師匠救出アリ。ミスが多かっただけに自分でもビックリのタイム。残念ながら正式な記録として申請は出来ませんが、これはこれで良かった。というのも。。。
今回自分が採用しているチャートは、弾薬5/15/5及びボス順PRKDという難しめのチャート。仮にこのチャートで世界記録を更新してしまうと、新規でカテゴリーに参入する走者が減ってしまわないかと、長らく危惧していました。さらに、Low％Speedの醍醐味でもある激ムズのリドリー戦が、何ならLow％Iceより簡単になってしまうのも、カテゴリーの魅力を損なってしまう懸念も。そのため、海外勢には「世界記録を更新してしまった場合、多分SRCには申請しないかも」と、事前に告げていました。このような形で半ば強制的に申請不可になってしまったのは、ある意味幸いだったのかもしれません。
チャートを伝授して下さったハイポさん、蛍火さん、zoast氏、antimatterhorse氏、stashiocat氏、そして革命的な技を考案したEternisedDragon氏に、超絶感謝。

Animals saved. I was most surprised by this time, given how rough the late game went. Unfortunately this run cannot be submitted as an official record, but this was also a serendipity in some ways...
I have long been conflicted regarding whether to use the 5/15/5 ammo route for Low% Speed. Hero_82 and I have a long-standing discussion about the validity of the route, with Hero opposing it and me defending it. I never doubted the competitiveness of the route, but was always afraid that if a trick like moat hibj emerges in a World Record run, it would drive away new comers to the category. This was based on my experience with Max% GT Code, where top-level runners were reluctant to join the competition back when moat hibj was the "standard fastest route", but decided to hop on only after the 0-tank dive was discovered. Secondly, 5/15/5 makes the Ridley fight almost easier than the low% ice fight, which may detract from the "key challenge" of the category that is, the prolonged Ridley fight. For these reasons, I told a few runners beforehand that "If I ever set a strong World Record with this route, I probably won't submit it to SRC, and just keep it as part of my journey". This run accomplished exactly what I aimed to reach, which is to prove the validity of the 5/15/5 route and showcase the many improvements/new strats developed in the last two years (except most of them cannot be seen...), and coincidentally is not eligible for leaderboard submission. It could be a fitting end for the 3 months of fun that I had.
Huge shoutouts to:
Hypo and Hotarubi, for showing the bomb-less Ridley fights, and for developing the speed-baby skip
zoast, for his run that showed many strats to learn from and develop on
antimatterhorse, for the many discussions about pre-Ridley farming strat as well as WRITG
stashiocat, for helping me with WRITG, general Ridley knowledge, and the 3-PB kago-farm strat
EternisedDragon, for proposing the revolutionary kago-farming strat, saving more than 20 seconds in this run

immense improvement over the previous route/strats. Congrats again on WR! G_G

Thank you so much, antimatterhorse! This couldn't have happened without your help.
In reflection, the fact this footage captures none of the big end-game strats is hugely disappointing 😫This run was 24 seconds behind the WR leaving Red Brinstar, and managed to be 70 seconds ahead by parlor escape, from the 5-PB kago farm, baby cutscene-skip, and 5/15/5 Tourian (yes, all the big names), and we can see none of that.
I must run this category again! 🌌🌌

www.twitch.tv/videos/46545689 This is also a thing but seems like it's slower than your method. If you could do double bombjumps it would save a ton of time.

[@roland3264]

Hi Sniq. I personally can't perform the ceiling bomb jump, but thankfully for moat I'm confident hibj is faster (for bowling, the cibj seems much faster, since hibj is more prone to error). I am aware of the double bomb jumps, the fastest crossing I've done is about 25 seconds (czcams.com/video/x5pcrK-XkPg/video.html). But I was never super consistent with the dbj's, since you need to keep the hibj's quite low in order to not bonk the ceiling. I eventually concluded that, for low% speed, it's a better idea to get as many runs to Tourian as possible, so decided to remove the dbj's (or anything inconsistent) altogether. For the Max% GT-Code run however, I used to attempt the dbj's in moat, since it was the only reset-heavy spot.
