>>12005944Let me break it down the "record". Here I use the timer shown on screen for reference:
00:11 textbook play for looting desert temple.
03:10 bad village loot order that cost her 3 minutes but not a big deal in a 2 hour run. Should have get 3 wood logs before entering village but saved by picking deadbush. The fact that she said the pro runner knows the village order shows her capability to improve on those tiny thing
10:30 she is the only holo able to do the lava portal trick
12:00 bad bastion routing but honestly nothing to blame with. Bastion is the most important part of MC speedrunning and single handedly makes 1.16.1 the only viable version to play. When Fubuki did her 1.17 run, she ignored bastion. Fauna tried her best to loot bastion within her knowledge.
14:15 textbook play to get rid of hoglin on the way
22:48 leaving bastion. At this point I thought she will get a sub-hour by throwing pearls.
24:00 good play using pie chart and altering render distance to locate fortress (or treasure bastion if unfortune). I bet there's only 0.5% audience actually understood what Fauna was doing
29:33 blunder play while going to fortress. The fortress is just 20 render distance away from where she started. She traveled to a different fortress 1000 blocks away at the 45 minutes mark. It costed her 2 potions and probably the worst play in the run. Textbook play will be pearling into lava, swim up, look around, and pearl again. Textbook play with average mechanic will guarantee a 33 minute mark fortress enter, while still having 2 fire potion for blaze fight.
49:00 bad blaze fight. She seems unaware with the blaze fireball animation. She could have used jump crit 3 times to kill more blaze in a fireball cycle. Some holo will do a better job fighting blazes than her. Also if she is uncomfortable with her mechanics, she could have crafted respawn anchor in the fortress so she would not lost her progress.
1:08:00 triangulation to estimate the stronghold location. It is not executed well honestly but she get the point. It saved a lot of eye that might break. Not pearling here costs her 10 minutes.
1:36:00 textbook play on locating the stronghold chunk and digging the correct coordinates that will always put her in the middle of the starter staircase.
1:39:43 enter end. She tried to mimic top runner to do one cycle but it is actually more complicated than it looks.
To execute a good dragon split, runner has to understand:
1. set up a obsidian on the perch pillar in either north-south direction
2. stand in either north or south direction far
3. watch dragon perch animation, pearl into the pillar when dragon turn his head towards the perching pillar
4. time the bed when the dragon head hitbox is right above the bed.
5. Click the first 1-2 pixel of the bed to deal max damage
I think Fauna will able to achieve sub-30 minutes by February if she keep playing weekly
