  1. Buffered Bootcamp FAQ:
  2. - What is the Bufferless Bootcamp?
  3. Basically for the next set of runs I will be doing run where I force myself to do bufferless KTs rather than Buffered ones. This has helped me in the past to really cement certain strats into my runs.
  4.  
  5. - Bufferless KTs? What are Buffered KTs then?
  6. When doing KTs you can pause buffer a frame after switching the KT to see if you got the input right. This helps make KTs less risky to do since you won't lose a lot of height when failing one. So when you're not very certain about the consistency of your KTs, this is very helpful!

  8. - If Buffered is so nice, why do Bufferless?
  9. Buffering KTs takes a whole pause and unpause to complete, taking about 0.8s to do so. Now this doesn't sound like much, but in an average NG+ run you do at least 100 KTs and maybe even 200. We haven't counted the current route, but the old NG+ any% route took about 150 KTs to complete. Multiply the two together and you will save close to 2 minutes of time, just by not buffering the KTs.

  11. - Awesome! But why switch to Bufferless now?
  12. Recently we found out that SSD makes KTs a whole lot more consistent, to the point where Bufferless is actually quite easy to do. Also I just had a week of vacation, so I'm probably a little bit rusty. These two factors combine to make this the perfect time to switch to doing Bufferless and get that sweet sweet time save!
