Welcome to Hollow Knight Speedrunner vs. Hunters! As the speedrunner, my goal is to beat the game within two hours, but if I die, I lose ten minutes off the clock! Hunters have to stop me from beating the game by slowing me down or getting kills. This is the best iteration of Hollow Knight Speedrunner vs. Hunters yet.

Uhhhhhhh I was about to shleeep but this is more important
Is flukenext still banneeed?
Why block off the grubs freeing?
He/They? Haven't heard that one before, noted!
@@AltF-io3dy Yeah! Although I'm not totally sure if it needs to be since at this point I think DDark might be better.
"He could be just getting the Distant Village stag"
"Nah, that's too meta"
I was dying at that one.
It feels like Cassandra of Troy, just saying the truth and no one believing them.
Came here to comment that. Fire would die laughing if he could hear that one
i think he can hear
@@TheBluePhoenix008he can't, it's stated in video at 1:07
"Well he might be in city so I'm gonna head there."
"HOW?!?"
"I dunno, he's fire."
That made me laugh.
dude's already in soul sanctum at that point too lol
the funny thing was that he was in city
18:55 if someone wanted the timestamp. I love how they keep losing their minds. xD
I like how they forgot about the *front door* of city as an option.
Man, that Windette guy seeps super chill and nice. I bet he would never insult his viewers and he loves elevators
that's definitely not suspiciously specific or provably false!
@@epikitee2186 it is most certainly false, and definitely not his channel gimmick
He also adores Markoth and doesn’t ever wear cat ears. Furthermore he totally doesn’t prefer spells for damage he loves the nail.
I'm missing a joke here and I don't like it.
@@infiniteaj8688 Just because I feel like ruining the joke: everything they're saying is a lie. All statements above yours are false
Windette: “He did dark deepnest!”
Fire, slowly hiding his lantern: “mhm yeah”
I think he has done dark rooms without Lanterns, just not this time
@@fantasyshadows3207 obv lmfao
No but the way he censors him saving the grubs is the funniest thing ever to me
_ _ _ _*
Wdym? He never saved them, they just escaped from their jars
Also when he specifically shows himself walking right by grubs later on. The monster
@@truthwatcher1808 yeah because he saved enough to get a mask shard then didn’t bother anymore because he’s like that
😐
18:40 "not enough geo because he hasn't been to the city"
fire: *is in the city*
I found your comment just as that happened.
I love being able to hear the hunters' dialogue, its hilarious how they keep second guessing themselves.
"That's too meta" -Windette, 2021.
This is what happens when Fire has EXTRA TIME
The longest I've listened to Windette without him insulting someone.
I can relate
i didnt read the names in the title and my brain doesnt understand windette not insulting people, so i didnt even notice for a bit
It was a truly incredible experience
"Ok, motherfuckers, get here".
This might be your best "speedrunner vs hunter" episode yet! With those insane jukes and amazing end fight XD
Could it be, I agree with someone verified and it's not just cause of the giant tick next to their name-
I agree. Loving this new ruleset!
True
It's the best cause Windette
The not losing time in HK is a perfect fix to the last rule set.
"There is no way he can get past us" they say as he is already on the other side of the world map.
The ruleset is so balanced now wow ! It makes things even more interesting !
Well played to you all, never saw fire get this stacked for a vs hunters videos
Would be nice, if hunters knew the ruleset and didn't attack him on bosses tho
@@BestFighter8 they didnt attack him on bosses, the only boss they can fight him in is THK
@@BestFighter8 What are you even on about? They are allowed to fight him in THK, no other boss.
i dont know, he won with 637 seconds left on the clock. For more than half the video he juked the hunters so they wouldn't get him. A better coordinated team or if just ONE of their failen lifelines didnt fail, hunters would have won. If he could hear the hunters IMO that would make it more balanced, but being how it is it's just luck whether the hunter goes to place A or B
not saying I didnt enjoy the video as this is my favorite one so far, but it's not the most balanced it could be.
@@TheBlissfulVoid 37 seconds? You mean 10 minutes 37 seconds, right?
The hunters: Theorising and strategising on where fire could be
Windette: “I am nodding furiously on an elevator”
Wow this game is such an exciting one! And best moments:
- hunters' reaction "seeing" fire in Distant Village LUL
- Thorns of Agony double kill at spire what the hell
I'm glad you liked it! That actually happened twice at Spire too, but I cut out the second time because we had some elevator rule confusion at the same time lol.
What double kill I though he did double hit.
@@fireb0rn even *godder*
@@fireb0rn For the elevators, what you might be able to do is get a mod to not allow elevators to change direction while moving. I’m not sure if it will solve elevator related annoyances entirely, but might go some way towards doing so
I just watched fireb0rn's charms tier list. So did Thorns of Agony go up from D tier now? 😅
"He may already be in city of tears"
"How!?"
"I don't know he's fucking fire"
This made me laugh way more than it should!
Bounce on my forehead is my favorite quote in this video
had tons of fun playing this for the first time, thanks for letting me join!! the amount of times we got outplayed is embarrassing 😅
This was a ton of fun, you really outplayed us. GG!
You did a nice job directing the resistance and keeping everyone organized
@@Blair5414 haha thanks.
Great job directing the other hunters! Super entertaining to watch
You did really well
you’re CRAZY good at deduction skills! like that was some genius educated guessing you did there, damn. it’s funny watching it over and seeing you guys always second guessing yourselves because you got pretty much all of what he was doing right!!!
I feel like this is not mentioned enough in the comments : not only are the rules getting more balanced and fair for both parties, you're also improving your editing more and more. I especially like how you use music, highlighting the tension moments
I am *so* impressed with tsira kura's deduction skills. They were so clever about everything it was amazing to watch!! Gonna go check out their streams now :)
The most entertaining times in these is when the hunters are desperately trying to figure out where you when, so this was a fun one for me.
Tsira is so unbelievably smart and knows the game so well it's actually scary
I feel like I spent the entire time having absolutely NO idea where you were xD
dreamers but explained in insults 🙏🙏
Your are cute
Hearing dung defenders theme makes me think of the new man on the internet song for him
Oh theres a song for dung defender too? Gotta check it out
@@scientificthesis let me know what you think of it. I love how jovial it is.

That was like a movie. Revealing all your powers to the hunters in the end was epic. Also it was very cool part of your preparation to final fight. And finally, congratz with win, fireborn!
When you did the deep nest and confused the hunters one quote popped in my head "What you did was sneaky, underhanded, and downright distasteful. I loved it." Honestly, loving the new rules and different ways you try and achieve your end goal of beating the game each time you play.
where’s that quote from ?
I feel like this was really well balanced, they got two early kills and it really helped, but since they never killed him again, the timer was really painful. It's rewarding more unorthodox thinking, and makes it really hard for the hunters to just camp an area, since there's the risk that you're doing something else to make everything easier completely uncontested.
I totally agree. It forces the hunters to actually kill him early instead of just swarming him at THK
that THK fight with "you're mine" furi OST just did it for me hahaha. That was soooo good
I completely forgot about that game and that ridiculous soundtrack. I'm gonna go watch a playthrough of it or three.
I am so mindblown. Beyond impressed. The editing? The music? Absolutely incredible, definitely one of the best Speedrunner vs. Hunters so far. ♡
Aw man, I'm spoiled now, but it was really my fault for reading the comments.
@@papuneru I'll edit my comment to avoid spoiling anyone else, forgive me. ♡
I got so hyped when "your mine" started playing during the end fight, such an awesome vid!
Every time “speedrunner vs” pop up in the feed is the fastest-no brainer instaclick
Man, tsira was just absolutely nailing those callouts
"WHEN THE HELL DID HE GET DREAM NAIL"
joke's on you, I'm not even there yet.
wow every time tsira_kura was guessing where fire was and getting it exactly right was amazing! but with being in the dark and it being thrown out ideas it's understandable but frustrating it always led nowhere. if they play again I'd love to see the others following their gut!
💙
Really appreciate the editing and commentary on this one. Crazy that the hunter lifelines did more harm than good this time.
"Thorns is an excellent charm" -Fireb0rn.
You should find a way to store your guy’s paths through hallownest, so you can make a speed lapse of everyone stumbling around trying to find/avoid eachother
(Just a thought, you could do this by having a 5th player stay in kings path and stay looking at map for the entire game)
6th cuz its a 1v4 so 5 players
@@N0w3Y343 yeah lmao
This is a great idea. Post game juke analysis with all the player movement. Just have a player sit and record their screen looking at the map the whole game.
I HAVE NOT FINISHED THE VIDEO YET LOL
Iconic Quotes: (They’re mostly Windy he’s hilarious)
- “Fire I can smell you!” - Windy
- “Can I fireborn skip? Like just use his head as a pogo?” - Windy
- “Fireborn is not ready for this I have 250 ping! I can hit him without being on the screen!” - Windy
- “I am expunging my mistakes.” - Windy
- “JUST BOUNCE ON MY FOREHEAD!” - Windy
- “I have,,, WAY too much rando knowledge……” - Tsira
- “He (Fire) is coming to your household” - Cysipy
- [cool skip] “But yeah it’s really fucking cursed” - Tsira
- “I’m nodding furiously on an elevator.” - Windy
- “JUST AS I WAS FUCKING MEMEING LIKE A DUMBASS!” - Tsira
"Mostly" is not the word.
@@TheAstralWitch I havent finished the video yet lol
Dang was this an intense challenge! One of my favorites already.
Getting to see you vs. Windette made this video the fastest click possible (especially since I've been causing hell in his streams during sub wars lol)
the end fight was SO saatisfying. This speedrun vs hunter is the one I laughed about the most
THIS WAS SO FUN TO WATCH i think this is the best speedrunners vs hunters episode!! aaaa the end was so satisfying xD the hunters did such a good job too!!
the effort you put into revising the rules definitely paid off, i think it's now PERFECT as it is
I got my little brother into this game and he finally beat radiance and he only sustained 4 hits. Then he did it agian using boy wayward compass and took 3 hits. I have never been more proud. He’s only 9 btw. A God Gamer in the making.
Dude I haven’t even killed radience yet what is your brother?
@@AltF-io3dy It’s not that hard, I have beaten it 5 times hitless
@@AltF-io3dy Raidance has quite slow attacks. Just abuse your invincibility frames with shade dash and d-dark.
@@nepnep615 You underestimate my ability to be the absolute worst at videogames.
I couldn't get past hornet 1 after so many tries and I rage quitted. A week passes and I finally attempt hornet again after watching a walkthrough and got past her. Im so bad at videogames
@@TerrariaLuvr Hornet is early game. You should just strive to do slightly better than the last time. Use every experience to learn. Every boss has an exploitable weakness in Hollow Knight. I know you can do it, bro.
Now that the ruleset is more balanced, the mind games are what make the difference.
This was really impressive, not just because of your skill in HK, but because you knew how the hunters would play. Truly magnificent.
I love how all the lifeline uses ended up hurting the hunters more than they helped
This was sick. I'm impressed at how good of a tactician tsira was!
Ya'll have really honed this ruleset into something special, damn
Was it Tsira with all the calls and knowledge of the game? They impressed me so much! The music was great and I loved the training montage.
Windette is such a naturally funny guy. I'm so glad he's moving up in the hollow knight world.
34:22 This upgrade compilation is so cool I love it!
26:07 I didn't realize you could just crystal dash through the dreamnail room like this that's so funny.
This might be an awful idea but...what if using a lifeline added time to the timer? That could create opportunities for you to try and confuse them so they use one.
I'm assuming this time cost would be instead of a limited amount of uses. Otherwise it's a straight nerf and doesn't change anything interesting.
I feel like balancing it would be a nightmare. As is, the timelines are a tool that will inevitably get used since there's a limited amount and no cost, you often hear the hunters decide to use it because "if we don't use it now when will we? No point in saving" which is good. If it's tied in to the time economy either it will be too cheap and hunters will use it every time they haven't seen him in 90 seconds or it will be too costly and they'll never be able to justify it 100% even if they really should use it, since they don't know how much value using it will have.
Interesting idea but I think the way it is now is probably best.
1:12
it took me a while to notice that fireborn has something again't saving grubs.
he even sensored this part :^V
I love the unintentional mind games that come from the hunters misinterpreting fire's funky routing
Dude, this run was friggin amazing with the juke there. They kinda juked themselves hardcore, believing you got the Dream Nail so fast and got Herrah.
These hunter videos have to be my favorite things on this channel. The new rule set made it so much more balanced and interesting. The anticipation was great!
This was great! Please do more! Thorns was pretty useful for escaping hunters, and I feel like D.Dark and its wide hitbox is a must for fighting 4 hunters and THK all at once. Regarding some of the hunter chatter, a fairly simple double fireball skip will get the player up to Salubra.
"That's TOO meta."
Which is exactly why Fireb0rn would do it, yes. When it's one man against multiple hunters, you have to get _really_ creative. If for no other reason than to saddle them with analysis paralysis on subsequent playthroughs.
Music choices are on point with this one. Makes it so much more intense’
I love how he changes "alert" themes to "caution" ones when he manages to lose them, lol
I love the way this was edited, especially the montage near the end. The rule set made this the most exciting challenge yet, and it was so cool to see the hunters predicting where you were!
Man, Maple Tsyrup's predictions were on point most of the time! She was literally inside Fire's head!
I think these rules are cool! The only suggestion I have is to have a "time played" counter. When you lose time for your deaths, it's hard to remember how long you've actually been playing and I think that information's important.
The combination of the strategic hiding, ability buffing, and cheeky little hops over the hunters made this extremely entertaining 🤣 I also absolutely LOVED the sound effects, especially when you slipped past a hunter into Hornet and timing of the music edited in time to mask shards. I was either cracking up or on the edge of my seat…or both!! Big applause to your hard work editing and your witty gameplay! What a fun video 🙌💕
I love this! This is your best balanced and most entertaining one left (and I've adored them from the beginning!). Great music, really added to the energy, and I appreciated how seamless the editing was. I didn't lose the thread of the pathing. Very fun! I can't wait for more!
Never have we seen that level of mindgame and bamboozling. Absolutely incredible gameplay
This time was so damn hype! The excitement and the thrill was there for the whole run! Can't wait for the next one, new rules make it awesomely balanced! GG my dude.
Dude I haven’t even finished the video but the way you platform and litteraly break their ankles lol I’m like sitting jaw dropped at 5:36 am rn
The music added so much, that was extremely great to watch. GG
When he went into deepnest and the super Mario world underground theme started playing it made me irrationally happy
That upgrades montage was _amazing_
I absolutely love your speed runner vs hunter videos fire! Favourite thing to see at the top of my recommended list. Keep up the AWESOME content:)
Fire PLEASE do way more of these! This has to be my favorite video you've ever done, and thats saying something, consistently just rolling out bangers after bangers between your deep discussions of things like Any Radiance or the player who almost changed NMG forever, and these, its insane, props to the grind of content your always making, have a great day man, i hope to aspire to your level of amazing content one day when i finally get started
"Ah! He is in!"
Erm, that's what she said?
_I had to. It was perfect._
I know the rules are really balanced RN, but I was thinking it would be funny if that as you lose time to being killed, you gain time when you free a grub(that's what there called right? The Lil guys in the jars? I just started playing hollow knight so idk)
Yes they are called grubs, but maybe he should gain 1 minute max or he could just search for grubs all the time
LOL Love the captions being back Fireb0rn! Though you not being able to hear them is an interesting twist!
Btw, this was relaly epic here honestly, Totally had me rooting for you
This is my favorite speedrunner vs hunter video because Fire lives inside the hunters’ heads rent free practically the whole time.
I love that they keep getting harder
That's what she said
Ah yes, a visionary
I loved the serie last year and I really enjoy this new rules set (even though I really miss the interaction and mindgame that was possible by you hearing the hunters). It seemed really hard for you last time but you showed having more time lets you get a lot more upgrades, that are kind of mandatory to beat hk, which means you can be at a lot more places than what was posible before ; and I believe the hunters here underestimated a bit what could be useful to you which allowed you to juke them more easily. Next instalment (which will hopefully happen) promise to be really good.
One last thing that I find unbalanced and think could be better is that, in the beginning of a run, ancestral mound is too much of a choke point and dying here 1 or 2 times is almost mandatory, I would suggest then to lower the time penalty to 5 or even 2min and to balance that I would also suggest to add a small time penalty in HK of 1 or 2min.
can't wait until the run where fire goes for longnail baldur kill to avoid mound
The music editing is FANTASTIC in this video
everything about this video was an absolute treat. the music, the commentary, the juking - god, i am SO impressed. going for all those upgrades with a few minutes on the clock got my heart racing. best hunters vs speedrunner video yet!
The woman read fire like a book. I was amazed how she predicted a los of his plays but then descarted the idea 🤣🤣
thats tsira kura and they go by "they"
@@HeXuanbathwater ups sorry I didn't know 😅😅
I may or may not have suggested to fire that he do deepnest first to throw hunters off in after an earlier game and then forgotten that I suggested it until after I saw him in deepnest lol
I found Windette just yesterday and he's really funny. Great to see him here!
Such an intense episode. Im glad to see this series coming back. I was so sad when it vanished for a few months but now im hype to watch you juke, outplay, and duel the hunters again!
Adding the subtitles explaining your thought process at any given time is just *chef's kiss* adds so much to the drama of the chase, whilst giving insight into your thought process- bravo! One thing that might be cool to add is subtitles for the hunters, colour-coded so they're easier to parse. I know that's a bit of extra work, especially bearing in mind how long these videos are, but it'd make chaotic moments easier to keep track of (also, i have friends who would love these videos, but they need subs when watching anything). All-in-all, 10/10 video, can't wait for more of this series!
A really good way to use that type of lifeline accurately would be to have all the hunters stay still while checking the map. That way they'd only see Fire moving
thats what they did for the first lifeline
@@nutegunray1618 oh! It seems I missed that, then XD
still holding out for a true ending 4HvS or a randomizer one 😩
Honestly, I don't think a randomizer one would be very fun. Half the fun of these is in juking, and there isn't much skill in juking if no one knows where a given item or upgrade is going to be.
True ending would be sweet though.
Finally getting around to watching this, and I can tell you listened to the feedback people were giving! It's great to see some of your thought process again, and putting more limitations on the hunters for the HK fight made it a lot more reasonable. Super fun to watch with all the confusion and the clever pathing and tricks! I always look forward to these! ❤
34:16 YO this moment was so epic like that anime power up after she said you’ll come back eventually
Black screen while saving grubs lmao
What if you guys did 3 Hunters vs 1 Runner + Traitor
There’s 4 hunters but one of them is secretly a traitor and needs to help the runner win, making one or two things easier for the hunter in tag case
The traitor can lie about lifelines, pretend to accidentally hit people, make distractions, etc
i think this is the video that unironically got me to give you a sub. i just really enjoyed seeing what was happening, and all the jukes and japes from you was entertaining as always
I've watched every single Hunter episode and this is honestly my fav so far! The rule changes are really good and I absolutely loved all those mindgames you did there
wow all the hunters played so well! Shame the map threw them off so much, or I think they would have had it! Also I love how much knowledge tsira has, I feel like she really took charge and knew what to do. I definitely think this is the best ruleset yet
Yeah I agree, they’re really well versed in the map of Hallownest!
Her calls were wrong like half the time lol. and yeah if they could learn how to use the lifelines properly, they could have won the run
This was the best one yet, phenomenal plays from everyone involved, well done fire
Thanks for adding those thought explanations at the bottom back, they're really helpful. I think this is my favourite one of these so far, so... nice.
Hard agree here - the commentary adds sooooo much to this video.
25:07 God damn it fire, there was no reason not to safe that grub :(
I got so pumped when I heard the song from Furi being used during that final fight. Great video and awesome jukes.
I can't help but smile whenever I see that there's a new hunters video. They're always a blast to watch.
27:31 The MGS music was awesome but Dedede music? Even better
Amazing ruleset. I'm rarely ever excited about anything but I was jumping up and down in excitement during the HK fight. This is just what I needed after a rough week, ty fire and company!
