Hello speedrunning and community map enthusiasts,

Since the ingame speedrunning rankings only track official campaign maps and rPvE map of the month, @Emmaerzeh and I decided to create a forum post to track the speedrunning records for community maps as well. Since there are a lot of community maps out there, of which some are not suited for speedrunning or have other issues, we picked a few maps which we deemed worthy of a ranking. This list might be expanded in the future.

Have fun speedrunning! 🙂

How to get your time listed

In order to get your time listed in the rankings, you first have to make sure that your run follows all the rules (see below). In order to get your time verified, you have to send a replay of the run to me either via Discord (Metagross31#1103) or via DM in the forums (@Metagross31). I will not share any replays for the rankings without explicit permission of the runners.
You may also feel free to also post your times publicly as responses to this post to share them with everyone else. However, the rankings will only be updated once I verified that the time is legit.

Rules

1. Every run for the rankings has to be performed on expert difficulty.
2. Whenever there are multiple versions of a map available, you have to use the one that explicitly matches the name in the rankings.
3. If the version of a map is updated, the rankings for that map might be reset.
4. There are no restrictions on deck building and gameplay, other than those employed by the maps themselves.
5. If a replay is not watchable or desyncs when watched on the same patch the run was performed on, the replay is not valid.
6. Any modifications to maps or replay files are strictly prohibited.

So you are saying I could be number 1 for a very sort time probably, cause if I'm the first one to submit, I am 1st right?

Indeed! Maybe you will even stay at rank 1 for some while 🙂

That Nyxia map looks very interesting, I'll put that as my first target 😄

I just verified your run.

Congratulations to the first record on this list! 🙂

13.12.1 for Nyxia

Two new records:
Nyxia in 13:08.8 by Emmaerzeh

and

Icedessert in 12:41.8 by me.

Since I can't really verify my own record, I will just share my replay, so you can verify my time 🙂

i want to get a extra achievement registered. 

In Nyxia in 13:08.8 by Emmaerzeh there were maulers involved.^^

@The WaterMelon Lord

Icedessert 11:29.2

Icedessert in 9:56.8 by me


Also:
Nyxia in 11:10.9 by RadicalX

 

 

Simple Land 1 in 23:47.8 by Metagross31 and ghostsree

Btw, we just added a few more singleplayer maps to the rankings, since those seem to be the most popular ones.

 

City of Tears in 14:40.0 by me

Nyxia 10:31

Btw, if in some of the listed maps its not clear what the winconditions are for a specific map,  feel free to ask. 

F. E.  In "Warrior on the Mountain"  everything after u killed the cages is irrelevant for the time. You just need to hold out.  And not even need to kill the Boss. 

Kind regards

I think you mean "Warrior on the Mountain". In City of Tears you do need to clear the boss.

Thx for the correction. 

I couldnt doublecheck it atm. 

City of Tears in 9:54.4 by Donnar, 10:36.7 by me and in 13:25.0 by Emmaerzeh.

 

Army of Darkness in 27:07.9 by me (solo). This run can easily be beaten with probably any 2player composition. Especially since I wasted a lot of time in the beginning.

nyxia 9:58

 

I really like the idea of a similar ranking!

 

That said, Nyxia 6.12 😄

Btw, if someone is interested I can write a small guide on the map (or on any other community map that I try) where I also explain a bit the strategy development process that lies behind a run.

 

See you in the Forge,

Donaar

The first 4p run is here:
Twisted Legends in 28:59.5 by Talgat, Kapo and me.

That was a really fun map with surprises 😃

Hey all,
due to the recent balance patch, which makes some runs not achievable anymore, the rankings have been reset. The old rankings have been archived in this thread.
Please, check if the archived rankings are in fact correct.

 

I also have the first new record to announce:
The Conquest in 21:22.6 by Kapo and Metagross31

Finally some new activity after 5.5 years:

New first places in Army of Darkness and The Conquest by KampfkeksBOSS and Lord_of_Bread, and new second places in Icedessert and Rogan's Treasure by KampfkeksBOSS.
