    As a speedrunner myself, with a time of 1:49:12, this guide is pretty helpful for people who may not be acquainted with the game. But there are a couple things I would like to make note of.
    Never grab the flag on a timer ending in 1,3 or 6. It’s faster to wait a in-game second than to do so. As by doing so, you only lose 0.75 seconds compared to the 2-3 seconds lost from the fireworks.
    You actually want to get a backup cat suit in 2-3, not 1-1, as 2-3 has a cat bell right in your path.
    In 1-2 it’s actually faster to throw the above shell at the Goomba stack.
    In 2-A, is you use the cursor to stun the Galoombas, they can be knocked out instantly with a claw swipe.
    In 3-1, make sure to release crouch before jumping, as you may accidentally long jump.
    After 3-CT, make sure to warp back to the beginning of W3
    The furthest way to cross gaps is to cat claw twice in the air float with peach, then cat claw some more. This allows us to jump from the switchboard from Green Star 2, to Green Star 3, and to the end in 3-7 with a running start.
    A similar technique is used in 3-Train to move between the trains, which progresses the autoscroll faster.
    In 3-B, you can also use ground-pound jumps
    In 4-4, you can bounce across the biddybuds to skip the moving platform, it’s also much easier than it looks (assuming you have a cat suit)
    Now here’s where most people’s route diverges
    After 5-CT, we go to 1-CT via the hidden warp pipe at the bottom of W5. In 1-CT, we grab stars 3,4, and 5 first, then drop down and get 2 and 1. Afterwards we warp back to W5, do 5-1, and then go to 5-3, where we get all 3 stars. Otherwise everything is the same except we go to W6 immediately after 5-Castle.
    Now this is a common misconception, but Prince Bully isn’t RNG, he actually operates on very tight cycles. The way we do it is we go to the right of him, and rolling long jump him into the middle left pipe. He’ll usually pop out the bottom left pipe.
    In 6-MH, on Star 3 (The P switch one), it’s better to do it normally unless you have the touch starts down perfectly.
    In Motley Bossblob, you don’t want to collect the double cherries, as they do slow down the pipe entry.
    For 7-1, you can skip the final pipe. It’s usually done with peach and cat momentum (which is still the fastest way of moving combined with vectoring with peach)
    In 8-1, you do actually want to collect green star 2.
    Another more minor route diversion.
    Some people go to 8-2 like in the video for safety, but going to 8-3 saves 20 seconds on average. Keep in mind if you go to 8-3, you only get green stars 1 and 2.
    In 8-4, we also collect green star 2.
    In 8-6, collect star 2 if you went to 8-3 instead, otherwise just skip it.
    In 8-Castle, most people use rumble to time their jumps. Also remember to not collect any green stars, though I have seen people collect Green Star 3 for fun.
    Now you may have noticed I didn’t mention more advanced skips, such as Fuzzy Skip, Candle Skip, Or any of the Grumblump skips. That’s because these are much more difficult, and you’d be better off using these once you get better. Same thing for crouch boosting.
    I hope this helps anyone that sees it!

    17:47 if you memorize the level layout you can actually skip almost all of the auto scroll as the game allows you to go ahead if the camera. The camera will always catch up to you in the spots where he showed in the video. So For the two vertical sections you can cut the time down drastically and the olny auto scroll you have to follow is the horizontal part.

    It would be worth timing all the green stars for how much time you lose off the optimal path to clear a level, and compared to alternate path levels length, and when and how many stars you need for each time the game gates you off by green stars to continue. It might be tedious as there so many of them, but if it hasn't been done completely, it should to optimize routes through the game.
