In the [[A Button Challenge]], it takes 0 A presses to beat the level with or without the red coin star. Because this level originally took 10 A presses, it is by far the most improved single star in the ABC. The level can be beaten with or without a preset [[HOLP]], and is faster with that HOLP. However, both known methods of achieving this HOLP are not possible more than once without incurring additional A presses or using more time than they save. The HOLPless method is, notably, required to set the HOLP for [[Timed Jumps on Moving Bars]], which takes 1 A press instead of 2 due to that strategy<ref>[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FMA-zEznvMo "TTC Timed Jumps on Moving Bars 1x A Presses" by UncommentatedPannen]</ref>. | In the [[A Button Challenge]], it takes 0 A presses to beat the level with or without the red coin star.

The beginning of the level is the hardest part. It contains several subsequent platforms that are too high to get over without an A press and almost nothing to work with. Luckily, when the [[207 DR]] technique was discovered, which utilizes a [[misalignment]] to get extra height, all of the initial platforms except the last became passable. Then, a technique called the [[Chuckya Drop]] was discovered that uses manipulation to get [[Chuckya]] to fall from above<ref>[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uFjIARsegtA "BitS Beginning - 0x A Presses" by Tyler Kehne]</ref>. | The beginning of the level is the hardest part.

Mario crosses the elevator using the messed-up axle location as normal. When he passes the arrow platform, he uses [[Pause Buffered Hitstun]] from taking huge [[Fall Damage|fall damage]] to throw a fire clone at the HOLP, which is on top of a pole. There are two possible poles that can be used for this. The larger of the two requires bouncing on a nearby Goomba. Once done, simple Goomba bounces and messed-up axle location uses allow Mario to reach the pipe, which he enters using a [[Misalignment|207 DR]]. | Mario crosses the elevator using the messed-up axle location as normal.
