Untied sweep and my first record on silent assassin!

I always hated the syringe strat so I decided to launch the guy off the boat instead.

The easiest way I found to set up the mine throw is to try and get the mine to be directly parallel to the guy but as close to the wall as possible.

Even if you do manage to get him to launch properly it's very likely someone will find him later in the run.

One idea I tried was throwing a coin at the very beginning to distract the guards in the first area so they don't find the body as quickly. This helped sometimes but the movement was too complicated to do optimally so I stopped doing it in runs.

Another irritating thing about this strat is that you pretty much need to close the double doors after the 2nd mine throw or a guard will see you when shoot the TMP.

I do think this strat is overall more consistent than the syringe strat. I also find the mine throw strat more fun personally. The syringe strat is probably a little faster though, assuming you are really quick with the first kill, since you can more directly navigate the boat.

My first target time (TT) was my pause after taking out the TMP. Most of the time I wouldn't bother playing out runs over 0:23 since they'd generally be too slow for 1:08. This run had a 0:22.925 which is decent. My best time ever up to this point was ~0:22.7.

My other TT was when I pause near the end to prove difficulty. I tried to pause at the same area each time so I could get a good estimate of the pace. I liked to see under 0:59.5 because that meant I had a bit of allowance for guard RNG at the end. On this run. This run had a 0:59.602 but thankfully there was no guard nonsense at the end. My best time ever up to this point was ~0:59.3.

I had 3 completed SA 1:09s and countless 1:08 and 1:09 "Items Left Left on Level" and "Body Found" runs before this.

This was a 1:08.99 but I had several mid 1:08s with Items Left on Level
