Did this stage on a whim because its super short, but picking out some of the tricks ended up making it really interesting. This game is still really new and I have no doubt this will eventually get beaten, but I was pretty happy with it so I decided to upload it.
My jump at the end on the train was a bit slow, but most of the rest of the run was pretty good. The setup for the lava boat skip took a little bit of time, and Im sure theres a better way to do it anyway. I imagine another 2 seconds can come off the time just in this route, but breaking the 1:30 could be possible with a few more improvements I havent thought of.")

An improved Free mode run for the hell of it. A definite improvement over the first one, but theres still another 10-15 seconds that can come off from cleaning up Stage 4 and 5 Watch live at https://www.twitch.tv/omnigamer")

I dont know why this happened, but Im preserving it in case it has some clues for figuring it out. Watch live at https://www.twitch.tv/omnigamer")

A new PB 8 years later! This is a so-so run, but shows evidence of the new strats and mechanics I recently looked into. Theres a huge luck component to runs, but Ill see how much further I want to drive this down. For now, target is 18:3x.

![[PSN] Suikoden II Speedrun - 6:25:50](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/OIDysthY2Fw/hqdefault.jpg "[PSN] Suikoden II Speedrun - 6:25:50
My new run/route of Suikoden II. Some awful luck throughout the whole run, even at the beginning where I have to reload a save to get through Mist Monster. Long story short, the run is still very improvable. The new route is pretty solid though, with just a few minor tweaks to work out yet. Look for better runs soon.

A re-do of my Mission 2 speedrun. Can still be improved by a fair bit, but I at least cut out some of the slop from the prior one. Turns out you can just barrel right through the lasers in the first area if you have mostly full HP, no nurse bot setup required.")
![[SNES] Metal Warriors - Final Boss Speedrun Strat](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/OYX0JSIdFlc/hqdefault.jpg "[SNES] Metal Warriors - Final Boss Speedrun Strat
A non-optimal final boss fight, but it gets the main things right:
-Proper setup for phase 1
-Phase 2-4 go well enough
-Correct manipulation of boss and bits for final few phases
Some finicky parts to it, but this is the strategy I will use during speedrun attempts. It should save a fair chunk of time over past strategies. Theres a nasty glitch where occasionally the bosss human form will not appear after the battle, but Im still working on figuring that out.")

This run is something of a work-in-progress; its meant to show the general path, but several things still need to be worked out, particularly stage 3. A completed run is probably around 20 seconds faster.")
