ExarionU - Exarion is a mastermind in the world of Pokémon and Yu-Gi-Oh! speedrunning. Currently, Exarion is working on ironMON runs, mainly with "skill ironMON".
Tenka - Tenka is a very well-known speedrunner and moderator in the Mortal Kombat speedrunning kommunity. He speedruns a lot of Mortal Kombat arcade titles, as well as Mortal Kombat Trilogy. He also speedruns a variety of retro-related titles too. Also, never stop running.
gui93plays - Gui uses this channel as an alternative for Forbidden Memories-related speedruns. You may normally see Gui either do 15-card runs, or do 15x15 hundo speedruns. Either way, it's very chill and worth a watch.
windssunrise1 - Winds is one of the few original streamers that supported my channel from when I first started Forbidden Memories speedrunning. Winds has been speedrunning FM for a long time and is a big influence on Vanilla speedrunning for that game. He also does RetroAchievements in-between speedrunning.
Canal BySpeed - While Speed is primarily a Portugese-speaking streamer, he is a monster at Mortal Kombat speedrunning and a person I not only consider a rival, but a speedrunner that I watch as motivation to improve my craft in speedrunning. He also has a YouTube channel with over 346k subscribers, which I will link here.
The animated POP emote that you are seeing was drawn and created by my artist SlappyMeats so I want to personally credit them for their work and thank them for making this emote possible. :)
