    Wow, genuinely amazed by the amount of traction this meme has been getting. I also didn't know people still loved FTL as much as I do. Thanks for all the nice comments. I try to read them all. I've made another video like this on Crystal B.

    HOLD UP
    I'm glad this game is still getting the attention it deserves. Also that first streak up until the Zoltan fight really sums up a lot of FTL. Either you sweep the ships effortlessly, or they turn into painful slogs that you literally just stop micromanaging and just accept the 5+ hull damage because the game clearly decides you're not sweeping now.
    This reminds me of 2 great pre-igniter runs I had. One ended with 2 Flak II and 2 Flak I, which was basically a speedrun as everything died in 1 or 2 shots. The other one ended with 3 burst laser II, I did have 4, but I found a Vulcan Chain Laser and couldn't resist. Once somethings shields were down they never came back up.
