Played on PC. FINALLY! After grinding this category for weeks it finally happened. A run with great RNG and great execution. There were definitely some preventable time losses, particularly on Captain Brineybeard where I lost 6-7 seconds due to playing too cautiously and missing the two cycle. The beginning of this run also had a few average/poor fights. Isle 2 was insane though. Excellent fights with good RNG on all the bosses. Isle 3 was good outside of Briney. Most importantly, Rumor Honeybottom gave me the good RNG (only a 1/3 chance of that happening) for the one cycle which was a huge timesave.

I was nervous going into King Dice, but after blowing a -6.2 run going into King Dice a few weeks ago it didn't weigh on me as much as it probably should've that I was this close to WR. Going even on that split is a huge win since my fight on my PB was really solid. I knew I'd be okay on Devil as long as I didn't get Spider RNG (roughly a 20% chance of that occurring), so after I got to second phase I knew I was in the clear. Feels great to get this record. I don't think I'll try to push this time any further unless new tech is discovered simply because getting a run with good enough RNG is so unlikely, and playing well on top of that makes a run like this extremely rare. I'll probably play a few other categories (like All Flags) and possibly go back to Current Patch after the AB Legacy tournament is over.

EDIT: SBDWolf took the record back by 1 second as of 11/23.
