dashmaster cycle for cdash gauntlet. Everything until the last conveyor triple dash doesn't actually matter for the cycle, the triple dash on the conveyor before (be sure to go neutral for a bit) saves ~0.1 though. overall this cycle saves something like 0.5-1s over normal strats and is about same difficulty. you can also do damage tank cycle for the first bit if you have the hp like usual (need at least 4 hp for 107, 3 for 112). damage tanking the last laser loses time.
4Pre-1.2 strategy for getting the platform next to the Grub jar down from below, requires Great Slash, doesn't work with Dash or Cyclone, extremely situational but saves a bit of time for 100% TE NMG
2played around with jen's early birthplace/voidheart unlock drop, and found cues for it.
1: as long as you are further right than this position for the drop you'll be safe from any spikes.
2: the yellow box below the knight is the entrance trigger, so you can simply walk off -> drop a bit -> dash -> wings in to the spikes
(also there is zero practical reason to cut it that close even, but its still nice to know when youve gone too far)
