ROTW #126 - shNz on kz_deathvalley

By Ovidiu Dumitru·
Hello there, welcome to the 126th edition of the Run Of The Week!

The last ROTW under Airwalk Media.

Everybody was going nuts when they saw that shNz recorded again. And I thought, why not make them going nuts again? And why wouldn't they? Apart from seeing a great player jumping, he jumped so well that he managed to pull off an amazing 12 seconds improvement. What do you say about that?
And please shNz, be kind enough and let us know in the comments below how do you do it.

tjabba couldn't stay away from the frontpage for too long and so we have him present in this edition as well. He is improving fast and this can be seen with each video he makes. This is a great video and I'm positive he will soon be a force in the moviemaking scene.

This ROTW covers the WR Release #642.

Note: A new approach has been chosen with ROTW streaming availability. It will remain as "Unlisted" on the YT channel until the next ROTW will be released. So the only way you can view the video is through this news or a direct link.

See you next time for a new ROTW edition!

01/12/2013 03:13:00

the legend strikes again!

01/12/2013 03:18:00

That SC! Awesome! could be done faster, go shNz! :D

01/12/2013 03:35:00

since the release i was hoping this is going to be the rotw ... once again gj shnz and nice edit lol :)

01/12/2013 03:46:00

Shnz gj impress me you can do faster <3

01/12/2013 03:56:00

there are so many other players who make great demos but never get that fact highlighted through rotws. was hoping to see kropeq get one. who chooses these? :<

01/12/2013 04:29:00

here, have my like! or +1

01/12/2013 10:33:00

I was expecting the same man... kropeq keep up man

01/12/2013 14:01:00

You're totally right, pizza. Kropeq was doing an awesome work here through the years and he was always underestimated/ underrated. Sometimes no one even noticed his hard work when any of "familiar names" had some worse shit in the release. Nothing against shNz, sc is amazing and very hard but imo the run isn't good enough. Peace.

01/12/2013 04:27:00

shNz ftw

01/12/2013 04:27:00

as much as i like shnz i dont think it was the right run choice + the editing was.. hmmm.. nothing special... as usual i guess :<

01/12/2013 04:28:00

i don't know why this got to be ROTW. No disrespect to shNz who did an amazing job, but this isn't the best demo of the week, plus it has fails. Just because of the new sc? or the name of the jumper? Pizza is right. Whoever chooses these, choose more wisely next time. Other than that, nice vid and run.

01/12/2013 08:42:00

Bad choice to rotw and bad run....

01/12/2013 08:43:00

keltAnen did it better

01/12/2013 08:44:00

improve ir!

01/12/2013 09:13:00

not impressed

01/12/2013 14:38:00

Professional hater :D

01/12/2013 14:57:00

Professional hater.

01/12/2013 09:51:00

Even with fails he beats by 12 seconds,, nice =D

01/12/2013 21:52:00

This kinda reminds me on LEWLY. He take a record with 20 seconds of improvements but with so many fails that makes me ask myself how the hell is this possible.

01/12/2013 10:30:00

Another fail-choice for rotw, wtf?

01/12/2013 10:36:00

really bad ROTW choice, anyway gj shNz once again

01/12/2013 12:38:00

this map can be done 1.34~, I dont understand why this demo is for rotw, but still respect to shNz)

01/12/2013 13:28:00

As a newbie, this run looks absolutely breathtaking. Sick job shNz!!! If people aren't satisfied with the choice of ROTW, why not add a vote system? Demo with the most votes gets to be ROTW. :P?

01/12/2013 13:34:00

He probably tried to beat the map normally, but he failed, so he decided to give a shot and do that crazy sc, and boooom he did it. But in reality, ROTW runs are supposed to be clean, without bigger fails. He lost 5 seconds on stupid fail. But, anyways he did great job, there is no one else in here who can pull out no fail run with sc like that. And considering he doesn't play 24/7 anymore, he becomes more "human", so he fails more often.

01/12/2013 13:41:00

This demo is doesn't deserve it...

01/12/2013 13:41:00

What a run by shnz, i'm just speechless. I'm also very glad to see him back after a really long break. Keep it up buddy! ;)

01/12/2013 14:02:00

DC, toytoy agree.

01/12/2013 14:02:00

DC,toytoy agree

01/12/2013 14:42:00

This demp is doenst` deserve it...

01/12/2013 15:35:00

kropeq o j2s_autumn was way better, also this map can be done in 1.34~ + he had fail, that sc is only 256 units.I respect shNz but i dont like this rotw, sorry.

01/12/2013 16:19:00

Well what can I say guys.. seeing this demo being chosen for rotw makes me both happy and sad. When I did this demo I was frankly frustrated with it as it is a total piece of garbage and not even that shortcut makes it any better.. In fact this SC is not even that hard and I'm pretty sure all of the top players could fairly easy beat the shit out of this record. And don't get me wrong, I feel so flattered seeing that my work has been appreciated once again, I really do, but I also have to agree with the majority here that this was not the right choice for rotw this week.. It makes me feel bad that so many astonishing demos have been overlooked in favour of mine.. Demos that obviously deserve to be on the front page much more. From quite some time I had this kind of a bad feeling, that I'm somewhat overrated and I really hoped it wasn't true, because I've always wanted to be priced for the good quality of my work, and not because of my nick, but seeing something like this makes me think that exactly the opposite is happening, and I never wanted that.. Anyway, I really hope you guys enjoyed this demo at least one bit and I would like to sencirely congratulate every participant of the release. Great job fellows recorders, keep it up! Some of you should've been here instead..

01/12/2013 21:32:00

This guy's humbleness, non-arrogance and down-to-earth mentality keeps him at a much higher league above most of the other pro recorders, not forgetting the skills he already possess. Congratulations for that fantabulous demo.

02/12/2013 07:38:00

Stop posting disturbing pics on facebook :D (and scaring the shit out of me) and get your lazy ass back to improving this run without fails :gj:

01/12/2013 16:38:00

Beautiful IMO. :)

01/12/2013 17:09:00

He probably tried to beat wr normally, then he failed, so only chance to still beat the wr is to try that difficult sc, and booom he did it. In other words, only reason he made wr is because of that sc, not because of some crazy flow like he did on femtobhop few days ago. Anyways nice run, not many people can do that do that sc, and probably no one can do that sc with good run other than shnz.

01/12/2013 19:07:00

ez

01/12/2013 19:41:00

Only now i can see my comments, ftw

02/12/2013 01:22:00

Same shitty type of songs every rotw. Do you guys only listen to Drum n bass and shitty Dubstep/House? Seriously?

02/12/2013 02:07:00

good work!.. no comments about the choice.. already posted by everyone

02/12/2013 07:14:00

i beat deathvalley about 4-5 months ago with this sc but never submit the dem and i told that to shnz and now he does it :(

02/12/2013 07:36:00

Fight bitches fight !! :D A tug of war between two legends over an awesome map. That's how 2014 should start. What do ya think ?

02/12/2013 13:22:00

Now for me, this run have a special association with Paul.

02/12/2013 22:22:00

even with fail this run is nice and the edit as well ! gj both
