Streamer beats Hades using an actual pomegranateI’m already squirming thinking about how sticky it must’ve been
I’m already squirming thinking about how sticky it must’ve been

In ancient greek mythology, eating a pomegranate in the underworld would trap you there. InHades, eating poms gives the main character Zagreus an upgrade to one of his skills. In real life, people don’t eat pomegranates, apparently - they just wire them up and turn them into very sticky controllers instead. At least that’s what streamer Dylan “Rudeism” Beck did anyway. He managed to beat Hades with a chopped-up pom, and my god was it messy.
What’s happening on screen in the video below is a weird contrast to the camera on his pomegranate-tapping hands. Zagreus is zipping about all over the place while Rudeism seems to be dancing his fingers very methodically across the poms.

I’m all for finding new and creative ways to play Hades, it’s an incredible roguelike that tops the list ofour favourite games from 2020, though I don’t love the idea of being covered in pomegranate juice while attempting a run.
It’s probably best to leave the food-related controller-ing to the professionals anyways. Rudeism has previouslybeaten Fall Guys using jellybeansandplayed PUBG with a frying pan, a true controller connoisseur.
