Took about 650 attempts, but I finally got the sub 3!
Routed runs in Hades are Seeded runs with precise RNG Manipulation performed by the runner in order to get ideal rooms/enemies/boons/rewards to get the fastest run (in ingame time) possible. Routing is made possible through the use of mods, but legal runs must be performed without mods.
Why so fast? So much Damage???
This route takes advantage of the fact that bonus movespeed in Hades is multiplicative, so each ichor multiplies speed by 20% instead of adding 20%. This combined with Rush Delivery, Cluster Rockets, and plenty of Chaos Flourish boons, creates the monstrosity you see here.

that is without a doubt, one of the most impressive runs I have ever witnessed. Thank you for toiling to get this run.
Like, whaaaaat?
P.S. Amazing 🤩
Why take the acorn into styx? Part of the rng manipulation or assurance?
Love how the music got confused once you one (well technically two) shot the second phase lmao
so much bonus move speed lol
Hey I saw Vorime running this route the other day on stream. Such a rough one to execute.
Holy shit that's so cool
Why do you start shooting everywhere and open up your menu and stuff in the bouldy room? btw this run is insane man
can the styx tunnels be manipulated or only the sack room?
What's the f🥲👍
This is so insane. Watching Zagreus go through those doors in Styx, lol.
