I challenged Minecraft's Best Speedrunner to a test of skill

This must have been the closest/most intense lockout bingo of all time. Hope we can do a rematch in the future :D

My favorite part about your races is that you always edit in the other players perspective. Must be a lot more work but really adds to the narrative

The enderchest part is genius!

SmallAnt's "no's" at the end were so heartbreaking incredible match though, really looking forward to the rematch

This is the closest, most entertaining lockout yet. Illuminas speedrunning experience compared to smants lockout experience is a fun match up! I'd love to see a rematch as you both improve!

Think about how impressive SmallAnt actually is, for being able to hang with Illumina that closely. If it wasn’t for that End City RNG, he could’ve won.

This is absolutely insane. The respect for SmallAnt never fades. I think this the only challenge I’ve watched where he lost, and it was still as close as it could possibly be

8:35, this made me laugh soooo much, I have never seen smallant get destroyed like this.

I never would have thought of using a hopper to pick up the obsidian, that was such a big brain move.

the fact that this was so close , even though one person always seemed to be in favour just shows the skill of the players

At first I thought SmallAnt was in over his head, he's literally jumped from lockout bingo with friends to facing the best Minecraft speedrunner ever, and that point where it was 7 to 11 and when he got destroyed by Illumina's lava placement seemed to confirm that for me. But seeing SmallAnt's genius comeback, especially that play with the enderchest, was aweing to see. The fact that he only really lost because of a missplay and Illumina's insane luck is crazy, and I fully beleive he could win upon a rematch. Great job on both sides!

The livestream of SmallAnt punching his way back into The End was one of the most painful things I've watched. Smant did amazing with all odds stacked against him, and it really felt like luck is the only reason he lost.

Honestly just the fact that you kept up with illumina despite his insane luck (skill too but the luck was just…..) Is really impressive. Seriously great lockout.

The goals y’all got were insane this were an absolute RIDE.

That ender chest moment was probably the most epic move I've ever seen in these races

That was absolutely insane. The first tie you were talking about how you still had a chance, I thought it was all just bravado, but you basically pulled off a win there. I agree with Illumina's comment that that was nearly too close to call, and that a future rematch should be held to truly decide this.

I caught the second half of this live and it was the most intense lockout race I've seen! The ending was heartbreaking for everyone rooting for SmallAnt because it was so close. The constant back and forth made it very exciting though :)

Iluminas insane luck all throughout this made me believe in certain people just being blessed

It’s truly amazing how quick Smallant has grown as a content creator, as well as a speedrunner. Keep up the good work!

Absolutely incredible video.
