Kirby is known to use his down special, Stone, in front of the player, and will not stop if he lands on blocks that his Stone breaks.Bowser is known to have a low-percentage chance of falling through the center of the stage after the Rotating Blocks are broken.This is manipulated here by putting Luigi in range of Marth's up special, Dolphin Slash, out of range of the stage.Marth will rarely chase the player offstage with an attack and be unable to recover.This is feasible for (and indeed, the tool was developed for) RTA runs, as Melee's RNG seed does not iterate over time while in menus and the current seed (a 32-bit integer) can be uniquely determined by random selecting at least 9 characters in a row on any Character Select Screen. The RNG manipulation tool provided a route which involved traveling to a specific RNG seed (by random selecting characters on the Classic mode Character Select Screen), re-rolling the list of All-Star characters four times, and traveling to another seed (again with random select). The RNG manipulation tool can check not only the default ID list, but also lists after re-rolling, to minimize the time required to achieve a satisfactory lineup. When booting up Melee, each character is given a default ID when entering All-Star mode, not only is the list of characters set, but also the list of IDs is randomized for future All-Star rolls. I requested that Mothrayas make a character unlock movie in PAL in support of a future video I'd like to submit for Melee's Break The Targets (where PAL is optimal due to those version differences), and I didn't want to ask for a second video for NTSC just for this. PAL vs NTSC is largely immaterial for this run, though character-specific version differences would cause a desync.The ability to riff off the well-known meme of "Luigi wins by doing absolutely nothing" (though in this case, it's unfortunately limited to "nothing to his opponents").Low traction, which gives him high horizontal ground speed while wavedashing with TAS-perfect angles.TAS mashing in his moveset (his down special, Luigi Cyclone, gains more vertical distance the faster the user mashes the B button - up to 30 Hz - for 0.75 seconds).RNG in his moveset (his side special, Green Missile, has a 1/8 chance of explosive speed due to a misfire, allowing it to reliably travel long distances in TAS).Character choice was mostly immaterial, but Luigi does have a few benefits: Luigi was the character chosen for this video.
