AFTER COUNTLESS FAILED RUNS, IT IS DONE. The final 10-minute barrier has been broken.

As with all of my PBs, this run had a slow start. I slowly caught back up with Baku’s run near the 1 hour mark after getting 5 golds in a row. Vanilla Ice and DIO played extremely nicely with Kakyoin getting multiple crits on DIO.

I’m not sure why my RNG was so consistently great in this run; makes me consider if Biorhythms are the answer. Out of 27 splits, 12 were gold. Some of my golds still don’t even come close to the former WR’s, meaning there is still a lot of time to be saved!!

Thank you to @Pell_, @RetroMaestroHalil, and @baku_zero for being incredible competition and motivating me to go for Gold.

Thank you to @DoritoBreath for suffering with me through the infinite failed attempts.

I encourage anyone and everyone to attempt this game so we can dig deeper into it and get that time lower!!

This run was achieved on OEM cartridge on an OEM American SNES.
