Whew! After not playing for a few weeks I just beat the WR on this map by more than a second! And I got pushed it to under 45 secs!
I held the very first (and only) WR on this map back when CP5 still didn't work and you had to loop back. I devised a strategy and managed to beat it. So obvs when the map got updated, it still had a very special place in my heart. I love this map! It's so special in all the best ways!
This is one of the best tracks in the entire game, imho! The whole campaign should be added to the base game. But this track stands out to me.
I'm sure Histioth's strat between cp 3&4 saves time, but it seems incredibly unreliable... I haven't been able to replicate it.
As it stands, I can beat Histioth to cp 4 because I have a better start than they do, but it's only very close.
Awesome run!
I made a few discoveries that you might want to incorporate into your run! I am not good enough to beat WR myself (yet) – or at least I think so! ;)
You can see my run with the implemented strats under the ghost "strats on lap"
1. If you take the right loop at the start, you come out of the loop up to the second cp considerably faster (240 speed vs. 190 on your run).
2. If you do a small brake tap before the jump up to the third cp, you will carry considerably more speed, bc. of reduced air time.
3. Get an end jump as incredible as yours and no one will be able to beat your record ;)
Looking forward to seeing your run!
