My favorite part of all of these videos is always the inevitable part where the speedrunners decide to cast off twin galaxies and see what’s possible with glitches
Honestly. Love how they come together and break these 'rules' for the improvement of the community as a whole. And I mean, if the whole community ends up accepting something, there's nothing Twin Galaxies was able to do.
Imo what makes the difference between a speedrun run and a casual run by a really good player is the glitches. Without them it’s just playing the game well, and that’s pretty boring
Twin galaxy's would of made speed running dead and buried with they're shitty biusneas practices, letting 38 year old nobody's get away with fake world records cause they've just been claiming them for long enough
@@pedlar6839 that might actually work. "It takes me 100.000 frames to bang your wife. So no matter if you get home from work at the end of the bang, or 95.000 frames later, your wife is already banged, so unless you can come home 100.001 frames earlier, it doesn't make a difference, the bang-rule has already started."
AndrewG ist that one character that comes back into the sequel, 70 minutes in, camera focussed on his shadow entering the saloon, saying "did you miss me?" - then the screen fades to black with that cliffhanger
Andrew G is the type of guy that can heat 4 minute instant noodles in 3 minutes by disconnecting and connecting the microwave for a frame perfect time save that comes every 256 frames.
I love how every one of these histories has a part that's like "and then..... he began researching tricks that were previously considered TAS-only" as though it's the story of a rogue wizard delving into the forbidden texts in search of ancient demonic speedrunning power.
I love video game terminology. You'll never hear someone just say: "Yeah, I was going for an early vegetable cycle, but missed it, so my Wart was slower."
By far my favorite example of this: "Time is on marmalade," because at the end of one of the Katamari games, that weird space dude says "Marmalade!" and that's when they stop the timer.

I was honestly just waiting till they show a game-breaking warp glitch to the victory screen to save another *7* minutes. I must say, I'm glad it didn't happen here. I love it when they still have to resort to just implement insanely hard tricks/glitches in order to just save like 1-2 seconds in a speedrun - in any game :D
A couple of other RUclipsrs have tried to use Mr. Salt's style of music and storytelling for themselves and failed horribly. I saw one Runescape channel literally use Home with the same opening style of commentary and everybody just DUMPSTERED him in the comment section calling him a copycat and a piece of shit lmao. He never tried to do it again
Funny enough, I first heard it from a AE86 car video that came out a year before Salt started using it. So I kept calling the HOME song the 86 song lol
@@lawrencebermudez I mean, that works because it's a parody. Parodying Salt without HOME music just isn't a good parody. The problem is replicating it without a hint of irony or awareness that you're just copying someone else's style for yourself.
This is the first video game I ever played, when I was about 7 years old. My grandpa bought me a GBA for my birthday. Before then I had literally never heard of video games (very sheltered family) so understandably my mind was completely blown. I played the remastered Super Mario Advance, the only game I had, for countless hours. I have so much nostalgia connected to this game I have to stop myself from typing forever. I’ll keep it at least somewhat brief and say thanks for this video, it unlocked a nostalgia door in my brain & inspired me to dig up my old Gameboy
Yoooo it's Genghis Juan! Fr I love when I see melee figures interested in other stuff I already thought was cool, and Summoning Salt deserves all the attention for sure.
Nothing major was found to the best of my knowledge (I watched most of CK's grinds back then). If you look at the WR history post this video the time saves were mostly just fractions of a second. The biggest new change to the route I recall is that he started implementing zombie rocket in 7-1 to catch a particular Birdo pattern that allowed for a very fast kill, saving usually a full second. @@femain1788
"He needed to save time in 7-1. In order to do this he attempted a trick known as 'fast 7-1'." Your videos are always phenomenal. I'm in quarantine atm so rewatching all your classics.
@@plasmaoctopus1728 The bus analogy is just overdone. It's a good one but with how many creators cover speedruns with frame rules we've all heard the bus a few times
Even though it's a joke, I still say someone forgot the elementary English lessons of time sense. "Was" with the knowledge of the time, rather than "is" with our 2021 knowledge, or "could be" if we get some new TAS Only 2025 glitches
34:58 holy crap is that VirtualDub??? 😲 I used to use that software to edit videos and frame sequences back in 2011-12, but I haven't seen it since then!
The effort put into these videos makes me want to cry, when I hear that intro I just can’t hold myself back from smiling. Please never stop making videos, you make me so happy
August 2021 Update: IluvMario and COOLKID continued to rival in competing for the Mario 2 World Record. Not so soon after Salt’s video on this released, IluvMario beat COOLKIDS 8:16 with a 15. It stood there for a bit until recently, COOLKID came BACK again and dropped it to a 8:13 . A whole 2 seconds lower. And that’s where it stands as of when I commented this lol.
Honestly from watching the video at the end I came to the conclusion that currently 8:13 was as low as you could get but I'm glad I read this comment for an update on that thank you
@@Rafterz it’s a I-ii-IV-iv in D major, commonly called a minor plagal cadence. Going from the major IV to the minor IV (the latter not being in the same key; it’s borrowed from the parallel minor) is what gives it its effect. One of my favorite resolutions, for sure. The ascension of the melody from the 5th to the 6th to add a bit of extra tension before resolving back to Dmajor is also a nice touch.
@@dawnbreaker2912 it's not a car it's a bus. Basically, the joke is that a *very* overused analogy to explain the framerule system is comparing it to a bus schedule, so they've been coming up with circumlocutions to say "bus" instead of repeating the exact same thing in every video
39:30 "Even 13th place in the coveted Pringles All A’s % on the Sega Genesis." This is the humor we need right now and why I keep coming back to watch your videos :)
18:30 is my favorite part. The music, the footage, even the saved time managed to give me major goosebumps of pleasure and fear that he did all that without cheats...
"Instead of carefully placing the potion on top of the vase *shows footage of Toad slamming the potion on top of the vase at the first possible moment after it wouldn't hit the side*"

Playing this every night with my father before bed in 1988 & 1989, I remember the first time we beat Wart. I was 5 and it was one of the best memories I have with my Dad. Watching these speed run breakdowns is something he would have found so incredible interesting! Video games are more than just pixels, they are living memories and tributes.
I love his opening music, it comforts me and reminds me of an era of which I've never experienced. Its a very safe song and fits every video like a glove.
Summoning Salt, I have loved literally every single one of your History of World Records Series. I hope you don't ever stop making this series. It has been very informative to me, and my circle of friends. Keep up the amazing work, and don't let anything get you down.

But...
With that name, he got the WR by default.
"The perfect run should theoretically save 6 seconds"

HAHAHAH EXACTLY MY THOUGHTS
I was honestly just waiting till they show a game-breaking warp glitch to the victory screen to save another *7* minutes. I must say, I'm glad it didn't happen here.
I love it when they still have to resort to just implement insanely hard tricks/glitches in order to just save like 1-2 seconds in a speedrun - in any game :D

I love how now everyone associates that song with this channel
A couple of other RUclipsrs have tried to use Mr. Salt's style of music and storytelling for themselves and failed horribly. I saw one Runescape channel literally use Home with the same opening style of commentary and everybody just DUMPSTERED him in the comment section calling him a copycat and a piece of shit lmao. He never tried to do it again
@@giggusmaximus2167 well it worked well for speedrun parodying, with the American Dad speedrun joke
Funny enough, I first heard it from a AE86 car video that came out a year before Salt started using it. So I kept calling the HOME song the 86 song lol
@@lawrencebermudez I mean, that works because it's a parody. Parodying Salt without HOME music just isn't a good parody. The problem is replicating it without a hint of irony or awareness that you're just copying someone else's style for yourself.
I associate it with this channel and EmpLemon
This is the first video game I ever played, when I was about 7 years old. My grandpa bought me a GBA for my birthday. Before then I had literally never heard of video games (very sheltered family) so understandably my mind was completely blown. I played the remastered Super Mario Advance, the only game I had, for countless hours. I have so much nostalgia connected to this game I have to stop myself from typing forever. I’ll keep it at least somewhat brief and say thanks for this video, it unlocked a nostalgia door in my brain & inspired me to dig up my old Gameboy
While it wasn’t my first Video Game, GBA ver. Super Mario World was incredible as a kid.
I still haven’t been able to beat Boswer. 💀
Not sure what saddens me more, "there is no footage of this run today," or "and that's where the run stands today"
The first one. You can fix the second one
"and that's where the run stands today" is far worse, that means you will have to wait several months for another summoning salt video!
The second one because it means the story has ended until a long, indefinite time later

Finally a guide to beating this year’s game of the year.
I see you're a fellow dunkey connoisseur
We don't know that it's game of the year yet.
As of now January 2023, the world record stands at 8m 11s 590ms set by the swedish player COOLKID over a year ago!
Some major changes or glitch must have been found. A 5 second drop in the record is too big for just some cleaner play. I wonder what they found
That's insane
@@femain1788I kinda want Summoning Salt to make an update on several of their speedrun history videos, including this one.
Nothing major was found to the best of my knowledge (I watched most of CK's grinds back then). If you look at the WR history post this video the time saves were mostly just fractions of a second. The biggest new change to the route I recall is that he started implementing zombie rocket in 7-1 to catch a particular Birdo pattern that allowed for a very fast kill, saving usually a full second. @@femain1788
The entire time I expected Matt Turk to show up and clean house with a record
Matt Turk simply allows others to have world records.
I was expecting Matt turk to come up anytime, legend
It will be funnier if Matt Turk beat smb2 with punch out kid.

I never get sick of Summoning Salt using this joke.
@@zandert33 It's all in the delivery. :D
Coolkid lives up to his name. Genuinely one of the chillest people in speedrunning
“You fool! I was an egg cycle ahead of you this whole time!”
To be fair if I was holding a cobra over my head I would have an increased sense of urgency too
“Unbeatable Record” always seems like the biggest lie after seeing enough of these videos
I think it just always motivates the maniac speedrunners that aim to beat the “unbeatable”
Yeah... it's a massive claim that has almost never actually been true
That's why the appeal to future knowledge is a logical fallacy!
At this point, watching this series is like:
Salt: An unbreakable world record,
Me: Yeah, okay, for how long?
Never gets old how it happens
@@waverazor Neither do the records.
Finally made it under the first hour.
Yo, it's Gimr himself! I love your content, and wish you a merry 2021!
Didn't realize the GimZ did speedruns of SMB2
You finally got that sub 1 hour run. Congrats!

"He needed to save time in 7-1. In order to do this he attempted a trick known as 'fast 7-1'."
Your videos are always phenomenal. I'm in quarantine atm so rewatching all your classics.
I love how the bus analogy has become so well known, he doesn’t even need to name it.
Yet everyone knows exactly what he is saying.
ikr, I think Darbian is the most famous speedrunner ever simply bc of the Bus Analogy
what is a bus? i only know of *4 Wheeled vehicle of transportation*
@@mulraf bus is how you speedrun the 4 wheel vehicle of transportation.
“Now, imagine a two bicycles with a floor, walls and roof”
Bicycle house
"Imagine a delivery boy riding a bicycle with a cargo trailer. He makes deliveries at a certain stop every 64 frames..."
I forget why does he intentionally avoid using a "bus" as the analogy?
@@plasmaoctopus1728 The bus analogy is just overdone. It's a good one but with how many creators cover speedruns with frame rules we've all heard the bus a few times
@@pentelegomenon1175 lmaooo
to be fair, if i were 4 frames off a world record in a prestigious game i’d quit too
@@trash-lol sounds like some first world problems right there
No one knows who you are schizo
@@trash-lol nobody knows you shut up and stop yelling like a child
I'd do the same lmao
Can relate
it's always nicer when harder tricks are in the first level rather than the last
What’s even worse is when there is RNG right at the end, like in Super Mario Bros. 3
Every Summoning Salt video- “this run was as close to perfection as it could get” Me- “ then why is there 30 minutes left of the video 🤣
Yep
Plot twists go brrr
Even though it's a joke, I still say someone forgot the elementary English lessons of time sense. "Was" with the knowledge of the time, rather than "is" with our 2021 knowledge, or "could be" if we get some new TAS Only 2025 glitches

Looking at the leaderboard, Scott Kessler’s run from a whopping 15 years ago stands at 40th place.

That's a fast horse carriage

34:58 holy crap is that VirtualDub??? 😲 I used to use that software to edit videos and frame sequences back in 2011-12, but I haven't seen it since then!
I had the exact same thought.
It's still the best for editing without recompressing videos
Kosmic used it to analize his SMB warpless wr run
why am I not even remotely surprised you would like these videos.
love your stuff btw
VirtualDub still rules imo
The effort put into these videos makes me want to cry, when I hear that intro I just can’t hold myself back from smiling. Please never stop making videos, you make me so happy
August 2021 Update:
IluvMario and COOLKID continued to rival in competing for the Mario 2 World Record. Not so soon after Salt’s video on this released, IluvMario beat COOLKIDS 8:16 with a 15. It stood there for a bit until recently, COOLKID came BACK again and dropped it to a 8:13 . A whole 2 seconds lower. And that’s where it stands as of when I commented this lol.
Honestly from watching the video at the end I came to the conclusion that currently 8:13 was as low as you could get but I'm glad I read this comment for an update on that thank you
@@Scornfull And it can possibly go to a 8:10 with the new fast rocket (if it's ever implemented/allowed)

Is it I - ii - IV - iv ? I know some theory but I'm not an expert on figuring it out lol
@@derekrequiem4359 me neither, but there is something about it how it resolves.
@@Rafterz it’s a I-ii-IV-iv in D major, commonly called a minor plagal cadence. Going from the major IV to the minor IV (the latter not being in the same key; it’s borrowed from the parallel minor) is what gives it its effect. One of my favorite resolutions, for sure. The ascension of the melody from the 5th to the 6th to add a bit of extra tension before resolving back to Dmajor is also a nice touch.
@@NoahOD_22 could you guys point out the minute/second when that progressions appears in the video?
“4 wheeled vehicle of transportation” lol he’s satirizing himself now, love it

The funniest part of the "four wheeled vehicle of transportation" goof is that some busses are six wheeled
Yeah, WTF is that? Why not just say "car"?
@@dawnbreaker2912 it's not a car it's a bus. Basically, the joke is that a *very* overused analogy to explain the framerule system is comparing it to a bus schedule, so they've been coming up with circumlocutions to say "bus" instead of repeating the exact same thing in every video
Pretty sure all buses have at least 6 wheels
39:30 "Even 13th place in the coveted Pringles All A’s % on the Sega Genesis." This is the humor we need right now and why I keep coming back to watch your videos :)
