Any%

Optimal

Notes:

  • This is one of those stages where you can buffer inputs as you enter the stage (similar to ogang). As the screen starts to fade in, tap B then A. That way you'll roll and immediately short hop upon entering the stage.
  • Holding B does make you run faster as the Ostrich
  • You might want to use claw grip so you can hold B and mash A while flying as the Ostrich (index finger on B, thumb on A)
  • At the end it's faster to ditch the Ostrich and roll through the Klaptrap. Doing this followed by Jump Momentum Conservation saves ~10 frames

Safe

Notes:

  • Requires less mashing
  • Hero mode was used to simplify recording on console. The strats remain the same as regular Any% regardless.
