  • Optimal: 5/10

Any%

Safe

Notes

  • Every barrel spawn is random, so seconds can be lost on RNG in this fight.
  • The 2nd round is the most important in terms of RNG, since getting the infamous Left spawn is much slower.
  • Standing at the higher platform for the fanfare saves ~2 frames over the lower platform. Save the frames!

Optimal

Left Left Mid

Notes

  • The 2nd set of ropes can be tough to navigate quickly without getting hit. Find a comfortable way if you struggle doing Riz Ropes.


MORE STRATS

  • This method is faster if you can do Kipples ropes well (alternating from left to right every jump), or simply can climb well from the left.
  • The Quick Left spawn methods are a bit risky, but you avoid waiting for the bird after grabbing the barrel.
    • For #1, hesitate a split second before jumping on the bird so you don't lose Diddy.

1st Phase Quick Kill

  • Instead of jumping on the ghost mini-necky into the real one, you can jump directly left to hit the real one. (Saves .05)
  • A good visual cue for this is start your roll jump when you see the ghost mini-necky move his head (before he dives forward).
