General Notes

• Where the TNT barrels spawn is random
• Hitting Dumb Drum as early as possible saves time over waiting until he lands. Hitting him from high up saves ~17 frames over a hit immediately after he lands, but it's difficult not to take damage on him in the process
• If you hit Dumb Drum after he lands, he won't have a hitbox on the subsequent phase as he's spilling out enemies. However, if you opt to do a fast hit and hit him before he hits the ground, he will have a hitbox during the subsequent phase, so be careful.
• Rolling through both enemies as soon as possible is just as fast as bouncing on them both as soon as possible, as Dumb Drum enters the next phase at the same time regardless. If you roll through the enemies sub optimally you will lose time though.
• The optimal fight saves between 1.5-2s over the safe fight
