Didn't hear anything about this, so here it goes. When the Thwomp almost starts his attack, crouch. Then when he goes in about a 90° angle Back-flip. You will teleport over the Thwomp and then you're free to attack the bastard. Pretty easy, i think with good timing it could be used in speedruns. By the way, i never watched any Super Mario 64 speedrun so this might be an old trick or something like that. Cheers!
Yep, that's one of the standard moves. The tricker part of the Twomp fight is to get the last ground pound just where the star is, and minimalize the walking distance of Twomp as this takes some time.
We would like to announce that VC and EMU subcategories are now active on the Stage RTA leaderboards (under "Levels"). Stage RTA involves collecting all the stars in a given stage including the 100 coin star. Timing starts on star select and ends upon collecting the final star. You are allowed to us
