The Minecraft world record was broken just 3 weeks after the previous one but it will not be on the leaderboard firstly let’s see if this run is beatable drip uses his pie chart to find the location of a buried treasure he gets first try Flint then goes back to The surface to explode these trees this gives him blocks and wood so that he can craft a boat doors and tools next he enters a magma Ravine now even though this is faster than no fears nether entry this is still slower than xylon ox’s former world record there was Definitely a little time lost from looting the chest and crafting however drip makes up a lot of that time with this amazing nether portal build even though they got unlucky with the lava depth in the nether drip spawns super close to a Bastion and heads directly towards it with some great speed Bridging he starts the Bastion route in the same Bastion as the former world record by Noir and the route is really clean drip takes very little damage throughout but the route ended up being a little bit slow drip got a little bit unlucky with where these gold blocks can Spawn getting far less than Noir got in his world record but drip also took extra time to go for this backup block that’s deeper down this lost him just a few seconds drip gets really unlucky in this second ramp part as well he only gets two out of the possible five gold Blocks that can spawn here this is probably another reason why the bast route was slower than it could have been the real evidence that this Bastion route was slightly slow was because the pigs finished trading while he’s still looting chests I DMD drip for insight into this and he said he started being Nervous when he saw the fort and you can see he actually threw his axe in the Bastion by mistake this must have been from nerves a well-timed pearl hang and looting the chest a little earlier could have saved a few seconds now this is obviously a really small time loss but But in these fastpaced runs every second counts the second Pearl towards the Fortress took a really long time to land and drip unfortunately goes into F5 mode when it does land meaning that they’re not able to block clutch onto the side of the Fortress this forces him to swim up the Lava and build out losing another few seconds the most upsetting part of this run is the blaze rates this run could have been so much faster if drip was just a little luckier because the first three blazes don’t drop any rods but if you click subscribe right now this next one will oh Thanks sadly drip doesn’t decide to use Dynamic render distance as I explained in the noar analysis this strategy may have spawned a few extra stray blazes but luckily he finds a spawner and with the next four blazes all dropping it wasn’t a huge time loss drip also does a Really cool strategy to open up the spawner this allows more valid spots for blazes to spawn this means on average he will get more blazes per spawn cycle drip leaves the nether with five rods at 4 minutes and 26 seconds which actually isn’t the fastest time we’ve Seen former world record holder no fear has a 4 minutes and 19 seconds nether leave drip throws just one eye using boat eye which is a very precise method to measure where the stronghold is a really clean second Overworld split puts drip on Amazing Pace with just a Few movement errors likely due to nerves because he’s over 2 minutes ahead of his previous personal best time as drip comes back into the nether a blaze spawns perfectly on the spawner dropping his sixth Rod meaning he can definitely enter the end he just needs to travel to The second portal coordinates which he navigates perfectly this part of the run is pretty much perfect with only 10 or so blocks of speed bridging required sometimes Runners need to dig through walls or build portals under lava if the seed is really unlucky but this is as close to perfect as possible Drip enters the stronghold at 5 minutes and 22 seconds finally beating the longstanding record of krux who had a 5 minute 27 second stronghold enter which has been the fastest stronghold enter since July of 2022 almost 2 years ago drip uses pre Ive stronghold navigation using the pie chart in the bottom right To locate the end portal he perfectly Roots the stronghold going directly to the portal room with no wrong turnings at all at 5 minutes and 44 seconds drip is in the end the fastest end enter ever but this is where the biggest time save Could Happen drip could have spent a few Extra seconds in the portal room to prepare for a zero cycle the fastest way to kill the Ender Dragon if instead he goes straight in the zero cycle would have been difficult as it’s a back dragon with a tower height of 91 but experienced Runners can successfully hit These zero Cycles with six explosives and given drip had copious amounts of pearls food and blocks he definitely could have hit this and saved some more time I spoke to drip about this afterwards and he said I would love a fast time like that with zero cycle but everything went so fast I didn’t have the time to pre-craft beds in the portal room he also didn’t know how many explosives he had he only knew he had five or maybe more because the string from the chest in the Bastion didn’t add to the ones in his inventory drip in fact did have six explosives so He maybe could have hit this zero cycle saving even more time on the run but luckily drip did get a fast Purge converting the fastest Pace run ever into the world record with a clean one cycle well it was the world record until moderators found a mod that was not allowed in Minecraft Speedrunning I sent drip a DM just to ask him a few questions about the run and unfortunately he said okay hi sorry I woke up to mods telling me it’s not getting verified drip sadly had a mod in his files to prevent the game from crashing which executes just a few lines Of code although this mod is open source and on GitHub it hasn’t been officially Allowed by the leaderboard moderators so technically this world record will not be on the leaderboards at least for now so even though this run isn’t cheated it won’t make it onto the official leaderboards do you think this run Should be an official world record let me know below and if you want to watch the analysis of the official world record click here by Video Information

This video analyses the new Speedrun World Record for Minecraft by @drip120_ that has been rejected by the leaderboard moderators, due to an unverifiable mod. UPDATE (9th Jan) THE RUN WILL NOW BE VERIFIED! As will all runs that have used simple mods solely for the purpose of crashing and accessibility, as long as those mods can be checked quickly and verified to not be malicious.
This speedrun is not cheated, or fake (as far as we know) – however it will not be on the leaderboards as the New World Record for Minecraft Speedrunning. Should the leaderboard moderators make an exception? Or does this set a bad precedent for future submissions? Let me know below.
