2nd SaGa Frontier PB in a Row – 23:14

I got a back-to-back PB! I did not expect this to happen at all. I can still save a bunch of time in Magic Kingdom and Hell to getting fewer encounters. Watch the run here:

That’s all I wanted to say. I’m speechless.

New Blue’s Story PB – 23:56 (5TH PLACE)

This came out of nowhere. I was just doing offline attempts to practice for stream tomorrow, and it happened, somehow. Watch the run below:

This run was better than my 24, but can still be majorly improved. I had better menuing and movement overall, but I was sloppy in TimeLord’s Region, I got an encounter in Magic Kingdom, and I heavily choked stepping stone room, which cost me a mid 22. I will still do attempts for this category until I get a high 21 since I know for a fact I’m capable of that now. I’m very happy with this run, but I am by no means satisfied. This run puts me in 3rd on SRC, 4th in Japan, and 5th overall.

Anyway, that’s enough of me complaining. Enjoy the run!

New Fishy World Record

A bit of context: the developer of Fishy, Keron Veal, released an update for the first Fishy today. In this update, he added a mode that brings in 10 levels from Fishy2. I decided it would be a great use of my quarantine time to spend four hours on getting the world record for completing all 10 of these levels. Watch the meme run here:

I’m officially a Twitch Affiliate!

I’m now a Twitch Affiliate!!! This means that you can now subscribe to me on Twitch and give me Bits. You can subscribe at 3 different tiers: Tier 1 is $4.99/month, Tier 2 is $9.99/month, and Tier 3 is $24.99/month. Do note that if you subscribe through the iOS app, you will be spending more to subscribe than a desktop user. Additionally, if you connect your Amazon Prime account to your Twitch account, you are given one free Tier 1 subscription to any streamer you want that becomes available the instant your subscription runs out. You get a neat little badge next to your name in chat depending on how long you’ve been subscribed to me. Here are all the badges:

All the different badges a subscriber can have depending on how long they've been subscribed to my Twitch channel

You can get another badge next to your name for giving me Bits. Bits are the equivalent to pennies on Twitch. They do cost slightly more than a penny, however. You can get Bits for free by watching some ads. Each badge is earned once you donate a certain amount of Bits. The minimum is 1 Bit and the maximum is 5 million Bits (which is equivalent to $5,000 USD). Here are all the different badges you can get for giving me Bits:

Unfortunately, since I’m a new Affiliate, I’m only allowed one emote per tier. As of writing, the only emote I have is the F in the SaGa Frontier logo. The emote is called ffvdgaF.

That’s all I wanted to share. Thank you for your support and I hope I can make great content for y’all!

New SaGa Frontier PB (TOP 5 ON SRC)

I FINALLY DID IT. It was a somewhat awful run, but at least I finally did it. I am now 4th on SRC, 5th on niconico, and 9th overall. I’m on top of the world right now. The final time was 24:46. Watch the run here:

This was a pretty bad run in comparison to what I want. I had to do 3 dives in Junk Shop, I messed up several menus throughout the run, my movement in TimeLord’s Region wasn’t great, my bad movement in Magic Kingdom made me get 2 extra encounters, and my nerves made me get 1 extra encounter in Hell. I also didn’t get the best Hell’sLord fight, but it was at least decent. On the bright side, I had a relatively great Mu’s Tomb and Skulldrake fight, a very good TimeLord fight, decent RNG in Magic Kingdom and Hell in terms of the kinds and amounts of enemies I encountered, and a perfect stepping stone room. That’s the first time I’ve executed clowp’s stepping stone room strategy in a run. Almost all of my mistakes after TimeLord were solely due to nerves. I’m happy with this run, but I am by no means satisfied. I will continue to grind this category for a 22 minute time, which is definitely possible if I don’t get any extra encounters and be faster in every menu.

I hope you enjoy SaGa Frontier – Blue’s Story in 24:46!
