	The star can be done in 0 A presses. The difficult part was getting onto the first tower platform, which was too high for an easy method. The original method of getting onto the bottom platform was rather complex.		The star can be done TAS in 0 A presses. The TAS WR does this star with the 100 coin star. The difficult part was getting onto the first tower platform, which was too high for an easy method. The original method of getting onto the bottom platform was rather complex.

	=== ~~Setup~~ ===		The reason for collecting the 100 coin star with this star is because a huge time save which involves getting on top of the bullet bill blaster requires a [[Star Dance Clip\|star dance clip]]. Before entering the course, Mario uses the penguin in [[CCM]] to set a [[HOLP]]. Mario begins by going around the course, collecting coins. Because the rotating bridge is in a bad position when Mario approaches it, the [[Coin\|coins]] there can't be collected as it is too slow. Instead, Mario collects the [[Coin Spawner\|coin ring]] above the [[Shoot Into the Wild Blue]] star and bounces down with a slide kick onto the [[Blue Coin\|blue coin]] block.

			After reaching 99 coins, he dives from the rotating islands to the bottom of the course. This fall is just high enough to give him [[Fall Damage\|large fall damage]]. While performing a [[Pause Buffering\|pause buffered hitstun]], Mario throws a [[Cork Box\|cork box]] remotely, utilizing the preset HOLP. In an ideal situation, Mario would be able to get on the elevator by using a misalignment, but the misalignment only appears on one elevator, which is unfortunately in the air at the time Mario arrives. This makes the situation very tricky as there is a limited amount of time before the coin despawns. When Mario reaches the top of the elevator, he heads to the bullet bill blaster, and creates a [[100 Coin Star\|100 coin star]] from the Cork Box's [[Coin\|coins]], and does a star dance clip onto the top. Mario [[Grinding\|dive grinds]] to build speed, and does a dive recover to get onto the tower platforms. From here, he climbs up the tower and collects the star.

			===Original Strategy===
	Mario first enters Bob Omb Battlefield, and constructs a goomba staircase off the side of the mountain in order to set a HOLP at a precise spot. Mario then enters Whomp's Fortress, and collects 99 coins. He then throws a cork box using the hat in hand glitch. The box is released mid air and it lands on the base of the tower. Mario then can spawn a 100 coin star in a specific spot.

Mario then can spawn a 100 coin star in a specific spot.

	~~=== Getting On ===~~
	Mario takes a second cork box onto the top of the level. He then remotely releases it, and stores vertical speed on the elevator as it flips around. The box then pushes mario off, which activates his vertical speed, while at the same time giving Mario horizontal speed. Combined with a star dance clip, this is enough to bring mario to the top of the platform. From here, Mario can climb the tower and collect the star.

	~~=== Faster Strategy ===~~
	~~In late 2019, a faster way was discovered. This involved getting on top of the bullet bill blaster, and dive recovering on top of the bullet bill.~~
