HermitCraft S9#21: Decked Out - Phase 8: Tryhard Mode

Pulling out the dual wield netherite hoe on Scar was hilarious

Post commentary etho is such a rare treat, I do like this style of episode tbh.

I'm just imagining Etho, pallid and frail from battling his cold, mustering up the last of his strength to make this video essay on why he hates the level 2 pillar with a bulleted list of every reason why it sucks

I like to imagine if we didn't have post-commentary, we'd just have Etho sniffing and sneezing like a warden for extra ambience

This is basically a Decked Out podcast hosted by Etho. I love it.

Etho being surprised by Etho's greed was amazing 😂

Etho: "Get your snacks!" Etho in Decked Out: "Get your berries!" I really enjoyed this style episode. I'd love to see Phase 9 presented this way.

21:52 Even while ill and silent, Etho is still the master of comedy

The Scar vs. Etho Hoe-down was hilarious. When you brought out 2 hoes, and Scar was flabbergasted, lol

Since you asked for feedback, this episode was amazing. I do quite enjoy this style of post commentary, some play by play comments on what you are doing or thinking and some rambling about decked out and whatever else. No issues whatsoever if you do this again for next episode. Regarding questions about Decked Out 2, I was wondering what your personal favorite things about both Decked Out 1 and Decked Out 2 were, and what changes from 1 to 2 you liked the most.

i love when he forget what he was doing in the runs and the commentary is him questioning himself what he was doing 😂 1:17:10

Etho being the DO champion AND the TCG champion is probably his biggest flex

When Etho finally posts!!! We're so glad you're back and feeling better!!

Etho explaining how treasure is basically Hazard/clank block and embers was mind boggling to me! I knew treasure was great, but he put into perspective how OP it really is.

Can we just give this man a hand for doing this even when he is sick.

I would love to see a video of etho getting a tour of the decked out redstone, It would be interesting to hear what sort of questions he asks

You know… this previous phase our champion took quite the beating. Many proclaimed him as “washed up”. Some humorously, others serious. Some radical thinkers began idolizing a new rising star, the dungeoneer Cubfan. Proclaiming HIM to be the future champion of this dungeon. A time of turmoil and chaos amongst the populace. Discussions were widespread, and plenty of rumors circulated. Yet, deep in a Canadian forest, tucked away in a small cabin lashed and crackling with ice and snow. A pleased Etho smiled. As he entered the dungeon for this new phase, he counted his deck of cards, he learned a lot from these previous phases. But that doesn’t matter now, it’s the final sprint before the dungeon crumbles for good. There’s no more time left for experimentation and exploring. As he raises his head in focus, eyes locked at the aging dungeon door, frozen shard cracking to pieces from the grip of his hand, The Champion of this dungeon proclaimed: “let the game truly begin.”

It's really nice that Scar was there between runs. I don't know if he was doing it because Etho was very sick at the time, but I really appreciate him being there to goof around like that.

Idk about everyone else but the main thing i liked about DO was a chance to listen to Etho (and other hermits) thought proccess like a peak behind the curtins so this commentary hits that on the head.

11:55 It's so easy to see even with silent Etho how excited he was for nailing that jump :D
