hellos!
one of the scythe x runs i didnt upload time ago. Time isn't so great, infact the DSDA record is currently 4:06
Concerning dsda, i realized only lately I actually could improve a few records on the archive, so I will have a look on the times on the archive, and mail my lmps for the interested as well. Will also probably try to challenge other people records whenever i'm able to get a decent time :p

As most of the scythe x maps, also map 08 has a variety of weapons to choice and to splat monsters with. Deciding best weapons in the route is the key to get good times as usual. At beginning there's a small jump trick, also used by the uv-speed runners, to get the red key a bit earlier. This was my way to get plasma gun very early and speed a bit up the rest. In the bluekey open area, i decided to cliff-kill the cyberdemon, and luckily one chaingunner was up to help me as you can see.. too bad he had a rocket in his ass as payback lol
time could have prolly be better by killing with plasma the cyber and causing infighting with the mancubus there, but i always found it very dangerous. I wonder if there's another way to get the second secret, because to me seems very weird how they let only get at the ending part the megaarmour (i get it when every monster is down)
if i ever finish to play the cchest wad will give a try improving current uv-max times.
