Can highly recommend you guys go and watch the Dangun run in a few hours for sure! Qlex is a very good Dangun player and he's been practicing a lot these past few weeks on his twitch page.

The other runs looks pretty dope too. I haven't kept up with Pocky & Rocky Reshrined so I'll be curious to see what a speedrun of that game looks like!

Marathon Feveron ALL2 :shock:

Almost a PB too, his pace on stage 5 was fantastic.

It was absolutely incredible! I'd definitely say this has been one of the best live runs I've ever seen.

That was indeed a great run by Qlex. Can't believe the no miss run with that kind of pressure to perform live. And he lost a combo chain on St1 boss (maybe nerves?) that would have probably been the difference for that personal best score. Incredible chaining St2-5 though, and using the missiles to clear new waves so fast and keep pumping up the score. If anything, the only downside to this exhibition is that it probably didn't LOOK as impressive to people who aren't familiar with the game because he was killing enemies so fast before they could cause havoc on the screen.

Good stuff!
