[H|AoB|YAVP] Another life in the fast lane (7m31s)
Zalminen:
It still requires quite a bit of luck, I just tried the same tactic on HMP 6 times and always got blasted or eaten during the first 3 levels....
And even further down although the AI sometimes moved when it could have shot allowing me to slip past or back to cover, it wasn't often enough to try doing it all the time. Luck with stairs usually played a lot bigger role than the AI.
tinyrodent:
I suck at speedrunning but tried this technique successfully with ITYTD for a 12 minute run. Then took several tries to even get started with HNTR. One problem is I keep missing the chained court like a dumbass... but this time managed to win it anyway. :) I did not find any invulnerability. Killed Bruiser Brothers with shotgun, Cyberdemon and AoD with a knife, then it was a piece of cake to finish.

Good run - I would also point out that I mean exactly what I said about stair running.
don't worry about the time measured in minutes, but compare turn count
my games are usually around 8000-9000 turns at all difficulties (no N! in this version). I literally take "the shortest path from stair to stair"
I'm either level 1 or 2 when I hit the bruisers and thats insta level. Cybie will give me 1 or 2 more levels and I might grab one more at the end for a usual level 5 finish.
The bruiser strategy is:
1) Still be CC zerked
2 ) trigger their wall and run diag NE and end up attacking from above the top bruiser while the bottom one friendly fires him for me.
