The suit up card saved you several times, but you hit max clank every single run this phase. Not to mention the fact that most of the times you needed to be saved was due to having max clank. Its a cool card but i think it might need to sit out a phase or two to see how it goes, especially since you will be losing the resistance beacon, Wardens will 1 shot you with or without the armor.
There was the one time where the armour saved him when he got pincered by the two ravagers right at the start by the right side stairs down to basement, but I think that's outweighed by the multiple times he quickly got max clank and got vexed.
@@aji_jacobson That's more because of Etho's playstyle. If he were to adopted one where he is sneaking most of the time, clank would almost never be a problem and the card would still be OP in situations where you need it with Willy.

Yeah definitely. Everytime he goes down, you can see the shrieker particle heading into the wall where the in the direction of the piston. And you can hear a piston sound right after.
@@tehpyono2203 that skulk particle was there in previous phases, it would trigger a shrieker when going down. seems that wasn't hard enough, so it got nerfed lol
For those who weren't there, imagine watching Etho try and fail to get out of a pit for 35 minutes in real time. Just a half hour of watching him crouch under that ledge waiting for ravagers to waunder away, half way through he accidently lured another over so there were two ravagers trying to nibble his bits being jostled around by pistons, but our man never gave up, I was proud of him.
@@VoltageShock30it's funny because Etho could have actually got past the stuck ravager on level 1 by going through the cobwebs in the wall, but I don't think he saw that.
@@pyv0x733 looked at Tango’s stream and the Ravager’s butt was blocking it. Possibly could’ve done it if he sneaked past it, but the water current could be too strong and the moment he landed in one block path he got hit. So who knows?🤷🏾♂️
I had absolute faith Etho was going to make it out and was shocked when he died! The entire 54 minute run was amazingly entertaining regardless of its outcome. Etho is such a star
@@SpaghettiEnterprises Every time a repair kit is used, a calibrated sculk sensors senses it and makes a piston activate for a single tick to do one hit point of damage to Rusty when the game resets. That's also why you can't repair Rusty more than once, you can't repair an iron golem if it's at full health
Hey Etho! I noticed you're checking the duration on jump boost to determine how much longer it's got. But due to the nature of beacon effects you'll never have more than 15s of it at once. I just noticed it led to a couple misjudgements is all. Best of luck in the dungeon!
I can't believe Mojang hasn't fixed it yet, it shouldn't show any time until the beacon is disabled or you're out of range, but they've had this half-finished mechanic in the game for 10 years.
@@csongorzih5094 With the way Tango implemented it, I believe he has a counter that triggers a certain number of times based on the card played to activate the beacon in 15 second intervals, not necessarily keep the beacon on for the entire duration from something like a hopper clock. So even if there was something like an infinite duration indicator, it’s not something that would be useful in the context of decked out (plus checking your jump boost to see an infinite time limit left wouldn’t be that much more useful regardless). I just feel like complaining that mojang hasn’t “fixed” beacons is a little misguided because any change would not solve the problems of timing or durations. even in vanilla, at the very most having an infinite duration on beacons would only tell you if you’re in range of the effect or not.
@@bloodwolf2609 I don't think the UI should contain inaccurate information, even if experienced players know exactly what it means. I did not know how Decked out does it, but perhaps if beacon counters were already different then he would have implemented it differently.
56:49 Can we just appreciate this seamless transition? And just... all the transitions in Etho's videos? He makes us feel like we are seeing everything even if there are cuts. And just... all of Etho's decked out videos. Damnit, all of Etho's videos. Just... Etho in general...
I love the change in tactics (15:34) because: Does it matter which hermit submitted the most tomes when Decked Out is closed? No, because it’s closed! But does it matter which hermit had the most fun? Yes, because it’s closed! I think you should play in the way that you enjoy.
A basic viewer: "Woah, you got out of that pit fast!" People who know: "Woah, you edited the pit part down so much!" On a serious note, I think you edited the whole run well to keep in the important parts and keep the pacing good.
@@Bestsoft100 Yeah, I was sad about that too. Though I guess it only made sense in the context of Etho being stuck there forever. As most of the pit part was edited out of the video, the slap could seem out of place.
Glad that etho is prioritizing cards over winning. There are so many cool cards in this game that are realistically quite bad, so it's comforting to know that all the work that must've gone into designing the art, programming the redstone, etc isn't going to waste and they should all hopefully get bought at least once
@@melsunday1991 When it comes to indie games (which DO basically is) I always like to remember how much individualized attention must go into every tiny aspect of the game that I literally would never think about, but it was done because the experience would've been worse if it wasn't
2:01:38 According to the Minecraft fandom wiki, the chances of a mature berry bush yielding 3 berries per harvest is 50/50, so to get three berries 3 times in a row is a 12.5% chance.
Love the selflessness and humility Etho. Changing objectives while on top isn't a decision to scoff at. Most people would simply try to win, but to change your objective to collection to create more interest in the game (for yourself and other hermits) is commendable and why I have happily watched every video for years. Love the increased content Etho, hope you are feeling good with everything going on as well.
For anyone wondering why Etho had a blackstone block on his hotbar, it's because he sat in the pit so long Tango broke a block to punch him and he picked up one. EDIT: I encourage anyone who hasn't to watch the uneditted version of Etho's first run (Tango's POV through Twitch VoD). The full length really portrays how tense and nerve-racking this run really was, and why everyone watching was meming on Etho so hard.
One thing I really like about decked out so far is that, aside for the level three key barrel, you play the whole game without using UI. Everything fits in your hot bar and you don’t have to open your inventory at all
I would assume the flavor text on "the slab" is referring to how a large portion of the community regards you as the OG. I know you don't see yourself that way, but a lot of people do, and it's like what some guy said that I saw in a compilation video of people's reaction to you being in MCC..."Etho is your favorite minecrafter's favorite minecrafter" :) Thanks for the decked out content, Etho. Hope you are enjoying making these videos as much as we enjoy watching them.
I really appreciate Etho editing this video in a way that enhances viewer experience. All the cuts, the brightness and contrast change so that we can see better... It should have taken a lot of time to edit this hours of footage. Thank you Etho!
Etho your 100% card collection quest is so great. Initially I was bummed to hear you changing direction but if you pull this off you will have truly mastered the game... like we already know you can take 1st place, now you're aiming even higher. absolute savage

I like the 100% card collection challenge. It allows you to make decks designed to do only one thing really well and make some insane runs. I don’t see the value in crowns if the shards are never available so an ember deck would would be fun to see. It would definitely make buying rare cards easier.
@@AregPonewhich was still a good idea because he was expecting etho (or someone else) to do the same. It might seem like overkill but he didn’t know that etho changed his strategy this round. But I guess if you want to win, you have to assume your opponent’s doing the same if not better than you.
@@jaadmaan8156 I'm pretty sure he said phases 3 and 4 were also deck building weeks, the difference is he isn't deck building, but card collecting, if he doesn't have it, he wants to have it. There were many times he bought the big pack of tomes because he didn't want to buy cards which he didn't have. Now he'll buy them to see how good they actually are so unlikely to buy big packs. Essentially, what you said though, he'll get a lower amount of points but still be in the running due to his current high point, though Cub could give him a run if he realizes that he only needs 15 tomes for first place each week. Might be worth it for Etho to save up some tomes to keep the other Hermits guessing, lol
Honestly it's far more fun watching you play to have fun than play to win. The more fun you're having, the more fun it is to watch. That's what matters and that is the real win.
It was introduced exclusively in an April Fools update called "Java Edition 2.0" or "Minecraft 2.0" back in 2013@@prestachio9601 I can't believe it's been over 10 years, I can remember the update like it was yesterday.
that one trap door that always seems to close when you go through it seems to be wired to do so. that's just quite the coincidence otherwise, ya know? so with that in mind, i think it's more valuable to be used as an exit than an entrance to that area, so maybe consider entering that room from a different way and then leaving through the ladder. food for thought
So in the run where he was questioning the value of Suit Up, it let him survive 2 consecutive Sonic Shrieks. Though Tango is removing the Resistance Beacon from it, so that's not gonna happen again
The ranged attack wardens use penetrates armour, it always does 4 hearts of damage so it's useless in that regard. It's useful for more care free/risky playstyles, but ethos issue is clank & hazard, honestly he probably need to trim his deck down 10+ cards to get the necessary cards more consistently.
@@mpunk9932 I think Etho might stick with it just because it's "more fun," but yeeeeeeeeeahh, I know a lot of the reason the phase was so rough was because of the level 3 changes, but I think that card was really holding him back, especially when you consider that without it he's more likely to move more carefully since getting hit is so bad.
@@AllSystemFailure I understand the conventional deckbuilding wisdom of using fewer cards for reduced variance, but having more cards delays stumbles. If you run a deck with only 15 cards, you're going to be eating nothing but stumbles by ~9 minutes into the run, which means an automatic +1 clank per minute from minute 10 onwards (not to mention the 4 stumble cards that will have already accrued by that point.) Meanwhile, a deck with 40 cards will become filled with only stumble cards at ~25 minutes into the run (by which point 10 stumbles will have already been shuffled into the deck.) In essence, every card you add to your deck dilutes the growing pool of stumbles that accumulate over the course of the run, which gives you more time in the dungeon (on average.)
Fantastic phase. What a nail-biter! Really glad I saw the whole of your first run on stream, but you edited it superbly well. Smart move to build your deck at this stage. I think it'll really pay off later. Looking forward to Phase 6. Good luck!
I believe the subtext on The Slab is more of a reference on how inspirational you were on the current generation of Minecraft players, including the hermits themselves
2:05:32 - This has to be the best Warden kill till now. Giving Etho hope that he would escape with Speed Boost, getting him close to the exit corridor, only to boop him down to the middle floor of the Black Mines. Tango will be so satisfied knowing that Etho was killed by the Warden this way.
I love that everyone has been having so much fun in multiplayer recently. Decked Out has been such a highlight of the year, and the other new series(es) seem to have tons of exciting stuff on the horizon. Cheers!
etho so happy you’re enjoying decked out and all the different series on the channel right now, but would love to see your perspective of the team canada ctm maps from recently. they will always have a special place in our hearts!
at 1:06:30 he talks about generating a lot of Clank. And just after that activates a shrieker. But it doesnt generate a Clank AND you can hear a Piston moving! i Think Etho stumbled across a secret without noticing!
@@John-lh1qx he has 3 Clank Block at 1:06:25 and generates 1 Clank at 1:06:27. So now he is at 2 Clank Block. The Shrieker i am talking about gets activated at 1:06:34 and he stays 2 Clank Block until 1:06:44 when he activates another Shrieker. So no. The Shrieker i am talkin about does not activate Clank.
I really like the change of goals. The gap between the top and the bottom of the leaderboard is pretty large already, and as it gets to the final rounds some of the runs might bet boring if you are only competing for tomes. I think the best part of decked out is the variety of decks that people have, but most of those decks are built out of circumstance. It would be cool to see what you could put together if you really wanted to specialize
I think that the only thing that reduces a bit my enjoyment is that gap. And that some of the players that are behind are there in great part because of bad luck. Like Gem not getting keys in certain runs (I'm not saying that Etho doesn't deserve his placement, I'm saying that Gem deserved more points in previous weeks).
There's also a 'hidden' benefit to Reckless Charge - since it means you're going to want to sprint for the next 8 seconds and not sneak, it kinda encourages you to make more progress in the dungeon than you would by moving cautiously! (Well, unless you backtrack to find a shrieker to set off, haha)
As much as I would love to just see you win, I think buying every card will be much more fun to watch and fun for you so I personally love this new approach
The wardens definitely have something against Etho now. What did you do Tango!? I feel like Suit Up works so well for Cub because he doesn't play as carefully and often takes hits, while you have bigger issues with clank.
Love that you increase brightness by power of editing when in level 3. Can't get around the pitch black blindness, but it does help in general. Thank you.
Honestly, I am totally fine with your "new strategy" to collect all the cards. I think it will be super fun (plus I believe you'll win either way....!) These DO2 movies you've been putting out are super fun. Also for me this is totally the right amount of editing!
I love the new card buying strategy - hopefully the other Hermits decide to go for tomes to keep things competitive. I think some have started giving up on that, which is sad
Yeah, it’s very sad. Etho did 13 when Hermits were doing less than 5. Then Cub was doing well too so he bought tomes, tied w/ Etho, and went on to win Phase 5. Etho also doesn’t seem to have done too well due to all the changes and lvl 3 losses. Don’t know abt the results since I refuse to know anything abt it until I watch all the videos for phase 5.
Checked to see if you had posted this phase quite yet while at work today and you had just posted it 15mins prior to me checking! Couldn't wait to get home to watch. Thanks for keeping up with putting these massive compilations together!
Not a lot of wins, but tons of excitement! I think level 3 is a lot more exciting now, especially with suit up as the wardens aren't just an instant death. However, I think a glass-looter deck might be more suited to Etho, as the amount of Clank generated is insane.
Thanks for brightening the footage when the wardens hit you with blindness, it makes it so much easier to watch! Also, I love these Decked Out videos you do!
still rooting for you to win, but i’m glad you’re playing with a strategy that’ll make you have more fun with it, you enjoying yourself is what makes the videos the most fun to watch!
I think the problem with the generation of clank is all those speed buff cards you have + suit up. Running around with speed buff makes you pass many more shriekers, but cards don't come faster even if you move quicker.
21:00 That speed-sneak jump you mentioned is sprint-crouch-jumping! It’s where you hold sprint and sneak, then let go of sneak for a moment mid jump! If done right you can be sneaked as you jump and land, but get a little extra boost mid-jump. If this isn’t helpful or already known then by all means ignore the comment, but a sprint-sneak-jump strategy to move around level 3 faster might be cool to see.
I assure you I still enjoy Tango's Decked Out 2 and your game play of it. I still re-watch Decked Out 1 runs because they were so entertaining. Wish there were more of them...like that 7 hours of footage you promised that one time. thanks for posting your playthroughs.
Suit up does seem to get you to max clank a lot faster. But it also saves you from a lot of situations. And another bonus is when you do take a hit, it will take MUCH less berries and time to get back to full HP from that hit.
Love how Suit Up keeps saving you in situations that it caused itself
Lol, that's a pretty good way to explain it. I think that card is probably the single biggest problem for him this phase.
@@Cheesehead302 It will be really interesting to see Suit Up card being used without Resistance 2 this phase. How many hits can anyone survive with only Diamond Chestplate and Leggings?

Just a half hour of watching him crouch under that ledge waiting for ravagers to waunder away, half way through he accidently lured another over so there were two ravagers trying to nibble his bits being jostled around by pistons, but our man never gave up, I was proud of him.
Would’ve been great if Tango realized the possibility of the stuck Ravager on lvl 1, but he was enjoying the spectacle that is Etho
@@VoltageShock30it's funny because Etho could have actually got past the stuck ravager on level 1 by going through the cobwebs in the wall, but I don't think he saw that.
@@pyv0x733 looked at Tango’s stream and the Ravager’s butt was blocking it. Possibly could’ve done it if he sneaked past it, but the water current could be too strong and the moment he landed in one block path he got hit. So who knows?🤷🏾♂️
I had absolute faith Etho was going to make it out and was shocked when he died!
The entire 54 minute run was amazingly entertaining regardless of its outcome. Etho is such a star
No wonder gem waa so mad 😂
"You don't wanna know what Tango does to iron golems" lmao Rusty would be traumatised
Maybe the real, secret ending of DO2 is to free Rusty
I mean Tango's Artifact is "the dungeon master's key" with the flavour text, "I wonder what does it open"@@StuffandThings_
Wait anyone here see how Tango designed it to damage the golem between runs?
@@SpaghettiEnterprises Every time a repair kit is used, a calibrated sculk sensors senses it and makes a piston activate for a single tick to do one hit point of damage to Rusty when the game resets. That's also why you can't repair Rusty more than once, you can't repair an iron golem if it's at full health
I appreciate how Etho increases brightness of the video every time he gets blinded by the wardens
haven’t watched this yet BUT I know for a fact there’s a 54 minute run that made my entire day watching tango’s liverstream
The very first run, in fact
Me too, first minute into the video I recognised this epic run
@@hello_user2685 love that he left out the 30 minutes of berry watching 😂
I watched that live on Tango's stream too. It was so funny I hope to see a tribute to it in the next phase lol
@@MeXoof it was more entertaining than watching sports 😂
1:22:25 from all the years watching Etho, I’ve never heard him laugh like that 😊
He sounded like JoeHills tbh it was unnerving lol
@@miniciominiciominicio I literally thought the same thing lol that is The joe laugh
ikr? Caught my attention too
@@miniciominiciominicioright he sounds just like him xD
Hey Etho! I noticed you're checking the duration on jump boost to determine how much longer it's got. But due to the nature of beacon effects you'll never have more than 15s of it at once. I just noticed it led to a couple misjudgements is all. Best of luck in the dungeon!
Good point!
I can't believe Mojang hasn't fixed it yet, it shouldn't show any time until the beacon is disabled or you're out of range, but they've had this half-finished mechanic in the game for 10 years.
@@csongorzih5094 With the way Tango implemented it, I believe he has a counter that triggers a certain number of times based on the card played to activate the beacon in 15 second intervals, not necessarily keep the beacon on for the entire duration from something like a hopper clock. So even if there was something like an infinite duration indicator, it’s not something that would be useful in the context of decked out (plus checking your jump boost to see an infinite time limit left wouldn’t be that much more useful regardless).
I just feel like complaining that mojang hasn’t “fixed” beacons is a little misguided because any change would not solve the problems of timing or durations. even in vanilla, at the very most having an infinite duration on beacons would only tell you if you’re in range of the effect or not.
This is a really good point! Maybe there should be a noise to alert the player that it's going to run out since you otherwise can't tell
@@bloodwolf2609 I don't think the UI should contain inaccurate information, even if experienced players know exactly what it means. I did not know how Decked out does it, but perhaps if beacon counters were already different then he would have implemented it differently.
56:49 Can we just appreciate this seamless transition? And just... all the transitions in Etho's videos? He makes us feel like we are seeing everything even if there are cuts.
And just... all of Etho's decked out videos.
Damnit, all of Etho's videos. Just... Etho in general...
xD he did cut out a lot of the 53 minute pit run
I sense a crush
I love the change in tactics (15:34) because:
Does it matter which hermit submitted the most tomes when Decked Out is closed? No, because it’s closed!
But does it matter which hermit had the most fun? Yes, because it’s closed!
I think you should play in the way that you enjoy.
Playing to win is also fun!
But what about basking in the glory of having won decked out?😟
@@sosmarr5933Etho already got that last time
For the viewer, the minigame about the tomes is almost irrelevant. Deckbuilding is where the runs can get more interesting.
Realistically he's still gonna win
I can’t believe he forgot about Rusty in that run toward the end where he literally bounded up over that fence! Right next to him! 😢🤦♂️
bro i was yelling at my screen 😂
Same, I was screaming. It was right there
A basic viewer: "Woah, you got out of that pit fast!"
People who know: "Woah, you edited the pit part down so much!"
On a serious note, I think you edited the whole run well to keep in the important parts and keep the pacing good.
The fact that the video is still 2 hours shows how interesting etho runs are
He edited out tango slap :(
@@Bestsoft100 Yeah, I was sad about that too. Though I guess it only made sense in the context of Etho being stuck there forever. As most of the pit part was edited out of the video, the slap could seem out of place.
The 54 minute run 😂🔥
the hermits seething in chat really tickled me
1:39:09 "I have no excuses, theres no loot & scoot or anything messing me up" he says immediately as his loot & scoot runs out 💀
Glad that etho is prioritizing cards over winning. There are so many cool cards in this game that are realistically quite bad, so it's comforting to know that all the work that must've gone into designing the art, programming the redstone, etc isn't going to waste and they should all hopefully get bought at least once
This ! As a game dev, it really feels nice when the players try out and appreciate every feature we work hard on. It just- makes me happy haha
@@melsunday1991 When it comes to indie games (which DO basically is) I always like to remember how much individualized attention must go into every tiny aspect of the game that I literally would never think about, but it was done because the experience would've been worse if it wasn't
2:01:38 According to the Minecraft fandom wiki, the chances of a mature berry bush yielding 3 berries per harvest is 50/50, so to get three berries 3 times in a row is a 12.5% chance.
Well yes, but see- are you really gonna trust Wikipedia? 🤓
well the first one was actually 2
Loved Etho getting his own artifact. His reaction was awesome 😂
Love the selflessness and humility Etho. Changing objectives while on top isn't a decision to scoff at. Most people would simply try to win, but to change your objective to collection to create more interest in the game (for yourself and other hermits) is commendable and why I have happily watched every video for years. Love the increased content Etho, hope you are feeling good with everything going on as well.
For anyone wondering why Etho had a blackstone block on his hotbar, it's because he sat in the pit so long Tango broke a block to punch him and he picked up one.
EDIT: I encourage anyone who hasn't to watch the uneditted version of Etho's first run (Tango's POV through Twitch VoD). The full length really portrays how tense and nerve-racking this run really was, and why everyone watching was meming on Etho so hard.
The whole run is so funny because everyone outside the dungeon is so annoyed in the chat and Tango is just tearing his hair out
ah yes, Tango tearing his "hair" out
LET. ME. IN.
@@slumber1492You really did him like that. 🥲
@@slumber1492wait, he's BALD?
One thing I really like about decked out so far is that, aside for the level three key barrel, you play the whole game without using UI. Everything fits in your hot bar and you don’t have to open your inventory at all
But the hot bar is a UI along with the inventory and when you hit ESC to access those menus they are all UI.
@@benjaminsorenson well yeah but you know what I mean. You don’t have to open another menu or anything to play the game
@@benjaminkpope , there is no "well yeah, but you know what I mean." UI is UI, period.
I would assume the flavor text on "the slab" is referring to how a large portion of the community regards you as the OG. I know you don't see yourself that way, but a lot of people do, and it's like what some guy said that I saw in a compilation video of people's reaction to you being in MCC..."Etho is your favorite minecrafter's favorite minecrafter" :) Thanks for the decked out content, Etho. Hope you are enjoying making these videos as much as we enjoy watching them.
I really appreciate Etho editing this video in a way that enhances viewer experience. All the cuts, the brightness and contrast change so that we can see better... It should have taken a lot of time to edit this hours of footage. Thank you Etho!
Etho your 100% card collection quest is so great. Initially I was bummed to hear you changing direction but if you pull this off you will have truly mastered the game... like we already know you can take 1st place, now you're aiming even higher. absolute savage
I'm still bummed.
@@rusinoe8364It gives some potentially fun card combinations. So I like it

Ends Phase 5 with 35 crowns (Ended Phase 4 with 40 crowns.) With 9 tomes submitted, Etho is hoping for 3 points (which would get him 3rd or 4th place).
Does he do it?! Wait a week for Etho's next HC episode.
(Or watch Tango's October 31st VOD called "Phase 5 Results and Phase 6 Begins! And Introducing...Pancakes!" Results start at 3:15, Etho shards given at 10:11.
Etho, if you don't mind, could you please copy/paste these into your description so we can have chapters automatically with them? Whenever someone does your timestamps, it would be really nice for all of us. (If you have the time to spare, you could even go back to Episode# 13-17 and do it with those existing timestamps. I did you see you pin one of them last time which you could easily copy/paste!) But I didn't see any yet for this episode so I'm made my own!

I like the 100% card collection challenge. It allows you to make decks designed to do only one thing really well and make some insane runs. I don’t see the value in crowns if the shards are never available so an ember deck would would be fun to see. It would definitely make buying rare cards easier.

@jsw973 yeah, turns out Cub was the only one to submit a large amount of tomes, at 23.
Oh I think I just touched Willy
@@AregPonewhich was still a good idea because he was expecting etho (or someone else) to do the same. It might seem like overkill but he didn’t know that etho changed his strategy this round. But I guess if you want to win, you have to assume your opponent’s doing the same if not better than you.
Haven't watched yet. If my math is right run nine starts at 1:34:45, and the video is 2 hours and 10 minutes? So a near 40-50 minute run?
I think it’s funny that Etho “not trying to win” still tied with Gem for this phase
6 previous phase tomes
@@knulllord654he traded two at the beginning, so 4
If etho wins now without it being his immediate goal… I’ll be incredibly impressed.
Considering how card luck goes w/ high win rate, it’s still probably tome heavy. Or the artifacts he pulls are high.
it's pretty impossible to win if your objective is building your deck, you'll submit like 5 tomes and someone else will submit 30
@@ricksterliasso he’ll get 3 points for 4th placee and the sucker who submits 30 will only get 6…
He has a pretty comfortable lead already
@@jaadmaan8156 I'm pretty sure he said phases 3 and 4 were also deck building weeks, the difference is he isn't deck building, but card collecting, if he doesn't have it, he wants to have it. There were many times he bought the big pack of tomes because he didn't want to buy cards which he didn't have. Now he'll buy them to see how good they actually are so unlikely to buy big packs. Essentially, what you said though, he'll get a lower amount of points but still be in the running due to his current high point, though Cub could give him a run if he realizes that he only needs 15 tomes for first place each week. Might be worth it for Etho to save up some tomes to keep the other Hermits guessing, lol
That lighting filter you added for level 3 does make it easier to see but it gives off so much horror movie energy :)
Thank you for changing the lighting for the warden. Makes it easier to watch without headaches :)
Honestly it's far more fun watching you play to have fun than play to win. The more fun you're having, the more fun it is to watch. That's what matters and that is the real win.
Imagine being so legendary that mojang adds you to their game
How did they add etho to the game?
@@prestachio9601they added an ethoslab to the game in a temporary update. Not an EthosLab though.

@@aidenbettridge4878 that's not added by mojang though
I've been loving all the Etho and Rusty interactions. We need a fanart of them so badly
44:46
I just saw the strat talk, and I love your idea of getting all the cards to play any crazy way you want and maximize the fun. Mad respect
Double bat spawns in October could be why the wardens are so mad rn
Ah yes, we finally get to see *the* run from your perspective. I can’t wait!
I wish he didnt cut the part where Tango punched him in the pit 😂
that one trap door that always seems to close when you go through it seems to be wired to do so. that's just quite the coincidence otherwise, ya know? so with that in mind, i think it's more valuable to be used as an exit than an entrance to that area, so maybe consider entering that room from a different way and then leaving through the ladder. food for thought
ye but it gets triggered from going to the gold area so even if you went around, it would close before you could leave
So in the run where he was questioning the value of Suit Up, it let him survive 2 consecutive Sonic Shrieks. Though Tango is removing the Resistance Beacon from it, so that's not gonna happen again
That doesn‘t sound like a good idea to me, considering the trade off, that suit up has.
that card is garbage as soon as he does its almost guaranteed max clank as is
The ranged attack wardens use penetrates armour, it always does 4 hearts of damage so it's useless in that regard. It's useful for more care free/risky playstyles, but ethos issue is clank & hazard, honestly he probably need to trim his deck down 10+ cards to get the necessary cards more consistently.
@@mpunk9932 I think Etho might stick with it just because it's "more fun," but yeeeeeeeeeahh, I know a lot of the reason the phase was so rough was because of the level 3 changes, but I think that card was really holding him back, especially when you consider that without it he's more likely to move more carefully since getting hit is so bad.
@@AllSystemFailure I understand the conventional deckbuilding wisdom of using fewer cards for reduced variance, but having more cards delays stumbles. If you run a deck with only 15 cards, you're going to be eating nothing but stumbles by ~9 minutes into the run, which means an automatic +1 clank per minute from minute 10 onwards (not to mention the 4 stumble cards that will have already accrued by that point.) Meanwhile, a deck with 40 cards will become filled with only stumble cards at ~25 minutes into the run (by which point 10 stumbles will have already been shuffled into the deck.)
In essence, every card you add to your deck dilutes the growing pool of stumbles that accumulate over the course of the run, which gives you more time in the dungeon (on average.)
1:48:44 Another instance of Etho doing the "He's right behind me, isn't he?"
starting it off with the 54 minute run I love being an Etho fan
Fantastic phase. What a nail-biter! Really glad I saw the whole of your first run on stream, but you edited it superbly well. Smart move to build your deck at this stage. I think it'll really pay off later. Looking forward to Phase 6. Good luck!
I love how excited Etho sounds when he gets his own artifact. It made me smile.
I believe the subtext on The Slab is more of a reference on how inspirational you were on the current generation of Minecraft players, including the hermits themselves
2:05:32 - This has to be the best Warden kill till now. Giving Etho hope that he would escape with Speed Boost, getting him close to the exit corridor, only to boop him down to the middle floor of the Black Mines. Tango will be so satisfied knowing that Etho was killed by the Warden this way.
True
Late to this video but I can’t overstate how appreciative I am of etho’s content lately. Thank you man!
I love that everyone has been having so much fun in multiplayer recently. Decked Out has been such a highlight of the year, and the other new series(es) seem to have tons of exciting stuff on the horizon. Cheers!
etho so happy you’re enjoying decked out and all the different series on the channel right now, but would love to see your perspective of the team canada ctm maps from recently. they will always have a special place in our hearts!
that ladder shortcut on level 3 might be a one way with how its closing every time
at 1:06:30 he talks about generating a lot of Clank. And just after that activates a shrieker. But it doesnt generate a Clank AND you can hear a Piston moving! i Think Etho stumbled across a secret without noticing!
No he generated clank.
@@John-lh1qx he has 3 Clank Block at 1:06:25 and generates 1 Clank at 1:06:27. So now he is at 2 Clank Block.
The Shrieker i am talking about gets activated at 1:06:34 and he stays 2 Clank Block until 1:06:44 when he activates another Shrieker. So no. The Shrieker i am talkin about does not activate Clank.
I really like the change of goals. The gap between the top and the bottom of the leaderboard is pretty large already, and as it gets to the final rounds some of the runs might bet boring if you are only competing for tomes. I think the best part of decked out is the variety of decks that people have, but most of those decks are built out of circumstance. It would be cool to see what you could put together if you really wanted to specialize
I think that the only thing that reduces a bit my enjoyment is that gap.
And that some of the players that are behind are there in great part because of bad luck.
Like Gem not getting keys in certain runs (I'm not saying that Etho doesn't deserve his placement, I'm saying that Gem deserved more points in previous weeks).
There's also a 'hidden' benefit to Reckless Charge - since it means you're going to want to sprint for the next 8 seconds and not sneak, it kinda encourages you to make more progress in the dungeon than you would by moving cautiously! (Well, unless you backtrack to find a shrieker to set off, haha)
As much as I would love to just see you win, I think buying every card will be much more fun to watch and fun for you so I personally love this new approach
I love the way Etho games. It’s all about challenging himself and making things fun. Love watching his runs. Awesome video as always!!!
The wardens definitely have something against Etho now. What did you do Tango!?
I feel like Suit Up works so well for Cub because he doesn't play as carefully and often takes hits, while you have bigger issues with clank.
Love that you increase brightness by power of editing when in level 3. Can't get around the pitch black blindness, but it does help in general. Thank you.
Honestly, I am totally fine with your "new strategy" to collect all the cards. I think it will be super fun (plus I believe you'll win either way....!) These DO2 movies you've been putting out are super fun. Also for me this is totally the right amount of editing!
I feel clinically addicted to etho’s content right now. Tuesdays are a good day
I love that you can hear the smile on Etho's face the entire time
56:48 is such a smooth transition
Nimble looting is insanely good! You generate so much treasure because of it
2:05:36 That was insane!!
MASSIVE knockback!
Another 2 hours of Etho! Super glad that you’re having fun!
"i dont know what we're gonna do here" - *looks contemplatively at lava pool*
I love the new card buying strategy - hopefully the other Hermits decide to go for tomes to keep things competitive. I think some have started giving up on that, which is sad
Yeah, it’s very sad. Etho did 13 when Hermits were doing less than 5. Then Cub was doing well too so he bought tomes, tied w/ Etho, and went on to win Phase 5. Etho also doesn’t seem to have done too well due to all the changes and lvl 3 losses. Don’t know abt the results since I refuse to know anything abt it until I watch all the videos for phase 5.
Thanks for adjusting the exposure on lvl 3, truly made it great to watch.
If you did it previously; sorry, I didn't notice.
Etho giving us a full length horror movie on Halloween.
54:13 That gallop they do is just so menacing hahaha. It's terrifying and I love it.
Thanks for putting in the work to add the brightness Etho!
I think there is a sensor that specifically for the ladder making it either a one time use or you can only go down it and not back up
1:58:54 Etho, you forget about Rusty way too much. I am mentally screaming here
Literally cannot get enough of Etho. Thank you for continuing to produce excellent content.
The rusty lore is getting deep and I'm here for it
Dang etho those Wardens really had your number this phase😂
Checked to see if you had posted this phase quite yet while at work today and you had just posted it 15mins prior to me checking! Couldn't wait to get home to watch. Thanks for keeping up with putting these massive compilations together!
I'm so happy that he got the Slab
Not a lot of wins, but tons of excitement! I think level 3 is a lot more exciting now, especially with suit up as the wardens aren't just an instant death. However, I think a glass-looter deck might be more suited to Etho, as the amount of Clank generated is insane.
Thanks for brightening the footage when the wardens hit you with blindness, it makes it so much easier to watch! Also, I love these Decked Out videos you do!
still rooting for you to win, but i’m glad you’re playing with a strategy that’ll make you have more fun with it, you enjoying yourself is what makes the videos the most fun to watch!
Do whatever play style makes you happy Etho. We will watch
lol, bounding strides running out the moment etho reaches the shortcut is the new "hazard door shuts directly in his face"
I think the problem with the generation of clank is all those speed buff cards you have + suit up. Running around with speed buff makes you pass many more shriekers, but cards don't come faster even if you move quicker.
21:00 That speed-sneak jump you mentioned is sprint-crouch-jumping! It’s where you hold sprint and sneak, then let go of sneak for a moment mid jump! If done right you can be sneaked as you jump and land, but get a little extra boost mid-jump. If this isn’t helpful or already known then by all means ignore the comment, but a sprint-sneak-jump strategy to move around level 3 faster might be cool to see.
Etho I think we'd love to see you collect them all!!
I assure you I still enjoy Tango's Decked Out 2 and your game play of it. I still re-watch Decked Out 1 runs because they were so entertaining. Wish there were more of them...like that 7 hours of footage you promised that one time. thanks for posting your playthroughs.
I don't know how you still make these runs exciting, but you certainly do :) amazing episode
Suit up does seem to get you to max clank a lot faster.
But it also saves you from a lot of situations.
And another bonus is when you do take a hit, it will take MUCH less berries and time to get back to full HP from that hit.
