The Speedrun Strategy that Revolutionized Red Ball 4

- Note from Maximum: This is NOT narrated by me. It is narrated by Jezs, who is @Goober13md on RUclips. Please watch the first 3 seconds of the video.
On the 16th of January, 2021, a complete newcomer to the speedrunning scene named xDiss posted a video innocently titled "red ball vol.1 boss glitch." In this video, xDiss managed to completely disrupt the normal progression of the boss found at the end of the game by slowly pushing it to the other side of the screen after completing phase 1. Though this strategy did not save any time at first, it was majorly improved by the hands of speedrunners Motorjam and NorXor, turning xDiss' boss push into the boss roll that we know today. With the strategy now having the potential to save around 25 seconds over a normal completion, the race to push the world record of the game from a 3:27 to below three minutes began. This is the story of the boss roll and how it changed Red Ball 4 Vol.1 speedrunning forever.

Nooooo, I don't have a computer :(
20th :(
Maybe I need to practice at some point with $100 I could buy a used laptop and no longer need to use my parent's laptop to do shit
The video: has music
Me: just (motor) jamming out
Jezs the MVP
How cool of a feeling must it be to be xDiss. I mean his second day of being in the discord and he made the discovery that broke the 3 min barrier
Gray-Mane or Battle-Born?
@@BlocksRock1006 battle -born i pick
@@jensonninniscool900 then you're either an Imperial soldier or a fool. Either way, no friend of mine. (JK it's a joke lads)
@@BlocksRock1006 in skyrim civil war the real ending or TRUE ending is imperial because the stormclock or whatever the word is it cannot beat the thalmor you know the high elves so pick imperial is good idea
@@jensonninniscool900 Perhaps... whatever you just said. the Thalmor (damn elves) aren't really needing any presence in Skyrim anyway.
Did anyone else just sit there wondering why Maximum’s voice changed so suddenly before even considering the fact someone else could be narrating?
someone else is narrating if you payed attention
@@dum_es7509 yes obviously I realized that, especially after the guy narrating actually said who he was.
no, because it says “Voiced By: Jezs” within the first 5 seconds lmao
@@Motorjam I didn’t say I was smart, just that I eventually realized lol.
This is my first video of this guy, so I just thought it was his voice
For you guys who don’t know, there is a red ball 4 autosplitter. That’s how Maximum knew it is a .9 like it says.
I shall now name my future son "jatloe"
@@Sir_Isaac_Newton_ why?
@@jatloe вы я
@@jatloe Why not?
@@jatloe If I ever have a son, he shall be named "jatloe"
double jump discovery: "oh, cool, let's use it to cut off half the time"
boss glitch discovery: "all praise our lord and savior xDiss!"
(yeah, truly amazing)
This is mostly because back then when double jump was discovered they were still finding crazy new glitches
When boss roll was discovered they already found all other major time saves
dont praise xdiss he SUCKS
“get xDiss’d” - The description of vol. Nice WR
LMAO
imagine being such a bitch you decide to beat the 4:20 by TWO seconds because of a 25 second timesave
@@Motorjam mad bc xDiss’d lol
@@NorXor nah you broke the FUNNY MEME WR because u wanted a trophy so bad
@@Motorjam the previour wr should've been 4:22 if you know what I mean
Who knew such a simple and old flash game could be so interesting and intense?
Yea
me
i also have an app
ikr, I remember learning how intense it could get as I was playing
6:11 is it a coincidence or he just defeated the boss in 32767ms, that is the maximum 16bit signed value
You are the now second person to point this out which is kindof funny
So
The video narrates by the first speedrunner of the game AND features voices of 3 best speedrunners of the same game? That's cool
Love how you got them to read their comments lol
Thanks, I thought it was a nice touch.
@@Maximum never seen anyone do that before, adds personality
@@batatadoce3025 It was probably easier since they all are friends, but yeah, its a great touch
rolling around at the speed of sound
xdiss' gaming chair must've been insane
Apparently I did this as a kid. My bullying of pixels could have revolutionized speedrunning this game years ago
xDiss: *new strat*
Sub 3: well then i guess i'll exist
how to get gf
one: talk a bout redball speed runs
two: misspell about
How to get gf
Step one: -rope-
@@PostTraumaticSwagDisorder step two: Sayo-
when you see the first part of this video and you see that his actual world record is 30 seconds faster, when in the video where he explains the history of speedrun in red ball 4 he do an enormous effort, and now I know why
The boss roll odds are like 5% for me, not 30%
Literally failed it 18 times on 3:1X pace
lol imagine failing boss roll i have 100% strat now haha lol
@@Rubienlily character development
For me I'm around 50% even though I have no idea what I'm doing.
I also found this glitch while playing on my school's computers. I just found it fun to push the boss, but after the glitch my friends and I were very confused that we skipped phase 2. We set a new time trial record of 58 seconds on the computer.
I heard the mirror b disco theme at the beginning and was instantly happy
I remember hearing the news of the boss strat and sub-3 on the speedrun subreddit. Great video again!
Bro these vids get better every video the edits and music is honestly insane great job itsmaximum
thank you for verifying my run in red ball 4 vol.1 any% glitchless maximum and it was you the first person i watched about red ball speedrunning
every upload I watch immediately lol, I don't even know why
I appreciate it!
lol. Same thing to me.
Cool that you are back ItsMaximum and then again with a great video in the bag (^_^)
This is very well edited. Looking forward for more
I have barely played red ball but these videos are so entertaining
i'm literally speedrunning red ball because of maximum lol
I have never heard of this game, I do not play it, and yet I am now watching every single video about speedrunning it.
10:50
Best editing.. ive ever seen in my whole life, its so Amazing!
the editing for this was great, especially the donkey kong country montage, that was a work of art
Imagine being that boss and getting pushed all over the place while you're trying to initiate your second faze, and then just giving up and going back to faze one.
Your underrated. Your editing really is great, and you always get others in the video:)
‘The stars aligned: ‘ “INVISALIGN”
Random newbie: hey guys look at this cool boss glitch
The 3:29 time: *_oh shit_*
The boss: *Is one of the first boss*
Also the boss: *Death of many run*
I physically clapped when I saw you get the sub 3, congratulations man holy damn
The other 4 bosses: Am I a joke to you?
This is the flash release on volume 1, which only has this boss.
@@Maximum oh lol
I remember comepleting this and i was feeling like that sweaty speedrunner meme
I just dont know one thing. Why i love watching things about speedruning a game that i played as kid? dunno
But i enjoy it sooo much
Btw: awesome edit, like much better then a lot of guys with 300k subs have
Basically I’ll sum it up at the randomized bouncing for the boss, if it has less bounces you could have 5.600 seconds, but if you have more you will have 1 second and 366 milliseconds added to your time.
Man who is this itsmaximum guy
8:54 "So, the two just kept going at it."
oh god
6:06 yooo he got the 16-bit integer limit!
Jezs sounds like he did 50 takes for each line
13:46 wow the stars aligned right on my birthday lol
Jezs! good narration, man. i used to see you in Cyber's stream back in the day.
Congrats on the sub 3
thank u for subtitles
Fun fact: ultra_exists so far is the player to have done the fastest completion to not be sub 3. Also Incredi has gotten sub 2 and hasn't been beaten for 11 months, with the closest being NorXor 2 months ago, who got a 2:26, meaning not only did Incredi pass the barrier, but also is the only one to do so as of the time I'm posting this comment.
man people be speedrunning my childhood
what is it with speedrunner names being completely incomprehensible
Yoo this ItsMaximum guy has been getting alot of these red ball records does anyone know if he has a youtube channel ?
thank you, I hope you also have a great rest of your day.
Aww heck yeah! I step into a random video and hear Miror B's theme from XD!
why does jezs sound depressed
Damn I figured this out too and thought I made a massive discovery
This man got a world record on my bIrthday. My god
A sub 3 as well
Red Ball 5 is one of the most interesting adventure game online in the infinite kinds of skill game. If you have been interested in the earlier versions of Red Ball, you cannot ignore this version, Red Ball 5. With the simple control, attractive features and challenging adventures, Red Ball 5 can be regarded as one of the most famous games today.
Wow, I need to try this!
@@circuspeanuts1557 I think that was a joke. The speedrun involves spamming space to skip levels. The game is made by a different creator and does not have an auto scroller like the rest of the red ball games. Also the red ball is too big for the screen (my opinion) and the jump height is too short (also my opinion).
@@Frost-rx4ch I was also joking, this is something of an inside joke on the discord server lol. Are you in the discord?
touhou
This was my childhood 😂
Boss: 😡
Redball: 😃
5:42 dude motorjam your hands please chill
3:09 GET OUT OF MY HEAD GET OUT OF MY HEAD GET OUT OF MY HEAD GET OUT OF MY HEAD GET OUT OF MY HEAD GET OUT OF MY HEAD
me beating the game in 15 minutes:yay
them beating the game under 3:00:ok
So good to hear the donkey Kong theme song
Why does the sub 3:00 remind me of the "four [bloop] pixels." part of the 096 movie?
What’s the song around 11:04? It feels like a donkey Kong one
Music list is in the description
ItsMaximum: Mario RPG music
Nintendo: instant copyright
i still dont get how you do frame perfect inputs with no pause buffering, TAS tools, or FIPSs
Muscle memory
what timer is that for the runs without livesplit; the black timer?
I've never heard of this game but here I am lol
His voice sounds more dead then my grandmother.
I haven't seen much of this speedrunning community but I thought everybody knew this glitch-
no, did u find it urself before? To my knowledge i was the first guy who found it but maybe you can get some proof
@@12newangels I mean me and my friends that played this knew this glitch so I thought people already knew that the glitch existed if you know what I mean.
Also I've barely seen any of this speedrunning community, I'm not trying to saying that "I fOuNd iT fIrSt" or anything like that
So the absolute best possible time should be around 02:57 flat?
The TAS is a 1:59 so no
I’m new to speedruning and this is the hardest strat I use
my childhood game gets speedrunned???
Sub 3:20 is sub 200 seconds
I first played this game on an amazon fire stick.
3:27 to 2:59
Wow
What a glitch
Pffft not even about golf ball rolling
ikr..
no way...
3:07
xdiss profile picture is "keke" from the rule bending puzzle game: "baba is you"
true
@@12newangels ohhh
i didn't expect that you would answer on my comment
Kinda surprising how ez this is to learn pb 30.42 in one day
I'M CRYING CUZ I DISCOVERED THE BUG SOME TIME AGO BUT I WASNT SPEEDRUNNER AND DIDN'T HAVE DISCORD SO I DIDN'T THINK MUCH OF IT 😭😭
Remember when maximum turned into a British bloke
I used this on the time trial levels without realizing it was Smyth ppl actually did lol
he invented the wheel lol
This game is nostalgic
I love the music, man, but there's something wrong with your voice; it's a lot deeper than normal.
Hopefully you weren't sick or something; please remember to take it easy! Your health is far more important than anything else.
the video is not voiced by Maximum, it's voiced by Jezs
@@ProPPlayer Oh, I'm well aware; I was joking.
Dude you have to make an update for v1 WR has gone crazy
Well this is a bazar tern of events!
Jezs weren’t you like 14 when you started these speedrun lists you sound 40
Awesome fucking editing
Nostalgia
Big Big Chungus, Big Chungus, Big Chungus
not funny dude
you took it too far...
1 day after my 12th birthday RBV4 Sub 3 also happened lol
3:15 XDISS MY MAN WHAT YOU DOIN IN A SPEEDRUNNING VID HUH?
bruv
@@12newangels hi xdiss
@@sfericzox2932 hi sfericzox
Wait i played this on my ipad like 3 years ago wtf
everyone did lol
SHEEEESH new video
Hey can you just get the full version on mobile and fire stick?
The mobile version is very different compared to the flash volumes, and its speedruns are tracked on a separate leaderboard. The boss roll does not work on mobile.
Who remembers duck life?

I like how he talks about himself as if he’s not maximum
