Something very similar happened to me once. The entire rando I couldn’t find claw for the life of me, and I got everything I needed to beat the game without it. I even went as far as to get every single check I could without claw, and it didn’t turn up. So I resigned myself to beating the game without it and entered the black egg temple, where I realized I hadn’t checked World Sense. It was shopkeeper’s key. I figured I’d see what was in the shop, so I went back to Dirtmouth. And guess what Sly was selling. Take a wild frickin guess.
In a rando i was doing, i got all the requirementa for true ending, and didnt have a single dash and only had left claw and both halves of crystal, and wings, i gave raidance a try, didnt go well

huuuge props to whoever coded the "black egg temple lore tablet + worldsense" check to function like that if one of them turns into a geo rock. I fully would have expected a geo rock and a Crumb on the ground when loading the scene - but for the Crumb to come out of the geo rock when broken? _Fantastic_
21:58 My lore implications for this one is that this Cloak belongs to Quirrel, and he gave it to Uumuu when decided to leave Hallownest, but Uumuu didn't had any hanger for it in the Archives, so it just left it hanging on Tablet
There's another skip into dark Deepnest from the Queen's Gardens toll bench: push a spiny husk down to the lower platform, then knock it into the thorns on the left. When it dies the corpse will bounce upwards and you can quickly pogo it to get enough height and get up onto the higher platform. The pogo + damage boost was excellent improvisation - Skurry has a great eye for skips!
30:4030:50 Imagine being a King of the biggest Kingdom around this lands, only for your soul to be shattered and thrown away in the goddam Sewers after you die
At some point this is gonna turn into spore. You just start as a single cell organism and have to evolve into the knight. Not that i am complaining, loving the videos
Making "Watcher Knights chandelier cut" an item/check is wild lol, expecting the mod makers to make it so every room on the map is an item you need to pick up first at some point lol
They should make a rando where bosses and nail damage are kinda normal but basic enemies randomly have tons of health and/or triple attack damage and/or fast movement and/or high attack speed and/or do not give soul. :)
Did you know you can smooch broken vessel? When it dies it raises its head for a moment. You can stand next to it and time looking down just right for a smooch.
This seed was absolutely cursed haha Combat Rando is a bit more customizable by now though, that seems like an outdated version, but the main challenge on extreme mode is mostly the early game and the fact that you never get late-game geared (nail damage is capped at 13 by default on Extreme)
I know that this rando's skin is slugpup but I kept thinking it was a maggot which would also be on brand (does no damage, sad and distressed, bullied by the world)
Funny thing: for me, the flame protector guy is saying "Salope!" which is the French translation of "B*tch" Every French player I know ear that too, of course XD
Totally haha I was going to mention it! The first time I played I was very surprised to hear, not only a real word in hollow knight, but this word haha
Technically elevators are vertical movement... Also around the 10 minute mark I knew this was gonna be a funny run and I wish I would've been in chat to suggest a gamba to see if we got white fragment before claw.
You know, going into this video I was expecting the main source of suffering to be long bossfights and scarce healing, not whatever sadistic lunacy that randomizer seed was. Shows what I know!
Skurry, I am a person that talks Spanish so...pls no hate to my writing ← i think i wrote that wrong. So, recently for seeing your videos i decided to do my own randomizer... That was a awful decision so, how do i tell ya'll? My first ability was Isma's tear, I found the seer (after 3 hours) because it was after a reversed white palace room and for you to know she had MONARCH WINGS. It cost 685 essence (i didnt have enough) so i warp and i forgot where the Seer was, i get until 1,280 essence until i tried again to do the reversed White palace room and we got it 🎉🎉🎉🎉 (before, in the part where i was searching for essence i got Dash, Salubra has Swim and i got it ) so after 6 hours it was pretty lame. No spell , poor movement, poor nail damage (i forgot to tell that it is a room randomizer also) . The most important thing that happend after was that, because i have double jump, now i can enter hornet 1 and for some reason that vessel that gives you Dash it was the corpse of Herra, so poor Hornet, she was defending the dead corpse of her mother. (Ok, do you know that room in Crossroads that with a vengefly skip you can get a grub, so that geo rock down the vengefly was Lurien, XD.) After HOURS of searching, i found finally a spell, Howlling Wraiths, after that...Ou MEN how do i tell you... This is an expression in Spanish: "Todo fue viento en popa" that means that everything was going good after that. Like an hour after finally i go to Sheo, he sees me, i see him, we kis...*cough*...Sheo had for a total of 10 hours and 38 minutes The MANTIS CLAW. After that Gourgeos Husk is Monomon. Irronically Sheo's home was the black egg temple so i enter and i got out because i didnt have any damege in my nail and only have one spell I acquaired ← i wrote that wrong: -Abbys Shriek - Desolate dive -Vengefull Spirit -And Nail.......... I had like 5 PALE ORES FOR 21 HOURS AND DIDNT FIND A SINGLE TIME THE NAILSMITH. So i go fight the Hollow knight and i beat him, finishin the game with 19 hours and 6 minutes and 22 seconds. PD: that root of essence in ancestral mound had Lumafly lantern i found it before mantis claw or Vengeful spirit EVEN BEFORE HOWLING WRAITHS and i hate that Boulder so MUCH for not letting me hqve a usefull item until i have mantis claw. *** THERE WAS NO DUPES**
I know I'm really late, but as a native speaker, your English is actually really good! Aside from a few very minor mistakes, even for general standards that was well-written. Also, that was a crazy randomizer seed you had there. I probably wouldn't have been able to bring myself to finish it XD
I was just binging your randomizer runs, and this popped up. Lucky~ Also, the best randomizer runs, game regardless, are those weird ones where the one 'use this everywhere' item just kinda goes on vacation until the end. Double funny when it's a metroidvania, because that means it's just some sort of simple, SIMPLE bit of movement tech. See above video. XP
I hope we can get more Rain World content soon (this slugpup skin was awesome!). I really hope (if you ever read this) that you'll try the Region Randomizer mod for Rain World with some custom region mods (the Randomizer's Steam workshop page has a collection of recommended mods that you should use with it). It's be really cool to see you explore some more custom regions while making your way through the randomizer! (Or there's also a new Check Randomizer mod for Rain World that looks really cool (although I haven't tried it yet). You should experiment with that too.)
Someone should make a rando where you have to get individual pixels or groups of pixels so you start with like 200 random pixels and you gotta find the rest to be able to see properly
what an awesome rando, I've played many hk randomizers, none I remember were quite as cursed as this one, but I love (skurry) being forced to find learn new skips and crazy scenarios
12:54 I'm attempting to do a P5 boss order run inspired by the one you did a while back, and I ended up getting to Mossy via that shade skip! (I'm still learning how to do fireball skips, and I found out about the shade skip by trying to find a tutorial for the fireball skip you used in that run. 🤣)
This is now my top 3 hollow knight videos. I am so sorry you had to go through and I am so sorry to say this but, I wish you get more of these kinds of randos. They are really entertaining to watch
3:28 WHAT DID HORNET JUST DO??? 8:29 Why do things like clipping into walls today 20:02 This is the Cursed Enemy Rando, apparently. 20:45 More upside down mantis. 20:56 UPSIDE DOWN GUY SKIP
a random palpitating sound plays throughout the latter half of the video and it's actually making me go insane. It's the skurry secret waves that make you subscribe
That rando was great to watch, I know it was legit, but if I didn't know better I'd say an extremely intelligent A.I. created it like a perfect plando. That was wicked, tough as he'll, and I'd love to play a seed like that lol. Great video dude!
Claw hid behind egg, the edge of the world, and a ghost in the center of the kingdom. In one final desperate attempt to hide void heart it disguised itself as a geo rock, and didn't award itself to you if you don't notice it. Void heart hid behind claw, the sewers and everything claw hid behind
I once had a rando where mothwing cloak was that exact same lore tablet. I tore the entire map apart for checks before getting it three hours in, and then immediately quite the game.
bro is really happy you bought his really expensive egg, he bought it off someone for a lot higher but he was trying to get rid of it ever since cause it smelled
You know the rando was bad when skurry nearly quits midway lmaoo

35:36 I agree with them, putting claw at black egg is absolutely evil 😭😭😭😭😭
i thought it was on the abyss after getting the "void heart"

That mantis claw placement is a top tier troll.

It’s actually so refreshing when the Claw is last cuz I get to see so many cool skips and unorthodox usages of items, great seed for the video imo
this has to be my favorite rando seed yet, no human could create a rando seed as evil as this
Sam Reich pops in from the black egg temple "and i was here the whole time"
Lmaoooooo
That is... Wow. Did not expect that reference here at all!
I wonder how much crossover there is between audiences.
Making "Watcher Knights chandelier cut" an item/check is wild lol, expecting the mod makers to make it so every room on the map is an item you need to pick up first at some point lol
I love how the part of this that broke Skurry wasn’t even the insane combat randomizer part, the normal rando just screwed them over so hard.
Really like the rainworld style editing at 16:02, very fitting
They should make a rando where bosses and nail damage are kinda normal but basic enemies randomly have tons of health and/or triple attack damage and/or fast movement and/or high attack speed and/or do not give soul. :)
Enemy stats rando sounds like entertainment.
Some checks will lower enemy stats
There are curses that increase the stats

Hollow Knight with Skurry is always just so cozy I love it
Is it just me or is skurry’s content one of the best to sleep to? It’s a vibe and chill love it so much
Skurry’s content in general is just so nice and chill
took me a minute to recognize that UNSIGHTED ost at the start, skurry knows ALL the cool games
They desperately need silksong
I know that this rando's skin is slugpup but I kept thinking it was a maggot which would also be on brand (does no damage, sad and distressed, bullied by the world)

Another random funny thing: dung defender screams doma-doma-doma, in Russian it means "houses/buildings".
We gonna get the silksong demo rando before silk song at this point
The gimmick of this rando immediately took a backseat to the awful seed Skurry rolled lmaooooo
Technically elevators are vertical movement...
Also around the 10 minute mark I knew this was gonna be a funny run and I wish I would've been in chat to suggest a gamba to see if we got white fragment before claw.
That is the most insane logic sequence I have ever seen in a randomizer
haven't watched any strims in a little while so welcome back to my screen! very glad to have you (even at 4am to help with eepy)
This is ZFG levels of cursed rando. Inventing skips was amazingly resourceful.
You know, going into this video I was expecting the main source of suffering to be long bossfights and scarce healing, not whatever sadistic lunacy that randomizer seed was. Shows what I know!
It's always in the last place you look. Or sometimes, the last place entirely.
Another rando setting, another piece of skurrys sanity gone
this was genuinely your most entertaining rando video this seed was absurd
I like how the greatest challenge of the rando wasn't the combat nerfs, but the way the items were randomized
32:09 Skurry shouting "you dumbass!" has helped heal my soul
