Dan challenged me to an Isaac race...

i woke up the morning saw a dm from northern lion he said what are we gonna do this week isaac race i said i'd love to and then he opened up a little package on the outside it said nacl also called sodium he says hey have you ever heard of something called freeze technique and he sent me this video from an mlb it's going to be the freeze eat the freeze the hot dog runs around tries to catch the bun but the bun has like a five minute head start he's like yeah we can do it like this i'll give you a five minute head start and then i'll catch up and beat you and i said no thank you sir i'll beat you straight up and he said well well well i don't think you can do that i didn't say that i you know i i don't mind leaking the dm in that situation to avoid oh don't think it because there's other information okay yeah you can link it i believe i was talking about beat the freeze and then you said i'll beat you straight up i did repo reply lmao in all caps so like yeah well you want me to take that then i said we can do that too it's possible for sure you're no slouch that's a nice that's a nice thing to say yeah but you're that's like you're doing pr cleanup 101. you just spilled like uh you know cranberry juice all over the streets and you're like hey yeah it was an accident you know it was it was just hey i acknowledge i have played more of the game i have more familiarity with it for sure so i thought it was some bravado that you would want to do it straight up instead of like a beat the freeze style however i i acknowledge that i'm the favorite but i also acknowledge that hey man in life every once in a while luke skywalker manages with no targeting computer to shoot the photon torpedoes right into the exhaust port of the death star or you could get your nose broke in an nba playoff game and instead of crying about it and going you know getting a plastic mask you you duke it out you throw your body on the line you get a 0.9 second alley-oop to deandre eight and you win the playoff game can i tell you um that until yesterday yeah i thought ben simmons and ben wallace were one guy hmm i thought he just some may say their shooting ability is similar but i thought that it was just one guy who had been playing basketball for like like 27 years it wasn't like i i don't think i've ever seen photos of them i've only heard their name so i was just like man ben simmons is still playing huh i remember he won the championship with detroit in like 2004. that's crazy we did i'll tell you what i was driving yesterday and i had youtube tv audio playing in my car for the lottery pick oh the pistons had a 14 chance to get the number one pick when they got it i i mean i had like i had like meme vane bulge screaming in my car at a red light though um but it's just from lottery picks to lottery picks so i we can do this on a seed because chad's worried that you have more unlocks than me i agree i think a seed makes sense yeah okay can we just can we just make up a seed and just see what happens you should just start one is whatever character you want to be i i would honestly say like isaac makes the most sense just because then like the when you d6 or don't d6 add a little extra like variance for your personal play style in there okay but what if i just want to type in a seed just because it's going to sound funny like medusa fights icarus angels you could just start like a run with the if you if you're worried about fairness and no that's the reason that you wanted to do it you did run then maybe instead of having one participant choose a seed you should let the random number generated okay here are you right tell me if you're ready for it you ready for it okay i am ready willy billy dilly one illy 6z tilly killy i think i got it okay wbd1 6ztk uh zed is zero oh okay okay silly of course yeah silly is his zero nut zed okay okay i think i think i'm ready are we saying you want to stay on hot mic for this um you tell me what do you think so i i i how about how about just bm check-ins for the first race i don't know honestly we could stay on mike chad's saying yes yes yes yes yes yes yes yes yes i don't want to deprive them of that okay all right you can give us a three two one go all right three two one go what direction did you go i just hit the space bar on hard but oh oh it's b beat the freeze is active no no no he started a second early now it's time to start running them down that's part of it too is one if i win i don't want to win of course yeah you know with gold pine resin you know internally but also externally i've been i it was on my mind because i've been watching this uh i've been watching this uh netflix trivia show called the chase where essentially like uh three people who are pretty good at trivia go up against one guy who's like insanely good at trivia and uh over the course of the show they start making uh progress like the every question they get right puts a number on the board then at the end of the game the the guy who's a trivia god has like two minutes to answer that many questions correctly and catch up with them and it's just it's really engaging watching them uh like just just lose basically like watching them try their hardest and then just like one guy just like do you see the number like slowly getting closer and closer and closer and then like you know they're like who played the the voice of the computer in the spike jones film her and he's just like scarlett johansson and then it's just over there's like no fireworks or anything they're just dead so that wasn't is that the same thing that was in the back channel about the star wars trivia someone posted did you see that clip i was like i did not you didn't see it was like a star wars trivia and someone's like who was the pilot that was the the third wing to luke and someone's like wedge antilles congratulations yeah um real quick too that the end destination is streamer room correct stream let's make sure this is just chests cause i was gonna say like uh there's ground rules that probably don't need to be said but like just for edge cases maybe like if we ever do like a beat the freeze style thing you can't just go to the eddy room and then like teleport straight to the dark room that would be i like that stretch it's a funny idea don't get me wrong that was the first thing that popped into my head is is how would this guy try to use a loophole to to get ahead of the situation not that you would need to but if the chance uh afforded itself would you not but is the taking a loot well that's good so that's like there's ground rules right i think so yeah i think it's trouble shovels not ground rules i think the shovel is fine i think i think if you get the shot you want to give up your space bar uh spot for a shovel then then by all means where are you at right now just quick avionics i'm uh i'm basement two okay how about you did you bomb the boss what did you do uh i did i did you wanna you wanna talk about like some of the items you have available i wouldn't be surprised that we got some differences already oh i wouldn't be surprised about it either all right oh we should have rolled it we didn't have okay it's okay it's okay sorry um okay i i took i took the path less traveled you took the old path no are you insane i i beat the boss and did you go in the curse room uh i don't recall you talking about in the second floor no you're already off the second floor no i'm still on second floor oh no i'm talking thirsty oh okay so you didn't because the the curse room took you to the devil deal oh did it yeah so now i have brimstone what i don't believe him well you know what if if it's true you just got to put in a little uh little extra smoke on him here so here's my question for you would you skip an item room to get ahead uh yes i would okay did i yes i did if i did it here's how i would have done it okay what are your let's say what are your thoughts on you we've been talking a lot about o.j on the stream lately so really it comes up now and then wha what are your thoughts on or until james is that his first oriental or in thought that's a good question i don't have an answer for that one um i think that's right though i think it's a it's bad optics um to get acquainted with murder and then write a book that was like i didn't do it but if i did it here's how i would have killed my wife it's not funny i i think it's one of let's just call it perhaps one of the most tone-deaf moves in history if the man's actually uh innocent of the crime to be because you just imagine like imagine you went through the most traumatic ordeal you could everything possible your wife got murdered okay for one secondarily you got falsely accused of it dragged through you know incredibly long stressful court proceedings expensive everybody in the world has an opinion on you about uh you know whether or not you actually did this thing that in this hypothetical situation you didn't do and then afterwards you you're like you know what i would do now just write a book about like what if i did it what what if i all that stuff that ruined my life i didn't do it but like if i actually did it i got here's how i would have does it it just strikes me as something that uh you probably it wouldn't occur to me i i think i would be like thank god that's over now i will never leave my house again yeah i probably wouldn't write a book about like you know if i killed my spouse would you have sold your heisman trophy uh i mean to to cover legal fees i i suppose you got to do what you got to do right it's fair i mean what else i mean i don't know what else you're gonna do would you have sold your heisman trophy um i wouldn't be in that situation okay that's i wouldn't be in that situation i wouldn't say that i wasn't good enough to play american college uh football maybe canadian but all right what room are you in i'm on the boss of the third floor what direction was that boss it's worth a shot you know it's like sometimes you you're playing football and you ask ask the other player across from me is the play coming this way and if they're feeling cocky they say yeah really yeah they think yeah like if they think they can steamroll you you gotta coach that out of them that's uh you never give away something like that for free let me tell you champions of fire one i was a crossy road superstar because i did the research and i knew that of the permitted characters aladdin uh had a much easier level than any of the other characters available so if your average score as mickey mouse was like you know 70 your average score as aladdin would be like 300. then after i remember that after the first round they interviewed me and they were like what's your secret and i was like well you got to play as aladdin and then everyone was like ah and i was like oh no what was i what was i thinking did you uh would you do that in chess tournaments too i'm gonna move my queen seven to the bishop three i i was very serious about my my chess gameplay when you did that was there a physical timer like where you slap most times yes that's kind of it's very dude chess timers are like ubiquitous in chess tournaments but they're always the same they're always there oh because otherwise like what like if you're playing a tournament and you only have uh you know five hours or six hours to get through five games how do you guarantee that the games are going to be over in time use your casio watch the calculator watch did you have one of those yeah but how do you determine who because you know what happens is that it's like magic in match of the gathering if your game goes to time you get five extra turns in order to finish it otherwise it ends up in a freaking draw i'm sure it happens all the time people are at magic they're playing against somebody who like doesn't know the rules they take 20 minutes for each turn and then they're why are you picking on us why are you then the judge is like oh you guys are on turns now and you're like well mathematically i can't even finish this game off so i just i i get in a draw with somebody who sucks at the game because of the fact that they were slow i'm telling you chess clocks they would they they solve problems in games like that did you prefer the chest clock with the button or with like the on off light switch um i i had here's how much of a nerd i was i had uh at least one of each i might i might have had a couple of the buttons i definitely bring your own clock yeah i mean they're pretty i didn't know that it depends on the tournament but like most of these uh like chess is not generating a ton of money at like the local level so you know each each clock being like 30 or 40 bucks or something like that you know it adds up for like a local chess club nothing beats the the old school like bell button though for sure but i i had a couple light switch ones no doubt you pro so you preferred like the single led button deal uh no like the um the old-school like brass looks almost like a brass nail that you hit oh that's the ticket right there that's gotta be somewhat defeating if you're playing chess and you put the push the button down and it makes the other person's button go up yeah and you know you're watching the flag it's like the the second hand is on the flag and you're like oh oh oh so have you ever did you ever time someone out in real life it happens yeah but it normally it it doesn't happen too much in like classical chess uh you know like longer time controls usually at that point you don't get flagged which is the that's the parlance you don't get flagged that much in classical just because of the fact that you got like two hours to see it coming so if anything you just uh resign faster um but in in like blitz and uh and rapid and and bullet it happens all the time high myoticity oh yeah i mean you're familiar yeah that's how i win all my [Laughter] are you done with chess for a while ooh did you go in the d6 room uh i don't know what floor are you on uh water level you you went in the all path no oh fl you're on the flooded caves yeah oh you plus one also on the the flooded caves still uh i don't get cocky we're only 10 minutes and and 29 seconds in here what are you trying to say oh you hit me with this still that's that's like thanks for congratulations on your second place finish i didn't say that i said congrats on your silver i was yesterday i you know i'm not gonna lie crossed my mind yesterday but it's some bm into the mix well once well once you were streaming that dnd game and i saw i saw the reaction to it i'm like i could post go into my iphone and post the silver metal emoji um okay yeah you know but i'm like i'm like that better not honestly in in some situations it wouldn't annoy me but it could like get under my skin yeah but like that one i i lost like so obviously fair and square that i was like i i'm happy with my second place honestly yeah i was i wasn't too perturbed but after champions of salt when you get you know voted out by your friends uh and then if you would come in and placed it uh uh pasted a third place like bronze emoji i might have been like you know what i'll just i'm gonna compartmentalize that one for now and we'll deal with it we'll deal with that in a later date i won't forget it you're not gonna get a reaction but i won't forget it that's kind of one of those deals it's more like i'm gonna i'm gonna as a result of our friendship i'm gonna let that one pass and like hopefully it doesn't happen again otherwise maybe then we'll address it i feel like that's a key to life if you give something like 12 to 24 hours to simmer like it's not even hot the next day could you i couldn't agree more honestly there's this uh there's this phyllis philosopher on tick-tock yeah joe rogan okay no it wasn't joe rogan but there's this philosopher on tick-tock and um he had two pop bottles okay and he shook up one pop bot he shook him both up two pop bottles equally so he's kind of like i remember socrates used to do this yeah this they took this from from ancient greece if i remember correctly and uh he opened up one and it sprayed everywhere like that you know that um the lady elderly yeah and then he waited like you know another 10 seconds and then opened the other one and didn't explode he said life is like a shaken up pop bottle let it simmer and you don't get angry look at that that makes sense yeah are you in the uh uh yeah i can't i'm on the dank depths one now i uh i think the people on the internet are uh insane do you ever like see those threads on reddit probably not because i think you're less terminally like online than i am but there's these subreddits like r slash relationships where they're just literally like any anyone has a dispute with their partner so many of the comments are like um yeah you guys should like definitely break up it's it's so disrespectful that like your wife ate your leftovers from the fridge when she was like super hungry and had to uh eat right away to like you know go to her grandfather's wake or something like that um like that you should be with somebody who like respects your time more than that and i'm like what if instead of that you just like um got over it i guess and like recognize that like people do things all the time that if you ask other people what their thoughts are on it they'd be like oh i wouldn't have done that and uh you know you just kind of hope that it comes out in the wash right do you ever play like fire extinguisher on that subreddit and like say that no i would never post anything unrelated to my own stream on uh on my reddit account plus like posting on reddit is like what are you trying to accomplish yeah well let me ask you this because you have to feel like you're more you're like level 10 reddit i'm like level six okay um so i've told i've told this story before i'm not gonna rehash it but i found the photo of the student um who made that that orange creation yeah and i'm i wanna i wanna farm up votes to the moon on that one i'm gonna i'm gonna give him credit i don't know where the kid is anymore but i'll put his name on it where would you post that r slash images um uh our r slash next freaking level really i think that's where you want it r slash next freaking level okay and then what would the the real tight bait title be i made the u.s main gaming uh student makes one student in my class has been silent all year you gotta you gotta build the story right he never talks to anybody one day i see him in the lunchroom and look at the and his father um you know you just you can figure it out for yourself there so something based on on this to some degree what um what's the origin story of your um reddit name uh i posted the it was like an april fool's thing i think like it's uh i was making a joke in like an april fool's day thread or something so i say is opposite day you know what was the joke i have i mean this is like 11 years ago or something like that it's a long time ago i have no memory whatsoever what's what's that what's the origin of uh how you always say i mean like it like someone not remembering an income you remember everything i don't i came second in the trivia show this guy always assumes like oh hey what'd you have for breakfast like uh on march the 12th 1997 and you're like i don't remember and i mean why are you hiding the information i mean some may call you a intellectual memorical savant what is uh memorial act of memory oh of course my mistake my mistake yeah what do you think i meant what are you at by the way right now um in in terms mom's fight what okay it's good you know i got to step it up a little bit where are you at uh not at the mom's fight close i would say i would say i could be close oh let's go prop bet real quick by the way who's going to win this we should do that earlier me or ryan i want to see the odds well the odds now are they should look a little bit more in your favor honestly you're ahead and you have you you have a higher y intercept and you also have a higher uh rate of uh of increase this is not like technology i wish i would say it would take like a miracle at this point for me to for are you taking into account all potential xyz and derivative factors um there's something called called have you ever heard of something called play action i don't know direction i have i have heard of play action yeah can i ask you like from a specific sense how would one uh perform a play action uh in uh the binding of isaac you know what i could do i can't tell you that i was on the mom fight but actually i'm not on the mom fight play action to the running back it looks like he's got the ball all of a sudden whoop-dee-doo yeah have you ever seen the video of of soulja boy oh by the way i took the wrong um i took the wrong item on the mom fight when i already fought mom 10 minutes ago yeah when i was there um any chance we could have a gentleman's arrangement to pivot this to uh a chest fight instead of a streamer room are you play actioning me i'm not playing action in you well you'd have to ask your chat i mean the binding rules say that you know i'm realizing now why i got so much credit on uh unschooled i mean the the the the job of school was hey you know just like when when i got a question get the grandma nuts house and they're like well i'm not a grandma nuts i'm going to go to larry licorice when i got a question wrong and and didn't try to uh weasel out of it people were like this is the most honorable man i've ever seen on this platform but is it honorable if you make a mistake and then ask for the rules um well here's what i would say you can go to the chest if you want i think my expectation is chat would say if anything the dark room is actually harder uh it's a harder path to take than the cathedral so i don't mind putting myself at a little bit of a disadvantage um i'll go gentlemen's agreement you know i i will say whatever the dark room ending is that's fine i am not gonna pivot there because i want the pogs of the streamer room that's understandable you know i understand hey you're running a marathon and you made a wrong turn you had to yeah they're not going to deactivate my chip just because i ran longer right oh he he cheated by adding an extra mile into the marathon no i'm cool with that all right all right but for some reason i thought it was shorter maybe just because i'm better at that path you think so no i couldn't tell you what the dark path i don't know if anybody's better at fighting satan than isaac that's uh um i i will say as well if if this run went streamer room zero percent chance i'd die now if it went dark room the chance is non-zero it's probably probably in the low double digits so now the only oh my only issue with this is that if we win this is there going to be an asterisk i i think if if you beat me there would be no asterisk on this whatsoever there might be an asterisk uh in insane people's heads if i beat you because by taking the negative instead of the polaroid i got like a 0.8 damage increase instead of some temporary invincibility um i've only got two words to say to those people redacted redact redacted grass how long has i feel like until until i until star citizen came out redacted wasn't a word why are they using um redacted in star citizen so much was it like hey we went we meant to add in uh all these new features but chris roberts spent all your money on redacted it's like they're teasing new but they they didn't want you to know the name ah okay i see yeah that's hey that to me is like they didn't even redact that that was never dacted no but no all right gg oh you lost yeah oh and no no respawns i mean no i mean yeah you didn't you didn't have like an extra life or something no did you yeah i think instead of brimstone my devil deal had nine lives in it you know what no finish it because i'm gonna pog to the moon here do we play the same seed though or just go um what do you think look no no i think if you die you're gonna need a little extra help you know a little extra help by having the same seed by having no different seeds maybe i'll get like maybe i'll get like free shovels wouldn't it be helpful for you to know where all of the uh items are and what they are in the bosses and no i don't think so all right i like to i like to live my my life on the roll of a dice wouldn't you i mean like to me no honestly this is like no memes i'd rather have a chance at a shovel and catch up okay that yeah i could understand that i suppose like i'm i'm being incepted by the way you didn't have uh brimstone that was just a uh that was a ruse yeah that was the play action no the play action was already beating mom but i hadn't even seen mom yet uh oh okay i mean realistically i could actually die on this one for sure like yeah yeah i mean like possible it is how what's your what's your age at okay when i said that originally he was at one but then i picked up an item and play-acted you i'm now at uh five what item gave you five pajamas blue hearts though yes but that's the only hearts i've had like for the whole run uh did you take death touch i did yeah how did you get in there um i don't even know where it was where was it chad got mad at me because i rerolled it's like you know what do you want me to do the the bar was there it was it wasn't mom's knife like this is my first ever isaac race dot space dot space dot give you a little head start for a second no no that's that's good it's good that's my real bait oh okay you're real that'll that'll be the first race my second race will be racing against streamer with ten thousand hours in isaac we hustled world's best isaac player question mark and then whether you win or lose and whether i'm uh the best player in the world or not the question mark does all the heavy lifting for you exactly um what's your confidence at right now my confidence that i will beat the lamb is like 97 okay i'm in a a very good spot i got some strong items uh my confidence that my confidence is correct is low okay but my confidence that i win is high okay i will say this though the the other thing that we didn't read in the bylaws is that it is a three-game series oh okay yeah so that that was the that was redacted actually dude oh no more isaac content oh jeez i don't know if i can play that much isaac hey um you should download the eddie mod what is the eddie mod the eddie mod turns the icon of the eddie rooms into a picture of eddie on the map yeah that's that's really good that's very funny it's uh probably my favorite current mod i feel like in your historically speaking you have not even dipped your your pinky toe in the mod pool very much my opinion um it it's you're gonna get me in a little bit of trouble and yeah really i'm gonna get me in a little bit of trouble okay you're just gonna ask the question and i'm gonna be stupid enough to answer it most of the time i feel like in a game like isaac that's like meticulously uh balanced and stuff like that i've been skeptical to add mods that change gameplay which i understand obviously like the pog mod and the eddy mod or not yeah just because of the fact that it's like hey you know i guess in my head it's the idea that like hey the person who came up with this game thought that this was like the perfect iteration uh and they got like a team of people that are working together to make sure that that's true as true as possible but then one person is like um hey wouldn't it be cool there was like an item that was like brimstone but like better and then you know but that being said there are situations first off there are mods that are awesome like uh you know anti-birth to begin with that led to repentance but secondarily there's also situations like uh dsfix where you know like from software and bandai namco uh came out with dark souls prepare to die edition on pc and it was like horrible and uh then durant was not kevin durant kevin katie money sniper on instagram maybe it's dorante now that i think about it but he like uh made it like in in a couple of days he was like oh by the way guess what like it's 60 fps now and uh uh is good instead of bad which is uh i thought was kind of noteworthy so but i mean but you already got your real thoughts out there your real thoughts are like it's like hey someone made the perfect artisan marbled rib eye and you're like oh i can make one better yeah no with my home brew kind of yes ant farm but there are situations where it happens i'm not denying that yeah no i'm with you i feel the same way about mods and like i'm i'm just i love how easy it is to mod this game but i'm the same way i don't think i thought like that um how do you say arrogantly about it but uh i'm just joking no that's fair no no i don't i don't think that at all um i don't want to change the gameplay i just like i like the little cosmetic stuff yeah you know and honestly like pog mods seem super cool or just funny which is basically what i would want um oh i have eye i shouldn't be oh but uh it's the same way it's like because then i feel like you're not playing like the uh the achievements are not real and then you know yeah and there's so much i mean like i haven't discovered everything in the game yet much less like how everything interacts with everything and like you just and people are like you know i i it all comes back and i don't want to go off on a rant on this so i'll stop myself when it becomes a little bit too much but people i think like kind of suck at uh giving criticism some of the times and uh it leads to situations where it breeds resentment for things that there shouldn't be like one of the reasons that i'm kind of like not anti-mod but just like i get annoyed with the question is because people phrase it like why don't you ever use mods and i'm like we're living in ever right now you don't know whatever's gonna be like or you know will you ever use mods and i'm like i don't know the future but i do know every time someone asks me this question it it moves it like another uh six months down the road yo i just got my first chico stick room what is chico stick it's that gum that uh fruit fruit by the foot gum it's like by wrigley it's on the floor it's on the floor yeah in the room chico's fruit stripe fruit stripe chico stick gum chick fruit stripe chicken stick oh you a planetarium yeah i don't know how i got it but i got it what'd you get out of it um is it pluto a slice of uranus excuse me pluto i don't even know what pluto is it's uh the disney character hahaha from from the netflix show yo speaking of netflix shows there's uh they're redoing he-man oh yeah which i was like a big he-man kid and uh but i i tweeted this but i learned at the age of my age not when i was a kid he-man's cat is called cringer [Laughter] how did that pass qa that is good stuff all right dan i have i have entered the chest and i have watched the ending for the game okay i have i think i have gg gg [Music] thank you yeah it's a long so long series one zero all right now i got now i got my sea legs
