It makes use of certain glitches that need the runner to control 2 characters at the same time with 2 controllers. This is a glitch and skip heavy category, features a lot of smart boss strategies and enemy despawn manipulations through specific movement in fields. First sub 1:40 milestone, World Record and long-term goal of mine. I hated this last push for it and complained a lot but I was too stubborn to let it rest and finally got it. The run was pretty good overall. No Tropicallo quick kill and some minor timeloss before Spiky Tiger were things in the early game that could have gone better but all the early game bosses, Fire Gigas, Wall Face, Killroy and Jabberwocky died properly without a lot of issues which is a great start overall. Midgame was generally amazing and not much to complain about except some minor losses before Spring Beak and Vampire and some bigger ones on the Fire Temple and Sewers splits. Endgame was very mixed but good enough to clutch it out. Amazing Hexas, MechRider3 and DreadSlime splits but lost a lot to Buffy and Dark Lich. Finished off strong with a gold on Mana Beast, great run.
