setting up shop on Zorah Magdaros‘ shell.
Wolf getting swallowed by the Great White Snake.
Sora turning his gummi ship into a donut.
The Two Worlds speedrun where you coax the final boss into getting defeated by a bunch of villagers.
Then there’s the secret ending of Far Cry 4 (but there waiting around is literally the intended/only way of getting it, so I don’t know if it really counts).
And I wouldn’t be surprised if there was a Mario 64 category where you have to do that as well. Maybe it’s a necessary step when trying to travel between parallel universes, who knows.
@@KeDe1606iirc the no A-button challenge has a strat in certain versions of Mario 64 where you wait on a moving platform for several irl days bc there's a misalignment in the way the game calculates smth which causes it to VERY slowly inch upwards infinitely
@@KeDe1606Ratchet 3 and Deadlocked have this. Mission 4 of Marcadia in UYA is simply hanging on a ledge or clipping into a platform and waiting for 2 minutes (this is now completely skipped in the NG+ categories), and ratchet deadlocked has a mission on the vindicator tournament where we go out of bounds and wait, so that some bombs don't drop on us.
Formerly, in Ratchet Going Commando, the way we defeated the snivelak boss is by standing in place and holding down circle to use the sheepinator (we also did this on the mutant protopet in any% but that was obsoleted several years ago).
In Crash Bandicoot 2/3, you can let Crash bounce on a box a few hundred times, do some difficult movement, and it gives you crystals to indicate the completion of every level in the game.
@@KeDe1606Celeste has one where if you wait for a stupid amount of time spike hitboxes get disabled
@@thenightwriter619 you recall almost correctly, but the moving platforms don’t inch up infinitely, but only towards the y-coordinate 0, which happens to be above the starting area of the level.
Fun fact: the lattes are actually mandatory for all of these challenge runs. They are the source of Ms. Gamerchamp’s power; with each sip, she gets stronger.
They also boost her Special Ability: Bad at Games
They're her supposedly optional powerup collectible that is not actually optional if you want to 100% the challenge!
That only means they're mandatory for Miss Gamerchamp, I'd probably be fine substituting w/ hot chocolate or potatoes.
Assuming I was good enough at video games.
Damn right lattes are everyones powerup
@@pendingchange3776 No, I don't like coffee.
Hi, I'm calling about your "press the fire button to use your currently selected weapon" insurance
There's something Poetic about Ratchet singlehandedly destroying Tachyon with what we now know is an extremely common weapon for Lombaxes specifically (see, A Crack In Time)
I am a time traveler from the year 2040 to tell you that Gamechamp has just uploaded her video of Rift Apart with only the wrench
There's a good chance she'll catch up with the series in a year or two
I am SO READY FOR THAT!
seriously BRING IT FASTER GAMECHAMP!
@@segadoeswhatnintendont You might be surprised how many games are left
Quest for Booty
A Crack in Time
All 4 One
Full Frontal Assault/Q-Force
Nexus
2016
Rift Apart
We're also missing Going Mobile, but I somehow doubt that'll happen XD
@@kev1nnoand the movie
Well, she'll probably need to use the hammer too!
Fun fact: I love this series so much that while playing Rift Apart I couldn't stop looking at each encounter and thinking about how it might challenge the wrench run.
I can't wait to hear you explain how Rivet's hammer is legally a wrench. :)
"can you beat rachet and clank: rift apart with only the [metal melee weapon commonly used as a household tool]"
Golden bolt rewards include cosmetics for melee weapons, including replacing hammer with wrench.
The latte count has been updated to 37 (including 1 small, 1 to-go, 1 large, 4 implied, 1 awaiting the heat death of the universe and 1 for Wire fans). Following along with all videos would now cost you $134.85 at Starbucks. That's 5 lattes in this video alone! That's probably a record, but I'm not going back through the archive to check.
I loved how much cheese there was in this run. Thanks for another great video, Miss Gamerchamp!😁
Edit: Somehow despite being subscribed and ringing that bell, I missed the Sonic 1 & Knuckles video. +1 implied latte!
More if you're bad at Sonic 2 & Knuckles.
@@timothymclean well, 37 for the minimalist caffeinated challenge
But we ain't doing Starbucks 😎
I'm starting to doubt Ms. Champ's claims that she's bad at video games.
This woman beat a Pokémon game without taking any damage.
She's only good at playing them wrong.
I think that’s the joke at this point.
She's bad at playing games the way the devs intended.
It was never a particularly good joke.
Good upload timing, I literally just opened my browser to watch RUclips.
By the way:
Remember to press the fire button to use your currently selected weapon.
Remember to press the fire button to use your currently selected weapon
Remember to press the fire button use your currently selected weapon.
Remember to press the Fire Button to do a bunch of unrelated things that probably do nothing
Remember to press the fir button to use your currently selected tree.
Remember to button your currently selected weapon to use the fire press
i have never felt more betrayed than watching a youtube premium ad using youtube premium
28:22 that tool of destruction is of course 7 gallons of latte
Imagine paying to watch RUclips and not just getting violently angry for 20 seconds every 15 minutes
may i reccommend ublock origin (for PC), newpipe (for android), or a web browser which blocks ads (for iOS)?
It's wild that RUclips is willing to stoop so low, in an effort to force viewers into watching ads, that they'd actually pay their RUclipsrs.
"Cronk and Zephyr are immortal"
Ratchet and Clank Into the Nexus: *whistles*
I tried this challenge... Starbucks was really confused when I would come in every couple hours for a latte. They never did spell my name right either.
Wowie Zowie!! Gee willikers this is nifty! Thanks Ms. Champ!
Great googily moogily
*jaw drops to floor* Zippity doo da! Another wacky vid by epic gamer pog champ? Well butter my buscuits!
Good golly! This video is fandiddiky-cool!
There’s something so alien to me about watching an ad about RUclips premium, of all things. I can’t quite put my finger on it, it just came at me like a truck when they paused and started talking about RUclips premium.
Get ready for every channel to have YTP ads in the next several weeks to come. That’s how it works
@@DOC_951 Cool. (Sips latte while looking at the ABP icon on top of my screen.)
it's so they can advertise YTP to people that have adblock on probably
Try as he might, Ratchet could not breathe under the currently selected weapon.
I actually remember doing this challenge way back when you released the deadlock or whatever the other game was called.
I remember beating the turret in the ceiling by using the boots boost and the ground pounding into it.
My game was beyond scratched at the time, so idk if it works in actual games, but it was pretty easy when I did it.
8:08 Clank Stepping In Luigi's Shoes & Wining By Doing Absolutely Nothing
Would love to see a contest between the two to see who’s better at doing absolutely nothing
YOOOOOO I've been binging the VG Myths playlist again for the past couple days and I'm just on the train on my *last* legs a week back into work post-COVID, so this is quite literally perfect timing.
Thank you Miss Champ! Can't wait to see how well the Crack in Time video goes 5 years from now. I'm gonna make sure I don't miss it by double clicking both the subscribe button and the RUclips Premium button!
The ratchet and clank games are one of my favourite series to give a nostalgic playthrough every couple years. I’m super happy to see you are continuing. The trend of wrench only and cannot wait for the challenge to reach my favourite game; Crack in Time
The only tool of destruction Ratchet needs is his trusty wrench
This is so cool for me to see, I did my own wrench only run of the game forever ago but stopped right after beating the mecha mole so seeing this video exist makes me so happy. You’ve inspired me to try being bad at many video games over the years and it’s truly incredible to see something I tried to do over a year ago be done by the very person who inspired me to do it
You don't even need Leviathan Souls for the Apogee Space Station, believe it or not. There's a hilarious oversight where the Turrets guarding the space station are unloaded as soon as they're not visible, and in normal play it slowly becomes obvious as the turrets get less synchronized. You can just wait until the turrets get behind the station, then safely hover down to the elevator to continue.
1:48 TELL THAT TO THE SONIC 1 & KNUCKLES RUN WHICH HAS A REALLY GOOD BIT INVOLVING AN ADVERTISEMENT
Ah, my first Rachet and Clank game. So many good memories...
Now let's watch a maniac bastardize the hell of it! 🎉
It is so convenient you posted this video AS I was playing Tools of Destruction again after 8+ years!
LET'S GOOOO MORE RACHET AND CLANK VG MYTHS🗣️🗣️🗣️🦅🦅🔥🦅🦅🔥🔥
Can't wait to see Ratchet and Clank A Crack in Time Next!
This is honestly one of my favourites in the series. Thank you for doing it. Looking forward to Crack in Time.
I love how throwing the fight by jumping into lava just turned out to be a pro-level strat
Finally, waited a long time for this, cant wait for the others.
I'm a big fan of A Giant Menacing Energy Creature Of Some Sort
I kid you not I've been waiting for this episode ever since I found your channel years ago. I'm so excited
"Press the fire button to use your currently selected weapon" has the same energy as "Come and buy a Pixeliser!"
Has anyone ever told you that you have a soothing voice? I ended up taking a nap listening to this.
been looking forward to this ever since the shenanigans promised during the strem - and this did NOT disappoint!
RUclips? That obscure website Google bought back i 2006?
I didn't know it was still around
GOAT SERIES HAS RETURNED
Your videos got me through some really hard times. I just came back after years and they are as great as always. I love you and your content. 🙂🙂
A Giant Menacing Energy Creature of Some Sort is my new favorite Ratchet and Clank character.
I remember doing this challenge myself and posting updates on Twitter, and said it was impossible because of the the last three Gunships in Kortog being out of reach.
As well as the ceiling Fusion Turret in The Apogee Space Station and Ublik Passage as impossible because of the Hanging Pirate Rouge and the Airship section. This video taught me about how it's possible to actually clear them! So thanks! For fully completing what I couldn't.
Side note there's another way to skip the Hanging Pirate Rouge on the Kreeli Comet, you can use the Charge Boots to quickly cross the bridge before the Hanging Pirate Rouge takes it out.
Good Video!
Been a super long time since I’ve seen one of your videos and forgot how amazing you are as a content creator!! Keep those challenges going miss champ!!
I’ve never seen a RUclips Premium ad before! Hell yeah, get that (literal) RUclips money
Fan fact, when revisiting Fastoon in NG+, the guide tutorial voices won't play since you presumably know what you're doing if you're playing the game again. But that voice is also used to tell you you got a message from someone inviting you to the tournament, except it doesn't play in NG+. Which leads to "Finnegan O'Qwarksalot!" being shouted at you from nowhere while you're walking to grab one of the ship parts. :p
I always love it whenever you upload. You just keep proving your lack of being bad at videogames.
The wrench only run series returns with my first/favorite because of nostalgia, Ratchet game, nice. >:]
1:16 while i'd like to support you
Over my dead body will i use youtube premium
haven’t seen youtube sponsor one of their own creators before
Man, I haven’t played this game in at LEAST a decade. This video really brings me back
I think I will use the fire button to use my currently selected weapon.
To be fair, Gamechamp is legally a tool of destruction
I just want to say Ms Gamechamp, you are my hero and my favorite challenge runner on the internet! Keep being awesome (and much better at games than me)! :3
Wow was that a long promotion
I did not expected you to continue the serie ! That's very cool
This is my favorite ratchet & clank game (of the 2 I’ve played) so I’m hyped that you’re doing this
its been a long time for this and im glad its back
Tealgamemaster beat that one turret (eventually) by just ramming it with his thruster pack. Apparently that deals damage?
Love your work Ms. Gamerchamp, but I swear, I feel like I’ve seen this exact video somewhere before. I have no evidence to back this up, and I could have just had a vision in my sleep (does anyone else get that?) of this video, but it’s weird regardless. Keep up the great work!
Ain't no way you got sponsored by RUclips on RUclips, I can't even control myself right as I flatline from this.
Ratchet and Clank: Singular Tool of Destruction
Ive been wating for this video since your first Wrench only run
FINALLY
AFTER ALL THESE YEARS
THE VERY FIRST GAME IVE PLAYED
GETS SOME SCREENTIME
Oh it’s a good day when there is a game champ upload ❤
Huh, I've had RUclips Premium for a while now, but I didn't know that that gets the creators a bigger cut than ads. Nice to know and good for my conscience. :)
I think they wanted you to press the fire button to use your currently selected weapon.
Glad to see more Wrench only Rachet and Clank challenge videos!
Two VGMyths videos in one month? Fuck yeah!!!!!!! Love every video :)
finally new ratchet and clank vid
Can’t wait to see all for one with only wrench.
Been waiting 100 years for another Ratchet video :)
Nice to see another run
Was in two minds about watching because I got this game on my to-do list with all the other Ratchet and Clank games, but her videos are so good I cannot resist.
I remember catching the final battle of this run and it was awesome glad I can finally see the run complete
Oh boy its champin' time, now to beat robots (people?) to death with blunt objects!!!
precure splash star is a masterpiece
This guy’s voice seems well suited for telling people to keep their arms, hands, feet, and legs inside of the car at all times.
13:00 there actually IS a Gelenator Pad on the Nunac Asteroid Ring that you could have used.
15:05 how did you beat the Pirate Boss tho?
15:50 dont tell Into The Nexus that....
26:00 how did you destroy the Drophyd enforcers?
28:30 noice!
2:19 Best live-action Gundam show
I'm already watching videos ad-free, despite youtube's best efforts
A Giant Menacing Energy Creature Of Some Sort for Smash
I love that the A is part of A Giant Menacing Energy Creature Of Some Sort's name.
Also known as the "AGMECOS".
Good morning and welcome back to VG Myths, the online internet video game TV show that *is* the wrench in the works.
How I've waited to hear those words, my friend... how I've waited...
Perfect content for my lunch break!
As a vaguely proud Premium owner, it makes me happy to know I'm binging all of your videos over and over the right way!
As someone who loves your channel (YES THE YU-GI-OH ONES TOO, I'D PAY YOU TO MAKE THEM BUT I'M BROKE) and has never played Ratchet and Clank the "giant menacing energy creature of some sort" made me laugh far more than it should have.
Thanks so much for these videos. They never fail to put a smile on my face.
Great video Ms. Champ! This was a run I was waiting for for a long time, so seeing this pop up on my feed was quite the welcome surprise!
I actually speedrun this game, so if you don't mind, I'd like to provide you with some good news, and notes from the challenge based on how speedrunners tackle this game!
- For the speedrun category extension Wrench Only, we actually do allow the use of Devices, namely the Groovitron and Visicopters for the purposes of doing tricks later in the run, so long as the weapon doesn't do damage to an enemy when used. That's our workaround in terms of semantics.
- The good news is that your bonus challenge is actually a full success! There does exist a method to outright skip Voron, Rakar, and Verdigris and their accompanying bosses.
- Nundac actually doesn't need the souls either too! There's a trick that you can do involving simply a high jump off of Aphelion that you can aim at the station entrance. The roof turret as well can also get hit by a very specific hyperstrike as well too, which makes it slightly easier though still obnoxious
- When fighting the Giant Massive Energy Creature of Some Sort , aka Zorthan, that quick kill is actually how every speedrun kills him funny enough.
- Going off the Zorthan example, there's actually a lot of enemies throughout the entire series that die when touching hazardous terrain themselves. Zorthan is just one of the more common ways to see it in action. The craziest example of this is Dino Grind on Sargasso, where the Groovitron can be used to put one of the Grunthors in a state where you can actually push the enemy. Pushing one into the mud in such a way that they get stuck is actually basically a power-grinding method for bolts/exp.
Currently, KillaLombax holds the Wrench Only WR. In terms of a speedrun, it's actually one of the hardest of the WO's to do fast. Most of the tricks and skips that were mentioned here are used either in Wrench Only itself, or in most of the main categories that see runner activity.
Literally every time I binge gamechamp videos a new one spawns
Huh I was just marathoning the older vids so this is a welcome surprise!
I love these they always make my day
I never bet this game as a kid, and it still hunts me 😭
That what I’ve been waiting for
Gamechamp has such a soothing voice. I listen to these on repeat even got me into playing KH.
The return of the Queen!
Mate, It's an absolute blast whenever you upload a video.
Hope you're doing mighty fine, and keep up being awesome!
I can't believe we're finally seeing this. I'm so happy
Best video to watch before bed
