If that's "20 minutes from start of game to end", that's pretty good going. Get him a YouTube channel and get him grinding towards the World Record!
Last year, his class at school (he was 12-13) had their own server where they built lots of stuff. At some point, they divided into two teams. His team was the largest, which he found unfair, so he switched to the smaller team. Then both teams secretly decided to gang up on him, which they did when he wasn't prepared. 20 kids, against him on his own, without his armor on. He had an enchanted golden apple ready, quickly put on his netherite gear, and went to town. Beat them all.
As part of a special projects week the school organised not just a regular sports day, but also an e-sports day. 7 events. He won 6 of them, including one game he'd never played, and got silver on the one game he didn't win.
He's ridiculously good, that much is clear to me now. I'll let him know the internet says he should get a Youtube channel. He doesn't talk much, though, and I think that's kinda necessary for a youtube channel.
14 minutes would be top 400 of the "random seed glitchless" category. Which is pretty good since there's 3600+ (distinct) runs on that leaderboard.

I would agree.

I dunno - I follow a few Minecraft channels who don't talk and use subtitles instead. Fits with the general "chill" aesthetic (although I appreciate speedruns are anything but chill.)
He also claims to have beaten Civ 6 at Deity level, admittedly by following strategies he learned in Youtube, which is frustrating to me because I'm struggling on Immortal figuring stuff out on my own. At least I can still beat him in chess.
