Grondious's video: Cuphead Current World Record Speedrun in 27:33 47 Any - V1 1 5 - Regular Difficulty

This run was something truly special. After spending around 2,200 hours playing Cuphead with likely 1,500 of those hours being on specifically this category, after 7 months on this specific grind spent doing tons of practice and strategy hunting, losing run after run to bad luck or often easy to make mistakes, all I wanted was a 27:39 to quit this category and somehow instead my efforts were rewarded with a run better than what I even had hoped for, one 6 seconds better than my end goal! I couldn't be happier with this time and the quality of this run, starting off with the fastest Isle 1 of all time by around 3 seconds and actually maintaining the community best pace of all time on every individual split past that outside of Grim. Devil as well cooperated at the end and gave me a solid pattern to let me close out this insane run. I have nothing more at this time that I feel I still need to give to the progression of this categories record and so I'll be retiring from it for the far foreseeable future. I do hope to make some kind of advanced tutorial to share my knowledge of the game with people in hopes it helps them on their own Cuphead speedrunning journeys. Cuphead Speedrunning is very near and dear to my heart, something that has been a catalyst for me to really get into more speedrunning and its many great communities. I've made a lot of friends through this and had some awesome opportunities and even made some personal growth through it all. I couldn't be more thankful towards this little hobby of trying to go fast in random games and I couldn't be more thankful towards Cuphead and its community for really being the main gateway for me to really get seriously involved in all of this. Thank you to everyone that watched me on this journey or just to you all watching this run now, and I do hope you enjoy it! I'll likely do more Cuphead speedrunning things at some point (maybe even all flags in the near future!). If you're interested in that or other speedrunning/fun things I'll be messing around with in the future you could consider following my Twitch or subscribing to my YouTube for more of this content if you want, either way, thank you and have a good one :D Watch live at - https://www.twitch.tv/grondious
