didn't puncay stop? is he back?

I don't recall him ever "retiring." I'm sure he's had a few breaks from the game, though. I legit think Shift is the only person who can actually handle speedrunning every day, years-straight, without feeling the need to take a break.

I've never seen any streaming so its all just new to me and I kinda want to sub for the guy you posted originally just because I was getting annoyed at the haters in the comments and I want to support him for dealing with that crap lol. I'm still in the middle of watching. I can't imagine being able to hold a dialogue and read while doing all of that...that takes a lot of skill and dedication to a craft.

In a way, I think the runners need the chat. Speedrunning can get really boring naturally as you are doing the same thing over and over, if you get stuck in the beginning. Without it, I feel like the burn out would be insane.

All in all, I think this is the Year of Puncay. Got his first 1:37, then had a pb shortly after, followed up with a world record. Not to mention, he won PACE (speedrunning competition) earlier in the year as he's always been a solid competition runner. It's been all highs for puncay this year. He's been playing really well too lately. He's definitely capable of getting a low 1:37, maybe even a high 1:36 with the way he's been going.
