And Colbert was speaking and distracting him during some of the most important part of the run and cut off before even really showing his win. What a shame.
But once you are at this level, it is the other details that requires grinding:
The thing that sets the run from TFA apart from this run is the hammer bro manipulation that easily fails AND the luck of having good hammer bro movement (6% chance) after the manipulation is done.
Getting those two things on top of good execution is what requires thousands of tries for these top players.
