T-Rage;Smack a Lava Bud (Do Not Block)
Bounce; Outta Sight

Probably want to save in ch4 before lantern ghost even with a ls b/c of pyro guy
SAVE BEFORE CHAP 4 LZS (again you can take the card, but it wastes 5 min)
If you have to bake the cake in an emergency:
Cake:   2nd from left, eggs, talk to twink
        far left, far right, talk to twink
        bake for 30 seconds
        2nd from right, 3rd from right, talk to twink
In ch2 if you lost a ls in ch4 you can pick up a another one
To get it, when you exit dry dry outpost, go down one and then go down and jump on top of the coin block to reveal the life shroom
SAVE BEFORE CH2 LZS (and if you want, b4 tutankoopa) YOU NEED TO GET THIS ONE TO KEEP STARSTORM
save in 6 probably before laki, def before huff
ch 7 is pretty free but you can save before ck if you want
ch 8 save before flood room if doing new flood room stuff
Save before final bowser (obviously)
If you miss a block, you can refresh after the life shroom loss and hope he doesnt heal
you can prob win if he does heal, but it might take a while, just abuse outta sight and mega rush damage
