The final stage of the Aku Realms, featuring Jagando and three (technically four) Fallen Bears. The first three Fallen Bears are the main threat, and you want to kill the first two as quickly as possible to prevent them stacking up. I used Housewife, Manic King Dragon, Bullet, and Doron as my primary chippers. Money is a little scarce at the start, so you don't want to use stuff like Bahamut unless you're confident he'll kill the Fallen Bear. My Bahamut is level 30, so I had to be careful to do some chip damage on the Fallen Bear after breaking its barrier first before sending Bahamut in. You need to do 100,000 damage to the Fallen Bear to deal enough damage to count for two knockbacks, and my Bahamut does 85,000 on his first hit, so 15k more was all I needed to be done to the Fallen Bear before sending Bahamut in. Send in Doron when the Aku Peng is close to Jagando so you get full value out of that surge. Housewife and Manic King Dragon deal pretty nicely with the Aku Peng, and don't be afraid to send in Bullet to grab that double cash from him. For the two Aku Pengs that come with the third Fallen Bear, I like using Bahamut to just quickly deal with them. Gotta make sure that timing is good though lmao. Sometimes, you might get screwed on Aku Researcher procs (early procs can make a huge difference over late ones/no procs), but that's just luck. Timing Rock correctly is pretty important in this stage, especially during the clean up phase of the stage. You want Rock to be at the frontlines around when Jagando finishes his attack so he can activate the next one. Gato Amigo surge immune is pretty helpful here as insurance after an enemy surges, but most of the time, good Rock timings should make that not too difficult of a problem. After killing the Fallen Bears, the rest of the stage should be pretty self-explanatory.

![(12:20.85) Minecraft 1.8 Any% Random Seed Speedrun [PB]
Seed: 2705762099429347854
Did my first glitched runs today, and this was the best time I got! Theres definitely still much room for improvement. If there was gold in the blacksmith, I could have saved time by not having to go into the cave looking for a zombie to trade rotten flesh to unlock the clerics first trade. I also got a little confused by the triangulation since the eye looked glitchy :p The lack of a fletcher/brown coat villager also wasted a little bit of time, and I ended up just killing chickens and getting flint for arrows instead. Definitely have gotten a lot better at the tick dupe, and I will go for sub 10 in the future :) (12:20.85) Minecraft 1.8 Any% Random Seed Speedrun [PB]](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/q-2FwCLIjiI/mqdefault.jpg)

![Surviving Floor 30 for 20 Minutes
This run was inspired by Pan Dangos 20+ minute Floor 30 run, which can be viewed here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eQOm10gNttY. My strat here was to not spawn Musashi for a few minutes, then only keep one Musashi out at a time. I focused on fighting Hermit not too close to the base, so I could have some breathing room and fail safes, such as having more room to plant Zamboneys. The only unit thats slightly boosted here is Manic Eraser, but his gameplay difference from a level 40 Manic Eraser is negligible. I can probably get a longer run, but Im pretty happy with this. Its just a pretty clean run. I decided not to speed up the footage, since the point of this was to test how long I could survive before beating Hermit, and not beating the stage with a specific lineup under no time goals. I wanted to show the run in its vanilla speed, and added some music so you can enjoy the way.

![(3:17:24) Minecraft 1.7 Superflat Hardcore Void World (check description for information)
Preset: 2;0;2;village(distance=0 size=1),biome_1(distance=0),stronghold,mineshaft(chance=0.05),dungeon
This was a challenge originally started by Japanese players for fun, so I decided to have a crack at it. My internet wasnt doing well last night, so thats why the video is going to be fairly laggy. Recreating the worlds doesnt make this set seed; the only thing that carries over when recreating the world is the preset, so Im just making it easier to reset for myself. The real time is off at the end because I accidentally paused my timer in the middle of the run for a couple of minutes, making the RTA off.
The preset makes the world have no ground, and the only things that can generate are structures. The main source of wood can be found in the mineshafts floating throughout the world. The main ways to get eyes of ender to go to the end and defeat the ender dragon are by trading. Hunting for mobs isnt as reliable, and Im sure you could do something with tower, but I chose to play in hardcore mode for this challenge. The strategy is to basically loot temples, villages, and mineshaft chests in order to get materials to help you survive as well as trade with villagers for emeralds and supplies. I managed to find a 7 emerald eye trade priest in this run, and I milked him as much as possible to get the eyes needed.
I spawned thousands of blocks out from the origin, so my goal was to keep moving closer to the origin since strongholds only spawn from approximately 600 to 1100 blocks from the origin in pre 1.9. Unfortunately, both of the eyes of ender I threw were lost to the void, and that made me one eye short when I reached the actual stronghold. However, I was able to find a pearl in a chest, and use the obsidian I had been stockpiling to build a nether portal in the portal room, allowing me to go to the nether and get the blaze rods I needed in order to enter the end. Thankfully, I had a good end island spawn, and I was able to finish a relatively safe end fight.
Overall, this challenge was pretty fun and a pretty good casual speedrun. If I could compare it to something, skyblock definitely comes to mind. I chose 1.7 for this speedrun over 1.8 mainly because wool is easier to acquire in 1.7, and youre going to be coming across many villages, so one of them is bound to have a priest that has a good eye trade. I could also use the wool to grab more emeralds from shepherds, so that ended up being pretty useful. I probably wont do this challenge again, but if I need to just chill for a couple of hours, its certainly a consideration. Im happy with the time I got, and this is the current world record for this preset. Once again, I apologize for the bad video quality.
