like the any% run, i enable speedrun mode, grab the holoblock, & staircase to the end of magenta, sneaking through a 1.5 block gap to skip the entire dungeon & having to flick a lever to get in. in the fleecy box is a gold helmet that teleports me to "virtual reality" when i put it on. it normally gets cleared from my inventory when i leave, but i can smuggle it out by dropping it. i also break an extra glass block to make room for later, & grab some snowball grenades

i temporarily disable speedrun mode to get into the holoblock tutorial. at the end of this is a self refilling white wool box meant to serve as an example objective. picking up a white wool will instantly clear it, & return me to the centre hub, where i'm expected to have started the tutorial. i time a tick perfect input to get 4 white wool into my crafting window before it clears, then put on the helmet to teleport into vr, drop 2 white wool there, take it off to teleport me to the exit, & drop another 2 there

i then go back to vr & staircase over to grab the magenta wool. after picking it up, i'd normally be forced to wait 12 seconds, then run through a 14 second flashback sequence, but this can be interrupted. i take off the helmet, & spam the drop key as i pick up the 2 white wool so only 1 disappears. it teleports me back to the hub as though i've just completed the tutorial, & because i'm at the hub, the wool is turned in & the flashback sequence cancelled. i do have to spend an extra 10 seconds walking to the entrance of orange (compared to death reset strat), but the flashback skip makes it worth it, plus every other use of white wool actually decreases travel time

i go to orange first because it has the water bucket, which can be used to save time later. to save time, i place blocks on the very specific areas of the lava that are 1 deep, including a literal 1x1 pillar where i grab the water bucket. most of it is 3 deep, which is why i place water to turn it into obsidian instead of just running across. i take a lot more damage than i expect & barely avoid getting hit by a blaze, then decide to block myself with glass. in city hall, i have to quickly jump in the centre to lure the skeletons off their ledges, then pillar up to grab orange. i take off the helmet to teleport to the vr exit, & spam drop on the second pair of white wool, return to the hub, cancelling the flashback & skipping a long backtracking sequence

at this point i can do the last 2 wools in either order, but i do yellow first because i'm used to it from older routes. i leave my water so i can more quickly clear the fountain. i would have done a grenade jump here, but my health was too low, so i just staircase up to the keycard. i then use a grenade on myself to death reset back to the entrance, saving about 3 seconds. i grab the last snowball grenades i need, then use the water bucket to swim a shortcut through the 1 high gap in the gravel, saving about 10 seconds. i grab the yellow wool & put the helmet back on, picking up another white wool

i go to lime wool. normally you're meant to circle around to the back entrance, but i can once again use the water bucket to swim into a 1 block high area for a shortcut. i descend into the caves & get hit by a complete asshole spider, losing me about a second. this throws me off a bit & i make several more small mistakes on my way down. after going down to the factory, i do a grenade jump to skip a few seconds of bridging. then i die to a blaze, losing about 10 seconds. i grab the last wool, put the helmet back on, & wait a full 2 seconds for the white wool to be picked up because my render distance was too low for the pickup timer to count down

the boss fight starts immediately & i start hitting it with grenades, while moving to the second corner to pre-place water. hitting optimal grenades is hard because direct hits deal 0 damage. the second phase of the fight has the boss teleport to 4 corners at certain health thresholds, but grenades do enough damage to skip over a corner entirely. i try to do exactly enough damage to skip over the first corner, but am just barely short & have to lob a grenade to 1st. it does minimal damage because of the wall, but still enough to go to 2nd. it then takes damage to water because it's a robot. i go to the third corner, punch it 3 times, then grenade it so it dies instantly, skipping the 4th corner
