So I just perfected a strat for one of my runs ( http://www.speedrun.com/Hue#any )that I had previously dismissed as infeasible. I was pretty hyped until I timed it and realised it maaaaaaybe saves 2 seconds (and while feasible, it still remains a good deal harder than the ordinary solution). What do you do in situations like this? Go for the swaggy strat? This one looks about 1000x cooler than the ordinary solution. I'll give videos if anyone's interested.
Go for the faster of the two. Try to practice the strat before you put it in runs, and before you know you'll be more able to perform the strat.
If you do it consistently then go for it. If you don't do it consistently then still go for it.
Interesting. Sounds like you could be legendary if you pulled it off during an event like GDQ. Go big or go home, yeah? Yeah. You've got this.
I mean I misspoke when I said "perfected." More like, "figured out how it's possible despite looking lolimpossible."
If it saves time and looks cool, always go for it. If it loses a little time but looks cool, practice it outside your regular runs and use it as a hype generator for events and such (or even to de-tilt yourself when you really need to do something cool). Showmanship is half of a good speedrun after all.
