Easy Mode Guide: A guide on how to sacrifice your balls properly

In Easy difficulty (does not apply to Medium / Hard, you only have to visit the zones (Fun Zone, Thrill Zone, Nighttime Fantasy) to have them count towards completion. 

The speedrun strategy is to fall out of the thrill zone every time. Sometimes, you can use the right flipper in thrill zone to stop the ball from rolling up the sidewall causing a slower descent. This was done a few times in the 14:10 "Custom" run if you pay attention. You don't want to dunk the ball with the right flipper since it will hit the ground hard enough to go back into the Thrill Zone and cause a sound delay from the sound effect that triggers when falling out of the Thrill Zone

For Fun Zone events that take you to another board such as "Virtual Coaster" and "Canyon River Rapids", you can fall out of the table without any penalty to losing your ball, so you want to force tilt the table by spamming the tilt and nudge buttons so the ball saver turns off and you return to the main board.

On Fun Zones that take place in the main table, any ball lost will count like normal. Sometimes if you have enough pinballs to feel comfortable to finish the run and you get "Flying Falcon" or "Bumper Cars, you can tilt and end the event early and save 15-40 seconds depending on the circumstances.

Most people will be accomplishing the "Nighttime Fantasy" event towards the end of the run. The best move is to have spare pinballs and sacrifice the pinball right at the start so you don't have to hit all the red arrows.

The rest of the run depends on how skillful you are at completing the "RIDE" word in the gutters and hitting the three plasma emitters for opening the thrill zone.
