Originally, the best way to get to the top of the level was to triple jump off of the slope in the corner next to the sleeping piranha plant. It was discovered that a [[Glitchy Wall Kick]] could be used to get on to the ramp, allowing Mario to quickly climb up and maintain speed. In late 2010, it was found that it’s faster to slide across the slope beside the ramp, climb up the brown slope, and from the falling bridge wall kick off of the wall there.

Chip off Whomp's Block is the first mission of Whomp's Fortress. To complete it, Mario must go to the top of the fortress and defeat King Whomp. This is done by ground pounding on the back of King Whomp 3 times. This can be done quickly by jumping and ground pounding as he faceplants. This means mario will go through King Whomp and end up on top, where the ground pound will land on him.
A Button Challenge
Fighting King Whomp
This level can be done without pressing A. Mario first brings a cork box to the top of the level. The box is brought onto the elevator by squeezing mario between the elevator and the small whomp. Mario then dive recovers off the small whomp, and regrabs the box as it falls off the elevator, transporting it to the top. Mario then heads to the arrow platform and collects coins, leaving 4 there. This will be useful for cloning the star. Mario ground pounds under the elevator to get the first 2 hits on King Whomp.
Cloning The Star
The star is too high to be collected by a dive recover, so instead, Mario clones the star. He first lets King Whomp break the box, and Mario picks up the box as it breaks, holding a fake cork box. Mario loads the 4 coins still on the arrow platform so that he is holding the correct vacant object slot, then uses King Whomp to hold the object hands free. Mario falls onto the elevator. With his object hands free, he can ground pound. Mario grinds on the elevator to keep the object hands free, and ground pounds King Whomp for a third time, killing him. The star takes the vacant object slot in Mario's hands, allowing him to clone it.
