Your run is faster than mine (I noticed a different path), you'll see.

But I think I make better use of the tornado. Nice r.coil at the end though, didn't think of that. (I posted a video response)

I'll try mixing both paths :)

I've been trying to get past that final enemy with a concrete block. If you time it right you can just jump over the dude without stopping.

It's not...

1:12 the spikes spare no one, not even a fake megaman. BTW good run, does anyone know how it's possible for someone to get 1:08 on concrete mans stage.

Y'know, on the last enemy, instead of wasting rush coil, you should spam laser trident as soon as you know it'll be close to the screen. You won't have to stop once if you do it correctly.

I hate it when ppl use the bosses weapon on there level, I wish Capcom would disable the boss weapon for the bosses level.

Love these speed runs! You are totally 1337 ;) I could never even dream of being so fast

Just wanted to point out something, the three blocks that cause a second or two delay appear at exactly 1.07 on both this video and a competing speedrun, even though you enter the room at different times. This shows to me they are clock linked and don't pattern spawn when the room is entered. get here .2 to .5 of a second faster somehow and you'll be able to beat them and shave a full 1 - 1.5 seconds off your time.

He's tricky, yeah. My suggestion is to try to be on the opposite side from him. You know, so the center's between you. Shoot from a distance so you can see his plug ball attacks coming and evade. Oh, and watch them on the ceiling too.

Had to do this a few times.

I picked my order as soon as I saw the select screen, and I chose Plug Man first. Once I pick my order, I don't change it...even back in the day when Mega Man 2 was the newest. Unfortunately...Plug Man is really difficult with the arm cannon, and I refuse to purchase things at the store since I consider it cheating because the older 8-bit games didn't have it, so I have to rely on one E-tank that I find in the level. He's VERY hard with just the arm cannon.

[felloweskraft]

ah.

but yeah, a lot depends on the last block puzzle and the boss battle.

made it back to the leaderboards at 7, 1:25:68. Hopefully I can do another video

Basically it's a slight hit invulnerability. Like what you have when you get hit and avoid damage for a few seconds, but shorter.

Moved up to 4th, but everything has to be perfect once you set up that rush coil and perfectly pass by the disappearing blocks... 1'25"21 is an insane time.
