[MKWii TAS] DS Delfino Square Flap - 35.524 (Supergrinding/Superhopping)
TAS by @Kierio04 and @EjayB.
-1.555 from TAS by myself (https://youtu.be/qphlgtiyAxY)
Music: Animal Crossing: City Folk - The City (Day) (https://youtu.be/GeLcJaFBw44)
I started working on this TAS back in October, and reached out to Ejay asking if he wanted to collaborate with me. He agreed, and helped optimise the latter half of the supergrind, the fountain shortcut, and the deceptively difficult turn after. After a bit of inactivity, I was able to get a prelim 36.3 in November.
After that, little to no work was done on the TAS until this past week. Since we last worked on the flap, Thomas did significant work on a lap 1 for a 3lap TAS, showcasing optimised ODB strats. I realised that we had the incorrect cycle as the drawbridge needs to NOT be flat, so Ejay and I agreed to just clean up the rest of the lap and leave out the ending SG as the only major optimisation missed (as we would need to optimise the entire TAS from scratch multiple times to find out when we would need to start the lap, which would be very tedious and a huge waste of time). After a couple full days working on it, I was able to finish the run, saving another 0.8 from just optimising better.
Fun fact: Some of you may have seen in the TAS discord that I told Thomas about the SH around the turn at 0:31 when he was working on that part of the lap 1 TAS. I did this because I had done some work on this flap and found the SH there, only to find Thomas not using it.
Special thanks to Ejay for suggesting the music, I really like it.
