#grimmkin 5

Faster strat for the grimmkin.
end the cdash just a bit early to have time to charge the cyclone and not hardfall (by landing on the corner)
If you can react to getting good rng (low spawn, left or right) (by cancelling your cyclone early), you can get a 2s timesave by one cycling the grimmkin (like in video).
If you get bad rng, it's .3-.6s timesave.
You can also go for double fireballing if the grimmkin gives you a high spawn and shoots fireball, but would not go for it - if you fail it you're screwed

a good way to collect full soul for the peaks grimmkin so you're not hitting the shardmites' spikes

another "peach" (aka easier but slower) method for this cdash. landing near the edge and walking off to the side is about 0.05-0.1 faster than the dash into the side to set the cdash up.
note: do not cdash too high, you will bonk

(also worth note: the good cdash itself saves ~0.7s over the older dash+pogo only strat. the different peach strats save about 0.3 to 0.4 depending on execution)

saves ~.2-.3 over dashing right into dashing left to start the cdash, kinda tight. can make it easier by dashing into the wall, if you do the dash, its ~0.05 timesave

(edit) can save another .2 by prejumping after the downwards transition 🙂
