10 points for anyone who recognises the music playing around the Manus section
the first song is zelda oof when ganon appears
FFX To Zanarkand! Great video JK. Looking forward to seeing the rest of the challengers on the backlogs.
To zanarkand 😢
It sounded very much like FF music, but had to google 'To Zanarkland'. 5 points maybe?
My favourite piece of piano music ever, gets me in the feels every single time, especially when it plays during the ending cutscene with Tidus saying goodbye.
It always seems impossible until it is done :)
Great quote! I think I heard some guy on KZhead say that one time 🤔😂
he said the thing haha
Sooo.... Someone _actually_ one shot The Four Kings? ^^
(He’s talking about dying to pinwheel)
Hi Lemon!
Lemon specifically said to NOT kill priscilla? I'm astounded
I think primarily because of the potential glitch situation. Or maybe because waifu...who knows?
@@JKLeeds Must be due to waifu since you can aggro her then reload, enter the fog and maneuvre around her while she's invisible to get a kill.
@@JaneDoe-mp4dhPriscilla too wholesome to kill.
Poor Priscilla
Mad respect for manus. I dont even have the patience for manus in a normal run.
It nearly killed me 😂
@@JKLeedslooks like it did😂
@@yadigg4775 Multiple times!
You are the first Souls - challenge run person that popped into my homepage and got me interested into doing it and watching all these other great people doing it. Great job this was insane!
Ah that's really nice feedback! Glad youre liking the content 🙂
I really hope iron pineapple is participating. He did this five years ago.
I think I saw that one a while back
I love how dark souls challenge runs are always so inspirational and uplifting Just as our lord and savior lemon says "It always seems impossible until you do it "
Words to live by!
when it floats down, absolutely laughing my ass off XD 10:17
I lol'ed pretty hard tbf
oh i just got, it floats down HAHAHAHAAHA shitting myself
How you reacted upon finally one-shotting Manus was pretty much how I reacted upon finally defeating him at all. Action games are not my forte. I grew up on a diet of JRPGs. The fact that I'd finally got in enough perfect dodges and timely strikes to take down easily the toughest boss in Dark Souls felt like a gargantuan achievement for me. This is something else. Well done.
Yeah that was also me the first time I ever beat Kalameet! This was next level though. Glad you enjoyed the video 🙂
Mad respect and huge congrats. You achieved your goal, but most importantly you didn't give up. I'm pretty sure this video will be great inspiration for both players and content creators, and for people who have very hard goal to achieve and are/were very close to abandon it.
Haha I hope so! Thanks for the kind words 🙏
Great stuff, can't see how it could be improved much over this. Well done
Well I think the obvious improvement would be if I had one shotted the bosses in alphabetical order.. ....seriously thank you, that's high praise! 😊 Love your work!
I love the Banjo and Kazooie sounds going on for no reason at all.
Hope they're weren't too unBEARable 😁
Dude, great work and video, I was so surprised to see you only have 15k subs, you’re gonna make it big
Loved the banjo Kazooie sound effects. Snow world form the game for the Manus win was epic.
It’s my first time seeing one of your videos and I absolutely loved it!!! great challenge run and the manus fight really amazed me😆
Welcome 🙂 glad you liked the video!
Your videos are so relaxing man
I’ve been playing DS1 while watching this, and the skit of you grabbing your ps5 controller and loading onto your character basically perfectly matched up with me doing it. I feel cool as hell now
Guess you coulda agro'd Priscilla with weak attacks, returned to the bonfire then walked to her fog gate again to oneshot her while she is agro'd 🤔
24:47 bro’s playing with a disconnected controller, no wonder he can’t do it
😂😂😂
Thank you for making such great content
You're too kind 🙂 thank you for watching it!
I would say the four kings have different health bars because when you lock on you can see a health bar so while they share one at the bottom of the screen you did it still
In my own mind I'm still happy with it but yeah the specific rules of Lemon's run stated that it had to be the whole bottom health bar in one hit
@@JKLeeds how possible is it to let multiple kings spawn and hitting them with one big ass AoE?
@@equious8413 depends! With some like Fire Tempest, it's not very possible because the abyss does some weird shit to the fire pillars. With some other kind of AOE, it might be possible. But hard to survive that long plus you're down a ring slot
@@JKLeeds I think the AI of the kings is also kind of an issue with the AoE multiple Kings strategy. Typically even with multiple Kings they seem to follow a pattern where one will be close to you, and the others hang back and harass you with ranged attacks, this would leave an obnoxiously small window to pull off a multihit when they're shuffling around which king is doing what.
Yeah I had a few attempts and trying to get them all together is far from easy
Super entertaining. Instasub! Congrats on Manus.
damn love lemons stuff glad to see ya participating
Me too! He was one of my inspirations to become a Souls KZheadr myself
@@JKLeeds We love to hear it. You, press continue, lemon, baron and people like toto triceps and the smaller people in the community gave me the motivation to try challenge running. Sadly real life hit and i didnt have the time to finish one yet, but i have come pretty far on some, which i honestly didnt expect. Love the community and its always entertaining to see what players better than me can do. (bet i missed someone in my mentions but hey challengers community love y'all (: hehe)
What a lovely message! It's a great community for sure! Hit me up when you drop a vid, I'll give ya a watch for sure 🙂
Great job on the run and delivery of voiceover, very nice video
Thank you 😊
Great Video my Guy❤ And great puns with the bosses names near the end 😂😂😂😂
Thanks my dude! Sometimes I just go into the zone and I see nothing but puns. I call it PUNnel vision
@@JKLeeds God damn stop it already 😆😂😂😂 Great work Mate you got a new sub here.
The Manus story is one to tell your grandchildren... It was glorious
I'm sure glad I don't have to go through all of that as well... ... oh wait...
You'll be fine, just continue to press on 😄
*It was at this moment that he knew he forked up*
No matter where you end up in the competition, this was really great and impressively done!
Thanks! I'm fairly certain I won't place high but I'm proud of what I did here and 🙂
@@JKLeeds You should be. And I'm sure Lemon, the patience elemental himself, is proud too.
@@JKLeeds when are the results in, and where can I check them?
Probably not for another month or so, Lemon will release the video on his Backlogs channel (I'll probably be last place 😂)
@@JKLeeds give yourself some credit men, you did great!
That was excellent 🙏🏻 Way I see it, you ARE one of ‘those’ KZheadrs that we admire so much
Ahh you're too kind 🙂 I don't think I'm there just yet but hope to be someday!
Lmao that man screaming sound effect when npcs fall off cliffs gets me every time lol
I haven't even noticed that you used your same yoke twiche😂 such a great video. Love it❤
I absolutely love the puns 😂 Great Job on the challange and i'll be looking forward to your next Videos 😊
Thank you! I'll have more videos and more puns coming VERY soon. I particularly like challenge runs that are PUNishing
16:34 love tye Banjo Kazzoie sounds and tracks lol 😆
Me too 😄😁
This is the same as somethodox's video 10 years ago. Great series i still remember watching it when it first came out. Your video was great, also the first video of yours i saw. Definitely subscribed
Yeah I actually remember watching that video all that time ago, it was one of the first Souls challenge runs I ever watched, so getting to try recreate was a cool experience! Glad you enjoyed the vid and welcome 😄
This was incredible, dude! Great job!
Thanks regular viewer man 😃
@@JKLeeds wouldn’t miss a great video from you, man 🫡👊🏼
Glad to have you my dude!
Man amazing video! Really good
Thank you 😊
that's quite the throwback, this is vageta311's one-shot challenge. just checked the video, that was 10 years ago xD
Very good challenge !
Hey, nice job! Your persistence and patience with this was pretty incredible. -one of Lemon's moderators
Thank you so much 💗
You should have seen the smile on my face when you finally killed manus - I began to tear up
The Banjo-Kazooie soundtrack in the background makes this video just that much better
"Do you have police where you live?" is perhaps one of my favorite guest Lemon gags.
Funnily enough, it's one of mine too 😄
hey that's Vageta311's exact one-shot challenge ruleset what a legend he was
Just found your content. I enjoyed this! I loved the sound effects too. I kept thinking “Is that Banjo Kazooie?” 😂
Glad you liked it and welcome! 🙂 I can confirm it is indeed Banjo Kazooie! A cherished childhood game of mine 😄
@@JKLeeds Same here. One of my first favorite games. I obsessed over it! Keep up the good work
The manus fight is bonkers. Take a sub, look forward to more from you.
Thank you! Glad you liked it, I've just about recovered from it a month later
G fucking g man on that manus fight I was over the moon you finally did it I know the heartache of not being able to kill a boss and going at it over and over and over so we’ll done bro you should be proud of yourself ❤
I really enjoyed this video love your channel :)))))
Thanks for being a valued viewer 🤗🤗
When you tickled the Taurus Demon off the edge I couldn't help but chuckle.
The banjo background music is incredibly nostalgic, love it
Thank you! It brings a big smile to my face ☺️
I like the idea of assigning point values to actions (basic boss kills +1, big boy bosses +2, levels -1, upgrading a weapon -1 etc) and competing for points in a run 🤔
Yeah it's a cool concept 😎
I loved the goofy sounds effects
Sound effects are fantastic
Thanks 😄
Ya did good JK Leeds, hope you get a lot of points
Thank you 😊
First attempt the next morning after failing 30 times the previous day is classic dark souls 😂
u rly an underrated ass souls tuber, always coming back to ur content🔥🔥
Thanks brah! Glad you like it 🙂
@@JKLeeds keep it up goat🐐
That was epic, sir.
Great run and props to your patience with manus! You didnt get the point for one shotting dusk after the manus fight. She only spawns once there and if you die after the fight she despawns.
After many many hours of my life spent playing dark souls I never ONCE considered using the slope in qulaags boss room to plunge attack. That's kinda freaking awesome and more than a little impressive!
Me neither before this run! 😂
great job king
Thanks brother!
Yay new upload!
You know it!
I'm really enjoying this contest.. so many faces i didn't know!
It was really fun to do actually....well apart from Manus 😂
Hey guy :) and hey JK my buddy ol pal. I’ve been waiting for this video alll day
Enjoy my dude!
8:59 you monster! 😂
First time I’ve seen that way to dodge the barrel and kill the knight damn
The Manus bit made me cry Excellent work!
Me too, but probably for different reasons 😂
Great vid I love ur contentn
Thanks friend!
Although i love DS challenge runs and have seen a lot of them i think i never saw your channel. Which is really a shame because, besides the obvious skill, your narration and humor is really nice...kinda like Lemon. So congrats and i'll wait for Lemons video :)
Thank you! Glad to hear you enjoyed the video and welcome to the channel 🙂
Using Ganondorf's theme for Manus fits pretty well.
really underrated man!
Thank you 😊
a hot tip for the pyro glove and power within. upgrading the glove doesnt increase the buff but it does increase the damage you take from it, so if you are able to get a second glove, its worth it to keep one level 1 to use power within and another max to use other pyromancies!
Hey so not sure where you heard this but I can 100% confirm that's not the case. The damage taken is the same regardless of Pyro glove upgrade, at least in the most recent versions of DS1, not sure if maybe it was different in the day one version or something but right now the damage you take from power within doesn't change unless you equip lingering dragoncrest ring.
Congratulations on Manus!!!!!
11:30 what a great song 🎶
I love these sound effects
A tribute to a childhood favourite of mine 😄
That was fun.
Also the large club is just fuckin hilarious to use
Great video my friend! :)
This comment's gonna cost you extra 😉 Thanks brother!
That manus kill is why we take breaks when we’re struggling. Ggs
You are the best Dark Souls youtuber, I MEAN IT.
Well done, especially with defeating Manus
Thanks friend! I nearly went hollow but it was...worth it? Maybe? 😂😂
It was an awesome video. My only gripe would be the overuse of the Banjo Kazooie sound effects. Besides that this was really cool.
A oneshot run is honestly one of the best experiences to do IMO. I once did it on NG+ after trying to platinum remaster. Instead of killing the bosses naturally, I decided to see if a one shot run is doable. and Man, discovering the Dark Bead trick just cut probably 5 hours of NG+ down to just 2. The only thing that made it somewhat non-legit was that I had to do the Soul dupe to get my Int to 99 since my NG character was a Quality build, and I ended NG with only 9 INT.
Yeah I was surprised by how much I enjoyed it....up until Manus 😂😂😂
Just got me wanting to play DS1 again.
So that's what Lemon's cooking
could have dragon torso helped you in your run vs Manus? or does it boost only normal attack damage?
You are the only person I have seen get the boosted hit on the last hit he takes.
Aint there a firespell out there you can keep pressing and you can just flamethrower the four kings out of existence, since you only pressed the button once?
Ahhh a Jk Leeds video right after I get out df work, i must have been a good boy today 😌
Indeed, I'm actually the Souls Content Creator equivalent of Santa Claus, I plan my entire upload schedule around how well you do or don't behave 😉
Seriously though man loving the content, the quality is top tier, almost like you’ve been doing this for years, always looking forward to a new upload!
Wow very nice of you to say! I've been really trying to improve my editing skills with each vid 🙂
4:28 "Honestly it often feels less than that" this is so true lol.
Some of the other guys in the challenge said it took like 8 hours to farm them 😱 plus the Torso stone doesn't increase pyro damage
Just wanted to come over from The Backlogs crowd to say congratulations on completing the run! You earned yourself a follow from me, with hopes it lessens the 6033 PTSD (Saw Baron's run first so I was interested to see how you handled him, so far it's 2 for 2 on him causing emotional damage!). So how many points out of 108 did you end up with? Or do we have to wait for Lemon's Leaderboard to find out the winner?
Thanks my guy! You'll have to wait til Lemon's vid but I'm pretty sure that I didn't rank high haha 😅
My man here loves banjo kazooie 🤣
Aye mate good job well earned.
Thank you!
"I could live without having one shot manus, Right?" Said no one who's ever played dark souls. That's just not the type of people the genre attracts
Silver septent ring is your friend. Doubles souls gain. You can put it on when the boss is in its deathanimation to get double souls ;)
Excellent video! Can’t believe you bested Manus. Also I hope you’re enjoying Tears of the Kingdom if you’ve had any free time
Oh my friend, we're 250 hours deep into Tears of the Kingdom 😆 absolutely love it! Glad you liked the video 🙂
They say that determination is the determining factor in success.
In this case, it's probably more stupidity of not knowing when to give up 😂
Good, now do it for all bosses in DS2! 😂
Have you seen Infernoplus' one shot series, it's has pretty creative ways to one shot bosses in this series
I have not, I'll give it a watch!
Those vids are definetly worth a watch, especially his elden ring video. It's both really informative and really entertaining with so many weapons I've used from the game
Best puns in the scene baby!
The best puns you've ever scene 😉
Has @thebacklogs released the challenge video yet?
3:30 Not considering Asylum Demon (who isn't included in the rules of this challenge) you only have to beat one boss to get the pyromancy flame: Capra Demon.
Yeah that's true actually, forgot you can get to Capra without beating Taurus Demon.
@@JKLeeds Not that it really matters in the end, you beat the challenge anyway.
