ROTW #130 - KeltA on kz_a2_godspeed

By Ovidiu Dumitru·
Welcome to the 130th edition of the Run Of The Week!
Featuring: KeltA
Map: kz_a2_godspeed
Realtime: 05:05.58 (-00:00.54)
Moviemaker: ViDtam
Previous holder: puppetz

It's been almost two years since his last appearance in a ROTW, and a comeback like this calls for a grand scale entrance. Having just beaten a demo over five years old, this run definitely qualifies. The player in question, KeltA, has managed to beat puppetz on the ancient creation of kz map heavy weights; Kreedz, Shizuka & SadPuppy; kz_a2_godspeed.

Let's see what KeltA had to say about his recent run:

Sorry to jump right into it, but I think everyone is curious to know where you have been? You've been rather inactive as of recent in regard to WRs. What made you come back?

When I lost my job I had so much free time that I found interest in kz again (but I guess I already lost it) so I did some WRs for fun :)

Sorry to hear about your job. Hopefully you will find a new one soon enough. Moving forth, so yes, hello KeltA! Welcome back. Even though it may be a brief appearance, I know everyone is glad to see you, since you're a rather popular and highly regarded as a player. How are you dealing with being back?

Yeah. I'm trying to find one! Well I don't know, that's a hard question. I find it funny that I'm kind of famous in the kreedz world, but yeah...

So no future plans for more WRs? Maybe stay around a while longer? Have fun, relax with some kz after work then return to your daily activities. Maybe a release spree like you used to do?

Well, I generally record if I find good maps. Time by time. It's impossible to say what I'm planning to do in the future regarding kz.

And how did you come up with the idea of recording on kz_a2_godspeed? Being that it's not the most popular map and has only had 4 recorders throughout it's time. What sparked your interest in it?

I was trying to find an old WR because they are pretty easy to beat. So I found this map and to be honest it was not easy. I tried it for a pretty long time. Before I went to the army I started trying, and only after the army did I manage to finally beat it.

Yeah, puppetz really was one hell of a player back in his days. Well this is it KeltA. Thanks for your time and hopefully we will still see you around more often. Good luck!

Yeah, I miss puppetz' smoooth strafes. Okay thanks to you too. And we will see :)!

And as far as the edit goes, I knew it was going to rock, but man, I didn't expect it to be this good. ViDtam has really out-done himself. The atmosphere is just... perfect.

This ROTW covers the WR Release #646.

Very nice clip and music there.But did i miss something or what the hell.How could possibly puppetz's run be soo good.I mean all those bhop combos and speedy climb and only half a second faster than a 5 year old demo.Did puppetz have steel balls or i missed smth

06/02/2014 20:43:00

07/02/2014 09:18:00

sweet song choice. solid run. get rid off the tabscore next time

07/02/2014 10:35:00

In my opinion from the last release rotw deserve (g-Lp) with his kz_j2s_summercliff_h 02:13.44 or (pizza^) with clintmo_pentablock in 03:46.27, also my lovely player puppetz lost his incredible run since 2009. Good job to KeltA anyways... impressive skills like always :)

07/02/2014 10:56:00

KeltA top 1 anno 2016!!

Gratz, good job =)

Glad to see SadPuppy is still somewhere around. Hello there. I was always charmed by confident, smooth and calm strafes of puppetz. Tried to find his kz_a2_godspeed run on youtube and got no results. May I ask some kind movie-making person to render a run-movie or even battle-movie? It's quite interesting to compare those 5 years old retro run and contemporary style run considering the fact that time improvement is insignificant.
