I preemptively raged cus i was so convinced i missed it entirely and sold the run lmao

I can't imagine how many restarts this must've taken if the whole route depends on a 180 hail mary at the end.

95

u/minecrafthumanoid 8h ago

Dude was grinding for basically an entire work week iirc

56

u/Snoo-6766 4h ago

yea I was sick over the past week and spent like minimum 7 hours a day grinding runs out since I couldn't do much else, I was grinding a lot longer before that as well though

23

u/CKRatKing 5h ago

The guy who (had) the ninja gaiden nes speed run record has done like 80,000+ attempts. That guy was way ahead of everyone else but apparently someone else has him beat by like 1.8 seconds now which is insane.

u/round-earth-theory 4h ago

1 week grind isn't too bad as far as speedruns go.

7

u/Snoo-6766 3h ago edited 43m ago

It was a lot longer than just one week, over the last seven months I easily put 150-200 hours building up to this record

Good job any tips for a loser like me who’s just trying to get the become the master achievement

u/OvercomeFir 11h ago

There’s a secret EPG on the wall at the firing range. That’s what helped me get it.

98

u/SmushyPenguin 11h ago edited 9h ago

WHAT!? That’s the only gun I use so I’m going to have to grab that. It’ll make the gauntlet so much easier for me.

46

u/OvercomeFir 11h ago

I don’t remember exactly where. So look up a video for exact location. But it makes things so much better.

41

u/Sprite_Bottle 11h ago

It's above the shooting range. You gotta do some parkour and hop up to snag it before you fall.

3

u/SmushyPenguin 9h ago

Great! I’ll definitely be grabbing it.

6

u/AgentShovel 9h ago

I grabbed that for my last attempt but it didn’t really help. How are you using it?

4

u/OvercomeFir 9h ago

It’s pretty good for snap shooting targets near walls and obstacles. There’s a video I used to help do it. But I can’t remember the title of it.

u/AgentShovel 8h ago

Got it thanks

For xbox? Map the jump button to your right bumper. It takes some getting used to, but being able to aim and jump helps a lot.

u/DaywalkerDoctor 11h ago

Waiting for cash-mayo to drop a sub-9 in spite now

96

u/Snoo-6766 11h ago

I dont think a sub 9 is humanly possible, i reckon low 9s times are the peak of human gauntlet running

27

u/GSR_DMJ654 10h ago

It there a TAS?

u/KasztanekChaosu 10h ago

What is a TAS?

48

u/MisterVonJoni 9h ago

Tool assisted speedrun. Basically it's a bot that proves the theoretical limit

8

u/Snoo-6766 3h ago

not really, TAS isn't always a bot that plays the game for you. Fzzy's TAS was done with macros for perfect wallkicks and inhuman amounts of lurches along with timescale to slow the game down

-7

u/WolfieWonder274 8h ago

Not exactly I think it’s using mods to slow down the game or perform multiple inputs at once

23

u/PessimiStick 8h ago

It can be both. It just means "Tool Assisted Speedrun", and "tool" can be virtually anything.

3

u/Snoo-6766 3h ago

true but as far as im aware there's nothing like that for the titanfall tas

u/Snoo-6766 1h ago

Dont compare urself to top speedrunners, I'm still nowhere near as good as the best any% runners in terms of skill

45

u/BaronMerc 11h ago

Imagine the implications of this in the titan fall universe like what the fuck do you mean some pilot in training just completed the course in sub 10 seconds how are you supposed to react to that

u/Snoo-6766 1h ago

"All done with the gauntlet?" After I cut fraudstimosas time in 1/3

u/Fallen_Angel_Xaphan 11h ago

CashMayo is dead.

Long live Byotec.

All jokes aside, holy shit I didn't think we would ever get a new champion of the gauntlet. That is absolutely insane. You have earned my respect and my fear.

37

u/LMAOisbeast 9h ago

I give it a week or so before he's back lol. Every time someone dethrones him he takes it back, I'm half convinced he's got runs stockpiled to just replace anyone who beats him.

22

u/dickhall65 9h ago

Of course he does, he's got some 7s in there just in case

27

u/Comicspedia >1000 hours 8h ago

How CashMayo sleeps at night with his unreleased gauntlet recordings

u/Snoo-6766 3h ago

Cash hasnt held the record for well over a year atp, dadadu beat his time with a 10 flat in early 2025

32

u/Toshikills Leg-Ion Pilot 11h ago

Oh snap!! You broke the 10s barrier!

u/Snoo-6766 3h ago

I'm not the first but the other person to do it didnt have an input display so it wasnt eligible for speedrun.com

2

u/Electrical-Basket424 9h ago

I know, i've seen the other invalid run

But i meant officially sub 10, on the leaderboard. It's a big moment in my opinion, i'm glad that it finally happened

Cash hasnt been the record holder for over a year, dadadu got a 10 flat in early 2025 its just in the no dmg boosting category

It's ocd, I have not recognized this as a BALL OAT

It's impressive, not perfect

https://giphy.com/gifs/1O4GuY4CndAP6ILRna

u/Snoo-6766 10h ago

no matter what the record is it'll never be "perfect" since the movement has no ceiling and could always hypothetically be done better
