I met EON under completely unrelated circumstances -- My wife knows EON's wife IRL, and we ran into each other while waiting to see Weird Al. We struck up a conversation, and EON mentioned speedrunning Zelda 2, and that's when I found out RBO was even a thing. "How the heck do you do that???" "Oh, you gotta glitch it out pretty bad." No kidding. Great run! I've been watching her practice streams for a while, and it's great to see a complete run start to finish. Great playing, and great entertainment.
32:32 all of the OoT sages (and Mido) are named after towns in this game (yes including Kasuto, which is the name of the Great Deku Tree) edit;; OoT was also meant to be a remake of Zelda II, at least as far as I remember
I'm only gonna say I don't think the faerie through the keyhole was intended because there's no instance of needing to do it ever in the game. It would've made for a nice puzzle to solve (like maybe that's how you get the magic key since the Sixth Palace doesn't have any regular keys lying around?) ...or if the game had had a proper Second Quest
I was playing on an AV Famicom (basically a Japanese NES) that was modded to output an RGB video signal. I used an OSSC to upscale the video so I could capture with an HD capture card. This is why the game video was so crisp.

Alternative title: Link rips through the fabric of space to to disturb Thunderbird's day off.
That bit about the enemies reading the controller inputs explains a lot hahaha I thought my strategies were just bad
Yeah it’s pretty common in games, especially fighting games like Mortal Kombat, Street Fighter 2 ect..

Any Zelda game without a water temple is a good Zelda game.
There's so many cool tricks in this run, glad it got to be shown off.
The Thunderbird fight had me on the edge of my seat and holding my breath after the hit. That was God level dodging

I love how she smiles the entire speedrun.
This run was awesome. The runner and the other commentators were really good too, very glad I caught it live!
Those glitched towns look like abstract paintings
Zelda II is one of my favorite games to run! This was a great run and i love EoN!!
Congrats for this amazing run! I love you all GDQ!
My next d&d character is going to be a knight that rides a whale just to spite that "what kind of knight would ride a whale" comment.
HEY! ok that does sound rad
Triton beastmaster ranger with the noble/knight background? Sounds like good times.
EON you're awesome! Thanks for the game play, your smile is contagious!
Such an awesome run. Creative routing and well played. GGs!
Every track in this game is a banger
D. Snodgrass agreed 100%
She's phenomenal! That Thunderbird fight was so tense!!
Awesome game play, easily my favorite run of GDQ 2020.
She did such a great job nailing all of those frame perfect glitches
I do love a good reverse boss order run. It's mostly just being confused and amazed about what in the world is going on XD
32:18 I never knew that! Cool factoid :)
Awesome run EON!
Dang I can't even beat this in regular mode. Congrats!
I've tried to play it a few times but this game is just too hard. It's the only main Zelda game I've never finished.
i was cheering her on the whole time! this was mesmerizing
Enchantress be playing 4D chess.
That was super impressive! EoN you must've taken forever to route this! Congrats!
Damn that thunderbird fight was a nail biter! Great run!!!
That run was awesome! She rocked that shit
Great run!
LET'S GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO-
EoN is super nice, she engages a lot with her audience, I suggest you follow her if you enjoy Z2!
Awesome run!!!!!!
I love this game
Damn, this is impressive!
Backwards zelda 2 ?! Impressive :o
I had never seen this game played this way before... one of my favorite game as a kid. Nice job on destroying the game!! ... and I love that smile! :)

...or if the game had had a proper Second Quest
i watched the whole thing!
Girl you rock. Ps you have such a beautiful smile. Keep being awesome!!
Geez I can't even beat the game normally without getting my ass kicked and she did it level 1 link at palace 8 and backwards. x_X
EoN killing it wow!
Cool run and I like the pronouns next to the name. Never seen that before. What a cool community.
I couldn't get through the first cave of this game

Wow, a personal reply from EoN. She continues to be super cool.
Great run enchantress from mike from Canada
Not really a fan of the forced game over (up A categorys, but she does good. )
Second on the smile!
The game is trash, but the run is 👌
