Speedrunning has one goal and that’s to go FAST.
Maybe you’ve played a game or two or watched a few videos online. Or maybe you’re a long time fan of the interactive digital world. Video games are a popular form of electronic entertainment that revolves around user inputs by players.
Sometimes, when playing games, you stumble across something strange or cool that probably wasn’t intended. This is the case for many players. Some players take it a step further and attempt to replicate it for fun or to show friends. Found tricks are a fun way to spice up gameplay.
But wait; maybe there’s something more to these tricks. Games are fun, but replay value is limited. So how is it remedied? By creating unique challenges that utilize these tricks. Enter speedrunning, an intense e-sport that’s basically as old as the first video games. The goal? Complete a game as fast as possible.
The Wind Waker is a popular Legend of Zelda Speedrun that has had active members since 2005. With its flashy game breaking tricks and extensive categories spanning between both the Original and HD versions, it’s no wonder the game became grounds for a speedrunning community.
