Low Heat (Video Game)

"Your mom... ...is now MINE!!!!!!" ~Low Heat, cutscene 14.Low Heat (Louw-heA-tu) is a video game character from the 2018 hit RPG series Ur Mum, created by EpiGames Inc. In the story, Low Heat serves as the overarching major antagonist of the entire series, and has spawned off many numerous merchandise and spinoff stories. On September 24, 2019, Low Heat was added to Super Smash Bros, with a wallclip glitch that caused many gamers all over the world to cry foul, stating that lackluster care in Low Heat's programming made him "the most broken teenager in the world." Despite much criticism, Low Heat remains the most broken character in the game.
== Lore ==
In the 2018 RPG Ur Mum, Low Heat initially remained a silent character, often shadowed within depicted. He was first mentioned within the prologue, and made his first vocal appearance in Chapter 2, Stage 3.
Low Heat officially made his first shadowed visual appearance in Chapter 5, Stage 7, and his complete visual appearance in Chapter 6, Stage 9. In his first cutscene, Low Heat immediately appears after the deuterogonist dies, and procedes to disable half of the movement controls and attack functions. In his first attack, Low Heat deals approximately 1990 DMG per hit. His attack patterns includes a T-Pose attack mode, where he inflicts the Immobile debuff, and procedes to dominate your character. In his second phrase, Low Heat unleashes a verbal barrage of "Your Mom" jokes that can inflict the Depression debuff, if your character's intelligience is below 85 IQ, or if your character is an orphan.
After the battle, Low Heat, sensing that momentum is not on his side, procedes to sneeze on the protagonist and force the entire country into quarantine. This causes the storyline to transition into Chapter 7, forcing the protagonist to go on a journey to Low Heat's house in order to defeat him. 
After this, Low Heat procedes to make only a sparingly number of appearances in the game leading up to the final battle, appearing occasionally to order his endless supply of goons, stans, and simps to harrass the player. The player will often spend a of their time battling Low Heat's many minions, committing one of the worst genocides in all of history.
Once the protagonist reaches Low Heat's home, the final cutscene will initiate, with the player trying to reason with Low Heats insanity using logic, reason, and calculus. However, because this is Low Heat, they immediately fail. During phase 1, Low Heat enters T-pose mode, proceeding to dominate the playing field with his lack of masculinity. After his HP reaches 60%, Low Heat enteres phase 2, and enters the "ur mum" phase, utilizing disparaging your mom jokes to cripple the player with PTSD, anxiety, and depression.
When Low Heat's HP reaches 10%, Low Heat enters the High Heat phase, increasing his attack DMG by 690%. During this phase, High Heat often moves around the map, trying to T-pose the main character out of existance. The only way to defeat High Heat in this phase is to insult his mother, which will instantly defeat High Heat and render him immobile for the rest of his life.
Low Heat makes his final cannonical appearance in the credits, where he is being sentenced for all of his intentional war crimes.
The developers have often hinted that Low Heat's character arc is an allegory describing the journey to triumph over difficulty: when in the face of challenge and difficulty, even if your friendships fail against your opponents, remember that violence is always an option.
== Walkthrough ==
In Ur Mum, Low Heat has two boss battles with increasing difficulty. This walkthrough guide will teach you how to defeat Low Heat so that his jokes will never make you cry in the shower ever again.
One of the things to remember about Low Heat is that his greatest weakness is intelligient comebacks. Many of Low Heat's jokes are that of low caliber, and many speedrunners often recommend building your intelligience stat to that of 80 IQ, which makes your character smart enough to know that Low Heat's roasts aren't.
Low Heat's second weakness is water. Many people have theorized that Low Heat is allergic to water, due to the fact that he is already surrounded by fire. At a press conference in July 19, 2014, the developers confirmed that Low Heat is weak to H2O, even stating:"Everyone knows that DiHydrogen Monoxide is one of the greatest dangers in the world. Literally everyone who has consumed it has died. I personally saw like, 13 people die from it yesterday out on the street."In Low Heat's first fight, the key is to strafe Low Heat and snipe him from behind. It is critical to evade, or else you'll have to listen to his insults until the MVC bell rings. In the second run, there is an i-frame moment when Low Heat uses his scream attack, where you can wallclip through Low Heat's left hand. This will cause Low Heat to glitch into the void, causing the game to instakill him.
In Low heat's second fight, the best counter to Low Heat's T-pose attack is to T-pose back. The two dominant assertion attacks will cancel each other out, giving you the opportunity to wallclip Low Heat into oblivion. When Low Heat enters High Heat phase, immediately splash him with water. This will cause him to have Vietnam war flashbacks of Mr. Gonzales swimming unit, which will cause him to exit the battlefield and go home.
== Speedrunning Low Heat ==
The current speedrunning world record for Ur Mum is 13 seconds. The secret to speedrunning is to immediately glitch into Low Heat's battle arena, triggering the fighting cutscene and the battle. If the player is able to gltich into both battle arenas and defeat Low Heat, the ending cutscene will easily play. The speedrunning steps are:
# Immediately press "x" on the keyboard to skip the tutorial
# Go to the left corridor of the tutorial building, where you can find 3 crates next to a voltage wire and plumbing pipe. Position your character next to one of the crates and pipe, and press "s" to duck repeatedly. Continue doing so until your character clips through the wall.
# Once you're outside the map, head 139 meters to the east and 12 meters to the north. Once you do so, you should be able to see Low Heat's hitboxes.
# Take the starter MVC bow, and aim for Low Heat's $3k Yeezys. This will result in Low Heat falling outside of the map, causing the game to flag that the first boss has been defeated.
# Once the game teleports you to the save point at the beginning of Chapter 8, go to the western wall and wallclip through the vines.
# Head 19 meters to the west, and hit Low Heat's shoes with the MVC bow again. This will cause Low Heat to fall outside of the world again, causing the game to flag your victory and play the credits.
Once Low Heat is defeated, make sure you turn off your volume so you can't hear him bullying your mom. If you don't do this step, you may end up getting orphaned, or even worse, adopted by him.
