For new MST route idea.
(EDIT) [Important Note]
Some people say they can't OI to blue warp, but it's because bugs pushed you and Link's position was changed. If you want to reduce risk of this bugs push, just add vertical slash + R before dropping bugs. This position works without bugs push and still works even with some bugs push. But it's not 100% guarantee to success, blame stupid bugs.
There was good setup for initial with HC since before
Zas's original video: youtu.be/jBxtR8haI_Q
Alien's tutorial: youtu.be/Eh0tZzAfk6s
But I wanted a setup you can catch bugs after neutral roll and made this one. It's like 0.5 sec slower with fish, but 2-3 sec faster with bugs because you don't need to wait bugs come to good position. Also you don't need to kill Bongo with slightly different angle.

![Improved Collapse Clip Setup (9 Chus)
[PLEASE READ DESCRIPTION]
I didnt explain nothing in the video except input viewer, because there are many notices for this trick and couldnt explain everything, so Ill explain here
Previous Setup: https://youtu.be/pYM8-ryxa84
For previous setup, you needed to roll + sidehop + roll for clipping. Blini found simpler adjustment but still needed extra sidehop. https://youtu.be/eHK2bcNystw
So I made 5 setups for removing that extra movement for in September 2018, but I made that video unlisted for a long time since I felt these are incomplete setups. But some people use the setup in runs already and often I was asked about the setup, so I decided to upload this video.
This setup is 2-3 sec faster than previous one even with blinis adjustment. One reason is no extra movement for clipping but less stance changing is another reason.
The video with coordinates (Setup 3): https://youtu.be/QNL-Q1qamTA?t=80
This unlisted video has the other 4 setups too. You might be able to find better setup for you.
Also this Dannys tutorial is for iron boots setup but still useful for learning Links stance thing: https://youtu.be/0k2-O8IWSlE
[Setup]
1. get ISG
2. target to the left side wall of gate, turn left, keep the angle and right sidehops to the corner (basically 3 times is enough but it could give bad position if your start position is too far from corner, so 4 times is safe)
*1: you can get same angle by just turning right after entered room: Its a bit faster if you can get ISG from bomb or chu.
*2: by sidehops to the corner, you can get slightly slightly different two coordinates. but its so small difference (you cant check that difference by gz watches) and no matter for clipping as long as you did 4 sidehops.
3. (re-target/shield flick for avoiding sideroll,) dryroll, backflip, sideroll, dryroll
4. sidehop left and keep holding left for sidewalk, pause after Link reach the ledge, equip hover boots, backflip during unpause lag and shield drop a chu on the 2nd/3rd backflip frame for 1st hovering
*3: you need to hold left to the ledge before hoverboots backflip. otherwise you cant get good coordinate with 1st hovering. So you can NOT do like this: left sidewalk to the ledge → stop holding left → pause → backflip + hovering
Links stance is important after this.
when Link holds shield, his knee faces left or right
his knee faces to left, its left stance
his knee faces to right, its right stance
this stance can change by tap ESS left/right
tap ESS right: makes left stance
tap ESS left: makes right stance
with each stance, hovering timing is a bit different
=left stance hovering=
- pull out a chu
- hold down (for minimum 1 frame)
- drop chu and backflip on the 1st/2nd drop frame
=right stance hovering=
- pull out a chu
- hold down (for minimum 1 frame)
- drop chu and backflip on the 0th/1st drop frame
(0th means drop and backflip at the same time)
5. do more 8 hovering like this
- 3 right stance hovering
- 1 left stance hovering
- 3 right stance hovering
- 1 left stance hovering
6. equip kokiri boots, right sidehop (release Z during sidehop)
7. turn right , z-target once but release it, press A for dryroll (if you keep holding z after dryroll, you cant turn after this)
8. turn around, 2 frames ESS turn left
9. right sidehop, jumpslash on the 12th-15th frame and hold stick any direction (holding right after sidehop is easy)
Before this setup, many people worked on this trick. I dont name here but I appreciate them for amazing working. Improved Collapse Clip Setup (9 Chus)](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/p0xAJsxMm1c/mqdefault.jpg)
