UV Max Speedrun of Doom E2M4 in 4:09
Getting this record, but FAILING the linedef-skip means that this time can be improved by 6 more seconds. That being said, I believe that getting a time under 4 minutes should be very possible.
In this run I got some very lucky berserk punching: the 1st baron died in 7 punches, and the 2nd died in only 6! The movement was pretty smooth overall; very few times did I bump into walls while strafe-running. I also managed to clear the secret room full of pinkies and specters pretty fast, so the run was good overall. But it could be better. Beside doing the SR50 at a correct 45 degree angle to do the line-skip trick correctly, I lost some time looking around for a pinky and an imp that weren't there. I also didn't manage to get the 2nd cacodemon killed by the crusher; which can save several seconds, despite being mostly random. At the last fight, I lost some more seconds looking for the last imp - it was right in front of me, but camouflaged by the brown walls behing it. Overall, it wasn't bad, but doing this run with 10 seconds less - and get under 4mins, should be a reality in the future.
I used the route of [Xit Vono, 2006] with only one change: when entering the crusher room, I ignored the secret door closing and, instead, went to the area where all the monsters are, to start some in-fighting, and start the crusher early. The main objective of this change is having a small chance that the crusher will kill the cacodemon, which saves a lot of time.
