80 frames faster than the Area 1 in https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HC_4WnGvrUg, not including the deaths, and 59 frames faster than if using big Mario since that TAS is not completely optimized. This is a very tight framerule with no frames to spare.

This TAS uses the game genie code AEPLLG, which allows jumping in midair. The RTA timing for this TAS is 4:37.160.
Commentary:
1-1: AEPLLG speeds up the underground section because you can land on the platform and gain running speed earlier. It also allows a trick known as FFPG, which saves well over 2 seconds on each flagpole. It involves clipping into the flagpole base and hitting the flagpole from inside the block, but at a lower position than normal FPG because of the usage of AEPLLG.
1-2: AEPLLG allows clipping through blocks from below by repeatedly jumping, since the upwards speed you get from jumping is faster than the wall ejection speed. Also, you can jump below the lowest layer of blocks. This is used to speed up the warp zone by going under the ground then through the pipe, which saves a framerule over clipping into the wall to the left of the warp zone. Turning around before the final jump into the pipe is slower by 1 frame because you land 1 frame later.
4-1: Nothing special here, just some midair jumping and FFPG at the end.
4-2: With AEPLLG, it is possible to clip into the first wall as shown in this TAS, which is the fastest place that you can clip in to gain x position to trigger the wrong warp. Using the vine to teleport to the right is potentially faster, but I wasnt able to get it to work. Clipping through the bottom of blocks is again used in the warp zone, saving a framerule over the normal turnaround method.
8-1: Again nothing special.
8-2: The time counter on the top right pauses when youre very high up. This is used to manipulate the time counter, so that fireworks are avoided.
8-3: Again manipulating the time counter to avoid fireworks.
8-4: If you die, the screen stop scrolling. However, with AEPLLG, you can jump up after the game thinks youre dead from falling into a hole. This means you can go all the way to the far right side of the screen by simply moving. For some reason, the pipe, as shown in the TAS, takes you to the next room when entering it from the far right side of the screen, saving a lot of time. Surprisingly, waiting until landing on the ground to use left+right to slow down quickly is just as fast as the turnaround in HappyLees normal warps TAS, despite scrolling the screen an extra pixel. I dont think this turnaround is perfect, but I wasnt able to find any faster method.

I found out about the death warps in 1-1 and 4-1 in https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8h_4nSjyQik
Two pipe clips and a mushroom grab is just barely enough to get the 8-4 first room wrong warp, with only 1 pixel to spare. Grabbing the mushroom saves about half a second over not grabbing it because of SMBFlows lack of cutscenes and you must otherwise wait for the plant in 8-4 first room to go down.")

![[TAS] Super Orb Bros. Level 1 Normal Exit](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/vXgL_CF36p4/hqdefault.jpg "[TAS] Super Orb Bros. Level 1 Normal Exit
This TAS completes Level 1 of Super Orb Bros. using the normal exit in 3496 frames or 58.171 seconds starting from when Mario appears and ending when the orb disappears. However, text boxes occupy much of that time, and there is actually only 1695 frames or 28.204 seconds of gameplay. For comparison, the Level 1 in the WR (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fp7iCXMmzr0) not including the restart at the beginning has 48.583 seconds of gameplay.
Rerecord count: 5717 (over triple the number of gameplay frames!)")

Kriller% is a category I made. Its goal is to collect 37 coins as quickly as possible. Timing starts on taking control of Mario and ends on the frame that the coin counter first shows 37. The route was inspired by Simplistic_Memess WR: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JoKuehxyZhc.
I dont think humans can get anywhere close to this TAS because of the incredibly precise movement required in order to hit the multi-coin block while dodging the goombas. In addition, the underground section is very hard to do quickly. The TAS route differs from the WR route because the TAS can get an extra coin out of the multi-coin block.")
