There's three ways to get the star throw:
1) Playing the stage from story mode
2) Restarting the stage frame perfectly as you're about to die
3) Restarting the stage two frames before you die, and then restarting immediantly after
Assuming one of those conditions is met, you have one frame to input a B press to release a shuriken (the B press needs to be held for exactly one frame, yes this strat is very dumb), which allows you to jump to the pinball table right away.
This IL can go to sub 20 if you can get the (you guessed it) frame perfect team blast at the end but this IL is already dumb as it is lmao.
LTS = Limited Tech Selection (No Major Glitches)
Egg Fleet sucked rest was good
I'm pretty happy with most of these runs, I kinda wished I could have used less pauses to make the runs look cleaner but it's a small price to pay to get a good time.

Lots of loop speed tricks in this one. I had hoped to make the turtle section look cooler but I couldn't find a better option than taking the ramps.
Banned strategies:
- TAS kicking (repeatedly chaining kicks by switching characters frame perfectly)
- Bop Boosting
- Table launching
- Mystic Mansion cage clip
IGT = sum of each stage's time
This stage was incredibly nerve wracking, I had to manipulate my teammates into giving me a rocket accel on multiple occasions, which took a lot of time and patience. One part that was really annoying was the section that's 40s in where you're supposed to take the bobsled. Skipping the autoscroller only saved 0.7s and it took me a whole day to optimize; it was hell lmao.
I'm satisfied with the end result tho, I think it looks pretty sweet. This was the first TAS I've done on PAL60, which speeds up the game by 20%, so that was pretty cool.

The 2nd half was definitely more optimized than the 1st half; I wouldn't mind redoing this one in the future.
This was by far the most broken stage in an LTS setting, having a total of 8 tornado cancels and insane glides to skip a lot of the stage.
LTS = Limited Tech Selection (think of it as no major glitches)
LTS = Limited Tech Selection (think of it like glitchless)
Now in *slightly* higher quality! It was supposed to look way better but I think youtube just decreases some of the quality so idk if there's anything I can do.
This LOTAD started as a project to understand rails more, but I ended up finding some really neat optimizations along the way and I'm really happy how this TAS turned out. The new tornado kick tech (0:50) is awesome and I'll try to use it more in forward TASes.
LTS = Limited Tech Selection (think of it as no major glitches)
Part 2 of my movement looks less and less human-like :)
Lots of cool tricks in this one, this was a lot of fun to make.
I also figured out how to dump dtm's (thank you Lemres) so now my recordings don't lag like crazy \o/
LTS = Limited Tech Selection (think of it as No Major Glitches)
This one doesn't have as many new RTA strats, but I found a lot of TAS strats, especially regarding rails.
I used frame advance pretty much the entire time so the movement doesn't look as natural, it feels a lot different to watch compared to the first two LOTADs I did lol.
This recording is also very laggy, sorry about that lol.
LTS = Limited Tech Selection (think of it as glitchless)
The aim of this LOTAD is to show off the new strats that got found and have them all in one place, and this stage has A LOT of those. Kinda funny how this beat my IL PB with the old bop boost by over 10s, this stage is kinda crazy.
The recording kinda lags in some places, sorry about that :/
This trick saves 30s over the power flight and 35s over playing the stage normally.
I didn't have a single 10s+ mistake, got elevator skip and one cycle emperor which are the hardest points of the run. Really couldn't have asked for better.
This category has seen a lot of activity over the last year so I'm really looking forward to see if this will go lower.
(LTS = limited tech selection = glitchless btw)
Also Eli best girl
2nd overall attempt bc I reset once in westopolis lol
This might be one of my favourite categories so I might try to get an 11 in the future.
I said the timer cue I use is 0.80 but I found out that it doesn't work every time. Try to aim for 0.75.
Something I didn't mention is that the power plant bop boost saves 50s for Team Sonic, 10s for Team Dark and negative time for Team Rose lol
If you have any questions dm me on discord if you don't do this in your runs I'll be very sad
I learned how to do the door slides and I'm just shocked at how much time they save and how cool they look. This has got to be my favourite tech in the game.
done on dolphin 5.0 so unsubmittable :(
This was achieved in preparation for the Dark Story tournament that ended today. I finished top 6 after only having learned the category for a month, so it's a great achievement for me.
This was a super fun run to learn, had lots of fun in the tournament and was really glad to be part of the SA2 community.
The run itself was really good for me. It had some great RNG but unfortunately I lost 15+ seconds in the last boss fight which kinda sucked. -- Watch live at twitch.tv/deku_sr
The goal of the run is to complete all 21 Game Land stages in the fastest time possible. The timing method is game time (think of it as the sum of each stage's time) due to the game's inconsistent load screens between different PC's and releases of the game.
This run was pretty good, the biggest mistakes were missing the skip in 4-3 and some mistakes in 6-3.
Grinding for this run was really fun and I'll definitely try to get a better time in the future, especially if this category becomes more competitive.
Really good run!!! Very happy with this :) -- Watch live at twitch.tv/deku_sr
Make sure to watch till the end for a secret strat 😳💯
Also naming all these strats was surprisingly really fun lol

I got the sub 39!!! This time felt unbelievable a few months back, but after a lot of optimizations and the addition of the Frog Forest turtle bop boost, I was finally able to achieve this incredible milestone.
The run itself was amazing. The only mistake I had was losing 15s on egg emperor, but that's about it, the rest was excellent.
I hope you enjoy the run!

I'm quite happy with this run, the sub 1:20 was honestly unexpected lol.
