Boo Dragging

Any good tips on Boo Dragging like what you'd do to get breaker room boo in a one cycle I've seen some videos, but can't really get the angle right I think that or I pull back just a bit too far can't put my finger on it and was wondering if there is any precise movements or just sort of free form

One of the things about going for that 1-cycle, is to pump just slightly slower than usual, (11-12 HP instead of 10) so make sure you're also doing that.

It's very finicky to even get a shot at the one-cycle,and I still have yet to pull it off once (though I have cut it close a few times). You just gotta pray that things work out, I guess....

Hi sorry for responding late, I saw this earlier. So there's a LOT that goes into my breaker strat. It's very hard to get used to but is much better than the 11 hp r-pump method. The first thing you should try to practice is dragging boos down to the ground, the motion is nearly identical and it's a very useful skill to have as it makes it far easier to one cycle the 150hp boos. Hold the c-stick up and walk backwards away from the boo, but don't move too far as you'll get extra cackles. It's awkward at first to time your r-pumps while using the c-stick but you get used to it pretty quickly. You'll notice that the boo can only be moved during the 2nd half of his cackle. There's two distinct parts of the cackle sound, and you want to time it so that you're moving him during the 2nd part. This works especially well at the start of the boo suckup, when your vacuum first touches it. Practice that until you're comfortable with the motion and with lowering its height on a whim. Next up is the hard part of dragging the boo laterally. I try to stand down-right of the boo while moving right and left. Do the same motion as before, but this time much more forcefully. Keep repeating this motion: R-pump, back up during the second half of the cackle, move forward again and start the next r-pump. It's a very quick back and forth motion. It then gets more complicated as you now have to control the height of the boo while simultaneously doing this. Just as the boo can be dragged down with c-stick, holding down on c-stick can also drag him upwards. You need to continue the back and forth on the control stick while adjusting height with c-stick to keep the boo at around Luigi's head level. This took me weeks of practice to get good at, but I can consistently one cycle breaker boo even from the center of the room with an extra cackle. With as much as 3 extra cackles if he charges into the corner. Hope it helps, feel free to hit me up on Discord if you need anything else
