Hollow Knight speedrunner here- really cool to see how you took the time and effort to learn strategies and inform yourself about the games you run! It becomes particularly noticable when watching you do a run of a game i’m familiar with. Also 112% APB speedrun when 👀say the word and i will teach you lol
As an og hollow knight player having played for like 3-4 years, you did suprisingly well on this like really good job. Hollow knight is a metroidvania and really hard to speedrun because of how large it is so just awesome job all around (plus you are goated)
They usually are pretty hard,l tbh. He just took a beginner route. The current any% nmg route uses shade skips and pretty precise and stupidly hard to learn platforming glitches. The 112% nmg route is nothing but pain, and the any% with glitches is just visual aids istg
Yea even the route that ignores skips like shade skip and fireball skips as to teach beginners is really hard. Maybe it’s not as hard on the version he is playing on, but I did my runs on a Nintendo switch originally, and CurrentPatch bosses are generally harder and so is explosion-pogo and some other stuff
Hey! Awesome to see someone running my favorite game! You mentioned not knowing how the Uumuu AI works, so I thought I'd give you a short summary: For the first cycle (when Uumuu initially spawns), it's going to give you 3 attacks. After the third attack, it'll check how much distance it's traveled, and if it's more than a certain amount (which I believe is RNG), it'll move slowly and Quirrel will slash it to expose its core. If it's traveled less than the required distance, it'll queue up another attack (we just call them "extras"). After an extra, Quirrel is guaranteed to slash Uumuu to expose its core. Note that Quirrel slashing Uumuu doesn't actually damage it. Any subsequent cycles work the same way, except that Uumuu will make the check for an extra attack after 2 attacks instead of 3. Fun fact: with optimal any% equipment, a 2 cycle is the minimum number of cycles required for a kill. It's super cool to see top-level runners fight Uumuu. They have setups and planned reactions for every single attack pattern, so I would highly recommend checking them out if you haven't already!
It has been confirmed that silksong is coming out sometime around or before June 2023, so that's a good sign Edit: OK I FUCKING GET IT I WAS WRONG ABOUT THE SILKSONG RELEASE DATE
I always watch these videos wondering how close to the top speedruns you put the effort to get, and as a HK enjoyer, that's actually pretty good for a beginner, congrats man
What a pleasant surprise! Hollow Knight speedrunner and longtime fan here, really happy to see you enjoying the speedrun! Love the explanations of the run and entertaining commentary! If you ever are looking for more HK speedrun content, Steel Soul runs (my personal favorite) are really high stakes and fun, and Path of Pain is a really challenging, more platforming oriented category!
I think this is the first time you've covered a game that I already knew the speedruns for. Kind of crazy how much work and tim goes into one of these.
Hollow Knight Speedrunner here: quick tip, switch to Chinese in the game menu, it makes mashing a lot faster. There’s of course a lot of other stuff you should do, like double dash mantis pogo, blue lake wcs, pogo cycle wk, optimal cdash cycle, Uumuu extra attack recovery and optimal Uumuu damage cycles, QGA and QG route, proper stalking devout strats, faster THK, etc., but that’s the main starter tip :) Second most important suggestion is to learn QGA and QG route, then practice the bosses (especially WK and Uumuu).
@@cyberneticsquid A bit unrelated but a while ago the actual bible was recommended to me on steam because "it's similar to one of the games you've played: Hollow Knight"
I just wanted to thank you even though I know no one will see this comment thank you easyspeezy you show me my new favorite game I have played for about 220-230 hours and am currently working on my second 112% playthourgh on controller this time
It's a bit longer, but it would be so awesome to see you do a 112% run. Great video, easy! Also, for anyone wondering, HK is such an awesome game, and you should definitely play it.
As a hollow knight player I can say that he made the watcher knights look way easier than they are in game Fun fact: The false knight is a maggot who stole one of the five great knight’s armor
IM SO GLAD YOU FINALLY PLAYED THIS edit: i believe the one fireball baldur at greenpath is because when you go offscreen the vengeful spirit hitbox gets stuck in the baldur hitbox edit 2: in the watcher knights fight, you can fireball them as they roll to the other side of the arena, getting triple hits
actually, the vengeful spirit hitbox gets stuck at the edge of the screen, which is directly on top of the baldur's hitbox, causing the baldur to get hit multiple times. if youre too close or too far away, the spot where it gets stuck wont be on top of the baldur.
this could not have come at a better time for me because I've just really gotten into hollow knight, almost finished it and I've been watching a lot of speedruns. I know it wasn't on purpose but thanks, eazy
I once spent an entire month learning the route and practicing this speedrun, and the amount of time and effort that goes into being able to do this run is insane. Congrats on the good time, it’s better then the ones I got! Also, if you want to speedrun something even harder then Hollow Knight, speedrun Celeste.
Eazy, it is genuinely inspiring to watch your videos. I have only ever completed one speedrun in my life (pokemon emerald, it took me 6:39 minutes), but watching you go from speedrunning flash games to legitimately putting fantastic runs for competitive games up on leaderboards with nothing but your grit, deterministic attitude and relentless optimism makes me want to sink some hours into my favorite games and get a run or two approved on the leaderboards. Keep it up dude, thanks for the great (and consistent!) content.
i love this speedrun. the hollow knight speedruning community is very fun to follow and it’s cool to see you do it. i also regret to inform you that the watcher knights can be cheesed with pogo. idk if it’s at all faster though lol
Big time hollow knight fan here, seeing you do such skillful and difficult speedruns every once a while makes me respect you a lot. You're amazing and keep up the good work!
ive consumed so much hollow knight speedrun content that i noticed all the little optimizations that speezy didnt go for lmaoo im still very glad that he speedran it, very awesome game both to play and run! props to team cherry and the speedrunning community!
I do wanna say that the version that Eazy is using actually a previous patch. Patch 1221. It allows a few glitches and is the most optimal for speedrunning. The current patch has a separate category on the leaderboard.
This is awesome that Speezy did a Hollow Knight Speedrun. Oh also a really good tip! Wayward Compass is one of the best charms in the game extremely op
Well I didn’t expect eazy to do this run, mainly because of a few really really difficult strata like QGA so I want really surprised when eazy skipped out on doing them.
I'm really impressed by the tricks you learned for this game since I struggled so much to do even the easiest ones and never got to speedrun the whole game before! Mad respect!
I'm so frickin' happy- This is one of my favorite games and I am absolutely taking this as a sign to play Hollow Knight on my tv tonight. Also, based on the video time (barely a minute in), you did *really* good with the time! E - 19:20 - "Where we can now buy the Lumafly Lantern, which is incredibly important for a later part of the game." - Me out here thinking Eazy was gonna do Dark Deepnest
I swear to GOD hollow knight is my all-time favorite game and i just cannot believe youre finnaly speedrunning it! This is one of my favorite speedrun channels and ive always wanted to see him do this game
Whe here is still here to support me preparing to do the most unoptimised console new patch speedrun with no experience in running after seeing this except being greedy for damage in the pantheons
A few months ago: Discovers this channel A few days ago: Me, as a hollow knight fan, wonders if you will post any hollow knight speedrun video. Yesterday: *posts a hollow knight speedrun video.
Great job, man. The strats for this game are pretty crazy, and there are some incredibly difficult maneuvers that can shave time off quickly. Best of luck, my dude. :D
@@orcaisfreaky sorry for the late reply, but to answer your question, I had this pfp for some time and had no motivation to change it so as to make everything else consistent to my actual character. besides, it leads to sometimes funny reactions lmao.
4:25 That Elder Baldur dies to a single Vengeful Spirit because in early versions, VG was becoming suspended for a moment after leaving the screen - this meant that it was able to deal several "ticks" of damage during that time. And the set-up with approaching and then retreating from the Elder Baldur loaded it in but then placed it just beyond the visibility border to take advantage of that.
I’ve wanted him to give this a go for a long time, very respectable performance, that e pogo was probably the cleanest thing in the run but for someone who starts a game maybe beat it on there own time learn the run and just give it there best go this was a solid run
This video really make me appreciate how much effort you put into your videos. Hollow Knight speed runs aren’t an easy thing and despite a pretty unlucky Uumuu fight and no QGA, you completed a run which is super impressive! Also I’m now wondering if you do live commentary or not? I can’t tell because I can’t imagine being able to do all the things you do while talking over the top. Either way gg on the victory and I hope you have a great day!
The vengeful spirit skip to Hornet is nice to know. Ever since my first play through I used the Squit just below to pogo up to here ledge because I didn’t know you were supposed to go down and around.
Eazy speedrunning Hollow Knight is a dream come true :) A true ending speedrun or a current patch one would be interesting to see! (Or even better, low% true ending)
When I first started watching these I thought they were like voice overs the original gameplay. But then when you realize he's talking while actually doing it,, it's really quite impressive
something i think you forgot to mention is when fighting the hollow knight and he stabs himself ALL your attacks becomes 1 damage each so if you need to heal focus on that and if you dont go to him and DONT use spells just use your nail to fuel up your soul (also i wanted to say its fun to see that i started playing hollow knight again not so long ago and i was so happy when i saw that you made a speedrun of it)
Full disclosure too, since I don't think I saw it mentioned in the video, the speedrun usually uses an earlier patch, as some of the tricks in the speedrun have been patched out. Just in case you tried to do something you saw in the video and it wasn't working. Most notably, off the top of my head, I believe "inventory drop" and "explosion pogo" were patched out for the current version
I’m in awe, I don’t even have words to describe what I’m feeling because I have so much difficulty in this game it’s actually ridiculous, I feel like the dumbest person ever after seeing this much ability in one video!! Congrats dude 🥹
You can actually skip getting the mothwing cloak at the beginning completely if you use the mask shard near the ancestral mound to do a floating glitch, getting you into the fungal wastes and getting the mantis claw early
I used to speedrun this (not trying for leaderboard, just for some PBs) and would do newest version, 0 glitches. My fastest time was right on the 2 hour mark despite dying 2 times to soul master, and never using the exit reload strat. seeing this game beaten so quickly is just satisfying
I'm so happy to see you do a speedrun of Hollow Knight. I've been watching your videos for a while now and this is one of my favorite games! Love your videos and love the game, Keep up the great work!
I liked watching this and seeing the different strategies you took. I took a much different and more safer route in my speedrun for the sub 5 hour achievement and got 1:48.18
I regret to inform you this is exactly as hard as I’d expect it to be

Hollowknight is one of my favriote games glad to see you speedrun it
This game has always reminded me of another game I've wanted to see you Speedrun, Skul: The Hero Slayer. Idk why, it just has.
great run Speezy!
As a hollow knight speedrunner, this is a video i have been looking forward to for a long time.
I'm so happy to see you do a speedrun of Hollow Knight. I've been watching your videos for a while now and this is one of my favorite games! Love your videos and love the game, Keep up the great work!
Finally beat Hollow Knight yesterday for the first time so this video popping up today is perfect timing
I have just three things to teach: simplicity, patience, compassion. These three are your greatest treasures.
i'd actually want to see you 112% hollow knight :)
Hollow knight is just a small indie game with a even smaller community and its really cool to see eazy speedruning it
The community is small? I thought it was decently sized
@@testerwulf3357 isa joke
I liked watching this and seeing the different strategies you took. I took a much different and more safer route in my speedrun for the sub 5 hour achievement and got 1:48.18
12:04 looks like the knight is fast asleep
Oh my, you have such incredible stamina for talking!
