I figured the HR was tied up somewhere. It seems this glitch has no place in an any% TAS, which is kind of sad cause it's very interesting. Maybe someone will do an All Bosses TAS someday and clog the site with more SotN categories? Atleast Massive Shiftlines/EWGs are no longer a necessary trick for map completion.

The SRL speedrunning crew has taken to calling it Reverse Shift-line. It can be done in any room that the screen can scroll in. It can be used to skip Karasuman, but all other bosses have different loading styles so he's the only boss skippable with it. Might save time in a TAS, since it effectively skips the need to Revenge Tech, and you menu in the fight anyway. I'm not sure where the 1 HR you'd have there is used, so it might not save time there at all, just an idea.

Thanks for posting that, it definitely brings up a lot of ideas (shurikenless damage glitch?), but unfortunately since I'm using zips and warps, most of the route is entirely unusable for me.

All previous updates here, to stop the post from being cluttered: http://pastebin.com/EphQxY8F Finally beat DWB. I've also decided not to submit this when it's done, due to possible route change for the bosses, and me having no idea how to manipulate crits at the moment. I'll still be completing this just to get used to the movement and certain boss strats. Here's everything up to the zip after DWB: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rr4_W0xoAuk
