  • Optimal (J): frame perfect/10

Any%

Safe (U)

Notes:

  • His spawn places are random, which makes it annoying sometimes.
  • Sometimes, he'll be spawing at the complete left side and you won't be able to hit him no matter how you place yourself T__T.
  • (0:43: Here is an example of this kind of bad luck).

Optimal (U)

Notes:

  • The video does not get perfect RNG, but demonstrates the quick hits, which are the improvement over the Safe video.
  • The quick hits are all fairly precise and run a high risk of taking damage if done incorrectly.
  • Overall, the quick hits save a little over 2 seconds.

Optimal (J)

Notes:

  • This makes use of Bleak Skip, which is a frame perfect start press.
  • The frame you want to press start on roughly corresponds to the final note of the death jingle.
  • This only works on the J version.
  • You CANNOT do this in 103%. You will not receive the Bonus Coin needed to complete the run.
  • Taking damage on the left side results in a shorter freeze frame when Kiddy takes Dixie's position.
  • Avoid hitting bleak as it can desync the audio and video slightly, resulting in the audio cue for the start press being inconsistent.
