Minor Movement Techniques (MMT) Ruleset

Minor Movement Techniques

The purpose of this ruleset is to introduce new people to the basic, and most common movement techniques in the game (along with other misc basics), while still retaining the "puzzle-solving" aspect of randomizer, and to achieve a middle ground between the Accessible ruleset and the No Item Manip/Wrong Warp ruleset.
