In a stunning turn of events in the Minecraft speedrunning community, popular streamer Forsen (Sebastian Fors) has set a new record with an astonishing time of 18 minutes and 10 seconds. The record-breaking run on March 23, 2023, has not only solidified Forsen’s status as a formidable speedrunner but has also sparked controversy as accusations of cheating, led by xQc (Félix Lengyel), swirl around the use of a Minecraft resource pack that introduces a new language.
Forsen’s remarkable achievement, beating his own previous record and surpassing xQc’s best time, has sent shockwaves through the gaming community. Fans and fellow streamers alike have been quick to congratulate Forsen on his exceptional performance, praising his skill, precision, and dedication to mastering the intricacies of Minecraft speedrunning.
However, amid the celebrations, a cloud of suspicion has emerged as xQc publicly expressed skepticism about Forsen’s record-breaking run. The controversy centers around Forsen’s use of a Minecraft resource pack that introduces a new language, raising concerns about whether this modification provided an unfair advantage or altered the game’s mechanics in a way that impacted the speedrun.
“Altered drop rates” claims xQc
xQc, known for his competitive spirit and outspoken nature, took to his own stream to voice these suspicions.
“My run is legitimate. His run isn’t. Literally.”
He questioned the legitimacy of Forsen’s record, suggesting that the resource pack may have played a role in achieving such an unprecedented time. As of now, Forsen has not responded to these accusations, leaving the gaming community in suspense and awaiting an official statement.
The controversy has ignited discussions on forums, social media platforms, and within the Twitch community. Fans are divided on the matter, with some defending Forsen’s right to use resource packs as part of his speedrunning strategy, while others echo xQc’s concerns about the potential influence of the language-altering pack on the legitimacy of the record.

The debate surrounding the use of mods, resource packs, and other modifications highlights the need for clear guidelines and standards within the speedrunning community to ensure fair competition and maintain the integrity of record-breaking achievements.
