KirbyComment | 東方三月精 ~ Great Fairy Wars - Normal C2 62,438,840 (WR) @KirbyComment | Uploaded August 2024 | Updated October 2024, 1 day ago.
Route World Record: 13/08/2024
Since 2015 I had the thought running through my brain of scoring Great Fairy Wars as I really liked how the gameplay looked as I was watching chum's scoring attempts on stream, but I procrastinated for 9 years until I gave it a try. My C2 Normal TAS served as the determining factor whether Normal was as optimized as Lunatic and if it wasn't, I would try to score this category.
I spent nearly 100 hours practicing this route before doing runs over the course of two months, wherein most of that time I was working on the TAS while slowly practicing it's strategies in real time.
This run was pretty solid. There were three deaths on Stage 2, but I could compensate by this by skipping a suicide on Luna's first spell which doesn't lose any score. After that however I somehow managed to get enough motivation to where I only needed to skip one more suicide instead of two! Throughout the run there were quite a number of lucky freezes so even if I tried to improve this score, I wouldn't easily be able to top the freeze luck. Not to mention my Stage 3 had no unintentional deaths in it, which is really hard to match. On top of that my Stage 3 boss fight scored 100k more than my current best did!
Thanks are given to @Dai_karasu for the stage backgrounds.
