This map and the next two after are actually pretty demanding in terms of speedrunning. I've been practicing them both and have found them pretty hard.
This map isn't as hard but is still a worthy mention otherwise. The start is hot with hitscanners and crowds you if you're not quickly. Move into a room where you can get the SSG and you're all good for that section. You can charge out firing and walk up the stairs to the switch.
The platforming section is not really my jam, but I think that's because I suck at platforming. rd recommended me a couple tips on how to get good at platforming, so soon I might end up posting a series on me getting good at platform heavy maps.
For the time being, we'll focus on the rest of the map. The ending isn't so bad but you can lose track of where the monsters are since they do like to move about. Stragglers become a pain to find if you're not paying close attention to the area you started in (they're most likely there).
After that, you're done with the level. May I warn you the next couple of maps will probably come consecutively (from map04 - map06). Rush map 12 may also come out within that time frame. It's really just up to whether I can beat it or not. We'll see for now!
