The Legend of Zelda (NES speedrun) First Quest Swordless "no up+a" in

swordless is a challenge and puzzle category in Zelda 1 (The Legend of Zelda, NES)
Special limitations for this run: only screen scroll and block clip glitches are allowed, and the run must be deathless (no up+a or actual death)
The game cannot be fully completed without a sword, but Link can enter into Ganon's room, where the timing ends.
This category requires extensive creativity and use of sub-weapons, mostly bombs and the magical rod.
This run was on CRT and NES console.
It was captured using a GV-USB2 into a PC running OBS.
Speedrun performed on October 4, 2023
