Target Test 5 Cannon Throw Route

United States

Hello all three of us that cares about Target Test All Characters. While Gooby was hacking away at Target Test 4, I routed through Target Test 5. The current trick we are following is what I am deeming the "Cannon Throw" route. There are currently 20 characters that can throw the beginning cannon and hit the top left target, and fall and hit the bottom left target. This significantly shortens TT5 runs, changing from an average of 24-25 seconds to 17-18 seconds.

Also note that so far we have yet to find a difference from Brawl and Project M for this. So this is why I am including it here.

Here is the list: Mario Luigi Kirby Fox Game & Watch Diddy Kong Falco Squirtle Ivysaur Ice Climbers Lucario Ness Sonic Wario Toon Link Rob Olimar Lucas Charizard* Ganon*

*Charizard and Ganon have to do a slide throw in order to make the cannon go all the way to the target.

Note there may be more, but this is the list I have so far found. Feel free to add. For the rest of the characters, the best strat so far is to use your cannon to shoot the top left target, then your last target would be the bottom left.

Wario is a great example of this, so I will link it here:

Actually you can snipe that target to the left with the cannon shot and then drop down down to get the remaining 2 targets on the left. All characters can do this so you can get an average of like 17-20 seconds for all characters. I'll post a video soon.

(Edit) Forgot I had a video on hand. This is no way the optimal run I accidentally turned around. If I did it better I could of saved like 3ish seconds.
