Hello everyone this is etho and today i’m going to be introducing you to a new type of minecraft video that i’m going to be making every once in a while in addition to my LP series and my tutorial videos and these are what i’m gonna be calling speed challenges and i’m sure Most of you in order speed challenges but i’m going to have an objective or several objectives that I need that I need to accomplish within a certain period of time in the game and so for example today I’ve given myself the speed challenge of killing a ghast Within 30 minutes I have to start from a fresh world and I have to play on Normal difficulty with all my challenges I plan on playing without using f3 and I won’t be using beds unless otherwise stated if I die it’s game over I failed I don’t Beat the challenge or challenges in time I fail and the footage the footage is all going to be uncut so it should be pretty fun I think and I want you guys to send me challenges if you’ve got some interesting ideas for things you want me To do just let me know tell me if you have any limitations that you want me to follow like for example not being allowed to create a furnace or a crafting bench or anything like that and your challenges can be you know exploring building things killing things Whatever you think is going to be interesting and challenging of course and so by default I’m just going to be using a random worlds I have to start fresh every time if you want me to use a specific map tell me what seed you want Me to use or if you have a world that you’ve actually created for me just send it to me and all the play that okay all right guys I think I’m ready here you got my difficulty on normal fancy and far just the way I like it So let’s generate our world here and yeah this video is this kind of a test to see what you guys think of it if you like the speed challenge let me know if you don’t let me know if you guys like it I’ll make more assuming of course you Send me your challenges so this is kind of is the test to see if it’s interesting or if it’s a boring type of video and so our challenge is number one I have 30 minutes to kill one gassed on Normal difficulty should be quite interesting I think and let’s go sounds Simple just kill one gas but I think it’s actually going to be quite difficult and our time starts now looks like I’m in the desert kind of or swamp first thing I’m going to do is click some would make my basic tools and that’s that’s probably plenty and now I’m gonna look for some stone oh pretty good generation going on there oh yes it takes sweet yeah so we’re going to need to go to the nether in this challenge which is actually kind of hard to do when you first start up in a world that means we need to make a Portal which means we need lava which means we need to get to the bedrock which means we need that yeah we need to do a lot of things we need a water buckets to move the lava around and we’ll need water to to form our portal And we also need some way to kill the gas so we’ll need bows and some arrows I think I think that’s the best way of doing it so a chances of killing jest with your sword is pretty low I think and so I’m just gonna mine out a bunch Of cobble here to make our tools probably only need about twenty-five they think or silk now let’s get thirty actually all right a little bit late going on gonna make some shells or picks and an axe and a hole for seeds and the sword and also I’m gonna make a furnace J that’s a pretty good let’s try to get those pigs before they disappear we’re going to need health points the regenerates I’m going to be battling quite a few monsters I think and I’m not seeing them oh we got a wolf oh that would be nice To have if I had a bone yes I’m going to collect a few seeds so that we can grow crops on the ground if you get any bones if you might not get any porch and I’ll look you here and it would be nice to find some coal this I’m looking for some Coal while I do this oh sweet you know piggy hahaha sweet my gut – I see another one pure survival here guys rival the fittest chickens are good because they drop the feathers we can make arrows of them if we get Flint all right we got more pigs this is actually A pretty nice world let’s check it out down there there’s probably some cool careful not to fall off here zombie we’re all right we found a chief creeper in there I see some coal no if I really want to venture in there though there that way you guys in situ all Right so we can get some coal for torches and then we can so we’ll need them to tunnel down to bedrock definitely got a bit of coal there could use some more yet that hurt a bit if I die guys it’s game over so got to be careful responding is not allowed Oh is that laughs sweet okay so would be a lot easier if we got lava already kind of makes this too easy I think I’m not complaining okay we also need a lot of iron for buckets and we need would be nice to get some armor too And just mining gravel OPA Flint for arrows and we need flint and steel to light the poor old horse there’s another one here by actually you know what guys I think I’m not going to use that lava at the surface yeah I see you yeah I’m not gonna use That lava at the surface is too cheap I want to I want a better challenge so we’re gonna go all the way down to bedrock I think but I definitely need something else I will we found some iron sweet we need to find some spiders Though for our goal if we don’t have a bow this is kind of a pointless but spiders are like the hardest to finding Chiefs let’s see what street this small iron that’s good another water source we can use yeah oh there’s more hmm I’m gonna try extinguishes Let’s head back to our camp make our first bucket you might try get out of here that probably won’t find any spiders so we need to go hunting at night I think oh it is like that is freaking would I get two arrows that’s not enough let’s try flying some spiders Quickly I’m running low on time creeper and he is chasing me of course wow this is really steep whoa the spider I found a spider Oh ninja spider one string gets up around this probably there might be another on around here zombie you guys probably can’t see anything Bunch of zombies down there no spiders oh this is not looking good ah well we need some spiders where are the spiders I love pigs down there come to think of it I wear shoes and that might be a problem that’s the lava I think I fell down somewhere around here Oh what oh okay you got another buckets um what else do you have no I need more sticks and we’ll make torches and we’ll make our arrows and I’m gonna make some armor not much but I don’t don’t have any food really I could make some some bread but it’ll Take a long time I want to spill it general there’s another guy someone all right let’s follow follow the water and we’re running low on time man I think we’re closer to bedrock so if I don’t find a spider it’s all for nothing empty what’s he done okay Bedrock guys I don’t have any spiders so this is a serious issue I hear spiders sweet try to find them sounds like he’s down here creeper no guilt wow I can’t believe it and die there alright it’s time to do some farming that’s a it’s my only chance to survive All right so what am i at 21 wait a bit tons of arrows make a lot of bread now but my main issue is time I’m out of time pretty much I think and also I need one more string and a portal and the big issue all right let’s get moving A little bit oh there’s another yes I have a chance to as I have a chance all this that please little there’s only four live in there shoot now I can’t get back you have to find some lab that’s plenty leva we’re gonna quickly try make our portal Here J especially because I think someone’s chasing me still and I’m out of food J um actually need a crafting bench need a furnace I’m gonna smell to my iron for some armor while I build my portal oh just about walked off can’t remember how much time I have left Oh and I just fell on top again sweets okay that’s all we need I’m gonna make our our bow really quick here get quite a few arrows good need our iron you need a flint and steel oh man I love a flint that works okay I’m gonna make armor really quick Later portal low on health but it’ll have to do go on torches it’s not much choice problem with the feathers that only guests respond at first there might be one only so if I’m not a time already I probably will run out of time unless I’m really listen looking good don’t hear Any guess can you burn these guys no great come on where are the gas I hear one it’s – at least my team is really late whoa there’s one there’s two there’s so far away though Oh drop my pole you gotta be kidding me darn it it’s nothing coming right either I get High I might people shoot down on him a little extra range and they’re like always close first yeah challenge completely ice challenge complete Wow that was hard I’m going to check the time I’m pretty sure I didn’t make it but we’ll see no no good guys he was like 36 minutes so Unfortunately I have failed my first challenge um it was a tough one though so I don’t feel any humiliation in it if you guys want to try this challenge oh please do and then send me your video responses I’d love to see how you do I’d love to See who gets the best time I probably could have did this one in time if I cheaped out and got the lab at the surface but you know it’s been much of a challenge in anyway I hope you guys liked it let me know and I’ll see you guys next time

This is a potentially new type of minecraft video I might start making on a irregular basis. Whether or not I do more speed challenges depends entirely on the feedback I get from my viewers.
Todays speed challenge is to kill 1 ghast within 30 minutes using a randomly generated world on normal difficulty. Part way through the video I decide to impose the limitation on myself that I can’t use lava from surface pools.
Let me know what you guys think of this video. Be brutally honest!
