It's possible and sometimes we try to do it. You are right that it's inconsistent and sometimes its just faster to hit the final element instead of waiting for it to orbit into the right position. The trigger for the fade out is getting the boss far enough away from Kuros, so if you blast it upwards and fall down at the right time, it can speed up the process. Might be wise to see if horizontal position could trigger the event... hmmm.

Cool! Can't wait to check it out. Thanks for the update.

I think it's time to spice things up.

Would anyone be opposed to having an Attack Power 9 category? The only other potential category I can think of would be Subless?

Thoughts?

Hey everyone! Thanks for the awesome feedback and I'm glad everyone is excited about this. I have a bit of concern regarding that run and it's legitimacy. Last year I messaged the individual regarding this run and he has not responded. This being such a short game it is hard to identify exactly what is wrong with the run in question but I would like you all to look at his final stage and compare it to mine or anyone else's run. Start out after both enemies are established behind for comparison. For some reason his enemies and even his character itself are moving slightly faster than other runs. It is very subtle but you can tell if you slow it down. By the end of the final stage he is almost a full screen length ahead, and as you all know the final stage is the most consistent as far as timing goes. The audio also becomes slightly ahead on his side comparatively but that could just be console lag. So that is not a basis for dismissal by itself. I would love some help in analyzing the run further to verify that no game genie codes or video timing manipulation has occurred before submitting a run on his behalf. If he had recorded a reset of the console in his video we could be sure that game genie is not the culprit. If anyone has experience in a situation like this I would like a second opinion. If we can prove the run is legit I will be more than happy to add it to the leaderboard.

Hello,

I am requesting moderator privileges on the Ironsword: Wizards and Warriors II leader board for a few of the other runners and myself. I have submitted a run a few days back that has had no movement. I had messaged the one current moderator via twitch messages but have not heard any sort of response.

Thank you very much for your time.
