    For the hidden station I have a way to theoretically get to the hidden station without wing and with all your geo by first doing the shade fire ball skip traversing through the palace grounds and in the stag station next bench go all the way back to get your shade quit and return and voila. This is definitely slower, but definitely easier

    But for the ancient bassin shade skip can't you just get the pogo then bench on the stag station cause it's a free bench, get you shade and safe quit back to the stag? In the force case scenario I think

    • @BlueSR
      @BlueSR  2 роки тому +4

      Yep! But it’s much much slower (loses 40ish seconds because you have to dash back and forth) and therefore not viable for the WR level runs of the category.

  • @l.n.3372
    @l.n.3372 2 роки тому +2

    Blue, love your videos! I have a question about this run, though. Why is it necessary to kill the shade simultaneously while doing the shade skip into hidden station stag? I know that you need the shade's money to buy the stag, but couldn't you have done a different strategy with less risk? For example, pogo the shade's vengeful spirit into the hidden stag station. Then, bench at the hidden stag station, go left, fall down into ancient basin again, kill your shade, then quit out. You'll have your shade now at the hidden stag station with all of your money to buy the stag station now, with less of a hassle and less RNG. Why wouldn't that have worked instead? I'm just trying to understand lol

    • @BlueSR
      @BlueSR  2 роки тому +2

      That works as well! It’s just a matter of speed and optimisation, since doing what you described is really slow. The strat i do is harder, but would save like 30 seconds over that

      @l.n.3372 2 роки тому

      Ah, it's about the time save. Makes sense. But simultaneously, if you fail the shade kill/soul pogo, it's a restart, right? So I guess having a safer run could make it more accessible to some people. Not that I have any speed run plans any time soon XD thanks for answering!

    Today when I walked into my economics class I saw something I dread every time I close my eyes. Someone had brought their new gaming laptop to class. The Forklift he used to bring it was still running idle at the back. I started sweating as I sat down and gazed over at the 700lb beast that was his laptop. He had already reinforced his desk with steel support beams and was in the process of finding an outlet for a power cable thicker than Amy Schumer's thigh. I start shaking. I keep telling myself I'm going to be alright and that there's nothing to worry about. He somehow finds a fucking outlet. Tears are running down my cheeks as I send my last texts to my family saying I love them. The teacher starts the lecture, and the student turns his laptop on. The colored lights on his RGB Backlit keyboard flare to life like a nuclear flash, and a deep humming fills my ears and shakes my very soul. The entire city power grid goes dark. The classroom begins to shake as the massive fans begin to spin. In mere seconds my world has gone from vibrant life, to a dark, earth shattering void where my body is getting torn apart by the 150mph gale force winds and the 500 decibel groan of the cooling fans. As my body finally surrenders, I weep, as my school and my city go under. I fucking hate gaming laptops.
