Hardest settings tool assisted speedrun!
I use Radel loops in the corner for fast fights and I only use other combos as finisher or to put enemy into the wall where's it's possible to loop. The second character has an infinite but it didn't seem useful at all so I may have lost a few frames choosing Lynn and also lost a decent ending.
If you want to watch the original speedrun that gave us these strats, watch https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fTmZ5-gOxPM&ab_channel=theadictt
See you around!

nymx: Claiming for judging.
nymx: Regardless if there is a way to end each round effectively, without being perfect, this run does beat the game very quickly. In fact, this run cuts a minute and almost 20 seconds from the WR...mentioned in this submission. Apparently, the aforementioned technique isn't trivial and therefore isn't an oversight. Anyway... the run look good and I congratulations on your work.
Accepting.

despoa: Processing...

One thing I noticed is the "PERFECT!" banners at the end of each round, which seems to delay the characters end speech. Is there some way to manipulate chip damage to avoid that time loss, or is it simply slower than letting the banner play out?

blockstun is absurd in this game, and most moves the CPU was doing were pretty slow to block or to get hit by and then strike back
I want all good TAS inside TASvideos, it's my motto. TAS i'm interested: Megaman series, specially the RPGs! Where is the mmbn1 all chips TAS we deserve? Where is the Command Mission TAS? i'm slowly moving away from TASing fighting games for speed, maybe it's time to start finding some entertainment value in TASing.

correction, the loop isn't an infinite combo as displayed on publication text, it's just an AI exploit
