Played on PC. Made a few mistakes, but really happy with the run overall. I missed Menu Glitch on Rumor Honeybottom, Phantom Express, and King Dice. I also messed up my route a little bit by forgetting to grab bombs after Baroness and having to backtrack.

For those of you that are not familiar with Menu Glitch, it is a trick that is banned in all categories besides Any% which allows you to pull up the menu while gameplay continues, allowing you to bypass the results screen, paths opening on the world map, and the contract animation. This saves 15-20 seconds per fight, but the glitch does not work on Airplane levels. To do the glitch, you need to parry right before taking damage, and pause immediately AFTER taking damage.

I played this run with the same controls I use for any other Legacy category, which is the Default control scheme with Shoot/Weapon Swap switched. However, this setup prevents me from being able to use EXs or jump while the menu is up, since those buttons would interact with the menu or make it disappear, which makes this category very difficult to run without altering controls.
