If you're attempting a world record for Wily Machine II, an important part of it will be to get to the boss as soon as possible. Unlike the other bosses, however, you can actually control how much time it takes to reach the boss, since there isn't really any stage before it. In solo runs, getting to the boss teleporter is fairly easy, but to optimize time, there are some very simple movement options to get there as fast as possible. For characters with a slide and normal speed, it's fastest to slide from your starting point, and hold left the whole time. You'll move as fast as possible and land on the block closest to the teleporter. From there, just slide and jump to the teleporter. For heavies like Air Man and Wood Man without a slide, the fastest option is to turn and wavedash towards the teleporter as fast as possible. Due to Wood Man's speed, however, he will need to move forward a bit before wavedashing, or he will lose his wavedash momentum by the time he leaves the starting platform. For Hot Man, it's similar to normal character strats. Do a slide from his starting point to move as fast as possible. However, because Hot Man is so much slower than all the other characters, he will need to perform a frame perfect jump at the very end of the platform. Otherwise, he'll land on the bottom block and waste time on several jumps. Since he's so slow, it's recommended that he slide on the block before the teleporter. Finally, Quick Man. Since he's the fastest, sliding isn't necessary, unless only a few frames need to be saved. Thanks to Quick Man's speed, he can actually jump directly from the starting platform to the teleporter platform. As long as he jumps right at the very end of the platform, Quick Man can clear all the way to the teleporter, allowing him to potentially enter the fight in about 1 second.
