In almost every instance, these variations are only faster if you do the most optimal strats for each star; hence, they are recommended only for people running the No LBLJ category extension for top times (i.e. sub 16 minutes). If you are simply looking to optimize your 16 star route for the main leaderboards, it is recommended to switch to an LBLJ route. | ||
