Forsen’s latest Minecraft speedrunning session delivered peak speedrun tragedy: a god seed squandered by forgetting to eat.
The Swedish streamer encountered what the speedrunning community calls a god seed during a recent stream. In the Nether dimension, a bastion remnant spawned directly next to a fortress structure. This rare layout is speedrunning gold because it puts both critical resources in one location. Runners need blaze rods from fortresses and ender pearls from bastion piglin bartering to reach the End and complete the game.
Finding these structures next to each other eliminates minutes of dangerous Nether navigation and bridge building. Forsen reached this premium setup around six minutes into his run.
The sequence that followed was equal parts impressive and baffling. Forsen took a dangerous fall but executed a clean boat clutch, placing a boat at the last second to cancel fall damage. The high-risk maneuver worked perfectly.
Then the run collapsed anyway.
Despite surviving the fall, Forsen died shortly after without ever eating the bread in his inventory. Food restores hunger in Minecraft, which enables health regeneration and keeps runners alive through combat and environmental damage. He had 22 bread available but never consumed any of it.
Will he ever beat the new record?
This isn’t a new problem. Viewers have nicknamed Forsen’s habit of refusing to eat during runs the “ramadan run” because he effectively fasts through Minecraft even when food is plentiful. The community sees it as a recurring execution error that has cost him multiple strong seeds.
The timing stings extra because xQc recently beat Forsen’s long-standing personal best. Forsen’s benchmark time sits at 15:28 while xQc posted a 14:27. The rivalry between the two streamers has kept both pushing attempts.
