I prefer separate categories for pin/submit and damage/countout

Hello,

I submitted WR runs for https://www.speedrun.com/wcw_the_main_event_gb and https://www.speedrun.com/boxing_legends_of_the_ring weeks ago, and the mods for both games appear to be inactive. I've been unable to contact them on social media.

Could I please mod these boards? I'm already modding https://www.speedrun.com/barkley_shut_up_and_jam and I've spruced up the page and added some new categories. I want to do the same for these other games too.

Thanks for your time, and happy new year

As far as I've been able to tell, the best team to pick is Sweet Pea for Player 1 and Stonewall for your CPU partner.

Sweet Pea has the best 3-Point Shooting stat, and a very good Steal stat.

Stonewall seems to be a high-powered mutant of some kind, and he will very graciously murder the other team and serve up the spoils to you at the 3-point line.

I tend to believe that the character who appears on the cover of the game is the best one in the game, but while Sir Charles is very good, I think Sweet Pea makes 3-pointers more consistently, and that's the key to racking up points fast.

There is some RNG seeding that seems to take place at the opening splash screen (when the music starts). It determines who the CPU will select as your opponents.

If you mash start when the game boots up (presumably skipping the first screen on the first frame), you'll get Stonewall/Newts, which is (IMO) a sub-optimal matchup. Maybe even the worst matchup. These guys will body you and steal the ball constantly.

If you wait all the way through the opening screen without hitting any buttons, you'll get Xaos and T-Bone. This is probably not the ideal matchup, but it's much better than Stonewall/Newts.

Other RNG seeds can be accessed by skipping the opening screen at specific points. It helps to time it with the music if you're going for a particular combo.

They're in!

you beast!

How many signs/posts can you hit before your car breaks?

Makes all the difference on the last leg of Desert Blast (and that's the easiest track too; I'm sure the roads only get narrower)

thanks for taking the initiative, webz

been meaning to get back to this game. it's pretty cool

Could there be a SNES version category? I'd definitely submit a run.

Could there be a "Win as Every Fighter" category? I'd definitely submit a run for it.

(Also, sorry about that duplicate Toney IL submission @thekink)

We have the 21-point win category. Why not one for the 50-point option? I'll submit a run!

Genesis plays faster (and just generally better, imo)

There's probably room to go sub-1:20

SNES version is very stiff by comparison. And at least 7+ seconds slower just on the tip-off alone. That one won't go much below 1:30.

FUN game though.
