Guide to a Fast Win% Run

There are three main factors that determine the speed of a Win% run:

1. **How many rounds you play**

2. **How quickly you get a shot off**

3. **How quickly the shot goes in**

**Number of Rounds Played (Most Important)**
The biggest factor in your final time is how many rounds you play—this depends on whether you get double points once, twice, or not at all. Playing four or five rounds instead of three can add 10 seconds or more to your run.

**Speed and Efficiency of Shooting** You should aim to shoot quickly and make the shot on your first attempt. Missing and needing multiple shots will significantly slow you down. I recommend using the strategy from my 17.071 Win% run

Win the jump ball

Land

Immediately jump again and shoot

This method helps ensure fast and consistent shots.

Also swing skip is now important to skip the swinging animation before the jump ball. Check out the guide by JoeBsMum!

**Shot Trajectory and Rim Time**
You want your shots to go directly into the hoop. If the ball bounces on the rim for a few seconds before going in, it can cost you time. While this doesn’t affect the run as much as the previous two factors, over 3–5 rounds it can add up.

**Conclusion**
For a great Win% run:

Hope to get 2 double points

Use swing skip

Win face-offs consistently

Shoot quickly and accurately

Minimize rim bounce time

How to Time/Retime Runs

1. Upload your run to YouTube. Make sure the video is set to *Unlisted* or *Public*, then copy the video URL.

2. Go to [the timing website](https://noobjsperson.github.io/better-speedrun-retimer/index.html), and paste the video URL into the textbox.
3. Click **"Load"**.

4. Once the video has loaded, click **"Show Video Info"**, then find the **framerate** and enter it into the **"Framerate:"** textbox. It will be the number next to the @.

5. Use the frame stepper to find the first frame after you press the **"1p"** or **"2p"** button. This is typically when the title starts moving offscreen. Then click **"Set current time as start"**.

6. Use the frame stepper to find the first frame when the desired outcome is reached (e.g., when the score reaches 5 on your side for Win%). Then click **"Set current time as end"**.

7. Use the value shown as **"Total Time:"** as your final run time.
