Welcome back to Two Sixteen, A Link to the Past Randomizer Podcast. I am your un-host, Laoria, here with my boys, Jesse and Kaesden, the rest of JKLoL for... I don't know if this will be the last JKLoL takeover, but it is the last one of the regular season of League. We made it. We made it through, guys.

**Jesse** (0:39)
We made it through the regular season, you're right. That's what you meant, right? Yes, we survived.

**Kaesden** (0:43)
We recorded every week. Yep.

**Laoria** (0:45)
Oh, yeah. Sorry for your...

**Jesse** (0:48)
We talked about a lot of Zelda stuff.

**Laoria** (0:50)
We did. It's been really, really fun to do these. I just wish my own schedule wasn't such ass, honestly.

**Jesse** (0:59)
I'm not sure, just taking the blame and not leaving it up to us as well and that.

**Laoria** (1:03)
I will 100% take the blame. Like, I know that, yeah, it's a team we're all guilty.

**Jesse** (1:09)
It's fine.

**Laoria** (1:10)
I will very much take the blame as far as trying to get us to cooperate as far as recording, because my schedule is the most restricted out of all of ours. So, but yeah, no, I kind of thinking about it, like we have three weeks to talk about.

**Jesse** (1:30)
Yes, we do.

**Laoria** (1:30)
So, shall we just hop on in and kind of reverse time for a second and go back to week five? Good old co-op cross keys.

**Jesse** (1:40)
Well, I'm going to say, here's the funny part is Kaesden gets to practically do nothing for two weeks in the discussion with this one.

**Laoria** (1:48)
He's just going to sit there.

**Kaesden** (1:49)
I mean, I could be here. I just didn't play.

**Jesse** (1:52)
No, I'm not saying leave, you know.

**Kaesden** (1:56)
I'm going to go play Satisfactory. I'll be back in what, 20, 30 minutes.

**Jesse** (2:00)
Sure. Have fun. Say hello to Vax.

**Laoria** (2:04)
Yeah, exactly. Yeah, no, Kaesden literally with just the, like, participation trophy of weeks five and six.

**Kaesden** (2:12)
Get a participation trophy for not even, like...

**Jesse** (2:15)
You were great moral support.

**Laoria** (2:17)
Yeah.

**Kaesden** (2:17)
Moral support. Yeah, there you go.

**Laoria** (2:19)
Yeah, you help support us. You brought me drinks when I needed it. I don't know that I asked for that at all, but yeah, no. So moving right along from there. So week five, Co-op Crosskeys versus Tile Roomies. It was Jesse and I double up versus Walsh and Kappa double up. And oh, boy, was that an exciting week.

**Jesse** (2:43)
I mean, talk about two close races. Just like first race, we went into that week saying, we want bad. We want bad seeds. We were just like, if we can get like the worst seeds possible against these guys, we can, you know, we'll be efficient and we'll route it and make good choices that will lead to victory. And then seed one was just the anti.

**Laoria** (3:07)
It was so jet. It was terrifying. I don't remember the exact average difference, but I feel like it was within like it was within two minutes.

**Jesse** (3:19)
Maybe just looking at that week five, like I was a 11440 You were 11520 Walsh was a 115 flat. And so like you were only 20 seconds behind Walsh. I was 20 seconds ahead of Walsh. But then it was Kappa was 1655 So like over a minute and a half behind you to give us that win. So, yeah, yeah, like averages within just about a minute.

**Laoria** (3:42)
Yeah, I was going to say, like, I think it's like 40 to 50 seconds or something like that. But yeah, no, we I think we went into the week really hoping for a split. Yes. Knowing that it was going to be hard as hell to get it. But we won game one with the freaking jettiest cross keys. Again, that whole seed was absolutely terrifying, but we made it work. And then there was game two.

**Jesse** (4:12)
Yeah. And I must say that was probably the most fun of a race and just the whirlwind of emotion. So if you missed it, I think I hope the VOD is still there. I know that with the Twitch bullshit right now, like, I don't know what's there highlight wise.

**Laoria** (4:33)
I said be real. Yeah, it's absolute bullshit.

**Jesse** (4:37)
Yeah, like a 100-hour time limit for highlights. But like, so, you know, hopefully it's there and people can watch it. But if you missed it, talk about Kappa just absolutely jetting the seed 13638 And we see that and we're like, well, we'll do what we can. I think we were in go at the time.
