The goal of the 16 Star category is to beat the game as quickly as possible using MIPS clipping to skip the 30 star door. Any form of BLJ (or technique other than MIPS clipping) to pass the 30 star door is not allowed. It's a great category for beginners as it is not very long and doesn't involve any tricks that are overly difficult.

Rules

  • Using any form of BLJ to skip the 30 star door is banned. (e.g. Side BLJ)
  • LBLJ is allowed
  • MIPS Clip is allowed

Notes

This guide is made for players with at least some sort of knowledge about the game’s mechanics. If you have just started running this game, I recommend watching both of Simply’s movement tutorials and Sean Raider's movement guide.

Easy Route

This is the most basic version of the "No LBLJ" 16 star route. It skips Bowser in the Dark World Reds, however it is strongly recommend to start practicing and implementing this in your runs sooner than later.

  1. Lakitu Skip
  2. Bob-omb Battlefield
  3. Whomp's Fortress
  4. Cool Cool Mountain
  5. Bowser in the Dark World (No Reds)
  6. Shifting Sand Land
  7. Lethal Lava Land
  8. Hazy Maze Cave
  9. MIPS Clip
  10. Dire, Dire Docks
  11. Bowser in the Fire Sea (No Reds)
  12. BLJ's
  13. Bowser in the Sky (No Reds)

Medium Route

This route is potentially ~8 seconds faster than the Easy Route. It is essentially the same as the previous route, except Dark World Reds replaces one of the slower stars in Hazy Maze Cave. Also listed are optional tweaks to the route that save time but considerably increase the difficulty, these are generally recommended only to people that are running the No LBLJ 16 star category extension for top times, otherwise see the one of the LBLJ routes.

  1. Bob-omb Battlefield
  2. Whomp's Fortress
  3. Cool Cool Mountain
  4. Bowser in the Dark World (Reds)
  5. Shifting Sand Land
  6. Lethal Lava Land
  7. HMC Toad
  8. Hazy Maze Cave
  9. MIPS Clip
  10. Dire, Dire Docks
  11. Bowser in the Fire Sea (No Reds)
  12. BLJ's
  13. Bowser in the Sky (No Reds)

Hard Route #1 (LBLJ)

This route is potentially ~30 seconds faster than the Medium Route. It is not recommended for new players

  1. Lobby Backwards Long Jump
  2. Bowser in the Dark World (Reds)
  3. Whomp's Fortress
  4. Shifting Sand Land
  5. Lethal Lava Land
  6. Haze Maze Cave
  7. MIPS Clip
  8. Dire, Dire Docks
  9. Bowser in the Fire Sea (No Reds)
  10. BLJ's
  11. Bowser in the Sky (No Reds)

Hard Route #2 (LBLJ)

This route is potentially ~5 seconds faster than Hard Route #1 (LBLJ), but only if you do Pillarless.

  1. Lobby Backwards Long Jump
  2. Bowser in the Dark World (Reds)
  3. Whomp's Fortress
  4. Shifting Sand Land
  5. Lethal Lava Land
  6. Haze Maze Cave
  7. MIPS Clip
  8. Dire, Dire Docks
  9. Bowser in the Fire Sea (No Reds)
  10. BLJ's
  11. Bowser in the Sky (No Reds)
