Achieved my goal of 2:2x on the eve of Sleep’s Dio Beo route being finished. Might be the fastest Eris ever goes. There’s still room to push it if someone else wants to take up the challenge but I’ll be playing the Dio Beo route for the foreseeable future. Sorry/not sorry for the truly degenerate amount of pause buffering, that’s what it took to grind out these last few seconds.
Huge shoutout to SatanIsAChillGuy who gave me the motivation to pick up Seeded Any Heat again back in February and paradigmsort who developed tooling and helped Satan reroute the Styx to speed up the end of the run.
Expect a Beowulf time faster than this to show up very soon!

You’re nuts!!!! That was so impressive, well done!
Crazy
Crazy awesome run! I admit the pause buffering made it kind of hard to watch but I totally get the need for it given the precise inputs and crazy speed that you have by the end. Little question: is the acorn at the end just for security? It didn't do anything obviously but I guess the other keepsakes don't really give more damage.
Also for anyone curious, by the end Zag is moving at 16.35 times his normal speed (and from rush delivery is doing 16.35 times his normal damage).
Pardon my ignorance, but if it's any heat, why not play with no heat? I'm sure there's a reason, but I can't figure it out.
Are you planning to do any Hades II runs whilst it’s in Early Access?

I wish I could see this without the pauses and just witness the actual solid 2 mins of gameplay, that would be sick.
Would be a lot more pleasant viewing experience without all the pauses
