Rayman 2 (PC) - Any% Speedrun in 1:59:16
updated
I've found the new fastest softlock in this game, I guess.
I've accidentially found a way to never consume your crossbow bolts.
Trying to complete this game with as low damage as possible (it didn't go perfect).
Trying to complete the game with minimal damage taken to enemies.

The skip was found by our R2 scientist: CoCo.
For those who dislike looking at unnecessary pirates in the game.
If you enter the Forest IV level from the Torras IV, and frame-perfecty do a long jump at very beginning, you can jump through the drawbridge and simply skip the fight.
Special thanks to the user Ananas23, who informed me about another glitch in that place - making me glitchhunt there. :D
No hacks, no cheats, no glitches - only physics!
In Champion's Room, in Era of Taskan III, the tunnel to the Dungeons is actually still there - but sadly, it doesn't work.
So, I made the skip finally happen. You can enter the Champion's Room without touching Dungeons. If you talk to Gogoud inside the room, you can go the Lost City and get the Jewel of Gods.
Note: to do this, I use sideways movement (A and S) and I press spacebar in midair (as if you were slashing with a sword) to prolong the jumps' distance.
Sadly, from what I have tested, Vibe still won't give you the flag of Taskan IV until you rescue him.
The glitch was originally found by LJGreekChannel - I have improved the consistency of the setup. You can skip the cutscene with lady and enter Torras immediately.
Saves a couple of seconds for a speedrun! You can also use it to get a cool softlock!
Setup: walk backwards parallely to the door and mash spacebar.
Another (out of million) methods to skip Fairy Glade 1 - but this one looks (finally) consistent and RTA viable.

So... I show that this is possible - and no cheats are needed - only skilled jumping and a little glitch.
Mission accomplished!
If only the fortress' interior was solid (had collisions)...
So... Laboratory II will be a tomb for both Gogoud and Hype.
No skeleton was hurt to make the video.
Previously, a wrongwarp to Precipice was found by Capn.
Checkmate to a pirate!

After a long break I finally improved my run by a lot. The run was not perfect (there were dumb parts), but I am happy to present you a new run, with modern strategies, and this time in HD!

WARNING: The final hit has to be done with a crossbow, while staying on the bridge - otherwise you softlock!
Also thanks to Adsolution for his research about physics of platform corners.
Funny bonus at the end!
Idea by CoCo.
Found by Payman.
If not, then still nice unintended quantum mechanics...
Getting the perfect angle for the out of bounds jump is tricky and precise!
Found by CoCo and Robin.

As completing the level in 100% requires getting the Life Potion for Clark, the rules allow to enter this level with the potion already collected.
Comment:
One mistake, but not so big...

As this level is impossible to complete as 100% without the ability to grab purple lums (blue bullets), the rules allow to enter this level with the ability enables ("hangon").
Comment:
Not proud and not sad. Good enough for the first IL of this level. Easily beatable - by using more tricks or improving fails.

I had an issue with the autosplitter - but at least the end of the run is when the timer changes color to green.

Due to one stupid death this run is for sure not perfect, but still satisfactory to me for now - it is hard to get all wronggrabs and Jano skip quickly in one run...

It would have been a perfect run... if I was careful at the final pirate (and if I got OoB first try, which never happens)...

It is far from a perfect speedrun (I had 1 death and some minor mistakes), but at least it is faster than what I did in my full 100% speedrun.

Well, here is the scariest 100% IL in this game (I hope this IL run will prevent people from being afraid of this level in their full hundo runs). :D

As noone yet decided to go for IL for this level, I've decided to be the first one. 100% IL coming!

The timer overlay displays a comparison against my sum of best segments (which tells me how much time I have lost total compared to a "perfect run").
Comment:
This run was perfect (I don't know if I had any bigger mistakes). A bit of the time loss was due to me not doing Iron Moutains 3 OoB skip, which saves 10s, but is scary (especially when your hands shake). ;)

A good strategy for a speedrun.
0:21 - You can reach an unknown land by bypassing deathwarp triggers close to the wall.
Video produced with the help of my anonymous informer - who gave me the general idea how to exploit the glitch here!
