Easy-Normal: Not much to comment about these two runs other than I can save ~2m if I do this category again. Hard: PBed by over 4 minutes. I was not expecting that much time save coming from this run, but my skills and execution did not let me down :) Definitely very happy with this time! Super Hard: PBed by almost 6 minutes. This time, I was absolutely flabbergasted by my time save in this category given the fact that I missed quite a few very important AI Manipulations towards the end of this category. I can easily save another 3-4 minutes off my time in this category if I keep working at it! Very Hard: This is where it all came together! I am absolutely speechless by how things went in this difficulty! I came into this difficulty about 9 minutes ahead of my PB in the overall Easy-Very Hard category, and while there were a few fights that cost me a few minutes each, and Sanatos costing me almost 8 minutes, I still somehow managed to claw my way back and finish this difficulty over 10 minutes faster than I completed it previously! There is still quite a lot of time save available in this difficulty as well. I estimate if I get better manipulations and luck, I could shave over 20 minutes off my time still! Overall: I went into the Very Hard difficulty about 9 minutes ahead of my PB, and got very lucky throughout many of the fights to finish them fairly quickly. I did get a few AI Manipulations. The big time loss came at Sanatos, who ended up costing me almost 8 minutes. I still managed to prevail over the next three fights, beating them quickly and ending this category with a PB of over 21 MINUTES, and attaining a new WR! More to come!
