Recorded April 28, 2020.

Second run starts at 2:08.28.

It's safe to say that today was a good day. Both of these runs beat the previous record set in July 2019. I'd like to believe that superior routing made this possible. It's not like my execution was top notch or anything. (See the first run's Banishment...)

Through these runs, three things were made clear:
1. Kuriboh is BASED.
2. Harpie Lady is BLIND.
3. Obelisk decides EVERYTHING.

No matter what you decide to go into the final battle with in a speedrun context, it is evident that you will be woefully under-leveled. If Obelisk does its thing, then either one of my monsters is taking about 60% LP damage or all of my monsters are taking 70% damage (not to mention Kuriboh is just plain barbecue at that point). Therefore, the fastest Obelisk fights will have Obelisk do as little as possible. For this route, it's all on Harpie Lady attacking successfully (not guaranteed), paralyzing with her Electro-Whip (not guaranteed), and each paralysis lasting at least one turn (not guaranteed). You have no control over any of that. What a well-designed boss fight.

2:01 should be reasonable with this route (which I still need to update on my leaderboard guide). Anything more than that will require absurd critical hit luck. I can't even begin to imagine how I would try to manipulate the luck in this run.
