With livesplit patched and now able to remove load times we can officially start doing real competitive runs! I wanted to share this run because to my knowledge it is the World Record as of today (7-13-22).
The run had a kind of rough start but then started getting cleaner and ended with a very strong Chef Saltbaker time.
This was performed with the lobber/spread weapon combo, it is one that has seen a lot of play in the main speedrun.com board category of V1.1+ All Bosses and various other categories.
It looked really sketchy at first for if this weapon combo could still be good in the DLC but with enough effort I found pretty good strats (and stole some from others like SBDWolf's amazing moonshine mob phase 2 strat) that made this definitely viable alongside the other strong weapon combos in the category (like charge/spread or charge/twist-up)
Markin for example got an 11:31 with the charge/spread weapon combo so it's really cool to see different loadouts being used and still competing for top times! It's a really awesome to to be speedrunning Cuphead and I look forward in working this time down further.
