At this past Awesome Games Done Quick, $1,025,000 was raised for the Prevent Cancer Foundation. It only took a week of continuous streaming, 18,000 donors, and many many runners to achieve. A big thanks to everyone responsible for these amazing numbers, what a humbling achievement. For comparison, last year's event raised just under $500,000.

- Garrison: best known runner
- Zoast: world record holder
- Krauser: most impressive trick gets most audience applause
- Ivan: wins
DragonDarch: Pause buffering cheep prick. Still really good.
iPlayDrums he wasn't in this race though
I know
FatesDecision
The way you belittle Ivan sickens me. Have a little more respect and class.
salozmen29 I didn't say a thing about Ivan except that he won the race. Every runner left with an accolade whether or not they had it before. Garrison and Zoast were much better known walking into this competition and were considered the best two runners, so the fact that Krauser was the runner who blew the audiences' mind and Ivan was the one to hit the ship first meant that it was the most exciting race anybody had ever seen. Does that clear up whatever confusion you had?
krauser has so much heart. he was behind for a majority of the race but he kept his head in the game and that giant metroid dodge was the most hype thing
Run starts at 17:42
snomaN Gaming YOU GOD!
DorianNES_ 1985 because copying the timestamp from the description and putting it in a comment is sooooo difficult...
Thank you
thanks man.. you are a hero
The commentator sounds like it's the Metroid olympics
6 years later, this is STILL one of the best gdq runs. Professional commentary, neck to neck gameplay, and a nail biter of a finish!
Shout Outs to me for falling asleep while watching the original stream and being VIOLENTLY WOKEN UP by the immense clapping and cheering that happened at the end of this run
my weirdest fondest memory
The crazy thing is that this run is only so good because of ALL the drama going on...Garrison gets emotional from fucking up and dying...Krauser gets the Super Metroid skip to make it close...Ivan and Zoast are essentially screen for screen for A WHILE NEAR THE FUCKING END OF A 45 MIN RUN...I mean, yea, add that all together, and this is superb
This is the great thing about speed-runs compared to say... pro-sports. Everyone is cheering for everyone. Everyone wants to see everyone succeed, no one wants to see anyone fail.
***** Sounds like a Papa Johns commercial!
EnigmaHood Racing is not like normal sports. Most running/racing communities are much like the gaming community in that they want to see others do well also. Think of marathon runners or complicated races like steeplechase. These guys will practice with opponents and even pace with their opponent and then congratulate them after a good race.
There are also the people who want to see others fail in the gaming community, mainly in shoot'em up games, like CoD, or really any competitive PvP; these guys are PvE.
That's also true... he's referring to mainly the fans.... who primarily look only at their own team. The players all usually have at least a fair bit of respect for each other. It's mainly the fans, who don't necessarily always appreciate the real challenge a sport or competition holds, that prefer to see only their side succeed.
Dude, this is a charity event.
I see the same kind of camaraderie in ultimate frisbee and crossfit. It's good sportsmanship at its absolute best.
I'd love to see a moment in a competitive speed run where someone accidentally discovers an neverbefore seen glitch or accidentally mashes their buttons in a way that does something new that no one has ever tried, the look on the player's face of disbelief where they're like "WTF??? HOW DID I DO THAT???" would be hilarious.
Caleb Reyna agree
Caleb Reyna in SM64, a twitch runner found a ground-breaking haven't been solved upward warp in TTC.
***** No it wasnt AGDQ.
Is that the one where a guy actually put a $1000 bounty out for anyone who can reproduce the glitch? Still hasn't been solved? Wow
Caleb Reyna yeah, it's amazing becuase it could change the meta.
man did I scream when krauser escaped the metroid
Lol. That was awesome for real.
Dodges for life!
Sameness
Incredible.
Sooo close!
Ivan: 45.36.12
Zoast: 45.36.79
spoilers
These guys have trained sickly many times.
Zoast just keep making mistakes
INCREDIBLE race.
Incredible.
one of the best races on AGDQ that i have seen!
Adrenalinaaa !!!
INCREDIBLE FUN
They played for forty-five minutes and it still came down to a photo finish. Unbelievable. I thought Ivan screwed the pooch when he overshot the ship's elevator, but his lead was barely large enough that it didn't matter.
I love how you can hear the blueglass laugh in the background of the crowd even though you can't see him. the best laugh.
man the odds of two guys beating a game that close apart in a competition has got to be pretty astranomical. That was amazing.
Never thought a videogame competition could be so intense. I lost my shit when Krauser managed to skip the baby Metroid and get a little bit closer to the other two.
If you liked this you should check out things like e-sports!
You mean like Dota and League tournaments? I find those boring.
I would gladly throw my money at them if they had retro games speed run competitions though.
Well then you should also throw your money at the PCF!
Jaysen Holmberg Indeed
Jaysen Holmberg Touché.
That was completely insane, a 46 minute race being closed with 0.5 second between 1st and 2nd place and 15 seconds later 3rd place comes in. That was simply the most amazing race I've ever seen.
This was so awesome to watch. Good commentators :)
They're making it sound like a game of football... except football is much more boring! lol
***** Significantly
***** yep 100/100 times
"HE HOLDS THE BALL, HOLDS IT SOME MORE, STILL HOLDS IT, HOLDS IT, HOLDS IT, HOLDS IT!!!!!!!!!!!!"
i thought you/he meant soccer. my mistake football is fine. soccer is ass and the joke is from the simpsons about soccer.
yeah they do, hold doesn't have to mean hands dunce.
This race is still one of the greatest moments in gaming, ever.
It brilliantly encapsulates all the best stuff about the medium/hobby.
Still come back to watch this every year. My 7-year old daughter watched with me this time, and was just going "Zoom zoom zoom" the entire time. My favorite Super Metroid race right here ^_^
Had to come back to watch it again after all these years. This race blew my mind back in 2014.
I've been playing this game since it came out when I was 5 years old. My original goal for this game was to be able to beat it fast enough to see Samus without her suit. I achieved it when I was around 8 or 9 years old. Eventually in my early teens I got my friend into the game, who destroyed me time wise. So I found a reason to play the game again to sharpen my rusted skills. I went from being able to beat the game in 1 hour 38 mins to beating it in 58mins. It's nowhere near the time these guys have. I'm just glad the spirit of the game and the competition lives on.
begins at 17:40
mason drummond you deserve my like good man
Acomplishments in 45 minutes: Speedrunners: Beat the game. Me: Just gets to Brinstar.
This run was definitely the highlight of the whole marathon, and really proved that the guys at AGDQ know how to put on a fantastic show. The tricks, the techniques, the commentary, the crowd, etc. were all practically perfect and it was a wonderful thing to watch (I've seen it about 4 times now!).
The only problem that has arisen from this is that they'll need to work their arses off to top this at an SGDQ or AGDQ in the future!
This shit is so fun. They're all fantastic runners. It's a shame Garrison didn't have the favor of the RNGods.
That said, he looked very stressed as well. It's got to be annoying having to continue on with a shitty run then just dying in front of everyone.
+Fukou da you mean RNGsus
Luck
Garri is a beast, he was the reason why I started watching SM runs. Krauser comforting him was a legend move.
Today is the 20th Anniversary of Super Metroid. Gotta watch this run out of respect!
I was lucky enough to catch this race live, and GODDAMN was I on the edge of my seat. Best run of the entire marathon =3
you lucky one :)) next time shout out an: all the best! from Master John! :D
57:46 followed by 58:13
This was a legendary moment, akin to Daigo going beast mode. That comeback.
Bro the smile on all the runners faces when Krauser hits the Metroid skip brings a smile to my face. Best community ever!
Wow. I never realized how amazing seeing a Super Metroid race is until stumbling upon this!
Wow. That was amazing. Competitive speedrunning needs to be the next e-sport.
Christopher Houser I'd rather watch this than any shitty FPS game an 8 year old can be good at.
Metroid dominated this 'GDQ! Between the amazing M:ZM hard low% and this, this marathon was so hype!
Sinister1 and Golden were really great commentators as well.
dang THIS was quite the run - so awesome!
Coolest thing I've seen relating to Super Metroid in a long time, if ever. I'm shocked at how fast that went.
This is my favorite game of all time, and I can't believe how edge of my seat I was for this. The last 5 minutes were ridiculous!
For me, this was the most Hype race ever run at a GDQ, besides super mario kart's literal photo finish.
the way it is commentated makes it feel so authentic, and you can literally feel the hype dripping through the stream, into your coffee mug.
this was seriously the coolest thing they've ever done at a GDQ event and that's saying something
The finish here had to be the most epic thing I'd ever seen. This was the first complete AGDQ run I (ever) got to watch live, and it was unbelievable.
This ABSOLUTELY needs to be an annual race!
Congratulations to all participants! Wish I could have watched it live.
I still watch this race from time to time. Metroid side-scroller games are my favorites because of the role Samus has to play. She takes on a dangerous mission that could leave her dead and alone on an alien planet, but she prevails and quietly saves the galaxy. It's great to see gamers perfect the runs. The drama of seeing your favorite speed runner take and lose the lead is better than most movies today!
I caught the second half of this live. One of the most intense moments of the marathon, and an all-time highlight.
This was the most exciting part of the whole marathon, without a doubt.
Pretty sure that has to be one of the closest races ever. 45:51 run and in the end they were separated by like half a second? Insane.
45 Minutes and a fucking 1 second lead at the end o.O I wish i coul have seen this live D: Great job to all runners :D
man, these guys do so well at a series I've never played before
FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCK
I need to try metroid
After watching so many AGDQ videos,this is by far THE BEST race I had the pleasure of investing my time on.So much skill and so much talent was demonstrated and only having just 3 energy tanks to beat the game is a accomplishment in itself considering the games difficulty.All of the players performed brilliantly and it's a shame for Garrison because I know deep down he felt like the victory cheer was for the winners who finished and he must of felt left out since he did not finish,but that's to be expected for when this speed run was targeted like a competition but never the less this awesome spectacle is for those people who are battling cancer and to me they are awesome people that needs treatment so help with the cause and support AGDQ in their endeavour to put a stop to cancer.
IT BELONGS IN A MUSEUM !!!
small world, dr jones
That final segment in Tourian was absolutely great and my heart was racing so fast!
Normally I don't like to watch races, because I'd like to concentrate on one speedrun. But this was great. The commentary helped a lot.
No matter how I'm feeling, or what kind of day I've had, I watch this and my day is instantly better.
I don't think this could have turned out any better.
I remember watching this live and just being amazed! Still gives me chills today
That was like, what, two frames? So intense.
More than that; somewhere between .3 and .4 seconds (18-24 frames). Still extremely close though.
4 years later and I still think this is the greatest race/run GDQ has ever had
4 years later and I still think this is the greatest race/run GDQ has ever had
Ivan started the game 0.033 seconds before Zoast, and finished 0.466 seconds before him (so he beat him by 0.433 seconds). To have 2 people finish that closely in a simultaneously played ~46-minute game with so many variables is incredible.
This has got to be the Platinum Standard of speenrunning as a whole. This race is it.
This is the first Super Metroid race i ever watched back in 2014 when I discovered GDQ event... going back and watching this in 2020 its insane how different the game and routing is 6 years later. My little one was only 1 when I watched this, hes now 7 and is sat watching it with me and is gobsmacked how different it was
This was great, loved it. For people who question if videogames can be a sport or not, this performance is something to consider, all of these men have some serious skill.
Out of all the Super Metroid runs I've watched, this might be my favorite so far. Four great players (I love SM speedrun races) and I love the commentary - very informative. If anyone ever asks me what speedrunning is all about, this is where I'll point them.
Amazing run, and while I usually don't notice them too much, the announcers themselves did a great job as well. They really kept up with the action and were quick to point out interesting tricks, strats, and such. Kudos to everyone involved.
Probably one of the best things I've seen in competitive gaming, period
For entertainment value, this is arguably the best sm speed run race in the last five years.
What a supportive comminty in the room and such a good commentary. Probably the best run at AGDQ 2014
Damn, that was awesome that final race to the finish was intense.
best part of AGDQ 2014
This was very cool to watch! Kinda like a Super Metroid Olympics!
The best video i've ever seen in RUclips history.
I had goosebumps the entire race.
As a SM speed run watcher. This is the best of the best. I watched all of them for years….
One of the best games ever, one of the best races and finishes ever.
First of all; Garrison, NOOOOO!
This race was incredible, Ivan is a monster. Watching this race while rooting for Zoast was like a roller coaster. A... roller zoaster if you will.
D e e R F o r C e indeed.
Almost Jim Nance-like commentary, with an under 1 second difference between first and second place. Great runners and crowd. Wonderful!
Fantastic race, fabulous commentators...I kept expecting one to turn to the other and say "right you are!".
The hypest of hype races, one of AGDQ2014 many highlights!
I love how this feels like a sporting event with the commentary. Awesome job everyone!
Love the commentary. Leaves the runners to concentrate on the game with no distractions. Awesome video!
Best Super Metroid race I've ever seen. Best speedrun race I've ever seen.
truly world class Super Metroid runners
This was very impressive. I was rooting for Zoast, due to his 100% speed run, but I was very impressed that Ivan did a great job, and then Zoast's triumph with Spore Spawn was wonderful to see, though again, Ivan did a great job.
Even after 6 years, this is still the best Super Metroid speed run I have seen.
To this day this is STILL the BEST GDQ race IMO. Everyone brought their A game. Yes even Garrison who kept getting screwed by RNG.
One of the best races I've ever seen. PERIOD.
This will always be one of my favorite games.. Amazing race!
That was the best SM race I have ever seen. Absolutely wonderful job on all the runs. It's too bad there was a death but, oh well. That's SM speed running for ya.
This was the most hyped run (probably) ever. and it deserved all of it.
I would never play any game at that level of precision. Props and applause at the gamers. Was overall crazy.
That commentary was amazing. Why is that not on all of the speedruns? Seriously.
It took about a year for me to complete the game the first time, so I'm right on track to becoming a speed runner if I work on it.
This was AWESOME! Also ice-cold commentary=win! Thank you guys!
loved this game and i'm very impressed by Zoast when he did his speed run, i always save the animals
Of course if you are just doing a normal playthrough then most people would save them.
man, coming back to this as 2020 is just starting off, crazy to see how much slower regular falling was vs moonfall
Exactly lol
5 years later; still hype. An incredible run by Zoast, Ivan, and Krauser.
10 years later; still hype.
Just a fun thing I noticed. Do to the parallax in the game and the slight differences in play, you can view this in 3D by crossing your eyes. Only really good if there is barely any separation in their runs.
Man, this was very interesting to watch. Krauser's comeback was epic.
I've never been at the edge of my seat watching someone else play a game before. This was one intense race.
This was exhilarating, and a ton of fun to watch!
Please keep up these competition vids.
To the four players, you are amazingly patient and talented. True original gaming gangsters.
ZT
They've done gaming history.
haha wow i've played so much super metroid in the past, but i would have never thought of playing a speed run contest. this was really exciting man!
Insane.... This game is pretty big, and they finish in less than a second from each other. Mindblowing.
Aw poor Zoasty, I was hoping he would win... Still, Ivan had an amazing run, so Kudos for him! (What an incredibly close race too, it's not every day you can see something like this!)
