How Speedrunners Collect EVERYTHING in Wind Waker (Speedrun Explained)

Everything that is not a wall or door is a chest, makes understanding the run easier!

"The devs put a speed cap on how fast link can swim forward, but they didn't put a cap to how fast link can swim backwards."




Me: HAVE THESE FUCKERS LEARNED NOTHING FROM SM64'S BACKWARD LONG-JUMP?

This game is such a mess. It’s beautiful!

wait since this video is shorter then the speedrun itself...
does that make this a speedrun of a speedrun?
speedrun-ception~ ;D

I came from the fast 50 and so glad I did awesome vid!

i really want Linkus 7 to play Windwaker but normally

I'm sure other people have done this but your my favorite but still what a flex, speed running a game while talking about every detail about how to speed run the game, that proves you know what your doing and I'm pretty sure you have two brains.

so uhh, u dont pronounce the second b in bomb my friend

I can’t comprehend how people can just know exactly which frame is which

Linkus is so great at explaining what’s happening and the editing was clean

So I am trying to get WindWaker for my birthday and I am interested in speedrunning. Should I get the GameCube version or the Wii U version?

I wanna see an all figurines run.

I honestly thought the Medlii skip was a joke when he said spin around twice lol

"It might of looked easy"
Dude, that medley skip is the farthest thing from simple, who looks at that set up and thinks it's simple?

speedruns never stop being funny. "I ripped the souls out of these slime creatures, then pushed all but one of them into the corner of walls in such a way that they get sent miles away using gaps in reality, and i do the same to the last one but count precisely when its body dissipates into the aether so that i can position myself to get crushed and swallowed by this tree. This little maneuver saved us about two minutes!"

that canon boat must be the one piece of heart i was missing when i tried to 100% years ago. lol good to know now

Listening to linkus explain the backwards swim is like listening to Bob Ross paint a canvas I love it every time

Y'all I have watched this video 2 times now because I love when speedruns are explained

you are awesome dude! love your content

The guy that “rediscovered” that skip defiantly seen the previous one haha he had too, great story tho that’s very interesting It’s crazy that people were on this grind back then, we live in a cool time haha. Love your commentary and how you’ve explained things throughout the video great video man!

Manual super swim is basically made in heaven, f*ck yeah

I think this is the first time I've ever seen you do the MSS without pause buffering and I was not expecting it

Learned so much about my favorite games in this run. Great job as always!

I fell asleep watching this and it REALLY messed with my dreams, especially "nothing bad could ever happen to Makar-- *Makar shrieks*"

I can't wait to watch this.

This was so much fun. This kind of long-form video helps me sleep at night. Not because it's boring, no - it's just relaxing.

Linkus accidentally using Grandma's fairy absolutely killed me for all imaginable reasons.

Pretty dang fun to watch someone speed run while giving clear explanations that are easy to understand
Thanks!

I just noticed the subscribe button does a rainbow when he says to subscribe... how long has that been a thing?

I wasn't paying attention to your little box in the corner during the first half of the game and I assumed you were watching a recording of your own run, because doing a run with so many crazy tricks WHILE explaining them seemed insane to me. And then... I looked where your hands were. Holy shit, dude. You're incredible for explaining these so damn well AND speedrunning the game at the same time?! Incredible!

So you get the sword on the cut scene... what happens if you try to get the sword of the off-set island when you already have it?

100% WW has always felt incomplete to me without completing the sea chart or doing figurines, though, because of availability, Tingle stuff doesn't nor going hyper thorough on dungeons.

Full stream somewhere?

Floor 20 , $)

I wish more speedrunners would break down their runs like this. This was incredibly informative, even as a more casual player myself. I learned a ton about the game and some cool trivia.

That barrier skip setup sounds like someone describing a fake speedun trick lol
"Like yeah, next you spin around a couple times and drop a frame perfect bomb. It's totally real guys. You gotta believe me"

Live community for this style of video sucks

Incredible ability to commentate while performing extremely precise tricks! Fantastic video!

This was the most enjoyable thing I have seen in a long time. You are very talented Linkus

This guy is the gamer equivalent of Batman.
