Scene: Two years ago I was playing Hades and couldn't beat any of my runs I tried for hours and hours, just trying to beat that gosh darn god of the dead, but all my attempts were futile. After so long, I gave up and never returned. 2 years later... A BEACON OF HOPE Tulok and Mango releases their Hades Dash Only Run onto the videoing platform UA-cam. A spark is reignited in my heart and I pick up Hades one more time I spend countless hours, but finally, I achieved the true ending of Hades and my life had meaning again! Thank you Tulok and Mango
If you've got absolutely nothing to spend your fun juice on, giving it to Bouldy is a viable move. Once your friendship is at a certain point with him, giving him some more will reward you with a mild buff for the rest of the run. Respect the rocks, and they will respect you.
That was a fun run! I also remember seeing the shackle and going “I wonder how peeved the old man will be if I get to him with no boons” but I already had all the mirror buffs, doing it from the beginning is a bigger challenge
While not challenge runs there is some fire emblem content played by Corey, though it's not complete I believe. It was before this channel became an Elden Ring challenge channel. I miss those days sometimes but they make great content no matter what imo, Corey doing a great job as editor, and it's great to see the channel growing. I don't even like Elden Ring but I love watching Tulok and Mango.
Let's not overlook Ike's theme playing as he announces Daedelus is a union worker and not a god. I don't know how intentional that is but I deeply appreciate it
One of my favorite runs was doing this. Iirc, I pulled it off with Aspect of Nemesis, which is a bit strong. My rule was not "no benefiting from any boons" though and just "no boons in the Hades fight" so I would would pick up the mandatory boons and just use them until the next purging pool where I'd get rid of all of them. It's enough for the game to count it for the easter egg dialogue so it's good enough for me lmao.
I’ve turned on all notifications for you now, it took the algorithm a month to show me the previous Hades video. Your style and wit fit so well with the mythology here. I hope to see more!
Magma is molten rock that is underground, lava is molten rock that has broken the surface. You are a lot of fun to watch, can't wait to see what you do next.
You're starting over for each video? You're mad man and I'm here for it XD Honestly, not how I expected an atheist run to be done. I figured the reroll stones but your way is easier and accessible from the start.
First of all how dare you say it about drawing hands, second of all the video is amazing, I got the end of the stream and got really excited when the yt notification poped up keep the good work man 😊
This is your science fact for the day: Magma refers to molten rock that is underground, whereas lava is molten rock that has broken through the Earth's crust onto the surface. The hot rock soup the hydra sits in is technically underground, which would make it magma, not lava! I'm really loving these Hades runs Tulok, would love to see these (and other games, I love the exploration!) more regularly! I'm just here for those sweet, sweet dry humour bits.
Classic comedy time. Zagrussy: "Father. Whilst I was out ransacking your realm, I came across a peculiar shade, by the name of Bophades." Hades: "Hmm. I do not recall this name, boy. Who is this Bophades?" Z: "Bopha-deez nuts you miserable old man!" H: "Tsch! Such disrespect from my own kin! The likes of which I've not seen since "Updog". Z: "Updog? What's 'Updog'?" Z: 1:40
I was so caught off guard when I finally beat the bosses of Elysium and it wasn't the end of the game ;-; still haven't beaten it yet but I'm working hard to make you proud :)
I’m pretty sure that BreadTube has already determined that the people on the coast whose homes are flooded are selling those homes to Aqua Man. HBomb already called it.
Very fun. Though I honestly feel there's no need to start a new save file for every challenge; if you want to keep the challenge up you could always add Heat/turn off the Mirror. Plus, a continuing save file would let us see the progressing renovations in the hub :)
Honestly I'm all for starting from scratch, it just feels right. Not how I saw the Hades runs going seeing as it's a rogue like and you can do the stuff you mentioned but it's not really the same is it? I admire the chutzpah it takes to start from scratch and seeing if you can beat it under these conditions from the beginning and not just a random run. Playing on the same file you also lose out on the actual progression, like leveling the mirror and other things, that come from a clean start. Also with how these videos are formated I'm not sure how much hub progression he would actually show off anyways. Don't remember him getting too into it last video but I haven't finished this one yet so maybe I'm wrong. The game has also been out for awhile now so showing off the hub might not be as appealing to people who have played and it gives those who have yet to play something more to experience on their own if they decide to pick it up after watching this. Idk just my two cents on the matter.
Damn are you doing these with no mirror too?? The goat Also 15:37 you missed the BEST hammer for the bow, triple shot, it has the same effect you described with the special where you can hit something with all 3 arrows if you’re close enough
Aprodite's cast is the best. It's the highest damage cast, use it with the hera bow or beowulf shield and you get the game on easy mode. Don't need anymore things to set up the build,
To the question of “why doesn’t Sisyphus just stop” because in the mythology if he stops or slows down ever he gets whipped by basically demons so he must always push the boulder.
"The best defense in Hades is a good offense" Unless you're a shield main like me, in which case a good offense *is* your defense. I loved bullying even bosses with the shield, so fun. Edit: eh, I can understand not liking the shield. I used it in the most ADHD fuster cluck way possible. Running straight at enemies, literally sitting in front of bosses as they fire projectiles, and yeeting the shield whenever a stray braincell decided "screw that random enemy".
Have you considered a light weapon only run for elden ring (Cipher Pata, Coded sword and golden order greatsword). the end game would make for an intresting challenge
I really just love your content style. I dunno if you could find a game that I'd dislike watching you edit and commentate. Edit: Is that a Dunkey reference?
Hoarding slash sucks, if you have like 1000 gold it ads 50 damage, but it doesn't increase the base damage it's just added on top. So it doesn't get further improved by other boons. Basically you need a lot of money, and only get a little bit of damage
ATHEIST RUN LETS GOOOO
Checkmate pantheists 😤😤
Local demigod refuses to believe in Gods, decides to kill them all instead.

A BEACON OF HOPE
Tulok and Mango releases their Hades Dash Only Run onto the videoing platform UA-cam. A spark is reignited in my heart and I pick up Hades one more time
I spend countless hours, but finally, I achieved the true ending of Hades and my life had meaning again!
Thank you Tulok and Mango
He really is an inspiration

Yeah doing it with no rail aspect is super difficult especially if it's not buffed also no shackle max lv, shackle+ cluster rockets is ez mode😂
Technically speaking, you ARE gaining bonuses from gods when you sell their boons. Like, they literally give you money.
I support Tulok's fun runs. much love and please do try more other games, I'm sure there's a lot of fun you can have.
I've got some BAD ideas
Really loving the hades content. Fits your style very well with these challenges and brings out some of the best of your commentary
You can actually get zero boons, and there is special dialogue from Hades if you do
I think that the story dialogue from the first encounter with him overrides it, though.
Every time I hear the great fire emblem music in your videos I want to see a fire emblem challenge run from you!
While not challenge runs there is some fire emblem content played by Corey, though it's not complete I believe. It was before this channel became an Elden Ring challenge channel.

I really love Cory's editing on these. Always primo good. Great video, love these runs!

Woo! More Hades! I beat the whole thing ages ago, but your last video got me to pick it back up again!
As soon as you said “this ad for….” I got a Panera ad. Great timing
Loved your Elden Ring content and loving your Hades content! More hades
did not expect that hbomberguy reference at 9:07, was leaning back in my chair cackling
i’m negl the way the “just like this ad for…” sucked right into an actual midroll ad for genshin impact was pretty damn slick
Magma is molten rock that is underground, lava is molten rock that has broken the surface.
You are a lot of fun to watch, can't wait to see what you do next.
Love seeing videos from you every week (or whenever you post them)
It's every week! We haven't missed in over a year!
I just love the way you explain what you are doing. Its so relaxing
Your first hades video got me to play it and it’s amazing! Keep up these variety games!
You're starting over for each video? You're mad man and I'm here for it XD
Honestly, not how I expected an atheist run to be done. I figured the reroll stones but your way is easier and accessible from the start.
I love your new Hades content, been watching for a year and some now!
Here’s a boost for that algorithm, Tulok!
Just discovered your videos a couple weeks ago and I'm obsessed, keep up the great work man
D&D, Fromsoft, or Hades, I'm gonna watch and support your content. I love your videos.
Sooooooo, what I’m hearing is cast only run.
Never played or watched Hades before...I guess that's changing now.
Oh hell yeah, play Hades, it's the best
A DK Oldies ad played right as you said "an ad for my"
8:43 The furies make him.
That's why, when you get rid of his contract, he stops
Oh seeing Charged Shot on offer for the shield and you not taking it Hurt. lovely video, I'm really enjoying the series
First of all how dare you say it about drawing hands, second of all the video is amazing, I got the end of the stream and got really excited when the yt notification poped up keep the good work man 😊

Thumb's up for the great video, but that the dog remains unpetted is a tragedy of Greek proportions.
I was expecting this to be a modded run that got rid of boons. Oh man
Rejecting aphrodite is the ultimate gigachad move. Literally saying f you to love itself. 😂😂
Yay! This was a fun vid and I can’t wait to see more game variety. Hope you’re having fun in Europe!
shame these other challenge run videos didnt do so well cause these were really fun
4:25 Sums up Zag and Meg's relationship pretty well, honestly. =V

Feels odd seeing the earlier stages of a save file, like sometimes I forget about all the extra stuff you get over time
Who would’ve thought Phil would go down as an atheist on hades, let’s goooo!
Keep making great content for us
Oh if I must
I’m pretty sure that BreadTube has already determined that the people on the coast whose homes are flooded are selling those homes to Aqua Man. HBomb already called it.
Seeing you not dash-strike with the bow gave me PHYSICAL PAIN... always dash-strike with bow and with pretty much everything ngl lol
solid shapiro impression!
I loved the dunk on shabibo
“Just like this ad for-“ ACTUAL AD SHOWS UP LMFAO
Very fun.

I love the XC2 music at 12:49
I wonder what game we could possibly be trying in September...
Damn are you doing these with no mirror too?? The goat
Also 15:37 you missed the BEST hammer for the bow, triple shot, it has the same effect you described with the special where you can hit something with all 3 arrows if you’re close enough
i love your narration tbh
I got an Ad RIGHT AFTER he said, "just like this ad".
Aprodite's cast is the best. It's the highest damage cast, use it with the hera bow or beowulf shield and you get the game on easy mode. Don't need anymore things to set up the build,
Hades pact of punishment with only cast
Love the hades videos
2:50 Isn‘t Charon on the Cthonic Gods section of the compendium?
The reason why sisyphis has to roll a boulder up a hill forever is because that is his punishment in Taurtarus.
Aye love to see more hades
You wanna see more, hey deez videos will just keep comin
Loving all of the hades runs
Atheism & Heresy should do an all-ben-shapiro run. He gets nothing but dionysis and bitches impotently the whole time
i really enjoy the hades runs. the challenge was interesting.
Always here for more Hades!! Let's gooooo!!! 💜💜💜💜
This was really great!
To the question of “why doesn’t Sisyphus just stop” because in the mythology if he stops or slows down ever he gets whipped by basically demons so he must always push the boulder.

Can't wait till the next hades vid
Have you considered a light weapon only run for elden ring (Cipher Pata, Coded sword and golden order greatsword). the end game would make for an intresting challenge
All the best videos have a “fucking aquaman” joke.
This is powerful
Eventually it becomes so
detroiters is so good ugh I miss it. Sad it got cancelled.
"No just god would ever endorse the evils of capitalism."
Looks at Hermes, god of merchants and bankers. And thieves. So really just thieves.
to everyone that didn't get the impression I envy you and recommend you never try to find out who it is
hell yeah hades time
Now it is time for cast only.
I really just love your content style. I dunno if you could find a game that I'd dislike watching you edit and commentate.
Edit: Is that a Dunkey reference?
Let’s get a hades/zapheaus build in Elden ring now
Can you do a shield only elden ring run
Godless dash only when
I would love to see you play Dead Cells in September! 😀🥰
No petting the best dogo is sad sir. You have made me sad😊
Yay more Hades
One weapon only run, unlocking all the later aspects of that weapon?
Try and do cosplay runs in baldur's gate 3 like you did for elden ring
Mann, I just wanted to be friends and drink my kool-aid, I didn't ask for this
The best defense, is more defense
Hades go brrrrrrrr wooooooo
2:30 Bro how are you drawing bicycles? They're much easier to draw than hands.
Yeah, it's between bicycles and faces. How are you drawing faces that a hand doesn't fit in the middle there?
Zues fans being Zuesy makes sense.
Wait, isnt the hammer just a standin for hephaestus boons?
You should do a aphrodite only run
Hoarding slash sucks, if you have like 1000 gold it ads 50 damage, but it doesn't increase the base damage it's just added on top. So it doesn't get further improved by other boons. Basically you need a lot of money, and only get a little bit of damage
NO BOONS 🤨
Hammer... live?
Fun fact: Less than 40% of Steam players have the achievement for petting Cerberus 10 times.
Gamers are not viable as a species.
Hades and God of War and actual mythology fans can agree on one thing, Zeus is a prick and we hate him.
Hey tulok (and mango) im watching the hades videos are u proud of me?
(Hi mango i like ur editing)
