Nonstop 70 Star

Category Rules[edit | edit source]

• All forms of BLJ are banned.
• All forms of MIPS Clip are banned.
• Any other means of bypassing star door requirements is banned.

Suggested Routes [edit | edit source]

Both routes save one basement stage for later in order to collect the second Mips star. Skipping BBH and doing SSL late can save around 15 seconds or so, but is harder.

• Beginner: HMC Late (with BBH)
• Advanced: SSL Late (skip BBH)
