* Unavoidable: | |||
** in [[The Castle]]: to go to [[Hazy Maze Cave]] 0x<ref>[https://youtu.be/qCQTDlo1JdM "Enter Hazy Maze Cave without Pressing A" by Tyler Kehne]</ref> | |||
** in [[Tick Tock Clock|TTC]]: to get to the highest walkway 0x in Stomp on the Thwomp<ref><nowiki>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=98EpPsaAF_k</nowiki></ref> | |||
* Faster | |||
** in [[Whomp's Fortress|WF]]: to get on the Bullet Bill Block in To the Top of the Fortress 0x<ref><nowiki>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iVbBjf5s2ag</nowiki></ref> (without SDC but slower strat: using a platform release displacement<ref><nowiki>https://youtu.be/dfYh5Yqk658?si=jQyy3WaoU_-ifmk3</nowiki></ref>) | |||
** in [[Cool, Cool Mountain|CCM]]: to collect the 100 coin star in the slide (so that we can immediatelly after that collect the star for Big Penguin Race). This one doesn't look like it uses SDC, but the 100 coin star is on the slide, where Mario cannot perform a dive recover, so he slides off the edge, does a ground pound (to raise height). Without SDC, he would fall down to the death barrier<ref><nowiki>https://youtu.be/P26RIap6fuA?si=BVWiGvjRUrNZv8WB</nowiki></ref> (without SDC but slower strat: exit the slide before the 100th coin, and collect it outside) | |||
** in [[Big Boo's Haunt|BBH]]: along with a Crazy box and three Scuttlebugs to reach the mansion roof in Big Boo's Balcony 0x<ref><nowiki>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CLksdecIacA</nowiki></ref> (without SDC but slower strat: raise scuttlebugs a bit differently (ether similar for crazy box<ref><nowiki>https://youtu.be/xd9OFhnyiP8?si=d-pPxfoDmUev2Ogf</nowiki></ref>, or inside<ref><nowiki>https://youtu.be/OLmxy5cYfdk?si=dw-gy55rMGXNUKLd</nowiki></ref>) | |||
There are some previous strategies, now obsolete (due to time save), for example to reach the [[Tiny-Huge Island|THI]] mainland<ref>[https://youtu.be/eCCVpEK2YbQ "THI To Mainland!" by UncommentatedPannen]</ref>. | |||
