(update at bottom too) ok s o - first off no im not gonna stop making dumb projects about speedrunning second im very happy even thought it barely changed my record to the nether was about 8:50 or so, but, after not practicing since the last project, i got 7:02 somehow i have yet to look up tips and such, im still going off of my own knowledge my hands arent as stiff anymore, so thats good ig fear of change isnt that bad but its still there since this is mc you can do anything to fix your mistakes ill search up tips later ig lol update: i was talking to my friend and i was attempting to speedrun in the meantime (didnt actually make any progress lol; still no tips or anything, i wasnt timing myself i was just being stupid) and they said that i actually got a pretty good time, and dream usually got into the nether at around 7 minutes (they were basing off other speedrunners too, but i think they dont know if its recent runs or kind of old runs) and that actually made me so happy for some reason like to think, me, a very, VERY new speedrunner with no tips or any idea of how to do anything, getting an actually good and normal time to the nether? like im actually really happy for some reason lol
ok so the world was an island, random seed accidentally left my crafting table many blocks away so i had to climb the hole i made, go craft a better pickaxe, and then run back to the hole anyway there was a ship, i got a treasure map and turn out my crafting table was over it it had water breathing, some leads, a nametag, and 4 pieces of iron (and heart of the sea ofc) perfect amount for a bucket and flint and steel anyway i continued walking on the smol island and found tiny pools of lava, the biggest(?) pool had exactly enough lava for the portal so i made it there then i went looking for the flint almost died in the meantime lol- i accidentally fell in a tiny lava pool beside my portal, but my water saved me so we good got the flint, got 3 pieces of steak, and went to the nether boom, 7 minutes, 2 seconds stopped there because i was happy i realized that if i have my phone face down i cant keep looking at the time and worrying over how much time i spent and wasting my time and just- y e a h so i just flipped it face down and didnt worry about it at all its not much, but im happy :] anyway, so back with the math IM STILL USING BEDROCK BTW, THE GRAPHICS FOR JAVA IS TRASH SO I USE BEDROCK MORE java record is about 15 minutes if i made it to the nether in 7 minutes, i have 8 minutes to get the blaze rods, the pearls and kill the dragon yet again 1-3 minutes for killing the dragon, and since i probably wont have any beds i think in 3 minutes ill have it killed so that means i have 5 minutes to get to the fortress, get the rods, get the pearls, and find the stronghold i wanna keep practicing to get to the nether in like 5 minutes like the normal speedrunners, then ill start working on the nether buh bye <3
