Transcripts
last week 18 competitors began their
Journey for runescape's biggest ever
prize pool starting at 15 billion GP it
will increase every single week as they
fight through the most intense
challenges and the fiercest
eliminations the game has ever seen but
in the end only one person can win
welcome to Gillan or games
[Music]
welcome back everyone to your second
Challenge on this season of Gillan or
games let's go
[Applause]
baby yeah coming into today we are down
to 17 players all of you passed the
first test make it past episode one well
done it's week two we know the format
last week I was one spot off the
tribunal I would't be making that
mistake again I want to be making it
there to the top table making the
decisions that's where the fun happens
for be not down with the rest of these
scrips last week we saw just how chaotic
things can get with the addition of the
Winner's tribunal and the twist of the
player selected to go into elimination
getting to choose their opponent we are
in for a wild season honestly this cast
feels so strong this season that even if
I was sent in by a tribunal and I could
pick my opponent I don't know if I'd
feel confident against anyone remaining
in this cast like absolutely anyone
everyone has Merit everyone has skill
and experience it's really just a tough
competition all around coming in the top
three is so huge because you get to pick
who goes into the Banning however they
then get to choose their opponent so
it's not the smartest to pick someone
that's good at the game because then
they can just pick someone that isn't
and come back the following week with
immunity it's also not the best to come
in the top three because you have to
publicly say who you want to vote for
which can definitely come back to buy
you in the ass today we have an odd
number of players so to keep it even we
are once again going to have a solo
challenge the first ever back-to-back
solo challenge week on GG there is a
different air going into this season I
mean last season my strategy was just
flying under the radar and crossing my
fingers hoping that I wasn't going to
get put in Bannings but this season
being in the Banning is just inevitable
I just have to wake up and try to play
my best this season is so different
politically I'm not doing massive
Alliance Group chats or anything like
that I'm reaching out to people
individually who are challenge winning
material they've been on gillo games
load of time settled evscape T Vester

a lofty goal of hitting
350,000 subscribers let's see if we can
hit it for today's challenge we'll be
heading to a place that we went to all
the way back in the first episode of the
first season of ganor games the chambers
of zerich well your challenge today is
called dodging
death the 17 of you will need to survive
as long as possible on the final phase
of the great m boss fight each of you
will be provided with the same gear and
inventory setup to help you stay alive
during the survival test M will attempt
to eliminate you with auto attacks
falling Crystal attacks healing pools
acid drips sphere attacks burn attacks
and more but that's not not all you'll
also need to survive against the
potential sabotage attempts from the
other players in the room you guys will
need to find ways to stay alive as long
as possible throughout certain parts of
the fight I'll be sending out Simon says
or as we say here on GG soup says tasks
you'll need to complete that task within
15 seconds if you don't you'll be
eliminated all chambers of zerich
related plugins must be turned off for
the challenge today's challenge will end
when only three players are left
standing in the room those three players
will win a spot in today's tribunal be
safe from elimination and get to vote on
who they want to send send into the
Banning this is not going to be easy but
for one of you it's going to be even
harder be the victim for winning the
Banning in the last episode you received
an amulet of choice when given the
option of receiving money partial
immunity or sabotage you chose the
sabotage option o I'm going to choose
sabotage
for just remember victim who didn't vote
for you in the tribunal M just remember
that this means you can choose one
player to sabotage for today's challenge
whoever you choose will have one Sarah
doen brew and one super aore stripped
from their inventory for the challenge
victim has the Amulet of sabotage in
season 3 there was a point where no one
wanted to say who was put in the Banning
and then I just go be the victim you're
going into the Banning no one wants to
be the bad guy be the victim you're
going into the fun him man let's go come
on good luck bro this season in my
tribuna we all decided to be the victim
because he was the winner at the
previous Galo games and I'm the first
person to be like be the victim you're
going into the Banning I was very very
confident I was going to be taking that
Amulet of sabotage today choose
carefully this decision not only impacts
the player during the challenge but also
could have big implications for the rest
of the game victim who will you be
sabotaging for today's challenge this
person their Alliance put me into
multiple Bannings last season they put
me into a Banning this season and if
anyone else puts me in you will be
sabotaged once I win it and come
back torvesta you have it this week
I knew I was going to sabotage torvesta
cuz not only do we have a little history
from the last season this season as well
he sent me into the first Banning I knew
that he was one of the ones driving that
vote with the sabotage you don't want to
make new enemies you want it as a show
of force hopefully everyone else sees
that and they go oh I shouldn't cross
him cuz I might get sabotaged and that's
the goal here torvesta you have been
chosen by victim to receive today's
sabotage you'll have less health and
less prayer to work with during the
challenge I guess guess I'll take it as
a compliment because one of the
strongest players in the games sees me
as a threat I guess that's the problem
like you want to win to be in the
tribunal but the problem is being in the
tribunal people know who you're going to
vote into the banon whoever gets voted
into the Bannon they're going to be like
what are you doing and they're going to
try and get you back and that's exactly
what's happening now I think it's safe
to say that today's challenge will be
full of chaos which honestly works out
pretty well because today's video is
brought to you by the author of the
songs of chaos book series Michael R
Miller a runes player himself Michael

doubt you'll love this series The Story

worlds forever together they'll need to
embrace their inner Daredevil to fight
off Undead threats and survive you can

about decision- making and being quick
with your clicks I hope you guys are
ready finally a pvm challenge this is my
bread and butter I'm feeling so
confident going into this I only got 1
minute of gameplay in last time and you
know surely I last a little bit longer
than that at least 2 minutes this week
right go ahead and gear up make your way
to the great Own Boss room and prepare
for absolute
[Music]
[Music]
chaos a super man ah honestly bro I'm
not very good at raids chambers of xeric
so difficult man little clicks
everywhere and I don't know man there's
just so much movement required and you
got to watch where by the heads look in
and watch for prayer to pray it's just
so much going on at once bro I'm kind of
worried about today anybody who's done a
lot of solo Chambers or even a lot of
Team Chambers knows that there are ways
to mitigate lots of damage in that room
almost all of those things go
immediately out the window if you have
16 or 17 other people all trying to
spite your efforts and just complete
chaos going around in the room in
general all right guys here we go I'm
expecting absolute chaos in there good
luck keep your health high and make sure
your clicks are on point when I say go
everyone can enter into the room and the
tank test will begin oh my God oh my God
oh my God all right bro I'm going to be
honest with you I don't even know what i
is if there's going to be a task that I
fail it is this
one I'm not even confident enough to be
talking about it okay I'm going to have
this in my chat box I feel like if I
have burn with me in my chat box people
won't want to touch me
three
2
one go oh oh come on get over here all
righty boys plan is
run and I've already taken 15 damage
I've already taken 37 he's staring at me
man well then yeah the odds are
certainly not in my favor already down a
brew and I'm the weakest link so it's
not looking good I need a miracle here
I'm just sort of like copying everyone
chambers of xeric I can't remember the
last time I did a raid as soon as I
heard m i was GOOG in osrs Alman looking
at his special attacks and all that I'm
already down so much damage this is just
not good as it oh my God there's so much
going on I think something a lot of
people are going to forget about are
rigger and augy these aren't just
offensive prayers both of them boost
your ranged and Magic defense by 25% and
the majority of our damage here is going
to be from M attacks another important
thing was to make sure you restore after
you brew because your magic level is
such a huge part of your magic defense
and when you brew you're basically
making yourself super vulnerable to
taking a 50 from a magic attack all
right let's go I'm just going to stay in
the middle for now oh sh I need to get
on those wow I completely forgot about
that it looks like I'm the only person
that has the strategy of sticking to the
middle I'm going to do okay if I stay
here I don't think staying on the sides
and and tanking every single Other M hit
is going to be the play cuz that's
what's going to happen I I noticed a lot
of people sticking to the back of the
room or to the sides of the room I think
they're just thinking like oh maybe less
crystals will fall here they're suckers
they're going to get hit constantly from
mad oh this sucks being on PING bro it's
just like nothing I can do coming into
the challenge on 400 ping why are we
doing this on a UK world I'm from
Australia can't we do it on the American
world that's right in the middle this
challenge was made for me and now it's
not this is ridiculous okay we need to
make sure that the head is not on on us
no on this pool on this pool a tank test
on the Final Phase of M anyone that's
done chames of Zer masses before knows
that this this is about to be messy
however I do back myself in a tank test
I have won both Bannings where I've been
in a tank test so I'm pretty confident
right now that I can hold my
nerve I realized that people would start
running the head but the problem when
you're running the head is that you're
going to get hit with multiple attacks
if the head is looking in the center
because it doesn't turn and I expected
that because we're not hitting the boss
to make it turn I just kind of camped in
the far back corner away from the boss
towards the loot chest in the first
minute or so I was really confident cuz
I was avoiding almost all the damage I
was hiding I was far away from everybody
what I wanted to do was stay in the back
of the room but sort of in the center so
that I can run to either side of the mm
head at any point really not many people
were in the back of the room and I could
run to either side of the mm head
whenever I wanted
[Music]
oh no I'm already taking damage um okay
the oh God I got acid really early on
and listen I wasn't intentionally trying
to sabotage anybody I had player
indicators off I was kind of just
worrying about myself but I mean there
was somebody standing there so I just
pathed over to them and walked under
them cuz I figured you know if they
stood in the acid for a little bit then
we're even you want to know something
funny I've always considered Zoe a
really good friend of mine and now she's
got me reliving the trauma of all my
learner rids never talk to me again Zoe
bro I'm not very good at the Al I'm
going be honest but I'm just going to
hope for the best and I'm poisoned
already don't get hit by somebody else's
I don't know if I should have Aug on at
the moment I feel like I'm wasting
[Music]
prayer I'm thinking okay with all these
people I think the best thing that I can
do is just try to kind of stick towards
the middle and run back and forth and
not be on the side that the head is
looking at that way I'm not going to be
taking any
Autos okay brilliant oh I took a
hit okay The Middle's the spot wherever
I was going oh get on this side
yes okay the teams running the head all
right simply stay in the middle now oh
