All my old vids are mirrored unfortunately due to how they were recorded. I’d recommend just… not watching them

Appreciate it, friend

I’m sorry, I’d just like to clarify your question. Are you asking on what other stages this specific ledgetrap can be done? What other opportunities it would be viable to try it? Or other ledgetrapping options that Isabelle has in general?

@@PalmFire_ ohh amm 2 aspects, what other stages this specific ledgetrap can be done? and other ledgetrapping options that Isabelle has in general

I understand. To answer the first question… This method in particular only works on Hollow Bastion due to the platform position and stage size. It happens to fit perfectly for rod to make this doable. Not even Smashville works as replacement because of the size and how rod interacts with the ledge there. However, this video seemed to motivate some players, particularly Whiz, to look into rod a bit more. He found that standing on the far edge of a Battlefield/SBF platform and doing a tilt rod toward the ledge lets it hang in such a way that pulling up and down allows the hitbox to almost never go inactive. This makes it a nice 2-framing trick, though it so far has not appeared as consistent as we’d like. To answer the second question… I’d recommend checking the video that Lath has on the topic: ruclips.net/video/UL1ypN6GulY/видео.html Or, even better, join the Isabelle Character Discord and check the #advantage-state-resources channel. Hope this helps you out!

@@PalmFire_ Thank you very much! I am starting to delve into this character because I want to play it competitively in my area. I will take all this into account to improve. Do you maybe have any recommendations for someone who wants to improve competitively?

As far as it goes for improving with Isabelle specifically, I will once again advocate for the Isabelle Character Discord since it is one of the most organized and resource-heavy character discords out there in my opinion. I often feel that I only know as much as I do because I've been a member of that discord for a good while. Otherwise, there are 2 basics that I recommend getting a feel for with Isabelle. Firstly, go into training mode and practice launching slingshots (the attack, not the tech. It feels so stupid that I need to clarify). Full hop slingshots, short hop slingshots, and landing slingshots most importantly. The reason why this is important is because Isabelle's neutral is a lot of zoning and making sure the opponent does not get so close. Be sure to practice this until you feel like you can perform them all and switch between them naturally. Secondly, in real games, try to keep track of when your opponent likes to shield. You want to get grabs, but not whiff grabs. Grabs lead to Isabelle's amazing advantage state and of course can eventually just kill outright with her strong back throw at high enough percent. And as just general advice, try watching top sets of high-level players. You might be able to take note of some things that they do and apply it to your own gameplay. In fact, try saving replays of games that you've lost. Reviewing those games to see what you could have done better is another good method of improvement. That's about all I think I'd be able to offer for you here. The Isabelle Discord may be able to answer more Isabelle-specific questions in #isa-help-desk, so don't be afraid to join and ask anything you'd want to know!

Same. Dunno why this was recommended to me but I like it

Interesting. Maybe you’ve watched some other video of mine and now RUclips thinks you’re a fan? Seems like something they do

No! Because that only works when checking objects and npc’s. So you wouldn’t be able to do it out in the open like I’ve done several times in the video. In addition, the menu forces cutscene triggers to hold until the menu closes. But the trigger does not activate when a text box has been closed. By opening a text box (Telepathy) from the menu, we get the best effect of both of these and can walk right through cutscene triggers!

I do not understand this joke but I am sure it is funny

​​@@PalmFire_ undertale has a very useful bug where using an item that freezes you after 1 frame, gives you a single free step. by doing this, you can get into a cutscene that blocks movement, and free yourself by closing the previously mentioned item. this way, you can move freely between cutscenes. i hope my explanation was good enough lol

Definitely helped make it clear. It does sound like a very similar bug if that’s the case

In complete fairness, entering a battle with text open is not intended. Feels to me like instead of patching Battle Travel outright they just kinda band-aided it. Which is kinda fine in this case. This is only a demo. It’s very possible this will be fully fixed in the final game. But I have suspicions that they might apply another band-aid fix. Reason being that the devs are quite happy about a potential speedrunning scene. So if there ends up being a Battle Travel method in the final game that isn’t so easy to do. It may just be left in for us

Most likely not coming back. I just stream games occasionally and do speedruns now. Maybe I’ll stream the rest someday but definitely not a priority for me. If you’re interested though, my other channels are much more active than this one

My house has an intercom system set up in all of its rooms. Easier communication for everyone. It’s annoying for me when I try to record or stream though lol

Do you make the same comment for every No Out of Bounds speedrun out there?

We’re going to see very soon!

You can move in the overworld during the battle if you enter it with it open!

still a great game tho

Bugs are being fixed as we speak! Though speedrun stuff is obviously not top priority to fix

Out of Bounds. There have been some discoveries to get out of bounds, but nothing has been found (yet) that would prove useful for a speedrun. I have it in the title in case something does come up

That’s what I’m thinking but haven’t tested it yet. If it is the case, I’d label this run invalid and try for another one very soon. Also please beat this

@@PalmFire_ i got a 14:57. I couldnt tell exactly where you started time, this run i was starting time when you first get control over ninten. If we want to start time on the "yep" in the menus after naming everyone my run would be like a 15:04. ruclips.net/video/AAx4ljK2Va8/видео.html

Selecting “Yep” was where I started time, myself. But I think first movement is fine as well. I don’t think it’s anything to take too seriously since it’s just a demo lol

It is. This method is inconsistent as, based on your ping, you could be respawned multiple times and it simply won't work. What we do now is wait to respawn at the start of the world and then drop down to go back to Maytown, since any method of returning to Maytown works with the wrong warp. Here's the video example: ruclips.net/video/LdJ1IxLb4pk/видео.html This run also has more up-to-date tricks, so I'd recommend you watch it.

​@@PalmFire_ ooh i see, i'm having a lot of trouble getting the new dilly donka warp to work too, but i'll keep trying! thanks for the assist :)

Still having trouble? You might need to explain your route to me then because I'm confused why it wouldn't work in this case. As long as you get the lost item before doing the ww it should work.

@@PalmFire_ that makes more sense, i tried it again after getting the lost item and it worked! i initially just got 7 stars and then immediately tried the ww in world 4

Okay yeah I thought that might be the case. Good luck on the runs and don't be afraid to come back with any more questions.

HI BORNZE

Probably never going to be the case. They're pretty much just a backup if you manage to lose your box or they don't spawn

Are you coming back?

Have not. Wanna talk about it on Discord?

I wouldn’t disagree. I find it a lot more fun to go for high scores with the low tiers rather than the high tiers. Mona’s main problem in Friendless Battle isn’t her movement, but her horrible damage. It is possible to chain hits together on boomerang but it’s really hard.

I never finished this game. Turns out I don’t actually enjoy playing it. I stopped at world 3 so I can’t answer your question. I don’t care about this video or improving it.
