-1 WARP-

As a reminder to those who want to run this category (or those who are too lazy to read the rules), you can only use 1 warp cannon, while other secret exits are freely allowed. The fastest cannon is the one accessed by the 1-3 Secret Exit.

If you want backup propellers during your run, the mushroom houses in Worlds 1, 5, and 6 guarantee at least 1 propeller suit and the one in World 7 guarantees 2. Visiting these is useful [Patterns listed here: https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/wii/960544-new-super-mario-bros-wii/map/6629?raw=1] in case you take damage and the next backup propeller is several stages away. This is recommended to players starting with this category or any longer category that visits multiple worlds, although 1 Warp is a shorter category that shouldn’t rely on visiting mushroom houses as much as longer categories that visit more houses with better patterns like Cannonless or 100%.

1-1 (Grab Propeller Suit) 1-2 1-3 Secret Exit Cannon

At this point, the route basically becomes the 2nd half of the cannonless route.

5-1 5-2 / 5-3

• 5-3 can be up to 5 seconds faster [depends on strats that you use] but significantly harder. Additionally, it has a singular backup propeller that is in a roulette block, in case you don't want to have to reset.*

5-Fortress 5-4 5-Ghost House

If the number of times you have died before this point if either 0 or 3, the vines will block your way to 5-Castle. If they do block your path, it is fastest to go int 5-5 and intentionally die at the start. Once the vines do not block off access to 5-Castle, proceed.

5-Castle (Backup propellers exist here)

6-1 6-3 6-Fortress 6-5 Secret Exit 6-Castle 6-Airship

• It is important that you have propeller suit entering 6-Airship, because it is used to speed up the second Bowser Jr. fight significantly by simply not boarding the clown car and simply fight him similarly to the fight in World 4. *

7-1 (Backup propellers exist in here, 7-2, and 7-3) 7-2 7-3 7-Fortress Secret Exit 7-6 7-Castle Secret Entrance

8-1 (damage boost x2) 8-2 Secret Exit 8-7 (reobtain mushroom) 8-Airship (reobtain propeller suit) 8-Castle
