New Category
2 years ago

I would like to submit a new type of run. From A0 to A20 speedrun.

United States

Generally, our policy has been to only add new categories once they generate sufficient interest and runners, in order to prevent the leaderboard from being cluttered with miscellaneous categories containing 0-1 runs. The latest category we added was a 4-character option for Any% and A20, based on a community vote, yet there have still been relatively few submissions. I don't expect an A0 to A20 speedrun would have sufficient community interest, though we do encourage people to try out categories and rules that they find fun, even if they aren't represented here.

For a A0 to A20 speedrun, what do you think the rules should be? The last time this sort of category was specifically run, to my knowledge, was Baalorlord, who did it once with each character, with the following rules (if I remember them correctly):

  • Start with a fresh save file
  • (Unlock the character) and then win once on each ascension level 0 to 20 (21 wins)
  • All glitches are allowed

But some additional questions might be:

  • Does it need to be done in one session?
  • Do you need to win with every character? (There is a way to unlock the next ascension without winning)
  • Do you need to start with a fresh save file?
