I enjoyed watching the IL speedrun pack for this wad and decided to do a D2All TAS run. I expected the time to be around 14 - 15 minutes but considering how long some of these maps are, I am not complaining. I did some visible mistakes here and there and realized them pretty late into the run and so, I would put the ideal time for this wad somewhere around the 15 minute mark, unless some crazy tricks are discovered. I know improvements are possible, now that I look back at some of the earlier maps, and maybe one day I migt return to improve this if I had enough motivation. Overall, I had fun playing this wad and planning routes for it. Hope you have fun watching too!

P.S: Make sure to have SMOOTH DEMO PLAYBACK turned on!
