Throwback Throwdown - 3:16.00
0:38 - On the first hit against King Kaliente, it can save 1 or 2 frames if you stand a bit farther away from him than as close as possible. If you stand farther away, the coconut takes a straight path from Luigi to Kaliente, whereas if you stand too close, the coconut veers to the left or right.
0:55 - On the last phase against Kaliente, you can either jump as close to him as possible to get 3 quick hits and then lava hop to the Launch Star, or you can stay closer to land to avoid the lava. Avoiding the lava seems to be about 0.2~0.3 seconds faster.
1:09 - Major Burrows is the first random part of the run. When Major Burrows emerges from the ground at the beginning can vary by a few seconds. In the 2nd and 3rd phases, where Major Burrows appears is random, and he can spawn either right next to Luigi or on the other side of the planet. I got extremely good luck here.
1:48 - It's random when the Bomb Boos appear during Bouldergeist's rock throwing attacks. Ideally, 2 Bomb Boos will appear during the first volley, but sometimes only 1 Bomb Boo will appear.
2:15 - You can prevent a Bomb Boo from moving around by entering first-person view and looking away. In the 2nd half of the fight, this can prevent Bouldergeist from crushing a Bomb Boo when it smashes the ground with its hands, even if a Bomb Boo is underneath.
3:44 - Green Star 1 - 1:06.66
4:49 - The long-jump towards the Star could've been aimed better, but it took me a lot longer than I would've liked to get the land-cancel on the Major Burrows planet, so I settled for this. The game doesn't allow first-person view on this planet, and I thought the run was short enough to go for a jump cancel.
5:17 - Green Star 2 - 1:47.71
This run was my first attempt :p
7:05 - When grabbing the Star, it looks like doing an instant ground-pound is about 0.1 seconds slower than just falling onto the Star.
7:32 - Throwback Throwdown Speed Run - 3:19.23
The Comet Star is exactly the same as the main Star, and a 3.23 second difference might seem like a lot, but the difference is mostly due to better luck on Major Burrows. Since I did the Comet Star first, I didn't think revisiting it was worthwhile.
