BlazeMSX | [MKWii TAS] SNES Ghost Valley 2 - 49.185 (0-3-0 Strat) @MalleoSquirrelX | Uploaded 9 years ago | Updated 5 hours ago
To answer the inevitable question: I didn't expect this shroom strategy would be faster (all I wanted to do was make a run using it)
I've wanted to do a 3lap run using the FLAP strat for a really long time, and I'm really happy with how it turned out. The second to last turn on this track is very tricky. If you compare all three laps together, you can see I take completely different lines every time around. This is due to the unique angles I ended up approaching the turn at. This shroomspot I used is probably around .5-.6 slower than the normal strat, so it's no surprise I didn't beat Dani's run in the process. The second lap is the fastest TAS FLAP time on GV2, but it can easily be taken lower if I were to be given the same advantage as Estaloy did in his run (better alignment for the glitch, all of the bricks fallen down.) About the wheelie trigger on the yellow ramp... I discovered that technique earlier today by complete accident, and was too lazy to improve it on the second lap (it only saves a small amount of time). I got by driving off of the ramp very briefly to the right, before switching directions. The trick ended up being so low that an animation barely appeared. I'll eventually do a normal TAS here, but I think I'm going to try to make an exclusively lap 1 TAS on Misty Ruins - reason being I think that track is totally in deserving of a proper run there.
