Echo Hero Mastery Veteran 12739 3 Score

I'm sorry but I'm just really bored with echo. I think 12800 score is possible with this route. Also at 1:18, you can skip the bottom guy, kill the 2nd shield bot, dash and continue on to the 3rd shield bot. Killing the bottom one here is just more consistent while you are still practicing killing the other stuff below when you're on the falling platforms. I feel like this whole route in general could be better though.
I tried many things to make a copy work.
- Near finish, take top 3 coins first then fly down to bottom 5 coins. Fly to finish, copy bastion and grenade in front of the last shield bot on the falling platform. [Faster than going under first but takes too long to wait for them to fall off]
- Jump down to the 5 coins, grenade myself so I never touch the ground. Die so I can stop being bastion and get back up top. Also respawn and crawl close to the finish. [Good idea but there is just no time to wait to respawn]
- On top. Kill some things as Echo and Copy (as a reload), kill stuff with better dps, grenade myself to falling platform and ult immediately. I move my ult the same time my body is moving. Here I either jump to the 5 coin below and change back to echo or I can also die if I have too much copy time like above. [This way is too slow because it copies bastion too late. We have to walk too much with echo at the beginning and end]
- Go top first, kill as I walk to bastion, copy bastion, get the 2 coins below and grenade myself across the gap. [This way takes too long because we are not moving to the finish and we still have to get the 5 coins below].
- When flying to the end, cancel fly immediately after the air coins and use bouncepad first to go top, kill 2 shield bot as Echo, drop down to the 2 coins, fly back up to the other 2 shield bots. [Yes we can sticky and shoot things when we go down but we are not moving to the finish]
- Going for the under 2 coins but stay under and bhop to the middle shield bot. Collect the bottom 5 coins and fly up to copy bastion. nade a front top shield bot, shoot back top shield bot, ult other side top shield bots, nade a platform [The problem here is that we only get 2 nades. Being bastion for 16 seconds is too long. Also moving my ult takes a lot of time.]
- and maybe more ideas.
The start, I'm over half a second behind already.
My bhop on the tall pillar was bad. I could have also just floated high to the right of it instead.
I could have made the explosive bots come out earlier and give me multiple boosts forward.
I have in a different run, reached the floating platform at 36 seconds. 38 is meh.
I messed up the tall tank bot area. I could have been farther and flown at 54 seconds.
I missed a lot of shots top. I stayed too long shooting the last shield when I could have left earlier.

Nah nah I was slow everywhere lol. My segments have been at least a second faster at each area.

@@nsbss1 well I’m on console I wish I could be as precise and quick as this 😅 the routing is helping me push for higher scores still tho!
