Continuation of previous WIP136v3, 5 frames faster boss fight by using the pillar instead of catching the fireball to recover and attack.
Remaining tests: half-pixel starts on 5-2, 5-3 with different slot sub x's.

I was just looking at the bird boost in 5-1 (24309) and it looks like an extra blank frame in that jump lines up the coming de-spawn so 3 back-presses work instead of 5, but that makes the bird much harder (impossible?) to avoid later. Is this something you've already ruled out?

I've tried to incorporate it into pacifist route with:
  • doing the RTA trick at 5-1 start
  • boost from knife bitch's knife instead of the birdy boost
Is it possible to use the RTA trick and still boost off the bird later?

Wow, I didn't checked that earlier, but it's actually 7 frames faster to do that (because this way the bird is farther on the right side). To be sure, you meant this: blank frame before next despawn and only 3 back press, at least that's what I did now.

Yes, and it was 5 frames faster but the 5-2 final knife bitch was bad. If we are lucky with both improvements (5+7 frames), maybe this way the knife bitch can be avoided, gonna test it tomorrow.
Btw, thanks for your "continous" input regarding ideas, because most of the time you are right :D
edit: using the RTA trick and boosting off the bird, the 7 frame improvment can't be done because it requires 4 back presses to despawn the pillar guy. I uploaded my route with the RTA trick that desyncs at 5-2 knife bitch.

It would be nice to have time for more input, but I'm focusing on getting any% ready for submission (got it down to 39093 now, but still testing just one more thing to be sure.)
Oh, just caught your edit before posting. There should be a way to get the same result with the new positioning. Maybe a (non-interrupt) back press (-2px) instead of 2 blank frames (-3px). Haven't checked yet.
Edit: I went ahead and replayed 5-1 and it turned out okay. userfile here
