A notable optimisation is the use of neutral joystick input during landing frames to avoid losing speed. It is not applicable to side BLJs though. | A notable optimisation is the use of neutral joystick input during landing frames to avoid losing speed. It is not applicable to side BLJs though. | ||

Ceiling BLJ utilises either a low ceiling or an exposed ceiling. A ceiling both holds Mario in place and cancels his vertical speed. Mario must hit the ceiling on the first quarter-step, so he never moves off the floor. | Ceiling BLJ utilises either a low ceiling or an exposed ceiling.

It is often possible to hit the ceiling for 2 frames during the initial longjump to cancel Mario's vertical and horizontal speed, allowing to start the BLJ much faster. | It is often possible to hit the ceiling for 2 frames during the initial longjump to cancel Mario's vertical and horizontal speed, allowing to start the BLJ much faster. | ||

Input Direction Lua includes a speedkick function, but it only works properly in one version.

=== Buffered Kick === | === Buffered Kick === | ||
If you hold A either before the first frame that Mario is able to move, or, if landing from the air, before the landing action has started, then you can (while still holding A) press B to do a buffered kick. If starting from idle, this allows you to choose an arbitrary angle to kick with. Note: a jumpkick (where you press A and B on the same frame, or press B after A) does not allow you to choose an arbitrary angle from idle. | If you hold A either before the first frame that Mario is able to move, or, if landing from the air, before the landing action has started, then you can (while still holding A) press B to do a buffered kick.

When Mario is on the ground, pressing B will do a punch rather than a dive if the joystick magnitude is 48 or less. A must not be held, otherwise Mario will kick. | When Mario is on the ground, pressing B will do a punch rather than a dive if the joystick magnitude is 48 or less.

This is usually done on the first possible frame after landing, which preserves speed. It is not possible if landing from a longjump. It is also possible from braking, for example a C^ slide. | This is usually done on the first possible frame after landing, which preserves speed. It is not possible if landing from a longjump.

Grabbing a pole preserves sliding speed. It can be reactivated by touching a floor, which puts Mario in the idle action, then pressing Z and a direction on the joystick. | Grabbing a pole preserves sliding speed.

=== Death Star Glitch === | === Death Star Glitch === | ||
By touching OOB or the death barrier, Mario can initiate the death fade out before getting a star. The setup to do it may be longer than the single star time, but by doing a DSG we can avoid the star dance and the animation Mario does out of the painting and the save and quit, which is longer than Mario's animation he does when he dies. (His death animation also makes him face the painting, allowing for a punch cancel trick to be used for re-entry) | By touching OOB or the death barrier, Mario can initiate the death fade out before getting a star.
