@EjazIbrahim Agreed I just went back and did another playthrough for the first time since TOTK dropped, and I had so much fun going back. Still had my windbomb muscle memory too!
We are currently streaming the Zonai run every Wednesday night at 6pm EST!! The full run can be found here → ua-cam.com/play/PLAjULYyNSE9Y3Vafi2E2VHum7ul9SarlD.html Edited down video of the first half → ua-cam.com/video/0X8Hdt9gP5A/v-deo.html
I know you already get enough of these, but I have an idea for a run. Rusted gear only. Allowing them to be refreshed with rock octorocks would be up to you but I think it’s an interesting concept
I hate to be a rat about it, but I'm going to repost my ideas for runs just because I do want them to be seen. But I believe this'll be the last time I post them. 1. Beat Totk as the Hero of The Sky Do the Quest Line where you fix the Giant Goddess statue and gain the Goddess Sword Do the Zelda Spottings Quest Line (as that is basically how Skyward Sword goes with the dowsing) Not allowed to use the Frog Set reward tho Only Equipment that resemble the ones in Skyward Sword are allowed (For example, the Wooden Shield; Wooden Shield, Knights Shield; Iron Shield, and Zora Shield; Sacred Shield) Outfit must be fully upgraded, and get the Goddess Fabric for the glider (that might just be the challenge of getting lucky from the Amiibo tho) Maybe stick primarily to the Sky? (Idk, you spend most of Skyward Sword on the ground anyways) 2. Beat Totk as the Hero of The Wind Get the Hero of Winds Set, and the Red Lion Sail Fabric Do all Luralin related quests, as well as all of the Pirate Events Complete the Labyrinth on the water in the Top Right corner of the map, forgot it's name (and maybe their sky and depths equivalents if you wish) And, here's the interesting part, you must stay primarily by the coast. You CAN leave, but if you do, you must save and set a time limit for how long you're out, if you're out past that you must reload the save and do what you were trying to all over again. 3. Beat TotK under the influence of Majoras Mask before the first Blood Moon You stick to primarily to the Depths ("Underworld" as its thought that Termina is a sort of "Death Dimension", its a whole narrative trope thing, the channel Tale Foundry has an interesting video on it) in this challenge as much as you can, and are allowed to use some gear from any of the possible mask transformations in Majoras mask. So that includes Zora and Goron gear, and potentially Korok gear as Deku stand-ins?? Armor can include Hero of Time stuff, maybe Dark Link stuff for being "deeper" under the influence, and potentially even all Fierce Deity armor if you wanna do a "breaking free" thing. But the mask must always stay on (unless you go for the Fierce Deity stuff) I added the Dark Link and Fierce Deity stuff as a possibility as an impromptu narrative weaved into the run might make for a more interesting watch, instead of just the pretending/sticking to a bit sort of thing you play around with on stream/in videos. 4. Dragon Runs for TotK Farosh, Dinreal, Nydra individual runs. With each one, you must stick to gear from their associated regions. As well as their armor sets and fully upgrade them Farosh Run: Faron Region Dinreal Run: Eldin Region Naydra Run: Lanayru Region MAYBE a Light Dragon run, it has no associated armor, so maybe, as the dragon is Zelda, you can use the Royal Guard set. The defender and savior of her majesty, freeing her from her curse! (Idk lol). As she has no associated area, maybe stick to sky gear, or maybe castle gear, or both honestly, I think both work. 5. Satori Run for TotK Get the Satori Armor and fully upgrade it, and only use gear from caves PLUS anything on Satori Mountain, as well as get all the Bubbl Gems 6. Depths Only Run The Depths, though expansive, are limited, as a Bloodmoon doesn't trigger down there (I think). There is ONE cooking pot in all of the Depths, so cooking and potions are possible down there. You must get the Miner and Gloom Sets as well as get all the legendary gear down there Honestly, if you ever need ideas, I'm down to help! Like honestly, these types of things I honestly love to think up. Once again, I think this is the last time I will be posting these specific ideas anyway Have a good day Croton!
Heyo you’re my second favorite YTer, why? Because you don’t ask to subscribe, you keep the intro really short, like under a half a minute sometimes, you should have like 3 million subscribers, not even kidding And now i have a video to watch in bed thanks
Whoo, new challenge! I was just rewatching some of your old challenges the other day! I'm so glad you're not abandoning botw, it's just as good as totk :)
Hey, I just wanted to tell you that your videos have helped me in ways I can't explain. The positivity, excitement, grit... everything. You are truly an inspiration. Thank you.
17:55 you can do this with any item including weapons. It generates infinite mass and can be used to open doors that usally are opened via a stasis obect
Theoretically if Link just had them shoot Ganon twice Ganon would evaporate and then he could stroll in with much less prep to beat Ganon’s broken body
Hey I just want to say I’ve been watching your videos for a while now and you’re probably my favorite Zelda UA-camr. All of your challenge runs are so good. I love how you try to keep things entertaining to watch while still putting in information about the game. Also, just a question, will there be any more BOTW challenge runs or is this the last one? Keep up the great work Croton!
I'm happy you enjoy them all!! ☺️ There will still be more BotW runs, I just slowed down a lot after TotK since I already played through most of my main ideas. But there's still a ton more TotK runs I wanna do!
It's so nice to see you visit Botw again and do another challenge 🥲 Not only is it nostalgic as it's what got me into your vids, but I also just have more a preference to this game over totk 🤭This was such a fun watch, with some hilarious timing oh my gosh (and great to draw zelda stuff to~) ! Much love to Vah Cow, she was and is a legend
Everyone says that this video being out in 2025 makes it refreshing, but I think what truly makes it refreshing is the lack of glitches like BLSS, fall damage cancel or BTB
19:00 i never even thought of using cryonis to get to this shrine, i always assumed the intended method was to climb the nearby mountain and glide down :skull:
In Divine beast vah naboris the weapon that the guardian scout dropped didn't fall through the ground it just despawns when the scout dies so you have to pick the sword up before it explodes
44:19 this works with any metal metal and boomerangs do it without needing like to touch the object (i think all bomerangs but defintely the giant one)
Its something fresh to see Breath of the wild challenge after a long time
I know right
It is AWESOME!!!!!!! THIS GAME IS SO MUCH BETTER THAN ITS SEQUEL
This may be your funniest video yet. The music, the editing, the jokes, all is on point 👌 Excellent work Croton
Much appreciated!! I had such a great time revisiting BotW after so long 😁☺️
@@Croton same i am playing it again as im saying this
@@Croton i love the princess peach showtime soundtrack used! it's one of my favorites of the game!
Botw in 2025 feels so refreshing for some reason
fr like botw will always be a classic

Wake up imaginary girlfriend, grab the half-eaten snacks, and lock in, cuz Croton has uploaded once again!

Ts hits hard 😭
@SeyrenSamin 👍
@SeyrenSaminwho’s your first favorite
@ samifying
Yay! Been rewatching the old challenge runs this week, and a gift has been uploaded!!!
It's been a while since I've seen runs like this one. Glad you're still up for a challenge in any of these amazing games
Whoo, new challenge! I was just rewatching some of your old challenges the other day!
I'm so glad you're not abandoning botw, it's just as good as totk :)
Shoutout that one knights claymore that survived the entire playthrough
Glad to see the GOAT of Zelda runs back with another banger
“We’ve never died to that though” -famous last words
It's been a while since we last got a botw or totk run, so it's great to see your back croton with another surtified banger of a video
Love taht spelling
@miraculousmongoose ha ah ha very funny (rolls his eyes)
I love how Croton smiles the whole time, even if something bad happen in the game :)
Hey, I just wanted to tell you that your videos have helped me in ways I can't explain. The positivity, excitement, grit... everything. You are truly an inspiration. Thank you.
You know 2025 starting good when Croton posts
17:55 you can do this with any item including weapons. It generates infinite mass and can be used to open doors that usally are opened via a stasis obect
Theoretically if Link just had them shoot Ganon twice Ganon would evaporate and then he could stroll in with much less prep to beat Ganon’s broken body
19:51 That toreador march motif just came out of nowhere
It’s incredible how much thought you put into these. Keep up the great work looking forward to seeing what you do in the future.
Another Banger by Croton from The Nintendo Switch, excited already to watch this gamer go crazy
It's amazing how 8 years later you can still find new tricks and challenges in this game. Boarding Va Naboris without Riju or a shield was insane.
Finally a new one! Ever since i got BOTW i've binged almost all "Can you beat botw using only ___"! They are really fun to watch! :D
Dude what?
@@KingArthur1223 ???
@ shut up
@Smasher1he sent another comment that got deleted saying “shut up” I would block him and move on with my day
No way he uploads a botw challenge just as I was watching the sheikah gear run
I was watching his botw gerudo run the day before! 😭🙏
@@ShadowbootShadowboot-en9fkSame. Just watched the Gerudo run and the Phantom run

@ that’s great! 😁
This feels like the only labyrinth run and I am all for it
32:05 woah, I've never seen that before!
The rules for the run are simple " the start for every great video
Why does my brain want the square bombs to have square explosions even after all these years…
I’ve been waiting for another botw speed run for so long!! Do an elemental only run!
It's so nice to see you visit Botw again and do another challenge 🥲 Not only is it nostalgic as it's what got me into your vids, but I also just have more a preference to this game over totk 🤭This was such a fun watch, with some hilarious timing oh my gosh (and great to draw zelda stuff to~) !

The Goat is back, another amazing video as always Croton, love your stuff❤
Croton hitting us with another banger of a video🥶🔥🔥
I watched one of these live for the first time. I’m looking forward to watching this one 😊
57:08 Was literally thinking to myself "is he gonna see the weapons disappear"
After 3 months the legend has uploaded!
Finally a new video in like 1 billion years
Our gluten-loving King has returned! Really amazing to see you still have speedrun ideas!
Flower blight is like the ThatVeganTeacher of flowers
Everyone says that this video being out in 2025 makes it refreshing, but I think what truly makes it refreshing is the lack of glitches like BLSS, fall damage cancel or BTB
I swear I just had this idea. This is insane. Another great video Croton
OMG BOTW CONTENT IN YEAR OF OUR LORD 2025
Who will thought this game will be 8 years old
I’ve waited for this kind of thing ever since I learned of the Devine Beasts! They’re my favorite non-living video game characters!
babe wake up, new croton video dropped
Loopermama at 2:35, you arent even wrong 🤯
19:00 i never even thought of using cryonis to get to this shrine, i always assumed the intended method was to climb the nearby mountain and glide down :skull:
me too LOOL when i played botw for the first time i did everything the hard way
My very first playthrough I made a cryonis staircase up the nearby waterfall to glide in....needless to say I worked harder not smarter
We can all guess what he’ll do next. lol “Tears of the Kingdom: Temple only run.”
OH MY GOSH CROTON UPLOADDDDD YAAAAS
i’ve missed these breath of the wild challenges, do more of them ❤
oh how i’ve missed these
The wait is over my friends 😌
“Shut up I’m watching a Breath Of The Wild challenge run after nearly 2 years of Tears being out”
Only shrines next?
You should beat botw with only loot from shrines
Oh my Goddess I loved previous challenge ones
Yoooooo he made a video speed run again
wake up, crouton uploaded
I’ve been awaiting this video for a long time.
I was so surprised to see a botw video I haven't seen yet but it was posed 30 mine ago did not expect that
YAY! back to breath of the wild!
Does the Final Trial count as a Divine Beast?
Technically yes!! But we already had plenty of loot after the 4 beasts that I just went to the finale
@Croton alright thanks I just wondered if it counted. Good on you for making the challenge even more challenging!
I'm so happy you made a new breath of the wild video😁
In Divine beast vah naboris the weapon that the guardian scout dropped didn't fall through the ground it just despawns when the scout dies so you have to pick the sword up before it explodes
44:19 this works with any metal metal and boomerangs do it without needing like to touch the object (i think all bomerangs but defintely the giant one)
lets goo another croton upload
16:37 was that Turkey In The Straw?
Croton BOTW run is back 0:55
I respect your work
Shrine only
You should have done the DLC divine beast too! That would have fit the challenge
3:49 I thought you was looking at Grotter
Ohhhhh my freakin‘ god neeeeewwwww croton video❤❤❤love your videos ❤❤❤❤
Is this the last equipment run?
Hey dude why did U never use urboasas fury
I was saving it because I was expecting to struggle a lot more in the finale 😅 I'm sorry urbosa
I just restarted a botw challenge, and i have been learning how to wind bomb, i cheesed so many shrines.
i didnt even know it was possible to parry waterblight's spear!
Fire idea ngl
Boko only run, all divine beast powers, and has to beat all divine beasts and gannon
croton if I make you a Minecraft skin will you do a dawn craft or other legend of Zelda Minecraft mod challenge
wow this is unique, do you agree??
You should do some challene runs with trials of master sword , if health is an issue just use the glitch to steal thy master sword
Very impressive. So how about just runes?
When you entered the sanctum i was wondering why you didn't do the trick with vah medoh then i saw the cutscene and felt stupid haha
I’m trying your guardian only run
Happy new year
How do you keep thinking of things
Im finally under 23 hours 😂 hi Croton ❤
You should do a video were you you can only use loot from shrines
DLC run please
im geting dejuvu for some reason 🤨🤨🤨🤨🤨
Can you beat the game with only the items you get in chests in shrines?
HES BACK
FINALLY HES BACKKKK❤❤❤❤
YESSSSS CROTON YOU POSTED!!!!!!
Yessssss love these vids
Croton upload🎉🎉
59:43 I’m gonna guess seven
Traveler only run?
He’s still playing botw
