Title: RuffledBricks doing first WA speedrun in a marathon, Nov 29
Post by: Mablak on November 28, 2021, 12:34 AM: RuffledBricks will be showing off the first ever WA speedrun in a marathon setting on Nov 29! It'd be sweet if he could get everyone's support.

It's for UKSM, Nov 29th at 12 GMT, right here: https://www.twitch.tv/uksmlive

The All Missions Any% run is something both of us have spent a lot of time working on, and it's actually nuts how many improvements we've made. Also if anyone is interested in getting into the speedrun, join us here on discord: https://discord.gg/K9KrXfmuFG

I would say years to learn to apply in random variable situations, months in a narrow spectrum with easily repeatable setups. I think beating mablak's mission speedrun times would be infinitely easier than beating the deathmatch speedrun time. Adapting quickly to new situations is where experience really shines through.

Post by: Chicken23 on December 03, 2021, 06:17 PM: yes, but Ruffle has been speed running WA for some time without the broader WA community knowing about it. I remember commenting on his twitch channel almost a year ago about the whole WA community, tus, discord server etc and he wasn't aware and is now a part of them.

would be cool seeing him do some inter games though!
